Unexpected

X*X(Week 2, Day 6)X*X

"Neku, come on! I'm trying to get there sooner so we can rest sooner!" Joshua complained playfully, smirking at me. I growled under my breath, feeling irritation bubbling under the surface. I was partnered with my killer, but I couldn't do anything about it. The problem was I was inexplicably attracted to him, despite him being my murderer. Now, when we had met, I had felt a certain pull to him, even though he had formed a pact with me without asking, and was an annoying prick.

"I'm coming, Joshua," I grumbled, following the silverette to our resting point. Right now, we were heading to an old hotel to rest for a bit, where there weren't any Player decals to let people see us. He was bound and determined to get me there, despite my protests that I was fine, and that I could keep on fighting Noise. When I had voiced this, however, he had giggled and told me that he was tired, and wanted to rest. He didn't seem concerned about me, shockingly enough. Can you hear the sarcasm in there?

"Are we almost there?" I asked, feeling frustrated that he was so happy and carefree, it seemed, and yet, here I was, partnered with my killer and someone I was attracted to. It was making me feel torn, to be honest. Don't get me wrong, I still like Shiki, but only as a friend. Yes, I know she's my entry fee for this week, but still. I just value her as a good friend.

"Almost, Nekky," he giggled, and I glared at him.

"Do I have to sock you in the arm again? Or is that bruise still a reminder?" I threatened. Last time he had called me 'Nekky', back on day one, I had punched him in the arm hard enough to leave a bruise, despite him being a few inches taller than me.

"No, no, I'm fine," he replied quickly, and then looked at me as we arrived. "We're here. Come on, let's go inside and find an empty room. They usually keep the unused rooms unlocked."

"And you know this, how?" I frowned, quirking a brow at him.

"Whenever I needed to get away for a few days, I came here," he smirked. I rolled my eyes, trying to will away the faint blush that had started to form on my cheeks at his smirk. I followed the silverette as he checked the rooms, and then we finally found an unoccupied room. I went and sat on the bed, pleasantly surprised by the softness of the mattress, and took my headphones off for a moment.

"How long do you need to rest?" I asked, not looking at my partner.

"Oh, we'll see," he said, but I sensed something was off. Right as I looked up, however, I was stunned when my lips met with his. My blue eyes widened, and I jerked back, my face bright red. I automatically scooted back along the bed, closer to the pillows and headboard.

"What the hell, Josh?!" I demanded, noticing his sly look.

"You looked tense," he smirked.

"But that's no reason to kiss me!" I protested, trying to scramble away from him. Joshua wasn't going to have any of that, though, it seemed, as he swiftly straddled me, drawing a sharp gasp from me. I bit my lip hard to stifle a moan that tried to come out when his ass brushed against my cock. I refused to let him know of my attraction to him, no matter what. He leaned in close to my face, brushing his nose against mine before he next spoke.

"Do you honestly think I haven't noticed, Neku?" he murmured, and I blinked in shock before it clicked; he fucking knew this whole time! I tried to push him off, but he didn't move.

"Joshua, get off of me!" I yelled, trying to not let my feelings for him cloud my judgment.

"No, I'm rather content on top of you," he giggled, and my blush deepened.

"What the fuck has gotten into you?!" I barked, making a futile attempt to shove him off of me.

"I know you want me, Neku, and the truth is…I want you, too," he purred, kissing me again. My nerves and hormones went haywire at the confession, and I couldn't help but kiss him back. I felt his tongue run along my bottom lip, drawing a gasp from me. Joshua took the opportunity of my mouth being open to slip his tongue inside, tasting me. I moaned into his mouth, unable to contain the noise any longer.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, shivering as the silverette began to gently run his pale fingers along my sides underneath my shirt. When we parted for air, Joshua pulled my shirt off, and then began to kiss down along my exposed chest. As he did that, I began to unbutton his shirt, and when I finished, he allowed the pale garment to slide off his shoulders, revealing his lightly toned body to me. Joshua suddenly moved his lips to my neck, nipping, sucking, and licking a bunch of small places there. I tilted my head to the side, allowing him more skin to mark, and gave a pleasured cry when he bit down on my collarbone a little harder than before. He licked the bitten spot better, and then pushed me down onto the mattress so I was flat on my back while he was straddling me. That's when I realized how hard I was, and my face burned a deep crimson.

"Seems as thought someone needs some relief," Joshua giggled, and I scowled at him.

"Just hurry up, Josh!" I spat, desperate to have him.

"Don't worry, Nekky, I'll be inside you soon enough," he smirked, and I growled at the nickname, but it soon changed into a yelp when he yanked my cargoes and boxers off.

"What the hell!" I protested, automatically moving my hands to cover myself. Joshua grabbed my wrists and pinned them above my head, though, holding them both in one hand against the headboard.

"You're beautiful, Neku. Don't hide yourself from me," he murmured, kissing me tenderly. I kissed him back eagerly, an involuntary whimper escaping me when the rough fabric of his jeans brushed against my overly sensitive erect cock, creating amazing friction.

"Joshua, please, I need you," I breathed, desperation taking over.

"All right, Neku, I'm going," he whispered, and then pulled off his jeans and boxers, revealing his larger-than-mine erect member. Then he placed three fingers to my lips. "Suck." I complied, using my tongue to thoroughly coating his fingers with saliva. The silverette pulled his fingers from my mouth, and then stuck one in my entrance without warning, making me gasp. "Are you okay?"

"Y-yeah, just warn me next time," I stuttered.

"So you like this, hmm?" he smirked.

"You know I'm gay, what do you expect?" I grumbled. The statement merely made him giggle before he slipped in the second finger, scissoring me widely. I cringed at the feeling, so Joshua kissed me softly, distracting me from the twinges of pain. Then he added the third finger, but this time, instead of feeling more pain, I gave a loud moan as those pale digits brushed against something deep inside of me, making me see stars.

"Found it~" Joshua purred.

"What…was…that?" I asked breathlessly.

"That, Nekky, was your prostate. Very sensitive bundle of nerves, isn't it?" he giggled, scissoring me wider and thrusting his fingers in deeply. Finally, when he felt I was thoroughly stretched, he withdrew his fingers from my ass, drawing an involuntary whine from me at the empty feeling. "Almost ready, Nekky~"

"Stop…calling me that!" I snapped, glaring at him. That's when I noticed he was reaching into the bedside table drawer and fished out a bottle of lube. "How did you know that was in here?"

"I planned this, silly. I typically stay in this room specifically when I come here," he answered, giving me a lecherous grin. "I almost forgot about the lube, to be honest."

"Bastard," I muttered, blushing at his words.

"You know you can't resist me," he pointed out. I didn't say anything, choosing instead to fold my arms over my chest, but it didn't matter. He was right; I couldn't resist him, especially at this point. I heard him pop open the cap on the lube, and then watched as he slicked up his dick before positioning himself at my entrance. "Are you ready?"

"Can't say no at this point, can I?" I sighed, but he leaned in close to me, embracing me as lovingly as a true lover would, and I wrapped my arms around him just as gently.

"Neku, I'll stop if you're not ready," he murmured, his violet eyes sincere, despite the darkness to them from his lust. "After all, contrary to what you may think, I do care about you." I felt my walls kind of crumble at that, and I made my decision.

"I want you, Joshua," I whispered. "Get inside me, now." His eyes glinted even darker with lust at that statement, and he repositioned himself. I nodded when he gave me a questioning look, and he entered me in one smooth thrust, sheathing himself to the hilt. I gave a sharp gasp, and tears quickly formed at the corners of my eyes from the pain of his sudden intrusion. Joshua remained still, waiting for me to adjust, and then I nodded to him. He pulled almost all the way out, just the tip still inside me, and paused, gazing into my blue eyes with his truly sincere violet ones.

