11 She knocked on the door and waited for a reply. 'Are you ready yet Kumiko-chan?' she asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
12 The door opened and a young girl stood infront of her, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.
|
|
rlm@2
|
13 'Why Sakura-papa?' she asked. 'You don't remember do you?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
14 'No!' Kumiko replied, smiling brightly. 'We're going out today!' Sakura said, smiling at her daughters reaction.
|
|
rlm@2
|
15 'Really?' Kumiko asked. 'Really!' Sakura replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
16 'Sakura, Kumiko-chan! Hikaru-chan's here!' Tomoyo said, having walked up to them, wanting to see if Kumiko was ready.
|
|
rlm@2
|
17 'Hikaru-chan's here?' Kumiko whispered, before running passed Sakura.
|
|
rlm@2
|
18 'Where is she mama?' Kumiko asked, stopping suddenly. 'She's in the living room!' Tomoyo replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
19 'Arigatou!' Kumiko called out before running down the stairs. Sakura smiled brightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
20 'She really likes Hikaru-chan doesn't she?' Tomoyo asked. 'Hai!' Sakura replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
21 'So where are we going again?' Tomoyo asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
22 'Well, first we're going to pick up Auntie Rika and Auntie Naoko then we're heading for the beach!' Sakura replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
23 Tomoyo giggled softly. Smiling Sakura wondered why, as a child, she hadn't known why the sound of Tomoyo's laughter always made her feel happy.
|
|
rlm@2
|
24 'Auntie Rika? Auntie Naoko?'
|
|
rlm@2
|
25 'Yeah! Remember when Kumiko slept with Naoko and Rika when they said they wanted to know what it was like to have a child?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
26 Tomoyo nodded slightly remembering that day.
|
|
rlm@2
|
27 'Well, when I tucked her in, Kumiko said that she'd had fun with Auntie Rika and Auntie Naoko and she'd like to spend some more time when them!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
28 'Oh!' Tomoyo said, smiling brightly. Sakura smiled again and hugged the pale business woman with one arm. 'Is everything ok with Nadeshiko-chan?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
29 'Hai! She's just a little energetic today!' Tomoyo replied, smiling when Sakura leaned closer to her swelling stomach.
|
|
rlm@2
|
30 'Are you going to be a good girl today Nadeshiko-chan?' she asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
31 As if responding Nadeshiko started kicking. 'Good girl!' Sakura whispered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
32 'You certainly have a way with them Sakura!' Tomoyo whispered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
33 Sakura giggled softly before wrapping her arm around Tomoyo.
|
|
rlm@2
|
34
|
|
rlm@2
|
35 'Hi Hikaru-chan!' the girl called out upon seeing her friend.
|
|
rlm@2
|
36 'Hi Kumi-chan!' Hikaru replied, before blushing slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
37 'Um.. Kumi-chan... are you going to go out like that?' she asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
38 Looking down, Kumiko blushed brightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
39 'Hoe! I forgot we were going out today!' Kumiko said, her blush deepening.
|
|
rlm@2
|
40 'I think we'd better get you dressed.' Hikaru said, taking Kumiko's hand in her own and pulling the pale girl to her bedroom.
|
|
rlm@2
|
41 'Ok!' Kumiko said, smiling brightly. 'Hello Sakura-san, Tomoyo-san!' Hikaru said, passing them on the stairs.
|
|
rlm@2
|
42 'Hi Hikaru-chan!' Tomoyo replied. 'Where are you going?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
43 'Dressing Kumiko-chan!' Hikaru replied, stopping suddenly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
44 Not paying attention Kumiko walked straight into Hikaru's back.
|
|
rlm@2
|
45 'Ok! Just be gentle!' Sakura said, giggling when she saw Kumiko blush slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
46 'Papa!' Kumiko stuttered. 'I'm always gentle with my Kumiko-chan Sakura-san!' Hikaru stated, giggling softly as Kumiko blushed brighter.
