Okay, this story is kind of weird. Kel got pregnant, but it doesn't matter
how. It was Cleon, and the only person who knows is Dom. He just kind of
found out, somehow. Kel doesn't want to leave the war because it is in the
climax of the war, and she doesn't want to tell people. Basically, I
couldn't think of how Cleon could get her pregnant. I asked people in my
other fiction how to do it, and I didn't really get what I wanted. Anyhow,
I really wanted to write this scenario, so I did. The beginning will be
really sketchy because nothing is explained, but it will definitely end up
being really, really good!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dom looked down from his post on the walls of the fort. He could see Kel doing her morning practices, wincing in pain at every motion. He thought back to when he had found out.
~flashback~
He turned the corner on his way outside to see Kel walking to a concealed patch of bushes. Something was wrong. He followed her there, and he could see she was crying.
"Kel, what's wrong?" He asked. She jumped slightly when she saw him, and tried to hide the fact that she was crying. She seemed to realize she couldn't do it, and she shook her head slowly. Dom sat down.
"I think I'm pregnant." She said quietly, at almost a whisper. Dom took in a sharp breath. Kel? Pregnant? Impossible! Kel was the one person who was always responsible, always good. How could she let this happen?
She knew what he was thinking, but she was reluctant to explain. Dom didn't pressure her.
"No, you should know, if you know this much. I didn't mean for anything to happen. He just told me that he was getting married very soon, and he wanted to love me one more time, but I said no. he kept asking, and I still said no. but he kissed me, and he seemed so sad I couldn't push him away. And. . . it happened."
Dom nodded slowly. He knew vaguely who she was talking about, but he didn't ask.
"Are you going to leave the front?" He asked. Kel shook her head. "I can't. I can't just leave everyone like this. It's what they would expect a little girl to do. I'm not some court lady who can't take care of my self."
Dom put his hand on her shoulder. "Kel, you can't do this to yourself. You will get hurt. You have to tell someone."
Again, she shook her head. Dom felt anger rising in him at her ignorance and stubbornness. "Kel, if you don't tell someone soon, I will!"
She looked into his eyes. She seemed to plead with him, begging him not to tell. He hugged her, and she started to cry again. "I'm always here, Kel. But even if you don't, I will still ask you to tell someone."
She nodded and leaned on his shoulder. They sat in silence.
~end flashback~
Dom sighed as he watched her. He winced for her; he could see, even from far away, how much pain she was in. he'd been telling her for almost two months to tell someone. And she hadn't.
Dom knew it was time to go on his word.
When his shift was over, Dom went down to the Mess Hall for a late breakfast. He told himself he needed to think about it, but he knew it was time. As soon as he finished his meal, he walked to Raoul's, the commanding knight at the fort, office.
He knocked on the door. "Come in." A voice said. Dom opened the door, and Raoul looked up.
"Dom! How can I help you?" Raoul asked.
Dom took a deep breath. "It's about Kel. She's not well. I think she needs to go home."
Raoul shifted uneasily in his seat, but quickly settled and signalled Dom to sit down as well. "Dom," he said, "Kel is perfectly capable of telling me if she wishes to go home."
"But sir, she's to scared and stubborn to say anything! She's pregnant! And she can't say anything!"
Raoul stood up. "Good God, Sergeant, what did you do to her?" He hissed. He loved Kel like a daughter, and didn't want to see her hurt.
Dom raised his hands in defence. "Hey, it wasn't me! Maybe you should get the rest of the story from Kel. I'll go get her."
He walked out before Raoul could say anything.
A few minutes later, Kel walked in. "You wanted to see me, Sir?" She asked.
Raoul had to admit, she didn't look well, but she didn't really look pregnant. Of course, she had put on some weight, and she seemed to be in pain. He had never noticed it before.
He told her to sit down, which she did. "Now, I know this wasn't his place, and he knows it too, and he feels horrible, so don't yell at him, but, Dom told me. I know that you're pregnant."
Kel looked slightly shocked, but nodded. Raoul didn't know, but deep down, she was incredibly relieved.
"That's all he would say, he told me to ask you. And don't worry, he told me that you really didn't mean for this to happen."
There was a pause, then she spoke. "I didn't mean for anything to happen at all. It just. . . I just. . . Dom told me to go home. I didn't know how to say it."
Raoul looked at her. She was trying not to cry.
"Well, Kel, I'll let you go home for eighteen months. I'll send Dom as your escort so you don't have to explain it to anyone. After eighteen months, you can wait for an assignment. I won't let your friends go see you while they're on duty. If they're on duty, you're out of luck. And Kel," He added, "I expect you to come back with a kid named Raoul."
He smiled. Kel smiled back. "Thank you."
She jumped up and hugged him, which definitely shocked him a bit.
"Kel, you can leave this afternoon. Pack your things, you'll leave at one o'clock. I'll tell Dom."
She hugged him again, and added, "Please don't tell anyone. I want to explain it to them in letters."