"I love you, Neku," he breathed, and then thrust into me deeply, striking my prostate immediately and causing stars to scatter across my vision. I gave a cry of pleasure, the pain of him entering me rapidly melting away into said pleasure with each thrust he gave. Joshua groaned loudly each time he entered me, and each smooth roll of his hips brought me closer and closer to release. I couldn't believe I was already so close, but then again, this was my first time. Joshua was taking my virginity, but I didn't mind at this point. In fact, I wanted this, so I'm glad I said yes.

"Keep…going…! Right there!" I gasped out, grasping his back tightly and digging my short nails in. The silverette didn't seem to mind, though, as he continued to thrust without breaking pace.

"Neku…you're so…fucking tight…" he panted in my ear. At that, my release hit me, and I came without warning, my cum splashing against our stomachs as I screamed with ecstasy. When I came, Joshua was quick to follow with a long, low groan as he bit down gently on my collarbone. His white hot seed filled me, and then he pulled out when his orgasm ended. I winced slightly at the pain in my ass, knowing I would be sore later. Carefully, Joshua pulled me close to him, and we snuggled together.

"I love you, too, Josh," I confessed, and he stiffened for a split second before tightening his hold on me.

"…Thank you," he mumbled, burying his face in my hair. "I was afraid you wouldn't say it back."

"Of course I would. I mean it, too," I replied sleepily, giving a yawn.

"Come on, let's get some sleep, and then we'll go back out there," he said softly, and we went to sleep holding on to each other.

X*X(2 Months After The Game)X*X

It's been two months since the game ended, it now being winter break from school, and I've been miserable the whole time. I've been throwing up for a month now, and just want comfort, if I'm being honest with myself. It's hard when you have no family. After all, my parents passed away after a freak car accident a few years ago, so I was left all alone. Anyway, my friends have checked in on me, Shiki being the most frequent visitor, and they've helped care for me. Today, however, I'm left to fend for myself, as Shiki and Eri are taking Beat and Rhyme shopping in the next town over for the day. But now that I'm alone for a day, I want company. And by company, I mean a certain silverette.

What hurts is that even though Joshua betrayed me, I still miss him. After all, he told me he loved me as he made love to me, and yet he shot me without hesitation at the end of the game as I cried my heart out. I want him here, but I know he won't come. I've invited him to meet us at Hachiko since the game ended, but he's never joined us. I've even had some wet dreams about him, making it difficult to sleep, which is pathetic of me, I think. But even if I don't have the wet dreams, I'm still struggling to sleep, or even eat anything and keep it down. Even before the vomiting started, I wasn't hungry enough to eat anything, all thanks to Joshua and his betrayal. My heart ached for him, but my mind protested furiously.

Sighing heavily, I decided to go see Mr. Hanekoma for some guidance. Besides, I could use some fresh air and his coffee. I got up and dressed myself in my usual attire before looking in the mirror and seeing just how bad I looked. My once vibrant ginger locks were dull, as were my formerly bright sapphire eyes that had dark circles forming beneath them. My pale skin seemed frail, and I was skinny, but I still had some weight to my abdomen, shockingly enough. I gave another heavy sigh as I slipped my headphones and shoes on, and then grabbed my phone and key ring before leaving for WildKat. As I walked through the snowy streets of Shibuya, I thought about Shiki, and how close she had gotten to Beat. Any day now, he'll ask her out, I'm sure of it. I knew she liked him; after all, she knows I'm gay, so I'm not an option for her. Besides, I had admitted to her that I only saw her as a friend, anyway. Finally, I arrived at WildKat, where Mr. H was cleaning some mugs. He looked up as I opened the door to enter the empty café.

"Heya Phones! How ya doing?" he greeted.

"Could be better," I mumbled. He frowned at that, and set down the mug he was cleaning. I sat down in front of him at the bar, and he handed me a cup of my usual coffee.

"What's going on, Neku?" he asked, resting his arms on the counter. I knew he was worried; otherwise he would have just called me Phones.

"I can't help but miss Josh," I admitted, blushing very lightly. Mr. H gave me a sympathetic smile, and placed a comforting hand on my shoulder.

"Well, it's understandable," he said. "From what he's told me and what I saw at the end of the game, you two were really close."

"What did he tell you?" I asked quickly, praying he didn't know about us having sex.

"Just that you two really bonded during your week together," he shrugged. I mentally sighed in relief, and took a sip of coffee. "He felt really bad about the end, actually."

"So, what can I do? I want to see him again," I inquired.

"How about this? I'll tell you some things about J that you should know," the barista suggested. "After all, I think you two will end up together."

"You're too intuitive," I chuckled. "I do want to be with him, despite everything. Is that bad?"

"No, but just be careful if you have sex, though," he warned.

"Uh, why?" I frowned, concerned and beginning to feel the first stirrings of panic.

"Because since he's the Composer, he can get both men and women pregnant," he answered. At my stunned look, he chuckled. "Yeah, I was surprised, too. His father, the Composer before him, was the same. Not that Joshua knows this. He has no idea of this ability, actually. But that's why he was adopted. His birthing father died in childbirth, so he went into foster care for two years until he was soon adopted by an American couple due to his looks."

"Are you serious?" I breathed, my mind racing. If what Mr. H was saying is true, then I could be pregnant with Joshua's child, and only at 16 years old! It would explain the sickness, the exhaustion, my heightened emotions, and the weight still present in my abdomen despite my not eating. I felt the blood drain from my head and a wave of nausea wash over me. I bolted to the bathroom, my hand covering my mouth, and barely made it to the toilet before I practically threw my guts up. Tears of pain and fear welled in my eyes as I vomited, thinking about how Joshua might react. He would never want to see me again, and then I would be all alone…

Eventually, I finished, and flushed the toilet after spitting the last of the bile from my mouth. I rinsed my mouth out with the tap water from the sink, and then staggered out of the bathroom. I wasn't too surprised to see Mr. H waiting for me outside of the bathroom with a glass of water and a chair. He helped me into the chair, and handed me the glass, which I took a drink from with shaking hands.

"Neku, what's going on?" the barista asked gently but firmly, leaving no room for excuses.

"Don't tell Joshua, but…" I trailed off, pausing to swallow, and then croaked, "I'm pregnant with his child…" Mr. H froze when I said this, and stared at me.

"How long has it been since you two had sex?" he questioned quietly.

"Week two, day six," I answered, tears stinging my eyes again.

"You need to tell him, Neku," he urged, but frowned when I cringed.

"Not yet, but I promise I will. Just please don't tell him," I whispered.

"I won't," he promised. "You'd better get home after some rest here. You'll need some sleep after that."

"What should I expect, Mr. H?" I asked softly.

"Well, you won't have major weight gain like a woman, for one," he began. "A little, but nothing major. The child will be petite because of this and Joshua's genes. Also, the morning sickness should be over within a few days. Oh, and the pregnancy will last for six months, due to you being male. If you were a woman, it would still be nine months. But you have about three and a half months until your due date. You'll have the strange cravings over the next several weeks, and you'll be moody. I can send you a timeline of what happens when if you'd like. When you feel anything weird, especially labor starting, you'll need to come here so I can deliver the child. But you have to tell Joshua at some point, okay?"

"I will," I mumbled, and finished off the glass of water before standing. "I'm gonna head home. Thank you for everything, Mr. H."

"No problem, Phones. You gonna be okay?" he frowned, worry lacing his features.

"Yeah, I'll be okay," I murmured, and gave him a two-fingered wave as I left. I managed to make it home safely within a half an hour, and it was only when I shut and locked the front door to my apartment and had taken my shoes off that I heard a very familiar voice speak, one that made me flinch.

"Miss me, dear?" Joshua smirked from where he sat on the arm of the couch. Immediately, my eyes widened as I stared at him before the extreme hurt, anger, and rage boiled over in an instant. He walked over to me, hands in his pockets, that same smirk gracing his lips, and then I snapped.

"YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" I screamed, punching him in the face as hard as I could, managing to strike him in the nose. He staggered back, clutching his now-bleeding nose with one hand, and watched me warily. "I've been waiting for you to come see me, and I've been miserable for the past two months! And you choose now to finally show up?! I've invited you every day to join us at Hachiko, despite what you did! Even after we confessed that we love each other when you made love to me! You shot me twice, and I still care about you! I haven't been able to eat or sleep because I've missed you too damn much for my own good!" I finally stopped screaming at him, my body shaking as I breathed heavily, tears welling up in my eyes for the third time today. The silverette's violet eyes widened when he saw the tears, and he passed his free hand over his nose, healing it instantly before cautiously approaching me. This time, I didn't fight it as he wrapped his arms around me, instead burying my face into his chest and sobbing into his shirt as my hands fisted in the pale blue material. Joshua ran his fingers through my hair soothingly, and eventually managed to calm me. Fucking hormones…

"I'm sorry, Neku, I really am," he whispered, kissing the top of my head. "I never meant to betray you like that."

"Then why did you?" I whimpered, tensing up slightly, still unable to look at him.

"Even I'm not sure why, but I'm really, truly sorry," Joshua answered, his tone sincere and remorseful. I remembered how Mr. H had said before that he felt bad after the game ended, and knew the silverette was being honest. "Can you ever forgive me?"

"…I forgive you," I mumbled, tightening my grip around his waist. "I've missed you too damn much, despite everything you did to me."

"I've missed you, too," he admitted, holding me tighter. "Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?"

"Don't leave me again," I breathed, finally raising my head to look up at him. His violet eyes shimmered with unshed tears, and I pressed my lips to his eagerly, wanting nothing more than to make him happy and be with him. He responded immediately, the kisses he gave me making his desperation apparent. When we parted for air, he gazed into my eyes with a small smile gracing his lips.

"I'll never leave you again, no matter what," he promised, cupping my face with one hand and stroking my cheek with his thumb. Then his expression became worried. "You look terrible, Neku. Are you okay?"

"I said it earlier, I've been getting sick for the past month, and I haven't been eating or sleeping much," I reminded him. "I even got sick while visiting Mr. H."

"Yeah, he said I should visit you, as you really needed me," the silverette told me, and I tensed up in his grip. If he noticed, he didn't ask.

"When was this?" I asked.

"He called me about twenty minutes ago, and told me you'd gotten sick at WildKat, and that you really wanted to see me. The way he said it made it sound urgent, to be honest," he informed me. "What's been going on?"

"I've had a stomach bug for a while, and I've really missed you," I partially lied, feeling sudden exhaustion settle over me.

"I've missed you, too, but let's get you to bed, okay?" Joshua suggested, and picked me up bridal-style, drawing a startled yelp from me. I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck, and held onto him tightly as he carried me to my room. He placed me gently on my bed before starting to leave.

"Where are you going?" I questioned, and he paused, glancing back at me.

"I'm going to sleep on the couch," he replied, his voice sounding almost dejected.

"Don't leave me… You promised you wouldn't," I whispered, reaching out for him.

"Are you sure?" he asked, appearing hesitant.

"I need you," I breathed, and he smiled at me gratefully before climbing into bed with me. "Won't you be more comfortable if you get dressed in pajamas?"

"You don't mind if I wear yours?" He quirked a brow in question.

"It's no trouble. We're about the same size," I shrugged tiredly. The silverette nodded, and then changed into a pair of dark purple sleep bottoms and navy blue t-shirt from my dresser. He then pulled out a set of pajamas for me, consisting of a pair of black and blue checkered sleep pants and a black t-shirt. I got out of bed and began to change, noticing how Joshua averted his eyes with a light blush as I did so. When I was dressed in the warm pajamas, I crawled back into my bed, curling up with Joshua as my eyes closed. Damn, Mr. H was right, I was emotional. Normally I wouldn't be so clingy, nor would I have cried so much in one day. Stupid pregnancy…

"Neku?" Joshua uttered as he wrapped his arms around me, and my eyes slowly opened so I could look at him.

"Yeah?" I mumbled, my eyes involuntarily starting to close again from exhaustion.

"I love you," he murmured, pulling me close and kissing me softly.

"I love you, too, Joshua," I whispered against his lips, and he tightened his grip on me briefly.

"Get some sleep, Neku. I'll be here when you wake up, I promise," he told me, and I gave a single, tired nod before giving in to my exhaustion as the comforter was pulled over us.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

I woke up the next morning, still in Joshua's arms under the comforter. I was shocked that he was still here, like he'd promised, because I honestly had expected him to return to the UG while I slept. Or that it was all a dream. After everything that had happened, I can't be blamed for thinking that. Then my thoughts switched to my pregnancy.

What would happen when I told Joshua? Would he hate me for not telling him initially? Would he leave me? Would he actually support me? These questions and more raced through my mind, and I realized that if I were to tell him, it would have to be sooner rather than later. Tears stung at my eyes at the thought of him possibly leaving me during my time of need, though. I began to shake slightly with fear at the mere thought of him leaving me again, and I guess my trembling woke Joshua up, because the next thing I knew, he was holding me tightly and pulling me up into sitting position as I sobbed into his chest. The silverette silently ran his fingers through my hair, soothing me, and I soon began to calm down. Joshua pulled away and gave me a loving, chaste kiss.

"What was that all about, Neku?" he asked gently, and I sighed heavily.

"I'm scared you're going to leave me again if I tell you," I whispered, lowering my dull blue gaze.

"Neku, I promised you I would never leave you again, no matter what," he reminded me, caressing my cheek.

"I know," I whimpered, starting to cry again out of guilt. "Joshua… I'm sorry, but…I'm pregnant…" The Composer tensed, and I choked out a sob. "Please don't leave me…"

"How is that possible?" he questioned, pulling me back by my shoulders to look me in the eyes.

"Mr. H told me it's because you're the Composer, and that you had no idea of it," I mumbled, trembling in his grasp.

"Neku…" he murmured, and then pulled me close so I could hold onto him, and he gripped me just as tightly as I sobbed loudly, the sound somewhat muffled by his chest. He continued to run his fingers through my hair, and whispered, "I love you," over and over in my ear. Eventually, I managed to calm down, the sobs quieting down to hiccups. Joshua pulled away again, and cupped my face in his hands. "Neku, I'm shocked more than anything, but not angry. I promised I wouldn't leave you ever again, no matter what, and I meant it. I won't leave you in your time of need." My eyes widened at the statement, and as I gazed into his gorgeous violet eyes, I could tell he was being sincere. Immediately, I latched myself to him again, crying out of relief. For fuck's sake, make the crying stop! I'm sick of being an emotional mess!

"Thank you," I said softly when I regained control of my emotions, and he kissed the tip of my nose.

"That's why you've been getting sick and not eating, isn't it? Not because of a stomach bug," he guessed. I nodded, blushing faintly at being caught. "Don't worry, Neku, I'm just glad you're okay. But why weren't you able to sleep?"

"I've been…having wet dreams and nightmares. Wet dreams of you and nightmares of the end of the game," I admitted, still blushing as I lowered my gaze.

"Don't worry, I'm here, and I plan on staying for the entirety of your pregnancy," he assured me, and I blinked up at him with slightly reddened eyes from crying.

"What about after the baby's born?" I pointed out.

"I should be able to take you and the baby back to the UG with me," he shrugged. "But only if you want to. Maybe even sooner if you want."

"You should know the answer to that," I chuckled weakly, smiling at him a bit. My lover smirked back, and then kissed me passionately. I was quick to respond, kissing him back eagerly, and allowing him entry as soon as he pressed his tongue to the seam of my lips. I moaned into his mouth, feeling my blood flowing south. When we parted for air, Joshua straddled me, and I felt his clothed, half-hardened cock pressing against my own, and I gazed up at him with half-lidded eyes. His typically bright violet eyes were darkened with lust, and he licked his lips nervously before speaking.

