"She what!?" I hiss.
"She forged your signature and got herself transferred to squad one. Captain Kyorakou said he'd be by later to talk to you. She's...she's not doing so well." Yumichika says softly.
"It's been six weeks and it's just now been brought to my attention!?" I roar.
"Apparently she was so good at forging your signature that Captain Kyorakou didn't start figuring out that something was wrong until the Captain's meeting this morning when you asked if any progress had been made in finding her. He talked to her after the meeting and she came clean about what she did. His message says he's given her a lecture and Kotetsu has been told to come do an exam on her."
"What fuckin' time?"
"The exam? Two this afternoon."
I look at the clock and rush out the door. I'm beyond pissed. I thought she'd been taken by Mori or somethin'! Goddamn fuckin' sneaky ass bitch!
***Harmona POV***
My door slides open. "Harmona, you awake, kiddo?" Shunsui asks.
"Yeah." I answer softly.
"Uhm...well, Isane is here and so is Kenpachi."
At his name I start sobbing, prompting Shunsui to hurry to my side and hold me. "Shh. I told him what you told me. That it was in a fit of anger and you thought it was a prank. We've gotten all the paperwork filled out and you're back in squad eleven. Can they come see you?"
"No. He hates me now probably. I'm such a terrible person." I whimper.
"Trust me, that man doesn't hate you. If he did, he wouldn't be here and wouldn't take you back in his squad. Come on, kiddo. We really need to get you checked out, ok? Your behavior this past week is making me worry."
"The nightmares are bad again. I smell Mori everywhere I go. Even here." I whisper softly.
"Which is all the more reason you need to be with Kenpachi, baby. He won't let anything happen to you. I can't keep as good an eye on you as he can, since I'm now head captain with extra duties. Please, do this for me, kiddo."
I wipe my eyes and give him a small smile. "Ok, da...Sw-"
He hugs me tight. "Call me dad if you want. It would make me proud. Hell, I'll formally adopt you, if you want."
I start sobbing again. I've always wished Shunsui was my father since that night when I was six. He was always there for me when I needed help or a shield from Mori. Jushiro was too, of course, but with his illness he couldn't be on hand as much as I needed him. "Ok, dad. I think I'll be ok."
****Kenpachi POV****
"Don't be angry, Kenpachi. She was trying to teach you a lesson and it backfired. I don't really think she thought it through before she turned it in." Isane sighs.
"I'm not angry. She told Shunsui she did it because I told her if she wanted space to get it outside of my squad. As usual, she took that as a challenge. I just wish someone woulda fuckin' told me she was here in squad one. Six weeks missin', my men lookin' for her, no sign of her. My mind was in a dark fuckin' place for awhile, thinkin' Mori had her." I growl.
"Alright, you two. Come on. Zaraki...this is going to come as a shock. She's been really sick the past two weeks. Not sleeping and not really eating either. Nanao has been trying to get her to let the medics look at her but she refuses every time. I kinda forced her to agree. I'm worried to death about her, let alone the babies." Shunsui sighs.
I brush by him, ignorin' his words to tell me to calm down. I get in her room and stop dead. She looks worse than when she first came outta her wolf. Her back is to me but I can see it in the way her robe hangs off her shoulders. I swallow what little anger I had and walk closer before wrappin' my arms around her on reflex. She turns and puts her arms around me. My chest is instantly wet. "The hell you cryin' for?" I ask softly.
"I'm sorry." she says.
"Tch. I ain't mad." Her belly is swollen, though not very round yet. Somethin' tickles my gut. I can barely feel it but instinct tells me what it is. I smile a little and kiss the top of her head.
Isane coughs politely. "Can I do my exam? You can stay, Kenpachi. Harmona, I need you to lay down."
She does as she's told, layin' on her bed. I take her hand as Isane parts her robe. I hold in a curse. Her ribs are stickin' out far enough I could play a goddamn dance on em. Shunsui wasn't kiddin'. I look at her face. Her eyes are surrounded by shadows dark enough that it looks like someone hit her. Her skin is even more pale than it was the last time I saw her.
