At roughly 4:10 a.m., Julie was awake in bed. The realization that today was it— that it got closer by the minute brought her much anxiety. Not that it would change her mind in the slightest. She and Midnight would hopefully have fun during lunch with no unwanted surprises, but she shouldn't be doing this when she had a future planned for herself, especially when the janitor hung around the room to clean it.
Julie had already gotten away with it once, so why would she push her luck in a more stringent situation? This would never be worth her life. Yes, getting caught would basically be a death sentence, and Julie wouldn't know what she'd do with herself as a domino effect of life-altering events collapsed in quick succession before her eyes.
"You'd go to prison and have a permanent blemish on your record. Mom would be so disappointed. She'd be disgusted and never see you the same. You'd become estranged, and what would Alyssa think?... Can't you see it's really not worth it?"
For now, she pushed the thought away and got out of bed. Julie would wear her hair in her signature wavy style. However, she didn't know what would be appropriate to wear for today's occasion. There was no way she could dress too casually. She wanted to present herself nicely to please Midnight's eyes; it wasn't like she should be forced to dress a certain way anyhow, but Julie didn't want any eyes on her or to give anyone an additional reason to bully or talk about her this time.
She sifted through her closet and pulled out a tight pink tee with several mini espeon lining the stomach area in different playful positions, then grabbed her gray jacket to cover it before lunch. "Covering up. Never having a repeat of that day..." Hopefully, she wouldn't beat herself up over wearing a jacket today. Julie had to stop letting others get to her, but that wouldn't stop her from being courteous to them despite how much of a joke they may think she was.
She also put on skinny white jeans, and under those were panties of matching color.
She checked herself out in front of the mirror in her restroom and adjusted her clothing. She thought she looked decent today. This outfit wasn't overly showy and had color to it, minus the jacket. Julie brushed her teeth, washed her face, and whatnot, then snagged her phone and wallet afterward and pocketed them. She went downstairs and could smell breakfast cooking, entering the kitchen while yawning. She grinned at her mom holding a spatula while cooking over the stove. Her mother was up early again.
She turned upon feeling Julie's presence and smiled. "Morning, sweetie. Are you eating this time?"
Julie approached and looked at the sizzling egg and fluffy light brown pancakes in a pan. "I will. It looks delicious." She hadn't been eating properly recently, but it'd be a good idea to have a fulfilling breakfast today since she was skipping lunch again.
"Good. Can you fetch us plates and utensils, and how do you want your egg?" her mother asked while flipping the pancake.
Julie went to the cabinets and drawers, opening two and gathering dishes. "Uh." She glanced back. "Sunny side up, please." She'd probably make black coffee for her and her mom too. Julie would rather add milk, cream, and sugar, but she'd probably add way too much of it and was already going to use syrup anyway.
"Where's Lilly?" Julie set two ceramic serving plates on the counter and two more on the dining room table, then went back to get coffee mugs, forks, and knives. She unplugged and grabbed a medium-sized white pitcher off the counter before doing that and took it to the sink, turning the nozzle and filling it to the designated line with water.
Her mother chuckled. "Take a wild guess. I opened the front door for some air, and she darted out as usual."
Julie cut the water after another moment and went to plug it back in, which would heat the water to prepare coffee in minutes. "I guess she wants to be free. I just don't think it'll end well." Not when feral pokémon, cars, and other dangers roamed about the big city, but who was Julie to lock her inside? Lilly would be depressed. She didn't even know what Lilly did out there for so many hours.
"All we can do is be ready for anything, you know? We feed and water her, so we're doing our part. Egg?"
"That's true." Julie was relieved to see her on the porch every day. She went to the fridge and grabbed an egg, taking it to the stove and cracking it over the pan. Eggs from spearow and fearow were used in dishes and general cooking in Johtoan culture, although they were a bit on the salty side.
After they finished cooking, they sat at the cream tableclothed dining room table together with their breakfast and coffee.
A ticking clock was on the wall, a large painting of a busy coffee shop on the other, and a window with curtains her mother had parted to let the light in. A tall potted tree sat beside it, along with a fancy wooden stand with drawers and antique-designed mugs sitting on saucers atop it on the other side.