|
|
rlm@2
|
47 'Hoe! Hikaru-chan! Stop teasing me!' Kumiko whined, attracting even more giggling from her friend and parents.
|
|
rlm@2
|
48 'I can't help it! You look so cute when you blush!' Hikaru said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
49 Sensing her task was complete Hikaru resumed their walk to Kumiko's bedroom.
|
|
rlm@2
|
50 'You know I think Hikaru-chan's right! She is cute when she blushes!' Tomoyo said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
51 Sakura nodded in agreement before heading to the kitchen to finish packing their picnic.
|
|
rlm@2
|
52
|
|
rlm@2
|
53 Kumiko stood infront of her mirror and sighed as Hikaru looked through her wardrobe.
|
|
rlm@2
|
54 'Why'd you do that?' Kumiko asked. 'Do what?' Hikaru asked, not turning around.
|
|
rlm@2
|
55 'Embarrass me like that infront of mama and papa!' Kumiko replied, sighing again.
|
|
rlm@2
|
56 'Because I like to see you blush!' Hikaru replied holding some clothes to herself.
|
|
rlm@2
|
57 Nodding slightly she walked closer to her friend. 'Here you go!' Hikaru said, handing Kumiko the clothing.
|
|
rlm@2
|
58 Hikaru's ability to choose clothing for Kumiko rivaled Tomoyo's.
|
|
rlm@2
|
59 'Is Kero-chan coming?' she asked, while Kumiko got changed.
|
|
rlm@2
|
60 Nope! Auntie Rika and Auntie Naoko are coming so has to stay here!' Kumiko replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
61 Moments passed in total silence. 'Hikaru-chan... I'm stuck!' Kumiko said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
62 Turning around Hikaru giggled slightly when she saw why Kumiko was stuck.
|
|
rlm@2
|
63 'No wonder! You've got your head in your slieve!' she said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
64 Helping her Hikaru smiled when Kumiko's head appeared and she opened her eyes.
|
|
rlm@2
|
65 'Thats better!' Kumiko said, smiling slightly. 'Kumiko-chan, your mother needs your help!' a voice said through the slightly open door.
|
|
rlm@2
|
66 'I'll be right there Sakura-papa!' Kumiko called back.
|
|
rlm@2
|
67 Hurrying out the door she raced to see what her mother needed her help with.
|
|
rlm@2
|
68 Hikaru smiled before Kero-chan caught her attention. The little beast lay on Kumiko's bed, his little wings twitching every now and then.
|
|
rlm@2
|
69 'What's wrong Kero-chan?' she asked. 'I have to say here while you guys go off to have fun and cake! It's not fair!' he said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
70 Hikaru smiled slightly. 'If you want I could save you a piece!' she said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
71 'Really? Arigatou Hikaru-chan!' he said, smiling brightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
72 The girl sighed softly, sitting on the edge of the bed.
|
|
rlm@2
|
73 'I had a funny dream last night!' she muttered. 'Really?' Kero-chan asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
74 'Yeah! Me and Kumiko-chan were a lot older and a young girl ran upto us and hugged us!' Hikaru said. 'And?'
|
|
rlm@2
|
75 'Then we kissed! What does that mean?' she asked. 'I don't know!' Kero-chan replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
76 It had been years since Sakura had had that kind of dream. 'What could it mean?' he thought.
|
|
rlm@2
|
77 'The strange thing is the girl looks a lot like Sakura-san!' Kero-chan looked at her.
|
|
rlm@2
|
78 'She's seen the future!' he thought. Before Hikaru could say anymore Kumiko ran in.
|
|
rlm@2
|
79 'Everythings ready!' the young girl said. Turning Hikaru looked at Kero-chan. 'I'll remember that piece of cake!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
80 The little animal smiled and nodded. Taking hold of Hikaru's hand, she led her out of the room, leaving a very confused Kero-chan.
|
|
rlm@2
|
81
|
|
rlm@2
|
82 'Hi Sakura, hi Tomoyo!' Rika said when they got out of their car.
