C4

Fade's p.o.v.

Through my unconsciousness I walked through a landfilled in darkness. I only felt pain on my feet and a soft turn of jazz music was playing but it was scratched out by the ringing in my head. The never ending ringing. "My, my. Look what we have here. You really have a number on you," a little red goblin showed up out of nowhere and snapped his fingers, lighting up a room.

"Huh?" When he spoke the ringing disappeared and I snapped my head towards his pitch black eyes.

"Interesting. You seem to be coming out of it. Well that's good. You don't need that kind of yucky magic on you."

"Who are you?" I asked tilting my head. "Where am I?" I panicked. "Noire!"

"Don't worry. I'm not going to be here long sadly. You aren't my true host. You're in the black room in your subconciousness." He shrugged.

"Oh." I held my stomach and fell to my knees curling up not out of pain though.

"Oh dear me, dear me. You're expecting."

"What?" I glanced at him confused. "Who are you again?"

"I never gave you my name. You don't need it. Anyways, you are in for a rough ride for nine months." He laughed darkly.

"Nine months? Is that how long the spell will last?"

"No, I got rid of that. I don't need my host being endangered by a spell like that on one of her so called friends."

"What..." I narrowed my eyes. "Host? Endangered? Who?"

"Don't worry about it." He turned his back on me and inspected his surroundings.

"You know something I don't? What is it?"

"That you are pregnant?" He turned around and looked at me. "Is that what you are asking or are you still asking about the host thing?"

"Pregnant..." I let the word run through my head. "Black Star... I'M GONNA KILL HIM!"

"Getting mad at the dad? Damn." The goblin laughed at me.

"What do you want anyways?"

"To lead you and Noire to a life of power."

"Power? What kind of power?"

"The ultimate kind. The one that would help you defeat people like Crona."

"Really? What's the price to this power to defeat Crona and his black blood?"

"Let's not talk about prices. Why worry about anything like that? That's how you falter, and then get killed. You'll never achieve power by worrying over technicalities."

"Then you want an I.O.U?"

"Nothing of the sort. I," he gave me a small bow, "am here to serve."

"Can I trust you?" I walked up to him.

"You can't trust anyone."

"Especially boys." I muttered.

"Especially boys." He laughed.

"I think I might like you." I smiled.

"Well good. It's going to be a pleasure working with you. A lady who has her good senses." He smirked and bit on his fingers. "My oh my this is going to be great."

"Your a peculiar one."

"That I may be. This won't be the last time you see me either more than likely. Have fun with that baby. Oh by the way....it's a girl I think." He snapped his fingers to the music and did a weird dance to it as he started to fade away.

"Crazy guy thinks I'm stupid, good." I muttered and walked away.

I woke up and sat up rubbing my head and glanced around the room to see Stein's back and smiled relaxing. "Good evening Stein." I said softly.

"Oh good evening! I searched you for any magic spells still on you but it seems like they've gone away if they were there in the first placed. I had this needle prepared to inject you with and everything!" He turned around with a needle and some green fluid was in it. I cringed at the sight and screamed backing away from him to the headboard of the bed and pulled the covers over my head.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME WITH THAT THING!" I yelled at him.

"Oh calm down Fade. I was just joking." He set it down and looked at me. "I noticed that you have sustained some wounds. I've bandaged them up again and cleaned them for you as well. It looks like someone did a mediocre attempt at doing it before. It looked like someone dumped peroxide all over it."

"That would be Noire." I said softly and came out from under the covers. "Stein I need to talk to you. I need this between us."

"Go right ahead." Stein sat down in a rolly chair by the edge of the bed and rested his chin on the back of it, looking at me.

"I- I think.. No I know, I was visited in my dreams, in my unconscious subconscious state. It was from a... goblin." He tensed up a little.

"A red goblin?"

"Yes." I nodded.

"What happened?"

"He cured me from the curse, said something about he can help me defeat Crona."

"You didn't listen to him right? Whatever you do, do NOT let him lead you anywhere."