Julie tapped her egg's yolk to pop it and let it spill into her plate, then cut into her thick pancake with her knife and fork. She stabbed the separated piece and dipped it into the runny liquid, then put it in her mouth, chewing. "How's work been?"
She set her mug down. "It's been well, recently, but the new girl we hired is a bit ditzy."
Julie covered her mouth to giggle, then swallowed her food. "How so?" She picked up her coffee and blew it before sipping it, feeling the steam hit her face.
"She'll mix up a trainer's party with another after healing their pokémon, and she's done it twice already. She'll forget to tag the healing stations, and if it's a busy day, you're bound to get scatterbrained." She shook her head and cut her egg, eating at it. "That's a mistake you cannot afford to make when someone's pokémon are on the line. If someone gets a party that isn't theirs and decides not to return it, our center can get into massive legal trouble and possibly shut down if the victim takes us to court for it. The trainers got vexed with us in both instances too, and rightfully so. Ugh, it's just a mess."
"Maybe you should lay her off if she does it again. That puts you and the competent employees at risk." If her mother lost her job, Julie wasn't sure what life would become, and she certainly didn't want to see her mother unhappy when she was so passionate about her career. Julie grabbed the syrup bottle and poured more over her pancake before cutting it and taking a bigger bite.
"We've been in talks about it. To be fair, it's her first week, she did great during the interview, and she's just four years older than you, so I'll likely pull her into my office and tell her I'll have to do that if she manages to create a dumpster fire a third time. I try not to take people's jobs if I don't have to; she's a sweet young lady... but onto you, sweetie. How have your classes been, and has that punk bothered you at all since you've been back?"
Oh, she must mean Ricky. "No. He's got two more days of suspension, but if he does, I'll tell you immediately." Julie was willing to look past the first incident, but if he started harassing her further, she wouldn't tolerate it.
"Good. Please do." She briefly grinned. "And have you been feeling okay? In general."
Julie nodded. "I have."
"Remember that I'm always here."
"I know. Thanks, Mom. Forgot the classes question, though. I've been enjoying everything but math. I guess science has been a bit of a bore too, though. We're covering molecules and covalent bonds and stuff. I miss dexology, honestly."
"The better science? Everyone loves dexology. I did too. It was easy enough going through the national dex, but I'll say it's a useful class."
"I remember having to name every pokémon on the final exam, their native region, and stating a fact about each too; it was also a lot of fun. I'm def taking it in college. Not math, though. Not until I have to."
"Still not fond of math, huh?" Her mother chuckled. "I remember staying up late at night trying to help you understand it back in ninth and tenth."
"For hours... You were the only reason I passed back then." And she never lost patience even after Julie would almost cry out of frustration. "I've gotten better, though. I can solve on my own, but it's frickin' torture."
"Well, we could always go back a few grades and find out what you first got stuck on and didn't understand. It can be detrimental when students don't get the help they need and halfway or barely pass the class because math stacks on itself, so the further you go, the harder it'll get."
"Huh?..." She stared. No way Julie was going back on that forbidden subject. "I think I'd rather suck at it... I did get a B on my most recent test, though."
Her mother looked pleased. "Hm, really? Tell me about it."
They were through in under an hour at ten minutes from five; Julie was out of the house and on her way to school. It was always a good time talking and spending time with her mother. She should start making an effort to do it more. She wouldn't be around forever, and Julie wanted no regrets.
"If it goes well, today should be great." She had to consider why the second floor was a good spot. Every student was in the cafeteria during lunch, only a small number of teachers stayed in their classrooms during that period, and again, no one ever went into room 200.
The janitor was the only person to worry about, and Julie couldn't pinpoint whenever he entered or left that room unless she scouted and studied his patterns for a week, and she wasn't up to waiting that long.
As she entered the school, Julie tried to greet most students who bothered to look her way while walking to her locker, and she didn't get many in return but had to keep at it, although they'd already painted their image of her. It made her want to move on even more.
Maybe her reputation was shot, and she'd have to accept that, but it hurt to see that no one bothered trying to know her.
