Paul's PoV
It took us all night for us to get to work but the following morning, the pregnancy test came out positive. I later found out that Aoi is an Aura Guardian, which protects her from miscarriages, preventing them entirely.
"Paul, can you come here for a second? I need to tell you something, babe." Aoi called from the bedroom.
"Sure thing, darling, I'll be right there!" I called from the kitchen, looking around the room. I knew Aoi and I were having kids but what I didn't know is how many we were going to be having. We were already 4 months into Aoi's pregnancy but we didn't know that she was having so many kids at once.
"Babe, we're having sextuplets. I know this is a lot to take in but I saw this coming with my Aura, my Lucario showed me in my sleep last night. I'm gonna need your help to care for the sextuplets. I've already hired a nanny who will be assisting our care for the children when they're born." Aoi said, looking at me gently.
"I figured it would be sextuplets, something told me, I dunno, call it a gut feeling. And I know that you'll need my help, which is why I have to ask you something. Will you marry me, Aoi Midori Wilkerson?" I asked, kneeling to the ground and pulling out a black velvet box, which opened to reveal an opal engagement ring. Diamond engagement rings were too cliché. I knew Aoi was special and I knew she needed something equally special, a diamond engagement ring would've been far too cliché. I knew what I was going to propose to her with and I had the engagement ring custom made at a jewelry store in LaVerre City.
"Paul, yes. Yes, I'll marry you! I've been waiting so long for you to ask me that! We'll get married on October 3rd. 4 months from now. Are you going to invite your brother, Reggie and Ash and all his friends?" Aoi asked, smiling.
"Yes, it wouldn't be a wedding without them. Besides, every bachelor needs his best men for his bachelor party." I said, kissing Aoi's cheek gently.
"I love you, babe." Aoi said, smiling sweetly.
"I love you too, darling. Aoi Midori Thornton." I said, smiling at my fiancée. I was happy and I took out my iPhone 5 and opened FaceTime to FaceTime Reggie, Ash, Dawn, Brock, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Korrina, Red, May, Max, Norman, Caroline, Drew, Harley, Gary, Ritchie, Casey, Misty, Iris, Cilan and even Professor Oak.
They picked up shortly after the third ring.
"Hey, Paul, what's up?" Ash said, looking at me.
"Aoi and I are getting married on October 3rd and you're all invited! Can I count on you guys to be there?" I asked, looking at the crew widely.
"You bet! As your big brother, I can't miss this! I'm your big brother and legal guardian, I've got an obligation to come to the wedding! Maylene will be there too! Count on that!" Reggie said, his wife nodding beside him.
"You can count on my wife and I to be there too! Serena and I will be there too!" Ash chimed in.
"Yep, so will Drew and I! Count on that!" May added.
"Cilan and I will be there too! My husband and I wouldn't miss it for the world!" Iris piped up.
"My husband, Clemont and I wouldn't miss this! We've been waiting for this for a long time!" Korrina added.
"Casey and I wouldn't dream of missing this event! Hon, you're going to have a very prosperous marriage! I can tell!" Harley chimed in.
"Caroline and I wouldn't miss this! Professor Birch will definitely be there too!" Norman piped up.
"Brock and I will be there too! You know we wouldn't miss this for the world!" Misty added.
"Yeah, Max and I wouldn't miss this! As Ash's closest friends, we couldn't miss this! This is a big occasion!" Bonnie added, her boyfriend, Max nodding in agreement.
"My grandpa and I will be there too, along with my girlfriend, Sabrina! We wouldn't miss this for the world, even if Sabrina is a Gym Leader!" Gary chimed in.
"My girlfriend, Lilo is coming too, all the way from the Alola Region to attend this, she wouldn't miss this!" Ritchie added.
"Blue and I will be there too!" Red added. Blue nodded his head in agreement.
"Barry and I will be there too. We married two months ago and we'll definitely be there! It's a promise! And Barry would totally fine me if we didn't go!" Dawn said, as Barry nodded in agreement.
"As will we, Gold and I would never be able to forgive ourselves for missing such an important event!" Silver chimed in.
"Aw thanks, guys! You're the best!" I said, blowing everyone kisses.
"You're welcome, Paul, I'm glad we were able to come!" Dawn said, blowing kisses.
With all that said and done, I smiled knowing that all of my closest friends will be there at my wedding. Serena and her husband, Ash, Clemont and his wife, Korrina, Sabrina and her husband, Gary, Dawn and her husband, Barry, Ritchie and his girlfriend Lilo, Caroline and Norman, Steven and his wife, Cynthia, Silver and his husband, Gold, Falkner and his husband, Morty, Blue and his husband, Red, Bonnie and her boyfriend, Max, Misty and her husband Brock, Casey and her husband, Harley, May and her husband, Drew, Reggie and his wife, Maylene and the icing on the cake, Iris and her husband Cilan to top it all off for the guest list.
Life is good and I was loving life because I was going to be having kids and I was getting married and I was the happiest man in the world right now. I was really, really happy right now and nothing could bring me down.