|
|
rlm@2
|
83 'Hi Rika, Naoko!' Tomoyo said, resting against the car door.
|
|
rlm@2
|
84 'Hi Auntie Rika, Auntie Naoko!' Kumiko said, slowly jogging up to them.
|
|
rlm@2
|
85 'Hi Kumiko-chan!' Naoko said, hugging the young girl. 'Um.. Hello!' Hikaru stuttered bowing politely.
|
|
rlm@2
|
86 'Who's this Kumi-chan?' Rika asked. 'She's my best friend! Her name is Hikaru Watanabe!' Kumiko said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
87 'Oh yeah!' Rika said, smiling slightly. 'She's a cute one! You'd better not let her slip away!' Rika said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
88 'Rika, you can't tell them that!' Sakura said. 'Why not?' Naoko asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
89 'Because they don't know yet!' Sakura said. 'Know what papa?' the child asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
90 'Sorry Kumi-chan, but its a secret!' Sakura replied. 'Are you ready?' Sakura asked looked at her friend.
|
|
rlm@2
|
91 'Yeah!' Rika replied smiling slightly. Naoko smiled brightly. Apart from Rika she hardly saw her friends.
|
|
rlm@2
|
92 Still smiling they got in the car and headed to the beach. After almost 2 hours of traveling they reached the beach.
|
|
rlm@2
|
93 As the adults set the picnic up Hikaru and Kumiko played near the water.
|
|
rlm@2
|
94 'They don't know yet?' Rika asked. 'Nope!' Sakura replied, helping Tomoyo sit down.
|
|
rlm@2
|
95 'Kumiko-chan! Hikaru-chan! Everythings ready!' Sakura called out.
|
|
rlm@2
|
96 The girls slowly approached her, talking amongst themselves. 'Really?' Hikaru asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
97 'Hai! I'd like to know too!' Kumiko replied. 'Sakura-san.. can you remember what Kumiko-chan's first word was?' she asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
98 Sakura smiled and nodded. Hugging her mother Kumiko felt Nadeshiko start kicking.
|
|
rlm@2
|
99 'She's kicking again mama!' the girl said. 'Can I feel it Tomoyo-san?' Hikaru asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
100 Tomoyo nodded before Hikaru lightly pressed her hand against Tomoyo's swelling stomach.
|
|
rlm@2
|
101 She blushed slightly when she felt the unborn child kick.
|
|
rlm@2
|
102 'I think she's saying hi Hikaru-chan!' Tomoyo whispered. 'Hi Nadeshiko-chan!' Hikaru whispered, smiling as she felt the baby kick again.
|
|
rlm@2
|
103 Rika and Naoko smiled slightly, they were also curious about their "niece's" first word.
|
|
rlm@2
|
104 'Well it started about 6 years ago....'
|
|
rlm@2
|
105
|
|
rlm@2
|
106 6 YEARS AGO
|
|
rlm@2
|
107
|
|
rlm@2
|
108 She opened her eyes the second she heard the baby cry.
|
|
rlm@2
|
109 Tomoyo sat in her chair trying to stop the child by singing to her, but this time it was having no effect.
|
|
rlm@2
|
110 Looking up she saw Sakura looking at her. 'I'm sorry Sakura!' the pale woman said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
111 'Why didn't you wake me?' Sakura asked. 'Because you looked so cute!' Tomoyo replied, yawning softly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
112 'Tomoyo, you rest! I'll look after Kumiko-chan for now! Besides, I think she wants her mother!' Sakura said, gentlely lifting the child from her wifes arms.
|
|
rlm@2
|
113 'Ok!' Tomoyo whispered, kissing Sakura before laying on the bed Sakura had vacated.