"Do you want me?" he smirked, his voice hesitant.

"I'm two months pregnant with your child and already horny after a small make-out session. Of course I want you," I growled. "Now fuck me. I have lube in the bedside table drawer."

"So naughty, Nekky~" he purred. "Why would you have lube?"

"…To take care of myself when I was lonely, especially after the wet dreams," I grumbled, blushing a bright crimson. Joshua laughed lightly, but I snapped, "You weren't here, so what was I supposed to do?!"

"Point taken," he chuckled, reaching down to tug off our pajama bottoms and boxers. I helped him, raising my hips to make it easier to remove the offending garments. I gasped sharply at the cold bedroom air that hit my growing erection, and again when he pulled off my t-shirt, shuddering heavily as he pinched and gently twisted my nipples. Joshua teased me, nipping and sucking at my collarbone and neck, leaving several hickies adorning the pale skin there. Eventually, I couldn't take it any longer. After a month and a half of not seeing him, I needed him way too badly.

"J-Josh…hurry it up," I stuttered, giving a startled, un-manly squeak as he stuck a lubed-up finger inside of me without warning after pulling off his shirt. "Ah!"

"Are you okay?" he asked, watching me with a concerned expression.

"You try having a cold finger stuck in your ass after six weeks of no sex, and see how you like it!" I spat, squirming.

"Sorry," he apologized, kissing me lightly. "But you know it'll hurt a lot worse if I don't prep you."

"I know," I growled, becoming impatient. An involuntary whimper escaped me when he slipped in the second finger, scissoring me widely. That's when I felt his hot breath on my crotch, right before he took my member in his mouth. I cried out from the sudden pleasure, and the wet heat surrounding my cock fully distracted me from the pain of being stretched. I could feel my lover smirk as he sucked me off, swirling his tongue around my member in an extremely sensual manner. I felt my release start to approach, and I quickly grabbed his hair, trying to pull him away.

"J-Joshua, I-I'm about to c-cum!" I warned, and he pulled back just in time, adding the third finger as he backed away. Soon after he began to stretch me with all three fingers, I was rocking myself back on his hand, soft moans tumbling past my lips. Joshua withdrew his fingers, and I gave a small whine of protest, making the Composer giggle.

"I'll be inside you soon, Nekky, don't you worry," he smirked, spreading lube on his rock-hard dick and positioning himself at my entrance. "Ready?"

"I've been ready, dammit!" I snapped, so he entered me with one smooth roll of his hips, burying himself to the hilt. My mouth open in a silent scream, and Joshua kissed me lovingly to distract me from the sudden pain. The only noises in the room were the sounds of our lips meeting over and over, and my harsh breathing as I struggled to adjust. I could even feel Joshua's body trembling slightly against mine as he fought to control himself so he wouldn't hurt me. Finally, I'd had enough waiting, and knew that if he started moving, it would ease the pain. "M-move, Josh…"

"Gladly," he grinned wolfishly, and began to move in a series of slow, smooth thrusts. It was too slow of a pace for me at this point, though.

"Faster, Josh!" I ordered, and he chuckled lowly in my ear before replying.

"As you wish~" he purred, and then pulled out almost completely, just the tip still inside of me, drawing a whimper from me before he snapped his hips forward, slamming into me and striking my prostate immediately. As soon as he struck it, I cried out from the wave of pleasure that crashed over me, causing stars to scatter across my vision. The silverette then started to thrust hard, fast, and deep into me, repeatedly striking my prostate over and over as I became a moaning and mewling mess beneath him.

"Neku, you're still so tight," Joshua panted in my ear, and then slipped his hand in between us, stroking my weeping member in time with his swift thrusts, making me cry out again. My release rushed towards me as he stroked and thrust into me with a synchronized pace.

"J-Joshua…I'm g-gonna—" I started to stutter, but the Composer sealed his lips over mine in a passionate kiss, cutting me off.

"We'll come together," he breathed against my lips. He gave an especially hard thrust when he said that, and I couldn't hold back any longer. I came with a loud scream, my cum spattering against our stomachs, and Joshua was quick to cum as well, his white hot seed filling me. The silverette started to pull out, but I grabbed him by the backs of his thighs, causing him to pause.

"Don't…" I whispered, blushing a deep crimson. At his questioning glance, I admitted, "It feels good…to have you…inside me…"

"Then I'll stay," he smiled softly, pulling me closer. "Are you okay, though?"

"Yeah, I'm fine," I mumbled sleepily, suddenly realizing how tired I was again. Joshua kissed me tenderly, and I kissed him back, but then we were interrupted by my stomach growling.

"Sounds like someone's hungry," the Composer chuckled, and I groaned.

"I'm so tired, though…" I whined.

"Then rest while I make something," he urged, but I sighed.

"I won't be able to sleep without you," I admitted, lowering my gaze. "I've been struggling to sleep as it is…"

"How about you rest on the couch while I make something, then?" he suggested, tilting my face so I could look at him.

"All right," I conceded, and the silverette pulled out, making me immediately miss the filling sensation. He then pulled on his boxers and the purple sleep bottoms from earlier before helping me put on a pair of boxers and a clean t-shirt. Suddenly, he picked me up bridal-style, and I gave another startled yelp as I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"Don't worry, I won't drop you," he assured me as he carried me out to the living room and set me on the couch. Joshua covered me up with a blanket while I propped myself up with a few pillows. "What would you like to eat?" he asked.

"Is pancakes okay? I know it seems silly, but—" I was cut off with a small kiss.

"It's not silly at all. It actually sounds good to me, too," he said, heading into the kitchen. "I'll bring them out to you when they're ready."

"Thank you," I mumbled, feeling pathetic. As I rested on the couch, I thought about how everything had turned out so far. Joshua was back in my life, after everything that had happened, I was pregnant with his child, and he had completely accepted and supported it. It was still so surprising, but I was grateful.

"Neku, the pancakes are ready," Joshua's voice called from the kitchen, and before I could start to get up, he came out with two plates of pancakes. He handed me mine, and I realized the pancakes had chocolate chips in them. Damn, he's good. I love chocolate chip pancakes! I thanked him gratefully, and he smiled warmly at me as I began to eat.

"So, Neku, when is the baby due?" the Composer asked, his tone almost eager, and I paused mid-bite. Setting down my fork on the plate, I lowered my gaze.

"I'm due to give birth in mid April," I replied, feeling awkward about the words. After all, guys don't typically give birth, ya know.

"So soon?" he blinked in surprise.

"This pregnancy will only last six months, according to Mr. H," I explained, not looking at him. "He said it's because I'm male. Otherwise, it would last nine months."

"Hey," the silverette said suddenly after some silence. I glanced up at him, and he gave me a reassuring smile. "I'm here for you, and I've already got someone covering me while I'm gone. I'm won't leave you." I could feel tears burn in my eyes at his comforting words, and Joshua noticed, too. He took our plates and set them on the coffee table before pulling me close to him in a warm, comforting embrace. I held him tightly, whimpering as I struggled to keep the sobs at bay. Joshua ran his fingers through my hair like he'd done before, helping to calm me, and then he whispered in my ear, "I love you, and I will never leave you ever again. Trust me, I don't care if you're pregnant. In fact, I think it's hot." I blushed at that, the tears finally stopping as I looked up at him.

"Pervert," I muttered with a small smile, and he smirked.

"Yes, but you love me for it," he giggled, kissing my nose.

"I do love you, but you're still a pervert," I smiled at him. My lover laughed lightly, and then handed me back my plate.

"Now, eat up Nekky, then we'll go back to bed. After all, both you and the baby need food, and you need to catch up on your sleep," he reminded me, and I smiled at him before resuming eating. As I ate, however, I heard my phone chime, signaling a text. Picking it up, I saw Shiki had texted me. It read, 'Neku, we're really sorry about yesterday. How are you holding up today?' I tapped out a reply.

