Zoey POV

I woke up a few hours later and my body was in very much pain. I couldn't remember at the moment why but then I looked to my left and saw Elliot sleeping next to me. I blinked my eyes a few times to make sure I wasn't bugging out but no he was there. I looked down and saw that I wasn't wearing clothing either. I hopped out of my bed and my legs felt like jello. I went to the bathroom and saw all hickey's that he left me.

Now I know this wasn't a dream. I had sex with Elliot. My boss. I had a mini panic attack but then I remember how much he treated me. He treated me like a princess. Better than what Mark did. I went back into my room after I washed up and got changed.

I laid back down and I felt him turn around to put his arm around me. He cuddled me close and I never had this feeling when I was with Mark. I felt as if I was on top of the world. He woke up slightly and he gave me a kiss on the lips. We made out and next thing we know he's inside me again. We had sex for the second time. I rode him and he well had sex with me. It felt right but also wrong. Once we were officially done we took a shower and then back to my bed to cuddle some more.

I heard my door open but I was too deep into my sleep to care at the moment. I woke up the next morning and I realized Elliot wasn't here. I was a bit sad but I saw a text. "Good morning beautiful. I hope you had a goodnight sleep. I went home before the sun rose. I hope you enjoyed last night and I hope you enjoy your day. Love Elliot" I blushed at the text and got up from my bed. I went downstairs to saw my mom in the kitchen.

"Morning" I was very cheerful

"Someone is in a good mood" She turned around and looked at me.

"Um" I said trying to hide my excitement

"Just so you know. I know" She smirked

I instantly blushed not knowing what she meant.

"Huh?" I tried playing stupid.

"I came back early last night. To my surprise I see my daughter having sex with her boss. Care to explain?" She had her hands on her hips. I swore I could die of embarrassment if it were an option right now.

"M- mom… it's not what you think" I couldn't get a word out.

"Zoey… Just be safe please." Mom said and I sighed as I knew I worried her a lot. She then grabbed my hand and led me to the kitchen table. "So… I know this is going to sound weird but…. How was it?! Because he is a handsome boy and I wish you lost your virginity to him instead" My jaw dropped. I couldn't believe what I was hearing! I didn't go into details but she seemed happy for me. Once I changed my clothes I left out the house and went over to Mark's since he has our child with him.

I knocked on his door and his father answered the door. "Hello." He seemed annoyed at my presence. I didn't care though. It was his son who knocked me up.

"Is Mark and Emmie here?" I questioned

"He's upstairs playing with her" He let me in but you can smell the attitude off of him. "MARK. Come downstairs with Emmie. Her mother is here!" He yelled out to his son. I stood by the stairs as I saw Mark coming down half way and motioned me to come upstairs. I followed him to his room and he closed the door behind me. Emmie was on the ground playing with a toy car.

"Emmie" I spoke. She looked back at me and gave me a smile.

"Mama!" She got up and ran towards me. I picked her up and carried her.

"Mommy missed you so much" I gave her a kiss on her forehead.

"I miss mommy too" Mark smirked and I rolled my eyes.

"How was she?" I asked as I put her down.

"Well behaved. An angel"I can hear the sarcasm in his voice

"Good. Can I leave her here for one more night? I have things that I need to get done." I watched as Emmie played with building blocks.

"Hm. Gonna cost you"

"What could you possibly want from me?"

"A date. Listen I know I've been weird lately but I wanted to prove my worth to you." I looked at him and shook my head.

"I can't. I have a whole child to take care of. Her first birthday is soon. So I have to get to planning that. Summer vacation starts on Tuesday. So I'll be working nonstop. Plus you said you wanted to be closer to your child" I crossed my arms.

"Oh come on Zoe. You hate me that much." He bit his lip in anger.

"I don't hate you. I just don't see you like that. I just see you as Emmie's father. You have failed every chance that I gave you. You can't be trusted" I hissed quietly so I wouldn't alert Emmie.

"But he has your trust doesn't he?" I knew he was referring to Elliot.

"N- No. It's not like that" I hesitated which he picked up on.

"You cannot lie to me Zoey. You are in love with him and it's clear as day. Emmie calls his dada. You think I wouldn't notice. Is it because he's rich? Better looking? Like stop punishing me for not being him. I want to be a father to my daughter and he will not take that away from me." I can see his fits clenching.

"Mark. Whatever Elliot and I do is our business. I did not teach Emmie to call him dada. He's just there more than you. She would call you dad if you wasn't such a dick and avoiding her when I ask you to take her. And if I were to date him it wouldn't be because of his looks or how much money he has. It's is because he treats me better. Also he doesn't want to take your role as a father he just does it better" I picked up Emmie. "This was a mistake letting her stay here with you" I began to walk out of the room but Emmie started to cry.

"Dada…" She cried softly. I stopped in my tracks and turned around to look at Mark who was just as stunned as I was.

