Morning again, Yusuke yawned hugely, despairing that he would have to leave the warm drowsiness of his bed. He stretched his sleepy muscles, or tried to as this morning’s stretch caused a mumbled string of complaints. Instantly awake at the should of his lover’s voice, Yusuke looked down to see a head of mussed crayon red hair resting on his chest. This is weird, the young demon thought to himself as he reached a hand down to rub Jin’s shoulder to coax him awake. Jin was usually up at the first light of dawn, if not before.
“You okay?” Yusuke asked once Jin started stirring. The windmaster mumbled something into Yusuke’s chest in reply.
“Your gerbil has fungus?” Yusuke repeated, confused; he did always hate that ‘telephone’ game. “I’m sorry to hear that.”
Again Jin’s response was muffled by his bed companion’s flesh.
“Lick my flaming llama?” Yusuke echoed. “Do we have a flaming llama? Wouldn’t that hurt my tongue?”
Jin laughed softly, finally lifting his head. “Don make me laugh. It make’s m’ tomach hurt more.”
“Your belly hurts?” Yusuke asked. “Come to think of it you were kinda sore last night, too. Do you want me to have Hokushin get a healer here for ya?”
“Nah.” Jin shook his head gently. “It feel’n better a’ready. Mind layin’ ‘ere with me fer a wee bit?”
“Sure thing, pal.” Yusuke happily snuggled back under the warm covers. Jin smiled softly and laid his head back down on Yusuke’s peck, listening to the steady beat of his lover’s heart. A moment later, Yusuke’s slightly calloused fingers started running soothingly though Jin’s unruly mop of crayon red hair. A low, happy purr sounded from deep in the wind master’s throat as one hand played with the short hair at the back of his neck, sending delightful tingles down his lover’s spine.
Bein’ sick sucks big’uns Jin pouted. Here Yusuke was leaving in two days and he had to go and get sick. Or at least he thought he was sick. His whole body ached, especially his nipples and nether regions. Not only that but, this random vomiting spree he went on every morning for the past week was confusing. He felt fine the rest of the day, except for in the mornings. Maybe he should see a healer.

::Later that same day::
From his stand point in his room, Hokushin watched as To’o held what must have been a very nerve racking conversation with their new lord’s wind charming lover. At the moment, Jin looked confused, his head was tilted curiously to the side and his eyebrows were knit together in the middle of his forehead. The bald sage priest almost laughed, imagining just what frustration his friend was feeling at the moment. Being vague and dropping hints didn’t seem to be working on either Jin or Yusuke.
Leaving his room, Hokushin decided that he was going join To’o trying to discreetly enlighten Jin to his delicate condition. It really wasn’t their place to step in, however, Jin and Yusuke trained and spared each day, usually with each other and it would be horrible if an accident were to occur or perhaps a stray punch were destroy the fragile life growing inside the spunky wind master. Just as Hokushin was about to step out of the door, it opened from the other side bringing in not only To’o but Seitei as well.
“I suppose that it did not go well?” He asked, taking in To’o frustrated expression.
“How is it that he is so oblivious to his body’s changes?” To’o asked in reply. “Its absurd.”
“Even his scent has changed.” Seitei agreed, rubbing his chin in thought. “Surly Yusuke-sama must have noticed as much. They do spend most of the day together, not to mention their sharing a bed for the past year or so.”
“You are both forgetting that Jin-san is an ex-Shinobi.” Hokushin answered. “You know how they are chosen, don’t you? Young. Jin probably wasn’t even fully weaned from his mother’s breast when his former master found him. He has not a clue about pregnancy because that’s for outside females. Shinobi are creatures of the shadows not allowed in the light and are taught not to indulge in bodily pleasures.
“What about Yusuke-sama?” Seitei argued. “Surely he can’t be that dense.”
A thought came to Hokushin then, the other two stared at him, waiting for his answer.