'I'm doing much better, so you don't need to visit at all. I'll text you when I can,' my text read. I sent it, and soon got a reply.

'Okay, just let us know if you need anything!' she had sent me with a smiley face at the end. I sighed, knowing I probably wouldn't be able to see her or my other friends ever again.

"Who was that?" Joshua asked as I set my phone down.

"It was Shiki. She was apologizing for not coming by yesterday, asked me how I was doing, and told me to let her know if I needed anything," I answered, taking another bite of my pancakes.

"Does she know about what happened between us back during our week?" he questioned, and I shook my head.

"She knows I'm gay, but that's it," I shrugged. "That's why I think she's going for Beat. Either him or Eri. Wouldn't surprise me if she ended up dating her best friend." Joshua giggled at my assumption.

"I can find out for you at some point, if you'd like," he offered.

"Nah, it's fine. She'll tell me whenever it happens," I replied, finishing my pancakes. The silverette took our plates and put them in the dishwasher before returning back to the couch with me.

"Are you still tired?" he inquired, and I yawned, answering his question. He chuckled and picked me back up, bridal-style again, and carried me to my room, where he placed me on the bed and curled up with me under the comforter. I snuggled up to him immediately, giving a content hum.

"I love you, Joshua," I whispered against his bare chest.

"I love you, too, Neku," he murmured, tightening his grip around my waist. "Sleep well." I was soon lulled to sleep by the soothing sound of his steady heartbeat, a small, sleepy smile on my face.

X*X(2 ½ Months Later)X*X

"Jeez, Josh, I'm huge! How can you stand being around me?" I complained as I looked at my reflection in the bathroom mirror. Mr. H had lied, I just know it. After all, he had said I would have a little weight gain, not a lot! I looked like I had eaten a watermelon! I was one month away from giving birth, as strange as it sounded, and the baby had started moving quite a bit during the past month.

As for my friends, I had texted them before the end of the winter break and claimed I had moved to a cousin's home in America, which they believed. In actuality, I had moved in with Joshua to live with him. I was relieved at that, because they knew I did have a cousin in America, but what they didn't know is that she passed away shortly before the game. Shiki had even wished me the best, claiming to understand my reasons.

"Nekky, you look amazing, hot, and sexy, so stop," he reassured me, coming into the bathroom and wrapping his arms around my waist, resting his hands on my swollen stomach. He kissed the side of my neck, and I turned in his arms to kiss him back, but then the baby gave a few kicks, making me break off with a small grunt. "Let's go see Mr. H, just in case," he suggested.

"Good idea," I agreed, so he texted Mr. H to let him know we were teleporting there that way no one would see me. There was soon a beep from the orange flip phone, and Joshua nodded to himself.

"He's cleared any customers out, so we're clear," he told me, and he picked me up, bridal-style as usual, and then teleported to WildKat, where Mr. H was waiting.

"Heya Phones, J," he greeted, smiling at us. He noticed my swollen abdomen, and his eyes widened slightly from behind his shades.

"Sanae, do you know why he's showing so much? You had told him he wouldn't have too much weight gain or anything," Joshua frowned, carefully setting me down on the exam table in the back room, where I would be examined.

"I have my suspicions, but I'll need to check," he replied. Amazingly enough, Mr. H happened to have an ultrasound machine in this room, among other medical supplies. He had told me he had it for just in case something happened, especially after Joshua was born and he had told the older man he was gay. The barista had me lie down on the table, and Joshua held my hand as the cold gel was squeezed onto my stomach, making me flinch.

"Dammit, that's cold!" I hissed, causing Mr. H to laugh a little.

"It tends to be that way, sorry," he apologized. He then placed the scanner thing for the ultrasound against my stomach, and immediately, a whooshing sound echoed in the room, and I watched the image on the monitor from where my head was leaning on Josh's shoulder, unable to tell what everything on there was, until I started to see three similar shapes.

"Wait a sec… Are those…" I trailed off, unable to finish.

"Yep. Congrats, Neku, it looks like you guys are actually having triplets," Mr. H told us. I didn't hear anything after that, as I was shocked. I felt dizzy and lightheaded, and then I passed out, hearing a terrified cry of, "Neku!" as the darkness enveloped my conscious.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

"Neku?" a very familiar voice called out to me in my unaware state. I struggled against the thick blanket that was my unconsciousness, trying to wake up. "Please, Neku, wake up…" I could hear the sorrow in the plea, and I pushed even harder to regain consciousness. Suddenly, I broke through as my eyes snapped open, and I jolted forward with a sharp gasp.

"Neku!" My eyes darted about, seeking the owner of the voice who had called my name, and then they settled on the anxious form of Joshua.

"…Joshua?" I mumbled, and he immediately grabbed me and held me close to him.

"Dammit, Neku, you scared the fucking shit out of me!" he hissed in my ear, and I was startled when I felt him trembling slightly from small sobs. I wrapped my arms around him, and he tightened his grip on me, being mindful of my stomach. Which, I might add, felt larger now.

"How long was I out for?" I whispered, nervous of the answer.

"Two weeks," he told me as he pulled away, his eyes a bit puffy, and I froze.

"What?" I couldn't believe I was out cold for two weeks! "Are the babies okay?"

"Yes, they're fine, and Sanae managed to get the genders while you were unconscious," he replied.

"What are they?" I asked eagerly, and Joshua giggled, brightening at my change in mood.

"Two boys and a girl," the silverette answered, and I felt happiness swell up inside me, but then I lowered my gaze, finally realizing how worried I'd made my lover.

"I'm sorry for worrying you, Joshua," I murmured, and he pulled me into another embrace, and then pulling back to kiss me.

"You terrified me more than anything, Neku, but all that matters is that you and the triplets are okay," he assured me in a soft voice.

"Does Mr. H know why I was out for so long?" I inquired, and he nodded.

"He said it was because you were so mentally shocked by the realization you were having triplets that your mind wasn't ready to cope yet, so you went into an unconscious state to sort of…remedy that," he explained, and I frowned.

"Doesn't make much sense, but whatever," I shrugged. That's when there was a knock on the door, and Mr. H came in.

"Heya Boss, I see you're awake," he greeted.

"Yeah, Joshua already told me everything," I said. "Am I allowed to go home now, Mr. H?"

"Let me just make some final checks on you, and then you can," the barista smiled. He then proceeded to check my heart, pulse, and respiratory rates, and temperature, and then he had me pull up my shirt some so he could do an ultrasound on me. Again, I flinched slightly at the coldness of the gel, and then he pressed the scanner thing to my swollen abdomen. While the whooshing and the sounds of four heartbeats beating in unison echoed in the room, Mr. H watched the screen as he scanned. Finally, he looked at us with a pleased smile. "The triplets seem perfectly fine, and healthy as can be at this point. This should be the last time you need to get checked until you go into labor, Neku, so you'll have to stay home on bed rest. Try not to do too much, you hear me?"

"I understand," I nodded. "Thanks again, Mr. H."

"Anytime, Neku, anytime," he smiled. "Now get him home, J, and make sure he gets lots of rest."

"I will, Sanae," my lover agreed, and then he picked me up, bridal-style, before teleporting us back home. The Composer set me down on our bed before crawling over me and pulling me close to him, kissing me slowly, lovingly, and deeply. When he pulled away, I felt his hardening cock poke my thigh.

"Got you hard already, huh?" I whispered. "What happened to me not doing too much?"

"What can I say? You're hot and sexy as fuck when your stomach is round with our children," he smirked back, and I gaped at him.

"You're shitting me, right?" I said, my cheeks darkening with embarrassment. "I'm not hot, I'm fat as hell!"

"Don't you dare say that, Neku," Joshua chided me. "You're beautiful, and I want you, right now."