|
|
rlm@2
|
114 Within moments of laying down Tomoyo was asleep. It was then Sakura noticed that Kumiko wasn't crying anymore.
|
|
rlm@2
|
115 Looking down she saw the child smile at her. 'Hi Kumiko-chan!' she whispered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
116 The child gurgled, closed her eyes and nuzzled into Sakura's chest. Sakura smiled.
|
|
rlm@2
|
117 'I knew you just wanted your mother!' she whispered. Kumiko yawned softly, before opening her eyes again.
|
|
rlm@2
|
118 'Pa...pa!' the girl said. Sakura's eyes went wide. 'What?' she said. 'Papa!' Kumiko said again happily.
|
|
rlm@2
|
119 'Papa? You think I'm your father?' she asked the child holding her up.
|
|
rlm@2
|
120 Kumiko's small arms reached out as Sakura brought her closer then she grabbed and started pulling on her cheeks.
|
|
rlm@2
|
121 'Papa!' the child said again. 'Having fun?' she asked as Kumiko pulled her cheeks again.
|
|
rlm@2
|
122 'How can I be your papa?' Sakura asked, just as Kumiko giggled again.
|
|
rlm@2
|
123 She sat down and picked up a small bear that sat next to her bed.
|
|
rlm@2
|
124 Kumiko let go of her cheeks when she handed her the bear. Standing up, she walked over to Tomoyo and sat next to her.
|
|
rlm@2
|
125 'Tomoyo!' she whispered, 'Tomoyo-chan..' The pale woman moaned and opened her eyes.
|
|
rlm@2
|
126 'What is it Sakura?' she asked, rubbing her eyes. 'Why does our daughter see me as her papa?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
127 'Really?' Tomoyo asked. Sakura nodded. 'Kumi-chan..' Sakura whispered, before the child looked up. 'Who am I?' she asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
128 'Papa!' the girl said, smiling brightly. Then she pointed to Tomoyo.
|
|
rlm@2
|
129 'Who's this?' Sakura asked. Kumiko looked up at her then at Tomoyo.
|
|
rlm@2
|
130 'P..' the child said before looking again, 'Ma.. ma!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
131 Looking up she smiled before hugging the bear in her arms.
|
|
rlm@2
|
132 'Why are you the mother Tomoyo-chan?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
133 'I think it's because Kumiko-chan sees you differently to the way she sees me!' Tomoyo replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
134 Sakura sighed softly as she watched her daughter play with her teddy bear.
|

136 PRESENT DAY
|
|
rlm@2
|
137
|
|
rlm@2
|
138 Kumiko, Hikaru, Rika and Naoko looked at her, amazed by the story while Tomoyo smiled at them.
|
|
rlm@2
|
139 'Did that really happen?' Rika asked. 'Hai!' Sakura said, smiling brightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
140 'Why do you see Sakura-san didderently Kumiko-chan?' Hikaru asked. Kumiko shrugged her shoulders.
|
|
rlm@2
|
141 'I don't know! I've always thought of her as my papa!' the girl replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
142 'I have a question Sakura!' Naoko said.'How'd you get Tomoyo pregnant?'
|
|
rlm@2
|
143 Sakura looked at Tomoyo for a second before Tomoyo answered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
144 'Sakura.. convinced Touya to get us some of his sperm!' Tomoyo said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
145 'Really?' Rika asked. Sakura nodded, not trusting herself to answer.
|
|
rlm@2
|
146 'We should try that!' Rika said. Naoko nodded. Kumiko lightly tugged on Sakura's shirt.
|
|
rlm@2
|
147 'Uncle Touya's my papa?' she asked. 'I'll explain everything when we get home!' Sakura said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
148 'Ok!' Kumiko whispered. She was so confused.