"Oh, Harmona!" Isane gasps.
She closes her eyes. "The nightmares are bad again....I've been too scared to eat." she says softly.
Shunsui kneels by the head of the bed. "You've got this bad habit of holding things in and not asking for help, sweetheart." he sighs.
I watch Isane squirt some kinda weird gel on Harmona's belly and pull a little computer lookin' thing closer before stickin' a weird lookin' stick on the swollen part of her belly. It's all a weird white then I see a tiny ass foot on the screen. "Is that...?"
Isane smiles. "Yeah. Let me take a look here....Ok, we'll call this one A." she mumbles. I see a face as she shifts the stick around. A tiny face...with Harmona's nose. The lips lift into a smile for a brief instant. "Looks good, guys! Skull looks to be the right size for this point in development. Aww...Harmona, do you want to hear the heart beat?"
"Please!?"
A soft swishin' noise comes outta the little computer. I've never seen my woman smile so big or her eyes widen like this. Her eyes are full of...wonder. Like a kid in a damn candy store. Isane laughs and moves the stick again. I see...legs and..."Is that what I think it is?"
"Yep. This one is most definitely a boy." Isane says, blushin' slightly.
"Good!" Harmona giggles.
"Now, how about the other one?" Shunsui asks.
Isane moves to the other baby and takes some measurements. "This one is looking great too, though a little smaller than your little guy." More swishin' noises, faster than before. "Heart sounds and looks great!" She moves between it's legs and giggles. "Well, that's perfect."
"What? I don't see anythin'."
"Exactly. It's a girl." I can't hide the smile. I can deal with girls. They're easy...boys however, I've never been around a baby boy before. That might be a little difficult. Harmona tightens her grip on my hand. She looks ready to cry all the sudden. Isane cleans her belly off and helps her sit up. "Ok, Harmona, you've lost entirely too much weight. Your body is giving all the nutrients to the babies instead of you from what little bit you are eating. I know you know that." Isane chides her gently.
"Don't worry. I'll handle it." I say before pullin' her up in my arms. Harmona rests her head on my shoulder. "Let's go home."
****Harmona POV****
He doesn't say anything on the way home, though I can tell he's thinking. When he enters the barracks with me the men stop what they're doing and crowd us. "Give her space. Yumichika, she needs food. I don't care what you bring her. Hell, make her a damn steak for all I care." he orders.
"Got it. Welcome home, Wolfie."
Zaraki goes home with me and sets me in the hammock, curling his body around mine. He places a possessive hand on my bump. "Tell me why." he orders softly.
"I was just so mad that day. You just didn't seem to trust me to take care of myself. You wouldn't let me do anything. I just...I was trying to teach you a lesson but it backfired. I forgot you can't feel reiatsu like everyone else. And my demon was...worse than usual. I'm sorry. I should've came and talked to you calmly."
"We both know your temper is a force to be reckoned with." he sighs. "You make me worry like this again, soon as these pups are outta your belly, I'm gunna kick your ass. I thought Mori had you."
"I...wasn't even thinking about that. I'm so sorry."
He starts rubbing my bump softly. "Boy and a girl, huh? That'll be fun."
"You actually want them now?" I ask softly.
"I wasn't happy at first. These past six weeks made me realize I was an ass about it. I'm not made to be a dad. Don't know the first damn thing about it but...I'll try. And at least you know I won't be like Mori. I don't believe in hurtin' a kid unless there's a damn good reason for it."
"If you tried, I'd kill you."
He chuckles. "Yeah, I know. Shunsui would too."
I yawn as he continues rubbing, only stopping every once in awhile when he feels the tiny kicks. I'm so tired I can barely hold my eyes open. As usual, his very presence comforts me. "I'm sorry I'm a pain." I mumble.
