Chapter 19: Pregnancy
(Third POV)
'Megan get off the dresser!'
'Never!'
'Come on!'
'NO!'
'Sweetie you'll have to come down eventually!'
'*Hisssss*'
'Ugh, it's no use guys!' Rose complained, throwing her arms into the air 'She's just too stubborn!'
'Plus her weight has increased by a large amount since she's transformed, so we can't move her ourselves.' Lillie added, crossing her arms. 'Not to mention the biting and scratching.'
'Well I guess we've learnt something.' Ashe shrugged, glancing at Megan from the corner of her eye. 'Megan goes into defence mode whenever someone tries to give her a makeover.'
'Ya know I REALLY like how you're talking about me like I'm not even here!' Megan hissed 'I have perfectly good ears and can hear all the stuff that comes out of your pie-hole!'
The door suddenly opened, revealing Sun who had his hands in his pockets 'What's going on in...' he trailed off as soon as he saw Megan on top of the dresser 'here...'
'Hey guys!' Hau squeezed past Sun to stand in the room. He seemed to be back to his cheerful self 'Why is Edge on the dresser?'
Everyone stared at him blankly.
'Dude... that's Megan.' Sun told him monotonously.
'What? Really?'
'That is correct.' Megan confirmed with a poker face, when in reality she was trying not to giggle.
Hau turned to Sun, gaping at him 'How could you tell?!'
'It's really not that hard.' Gladion stated as he walked in with Emilee in his arms. 'Megan's smaller than Edge, and her claws are slightly sharper. As well as her coat being slightly paler. Also, most obvious detail.' - he pointed at Megan - 'Edge doesn't stand on dressers.'
'Also, Megan has that sca- OW!' Sun stopped, hunching over as Gladion elbowed him in the stomach.
'Wow. You're very observant, Gladion!' Lillie beamed, stars appearing in her eyes as she admired her older brother.
'Well if I can't tell the difference between Megan and her Pokemon, she'll get salty at me.' Gladion blew his hair away after Emilee dropped it in his face. Megan nodded at his statement.
'Well anyway.' Rose coughed 'Megan won't get down! We've tried everything!'
'Why is she even up there?' Sun asked while rubbing his sore spot.
'Well...' Lillie took a deep breath 'WeallagreedonhavingagirlsnightwellRoseandIdidandwedraggedMeganandAshleyintoitanywayRoseandIwentshoppingtobuystuffforthenightandwhenwecamebackwedecidedtogiveeachothermakeoversMeganwasresistantandwhenwepulledoutfacialsshetransformedandtriedtojumpoutofthewindowIblockedherwayandthat'showsheendedupthere!'
Everyone stared at her with their mouths agape, except for Gladion who nodded his head in understanding.
'I see...' He hummed, putting a finger to his chin.
'YOU ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD THAT?!'
Gladion shrugged 'I have my ways.' He told them, handing Emilee to Hau. He then walked over to the dresser and looked up at Megan, arms crossed 'You gonna calm down?'
She shook her head.
'Why not?'
She made a noise resembling Silvally's growl 'Because the moment I do the girls are gonna pounce on me! I said I didn't want a makeover, and they tried giving me one anyway! I'm in no position to-' She paused, and began gagging and coughing. She swiftly jumped off the dresser, transforming into a human in the process and dashed towards Lillie's bathroom.
'Oh no, not again.' Gladion muttered in a panicked tone, before following after his girlfriend.
The others followed also, stopping at the doorway as Megan leaned over the toilet with Gladion holding back her hair and rubbing her back soothingly.
'UGH, F*CK PREGNANCY!' She yelled between gags.
'She's been doing this a lot...' Lillie whispered, holding her hands to her chest 'Maybe her diet isn't stable for her condition.'
'That's a possibility.' Ashley nodded 'I suppose we'll have to ask her what she's been eating when she's done...'
'Also she's being pretty energetic. Maybe bringing that down will help.' Sun suggested 'What would you suggest, Ashe? I mean, you're the only one here who's actually had a kid.'
'Although that's true, I'm not sure my advice will help.' The woman sighed, looking over at Emilee who was clinging onto Hau 'When I was pregnant with Em, I did do research on how to deal with it. But I also found some didn't work and I had to find my own methods. Long story short, everybody's different when it comes to pregnancy.'
'Can you at least try?' Rose pleaded.
'Of course I will. I never said I wouldn't. Just don't be surprised if my methods don't affect her.' She then smiled 'Besides, she has all of you to help her through the coming nine months. Am I correct?'
'Yeah!' The group cheered.
'You guys having an epiphany fest or something?'
They all whipped their heads round to see Megan, who was now facing them with a weak smirk. She was sitting between Gladion's legs, which were crossed, and had her back resting against his chest. Gladion held onto her waist with his hands on her stomach, his fingers interlaced, and was resting his head on her shoulder.
'You gonna be okay, Meg?' Hau asked with a frown.
'I'll be fine.' Megan croaked 'Just a little icky at the moment.'
