You know what it means to dream about fish right?

~Fish
At the pool, four, well, there are four people but only the three of them are having a good time. The sun is nice and warm today, so a lovely dip was what the group...well...the three of them decided. Let's join them; The three are playfully fighting and slashing water on the other...the fourth is looking from under the shade drinking iced coffee.

LINA: Hey! Let's play chicken! C'mon, Zel! We need four people to play chicken!

ZEL: ::Looks at her:: I think I'll decline, thank you.

GOURRY: Well, I'm actually starting to get hungry. How about we get something to eat now?

AMELIA: I agree!

LINA: I third that option!

::They climb out but as Lina climbs up the ladder, she woggles a bit, then, she falls back into the water, unconscience::

GOURRY: Lina! ::he dives back in to get her out::

ZEL: Lay her down. Amelia, start fanning her.

::after a few minutes they get worried::

AMELIA: She looks so pale...

ZEL: There's a medical doctor's office down the street. Let's take her there. ::all nod::

~~~

::Lina wakes up to see the doctor looking over her::

DOCTOR: I'm glad you're awake, dearie.

LINA: Wha...what happened..?

DOCTOR: You passed out in the pool. It's a good thing your friends were there or else you might have drown.

LINA: Wh...Why did I pass out...?

DOCTOR: Oh, dearie, you should be very happy! Congratulations, you're pregnant!

LINA: ::wide-eyed:: WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

~~~

:the others hear Lina screaming::

AMELIA: I guess she's awake.

::they hear more screaming, something about 'you're full of crap', 'you lying', followed by other curse words. There's a phrase about 'only a few times' in there as well. The three just shrug. When they hear Lina crying, they get up and to check on her::

GOURRY: Lina, what's wrong?

LINA: ::goes quiet::

AMELIA: Are you okay? Is something wrong?

LINA: Nothing's wrong!! That's it, let's go. I had enough of this ::she gets up but stumbles a lil. Gourry has to catch her:: I'm fine!! ::pushes him off and walks out the door. The rest follow with a confused look::

~~~

ZEL: Lina, what did the doctor say?

LINA: ...He said I needed a shot and I hate needles...a lot.

ZEL: ::glares::

GOURRY: Well, are you feeling okay, Lina?

LINA: I'm perfectly fine!

~~~

::later that night, after dinner, Lina locks herself in her inn room and goes to sleep::

~Lina's dream~

::It's a beautiful beach, the waters are clear, the sky is blue, the sun isn't bearing down to much. Like a tropical vacation. Lina sits down to enjoy the view, a couple of fishmen swim in the distance of the water, something with a purple tail and blonde pigtails is swimming like a dolphin. Lina shrugs. She lays back and soaks up the warm sun. Then she feels something poking at her::

???: Excuse me?

LINA: What? ::turns to see a handful of lil children around her:: Umm...can I help you?

KID1: This is the spot, right?

LINA: Huh?

KID2: This looks so pretty! This is the perfect spot!

LINA: Are you kids lost or something? Where's your mommy?

KID3: What are you talking about?

LINA: Hey, that's my line.

KID4: ::looks at water:: Wow! The water looks great! Let's go swimming!

KID1: YAY! Is that alright?

LINA: Uhh...Yeah...you don't have to ask me...

ALL KIDS: Let's go! ::They run to the water::

::As Lina watches them go to the water, the children start to change. They look like little jellyfishes::

LINA: What? ...WAIT! Who are you?! ::kids ignore her as they go into the ocean, Lina gets up and follows them:: Get back here now!

::Lina trips on a conch and as she's about to hit the sand face first she wakes up::

LINA: AHHH!!!

GOURRY: Lina! It's okay. It's just a dream.

LINA: How the hell did you get in here?!

GOURRY: You locked the door, so I had to use the window...It's bad enough we have to be so secretive about this but when I have to sneak through the window~

LINA: Shut up! ::hits him:: I just had a totally weirdo dream and it's all because of you, you jerk! It's all YOUR fault!!

GOURRY: What'd I do?! What'd I do?! ::cowers::

LINA: Get over here.

GOURRY: ...::looks at Lina...looks away::

LINA: I said COME!

GOURRY: ::whimpers over::

LINA: ::grabs him by the collar and pulls him to her face:: Ya wanna know what the doctor told me? Why I fainted today?

GOURRY: Umm...sure...

LINA: He told me me I'm pregnant! You hear that?! ::shakes him roughly:: Pregnant!! ::shakes him more:: You got me knocked up, you *curse word* jellyfish!! I'm gonna kick yer ass, blondie!

GOURRY: WHAT?!! WHAT?!!

LINA: You heard me! I'm gonna have a baby! ::throws him to the floor with a scream::

GOURRY: Ouch...Ba...::looks up at Lina:: A Baby?

LINA: *wince* Yeah, you heard me!

GOURRY: You're...You're gonna have a baby?

LINA: You already asked that!

GOURRY: We're gonna have baby?

LINA: *wince* Ye...yeah...

GOURRY: Oh...oh my gods...::puts hand to head:: I'm gonna be a father...a daddy...

LINA: *wince* Yeah...::looks thoughtfully at her feet::

GOURRY: ::gets up and goes to her:: A baby...

LINA: ...

GOURRY: Can...Can I listen?

LINA: ?...Okay ::sits down as he puts his head on her stomach::

GOURRY: Ha...I feel like there's a big pit in my stomach...::his hands are shaking::

LINA: Yeah, well, I actually do have something in my stomach, so there!

GOURRY: Okay, Mommy...

LINA: Ma...Mommy?! I'm gonna be a mommy?!?!

ZEL: ::through door:: What're you two screaming about in the middle of the night?

AMELIA: Is everything okay?

ZEL: I heard the word mommy. Something you want to tell us, Lina?

LINA: ...................

GOURRY: Don't mind them... ::still has his head on her stomach:: We'll deal with them in the morning ::he looks up and kisses her::

LINA: ::sighs and smiles:: Thank you...

GOURRY: Thank you, Lina.

::they both go to sleep in bliss, Gourry's hand on her stomach with Lina resting her head on his chest::



AMELIA: You think they're going to answer us?

ZEL: I think we're the fools for waiting here so long for a reply...