She entered her first class after grabbing her stuff and yawned. She was still tired and full from breakfast on top of it but knew she would wake up for the history lecture in no time.
"Morning," Max said after giving Julie a moment to settle.
Julie leaned back and eyed him. "Max, would you say I'm stuck-up?"
He scratched his head and shifted in his seat. "Well, I guess... I've overheard things about you... I mean, not that much." He shrugged and eyed her with an unamused expression. "It's mostly the popular groups talking like usual, but you've always been kind to me."
She looked at her desk. So people have been gossiping; Leia probably drove it with her influence. Julie wanted to ask what exactly they discussed but didn't actually want to know.
She felt more ashamed than ever to exist, but she hated that she let them get to her. What pierced her heart wasn't being called those ugly names Ricky had directed at her but being seen as a weird and pitiful loser in every shape and form.
Jane had overheard the question and tapped Julie's shoulder, grinning as Julie turned slightly. "Well, I personally wouldn't say stuck-up, and you should ignore the gossip. You've never been anything but sweet or irritated with me... Are you depressed by chance?"
"I mean... I don't know." Julie wasn't comfortable telling anyone about her condition. The only people who knew were her mother and Alyssa. Easier said than done to simply ignore everything perpetuating around her, though, especially when it was so constant and deeply rooted as if a part of some twisted school tradition. "Are you?" She glanced at Jane's cute wristband, which was blue today.
"Oh..." She followed Julie's eyes. "Not necessarily, Jules. I just had an argument with my sister before I left this morning. It wasn't the best start to the day. It hurt, but we'll make up." She grinned a little.
Julie nodded. "If there's anyone one shouldn't hold grudges toward, it should be their sibling. I hope you're okay, though."
"Because that's your closest friend... right. You can trust them with your life without worry, I'd hope. You're an only child, right?"
"I am." Julie wondered how different life would be with a brother or sister. She assumed it would be a fun and amazing bond to have. Alyssa was her closest reference, and she didn't know Bailey, who she assumed was a great girl too. Julie's life would likely be the same, but with two broken souls instead of one, and if they both attended Ecruteak, well...
"Wait, so you're both down? I feel bad for just being okay now," Max said, then grimaced.
"So funny, Max." Julie leaned a little and nudged him with her elbow.
But maybe Julie wouldn't be as lonely with a sibling. She had been lonely for a while, and her parents' troubled relationship while growing up that led ultimately to their divorce started affecting her during her first year at Ecruteak, so it produced an amazing first impression. It all reached a point where she just didn't want to be bothered anymore. She'd stopped caring about interacting with anyone all that much but didn't intend to come across as rude and vain. That paired with her time spent around Midnight couldn't be a good look, and she was being judged for all of it.
She was lucky as could be to have someone like Alyssa, the only person other than her mother who lifted her spirits and kept her sane. Julie honestly didn't know where or who she'd be without Alyssa carrying her last few years here.
They'd met through an English group project during their first week at Ecruteak since they were assigned as partners by the teacher. That project was the only one Alyssa put effort into. Afterward, she must have lost the motivation to try her best. Julie knew she was smart and capable, but that wasn't how most teachers perceived her.
Anyway, the day came when they had to present their research paper in front of the class a week later. They'd rehearsed and memorized the three-part essay during class and assigned who would say the intro, body, and conclusion. On top of Julie's stage fright and condition, the entire class was new, so it was twice as bad.
Alyssa barely knew Julie at the time, so Julie hadn't told her about it and had been embarrassed to. When they went up in front of almost twenty new faces, Julie instantly regretted agreeing to take the intro, but she tried, starting off with evident nervous energy and stammers that Alyssa saw and felt, which led to her mostly taking over after a few sentences in. They both had to participate, so Julie fought her fear and spoke most of paragraph two as best she could, resulting in a B as their final grade.
After that, Julie saw something in Alyssa that no one would ever. That was her best friend.
After her next two classes, it was lunchtime before Julie knew it. She let the halls clear by a good margin, putting everything in her locker and waiting at it for around ten minutes before walking toward the second hall. Julie could take the stairs by her locker, but it may seem more believable if she made it appear as if she were going to lunch.