“Oh course! How could I have looked over such a detail?! Yusuke-sama was raised as a human. Of course he doesn’t realize that Jin-san is expecting. Human men can’t get pregnant, that’s a woman’s job. And as for Jin-san, I’m not so sure that he doesn’t know that he is pregnant, he may just be acting as though he doesn’t know so that Yusuke-sama won’t find out before he leaves. Yusuke-sama has had a mate back in the Ningenkai that he was going to return to from the beginning. He was never going to stay here permanently, and I believe that Jin-san actually had the pleasure of meeting her once.”
“So Jin does know?”
“I’m not sure, all I am saying is that child belongs to Jin-san first and foremost because Yusuke-sama already proclaimed himself as mated. He could over power Jin-san and take the child for his own mate to raise, kill it if he doesn’t want a bastard as a first born or perhaps its legitimate siblings would want him dead later on in their lives. Jin-san may know of the life he is carrying but until he offers that information to us we can only guess.”
“Yusuke-sama would never do such a thing to his heir!” Seitei argued.
“Are you so sure? In the beginning would or have believed that Rizen-sama would have stopped eating humans and accept a human child as an heir? How can we say for sure that Yusuke-sama or his mate won’t want that child disposed of? Right now all he would have to do it land a solid punch to destroy that child.”
To’o shook his head firmly stopping any further debate. “We can stand here all day and debate about this, but both of you are giving Yusuke-sama and Jin-san much too much credit. Neither of them have realized that their rutting has produced an offspring and all we can so is wait and watch because it is not our place to interfere.”
Knowing that their fellow monk was correct, both Seitei and Hokushin nodded silently.

::The next night::
Yusuke watched as his red haired lover slept, or more precisely watched his pointed ears twitch and jump in tune with whatever dream his wild mind thought up. Stretched out on his stomach with his peaceful face turned towards Yusuke, as it always was, Jin seemed almost cherubic , Yusuke mused silently, as he often did. Jin was always able to fall right to sleep at night, while Yusuke found himself staying awake more and more to watch his friend sleep. There was something about Jin that suddenly made the young demon want to stare at him for endless hours, maybe it was because he was leaving to return home soon and he was just now realizing how much he was going to miss his friend. No, it couldn’t be just that, Jin always had a air about him that mad people want to flock to him and lately his aura seemed amplified, the wind master was practically glowing and Yusuke found himself wanting to be constantly at his side and see his smiling face. The weird thing about Jin falling asleep so quickly tonight was, Yusuke made him promise not to spar or train with anyone until his stomach started feeling better and yet tonight Jin still seemed exhausted and quickly fell asleep the moment his head hit the pillow.
Lost in thought as he was, Yusuke failed to notice that one of Jin’s sapphire blue eyes was staring back at him.
“Yer staring is enough ta give me da’ willies!” He said, lifting his head to look into his lover’s started eyes and gave him a wide grin.
“Sorry.”
“Wha’cha think’n bout so hard?”
“You.” Yusuke answered simply. “And how much I’m going to miss you when I go back home.”
Jin propped himself up on his elbows and shrugged. “It ain’t like we’re never gonna see each other again.” He answered just as simply turning his head away and presenting his dark haired lover with his back. “An’ ‘ere I got ta think’n you woke me up for a lil’ bit o’ fun.” He pouted. “If all yer gonna do is mope then I’m goin’ back to sleep’n”
Yusuke’s eyes widened hugely, “If your sick I don wanna make you feel any worse, or catch whatever the hell sort of bug you caught, I hate throwing up.”
Jin shrugged. “Suit yerself then.”
“Are you sure you feel up to it?” Yusuke asked, he never was one to turn down sex, especially not when it was the night before he was leaving.
“I feel’n fine.” Jin replied turning over.
