A/N: The wait is over a new chapter is here!
Enjoy!
"Well, this certainly is interesting." Baljeet said looking at the body scan results.
Felicity had sat up and was on the edge. "What is it?"
"Well, I don't know how to say this, but you're pregnant Felicity."
Felicity was silent for a while before looking up at Baljeet she didn't know quite yet what she thought of that. "Really?"
"I could not tell you if it's a boy or a girl yet, but it's definitely in there. Congratulations!" Baljeet said not noticing her silence.
Felicity looked up at him with a small almost forced smile. "Thanks but how am I going to tell Adam?"
"You could just tell him?" Baljeet asked.
"But it's just kind of awkward, how do you even big up something like that?" Felicity asked nervously.
"Why are you so nervous Adam will be thrilled." Isabella said.
Felicity turned to her sister-in-law. "Do you honestly think Adam and I are ready to be parents?"
"I think you would make great parents honestly. Adam has always wanted to be a father."
"I guess your right but how do you even bring the topic up. It's not like you could just blurt out 'I'm pregnant' out of nowh- oh my god." Felicity blurred off to bathroom to vomit.
"That would be the sickness." Baljeet said when she returned.
"Yeah, no duh." Felicity said wiping some excess vomit for her mouth.
"Well, you won't be able to hide this from Adam for long." Isabella said.
"I know, and I will tell him once the time is right ok?" Felicity said. "We should probably get back to the train though."
"Right, Baljeet not a word of this to anyone." Isabella warned.
"I promise I won't. This is Felicity and Adam's decision who they tell and when." Baljeet promised.
"Good boy, now Felicity ready?" She asked.
"Yeah." Felicity said hesitantly and Isabella teleported them both back to the train.
It turns out they were right on time because literally seconds after they appeared, the boys came back.
"And that Connor is why dogs are better than cats." Adam said as they walked in
Felicity folded her arms at that trying to make it look like nothing happened. She definitely wasn't ready for Connor to know at least. "That's not true, everyone knows cats are way better than dogs."
"No way, dogs are way better, they can be taught to save fully grown men cats can't do that." Adam said.
Disclaimer: We are both dog people and can't argue for Feliss on our own so we took in all from . (All rights go to kenicks… who lost X-D )
"But when it comes to pets, dogs require countless hours of time, attention, and money to be put into them. They are bigger, louder, and at can meddle with things at times when you aren't in the mood for meddling. Dogs need constant walking and exercise, even when it isn't convenient for one to do so. Dogs are more prone to fleas than cats, and spread them quicker across your house and inhabitants. Their boisterous barks and bloodcurdling howls keep many awake at night, contributing to the sleep-deprivation most of America has today."
"Now let's take a look at cats; between 12-19 hours of their day is spent asleep. That's a lot less hours to be taken away from your day catering to them. When they are awake, they do not make much noise, with the occasional mew and soothing purr. They lack the need to be taken out for walks, sparing the ascent into cold, freezing weather on those winter days. Their quieter vocal cords spare sleepless nights, with owners being able to be at perfect states of relaxation." Felicity argued.
"So, dogs will protect you if that is needed a cat will just hiss and run away. Plus your forgetting how long it takes to train a cat to use a litter box. Dog owners are generally healthier than cat owners because you have to walk and exercise dogs not just lay around with cats. Dogs rule." Adam said.
"It takes almost no time to train a cat to use a litter box. Unlike dogs who take years to stop them from just peeing and pooping on your carpets. Then once they are house broken they have to wake you up in the middle of the night to be let out where cats can just go over and use the litter box themselves." Felicity said. "Not to mention all the drool dogs get over everything. Have you ever seen a cat drool, Adam?"
"Yes, actually I have." Adam said.
Felicity was surprised by this. "When?"
"Your cat drooled all over me before I got my suit on."
"Oh, wow." Felicity had not known about that. "Well, Ruper isn't your average cat anymore than I'm your average girl or Lau's your average snake."
"Still, my point stands as valid."
"But cats are still so much softer and cuter." Felicity said in a childlike way. "That's why you see them all over the internet."