"I know, I read about this before. I made him think I am clueless but I am not."

"How could you have read about it....if it's a new thing?"

"I read about goblins, not goblins that come in your sleep."

"Oh....that makes more sense.....I wonder how he....May I do a blood test?"

"Of course." I nodded.  He got up and went over to the desk, grabbing a needle and came over to me and wiped my skin with a wipe and then took a sample of my blood and went back to his desk over there and started working.

"Tell me more about this....goblin of yours."

"There's not much to tell, when he appeared he made the ringing stop."

"Yes, yes, you told me that."

"T-that's all."

"That's all? He didn't make any offers, give any leads about how he ended up in your dream, anything?"

"He said something about a main host and he only cured me in fear I might harm his host." Stein froze.

"Host?"

"Yes, host."

"On this mission, did anything happen? Anything out of the ordinary?"

"I was able to wound Crona during soul resonance with Noire."

"I wonder....did he have anything to do with that or was the black blood too slow for you and Noire?"

"The goblin didn't say much."

"That's what you keep saying....main host. I hope he was only talking about Crona."

"I don't know..." I shook my head and put a hand over my stomach. Pregnant? Could he be right about that?

"Well, good news Fade. I'm not seeing any black blood results mixed in with your shinigami blood." Stein turned to me. "You're not infected with it. I'm guessing your body killed it off due to your Shinigaminess."

"That could be it." I nodded and slid out of bed. "I need to go do a few things."

"Ok. I'm going to guess this is top secret." Stein said and stretched.

"Yes, don't say anything about what I have told you Stein. Especially to Noire. I don't want her worrying anymore then she is."

"Alright. Go do what you need to do." He waved me off.

"Uh huh." I walked out and up the stairs to a hallway and looked around narrowing my eyes. How could that goblin make me worry so much over a little issue. Me being pregnant? I took the pill. I'll take a test anyways just to be safe. I walked towards the front door being quiet and walked out the front door.

"Where are you going?" I jumped as I heard Spirit ask me. He was smoking on the porch.

"Uh- uh..."

"Well? Your supposed to be in bed."

"Stein let me go."

"He...Let you go?"

"Yes, I will be back later." I walked over to my car that was finally sent over from France. "Nice, glad to see you again." I climbed into it and drove off before Sprit could object. I checked up under the seat and got my wallet and looked through it and seen I still had some cash to spear. I drove to the nearest pharmacy and bought a pregnancy test and a box of cookies. I drove back to the manor and walked into the place looking around.

"Back already?" Spirit asked and I jumped.

"UGHGHGHGUG. Don't scare me again." He laughed and pointed at the bag.

"What's in that?"

"Curiosity killed the cat." I ran towards a bathroom and locked myself in it and took in a deep breath. Here goes everything.

Kid's p.o.v.

The sun was setting as I sat on the balcony at my house and watched it, sticking my legs through the railings and rested my head on the wooden bars. I had a long day of planning and no texts from Noire. "Hey Kid, why are you out here?" Black Star asked me as he sat down by me and gave me a smile.

"Oh hey Black Star. I'm just resting. You've worn me out."

"Ha! Good. I haven't had a text from Fade... Stein and Spirit went missing, again."

"Again? I wonder where they went..."

"Who knows. Maybe they went back on their honeymoon?"

"We should go ask my dad."

"If you want. It's not like we have school or anything. We've got the excuse of wedding planning."

"It's the weekend anyways." I chuckled and stood up. "Well, let's go ask!" I grabbed Black Star's hand and pulled him to my father's study. "HEY DAD! Where did Stein and Spirit go?" Right at that moment, Black Star's phone buzzed and he quickly took it out and searched it with a look of excitement then his face fell.

"Stupid ads for men magazines." Black Star mumbled and put his phone back up. "I want Fade damn it."

"Hey! Oh Fade... hm. That's where I sent them." Black Star looked up at my dad quickly.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU SEND ME- I MEANT US!" He corrected when he glanced at me.

"Because I need Stein and Spirit over there."