|
|
rlm@2
|
149 'Could uncle Touya be my papa?' she asked herself. 'Whats the matter Kumi-chan?' Hikaru asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
150 'Hai!' Kumiko replied, blushing slightly. 'Are you ok Kumiko-chan?' Hikaru asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
151 Kumiko nodded, blushing brighter. 'If he is does that mean that Sakura-papa's my auntie?'
|
|
rlm@2
|
152 She became so lost in her thoughts that she never heard Hikaru ask her if she wanted to go swiming.
|
|
rlm@2
|
153 'Kumi-chan?' a voice said followed by a light tapping on her shoulder. 'Hai Sakura-papa?' she asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
154 'Hikaru-chan wants to know if you'll go swiming with her!' Sakura said. 'But I forgot my bathing suit!' Kumiko said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
155 Sakura smiled slightly. 'You might have but you're mother brought one with her just encase!' Sakura said, handing her daughter her spare bathing suit.
|
|
rlm@2
|
156 'Arigatou!' Kumiko whispered, 'But where can I change?' Sakura's smile grew slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
157 'You're gonna have to step off the blanket for a moment!' Sakura said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
158 Moving away Sakura picked up the blanket and held up shielding Kumiko for view.
|
|
rlm@2
|
159 'There you go!' the auburn gaired woman siad, before closing her eyes.
|
|
rlm@2
|
160 A few minutes later Kumiko lightly pulled on Sakura's shirt. 'Ready?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
161 'Hai!' Kumiko replied, as Sakura opened her eyes. 'What's the matter Kumi-chan?' Sakura asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
162 'Um.. Is uncle Touya really my papa?' the girl asked. 'No!' Sakura replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
163 'But you're a girl like Tomoyo-mama!' Kumiko said, very confused.
|
|
rlm@2
|
164 'And the strongest magician in the world! Remember?' Sakura said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
165 'Oh! I forgot!' Kumiko said, blushing slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
166 Sakura smiled at her before the girl hugged her as tightly as she could.
|
|
rlm@2
|
167 'Where's Hikaru-chan?' she asked, releasing Sakura from the hug. 'Near your mother!' Sakura replied, smiling when Kumiko ran off.
|
|
rlm@2
|
168 Jogging slowly behind her, they surprised the unsuspecing Tomoyo and Hikaru.
|
|
rlm@2
|
169
|
|
rlm@2
|
170 The trip home was uneventful. They dropped Naoko and Rika off at their appartment and continued home.
|
|
rlm@2
|
171 They thanked their friends for a good day out and was surprised when Kumiko hugged them before they left.
|
|
rlm@2
|
172 'Did you enjoy your day out?' Sakura asked when they stopped in the drive way.
|
|
rlm@2
|
173 When she got no answer she and Tomoyo turned around to see Kumiko and Hikaru resting against each other, sound asleep.
|
|
rlm@2
|
174 'They're so cute!' Tomoyo whispered, withdrawing a camera from her bag.
|
|
rlm@2
|
175 Moments later a flash filled the car and the girls opened their eyes slowly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
176 'Where are we?' she asked as she and Hikaru rubbed their eyes. 'Home!' Sakura replied, holding back a smile.
|
|
rlm@2
|
177 The girls got out of the car, closed the doors and stumbled.
|
|
rlm@2
|
178 Falling into Sakura and Tomoyo's arms they blushed and whispered their appologies.
|
|
rlm@2
|
179 'Did you have fun today?' Sakura asked again. Kumiko nodded slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
180 'Lets get you 2 to bed!' Sakura muttered as she and Tomoyo helped the girls into the house and up to Kumiko's bedroom.
|
|
rlm@2
|
181 Laying on the bed Hikaru snuggled into Kumiko. The pale girl smiled slightly and placed an arm around her waist, hugging her before they fell asleep.
|
|
rlm@2
|
182 As they shut the door they smiled ad went to the living room.
|
|
rlm@2
|
183 As they slowly walked down the stairs Sakura noticed that Tomoyo seemed to be paler then normal.
|
|
rlm@2
|
184 'Are you ok Tomoyo?' she asked. 'Hai! Just a little tired!' Tomoyo replied, sitting down when they got into the living room.
|
|
rlm@2
|
185 As she sat down she noticed something wet where she had been standing moments before and realised what had happened.
|
|
rlm@2
|
186 'Its time Sakura-chan!' Tomoyo said softly when Ssakura sat next to her.
