The next morning had Kaito feeling sick and horrible. His abdomen was killing him and it wasn't because he needed to use the washroom. Relieving himself had been easy, leaving Kaito to wallow in his misery in the comfort of his and Saguru's shared bed. It hurt, but his magic was telling him that there wasn't anything wrong with him that needed fixing. It had Kaito wishing that he was either severely constipated or had gotten injured in his sleep somehow. Fixing either of those problems would have been easy.

"Maybe you should go to the hospital Dove" Saguru offered, gently petting Kaito's hair. The magician was pale, but not alarmingly so.

"My magic can sense everything, more than what the machines could possibly look for" Kaito replied, wincing as another jolt of pain hit him. He was actually starting to think that he might know what was wrong with him "Plus this is starting to feel familiar, I think I have an egg that's too large inside of me" He hadn't laid an egg since before the mission.

Saguru paled. The last time that'd happened, Kaito hadn't been able to recover enough in time before he'd been forced to lay the next one. The cycle had continued, bringing the magician near death before Ai had been able to find a solution. The blond forced himself to calm down, that wouldn't happen this time. They had a way to prevent that from happening again "Why haven't you taken the serum yet?" Kaito had been suffering for at least a few hours.

Kaito bit his lip "I want to have this egg- just in case we succeeded" Sensing Saguru's concern, the magician quickly continued "I'll use the serum after that until I've recovered"

Gold softened, the last time Kaito had used the serum, he'd accidentally killed their unborn child "I understand" He was fearful, but he completely understood the other's concern. Saguru crawled into bed next to Kaito, hugging him "The potion Koizumi-chan gave you should make things easier for you"

"It already has" Kaito smiled, relaxing in Saguru's embrace "Just keep holding me and I'll be fine"

"I've got some chocolate pudding for you" Yozora announced, she'd left to make it in an attempt to cheer Kaito up. It was something that should be easy to eat.

Kaito beamed, sitting up to accept the chocolate dessert "Thanks Yozora"

"Abandoned for chocolate..." Saguru jokingly sighed as he sat up as well.

Yozora rolled her eyes "It's the instant kind since that's quicker" She gave Kaito his treat before sitting on the end of the bed. She eyed Kaito "Have you figured out what's wrong yet?" Kaito was a doctor with magical healing abilities. He had to have some idea by now.

The magician nodded "I might have a huge egg stuck in me, it's been a long time since I've had one"

Frowning, Yozora crawled over and patted Kaito's stomach "If it's as huge as you're implying, it'd be visible or at least able to be felt since you're lean"

Kaito blinked "You have a point..."

"Your abdomen does become a bit more solid near the dates when you lay and egg" Saguru mused.

"You never told me that" Kaito pouted, had Saguru really been able to tell?

Saguru just offered a shrug, smiling "I figured you'd obsess over it if you know"

"No I wouldn't..." Kaito lied, eating a bit more of the pudding, it was good. Yozora had gotten the texture right.

"So we've concluded that you're not having trouble with a big egg" Yozora noted, crossing her arms in thought. That was worrying, Kaito had a really high pain tolerance.

"Yeah..." Kaito wilted, he needed to stop getting his hopes up. They chatted for a good while, it was a nice distraction. It also helped that Yozora had most likely slipped in some crushed up pain meds into his pudding. The pain wasn't as sharp.

"Did you really set your friend on fire?" Yozora asked, a little sceptical after hearing Kaito's story.

"I can confirm that he did" Saguru added "Hattori got in the way of his trick and ended up getting set on fire instead of the ball"

"He should've known better than to get in the way of my tricks" Kaito crossed his arms "He knew that it was a fire based trick, so it's his fault" The Osakan hadn't been too injured, just a bit singed and in need of some new eyebrows.

"Wow" Yozora didn't really know what to say about that.

Kaito snickered, flinched, then grimaced, putting the two on alert.

"What's wrong?" Saguru asked.

The magician was still, still grimacing "I-" He paused, sticking his hand down his loose pants "I laid a tiny egg?" His voice was tinged with confusion as he held up the two inch egg "Why did it hurt so much?!" It was so tiny compared to his normal ones! At least it was an egg, for a horrifying second he'd thought he'd soiled himself.

"It's so pretty" Yozora gasped. It was a nice baby blue "And adorable" It was so tiny and cute!

"Your reproductive system was fixed, maybe this is now what's considered large for you?" Saguru offered "It's a different colour too, they used to be indigo" He touched the egg to examine it, jolting his hand away when it glowed a soft white and grew a little. Saguru's jaw dropped, he turned his gaze towards Kaito. Kaito was crying.

Yozora's eyes were wide "Shinichi did say that conception would be more likely..."

Kaito hugged the egg "Finally" His voice was wet, he was so happy "We need to call Akako, I don't want to mess up and have it die" Not again "And I want to know what others touching it does to it" He offered Yozora an apologetic look "I'd trust you to hold it, but I want to make sure it's safe first"

"I understand, magic is strange" Yozora smiled, she was glad that they'd finally succeeded "I wonder if it's a little sister or brother?"

Gold widened at her words "You mean?"

Yozora nodded "I decided it a while ago, I'm staying"

The magician burst into another fit of tears, happy tears. Too many good things were happening out of the blue.

Me: So Kaito unexpectedly had an egg... Just imagine one of them dropping it down the stairs by mistake XD why does that make me laugh?

Comment? ^-^

Muffins are nice, I like many flavours of muffin