"Pervert," I muttered, but let him kiss me anyway. I couldn't resist him; his kisses were too damn addicting. Joshua slid his tongue into my mouth, and we moaned into each other's mouths as he tasted me. As we kissed, I felt him pull off my sweatpants and boxers in one fluid motion, and I heard him unzip his jeans before removing them with his boxers, too. He kissed me passionately, a series of long, slow, and thorough kisses that made my heart yearn and ache for him. When we parted for air, he took advantage of my breathless state to tug off my shirt, and then he unbuttoned his and let it slide off his pale shoulders. Now we were both bare to each other, but I felt incredibly self-conscious due to him gazing at my nude body. Mainly my stomach. I looked away, my cheeks burning, but Joshua grabbed my chin gently and forced me to look at him.

"Don't be so embarrassed, Neku," he urged, smiling softly. "You're beautiful." Without giving me a chance to reply, he kissed me again, passionately.

"…You're such a sap," I mumbled once he pulled back. Smirking, he reached his hand into the bedside table drawer, where he fished out the bottle of lube. Slicking up three fingers, he pressed one against my entrance, waiting until I'd visibly relaxed before slipping it inside of me. Joshua pumped his finger in and out of me, soon adding a second finger and scissoring me widely. I gave a tiny whimper at the feeling of being stretched, so my lover sealed his lips over mine to soothe me. It worked, and I relaxed again as he slid in the third finger and scissored me again, stretching my entrance as wide as he could without hurting me. When the silverette felt I was thoroughly prepared, he withdrew the pale, slender digits, drawing a whine from me.

"Almost ready~" Joshua purred as he lightly rolled me over onto my knees, beginning to slick up his cock with lube. Soon enough, he pressed his hardened cock against my entrance, gripping my hips from behind me. "Ready, Nekky?"

"Just fuck me already, Josh!" I spat, but immediately gave a loud gasp when he swiftly entered me, burying himself to the hilt. A long, low moan escaped past my lips, immense pleasure washing over me at the filling sensation my lover's cock provided. Joshua waited for me to adjust, but even so, I could feel his hips trembling as he resisted the urge to thrust into me. "Move, Josh," I finally gasped. He kissed the back of my neck, smirking against my pale skin before beginning to thrust deep, hard, and fast into me, like a sex-crazed animal. I cried out loudly with each thrust he gave me, his cock striking me deeply until he found my prostate. When that happened, I shrieked and gripped the sheets tightly, desperate to be able to hold Joshua as he fucked me. Not quite feasible because of how far along I was in my pregnancy with the triplets, but I would have to make do with the sheets.

"So…tight…Neku," Joshua panted in my ear in between thrusts. He nipped the back of my neck, curing the sting with his tongue and kissing the spot better. I felt him reach around my waist and begin to stroke my neglected dick in time with each roll of his hips against mine. The added pleasure tore a moan from my throat, and then I screamed Joshua's name as I came, my cum spattering onto the sheets. The Composer was quick to follow with a loud groan, clamping down on my shoulder as he released his white hot seed deep inside of me. Once our orgasms had finally ended, Joshua pulled out of me before shifting around me so we were facing each other and so I didn't have to move. He wrapped his arms around me, holding me close, and then moved one hand to where our children laid. There were a few soft kicks in response to his touch, making him giggle and our unborn children to kick more.

"They really seem to like your voice," I murmured, looking into his loving violet eyes.

"I would hope so. After all, they'll hear me often, seeing as I'm their father," he smirked. He kissed me tenderly, making me melt in his embrace, but then I felt a particularly hard kick, making me wince. "Are you okay?" Right after he asked me that, a sharp pain ran through me, and I gasped.

"No, I think they're coming," I whimpered, and his eyes widened. "Summon Sanae, I don't want to move." Joshua nodded, and quickly sent off a summon, which took the form of a silver fox before darting away. While we waited, Joshua quickly got dressed, and then helped me put my shirt on. We didn't even bother with my boxers or sweatpants, considering they would have to come off anyway so I could give birth. Then the Composer cleaned up my cum from the sheets before sitting next to me once he'd propped me up with the pillows and covered my lower half with a sheet. He held my hand as I gripped his tightly, the contractions already hitting me hard and fast. I yelped when a particularly painful contraction hit, squeezing my lover's hand even harder when my water broke, as strange as that sounds. Finally, Mr. H appeared after a half an hour, and he had some blankets and medical equipment with him.

"Damn, that was quick," he commented. "You ready for this, Neku?"

"I don't have much of a choice, now do I?" I bit out, wincing at another contraction.

"No, you don't. But try and mentally be ready for the pain. It may hurt now, but wait until you have to birth them," he advised. I growled at him, but it swiftly morphed into a cry of pain when another contraction rolled through me. "Let me check to see how far along you are." The barista slipped on a glove, and then stuck it inside of me. After a couple seconds, he withdrew it, and said, "You're already nine centimeters dilated, Neku, so you're close to pushing. Joshua, you'll need to help me."

"No! I don't want him to leave me!" I protested, but Joshua pulled away, kissing my temple as he carefully pried his hand free of my death grip.

"I'll be here the whole time, Neku, I promise. I just need to help Sanae with delivering our children," he told me soothingly as he wiped my forehead free of the sweat that had collected there. Tears of pain pricked at my eyes when another powerful contraction hit, and I cried out.

"It hurts so bad!" I wailed.

"I think it's time to start pushing, Neku," Mr. H informed me, and I nodded weakly. Look, I know I've fought hundreds of Noise, taken on more powerful ones, and received a lot of damage during the tougher fights, but that doesn't mean I have the highest pain tolerance. Especially if it's this kind of extreme pain. Mr. H guided me into beginning to push, and I complied, pushing as hard as I could. This process went on for a several minutes, when finally, I felt a sharp pain between my legs, and an agonized scream tore its way out of my throat when I pushed out our first child. "Congratulations, Neku, the first one's a boy," Mr. H announced, but all I could do was give a tiny smile in response as I tried to catch my breath from the effort and agony. I watched him pass the wailing infant to Joshua, who wrapped him up in a royal blue blanket after snipping the umbilical cord. Now to get the other two out, ugh…

"You can do this, Neku," Joshua urged, sitting next to me while holding our son.

"If you ever fucking cum inside of me again, I'll fucking castrate you, god damn it!" I snarled, making the silverette flinch.

"Neku, you still have to push out two more," Mr. H reminded me. I glared at him silently, but began to push anyway. It was the same as the first one, and soon, I had pushed out our second born, which was the other boy, according to the barista. He came out crying loudly, and Joshua wrapped him up in a light blue blanket once Mr. H had snipped the umbilical cord. At this point, I was exhausted, and I could barely take the pain wracking my body. I flopped back against the pillows, breathing heavily as another contraction rolled through me.

"I can't… It hurts…too much…" I panted, tears streaking down along my cheeks.

"Neku, I know it does, but you need to keep going," Joshua encouraged me. "I promise, after this, it's over."

"It hurts!" I cried out painfully, but pushed anyway, trying to hurry it along. Once more, I pushed for multiple ten second intervals, and then Mr. H informed me that he could see the head.

"Come on, Neku, you just need to pass the shoulders, and then I can pull her out from there!" the dark-haired man ordered. Frustrated, and in agony, I pushed as hard as I could, putting more effort than I had before into it, and screamed at the top of my lungs. Finally, I felt that sharp pain of the shoulders passing for the third time, and then she was pulled out. I faintly heard the sound of her umbilical cord being cut, and then it registered that she was screaming her little lungs out to clear them. "Congratulations, Neku. You're now the mother of three beautiful children." I barely managed to even look at Mr. H, for I was that exhausted. Soon after he said that, I passed out, unable to remain awake for any longer.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

When I woke up, it was to the sound of one of my babies crying. My eyelids fluttered open, and as my sight became clearer, I saw Joshua gently soothing the younger boy, judging by the light blue blanket. I smiled slightly when my lover managed to quiet him back down, and he carefully placed the infant back into his crib.

