"Ever since I told my parents...and he told his..." Kora said to her, sighing.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Oooh, well he's probably feeling pretty beat on right now," Malissa said. "I mean, your parents love you and to them he did this to you. He has foster parents so they probably already have doubts about his credibility and even if they don't think he's a bad kid they're probably questioning their first impression. It probably looks a lot like the world is against him on this."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora sighed, "But, I'm not against him!" She looked down, "I guess I don't count..."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Try to look at it from his perspective," Malissa said. "This is every guys worst nightmare."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora looked at her. "And mine..." She mumbled. "I guess I should say I'm sorry to him.. then..."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Or just tell him it's alright," she said, walking into class. "As bad as it sounds he's just as messed up as you are."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"We can always hope," He said, flashing her a grin before kissing her softly. "Don't worry, I'll love it just as much if it's a girl."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora leaned against him a little. "Yeah, we can." She said softly, rubbing his knee with her hand.

[Hikari Hoshi]

He smiled, rubbing her stomach gently. "So, when do we get to feel it moving around?" he asked, kissing her head.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora bit her lip a little. "I'm not even sure..." She said softly, watching his hand now.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Hmm, well have you talked to a doctor?" he asked, still rubbing her stomach. "We should probably do that if you haven't. You know, to make sure everything is going alright and see how much the baby has grown."

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh tried to pay attention as much as he could.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora sighed and then tried to work on the worksheet in front of her.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh came back to pick her up when the bell rang.

[EmoKidArty]

"Do you need help?" He asked her in a whisper.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora looked up a little. "Yeah." She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"What are you having trouble on?" he asked, leaning over a bit to see her paper.

[EmoKidArty]

[Hikari Hoshi]

He smiled at her, "You'll get a reward when we get out of class," he told her, finishing his own work.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled at him, then looked back at the clock.

[Hikari Hoshi]

The bell rang and Josh picked up her stuff and kissed her deeply.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora kissed him back just as deep and then took his free hand.

[Hikari Hoshi]

He smiled, walking her out of class and out of the school before kissing her again.

[EmoKidArty]

[Hikari Hoshi]

He kissed her back just as deeply, dumping her stuff into the back seat.

[EmoKidArty]

"Baby and i want you..." She whispered softly, then kissed him again.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh pulled back a little, looking down at her, "A-are we allowed to... to do that?" he asked, glancing down at her stomach. "I mean, with the baby and all... is it safe?"

[EmoKidArty]

Kora looked down at her stomach too. "I'm not sure... But I doubt anything will happen..." She whispered.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh bit his lip a little. He really wanted her. It was still early, what's the worst that could happen? He glanced around quickly before kissing her deeply once more and opening the door for her.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled a little then got in. She bit her lip a little as she waited for him to get in.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh got in quickly and drove to the spot where they'd had their first 'date.' He parked and pulled the keys out before turning to her and kissing her gently. "Back seat or on the grass?"

[EmoKidArty]

Kora kissed him back softly. "Hmmm, you pick." She said softly, leaning over and kissing his neck.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Hmm, both are kind of kinky," he murmured, closing his eyes as he kissed his neck. "Let's go with grass."

[EmoKidArty]

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh got out and sat beside her, pulling her close as he kissed her deeply.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled and kissed him back just as deeply.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh kissed her a little more, leaning over her.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora laid back and dragged him with her. "I love you Josh."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"I love you too Kora," he whispered, kissing her a little more as his hand slipped up her shirt.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora gasped a little, and kissed him deeply, wanting more.

[Hikari Hoshi]

His moved up her side till it reached her breast and sqeezed gently. He grinned down at her. "You've gotten bigger babe," he teased.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora made a face. "I wonder why..." She teased then put her hands up his shirt and rubbed his chest softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh smiled, rubbing her stomach a little, "I know why," he whispered, nipping her ear.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled up at him and continued to rubb his chest still.

[Hikari Hoshi]

He kissed her again, his hand slipping lightly into her pants. "Are you sure about this?" he asked softly.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora nodded. "I want you..." She whispered, "Please...."

[Hikari Hoshi]

He didn't wait for another word. He had her pants off in no time and had her gently, but passionately.

[EmoKidArty]

When they finsihed she panted a little and curled up next to him.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh held her close to him, kissing her head as he caught his breath.

[EmoKidArty]

[Hikari Hoshi]

"I love you too babe," he murmured, rubbing her arm gently. "You're so wonderful."

[EmoKidArty]

[Hikari Hoshi]

He kissed her head again, closing his eyes as he layed back on the grass. "Can we just stay out here forever?" he asked.

[EmoKidArty]

"I wish but we can't..." She said softly

[Hikari Hoshi]

"I know," he said softly. "But it would be nice. Just you and me, peace and quiet."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora nodded a little. "Yeah..." She whispered then sat up a little. "I'm going to put clothes on...." She said shivering a little.

[Hikari Hoshi]

He sat up as well, watching her for a moment then pulling on his boxers and pants. "Do you still want to catch a movie later?" he asked.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora was just getting her bra on. "Oh... Yeah, Sure." She smiled a little. "What about dinner??" She asked softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Before or after the movie?" he asked, smiling.

[EmoKidArty]

"I'm not sure when baby wants to eat." She laughed a little, then pulled on her panites, then her jeans.

[EmoKidArty]

((Can you please post?))

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Alright," Josh chuckled, "We'll wing it."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled at him, putting all her clothees on then handed him his.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh kissed her as she handed him his clothes before putting them on.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled a little and watched him. "You look better without those on... you do know that right?" She laughed slightly then walked over and hugged him tightly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

He hugged her back, blushing a little, "Well so do you," he said, kissing her head. "I must say, I'm surprised at you." He teased. "So demanding."

