DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ALEX RIDER

Request: "The Talk" in Almost All Dialogue. (100 words precisely!)


"Alex, come here for a minute!"

"What's wrong?"

"We need to have The Talk."

"What?"

"Alex, do you know how babies are made?"

"Yes...?"

"Okay, well I want you to forget all that you think you know."

"Why?"

"Because it's all been a lie. I'm going to tell you how babies are made."

"So it doesn't happen when a healthy egg meets the sperm?"

"No, the stork isn't—wait. What did you say?"

"Don't mummies and daddies have sexual intercourse to make a baby?"

Ian blinked, leaning back in his seat. Alex was a smart kid. Why was he surprised?


A/N: Thanks for your support, guys! It's been rough, including everything that's happening nowadays. OKAY, so I wasn't going to rant, but I really can't hold it it. I'm a teenage girl, and teenagers have doubts and are self-conscious. So why is it that when I'm finally okay with how I look—hair, body, face—someone has to try to knock me down? It may have just been teasing, but I've said on multiple occasions it's not okay.

Anyway, it just frustrates me, and I wanted to get it off my chest (because no one listens to me at home), but their comments don't and won't affect how I feel about myself! Just wanted to rant a little :P

You guys are awesome, and I don't even know how to thank you for supporting me through my rough patches! Leave more requests in the reviews!