"Tch. I knew you would be. Females always are. But I don't give a shit. You're my woman."
"Love you too, ya jerk."
He starts rubbing again and I feel myself sinking into sleep...until the smell of hot beef hits my nose. "Wolfie, you're being spoiled. Not only did we leave it a little raw in the center like you enjoy, but the men put a lot of rice and mochi on your plate. If you don't eat, I will have your husband hold you and I will shove it down your throat." Yumichika says haughtily.
"Oooh, kinky." I giggle.
Zaraki's laughter is loud, as is Yumichika's outraged protest of my dirty minded concoctions. I've missed them. Zaraki helps me sit up so I can eat. And eat I do. Probably more than I should, but I feel safe now. Zaraki watches me, his hand never leaving my belly. So, the big guy has a soft spot after all. Maybe I can use that to my advantage later on. Yumichika grumbles at me the entire time but I finish the meal before handing the plate back. "Better?"
"Much. You have a lot of weight to gain back. It is now my personal mission to make sure you're eating." he grumps before turning and leaving.
I yawn again and lay back against Zaraki's chest. "I think that was the single most stupidest thing I've ever done. Remind me to think before I do things again."
"Hey, Wolf, think before you do stupid shit again." he teases. "You need to sleep. These dark circles worry me."
"Don't suppose you have time for a nap?"
He pulls me down again and goes back to rubbing my bump. "I got time for a nap and you're stuck with me right here. Go to sleep."
I close my eyes obediently. "You don't have to rub my belly all the time."
"Does it bother you?"
"No."
"Then get over it. I wanna rub it."
I giggle. "I think you'd enjoy it more if I rubbed it."
"What...you pervert. Go to sleep. You're in no shape for fuckin' right now."
"Yeah, probably not."
I focus on the sound of his heart and, before I know it, I'm sound asleep.
****Kenpachi POV****
I hold out some dried mango to Harmona. "Come on, prego pants. You're not tired already."
She groans and flops onto her back. "To hell with you. I can't do anymore. My fat belly is in the way."
"Well, twenty sit ups is pretty good, I guess." I chuckle. I know, without her belly bein' full of babies, she could do more, but I ain't gunna push her. She looks damn good right now, honestly. She's got her hakama on but, since she's hot, she's only in a sports bra, so her belly is in full view. She's about eight and a half months along now and looks ready to pop at any time. My earlier imaginin' of her belly bein' swollen with my babies is nothin' compared to this. "You want this?"
She holds her hand out and I help her sit up. "Gimme!" she says, snatchin' the fruit from my other hand. I chuckle and sit beside her, wrappin' my arm around her shoulder. She's covered in sweat but I've been easy on her lately with the work outs. I only do em to keep her for goin' stir crazy, really. Isane had told me durin' her last check up two weeks ago that keepin' Harmona limbered up will also help her body durin' labor. So, stretchin', goin' for walks and a few sit ups or squats here and there when she feels up to it.
"You're doin' good, Wolf. Proud of you." I tell her.
"I just want this to be over. I feel like Omeyeda looks." she grouches.
"Yeah, but you make it sexy."
She blushes and shivers. "Eew. You're not right in the head." I watch her belly as it jiggles. I see a foot, clear as day press right against her belly button and I reach out to tickle it. She grunts as it kicks my finger. "Stop it! It's hard enough to breathe without you encouraging them to abuse me."
I don't listen, of course, and tickle the foot again. "It's funny."
"Not funny when I need to pee again, you jerk."
I chuckle and get to my feet, grabbin' her hand to pull her up. As I do, she gasps in pain suddenly. "Shit!"
I stare at her, waitin' for her to recover. She does but looks pale. "You ok?"
"Yeah. I think. I need to go...oh god. Kenpachi, I think it's time." she gasps again.
I look down and see blood on the floor. I lift her in my arms and get outside. "Ikkaku, get a message to Isane. Now."
"Is it time?" he asks.
"Yeah."