She cleared the first and second halls quickly and turned down the third one, passing the restrooms. Julie stopped for a second and saw the stairs by the corridor's end against the right wall near the cafeteria's entrance.
Paranoia caused her to look behind her as she paced and made her way up to room 200, climbing two flights and peeking right down the vacant hall of more lockers and classrooms and another custodian closet at the end. She saw Midnight sitting by the door to the left east down the corridor and constantly looked at every door she passed by while on her way to him.
"Hurry," Julie whispered harshly upon closing in and sped up, pulling open the door. She let it close behind Midnight after he slipped in.
Julie hadn't been in this room before and already regretted coming inside. Her and Midnight's backs were completely against the wall, and she heard what sounded like a cart rolling by outside the room seconds later. Julie held her breath, frozen in place. If the janitor caught her now, she would, at worst, be reported to the office and maybe get questioned as to why she had Midnight; hopefully, he would just let her off with a warning. He was a nice guy whenever Julie saw him, always greeting students in the halls.
"All done in there. I'll lock up once I'm through with the next bit. Have to run down to the office and grab some cleaning supplies I left."
"Alright. We're considering bringing the room back to use soon. The students could use more casual elective classes."
Julie had no idea who the other guy was, but that meant the classroom would likely be free until lunch ended. At least she hoped.
Midnight had just arrived at the room after having eaten an early lunch in the faculty room, and Julie came in time to avoid any mishaps.
After a while, she no longer heard voices but had to ensure the coast was clear. With a grimace and held breath, Julie peeked out of the door's small window. "…I think we're good." She turned to look around the room.
Overall, it was a basic classroom, though no desks or chairs were on the floor since no one used it.
Julie looked at the bare walls and clean whiteboard, then crouched by Midnight and ran her hand down his back.
He looked up at her, a slight shiver running up his body from Julie's touch.
"We're going to do more this time." She checked the time on her phone and saw they had close to the usual forty minutes. Julie set her cell on the floor and took off her jacket, revealing the shirt she'd put on underneath.
What she had in mind worked. Midnight's eyes were glued to her figure. Julie giggled. "See something you like?" She reached her hand to his underside, now at his inner thighs.
Midnight spread his hind legs to give her more access while watching, his rings reacting.
She wasted no time, especially since they couldn't afford to, and rubbed his sheath, feeling over the outline of his stiff length concealed underneath. Julie also reached down and drew her fingers over his testes, fondling and caressing his sack. She could see his member slightly emerge in under a minute of this. "Do I like... stroke it back?"
Midnight nodded with a subtle grin.
Julie held and pulled the skin back with some struggle, having to tug it a few times, then sat and held his member with her hand, stroking it and grinning at his rings brightening. It felt somewhat moist, slimy, and almost sticky even before being inside something.
This brought a light exhalation out of Midnight, with him wincing and moving his hips.
"Can I… have you in my mouth first? I've wanted to try that," Julie asked, to which Midnight nodded again, though promptly. "O-Okay." She looked at the closed door again before lying on her back by the wall, although she lifted her head slightly. "I'm ready." Julie patted her chest and eyed him.
Midnight stood and ensured he was gentle with his movements while climbing onto her chest. He sat just above her breasts; his forepaws were on the floor by both sides of her head.
"So hard..." Julie eyed his testes and erection with lust, which was inches before her mouth. This was where the deeper anxiety from their first time returned. Getting caught like this was undeniable proof to anyone's eyes that she was actively fucking a pokémon.
She leaned up and traced her tongue along its underside, feeling it twitch while Midnight pushed his hips and watched her movement.
His stiff cock throbbed against her licking; he briefly closed his eyes. "Bh."
Julie placed her hand on his lower back and her other on his hind leg, licking his shaft a few more times. "You can thrust. Just be slow at first." She opened her mouth, picturing the door swinging open multiple times in her head, but the risk now turned her on in a way, and she never thought it would.
Midnight pulled his hips back so his member's tip was at Julie's mouth and ground his forepaws for added stability, then slowly pushed his hips to insert his length halfway inside, exhaling as her hot breath hit his shaft.
