After school, Mew met up with Mewtwo and flew a ways with him. Mewtwo asked boldly, "So, where's our first date gonna be?" Mew looked over at him and stammered, "W-what?! But we've only met yesterday, and besides, you haven't even met my parents yet!" Mewtwo looked down and said softly, "Right..." He'd forgotten about parents. How could he relate, though, seeing as he's never had any in the first place? Mew saw his sadness and felt ashamed. Mew apologized, "I'm sorry, just give me a day to tell them..." Mewtwo looked over at Mew incredulously and exclaimed, "Shit, I'm not forcing you, am I? You sound like I'm giving you a time limit or something." Mew nodded in agreement and added, "I know, but I just want to let them know as soon as possible. I'm a bit scared, though..." Mewtwo flew above Mew and gave him a small aerial embrace. "Don't be scared," he replied softly, "You can't help love."
Mew split apart from Mewtwo and headed towards his house, where he was already rehearsing an apology for his parents about him suddenly "going the other way". He landed in front of the front door and sighed. It's now or never, he thought as he turned the knob.
Mew's mom was a stay-at-home mother, but her husband didn't mind. In truth, she was needed more at home than at a job, so it worked out well for the both of them. She looked up from the dishes she was drying when Mew came in and instantly saw something was wrong with him. She could tell by how he moved. When he was sad or worried, he would float slightly and not want to touch the floor or anything around him. She said sweetly, "Mew, dear, is something wrong?" Mew looked up and smiled halfway and replied, "Uhh, no... B-but, umm, can I tell you something?" Mew's mom nodded and said, "Anything, sweetheart. Nothing can shock me." Mew winced inwardly and thought, Yeah, right. He nervously cleared his throat and began, "Umm, I-I'm in...l-love w-with someone..." Mew's mom smiled and replied, "That's GREAT, Moo!" Mew blushed and stammered on, "B-but, it-it's with... Mom, nothing can shock you?" Mew's mom nodded. "It's w-with...M-Mewtwo." He closed his eyes as he heard a dish shatter. He prepared for...a hug? Mew opened his eyes to feel his mother's warm embrace. She said happily, "That's wonderful, honey. It's fantastic that you can love someone who has hated our kind for centuries, and now that he loves you... You're healing him, Mew. I'm so glad." Tears trailed down her cheeks as she looked into Mew's eyes and smiled gratefully. Mew, seeing her cry, in turn started to form tears in his own eyes as he looked back at her. "You're not mad that he's a guy?" Mew's mom shook her head. "I don't care what gender he is, just as long as you're happy. You know, before I met your dad, I was bisexual and dated both genders, and I've never seen anything wrong with it. You have a right to try different things, it's what helps you grow." Mew laughed in relief and said, "You, bi? I honestly can't see it!" The two laughed and Mew felt confident again. He went up to his room after helping his mom out, then came to a sudden realization and groaned. He was going to have to go through the same ordeal with his dad, too.
Meanwhile, in his room, Mewtwo lay on his bed with his eyes closed. He smiled. He knew all would go well, and watching through Mew's mind proved it. He was a bit tense for a moment, not knowing how she would react, but was relieved at how she handled it. Mewtwo smiled wider and decided to surprise Mew in his own special way.
That night, Mew stood in the shower, washing himself down thoroughly, when he noticed a presence inside his mind. Not funny, Manaphy. he thought. Mew heard the reply, Not quite. Mew gasped and covered his privates out of habit. He stammered angrily, Y-you dirty pervert! You shouldn't do that stuff when we just met, not even when we know each other well! Mewtwo projected a smile and lazily responded, Can I help that I think your body is beautiful? I love everything about you, Mew, and I want to see you all. Besides, if you want, you can see all of me... Mew blushed furiously as Mewtwo projected an image of him naked, and promptly shoved it out of his mind. He then thought, Go to bed, you pervert. I'll see you tomorrow. He paused. ...I love you. Mewtwo sent him another image of a shimmering heart, and Mew didn't block it that time.
