Hello, blazingalex here. I'm trying to avoid killing main and supporting characters, but I will if I have to. I read a review and thank you for being critical. Yes, I agree with you. It has been going a bit fast, and I'm sorry. This chapter will contain a phone call. This will be indicated by quotation marks and italic lettering.
To recap, Alex came home, a new roommate named Taylor, Hanna is a lesbian, Taylor learned how to fight, and Sasha got knocked out. WARNING: Sexual themes may occur. This is rated M for a reason. I do NOT own Pokemon, or anything related in this story. Enjoy.
Chapter 5: Whoops
I woke up the next day, my head was hurting. Chloe was already up. I got out of bed and got dressed. I went into the kitchen and saw Hanna and Taylor eating breakfast.
"Where's Chloe?" I asked them. They both shrugged their shoulders. I heard a noise coming from the bathroom, like someone was vomiting. I walked closer, peering in and seeing my wife with her head in the porcelain. She appeared to be holding something in her hand.
"Chloe?" I stepped in. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah," she answered. "Well, no. Not really."
"What's wrong?" I asked, crouching down next to her. She held up the item she was holding. It was a pregnancy test.
"I think I'm pregnant." I couldn't believe it. I felt excited, worried, and nervous all at once.
"Guys hurry up! You're going to be late for class!" Hanna yelled.
"Hold on!" I shouted back. I turned back to Chloe. "Well, if you are then that's good, right?"
"Alex, you know that we can't raise a child. We have school. There is no way for us to be there for the kid." I put my hands on top of my head.
"You're right. Arceus, what are we going to do?"
"You dickwads better get moving!" Hanna shouted.
"Come on, we better get moving," I told Chloe, helping her up.
I arrived to class just before the bell. History was even more chaotic than ever. Desks were flipped over, paper balls and rubber bands were being launched, and there were pencils stuck in the walls.
"Alex!" The professor said. "Choose a side! We are having our own version of World War I!" I quickly threw my stuff down into a corner and dove behind a desk. I gathered up a whole bunch of "ammo" and fired at the other side.
"Cover me!" A familiar voice said. I looked over and saw Bradley. He was going in. I went over next to him and started to defend him. He looked up at me and nodded, giving his thanks. I nodded back at him as he made a paper clip launcher. He stood up and fired at a Leafeon, knocking him to the ground. I stood up from cover and threw a paper ball, hitting our professor. Everything stopped. The Kakuna stood back up.
"Winners!" He announced, pointing to me. My team cheered and hugged me, congratulating me on the win. We all picked up the ammo and returned to our base. The next round was going to start and we needed to elect a new leader. The Pokemon started to discuss the choices.
"I think it should be Alex since he won the last round."
"I agree, it should be Alex."
"I think we should stick with our old leader and put Alex onto the front lines."
"Who votes to put Alex as our new leader?" A few hands rose. "Who votes to keep our old leader?" I raised my hand along with a few other students. "Then it's settled. We keep our old leader." We all took our positions; I was up front with Bradley, a Charmeleon, and a Quilava. When we were given the signal to start, everyone stood up. Everyone except me. I was playing smart. Some of my teammates were taken down and "killed". Others sustained "injuries" from battle. I gathered up some paper balls and rubber bands, handing some to my team. I peered over the desk and found multiple targets that I could possible hit. I took aim and fired, taking down almost all the targets. I ducked back down, avoiding the paper.
"Alex! Take this!" Bradley shouted, tossing me a rubber band and paper clip. I loaded up and got ready to make my move. I poked my head over the desk and saw the Kakuna. I stood up and fired. I hit him, but the war kept going. Before I could take cover again, I got hit in the head by a rubber band and fell down dramatically. Everyone stopped firing and turned to my direction. I got back up and dusted myself off.
"What?" I asked. "I'm not the leader for this team." I made my way over to the "mass grave" and sat down. Nobody moved a muscle until Bradley took a shot and knocked down a Bayleef.
"I got your guys' leader!" He shouted. The bell rang and we cleaned up the large mess we made. I headed off to my next class, Gym.
I stepped out of the locker room and sat down next to Chloe.
"Hey, you okay?" I asked her.
"Yeah, I'm fine. You?"
"I died in combat today."
"You always die for some reason."
"Oh, no, I didn't actually die. We were re-enacting World War I in history and I 'died.'"
"Well, if you didn't really die, then it's okay. Whelp, today is our first football game. Excited?"
"I have been looking forward to this. So, are you really pregnant?"
"From what the results say, yes. What am I going to tell my parents?" Just then, the gym coach came out, holding a clipboard.
"Today is the beginning of the flag football games. There are four teams, and each team will have seven players. First off, team one. Meghan, Riley, Nick, Alex, Chloe, Isaiah, and Steven you will be the captain."
We all went over to one side of the gym and put on the flags. Steven, a Sandslash, came over and pulled us in for a huddle.
"We are going to need wide receivers, half-backs, full-backs, and a center."
"Wait, who's the quarterback?" Riley, a Celebi, asked.
"Me. So, who's doing what?"
"I can catch," I said. "And Chloe here can run."
"Good, we need speed. Anyone else?"
"I played on the school football team," Isaiah, a Dragonite said. "I was a half-back in the final game of the season."
"Great. Anyone else?"
"I've been practicing and I can catch better than I could before," Nick, a Simisage told Steven.
"I was in track for a few years," Riley said.
"Good, good. That gives Meghan the center." A whistle blew, telling us that we needed to head to the playing field. It was small, but big enough for long balls. We were facing another team headed by a Smeargle. Steven and Isaiah created the plays based upon the other team's defense. It was the easiest game that we played. When the ball came to me, I felt something snap inside of me. I became unstoppable. The rest of the team was surprised at my actions.
What the fuck? I thought to myself. Since when was I able to do that? Isaiah came over and patted my back.
"You really need to join the team," he told me.
"I don't do sports anymore." The whistle blew again, signaling the end of the game. We had won 196-3. We all ran to the locker room to get changed and go back to our dorms.
Chloe and I walked hand-in-hand back to our dorm room. Hanna and Taylor soon joined us. As we all walked, a Flareon came around the corner. She seemed to be running from something.
"I wonder what that's all about," Taylor said.
Chloe opened the door and we all walked in and sat down onto the couch.
"You guys want to play some Zombies?" Hanna asked us. We all answered by grabbing a controller and turning them on. Hanna put in Black Ops and started it up. Chloe was first player, so she set up the settings. She chose the map Kino Der Toten and began the game. When we reached round two, the phone rang. I got up and answered it.
"Hello?"
"Alex, it's Dad."
"Hey Dad, what's up?"
"I got the news. Congratulations. I hope you and Chloe are doing well."
"Hold on, what news?"
"Chloe's pregnancy, of course! Hanna told her mom and she told me. I can't wait to see you become a father."
"Yeah, I'm kinda nervous about it. Do Chloe's parents know about this?"
"Not that I know of. If you don't want me to tell them, I won't. Just choose a good approach when telling them. Something tells me they won't approve of it."
"You think?" I put my hand on my head. "Anyways, is there anything else you want to tell me?"
"Just be careful with the baby." He hung up. I slowly put the phone down and went back to the game.
"What did he want?" Taylor asked.
"He knows," I told her. "He knows about it Chloe."
The pregnancy is confirmed. Remember to review and PM me if you want me to add anything to the story. How will Chloe's parents take the news? Can Chloe and Alex become good parents? What else has Hanna been telling her mother? Find out next time. blazingalex, out!
