Epilogue.

oooXoooXoooXoooXooo

Her stomach hurt every morning, she was constantly tired, and her period was late.

She stood in the bathroom pacing back and forth nervously.

When the three minute mark rolled around Ichigo took a shaky breath before approaching the small plastic stick on the counter.

Lifting it to her gaze she was greeted with a bright pink plus sign.

"Oh fuck…." She ran a hand through her hair and pulled on it slightly in order to get herself together.

She was pregnant.

+++++++++++++++++++++(haha plus signs, get it?)+++++++++++++++++++

I knew the minute the symptoms showed up that it was true, but another part of me still wasn't able to accept this turn of events as troubling thoughts filled my mind.

I was only nineteen, I was still a minor and in college too, if the word TEEN was in my age I was too young.

What would Kish think? I know he loves me, he's….established that….but how would a baby impact our relationship? He couldn't have been much older than me and I had never seen him interact with anyone younger than his little brother.

So can we take care of something as important as a baby?

As the anxiety swells in my chest I attempt to gather all of my morality and try to think clearly.

After minutes of thinking and biting off my nails I had come to a conclusion.

I had to tell him.

He was laying on the couch watching some random cartoon on TV, he looked so at ease that I was slightly tempted to just not tell him, but it was only right that he knows.

"Um…Kish?" I called to him softly.

"Hmmmm?" He hummed in response.

"I need to tell you something." The floor seemed very interesting now as his gaze shifted over to me.

Instead of answering verbally he simply opened his arms insinuating that he wanted me to come sit with him first.

Complying with his wishes I walked over and sat next to Kish only to be pulled into the pervert's lap.

"So what's up?" He asked, voice muffled from burying his face into my neck.

"Uh, well….I don't know how to say this but…." I really didn't know what to say as his liquid gold eyes watched my face intently.

"Ichii-chan. Tell meeeeee~" My green haired partner whined, still oblivious to the situation.

"I….I'm pregnant!" The words left my mouth so quick that I was afraid he didn't hear me but judging by the blank expression he wore he probably did.

The room filled with awkward silence, neither of us speaking for awhile but eventually the tension got to me.

"If you don't say something I'll cry…." I said softly already beginning to follow up on those words as my eyes filled with a rough burning sensation.

Suddenly my feet left the ground and I was literally hoisted into the air as Kish was pulling me into a levitating embrace.

"Ichigo, that's wonderful!" His voice resonated with happiness and I couldn't help but laugh when he began to spin me around in circles.

When he finally put me down I could see his eyes sparkling with glee and his mouth pulled upwards in a large grin that rivaled the Cheshire cat.

"Eep!" I yelped in surprise when I was suddenly pulled forward and numerous kisses were being planted all over my face. "K-Kish, stop that!" I yelled although I secretly enjoyed this show of affection.

"Sorry, I'm just…this is so….wow." His grin had turned into a gentle smile now as our hands intertwined.

"I know…" I looked into his warm eyes and that was all it took for my fears and doubts to wash away leaving me with nothing but excitement.

"Oh, that reminds me…"

A baby was surprising enough but when he got down one knee I swear to god my poor little neko heart couldn't take it.

"W-w-what-?" Was all I managed to sputter out as he pulled something out of his pocket.

In his hand now was a beautiful silver band set with a diamond and a green jewel on either side that would shine whenever the light hit it.

"This was my mother's…..she told me to save it for someone special one day, Ichigo I want you to be that someone." He looked up at me with serious yet loving eyes waiting for my answer.

It was so odd, he had asked me a long time ago to marry him and I said no and now….

"You idiot…of course I will!" Tears brimmed at the corners of my closed eyes while I gave him a wide smile.

Kish didn't even bother slipping the ring on my finger instead he pounced on me, pulling me into a bone crushing hug.

"Finally…" I heard him mumble as something wet hit my shoulder, it was only then that I realized he was crying and only a few seconds after that I noticed a few tears falling down my face as well.

Remembering the task at hand my now fiancée slid the ring onto my finger.

"I love you, Ichigo." He said before closing the gap between us.

"Alright I think that's the last of the boxes!"

It had been two months since that day and now I was standing in a new house.

Our new house.

Yeah, since my apartment wasn't the best place to raise a baby (or settle down in period) we decided to look for a house, the other mew mew's pitched in as well allowing me and my partner to find a house perfect for our growing little family.

"Ichigo, didn't I tell you not to carry anything?" A voice called to me from the doorway.

I smiled over to my fiancée, dismissing his usual worry. "I'm fine Kish, a little lifting won't hurt."

He wasn't having it though as I was ordered to sit out of the unpacking procedure.

"But you and the baby could get hurt!" Sigh, here came the lecture.

"Kish, look all the stuff's already here, I don't need to lift anymore." I ensured him gesturing to the emptied out boxes scattered around the new bedroom.

Kish sighed and walked over to me.

"Sorry…" He mumbled as he wounded his arms around my waist and buried his face in the crook of my neck.

"Y-yeah, w-whatever…" Even now he still made me blush.

"Ne, Ichigo." He called to me later while I was preparing dinner.

"Hm?" I did a semi-turn so I could look at his face.

"How much longer till' I get to see the baby?" Kish asked in a somewhat childlike tone.

"Eight months." I answered noticing the subtle deflation in his shoulders.

"Awwwww, I wanna see them now!" He whined.

"Yeah, yeah, stop whining, it's unbecoming." I giggled when he let out another groan.

And that's how our life went, how my life changed so drastically I can't even remember.

It seems like just the other day he was an enemy, trying to kill me and my friends…and now we were engaged.

In the end though I have to say I've had a lot of fun…