“Really?” Yusuke asked, rubbing his hand over Jin’s naked chest, slowly making his way up to a dusky nipple that was already starting to harden into hard little peaks. Just as Jin arched into his lover’s touch, Yusuke seized one of the hardened peaks and pinched harshly, usually such an action would get a moan in response and Jin would arch further into his ministrations, tonight, however, the redheaded demon yelped and pulled away.
“That hurt!” He hissed.
“See!” Yusuke explained, rubbing the abused flesh in apology. “You’re still sore!”
“Well, ma’be if ya wern’t so rough,.”
“But you like it rough!” Yusuke fired back. “The way you beg and scream for more, harder and to pound your ass into kingdom come, I’m amazed that this bed lasted as long as it has.”
“Will you be gentle, then?” Jin asked, lifting a leg to push off the covers and beckoning his lover to him.
“Only if you promise to go see a doctor or a healer so someone about this sickness or whatever?”
“I promise.” Jin whispered, grabbing Yusuke by his hair and pulling him down for a kiss.
On any other night, sex was set at a furious pace bringing just as much pain as pleasure and leaving both demon’s not only sated every night, but exhausted and panting for breath. Tonight, however, was different not only because Jin was sore but, because they both seemed to know that this was most likely their last night together; their one last goodbye. The touches were tender and lingering on both sides drawing this moment out as long as they possibly could. When Yusuke finally pressed his hardness into Jin, the redhead sighed with contentment lifting his rear to get better penetration and ignoring the pestering ache the action caused, this was their last night together and Jin was going to make the most of it, even if he was sore. Claiming Jin’s lips in a deep, soul devouring kiss, Yusuke set a slow pace; long, slow strokes in, only to retract with aching slowness pressing against his lover’s sweet spot with equally long strokes. As their orgasms drew closer Jin pulled Yusuke’s head away from his lips by the boy’s dark, silken hair.
“I lied,” he whispered, looking deep into the glimmering pools of confused chocolate that were Yusuke’s eyes. “I am gonna miss ya.”
Before the boy had a chance to reply, Jin pulled his down for another deep kiss, tuning his brain out to everything but the waves of pleasure from his lovers deep strokes.

The next morning found a massive group of bald demons gathered around their newly appointed lord, Yusuke. Their new master was young and held much promise of living up to his father’s legacy. Like his father, however, Yusuke has a fascination with humans that wasn’t sated by eating them. Yusuke was returning to his mate today, as he had promised to do three years ago that day. If he ran the whole way, like he planned to, he would make it home by night fall. The goodbyes were going quite well, handshakes and well wishes were being given left and right, that was until Yusuke bumped into Jin, who had disappeared to the closest toilet then rushed back before he was missed by his, now former, lover. Yusuke did in fact overlook his friend’s disappearance but three particular monks exchanged concerned frowns. The moment the hyperactive wind master was in view, he was promptly glomped by Yusuke. The dark haired demon tackled his friend in a hug, when he pulled back he kept an arm around the taller demon’s shoulder.
“I’m gonna miss you, ya crazy bastard.” He explained, his closed fist giving Jin’s shoulder a light punch, Jin returned the punch with one of his own, his goofy smile never faltering.
“Jus’ member dat when’n yer mate kicks yer sorry ass to da couch.”
Yusuke threw back his head with a hearty laugh and tightened his one armed hug to his friend’s shoulders.
“Yeah, Yeah. Remember our promise, kay? Get that stomach thing checked out okay?”
“I will.”
Without another word, Yusuke slung his pack over one muscular shoulder, waved and took off towards to the spot where a steady portal was supposedly opened. He paused just in sight of the group to turn and wave before disappearing into the surrounding trees. Jin stared off in the general direction long after Yusuke had disappeared. He continued to stare until a soft hand was placed on his shoulder, fully gaining his attention. Jin turned to find that Hokushin, Seitei and To’o had come up behind him, all three giving him worried glances.
“Are you alright?” Hokushin asked softly. “We noticed you had rushed off.”
“I’m fine.” He answered simply.