"Then bring the girls home! Make them do the investigation and bring the girls home!" Black Star fell to his knees and looked up at Lord Death in a pleading way.

"Their coming home in the morning, I decided to put Stein on the case and the girls are coming home. Fade isn't in the best shape for further carrying out the case right now."

"Ahhhh! What happened to my beautiful fiancé?!" Black Star faceplanted the floor.

"Before I sent Stein and Spirit, Noire told me that she is... well either mental and hearing stuff or is under a spell and hearing this 'ringing'. I haven't heard anything else." Just as he said that, his mirror rippled and Noire was on the other side of it.

"Lord Death? Stein told me to give you a report on Fade, sooooo.....yeah."

"How is she?"

"The spell is gone and the ringing won't be back. She's been throwing up though lately and might be coming down with the flu along with those wounds she received."

"That's not too good." My dad shook his head. "Oh you girls are coming home in the morning ok?"

"Okay, I think Fade will be ok with that. Oh...We found two boys, can we keep them?" Noire asked biting her lip.

"Sure." Lord Death sounded happy. "If they join DWMA."

"Well one is a meister and the other is a weapon. I believe the weapon threw cake last time you saw them. I was asleep." Noire giggled.

"I don't mind." Lord Death looked at me. "Go fix up two rooms." I nodded and walked out the room. I fixed two rooms up for the two boys. I walked back into my dad's study afterwards and smiled at him.

"Finished. Good night." I walked out going to my bedroom and found Black Star snoring it up on my bed. I slowly walked over and laid down on my favorite side of the bed and closed my eyes not minding him in my bed. The next morning, Black Star was snuggled up to me and had his arms wrapped around me. I froze up and snuck out of his arms and over towards my bathroom cautiously. Black Star stirred a little and stopped snoring. I froze up and turned towards him. He was sitting up a little and looked around then met my eyes and narrowed them. I ran into the bathroom quickly and slammed the door shut locking it. "Hah. Not this morning."

"Jeez Kid, you kicked me in your sleep." I heard him mutter on the other side and heard him turn over on my bed and lay back down. Oh and now he recognizes me? I shook my head and took a shower. When I finished I dried off and got dressed into some sweat pants and a tank top then walked out to him brushing my teeth. Black Star watched me. "Oh tonight we are going to have the bachelor party if the girls are coming home today. I plan on marrying your sister as soon as possible."

"Why don't you just wait until she gets over that flue she's catching." I told him and continued brushing my teeth and smiled.

"Because I love your sister and I'd rather take care of her than have her push me away and tell me that she doesn't want me around her."

"Uhmmm." I walked off to the bathroom and spit into the sink. "Idiot." I shook my head. "She wont marry him if she is sick." I finished brushing my teeth then walked back out to him.

"Or I could wait....I don't know. I kind of told her I'd marry her as soon as she came home."

"She's sort of been through a lot in the past couple of days. Didn't you hear my dad?"

"Hmmmm....you've got a point....I'll let her rest then." Black Star looked up at the ceiling. "Plus she don't need to be walking down the aisle with wounds from fighting."

"Exactly!" I gave him a smile. "Let's go out for breakfast, my treat and then we will wait for the girls at the airport."

"Sounds great!" Black Star got up and was already dressed in his normal outfit like he had left and come back. I raised my eyebrow and walked out the door down to my car and got into it turning on the radio.  Black Star got in next to me and smiled at me. "So where are we going?"

"We are going to a dinner."

"Cool." Black Star buckled up and looked out the window for the rest of the ride and when we got there, we planned out more of the wedding for when Fade felt better and we drove over to the airport and watched the airplane come in. We stood side by side waiting as the girls got off the plane. Fade walked up to Black Star and slapped him right across the face hard leaving his face red and hot. He put his hand up to his cheek and blinked back tears. "W-what was that for?" He pouted at Fade. "I swear I didn't do anything to you!"

"DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO ME!? YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHAT YOU DONE. Didn't do anything. GO TO HELL BLACK STAR. I'LL SEE YOU AT THE WEDDING. LOVE. YOU." She walked off mumbling to herself. He chased after her and caught up to her.

"Baby what's the matter? Why are you treating me like garbage? I love you!" He put a hand on her shoulder to stop her.

"Because I am mad at you, but if I tell you why I will not have any fun with this. So good day." She pulled away from him. Black Star stood there staring at her dejectedly.

"W-why?"

"FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!!!!!!!!! Oh... Is that what I think it is!? YESSSSSS It's Thomas." She ran up to the pet carrier and grabbed Thomas and walked away towards the exit.

"FADE! WAIT! NO DON'T GO!" He chased after her again on the verge of tears.

"LEAVE ME ALONE! I AM SO VERY MAD AT YOU!" He ran in front of her and fell to his knees and grabbed her hands, tears flowing down his face and he looked up at her with heartbreak. She smiled sweetly and leaned down giving him a kiss. "Black Star, I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me. Heh. Well I sort of do know..." He sniffled and stood up, pulling her into a hug.

"I'm sorry Fade for whatever I did to piss you off. Please don't stay mad at me. Don't we have that rule of we can't go to sleep mad at each other?"

"I know, I'm not mad at you." She looked at me then at Black Star. "See I am more mad at myself."

"Well, why don't you tell me why your mad? We can sort it out together!" He smiled at her and brushed some of the hair out of her face. "Right?"

"NO!" She ran away. "I'M NOT GONNA TELL YOU!"

"OK, OK, OK! JUST COME BACK! YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME!" He chased after her and pulled her into a hug.

"HMnHMHN." She leaned in and whispered something into his ear. I raised an eyebrow. His face looked surprised and he looked at her with wide eyes, frozen to the spot.

"R-really?"

"If you tell anyone I will murder you." He laughed a little and smiled then picked her up and spun her around.

"I can't believe it!" He set her down and leaned in kissing her. "I love you soooo much Fade! I won't tell a soul until you tell me I can!"

"Good because I still don't know how to tell any of them." She looked back towards where I was. I leaned in closer. "Especially my dad."

"I think he'll be happy. He likes them." Black Star smiled sweetly at her and grabbed her hand, walking away with her. Them?! What is this 'them'?! I looked over at Noire for answers. Noire was happily eating a cupcake, not paying attention and took the last bite.

"Sooooo good!" She giggled. I dropped my jaw seeing that I was the only one that caught what just happened. She walked past me, totally not paying attention. I followed her rubbing my arm. Them...Wow... How am I supposed to find out what them is? Dad likes a lot of things. Noire all of a sudden turned around and looked at me with wide eyes and then relaxed. "Oh it's just you."

"Yeah it's just me. Hey what does my dad like?"

"Ummm....money.....cookies maybe.....free dinner.....children.....limos...mirrors.....children..... secrets... cats.....tacos.....flowers.....women.....and.....children." Noire went through a mental list. That's it! I know what them is, it's obviously mirrors. Fade did break a lot of mirrors back then. "Why?" Noire looked at me blankly.

"I was just curious." I shrugged. Noire nodded and smiled at me sweetly.

"Ok. Shouldn't you know all that anyways?"

"I do, I just wanted your opinion." Noire nodded again and gave me a hug.

"Oh ok," she mumbled as she rested her head on my chest. "If that's all you wanted."

"Yeah let's go home?"

"Ok," she smiled up at me and held my hand as we walked. I walked us to the car and the two boys followed quietly behind and we drove home. When we arrived home I showed the boys to their rooms and then ran off to find my dad. Noire and Lord Death were talking together in the study when I found him and Noire was giggling.

"Hey dad, what do you love most in the world?"

"Children and your mother." Wow... no Fade and I? Cruel. "I consider you and Fade in the children category." He told me when he saw my face.

"Fade has a secret dad." It occurred to me then as the morning I asked Noire the question popped up into my head. "HOLLY COW!" Noire looked at me in alarm.