"Lets just agree to disagree. Fair?"
"Fair." Felicity said since she doesn't like 'debating' with Adam that much.
"Good. So, did anything happen while we were away?"
Felicity was unsure of whether or not to just tell him there and ended up copping out. "Not really anything exciting." Just then, the perfect honest aversion came up. "I have to go to the bathroom though." She said then left.
"Okay, well Isabella can we talk for a minute?" Adam asked as Felicity left for the bathroom.
"Sure." Isabella said a little surprised by the way Felicity ignored it but she knew it would be wrong for her to just tell him.
"We're being followed." Adam said once they were away from Connor.
"You sure?" Isabella asked immediately on high alert.
"Yeah, there was one man that followed Connor and I all the way to the other car and back."
"Shot, and with the baby," Isabella muttered not realizing Adam could hear her.
"With the what?" Adam asked.
Isabella looked up having looked down when she said that as what she just did sunk in. "Um… nothing." She lied horribly.
"Isa, what did you just say?"
Isabella sighed. "Don't tell Felicity I told you, she wants to tell you herself but… I said with the baby, while you guys were gone we teleporter to Baljeet's office to see if he could find out what wrong with her back and found out that she's pregnant."
Adams jaw practically hi the ground in shock. "She...she's pregnant your sure?" Adam asked.
Isabella nodded. "He ran a full body scan and there's definitely a baby in there. He estimated she's a few weeks possibly a month along."
Adam was about to say something but Felicity came back having not heard any of the conversation she did however notice the shocked look on Adam's face. "Um… whatcha guys talking about?"
"Nothing I just bumped my foot on the couch." Adam said
Felicity looked at the couch knowing that with super strength that could sometimes get messy then back at Adam, her hand subconsciously going to her belly. "Are you ok?"
"I'm fine it just hurt is all are you okay?" Adam asked.
"Yeah," Felicity answered hesitantly. "my back still really hurts though."
"Any idea why?" Adam asked walking her over to the couch.
Felicity was about just tell him but copped out again shaking her head. 'Why can't I just tell him?' She thought.
"Well, lets set you down. Connor remember I'm trusting you with my sister, don't make me regret it." Adam said as Felicity took a seat on the couch once they got to it.
Connor nodded still afraid of Adam. "I wont let you down."
"Good that's all I ask." Adam said before returning his attention to Felicity. "Is there anything you need?"
"Does the train have any milk?" Felicity asked trying not to be too suspicious but knowing that she should drink lots of milk for the baby.
"Well, yeah it does, but you usually don't like milk."
Felicity wanted to just tell him but instead ended up saying this, "yeah, but the calcium might help with my back." and mentally facepalming herself for it.
"Well, if you think so I'll send the order in." Adam said reaching for the comm.
"Thanks Adam." Felicity said and leaned her head back on the couch trying to figure out what's preventing her from telling him and how to over come it. Like Isabella said. They can't hide it from him for much longer.
"You really seem stressed are you alright?"
Felicity hesitated. "Yeah… I'm fine."
"If your sure." Adam said.
Felicity nodded. "I'm sure."
The train ride passed quickly in that few weeks Felicity kept trying to tell Adam, but always copped out. As the train stopped Adam had all their bags. "Ready to go?" Adam asked.
Felicity nodded trying to ignore the splitting headache the hormones were giving her. "Yeah, I'm ready."
"Are you sure? You've been really odd lately." Adam said.
"Odd how?" Felicity asked pretending not to have noticed anything odd.
"You asked for a peanut butter, pickles sandwich yesterday."
Felicity shrugged. "Well, I've never been exactly sane have I?" She said having no idea what else to say so she defaulted to her 'plea to insanity'.
"I suppose, but even for you that was weird and what about the taco with ketchup?"
"Why are you so worried about the stuff I eat?" She asked in a mood swing.
"I'm not your just acting odd is all." Adam said.
Felicity sighed. "Well, I'm fine. Ok?"
"You seem moody too." Adam said.
"I've always been moody." Felicity said simply since it's true.
"I mean more than usual." Adam said.
"That doesn't seem very possible." Felicity observed. "We should get to the hotel anyways."
