*Lucy's POV*

"It's just, i really love hiiiim. You know what I mean?" Yukino slurs "I know he's an anime character, but i think he loves me too.."

I stare at her blankly.

"I totally get it! I have a waifu too!" Levy throws her arms up dramatically.

I look at Wendy with an exhausted grimace on my face. She turns to me at the same time with the same tiredness etched on her face as well.

Earlier Levy was digging around the master bedroom and found a drawer of liquor in the desk. Of course Yukino had to help herself too, which is why Wendy, Yukino, Levy, and I ended up sitting on the floor of one of the 3 other bedrooms, excluding the master.

This room obviously belonged to some weeaboo teenager, the walls are painted with smooth black and white stripes, with dozens of random anime posters, doodles, and even candy wrappers. The book shelf is crammed with yaoi, yuri, shoujo, shounen ai, and adventure manga. On top of the bookshelf are about 20 or so anime action figures, some still in their boxes, some not. The queen size bed has a black frame, purple pillows, and a red comforter.

I get on my knees and lazily lunge onto the bed. The comforter smells faintly of weed and some kind of cheap, drugstore perfume.

I feel the weight of the bed shift as Wendy sits next to me.

I look at her, then at the other two, warning them for what feels like the hundredth time.

"Guys, you'll wake up Natsu and Gray!" I whisper yell.

"Sorry, babe." Levy drunkenly flirts. I roll my eyes, who knew she was such a floozy when she's drunk? Yukino and Levy continue rambling back and forth, almost as if i never interrupted them. Why do I even bother?

"Lucy," Wendy sounds like she has something important to say.

"Yeah?" I sit up and look her in the eye.

"I know." Wendy explains, badly.

"Know what?" I find myself in a state of utter and complete confusion.

"Lucy, I know that you're pregnant." Wendy says with a dead face.

My world crashes behind Wendy's eyes as I keep staring at her. My worst fear confirmed.

"But.. That's impossible. It's supposed to be way harder for me to get... What... You must be wrong." I fumble for words.

"Lucy. You know i can't be wrong."

"I mean, I've been looking for a test for a while. But i just thought it was just the stress stopping my period." I feel reality catch up with me. "No, wait, no! I can't have a baby here! Not now! Not with how it is out there!" I grab Wendy's shoulders as if she could stop what's already happened. "How long?!" I clutch Wendy tighter, bringing her closer like the lifeline she is toe right now.

"How long what?" Wendy brings her hands to my biceps, squeezing once, whether it's a sign I should loosen up or her trying to give me moral support, I can't tell.

"How long till it's born? How long till i show? How long since you've known?" The questions fall out of my mouth clumsily.

Wendy pauses for a few seconds before she responds, "I've known for about a week, I don't know when you'll start to show, it depends on the person. If you want the first answer, i have to check."

"GUYS, we're going back to the master room!" Yukino says as she waves and steps out, both her and Levy's arms full of manga from the shelves. As Yukino steps into the hallway, i see her brighten the light she's been steadily producing using her celestial magic. I sigh and power mine up a bit as well, without two of is in the room producing light it got significantly dimmer.

"Okay. Check. Please?" I sigh, bringing my hands to my still fairly trim stomach.

Without a word, Wendy motions for me to lie down, i do so and close my eyes. I feel like i could throw up any minute, there's cold sweat all over my forehead, back, neck, chest, and arms.

Wendy pulls up my t shirt and suddenly there are cool hands on my abdominal area.

I immediately tense and my eyes open.

"Calm down. This is nothing new, you aren't the first woman to accidentally get pregnant, it's gonna be okay." I can tell Wendy is trying to calm me down, it's almost working.

"I'll start now.." She whispers softly.

I nod and close my eyes again.

From behind my eyelids i can tell another light is in the room, i crack open an eye and look at Wendy, whose hands are glowing a pale, powdery blue.

I close my eye again and take a deep breath.

"Okay, i know now." I hear Wendy mumble.

"And?" I prop myself up on my elbows.

"You're probably going to give birth in about 6 months.."

My mind is reeling, "But i started having sex like barely two months ago.. Don't you mean 7 months?"

"Well.. Both of the fetuses are the children of dragonslayers, so they'll develop faster." Wendy says hesitantly. I breathe a sigh of relief, until i feel my blood run cold.

"Wait.. What did you say?" I feel panick scratching at my lungs, climbing it's way to my throat.

"... Both... You're having twins.."

"What?" I whisper, pushing myself to sit up properly.

"You're having twins. With different fathers." Wendy moves a hand to my shoulder, "You have my support. What is your plan? Are you going to tell them?"

"What?" I feel surreal.

This can't be happening. This is crazy. This is impossible. What...?

"Lucy.. You heard me. Breathe." Wendy calmly coaxes me.

"Oh shit.." I gasp, "What am I going to do!? I can't have two! Two human beings!? Oh my god!" I whisper shriek. "How am i gonna tell Rogue?! HOW AM I GOING TO TELL GAJEEL?!"

I bring my legs up and rest my hands on my knees before putting my forehead on my hands.

"Lucy, it's okay, you're not alone. We'll take care of you, we're your family." Wendy rubs my back soothingly.

"But i am alone.. None of you have been through this. None of you could possibly understand.. I can't have a kid. I can't have TWO kids! I can't bring children into this world, when i know they're going to die! What if i die and i can't take care of them?! What if i can't feed them or if i take my eyes off them for one second and they die?! I don't think i can handle that! I don't think I can handle this."

"Lucy, it's going to be okay, we're all here for you, we'll help you take care of them. They'll never be alone or unsafe, and neither will you!" Wendy's hands fly to my shoulders forcing me to look at her. "We will take care of you. All three of you." Wendy says with conviction.

"I don't want that. This is my problem. I'll solve it." I announce with finality. "Aries," i call as my fingers brush the keys in my pocket.

Aries appears in a flash of golden light.

"Yes, Lucy?" She mumbles, "Sorry."