"Kid, what's the matter?" She stood up and walked over to me.

"I need to go." I ran out the room quickly and towards the livingroom where Fade was laying on the couch in Black Star's arms. "I know it Fade."

"Know what Kid?" Black Star looked up at me innocently.

"Black Star you got her... you know." Black Star blushed a little and looked away for a second then buried his face in Fade's neck.

"Really? What if I don't know?" He mumbled.

"Ptff, you don't know anything Kid." Fade mumbled.

"Don't doubt me sister." She froze up and stopped breath as her eyes that looked at me told it all.

"Damn." She muttered.

"Can I talk about it now?" Black Star whined.

"NO!" Fade covered her ears.

"Why not?" He frowned and looked up at me then at Fade. "He looks like he seriously already knows."

"Kid I don't want anyone knowing so don't tell anyone ok? I don't want to tell until after the wedding and honeymoon." I laughed and nodded.

"Mkay." I looked over at Black Star, "So party tonight?"

"You got it. Fade, I'm going to go on my bachelor party tonight. We'll get married tomorrow and go to.....can't take you to Italy with everything that's going on over there....hmm....let's see....Japan? Is that alright with you? I can get a little house in the country and we can honeymoon there for a week or two." Black Star looked at Fade.

"Yeah, Ive had enough of Italy for a while. Japan sounds great." She leaned over giving Black Star a kiss then looked over at me. "Do you need him right now or can I have him for a bit longer?"

"I don't mind. I will come get him when I have the boys ready to go."

Fade's p.o.v.

I watched Kid walk out the door and looked up at Black Star. Wow, the red guy was right and this guy is the father of the baby in my belly... I can't endanger my baby... I am gonna have to avoid missions now.. Good thing I completed making Noire a death scythe. I guess the only thing I need to do is tell my dad, and I won't do that until after the honeymoon. So really the baby is safe. What did the red guy want anyways? I know power don't just happen without a price... He just had to make it hard. Black Star was braiding my hair and smiling softly as he concentrated on getting it just perfect. "So....what do you think? A boy or a girl?" He asked me. I remembered what the red goblin told me.

"It's a girl."

"You sound sure about that." Black Star laughed and kissed my cheek as he let my hair go. "What color do you want the nursery for when I start setting it up?" He smiled at me.

"The color of your hair should be the wall color."

"Blue? Ok. Blue it is." He laughed and kissed me gently then looked into my eyes. "I can't believe it....I'm going to be a dad."

"I'm gonna be the mother." I smiled and rubbed my belly. "Isn't it wonderful?"

"I remember you telling me hell no and things like that." Black Star smirked.

"That was before, and this is now." I said softly.

"Well, I'm glad you're happy." He smiled back, and then hugged me. "How long is nine months?"

"Nine months."

"Is that long?" He whined.

"Yes."

"Damn it...." He let me go and put a hand on my belly. "No more missions for you Fade."

"I know." I said softly. "Good thing I finished making Noire a death scythe before this happened."

"Yeah....Who's gonna keep Noire sharp for you Fade? She's going to get out of practice..." He frowned.

"I know who can."

"Oh yeah. Who? Who would you let practice with Noire?"

"It's just a thought.." I smiled. "The new member to our group."

"Hmmm....you trust Kendal with Noire?"

"Yeah, I thought it would give him some good experience because his weapon is like eleven. So Noire would teach him some cool moves. I conceder it a favor. He saved us from going into a trap."

"Hmm...Remind me to thank him later for that." Black Star mumbled moving in to kiss my neck.

"GHAAAA!" I moved away and fell into the floor.

"Fade!" He picked me up and set me down in his lap and quickly did a once over on me. "Are you hurt?!"

"Are you seriously asking me that? I am the girl that walks on glass in her sleep."

"Yeah....I'm going to have to do something about that...." He muttered. "I think I'm going to start locking us in our room so that way you don't get hurt at night when I'm asleep and I can't stop you or protect you."

"Black Star I know this house very well. I sleep walk it like every night and never get hurt." I shrugged.