|
|
rlm@2
|
187 Sakura looked at her and paled slightly. 'But I thought you still had over a week to go!' she said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
188 Tomoyo smiled at her. 'I do but Kumiko was a few weeks late remember!' the pale woman said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
189 'I think Nadeshiko-chan wants to come out early!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
190 'We'd better get you to the hospital then!' Sakura said, helping the pale woman stand.
|
|
rlm@2
|
191 Helping Tomoyo into the car Sakura rushed back into the house. Minutes later she appeared walking towrds the car with Kumiko and Hikaru almost asleep.
|
|
rlm@2
|
192 'Where are we going papa?' Kumiko asked, rubbing her eyes.
|
|
rlm@2
|
193 'The hospital! Nadeshiko-chan's gonna be a little early!' Sakura replied, almost pulling the girls with her.
|
|
rlm@2
|
194 This seemed to wake the girls up. 'But.. but she's not ready!' Kumiko said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
195 'I think she is Kumi-chan!' Sakura said as the girls jumped into the car.
|
|
rlm@2
|
196 Less then 30 minutes later they were at the hospital waiting for Tomoyo's mid-wife.
|
|
rlm@2
|
197
|
|
rlm@2
|
198 32 hours later little Nadeshiko Daidouji came into the world kicking and screaming.
|
|
rlm@2
|
199 Placed in her mothers arms the child continued to cry and squerm. 'Hi Nadeshiko-chan!' Tomoyo whispered, lightly strocking her baby's cheek.
|
|
rlm@2
|
200 Sakura smiled slightly. 'That girl has a good set of lungs! I bet she's gonna sing sometime!' she thought.
|
|
rlm@2
|
201 Slowly the infants crying stopped and she opened her eyes. 'She has your eyes Tomoyo!' Sakura whispered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
202 'Yeah for now!' Tomoyo replied, her voice a mear whisper.
|

203 Sakura smiled as they watched the nurse wrap Nadeshiko in a blanket and hand her to Sakura.
|
|
rlm@2
|
204 'Hi Nadeshiko-chan!' Sakura whispered. 'Papa.. who's that?' a small voice asked from ehind her.
|
|
rlm@2
|
205 Turing she saw Kumiko and Hikaru stand a short distanse away from her. 'Nadeshiko-chan say hello to your big sister!' Sakura whispered, showing Kumiko her little sister.
|
|
rlm@2
|
206 'She's so small papa!' Kumiko said. Sakura giggled softly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
207 'You were once like this Kumi-chan!' Sakura said. 'Why's she so red Sakura-san?' Hikaru asked.
|
|
rlm@2
|
208 'I.. I don't know!' Sakura said, blushing slightly. 'She has Kumiko's eyes!' Hikaru thought.
|
|
rlm@2
|
209 'They're so cute!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
210 'Are you ok Hikaru-chan?' Kumiko asked. 'H.. hai!' Hikaru stuttered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
211 'She has Kumi-chan's ears too!' the brown haired girl thought, blushing even brighter.
|
|
rlm@2
|
212 'Are you sure you're ok Hikaru-chan?' Sakura asked when she saw the girl's blush brighten.
|
|
rlm@2
|
213 'Hai Sakura-san!' the girl replied. Slowly a pair of arms wrapped themselves around a surprised Hikaru and something pressed against her cheek.
|
|
rlm@2
|
214 'You're wierd Hikaru-chan!' a soft voice said from behind her, 'But that's why I like you!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
215 Hikaru smiled slightly. 'Arigatou Kumi-chan!' Hikaru whispered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
216 The kiss that had just happened was almost as good as the kiss that had happened at Christmas.
|
|
rlm@2
|
217 It had been a surprise to find herself under the mistletoe, especally with her best friend.
|
|
rlm@2
|
218 Sakura and Tomoyo had insisted that they kiss and a picture be taken.
|
|
rlm@2
|
219 It had been embarassing when she did it, but she had secretly been wanting to be caught with the pale girl under the mistletoe.