"There, now get some more sleep," he murmured. Silently, I waited to see if the silverette would notice my waking up, and when he turned, he did. "Neku!" he gasped.

"You've really taken on the parenting roll, huh?" I smiled, my voice soft. Joshua's violet eyes began to water, and he quickly ran over to the bed and hugged me tightly. I hugged him back, wrapping my arms around him weakly. I guess my body was still trying to recover.

"I was so worried, Neku…" the Composer mumbled against my neck. "I didn't know if you would wake up… Especially after two days had passed and you hadn't woken up…"

"You know I'm stronger than that, Josh," I reminded him.

"I do know, but seeing you in so much pain hurt me, too," Joshua whispered, pulling away to look me in the eyes. He kissed me tenderly, lovingly, and then smiled when he backed away slightly. "Do you want to meet our children? I know they're eager to finally see their mother."

"Of course," I nodded. Joshua got up and careful wheeled the crib over, which made me thankful that we had gotten a crib with lockable wheels. He then picked up the oldest boy, still wrapped in the royal blue blanket, and placed him in my arms.

"This is our first born," Joshua murmured, and I smiled softly as I studied his features as he cooed happily in my arms. He looked like he was half of each of us, with his fuzzy ginger hair that had faint silver streaks. His eyes, though, were beautiful. The left was violet, like Joshua's, while the right was blue, like mine. He was pale, except for his rosy cheeks, which made me chuckle quietly. "I didn't name them yet, by the way. I was waiting for you." My lover's words made me look at him, surprised.

"Really?" I blinked, and he nodded. "Then I want to name this one Tenshi."

"I like that," he smiled.

"Knew you would," I smirked. I kissed the infant's forehead gently before letting Joshua put him back in the crib. He then placed the middle child in my arms, the youngest boy. He was similar to his brother in complexion, with his pale skin and rosy cheeks, but his hair and eyes were different. While Tenshi had ginger hair and two different colored eyes, this little boy had silver fuzzy hair and sapphire blue eyes. "What should we name him?" I asked, even though I had a name in mind already.

"I'm thinking…Kaze," the Composer finally said, making me blink in surprise. "What?"

"That's the name I was thinking of," I admitted, and Joshua smiled.

"Great minds think alike," he shrugged. I nodded in agreement before softly kissing Kaze's forehead and allowing Joshua set him back in the crib. Finally, he passed me our daughter, and I immediately knew she would be a looker when she was older. She had fuzzy ginger hair, violet eyes like her father, and pale skin with rosy cheeks, just like her brothers. She was certainly a beautiful little baby girl.

"You name her," I murmured, gently pressing my lips to her forehead. Joshua appeared to think about it for a bit, and then spoke.

"How about Rayne?" he suggested. After a moment, I nodded, feeling that it fit her perfectly.

"It's perfect," I smiled, but then a yawn escaped me.

"Tired already, huh?" Joshua guessed, and I nodded. "Then get some sleep. I'll let Sanae know you're awake, and take care of the triplets while you rest."

"Thanks, Josh," I mumbled, my eyelids already starting to droop closed. I felt him take Rayne out of my arms, and then he kissed my forehead. "Love you…"

"Sleep well, Neku," he whispered. "I love you, too."

X*X(9 Years Later)X*X

"Tenshi, Kaze, Rayne! Time for dinner!" I called, my large Reaper wings shuffling slightly. The three children looked up from their combat practice, and then grinned.

"Coming, Mom!" they answered, and quickly ran over to come inside. As they got ready to eat, I thought about how the past nine years have just flown by. Over the years, Tenshi, Kaze, and Rayne had matured greatly, despite being so young. My guess was that it was from being born with the Composer's and my genes. We had raised them to respect life and death equally, even if they were on the latter side. About six years after they were born, their hearts stopped on their own, allowing them to become Reapers. Joshua and I had refused to make them play the Reapers' Game, due to their youth and them being our children. Recently, however, they had begun training so they could take part in the Games against the Players. I had a feeling no Players would win if any of the triplets became a Game Master.

Their wings, surprisingly, hadn't stayed black like they should have. They had changed to a silvery white color in the design of the Reaper's wings at the age of eight years old, but weren't as big as mine or Joshua's. Not yet, anyway. This was probably because they were still so young. Joshua's wings, when he showed them, were large, white, and feathered, whereas mine were slightly smaller than his and looked like a typical Reaper's, but this was due to my rank as his Conductor. Yes, two years after the triplets were born, I had asked Joshua to make me his Conductor. That meant he had to kill me again, but at least it was expected and wanted this time.

Each of the triplets, though, had developed their own personalities over time. Tenshi was similar to me, in that he was quiet and soft spoken. His fuzzy hair from infancy had naturally grown into my hair style, and his blue and violet eyes had gained a certain seriousness and sense of knowing to them. He was very much like me, but was also cunning like Joshua. His Imagination had to be the most powerful of the three, as he had a lot of power to him in combat so far, and that was just while he was starting learn. He even channeled his Imagination through Pins like me, but his preference was fire pins. As for his Noise form, he had gained the form of a dragon.

Kaze was a lot like his brother in personality, but the main difference was he was more caring. He cared a bit too much about his brother and sister, and that often got in the way of his training. He would overly fret if they took a blow, and then he would be easily overcome. His silver hair had grown out to be long and straight, and it hung down to about the middle of his back. Sometimes he tied it back in a ponytail, but not often. In combat, his Imagination was channeled through a pair of fans. His Noise form was a griffin.

Rayne had grown into a beautiful girl, and her ginger hair, similar to mine in color, had grown out in a style exactly like her father's. She actually looked like a young female version of Joshua, but with orange hair. She certainly acted like him, too. It was funny to think about it, to be honest. Her personality was quirky, and she often had a mischievous twinkle in her eyes. She liked to trick Tenshi often, as Kaze was more sensitive to her teasing, and she tried to rile her oldest brother up because of his quiet nature. In combat, her Imagination was channeled through her fists, which were covered by black leather fingerless gloves. Her Noise form was a phoenix.

My Noise form, on the other hand, was a kitsune, and as long as I kept my Pins on me when I changed form, then those Pins would be the base for my attacks.

But although a lot of things had changed for Joshua and me over the years, one thing hadn't: our sex life. Sometimes Joshua seemed insatiable, but I didn't mind in the slightest. Surprisingly, I hadn't gotten pregnant again since the triplets had been born, and Mr. H had explained that that was because it was a one-time thing. I wouldn't become pregnant again, which was fine by me. Though I did have to admit, I missed the early days of when my babies were helpless and depended so heavily on Joshua and me. Okay, I take it back. I would like to be pregnant again. I decided I would have to ask Mr. H about it sometime soon. My opportunity would come sooner than I had thought, though, as the barista would be coming by to pick up the triplets after dinner so Joshua and I could have the weekend alone. That's when there was a knock on the door, and then Mr. H walked in, waving hello.

"Heya guys," he greeted, and then addressed the triplets. "You guys about ready for a weekend of training?"

"Yeah! I am so gonna beat Tenshi this time!" Rayne grinned. She had yet to beat her oldest brother in combat, and always pushed herself so she could keep trying. As for Kaze, they were evenly matched, and their training sessions often ended in a draw.

"Keep dreaming, Rayne," Tenshi smirked, crossing his arms.

"Don't worry, we'll take him on together if need be," Kaze assured his sister.

"But then it wouldn't be fair!" she whined.

"Don't worry, you three will get plenty of practice while with Sanae this weekend," Joshua assured them. "Now, do you all have everything you'll need to get you through the weekend?"

"Yeah, I made sure they did," I answered for them. "Now go get your backpacks, you guys. You don't want to keep Mr. H waiting, do you?" They shook their heads before I began to herd them toward the door. Joshua started to clean up while I did that, which was good. It meant I could hopefully ask Mr. H my question.

"Something on your mind, Phones?" the barista asked, and I blinked at him in surprise. "I can read you easily. Not as easily as J, but anyway. What's up?"