"But....what if you lose your balance on the stairs or fall over! You could get hurt and it would hurt her too." He bit his bottom lip. "When you start showing, you aren't going to be used to the new weight and you might lose balance."

"I doubt that." I kissed him. "Don't doubt me."

"I-I don't...I won't lock us in if you think you can handle it."

"I can handle it."

"Ok sweetie. Just don't get hurt ok?" He smiled and kissed me again.

"I wont." I giggled and looked over at the tv blushing. "So tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow."

"I can't believe it."

"Don't get cold feet either. That wouldn't be good. Oh! Are you having a bachelorette party tonight?"

"It'll consist of anime and popcorn." I giggled.

"You're a lot sweeter to me now. I think I like this a LOT better." He laughed and kissed my cheek.

"No even better, cookies." I bit my bottom lip as I had a huge craving for them.

"Oh god, you aren't craving THOSE are you?" He laughed and pulled me into another kiss.

"Very!" I sat up and walked off to the kitchen. Black Star followed and got the jar down for me and got out a cookie and handed it to me.

"Guess I need to start keeping some in my pockets." He laughed and watched me.

"Maybe." I reached into the jar and started munching away on them as Kendal and Charles walked into the kitchen. "Oh hi! Black Star meet Charles and Kendal. Boys this is Black Star." I introduced them.

"Oh this is the guy that saved you- holy shit he looks like Adrian." Black Star stared at him. "Never mind," he shook his head and walked over to Kendal. "Thank you for saving my fiancé's life over in Italy when I couldn't." He smiled and offered Kendal his hand to shake.

"No problem it was my pleasure." Kendal shook Black Star's hand and gave a smile. "Yes I do look like Adrian, apparently I was his triplet."

"Interesting. Sorry about Adrian and.....well I'm not going to apologize for Kaleb." Black Star muttered and walked back over to me after ruffling Charles' hair.

"Thanks." Kendal laughed it off.

"Oh, they are gonna live here by the way Black Star." I gave him a smile. "Cool right?"

"Did I tell you that I bought us a house for after we get married tomorrow?" Black Star said quickly.

"N..no." I narrowed my eyes. I see what your doing and I don't like it.

"Well, I did. I've already picked out the rooms for us and for our future children." Black Star smiled at me sweetly. "I think you will like it."

"Have fun getting me out of this house." I smirked and walked out the kitchen.

"Oh I will. I'll have fun with little Edea too."

"Edea?" I turned to look at him and walked up to him. "We are not naming her Edea."

"Ok...how about Wisteria?"

"You are soooo not naming my baby."

"OUR baby." He corrected.

"How about my baby." I giggled and kissed him. "I think.... Kari will do."

"You know what? I like that better." He smiled and leaned in kissing me back. "Kari it is," he mumbled right before he kissed me again.

"Kari Star... It has a nice ring to it." I said softly.

"Yes, yes it does." He smiled and kissed me again.

"I love you." I said leaning in kissing him back and Charles made a grossed out face.

"EWWWW!" Charles ran down the hall and Kendal chased after him.

"Whoops, maybe we should go get a room?" Black Star laughed.

"Nope, last time I got a room with you it ended badly."

"I thought you liked having a baby....or the thought of having a baby in nine months...." Black Star frowned. "Besides, I'm not going to do anything to you. I wouldn't want to hurt Kari."

"So you agree it is a girl now?" I giggled. "Did you know, babies means doctors and I HATE DOCTORS. So-"

"I'll read home birth books and stuff and get lessons and make sure that you won't have to go near a doctor for it."

"I think I am gonna ask Tori to deliver Kari."

"Or that. Can I be in the room when it's time?" Black Star asked with a smile.

"No." I giggled teasing him.

"W-why not! I want to see Kari being born! I want to hold her first!" He pouted.

"You know you wont be holding her first right?" I asked.

"No, I'm holding her first."

"You wont be able to, every doctor knows to hand the baby to the mother first."