[EmoKidArty]

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Shall we eat then?" He asked, kissing her gently.

[EmoKidArty]

[Hikari Hoshi]

He took her hand, leading her back to the car and opening her door for her. "Do you need to call your parents, let them know where you are?"

[EmoKidArty]

Kora sighed and nodded, "Yeah, more then likely.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Go ahead," he said, kissing her cheek as he got in the drivers side.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora grabbed her phone, then dialed her parents number.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Trey was just walking in whent he phone rang. "Hello?" He answered setting his stuff on the table.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled, "Hey daddy, I was calling to let you know me and Josh are going to get some Lunch."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Okay," Trey said, fighting the urge to forbid her from seeing him. He was still really pissed at Josh.

[EmoKidArty]

"See you when I get home." She said then hung up and leaned over, kissing Josh.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh kissed her back before starting the car and driving into town . "Where does baby want to eat?" He asked.

[EmoKidArty]

"Well, Baby is in the mood for some really good food, like at a good restaunt.."

He kissed her cheek as he took her hand and led her inside. They took a seat and the waitress came over and took their drink orders.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora told her she wanted a pepsi.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh got a mountain dew. The waitress left them to look over the menu which was half pizza and half pasta.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora bit her lip a little as she stared of the menu. "This Pasata sounds good...' She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh looked over at her menu. "You're right, it does." he said, "You think that's what you'll get?"

[EmoKidArty]

Kora glanced over "Well, Maybe some bread sticks.. and maybe that little cheese pizza..." She nodded a little.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"With the pasta?" he asked. "You're not just going to eat bread sticks and a little pizza are you?"

[EmoKidArty]

Kora bit her lip. "I don't know..." She rubbed her head. "I'll just get the pasata then..."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"You can get as much as you want," he told her kissing her cheek. "I don't mind, really."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora closed her eyes. "I'm just getting the pasta..." She told him. She set her menu down and glanced at her stomach a little.

[Hikari Hoshi]

He kissed her softly, "If that's what you wish," he said softly before closing his own menu. The waitress came with their drinks and took their orders.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora looked up at the waitress and told her what she wanted as Kora took her drink and straw.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh ordered the poor-man's chicken pizza and handed her the menus. The waitress nodded and went to place their orders. Josh took Kora's hand, kissing it gently.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled a little as she stared at him. "I love you Josh.."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"I love you too," he said, kissing her softly.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora kissed him back softly, then shifted a little in her seat.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"What?" he asked, moving away a little, "Is something wrong?"

[EmoKidArty]

Kora shook her head a little, "Its.. nothing." She said softly, she just felt like she ws going to be sick a little.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Are you sure?" he asked, rubbing her back gently.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora nodded, "yeah. Just fine..." She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Alright," He said, kissing her head gently.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora nodded a little.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"I know it's kind of early," he said, still rubbing her back. "But have you started thinking about names yet?"

[EmoKidArty]

Kora looked at him "No. I havn't..." She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Well it is still really early," he said, kissing her head.

[EmoKidArty]

"Well, if you want to.." She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"I don't really have any names in mind," he said, shrugging a little. "I've always liked the name Jayne."

[EmoKidArty]

"I like the names. Rosealie, Demitri, Brooklyn and Alex..." She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh smiled, "Demitri is a cool name," he said.

[EmoKidArty]

She smiled a little.. "Then there is Aiden..."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Hmm, I like that one too," he said, kissing her cheek.

[EmoKidArty]

"Maybe we could put boy names in one hat, then girl names in the other... and have our family pick.." She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Maybe," he said, "But, maybe we should get a book or something first. I'd kind of like to give the baby a name that means something."

[EmoKidArty]

She sighed and nodded a little, then looked away.

[Hikari Hoshi]

He kissed her cheek softly, rubbing her back. "Are you sure you're alright?" he asked softly.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora loked back at him, anad nshrugged, "I'm sure after I eat..."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Alright," he said, kissing her head. The waitress came with their food and refilled their drinks.

[EmoKidArty]

She smiled and then started to eat.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh smiled at her, before letting go of her so he could eat as well.

[EmoKidArty]

She smiled a little and started to eat.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh smiled as he ate, glancing at her every so often.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora licked her lip a little, as she ate. "This is really good."

[Hikari Hoshi]

"I'm glad," he smiled, kissing the corner of her mouth.

[EmoKidArty]

She smiled a little and then took a drink.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Do you wanna try a piece of my pizza?" Josh asked, offering her a piece.

[EmoKidArty]

"I'll try it..." She said softly then took another bite of her pasata.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh put the piece on her plate.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled a little, then set her fork down before picking up the piece and taking a small bite of it.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh smiled a little as he watched her.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora swalled it. "It tastes good." She said softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"It's my favorite," he said, smiling a little.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora smiled a little, then set the pizza down and started to eat her pasta again.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh kissed her cheek before going back to his pizza.

[EmoKidArty]

She smiled a little, then took a deep breath.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh watched her, still a little worried.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora grabbed her fork again and ate some more. "So... What doctors should I see again?" She asked softly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"Your mom's gynacologyst," Josh said, looking at her again. "She's probably had the same one for years and it's better to go with someone trusted."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora bit her lip, then sighed a little, she felt stuid but had to ask. "What are they for?" She asked.

[Hikari Hoshi]

"It's a woman's doctor," Josh told her. "They specialize in women's reproductive systems. Most double as obstetricians so they take care of unborn babies as well as the mother." He blushed a little bit. "I... did some research."

[EmoKidArty]

Kora nodded, "Oh, okay..." She nodded a little,then sighed slightly.

[Hikari Hoshi]

Josh bit his lip a little. She probably thought he was some sort of freak now.

[EmoKidArty]

Kora took a deep breath, then picked up the piece of pizza and started to eat it.
