Just don't give up;

[For anyone nearby the library, you may want to be careful as you leave. Lying on her side, with her back facing the door, is an unconscious Namine. And judging by the long black wings attached to her back, it's probably pretty obvious who this future version is.]

[ooc: I am wayyy too easily enabled. but whatever. also if they try to turn her over, they should see her GIANT 9 MONTH PREGGO belly. l-lol, Happy Friday, Emoku.]

[Well she is the one who kept it a secret for five months. He sighs, pushing himself to his feet and offering her both hands to pull her up with.]

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[Takes his hands and stands, then, letting out a quiet 'oof'.]

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

...You okay?

[Still looks immensely worried, even if he's not happy about the situation.]

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

No, I'm pregnant.

[Frowns hard and lets go of his hands, just walking off. The way she does so is obviously not out of anger though, since she's trying to hide the tears streaming down her cheeks.]

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Stares after her for a moment, just a little surprised. But his expression quickly saddens, walking after her to catch up. And when he does, he'll be pulling her right into a hug. So there.]

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[And she just tries to push him away. Sorry, Emoku, she's hormonal.]

No, don't. I don't blame you for not wanting this. I don't want it either.

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Holds on to her, not letting go.]

Namine, I don't have a problem with the baby.

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[Stops struggling at that, looking up at him.]

Then what?

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Meets her gaze with an honest expression.]

...Seven years, and you don't trust me enough to tell me?

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

It's not that I don't trust you. I would trust you with my life...

[She just leans against him tiredly.]

I was afraid.

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Brings his arms around her.]

Of what?

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

Of everything! I don't know how to do this. A-And we've never even talked about having kids. I didn't want any... I-I was afraid you'd leave me.

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[That saddens him, mostly because he thought he'd made that clear already.]

...Maybe I haven't said it often enough.

[Pulls away just enough to Hold her face in his hands.]

I will always. love you. And nothing can change that. No pregnancy, nothing you or anyone else can do.

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[She cries a bit harder at that, but pulls him back close, pulling him into a kiss.]

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Just about melts into that kiss. It has been far too long since the last one.]

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, try going four months, buddy. She's staying in that kiss for a good long time.]

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[He'd really rather not. Just two was torture enough. After a good long while, he pulls away to look at her with a fond expression, gently wiping away any tears left.]

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[Smiles a bit, placing a hand over his, before a kick causes her to look down. Emoku may have felt that.]

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Yep, much to his surprise. At least he's taking this whole 'father' thing better than doctorku- so far, anyway.]

...Have you thought of any names yet?

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[She shrugs a little.]

I like a few... I wanted you to pick with me, though.

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Nods.]

We could look through a book or two in the library.

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[Nods a bit.]

Good idea.

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[Starts to head that way then.]

--Oh, and there's something you might be interested in looking at. I'll have to show you.

[sirenising.livejournal.com]

[Good thing they're right here by it!]

Oh?

[nightfallingly.livejournal.com]

[He's headed for his little study corner. There's a desk and a couple couches and the usual mess of books and papers. Specifically though, he's looking for a good-size box, probably just a wicker storage box or something. Since it's somewhat large, he's setting it on the floor by the couch where there's space for her to sit.]