"Alright. I got it."
I carry Harmona to the house and get her in the bathroom. She hobbles to the toilet and I help her get her hakama off. They're drenched, as are her panties. Blood is drippin' down her legs. I pull her panties off gently and help her sit. "You want me to run you a bath so you can clean up a bit before I take you to squad four?"
"Pachi...I think I should tell you uhm...I don't think we're going to squad four today. Isane is going to have to come here."
"Why?"
She looks at her feet. "I've been having contractions all day. They're too close together now. I wasn't paying as much attention as I should have during our work out."
I stare at her for a minute but bite my tongue. I've known her pain tolerance is high. I didn't know, however, that she'd be so fuckin' hard headed. "Woman, I'm gunna kick your ass."
She groans. "Go ahead and run a bath. Maybe it'll help a little."
As I turn I hear her groan again and I hear her either pissin' or her water breaks completely. I can't tell which but I smell the blood. "Well, this'll be a good story for em when they're older. Mom is too fuckin' hard headed to admit she's in labor so she goes to work out with dad and there you were born, kids." I tease.
"Shut up." she growls.
I turn the water off once the tub is filled half way, then turn to help her in it. She's wipin' herself clean and I growl. "Wolf, it won't matter. You're about to get a helluva lot dirtier."
She nods and I get her in the tub. Before I can stand she grabs my face and kisses me. "I love you. Happy birthday."
"My birthday was yesterday, knucklehead." I say, kissin' her back. "I'm gunna go send a message to get Isane here, ok? I'll be right back."
She nods. "Ok. I'll be ok for a few minutes."
I walk out and get on the porch. The men are waitin', some looking confused, others lookin' anxious. "She ok, Cap'n?" Ikkaku asks.
"Well, yeah and no. I need Isane here. That damn numbskull in there didn't tell me she was in labor all day and it's too late to get her to the infirmary now." I sigh.
"So...wait, she's gunna have the babies now?"
"Well, not right now but soon. I've got her in the bath right now but her water broke completely. She says her contractions are too close together."
"Sir, I'll get a message out. Is there anything else you need us to do?" Yumichika says seriously.
"Not right now, no...well, actually...get a message to Shunsui. He'll wanna know. And Renji, since she unofficially adopted him."
The men nod and scatter. Yumichika speaks a message to a hell moth and sets it loose before turning to me. "Are you holding up alright?"
I nod. "I'm fine. Do me a favor and stay here on the porch. I gotta get back-"
She screams and my stomach drops. I turn and run back to the bathroom. The water is a little bloody and she looks terrified. I drop to my knees beside her. "You're ok. Shh." I say, kissin' her.
"Pachi...I need to push. Okami is trying to help as much as he can but my body is screaming at me to push." she whimpers.
"Then do it. I'm right here with you."
"I need held. I'm so scared." she cries.
I sigh but strip my uniform off, leavin' my boxers on before gettin' in the tub with her and wrappin' my arms around her. "I'm here. Do what you need to do, Wolf. I'll be right here with you."
"I love you."
"Love you too. I've got Yumichika in the door on the porch. Let me hollar at him so he knows what's goin' on." I cover her ears. "Yumichika!"
"Yes, sir?" I hear him yell from the bedroom door.
"She says she needs to push so there's gunna be a lotta screamin'. I'm in the tub with her. If Isane shows up, get her in here."
"Got it!"
I feel Harmona tense and grab my hands tightly. I move them from her ears and put em on her belly and rub. She's seemed to calm down when I do this the past couple weeks. "Ready when you are, Wolf. Do what you gotta do."
"I can't do this!" she cries.
"Yes, you can. You got this, Wolf. You're a stong woman. You can do this." I feel her move her hand from mine and watch her put it between her legs. Her other one tightens on my hand again as another contraction hits. She screams as she pushes and the water gets darker. I don't stop rubbin' her belly, not even when Isane shows up. Thank fuck for small miracles. I have no fuckin' clue what I'm doin'...