“Are you planning to stay here for the time being?” Hokushin continued, “You are, of course, most welcome to stay as long as you like. I’m sure Yusuke-sama made that point quite clear multiple times.”
“I dunno, m’be” Jin answered, then a second later he shook his head. “Nah, I don think so. I’m gonna go pack.”
The three monks watched as Jin walked away. Seitei leaned in a bit closer to the slightly shorter Hokushin to whisper questioningly, “Was that a ‘mood swing’?”
“Oddly enough, I don’t think so.”
It didn’t take Jin long to pack, as a former Shinobi he was trained to pack light and be able to be packed and ready at a moments notice. In mere minutes he was saying his own goodbyes and ‘thank yous’ to everyone whom he had befriended in the year’s time he had spent living and training alongside them. Unlike Yusuke, once Jin turned his back to the group of bald headed monks who were seeing him off, he didn’t wave nor look back, he simply took off into the sky and soon disappeared into the low hanging clouds.

!~!

Touya felt a presence at his door a split second before the demon on the other side knocked on it. The ice demon sported a slight smile on his thin lips as he realized that the demon was none other then his old Shinobi partner, Jin. The smile grew a tad wider once the door was opened to encounter his old friend beaming his thousand watt grin at him.
“Hiya, Touya!” The redhead greeted gleefully.
“Come in.” Touya stepped back to allow Jin entrance into his house, his pale eyes scanning over his friend’s body and instantly settled on the rounded curve of Jin’s abdomen. The moment the door was closed, Touya caught of whiff of Jin’s sent, the redhead simply reeked of pheromones proving that his friend hadn’t simply become lazy since he last saw him. Touya chin dropped, “You’re . . .”
“Preggers?” Jin supplied, his hand dropping down to rub his rounded abdomen through the tight black, long-sleeved shirt he was wearing under his crisscrossing suspenders. Touya nodded. “Yea,” Jin continued, “‘At’s why I stopped by.”
Touya nodded again and silently lead Jin into his small kitchen, he then put on some tea before joining his friend at the table.
“You’ve taken a mate?” He asked, sitting across from Jin at he table. Jin shook his head, his mane of unruly red hair following it’s movements. “That’s odd. Usually a male can’t become pregnant with out having claimed a mate.”
“Why?”
“I’m not sure, but I believe it’s because a male’s body is not made to produce offspring the same way a female’s does. It takes the constant companionship of one’s mate to release the right chemicals to prompt one’s childbearing organs out of their dormant state.”
Jin blinked, slightly baffled. Only Touya could say he wasn’t sure about something then give such a detailed answer a moment later.
“Makes sense.” Jin replied, after a moment. “We did share a bed fer a year.”
“You don’t take lovers often,” Touya agreed, “Your body probably was probably fooled into thinking that you were mated with whomever it was you spent the past year with. Who is the father, Jin?”
“Yusuke.”
Touya gawked. “I shouldn’t be so surprised.” He said after a moment. “The two of you a so alike its scary. Does he know about the child?”
Jin shook his head. “I didn’t even know bout it till I went to da doctor. Hell, I didn’n know I could get knocked up. I don know nuffin bout babies.”
“What did the doctor say?”
“Ta find a midwife trained specially fer male pregnancies”
“I know that there is a healer in the town not too far from here. Perhaps she is trained as a midwife or knows of someone who is. I’ll take you too her if you’d like, if we leave now we could be there by early evening. Did the doctor give you instructions about flying while your pregnant?” Again Jin shook his head. “My advice then, until you talk to a midwife, is no flying higher then you can jump, if the child’s energy starts conflicting with your’s it may be hazardous if you are in the air at the time. That goes for fighting and sparing as well, its very dangerous for both you and your child and its better not to risk it.”
Jin nodded vigorously, his eyes wide and trusting.
“Shall we go then?” Touya asked, standing. Jin nodded again and followed a step behind the shorter demon.
!~!