"Nope, because I'm cleaning her up, not Tori or you. Besides, you'll be zonked out from childbirth."

"IM GONNA GET TO HOLD HER FIRST. END. OF. DISCUSSION."

"That's what you say now....I think I'll let you believe that until the last second." Black Star laughed.

"Don't mess with me or I wont inform you of the child being born until after a whole day."

"No!" He fell to his knees and grabbed my hands and kissed them. "Don't do that! I beg you!"

"I'll think about it."

"I'll give up on holding her first! I will! I just want to be there!"

"You might be there, you might not."

"Ahhhh! Don't do this to me! KID! TELL HER SHE CAN'T DO THIS!" Black Star shouted for him.

"Fade! WHATEVER IT IS YOU WIN!" Kid yelled as he walked in.

"She won't let me in the room when she's going to give birth to Kari!" He whined looking over at Kid hoping for help.

"You already named the baby- uh nevermind. Come on we are leaving Black Star and Fade still wins."

"Whyyyyyy! I'd support you if you were arguing with Noire about this!" Black Star stood up and walked over to Kid.

"The lady is always right when they are pregnant Black Star." Kid winked and I crossed my arms.

"F-fine." Black Star walked over to me and leaned in giving me a kiss. "Bye Fade. See you when I get home!" He walked over to Kid again.

"See Kari, this is why he wont be in the room, he didn't even say bye to you." I giggled and rubbed my stomach. Black Star looked over his shoulder.

"I didn't know if you would slap me for talking to your belly." He turned around and came back over.

"AHHHHH!" I ran off down the hall.

"BYE MY LOVELIES!" Black Star shouted after me and laughed.

"Cruel, cruel men. Boys can not be trusted..." I muttered and walked into Noire and my bedroom. Noire was watching a movie with some guy throwing knives and forks into people's heads and hanging from chandeliers and didn't even look up at me. I laid down noticing it was Black Butler and watched it with her on my stomach.

"Hey Fade," she said quietly when the intermission came on.

"Hey Noire." I smiled and hugged her.

"The boys gone?"

"Yep, just us girls now."

"Ok. That's good. What's going to happen when you go onto your honeymoon with Black Star? I mean I hope Kid gets sent on a mission but I doubt it."

"Uh-"

"FADE! IT'S PARTY TIME!" Liz yelled and walked in with Maka, Patti, Tsubaki, and Misty following.

"Ahhhhh! It's attack of the non otakus!" Noire giggled and grabbed a pillow.

"Let's play some games!" Patti said excitedly.

"Truth or dare Fade." Noire started watching the movie.

"Truth."

"What's that secret you told Black Star at the airport I pretended not to notice?"

"Huh?" I tensed up.

"You don't have to tell them. Just me." She didn't even look at me as she stared at the TV screen blankly.

"Uh..." What do I tell her? The truth of course! I wouldn't lie to her... I leaned in and told her. Noire froze up when it hit home.

"W-what? Really?" Noire looked at me in surprise.

"Uh-huh." I blushed and the girls leaned in.

"That's a really big secret....I'm happy for you!" She giggled and pulled me into a hug. "I can't believe it! You are going to have so much fun!"

"Shhhhhhh.... Nonsense. I WILL NEVER GET ANY SLEEP!"

"That's when you get a babysitter." Noire giggled. "You can get Kid to babysit."

"SHHHHHHHHH NOIRE THERE ARE SHIPPERS NEAR BY."

"Oops." Noire looked at them as Liz dropped her mug of coffee. Did she just realize my secret?

"OH MY GOSH! FADE! CONGRATULATIONS!" Liz jumped up onto the bed and pulled me into a hug. "YOU AND BLACK STAR ARE GOING TO BE GREAT PARENTS!" Geee, I think she knows.

"SHUSH MY FATHER IS IN THE HOUSE! THIS IS TOP SECRET!"

"Whoops."

"WHAT ARE YOU GIRLS TALKING ABOUT IN HERE?" My door burst open and my dad stood in the doorway.
