Ch.4: Glaceon's News and Carol's Decision
(Kage's P-O-V.)
"Suicune's your aunt?" I was more confused then I was ten minutes ago, "Why didn't you tell me that Suicune is my aunt?" Carol asked her farther. "She takes pride of being a Legendary." Coldfront told us, "Yeah, I noticed." I thought to myself, "She calls me a disgrace to be called a Legendary." "Why?" Carol asked. "Because he mated with a human." I said. I looked at Carol, she had tears in her eyes, "Carol." Coldfront said, she ran upstairs, after hearing her name. The next thing we hear was a door slamming. I didn't know what to do. On one hand: I could have someone I care about traveling with us, but have her family member who truly despises her furious. On the other hand: she can stay here, but I would lonely. I lost my third theory, when I felt something nudging my leg. "Kage?" asked Glaceon, I looked down at the Ice-type, "Yeah?" "You should go talk to her." I just looked at her, she knew exactly what I was thinking. "I feel that my daughter has feelings for you." Coldfront told me. After a second of thinking, I decided to talk to Carol. I quickly headed up stairs. Once at the top, I stood in front of Carol's door. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. I waited for about ten seconds, then a response came, "Go away." "Carol? It's me." I said. "Kage?" she asked. "Yeah. I need to talk to you." "About what?" "I rather talk to you face to face." I replied. The door open, but only enough to see each other. "What do you want to talk about?" Carol asked me. I was having trouble finding my words, I was about to say three little words, until we heard Jolteon yelled, "Kage!" I rushed down stairs with Carol close behind me. We got to the living room, we saw Jolteon with a worried face. Getting the message I looked at Glaceon, it look like she was in pain, "Glaceon? What's wrong?" I asked her, "It's my stomach!" she said through gritted teeth. "What's going on?" asked Carol, "Something's wrong with Glaceon." I told her, "Should I call Nurse Joy?" she asked, "Anything!" Jolteon barked at us. "You should watch your tone, while talking to my daughter." barked Coldfront, "Oh I'm sorry, it's not like your mate is in pain at the moment!" Jolteon barked back. I looked back at Carol, she just got off the phone and she looked at me, "I just got off the phone with Nurse Joy." she told me. "And?" I asked, "She said she'll get here as fast as she can." Carol replied, "But that could take-" I was interrupted when the front door opened and a female voice said, "I'm here!" "Seconds." I finished. Nurse Joy walked towards me, "Where's the Pokemon?" she asked, "It's Glaceon, I don't know what's wrong with her." I told her. Nurse Joy and I looked at Glaceon, but she seemed fine now. I noticed she was still panting heavily, Nurse Joy notice this as well. "I think I know what's wrong with her." Nurse Joy told us, "I should get started." "Ok." I replied, "Jolteon." Jolteon didn't move to my call, I can tell he was worried that Glaceon wasn't going to fine. "I'll be fine, Jolteon." Glaceon reassured him. He gave her a short nod, then followed Carol and I into the kitchen. I notice that Coldfront went up stairs.
It's been about fifteen minutes, since Nurse Joy came to Carol's house. Jolteon was pacing the entire time. "Jolteon calm down, will ya?" I asked him, "I can't." he replied, "What if she's was injured from that battle or-" "Jolteon." Carol interrupted him, "She'll be fine." Right after she said that, I knew she and Glaceon will be good friends. I realized that I need to tell her how I feel right now. "Carol?" "Yes?" she asked, "I need to tell you something." "What is it?" I looked straight into her eyes, to show her I was telling the truth. "Carol," I hesitated, "I lo-" "Excuse me." Nurse Joy said, "Jolt-Jolt-Jolteon?" Jolteon asked Nurse Joy, though through Carol's and my ears, Jolteon asked, "How's Glaceon?" "There's nothing to worry about, Jolteon." Nurse Joy calmly told him. Jolteon left the kitchen to see Glaceon. Then Nurse Joy looked at me, " Glaceon's fine, then?" I asked, "Yes she's fine." she replied, "Your Glaceon will be due in about three weeks." "What?" I asked, "You didn't know?" she asked, I was stunned, "Glaceon is due?" Carol asked Nurse Joy. "I'll let you two handle this." she replied, then left the house in seconds. Coming out of my shock, Carol and I walked into the living room, Glaceon was laying on the couch and Jolteon was sitting on the floor next to her. "How are you feeling?" Jolteon asked, "Much better, now." Glaceon replied. She licked his cheek, which he enjoyed, "Glaceon?" I asked, she stopped licking Jolteon and looked at me, "Yes?" "Do you have something to tell us?" Glaceon sighed, "Mostly to Jolteon." Jolteon was now concern, "What's wrong?" he asked, Glaceon smiled at her mate, "I'm pregnant."
Jolteon was stun with the news, "You two are going to have a pup." I said, "Congratulations, you two!" Carol happily added. I saw Jolteon gave off a smile, "I'm going to be a father." he said. Carol and I sat at the other side of the room, to give the would-be parents some space. Carol and I looked at each other, our eyes met each other, to my surprise Carol quickly shifted her gaze back to my friends, "Ok, that's strange." I thought. I had to tell her, before it's too late, "Carol?" she looked at me with those beautiful eyes and to my second surprise, she was blushing, "Y-yes, Kage?" she stammered, "I need to tell you something, before we leave tomorrow." I took a deep breath and said, "I love you." Carol's face turned even more red, "You love me?" she asked, "Yes." I replied, "It's hard to explain." I was about to continue my sentence, until she swung her arms around me, then to my third surprise, she quietly sobbed into my shoulder. I warped my arms around her and held her close to me. "I guess she doesn't want to be alone as well." I thought, then an idea hit me like Raikou hitting me with his Thunder for training. I held Carol a little in front of me, so we can see eye to eye, "Carol?" I asked, she looked at me with sadden tearful eyes, "Why don't you come traveling with us." "What?" "If you travel with us, we won't be separated for each other." "So, Glaceon was right?" she asked, "Right about what?" I asked her, "You've chosen me to be your mate." and just when I thought no more surprises was going to happen, I had my fourth surprise. Now, I turned bright red, "Glaceon thought that?" was all I could say. I looked over at Glaceon and she gave me a short nod. I looked back at Carol, she was giving a look that wanted an answer, I sighed, "Yes, Glaceon's right." "I should talk to my parents." Carol replied with a smile. She went upstairs to talk to them and I looked at Glaceon, she gave me a sheepish smile, "Did you lie to Carol, saying that I was looking for a mate after a few weeks you and Jolteon evolved?" I asked her, "Maybe." she replied all innocently. I looked at her with a stern glare, then I heard someone coming down the stairs, I turned to see Carol with an upset face, "I guess it's not good news?" I asked, but instead of a replied, I was- once again- surprised, when Carol pressed her lips against mine. When we parted our lips, Carol gave me a pleasant smile, "My farther is letting me travel with you." she said, "I take it, you told him what I said?" "I did." This was the happiest day of my life, my mate is traveling with us.