"D- Did she just say dada?" Mark looked at our child in disbelief

"Dada…" Emmie says once more. He walked over to us and she held out her small hand. We looked at each other in the eyes as Emmie clinged onto me and held his hand.

"Seems like your child is trying to tell you something." Mark's father said as he stood in the doorway. "Children can sense the tension between their parents. I suggest you two work out some type of an agreement" He fixed his glasses. I looked at Mark once more. His father was right.

"We'll talk later. Just take Emmie. I don't want to argue anymore" He let go of Emmie's hand. He got her bag together and hanged it to me. Without a word I left Mark's home with a crying child. I sighed as I walked the rest of the way home. I rang the doorbell and the door swung open. To my surprise Elliot was the one behind the door and inside my house.

"Elliot…" I whispered. He gave me a warm smile and I hugged him as tears fell from my eyes. I know he was confused as to why I was crying. My mom walked over and took Emmie from me and I was still in Elliott's arms. He walked me upstairs to my room and I told him everything. He assured me that he would be by my side no matter what I choose. He understood that me and Mark would have to co-parent if anything.

"Zoey, I do love you. I want what's best for you." He held my hand.

"I love you too, Elliot. Thank you" He pulled me in and we shared a deep kiss. At this point we began to date but in secret. The only one who knew as of now was my mom. She was happy for us when we went downstairs to tell her. She had Emmie dressed in some kind of duck dress. I was kind of annoyed with it but my baby looked cute regardless. I took a picture of our new little family. Me, Emmie and Elliot. At this point Elliot said he was her step-father.

During the summer vacation I spent most of my time working and being a mother. I would occasionally go on dates with Elliot but we kept our distance at work and in public during the day time. At night we go on small dates or we just chill at his place.

Mark and I came up with an agreement. He would spend every other week with Emmie for the summer vacation. We didn't speak much unless it was related to Emmie and her health. He would pick her up and drop her off.

As for Wesley and Renee delma. We haven't really heard much from her. She got another modeling gig like a week after the whole thing that happened. I still find it weird that all happened.

When it came to working at the café, Corina is still lazy but she also picked up her weight. She gave up on trying to run after Renee and is more focused on making a name for herself in her fashion line. Bridget was offered a scholarship for a college of her choice. I couldn't be more proud of her. Kiki is still the same immature but she has grown up a bit more. She is now 15 and acts accordingly. She gets help from the school to take care of her younger siblings. Her siblings are now around the ages of 7-10 so they are mostly able to take care of themselves while she is gone.

School started and I was now a senior in high school. Everything was going well so far. Same classes it was better than nothing. I heard the teacher who verbally harassed me got fired for sleeping with another student and I wasn't surprised to hear the news. Lunchtime rolled around and I ate on the roof with my best friend's Megan and Mimi.

"How was your summer break Zoey? We haven't heard much from you" Megan picked into her food.

"Yea what's been going on?" Mimi looked at me

"Been busy working and being a mother. I apologize for not talking much. My daughter is about to be 1 years old and this is very overwhelming for me." I sighed with joy and frustration.

"Oh my. I forgot she was about to turn 1 years old. Boy does time fly" Mimi eyes lit up

"What are you planning for her big day?" Megan shoved a spoonful of food into her mouth

"Throwing her a birthday party at the cafe. Mark and I are doing something together for a change. And Elliot is covering the funds" I took a sip of my water.

"Elliot and Mark under the same roof? That is something I have to see" Megan snickered as she wiped her mouth with a tissue.

"How are you and Mark doing? Last I remember you telling us that you two don't talk anymore." Mimi played with her hair. She barely touched her food.

I forgot that I haven't really updated my life nor told them about Elliot and I dating . I think it's best if they knew since they are my best friends and closest friends. "Zoey?" I heard Mimi call my name as I realized I was zoned out.

"Hm." I shook my head and saw Mark standing by the only exit. I told Mimi and Megan that I will see them in class and that should come over to my place afterwards. They nodded and quickly left. Mark walked over to me but stood next to the chair Mimi was just in.

"Hello" I looked at him but my heart was racing for some reason.

"Long time no speak" He took a seat.

"Yea… we made it clear unless it's about Emmie we don't speak to each other." My heart raced faster. Was I about to have another anxiety attack?

"That's why I am here. Over the summer, was hard for me not to talk to you. Just being a dad to our child and not saying a word afterwards killed me inside. I know you don't want me but can we just try and, be friends for Emmie sake. She's going to be one in like two weeks and I don't want her growing up thinking we hate each other." He took a deep breath and let it out.

"I guess…" I whispered.

"Are you okay?" I guess he can tell when I am not myself. Stupid Mark.