|
|
rlm@2
|
220 Her parents were shocked at Kumiko's parents behavour, but allowed it.
|
|
rlm@2
|
221 She blushed brighter as she felt Kumiko tighten the hug slightly. 'She's cute!' Hikaru said, before Nadeshiko grabbed her finger with a tiny hand she'd managed to get out of the blanket.
|
|

|
222 Sakura smiled as the girls looked on at the baby.

|
226 A pale teenage girl with long dark hair and sparkling emerald eyes ran into her parents room and jumped on the bed.
|
|
rlm@2
|
227 'Hi mama! Hi papa!' the girl said happily. The pale woman occupying one side of the bed sat up slowly, yawning.
|
|
rlm@2
|
228 'Morning Nadeshiko-chan!' she said. 'Morning Tomoyo-mama!' Nadeshiko said, smiling brightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
229 'Sakura!' Tomoyo whispered to the auburnhaired woman on the other side of the bed.
|
|
rlm@2
|
230 'wozdomata?' Sakura muttered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
231 'Morning Sakura-papa!' Nadeshiko said. Sitting up Sakura rubbed her eyes.
|
|
rlm@2
|
232 'Morning Nadeshiko-chan!' Sakura replied sitting up. Nadeshiko's smile wavered slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
233 'You don't remember?' she asked. 'Of course we rememeber!' Tomoyo said. 'Remember what?' Sakura asked, her view going from her pale daughter to her pale wife.
|
|
rlm@2
|
234 'Oh! That!' she said, feeling Tomoyo pinch her under the covers.
|
|
rlm@2
|
235 'Happy Birthday Nadeshiko-chan!' Sakura said. Nadeshiko's smile grew a lot larger before she hugged her parents.
|
|
rlm@2
|
236 Jumping off the bed the girl ran out of the room, down the hall and into her bedroom.
|
|
rlm@2
|
237 Sakura winced when she saw Nadeshiko run handlong in the door, before running off unhindered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
238 Over the years Sakura noticed that her daughter was more like her mother Nadeshiko and not Tomoyo.
|
|
rlm@2
|
239 She sighed as the got out of bed and started dressing. Running down the stairs Nadeshiko heard a knock at the door.
|
|
rlm@2
|
240 Opening it she saw 3 red haired people smiling at her. 'Happy birthday Nadeshiko-chan!' the youngest said, hugging the pale girl.
|
|
rlm@2
|
241 'Arigatout Rika-chan!' Nadeshiko replied. 'Happy Birthday Nadeshiko-chan!'the other red heads said, bowing slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
242 'Arigatou Tohru-san, Yuri-san!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
243 'So 15?' Yuri asked. Nadeshiko nodded happily. Tohru smiled slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
244 Rika looked up to the dark haired girl, for reasons mainly her own. Nadeshiko had failed to notice that Rika had blushed slightly when Nadeshiko had returned her hug.
|
|
rlm@2
|
245 'I'm gonna tell her today!' the young red head thought. 'Mama and papa'll be down soon!' Nadeshiko said as they walked into the living room.
|
|
rlm@2
|
246 Just as she sat down there was another knock on the door. Standing up the pale teen walked to the door and opened it.
|
|
rlm@2
|
247 'Happy Birthday Nadeshiko-chan!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
248 'Hi Hikaru-san! Hi Onii-chan!' Nadehshiko replied happily. 'Hi Kaijuu!' Kumiko said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
249 'I'm not a Kaijuu!' Nadeshiko screamed at her older sister. 'Happy Birthday Nadehshiko-chan!' a softer voice came from behind Hikaru.
|
|
rlm@2
|
250 'Hi Megumi-chan!' Nadeshiko said as Hikaru and Kumiko stepped passed her. Slowly they moved into a tight hug.