"Right, come on this way." Adam said, Felicity wordlessly followed Adam to the hotel.
When they arrived she was again surprised by how lavish the lobby was. "Please tell my the hotel's part of Doofenshmertz inc. as well." Felicity whispered to Adam.
"Yes it is." Adam said.
Felicity let out a sigh of relief as they walked over to the front desk. "Isabella and Connors isn't though." He added.
"Aw, why did you have to tell me that?" She asked.
Two things came to Adam's mind, the guy that was following him and Connor on the train but also what Isabella told him. If she really is pregnant, it would be a bad idea to get her worried about something that might be nothing. "Just thought it was something you'd want to know."
Meanwhile at another equally lavish hotel Connor and Isabella were checking in "You guys are in the penthouse suite." The front desk lady said handing them the keys. "Thank you for choosing Ottopia."
"The penthouse suite, Adam really went all out huh?" Connor asked
Isabella shrugged as they headed for the elevators. "Yeah, but it's not really surprising. Besides, the hotel's probably a branch of Doofenshmertz inc. just like the train was."
"I don't think so." Connor said.
"Oh well, it still doesn't surprise me though." Isabella commented as they got in the elevator and she pushed the button for the penthouse.
"Still, I feel a bit on edge." Connor said.
"I'm not gonna lie to you. I am a little, too." She said thinking about the guy Adam mentioned, her eyes turning black.
"Why though? Everything should be fine." Connor said.
"Because, things are never truly 'fine' for us. It's like a never ending curse." Isabella answered staring blankly at the acceding numbers till they got to their floor and exited the elevator.
"Yeah it's like you...oh no." Said Connor looking a head.
"What?" Isabella asked and turned to look where he was looking. She gasped. In front of them with a plaque that said 'our founder name too long for plaque' was a portrait of Rodney.
Now knowing that staying there for any longer would be completely idiotic, Isabella went to take our her teleporter but remembered that she left it with Felicity. She pulled out her cell phone and dialed Adam.
"Bro, we have a problem." Isabella said.
On the other side, Adam having already gotten to their suite moved away from the bathroom where Felicity was and asked, "What kind of problem?"
"This hotel you've got us in, Rodney owns it and probably knows we're here."
Adam mentally facepalmed himself for not seeing that coming and glanced over at the bathroom door. "I'll find a way to get you guys out of there safely, ok? I promise."
"Can't you just come and get us now?" Isabella asked before remembering the baby. "Oh, right."
"Yeah, Feliss can't know about it or she'd insist on coming not only putting her life in danger but the baby's."
"Please, just hurry." Isabella said as she saw several men in black suits coming towards her and Connor.
"I'm on my way." Adam hung up and blurred off not really thinking of what exactly the plan is.
When he got there he saw Rodney worked fast as every other guests had been evacuated.
"Sorry, ladies and gentlemen we have a pest problem so we have to spray some highly toxic chemicals into the hotel. It will be a day or two before it is safe to enter without protective gear. The spraying starts in five minutes." The women in a managers uniform said.
"Excuse me Isabella Garcia-Shapiro should have checked in not long ago is she out here?" Adam asked.
"I'm sorry Ms. Garcia-Shapiro never checked in." The women said though Adam could see her malevolent smirk.
Even though he knew that was a big fat lie, he also knew that there was no way he could get anything from her, Adam disbursed into the crowd and tried to find another way inside since the front door was obviously out of the question.
'Okay Adam think front door is a no maybe if I go around I can climb in a window and make my way up, from there I just teleport us back to my hotel room and we're in the clear.' Adam thought circling around behind the building finding a window and crawling in. He found himself in the laundry room and immediately blurred up the stairs to the top floor. Even the security cameras can't catch a blur, not in time at least.
When he got there he found men in black suits and gas masks stand outside what could only be Isabella and Connors room.
'Alright, a good fight.' Adam thought.
From inside the room Isabella and Connor who were just getting ready to attack heard yells of pain and shock.
"I think Adams here." Connor said.
About a second later, the door was kicked down. "Someone call for a rescue?"