"I have to go…" I got up and rushed downstairs. My stomach was feeling queasy and I wanted nothing more than to vomit. I managed to get to the girl's bathroom and throw up. Luckily no other girls were in here. Was it something I ate? No that can't be. I was fine earlier. Being near Mark makes my stomach hurt or maybe not. I don't know. I know I can't be pregnant because I had my time of the month a week ago plus Elliot and I haven't really had sex other that one time.

I washed my mouth and cleaned myself up but as I walked out the bathroom Mark was standing there. I instantly felt dizzy. I tried to walk away from him but my legs felt like jello. I can hear him calling my name out but I felt my body shake and I collapsed onto the floor. I saw him kneel over to my body and he held my had as he yelled for help. I wanted to speak but nothing came out. I closed my eyes and from there I knew that I had blacked out.

Elliott's POV

Summer was weird but amazing. Zoey and I started dating. I thought it was a dream but no it was really happening. I could be any more happier. Her daughter and family loves me. This was what I needed a new start to autumn.

Wesley and I got closer in friendship when we talked about the whole Renee mess. He's glad that they were able to fix whatever happened between them before she left. Typical Renee never taking a break.

As for the other girls they matured in their own ways. Kiki no longer has to watch over her siblings as much since they are old enough to start taking care of themselves. Corina actually pulls her weight and helps while Bridget has been awarded with a scholarship to a college of her choice. I am honestly proud of these ladies. After the fight two years ago with the aliens everything has gotten somewhat normal. I still make sure to watch out for the girls and their animal half.

I looked at my watch and it said 13:45pm. (1:00pm) Zoey usually calls me around this time after having lunch with her friends. This was weird unless Mark is trying to talk to her. I waited another five minutes but no call. I felt a sharp pain in my chest and I felt like I couldn't breathe.

"Wesley…" I yelled out. Wesley came to the kitchen and saw me clutching my chest.

"Elliot!" He ran over to my side and picked me up then put me on the couch. "What is going on?" He asked with fear in his voice. I couldn't explain because I felt dizzy and soon enough I couldn't speak. My body shook and I then blacked out.

Wesley POV

Elliott just passed out in front of me. I was shocked and mortified because this never happened to him before. As I tried to call for help his phone was ringing. I reached into his pockets and I saw it was Zoey's mom.

"Hello" I tried not to sound worried but it was clear as day she was worried.

"Elliot?" I can hear her voice crack. Something was differently wrong.

"Uh sorry. It's me Wesley. Elliot is sleeping right now" I lied. "Is there anything I can do to help" I tried to sound as cheerful as possible.

"Can you please tell him…" She began to sob. "Zoey is on her way to the emergency room. So is Emmie" I heard her sobbing even more. "What hell is going on…" I questioned myself. "He- Hello?" She said.

"I- I'm sorry… I'll let him know as soon as he wakes up" I was hesitant to tell her the truth. I hung up the phone and ran downstairs to the lab. There in big fat letters the screen read "DANGER" It seemed to be affecting each Mew Mew. Soon enough I was right. I got a call from Bridgette's mother, Corina's brother, Kiki siblings and it was on TV that Renee was being rushed to the emergency room. I wasn't sure if the experiment started to fail.

I began to type in a few things into the keyboard. I am no Elliot but I will figure out something. Apparently the DNA between theirs and the animal's has been crossing over one another and the body doesn't know which ones it wants. I have to find an antidote fast or all of them could lose their lives.

I had called an ambulance for Elliot and he was rushed to the hospital. I managed to get them all in the same hospital (expected Renee since she was too far) so that way it would be easier to give them antidote as soon as I find or make one.

I worked day and night trying to decode things while all of them were in a deep slumber. A week went by and I still didn't have my answer nor was I close but then I remembered that Elliot hid stuff in his room. I ransacked his room trying to find what I was looking for. I found a pink book but wasn't his. It was his mother's book who passed away when he was young. Surely this had the answers. I flipped through the pages and it did.

It explained if the project ever went awol that we had to reverse some of whatever and add their favorite thing into it. I wasn't hundred percent sure what that meant. But I made an antidote for everyone. Hopefully this works. I snuck into the hospital at night and slipped the antidote into their IV bags. It was a bit harder to get into Emmie's room but I did it. Next I sent out one to Renee through a private investor.

I went into Elliott's room and waited. I must've waited for a long time because it was day time and I felt someone shake me awake. To my surprise it was Elliot. He looked alive and well. I leaped out of my seat and gave him a big hug. The doctors did test after test but they couldn't find how he and the others healed so quickly so they sent them all home.

I had them all besides Renee come to the café so I could explain what the hell happened. They were all shocked and horrified that this happened but relieved that I fixed everything. They all gave me their thanks and everything was semi back to normal or so I hoped.

Senior: I know I said Zoey was a sophomore but I meant to put Junior. So Zoey is now a senior in high school.

As for Wesley I though he should have a part in this story so this idea came up.