|
|
rlm@2
|
251 'I missed you Megumi-chan!' Nadeshiko whispered. 'Silly Nadeshiko-chan! I was here yesterday!' Megumi said, giggling softly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
252 'I know but I still missed you!' Nadeshiko countered, leaning forward slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
253 Leaning forward Megumi lightly pressed her lips to Nadeshiko's. Slowly they leaned apart.
|
|
rlm@2
|
254 'Where's your present Megumi-chan?' Nadeshiko asked, realising that both of Megumi's arms were around her waist.
|
|
rlm@2
|
255 'I'm gonna give it to you later Nadeshiko-chan!' Megumi replied, smiling slightly.
|
|
rlm@2
|
256 'Hi Megumi-chan!' came a voice from behind them. They blushed as they moved apart.
|
|
rlm@2
|
257 'Hi Rika-chan!' Megumi said, seeing their friend. 'Why?' Rika asked herself. 'She's Nadeshiko's best friend, and they're dating! Why didn't I see this before?'
|
|
rlm@2
|
258 'Are you ok Rika-chan?' Nadeshiko asked. Rika nodded. 'Because you wouldn't see it!' a voice answered. 'You refused to see it!'
|
|
rlm@2
|
259 'But I love her!' she thought. 'And she loves you! But she loves Megumi even more! Besides what about Misato?' the voice replied.
|
|
rlm@2
|
260 'Hey you three! Mama and Papa want to know it you want cake!' Kumiko's voice said.
|
|
rlm@2
|
261 'We'll be right there Onii-chan!' Nadeshiko called back, turning to see Rika smiling at them.
|
|
rlm@2
|
262 They walked into the living room to find a bright blue Birthday cake now on a table in the centre of the room.
|
|
rlm@2
|
263 'Papa could Megumi-chan give me her present first?' Nadeshiko asked. Sakura smiled at her.
|
|
rlm@2
|
264 'Sorry Nadeshiko-chan.. there'll be time for that later!' she said, smiling brighter when Nadeshiko and Megumi blushed.
|
|
rlm@2
|
265 'Ok Sakura-papa!' Nadeshiko whispered, looing at the cake. Megumi smiling slightly, having had a hand in making it.
|
|
rlm@2
|
266 'Blow out the candles Nadehsiko-chan!' she whispered, nudgin the pale girl towards the cake.
|
|
rlm@2
|
267 Nadeshiko blushed and closed her eyes. 'I wish... I wish...' she thought. She opened her eyes and blew the candle out and smiled.
|
|
rlm@2
|
268 'Happy Birthday Nadeshiko-chan!' Everyone said. Nadeshiko smiled and helped cut the cake.
|
|
rlm@2
|
269
|
|
rlm@2
|
270 Hours later Nadeshiko lay next to Megumi, almost asleep. 'Wow!' the blonde haired girl whispered. 'Where'd you learn that?'
|
|
rlm@2
|
271 'From mama and papa!' Nadeshiko replied, smiling slightlyand pulling the covers over them.
|
|
rlm@2
|
272 'They let you watch them?' Megumi asked. Nadeshiko shook her head and smiled at the other girl.
|
|
rlm@2
|
273 'Silly Megumi-chan!' she whispered as Megumi blushed, 'They told me how!' Slowly she moved down so she was face to face with Megumi.
|
|
rlm@2
|
274 'Arigatou!' she whispered. 'I know we promised to wait till we were both 16.. but I couldnt wait!' Megumi whispered.
|
|
rlm@2
|
275 Nadeshiko smiled slightly. Megumi was only a few months older then her.
|
|
rlm@2
|
276 'Its ok Megumi-chan! It's been the best birthday ever!' she whispered, lightly kissing the other girl before they fell asleep.
|
|
rlm@2
|
277 Moments later the door opened and Sakura walked in. 'Are you ok...?' she asked, just noticing the girls were alseep.
|
|
rlm@2
|
278 She smiled and left the room leaving the girls to sleep. |