"We, did." Isabella said happily.
"Well, we have one problem." Adam said
"What is it?" Isabella asked on high alert.
"The teleporter signal is blocked, so we have to find another way out and we can't go down more than five floors they've started feeding the gas in." Adam said
Isabella took three gas masks off the unconscious guards. She tossed two to Adam and Connor obviously keeping the third one. "Now we can."
"Oh that works, too. I was going to say jump out the window using bed sheets as parachutes." Adam said.
"Tried that. Bullet-proof and apparently mutant-proof glass and locked." Isabella said putting on her gas mask.
"Oh, he is good. Alright, let's go." Adam said.
Since they all had their masks on now, Isabella grabbed Connor and the three of them blurred out the same way Adam came in to avoid making a scene.
"Well, that was fun." Adam said once they were far enough from the hotel.
Isabella and Connor took off their gas masks. "Very," Isabella said. "but now what? Connor and I have no where to stay."
"I can get you guys a place to stay at the hotel I'm at or if you want you could go home, but I can't imagine you would want that." Adam said
Isabella and Connor looked at each other for a second. "We'll take the room." Connor answered. "I believe you now, by the way."
"What do you mean?" Adam asked finally taking off his own gas mask.
"Back on the train, when we said that if I say 'it could be worse' it will get worse." Connor clarified.
"Oh yeah, good." The three of them headed back over to Adam and Felicity's hotel.
When they got there Adam got Isabella and Connor a room and dropped them off before making it to his own room in time to hear Felicity throwing up again.
"Feliss are you alright?"
Felicity stood up shakily wiping the vomit from her mouth and flushing the toilet. She walked over the the door and opened in. "Adam, I have something I have to tell you." She said finally working up the courage.
"What is it?" Adam asked walking over to her in concern. In all the confusion of saving Isabella and Connor he had totally forgotten about what he had accidentally been told on the train.
"You might wanna sit down for this." She told him walking over to the couch and taking as seat on it. Adam followed her and took the seat next to her. "Adam… I'm pregnant."
For a moment there was total silence in the room. Felicity was worried she had given Adam some sort of heart attack. Then he finally spoke.
"Felicity, I have one question." Adam asked.
"Ask away." Felicity said thinking of about about a hundred things the question could be.
"Are you hoping for a boy or a girl?" Adam asked with brood smile as he looked up.
Felicity looked down at her abdomen with a smile. "Well, of course I'll be happy and love it either way but I hope it's a boy. He'll be like you."
"I hoping for a girl. She'll be like you." Adam said
Felicity looked up at Adam. "Well, as long as you're happy and she's not like my mother I'll be happy."
"Oh believe me, she won't be. I won't let her." Adam said smiling.
"You're gonna make an excellent father." Felicity stated. "You know that right?"
"No, I'll be an annoying father." Adam said.
Felicity kissed him. "You seriously need to stop underrating yourself." She said when they separated.
"Maybe, but you're always there to tell me when I've gotten to bad, but you know what the real question here is?" Adam asked.
"What?" Felicity asked since only one question was knocked out. There's still 99 more.
"How am I going to face your dads wrath I mean when we get back you'll be...how far along are you now?" Adam asked.
Felicity turned red having been thinking the same thing. "We went to see Baljeet from the train he said few weeks, possibly a month."
So, into the few weeks we were on the train that was almost a month right there. How will he react when you come back almost three months pregnant?" Adam asked
"He's gonna be really mad and disappointed at the both of us." Felicity admitted looking away. "Do you think it would be better if we were to wait till then telling him in person or calling him before that?"
"He would want to hear it in person." Adam said.
"You sure?" Felicity asked uncertainly.
"Yes, I have never hide away from anything and I won't start now." Adam said
Felicity looked back at him with a smile. That was the Adam she fell in love with. "Neither have I but I meant or would he rather have gotten the news sooner."
"We could go tell him now?" Adam offered holding up the teleporter.
"You're right." Felicity mentally face-palmed herself for always forgetting about that.
He took her hand. "Ready?" He asked.
Felicity nodded. "Ready." Adam pushed the button and they vanished.
