Zoey first realized something was wrong when she missed her period. Nervous and praying it wasn't what she thought, she snuck to the shop and bought a pregnancy test. It was sometime later that she was sitting cross-legged on her bed surrounded by her childish toys as she watched the small stick, waiting and hoping, begging that she wasn't….red.
"Oh fuck."
The small stick had turned a blood red and she groaned, lying back on her bed, her eyes unseeing of the roof to which she was staring at.
"I am so fucked!"
She lost track of how long she lay in that dazed state, staring blankly at her white ceiling. In a deceptively calm voice she spoke aloud.
"How am I meant to explain this one? Hey guys guess what I'm pregnant to Dren's kid." Yeah that would go over well and then there were her parents. She could just imagine how well that one was going to go. "Hey mum? Do you remember that time when I went on a cruise for work? Yeah well I actually got kidnapped by aliens and now I'm pregnant to one of their kids."
She snorted and sighed, rolling over to look out her window.
"Either way I'm screwed."
After a moment she started to think, 'I have what nine months? It would only be a few weeks old. Surely that isn't too late to get an abortion?'
She stood, knowing that she would never be able to kill a life no matter how young it was.
"Looks like I'm gonna have to tell the others at some stage." She dressed, preparing to walk to the café.
"Here goes nothing." she muttered, stepping out of her door.
The world tilted at crazy angles and the familial feeling of being sea sick washed over her. She dully noted that now she was in the basement of mew mew café when her stomach emptied itself right onto the floor. Much to the surprise and disgust of Elliot and Wesley who had been sitting on the chairs when she rippled into existence in the room.
"Zoey?" They both cried at the same time, leaping forward. After a bit of confusion they had her sitting down, both looking shocked as they stared at her.
"Zoey," began Elliot nervously, "Can you explain how you just used the cyniclon's teleportation to arrive in this room and then vomited on the floor?"
Zoey looked up at his eyes. They were full of honest concern and another emotion that she couldn't exactly follow.
"You guys remember when I was with Dren right?"
The two males nodded nervously unsure where this was going.
"Well, Dren and I, well we did some things and now I think I'm pregnant."
Total silence followed her comment. She felt the tears start to race down her cheeks. Arms wrapped around her and she buried her face into the warm chest, drenching the black shirt in her tears.
"It's okay Zoey." Elliot's voice was soft, gentle as he ran his hand up and down her spine, soothing her and calming her.
Wesley was the first to speak, his voice offering a soft sense of comfort.
"Zoey come here, I need to do some tests on your baby. The fact that you have animal blood in you and that Dren isn't human at all means we have no idea what this child could turn out like."
Zoey nodded dumbly as Elliot helped her to stand. In her trance like state she didn't even notice that his hand remained resting on the small of her back, didn't even notice the look in his eyes as he watched her sit on the bench waiting for Wesley to start his tests.
She closed her eyes, numb to it all but the words that were repeating in her mind. 'I'm pregnant to an alien who lives on the other side of the universe. Great.'
She sighed as Elliot trailed his fingers through her hair. Wesley's hands were firm and sure and it was several moment's later that he coughed.
"Well Zoey, I don't know how to tell you this but you are pregnant."
Zoey's heart stopped as she stared blankly at him. Elliot's hand stilled as he took in what was being said.
"Also Zoey, this is the bad part, if you wanted to get an abortion you wont be able too. Because of your cat genes and the fact Dren is a cyniclon, this child is actually in term two of its pregnancy. If you want to or not, you are going to have to keep it."
Zoey felt numb, it was all too much for her to take it. She stared down at her stomach eyes unfocused, trying to imagine the life that was growing in her.
-Millions of Light Years away-
Dren sat cross-legged on a branch, watching as crowds of people walked, passing underneath his tree. He rubbed one of his ears. They felt oddly warm and he sneezed softly. From behind him came a laugh and he turned to look at Sardon whose eyes were shut, enjoying the warm sunlight.
"The humans use to say that when you sneeze someone is talking about you, that and your ears burn."
Dren frowned before replying in a joking tone of voice.
"Didn't know you listened to those old tales."
Sardon's eyes opened as he looked at the young prince. Since their return, the usually hyperactive young boy had become softer spoken, more silent, thoughtful and kind hearted. Well more so than normal. Sardon closed his eyes again, thinking to himself. 'It must have been that mew cat, poor girl. Wonder how she is doing?' The older Cyniclon had no idea that his prince was also wondering how the girl, he'd affectionately named kitten, was doing.