"I'll tell you once the triplets have gone ahead," I said under my breath. We got to the door, and Tenshi, Kaze, and Rayne grabbed their backpacks. "All right, you three, behave for Mr. H, or else you're in big trouble when you get home, you hear?"

"Yes, Mom," they chimed in unison.

"Good. Now go on ahead. I need to ask Mr. H something," I told them, and they began to leave. "And be careful! I love you guys!"

"Love you, too, Mom!" they called back before leaving to WildKat. Once they were gone, I turned to the Producer with a sigh.

"Don't worry about them too much, Phones. They have such strong Imaginations that they can handle the Noise if need be," Mr. H assured me. "Now, what was it you wanted to talk to me about?"

"I want to become pregnant again," I murmured, a faint blush covering my cheeks as I spoke. The dark-haired man's eyes widened slightly before he smirked.

"I was wondering when you'd try to find out if you and Josh could have another kid," he chuckled. "As long as you truly desire it, then it should happen."

"Thanks, Mr. H," I nodded, a grateful expression on my face. "Better get going before they try to break into the coffee stash." He laughed loudly, and then left to WildKat after waving farewell. Once he was out of sight and the door was shut, I felt Joshua's presence behind me before he wrapped his arms around my waist as he began to kiss along the side of my neck.

"What were you talking to Sanae about?" he purred. I tilted my head to the side to allow him more access, but didn't say anything. God forbid if I told him. I didn't want to ruin the weekend, but I also knew I'd have to say something sooner rather than later. "You know I can make you tell me, Neku…" he whispered in my ear. I shivered as his warm breath ghosted over my ear, and decided that I should tell him. Turning in his arms, I wrapped my arms around his neck before speaking.

"Josh, how would you feel if I wanted another baby?" I asked. The Composer blinked in surprise, and was quiet for a few seconds before replying.

"I thought we couldn't after the triplets," he said.

"I was asking Mr. H about it, and he said if I desired it enough, it would happen," I explained. Joshua smiled at my statement, and I realized he wanted another baby, too.

"As long as you want this, then I'll support you," he told me, pulling me into a hug. When he kissed my neck again, I shivered, but it worsened at his next words. "Let's make a baby, Nekky~"

"Pervert," I whispered, and I felt his cheeky grin against my neck.

"But you love me for it," he giggled before picking me up bridal-style and rushing us off to our bedroom. He laid me down on the bed, kissing me lovingly and running his hands along my chest beneath my shirt as he straddled me. When his hands rubbed my nipples, I moaned into his mouth, allowing him access into mine. Our tongues danced and entwined, and the occasional harsh nip to my lips told me Joshua wanted this badly. We hadn't been able to have sex in a couple months, and I knew how insatiable he was sometimes. Sure, we'd been able to sneak in a few hand jobs and blowjobs here and there, but it just wasn't enough. Damn, I'll be sore after this weekend…

Joshua pulled away to remove my shirt, and I unbuttoned his once mine was gone, allowing him to shrug off the article of clothing. His hands caressed their way to my waist, where he began to tug at my pants as he shifted off of me to get the clothes off. I lifted my hips to aid him, and he pulled off both my pants and boxers in one go. Once I was completely exposed to him, he straddled me again and began to kiss down along my jaw line, to my collarbone, and then to my chest, where he latched onto one of my nipples, licking, nipping, and sucking at the nub to harden it. I moaned and shivered beneath him, shuddering heavily when he hummed against my nipple. He switched to the other, and I whimpered pathetically, especially when he began to stroke my hardening member.

I bit my lip to try and stifle the noises I was making, but the silverette put a quick stop to that. He nipped my bottom lip, tugging gently before releasing it and kissing my lips briefly.

"Don't do that, Neku. That's my job~" he purred, making me blush. In frustration, I grabbed at his jeans, and swiftly unbuttoned and unzipped them before yanking the offending clothing down to his knees along with his boxers. "Impatient, aren't we?"

"Shut it, Josh!" I snapped, embarrassed. "It's been two months, and hand jobs and blowjobs are NOT enough."

"I agree," Joshua giggled, making my heart flutter. "Let's fuck." He shimmied his jeans and boxers off completely, and we both moaned at the feeling of our erections pressed against each other as he straddled me again. Kissing me again, he managed to fish out the lube from the bedside table drawer and uncap it. Soon enough, I felt his slick finger pressed against my entrance, so I relaxed so it wouldn't hurt as much. He inserted the digit, and thrust it in and out several times so I could adjust. I gripped his shoulders when he slipped in the second finger, scissoring me widely. This went on for a little bit until he added the third one, and I whimpered as he began to seek out my prostate. His fingers curled and straightened, and then the tips brushed against it, making me cry out in pleasure.

"There, Josh!" I gasped. He smirked widely at my response, scissoring me a few more times before withdrawing his fingers. A needy whine escaped me at the empty feeling, and Joshua giggled.

"I'll be inside you soon enough, Neku," he purred teasingly as he slicked up his erection. I growled in frustration before pushing him back on the mattress and straddling him. "Neku? What are you—?" I didn't let him finish, as I quickly positioned myself above his cock, and then lowered myself onto him with a moan. The silverette groaned loudly at the tight heat surrounding him before looking up at me in shock.

"You were teasing me too much, Josh," I growled, shivering slightly as I adjusted myself on his hips. My lover let out an unsteady breath as I gave an experimental wiggle of my hips.

"Ride me, Neku," he smirked, albeit a little shakily. Glaring down at him, I sucked in a deep breath before beginning to move. I lifted myself up and down on his cock, moaning softly at the filling sensation. Unfortunately, the angle wasn't just quite right for my prostate to be struck. That is, it wasn't until Joshua pulled me closer to him by my arms. I gasped sharply before a loud moan escaped me when my prostate was hit, and nearly fell over onto Joshua as a result. Joshua thrust his hips up against mine, hitting my prostate again, and then rolled us over so he was on top.

"Too much for you, Neku?" he teased when he saw how breathless I was from the thrusts.

"Shut up!" I huffed, folding my arms over my chest. The silverette merely smirked before beginning to roll his hips smoothly against mine. With each powerful thrust he gave, my prostate was struck hard and my moans became louder and more high-pitched. My hands moved to grip his back, digging my nails into the pale skin there. Joshua let a hiss escape him in response, but didn't break pace. When he began to pump my neglected cock in time with his thrusts, I cried out in pleasure, tightening my grip around his torso. I soon felt my release approaching quickly, and looked up into those lust-darkened violet eyes. Before I could warn him, however, he gave a particularly hard thrust, sending me over the edge. I screamed my lover's name as I came, hard, my cum spattering into Joshua's hand.

"F-FUCK!" Joshua groaned, biting down lightly on my neck as he released his white hot seed deep inside me. The silverette's arms trembled as he struggled to hover over and not crush me, but then they gave out, and he fell onto me with a grunt. After a while, he pulled out, and then rolled us over so we were on our sides facing each other. He leaned in and kissed me, a series of thorough, loving kisses. When we parted, we each had a dazed smile on our faces. Joshua pulled me close, and I buried my face into the crook of his shoulder.

"I love you, Josh," I whispered.

"Love you, too, Neku," he murmured, kissing the top of my head.

"I really hope this works," I mumbled tiredly against his skin.

"I'm sure it will," he assured me. "Now, get some sleep. You're gonna need it." I heard the smirk in his voice, but merely rolled my eyes in response.

"G'night, Josh," I yawned, snuggling up closer to him.

"Goodnight, Neku," he said softly, wrapping his arms around me. As I drifted off to sleep, I thought to myself, 'Who knew something so unexpected would make things so right?'

A/N: AND DONE! FINALLY got this finished. I had honestly forgotten about this fic for quite a while, but I'm glad I remembered it! Sorry about the length, but the other part is over twice as long! R&R, peeps!