'We really gotta stop that vomiting.' Lillie clicked her tongue 'You can't keep doing this.'
'Well what do you suggest?' Gladion asked, reaching one of his hands up to feel Megan's forehead and cheek. Obviously he was checking her temperature.
'I could ask Leven if he knows anything, or at least knows of someone who does.' Sun suggested, holding up his phone.
'That's-' Megan paused, seeming to be thinking before pouting '...actually not a bad idea... much to my disliking, Lev may be able to help.'
'He does seem pretty familiar with medicines and antidotes...' Gladion added 'Alright, Sun, call him.'
'Already on it.' The ravenette stated as he placed his phone to his ear. After a few rings Leven picked up 'Hey Levy... Yep... Yeah I'm good. Hey listen I need your help on something.' Sun began walking out of the room, leaving the others while he had his conversation.
'While he does that,' Ashley took out her phone 'I think I'll do some research on what is a balanced diet for you.'
'I'll help!' Lillie chimed in, following the woman as they sat on her bed.
'Guess that leaves Rose and I to take care of this little rascal~' Hau grinned as he began tickling Emilee, who began giggling and squirming.
'I'm down.' Rose shrugged with a smile.
'Wait wait wait. What about us?' Megan gestured to herself and her boyfriend.
'You two relax. The last thing you guys need right now is stress.' Rose pointed at them.
'But-'
'Ah ah ah! Relax. We got this, no need to worry about a thing.'
Megan groaned in defeat, and the two remaining friends left to entertain Emilee. She leaned her head back to rest on Gladion's shoulder 'So... What now?'
'Wanna go watch TV? Your call.'
'Voltron Legendary Defender?' (That's like, my favourite show. Don't judge)
'If that's what you want, love.'
'Yesss!'
(Meanwhile - Leven POV)
'Alright, yes I'll see what I can do... Not a problem, babe... Alright, you too. Yes, bye Sun.'
I ended the call and placed my phone into my pocket, letting out a deep sigh. 'So... She is pregnant, huh?' I muttered while running a hand through my hair 'That changes things...'
I glanced at the device on my desk, which was given to all of my colleagues to contact HQ. 'I suppose I could ask the boss... Maybe we can send someone undercover to act like a nurse or something...'
Making a decision, I pressed the red button on the device to forward a call. Almost immediately the boss's face popped up on the screen 'State your business!' He barked.
'Sir!' I placed a fist to my chest 'I have a report on Megan Artemus, over!'
'Go on.'
'She's... well...'
'Spit it out, boy!'
'She's pregnant, sir.'
The man seemed to space out for a moment. Whether it was from shock or anger, I couldn't tell. After a moment, he spoke up once again 'Do you have any idea on who the father is?'
'Yes, sir! The father is the president of the Aether Foundation, Gladion Aether!'
'I see...' The man scratched his stubble 'Yes... This may work in our favour. Good work!'
'Thank you, sir. It was for the new world.' I smirked 'Oh, one more thing before you go.'
'Yes?'
'My 'boyfriend' asked me if I knew someone who could help Artemus with her pregnancy. Do you think we can send someone that can act like that person?'
The boss thought for a moment '... I'll send Virgo to your location.'
'Yes, sir!'
'Keep an eye on the situation, and report to me if you find anything! Over and out!'
'Over and out.'
The call ended, and I fell back into my chair. I began chuckling to myself 'Come on, champion... You're literally spoon feeding this victory to us.'
(??? POV)
'You heard what he said, right?'
'Yes, sir.'
'I'll send his location to your device. Do not disappoint me!'
'Never, sir! I'll succeed for the new world!'
'Good. You are dismissed!'
I turned on my heel and began walking down the hall, a smirk plastered on my face as I entered the office. Leo was already there, along with Sagittarius who was sipping his coffee.
'Hello, boys.' I sneered, getting their attention.
'Hey, Virgo.' Sagittarius replied boredly.
'Wait, I know that look...' Leo pointed to me with a quizzical grin 'You were assigned a mission, weren't you?'
'Yes I was.' I nodded, taking a seat next to the two scientists.
'Ooh, do tell.'
'Well, I am supposed to act as a nurse for Megan Artemus.'
'Why? Is she sick?'
'No not exactly. She's pregnant.'
Immediately Sagittarius spat out his coffee, pounding his chest slightly as he coughed. Leo... was gobsmacked to say the least.
'Isn't she like... seventeen?!' Sagittarius wheezed.
'How will this affect the plan?!' Leo yelled.
I grimaced at their questions 'Yes, and the boss thinks it'll work in our favour. You see, the father of the child is Gladion Aether.'
...
Wait for it
...
'WHAT?!'
There you go.
A/N: *GAAAAAAASPS*
SO LEVEN'S A BAD GUY?! THAT SON OF A B*TCH!
Why do you think the pregnancy may work in these guys' favour? Let me know. Also, apologies for all the profanities I'm showing, and the crappy chapters.