“Take a deep breath for me, you may feel slight discomfort.” As it turned out, the demoness Touya had mentioned was in fact trained as a midwife, she also had extensive experience in male pregnancies. Once she had found out that Jin had never had a proper exam she had pushed back all of her appointments and practically dragged him into her sparkling clean examining room for a complete check up, including the rectal exam he was currently undergoing. Thankfully, he was no longer sore; however, some strange demoness thrusting her fingers up his ass was more then uncomfortable, especially considering he was naked laying on a cold table with his legs spread wide in oddly horrifying stirrups.
“All done.” She pulled off her rubber gloves and gave Jin a bright smile. “Everything looks just fine. You may get dressed now.” Once the wind master was fully dressed, she asked “Do you have any questions before you depart?”
Jin nodded, actually he had one very prominent question that he was dying to have answered. “How is it going to come out?”
“The same way it went in.” She answered, seeing Jin pale at the comment she explained further. “Your anus will dilate the same as a woman’s cervix.”
Jin looked baffled and confused prompting the doctor to point out one of the diagrams lining the wall.
“As you can see, the same way your bladder and testes are both connected to the urethra, your womb and colon are connected to your rectum. Right below your prostate there is a flap of skin, that I was just examining by the way, that is the opening to the birth canal. All in all, the baby will only have to pass through two inches of your rectum.”
Jin nodded, wither or not he actually understood what she had just explained, the doctor didn’t know. His color was still pale, now with a green undertone so she didn’t push any farther.
“I have a book here that will explain all of this.” She grabbed a thick book off the top shelf of her high bookshelf situated in the corner of the room. “I recommend it to all of my male patients. This copy is for you in case you have questions and I am not around to answer.”
Jin nodded numbly, still trying to digest all of what he was just told, from the stirring sensation he felt from the baby that slept under his heart, the tiny life felt his mother’s baffled discomfort and seemed unappreciative of the interruption of its sleep having already been put through the pokes and prods of the exam. Absently rubbing one large hand softly over the swell of his baby as if he were trying to calm the tiny being, Jin followed the doctor out of the exam room and into the waiting room where Touya was waiting.
“You are three and a half months along now,” She reminded Jin, “I’d like to set a date for your next exam for this time next month until your third trimester, then I suggest you be examed every two weeks; am I to assume you are going to continue coming to me? Or will you be finding another midwife?”
“It took me dis long to find ya.” Jin answered softly. “I’m gonna stick ‘round till I pop.”
“See you next month then.” She bowed and Jin returned it.
“There is a small restaurant close by. Are you hungry?” Jin was so lost in his thoughts that he didn’t realize that both he and Touya had already left the building and were walking silently down the busy village road. The redhead started slightly before turning his large ocean blue eyes down to meet Touya’s. Jin nodded mutely and followed as the shorter demon turned down another road. “There are not many places to stay in this village, I found that out when I first came here. Do you have a plan on where you are going to stay?”
“‘Aven’t giv’n it much think’n.” Jin replied.
“Why don’t you stay with me?” Touya asked, he had never seen Jin so nervous and unsure of himself. He felt a sudden surge of anger at Yusuke for putting his friend in such a position. He didn’t want Jin to have to go through this stressful and confusing time all alone. “At least until you’ve had the child. That way I can be there to help, incase something should happen.”
“Really?”
Touya nodded.
“Sounds like fun!” Jin answered, visibly perked up by his friend’s offer. “It’s a deal!”
Touya kept a slight smile on his lips as Jin suddenly livened back up into his old self, rambling aimlessly a mile a minute. What in the world had he gotten himself into?
“Now where’s ‘at grub place? I’m starved!”
These next few months were certainly going to be interesting.

Dum da dum, there it is. I hope you enjoyed it! It took longer then I thought to get up but there it is! Lemme know if you liked it. And no, this is not going to turn into a Touya x Jin fic. See you next time!