***Harmona POV***
I'm exhausted. The cries of my babies let me know they're ok. Isane has me hold them while Zaraki gets out of the tub and dries off. "Harmona, I need to get you moved so I can check for tearing, ok? Would you let me take them to you and Zaraki's room so Hanataro can get them cleaned up ad weighed, please?"
I hold them tighter to me for a moment but a look from Zaraki silences my protest. She takes my daughter first and then my son, carrying them to our room. I hear her tell him that my son was first so his measurements are to come first. Zaraki kneels down to kiss me softly. "I know you're hurtin' pretty bad right now but otherwise, are you alright?"
"I think. I'm just so tired." I sigh, returning his kiss.
"I know. You did good, Wolf. I'm proud of you."
"Alright, Captain. I need you to hold a towel. I'll help her stand then you can carry her into the bedroom for me, ok?" Isane says, giving me a wan smile. Zaraki kisses me again before getting to his feet. He holds a towel at the ready before Isane helps me stand before Zaraki wraps the towel around me and lifts me into his arms. He follows Isane from the bathroom. Yumichika is with Hanataro, keeping an eagle eye on the kids. Zaraki lays me on the bed and kisses me again softly. I feel Isane part my legs gently. "Hanataro, I need some gauze please."
The boy hands it to her shyly, keeping his head turned. She gently cleans me up. "No tears. That's great. How you feeling, sweetie?"
"I'm tired." I mumble.
"Yeah, I bet. Captain Zaraki, she'll need rest and help for a few days. She's going to be really sore. No sex for six weeks at least and I'm demanding she get on birth control!"
"Yeah yeah, whatever." he growls.
"Oh, Captain! She's got your eyes!" Yumichika squeals in a very non-manly manner, making me smile. "They're so pretty!"
I see Zaraki blush a little but he doesn't reply.
"Captain, the boy is six pounds and two ounces. Eighteen inches. Health seems very good. He's screaming the louder of the two." Hanataro laughs softly.
"Good. And the girl?"
"She's small but seems pretty healthy too. Five pounds, ten ounces and....also eighteen inches."
"And a gorgeous head of black hair! Captain, you may be an ugly brute but you sure do make pretty babies." Yumichika gushes.
"Shut the hell up."
"Good. Harmona, you ok?" Isane asks.
I nod. "Wolfie is tired."
Isane stands and nods. "Well, all three of you seem healthy. I'd like to give you all a check up in a week, ok? For now, Hanataro, let's give them some peace and quiet. Congratulations, both of you."
They leave, leaving me with Yumichika and Zaraki. "Captain...congratulations, sir." Yumichika says quietly before sitting beside me on the bed. "Wolf, I'm so proud of you. You're such a strong woman. And so brave." he says, patting my hand gently.
"You're gunna make me cry, Yumi." I sniffle.
"Well now, we wouldn't want that. May I have their names?"
I glance at Zaraki who shakes his head. "I only had one name for a girl and it's taken so it's on you."
"Takeshi for him and....Michiko for her." I say softly.
"Lovely. I'll go speak with our squad." Yumichika says before leaving in a hurry. I listen for a moment before it sounds like the entire barracks roars in excitement.
"Pachi...much as I love being naked, I'd really like to get a pad between my legs before I ruin the bed."
He laughs and kisses me. "Alright, Wolf. I think we could both use a nap."
****Kenpachi POV****
Once I've helped her get cleaned up and situated, I look at the two little...creatures in their bassinets. One is wrapped in lavender colored blankets and I can tell it's my girl because of her black hair. The other is wrapped in blue and he's just starin' at me, quiet as can be. His hair is...a mix it looks like. Black but blue undertones in it. His eyes are blue but not Harmona's blue. They both look so damn puny. It's botherin' me. Tiny things and I don't get along. Apparently he thinks the same thing because he lets out a loud scream.
This is going to take a lotta gettin' used to.