She closed her mouth around him and would, after a moment, move her head back and forth at a slow pace, sucking on his cock, which sucked her cheeks in whenever she pulled back. "Mhn." Julie could feel it slipping in and out against her lips. For additional pleasure, she lifted her tongue so it glided along the underside of his throbbing shaft as she moved, drawing it back and forth and pressing it to his member. Her mouth and tongue coated his erection with her saliva.
"U-Umbre..." Midnight shut his eye momentarily while his knot swelled to full size from the stimulation, and his rings glowed vibrantly. Her upper front teeth often slid against the topside of his shaft.
She pushed her hand into his lower back, encouraging him to move while she sucked him off, and he did, moving his hips in rhythm with Julie's movements with occasional bucks and humps. She felt his wet cock rub her supple lips and push against her tongue, often poking at her cheeks.
"Nhmm..." It brought her chills all over to have his dick stuffing her mouth and that she was driving him to a gradual and incredible climax with every motion. It aroused her to no end, making her close and shift her thighs together in a desperate fit to ease the rising heat trickling along her flushed labia and clit.
Midnight's soft moans were lovely to hear; Julie wanted to listen to his breath quicken and voice stutter, desperate to cum after being overloaded with physical sensation. She wanted Midnight to dominate her mouth. It belonged to him, and it may end with a sore throat, but Julie would be reminded for a day or two that he'd fucked it until making her swallow his thick cum. It was also a better option since she had no idea what she was doing.
He groaned against his breaths while pushing his shaft deeper into her sultry mouth and along her soft, warm tongue. He watched his hips and what he could see of his actions.
"Nmn, b-bre." His tip often rubbed the roof of her mouth while he humped, running over its indented grooves that made him shudder and momentarily stick out his tongue, pre seeping from his tip into her mouth.
"Nh..." Julie moaned and closed her eyes slightly. His stiff cock invading her mouth pleased her, and before he reached his climax, she made it another goal to take in all of his length so he could feel even better. Fortunately, he wasn't too big.
She leaned up more and pressed into his lower back harder while at it. His rod was almost fully inside her mouth, which started to feel uncomfortable upon nearing her throat.
"Mmbree," Midnight groaned again as almost half his upper length neared her throat. He spread his hind legs and thrust faster, which was audibly wet and only increased the risk. Midnight's breathing pattern was unsteady.
He gritted his teeth, his paws quivering while his head began to sway, looking ahead and tilting his head upward. "Umbre, u-umbreh..."
"Gih..." Julie gagged and stopped, allowing him to thrust as he pleased. She felt his tip prod her throat's entrance each time, constricting him more whenever she gagged on his cock. She didn't have long to adjust while he was in control, and she wouldn't stop him while he was having such a good time using her. "M-mff!" Julie was so horny from Midnight fucking her mouth.
She spread her legs and slid her hand from his leg down, slipping it under her pants and panties. "Mhnh..." She pressed her swollen, sensitive clit and pushed two fingers inside her wet pussy, fingering herself while Midnight humped desperately and rolling her eyes, her leg jerking.
Julie wanted him inside of her. She wasn't sure if having two rounds in a classroom that would be locked soon was a good idea, but she was willing to take the gamble after such a tease. It would feel so, so good, considering how incredible her fingers were making her feel right now.
Midnight's eyes rolled back as well, nearly stumbling over while his legs trembled and forepaw slid across the floor that he pulled back and grounded. He stood slightly, leaning in to thrust at more of a downward angle and forcing his shaft's upper half and knot deep into her mouth and throat.
He'd entered her throat so suddenly that Julie gagged harshly and stiffened.
Midnight's tail was just as stiff; he shut his eyes while gasping and murmuring often, slightly repositioning his paws whenever they started to lose grip on the tile. His rings were soaked in a shining yellow, close to peaking. "Nmbreh. Nhhbre..." His testes and hips tapped her face and chin while he shoved his length down her throat. Gentle, slimy slicks resounded with every pump.
While Midnight thrust to his heart's content, he placed a paw on the back of her head, lolling his tongue while panting.
She knew he was about to climax from his member throbbing as she deepthroated it to the pre he released that she worked to swallow. Julie winced her eyes from how strange and invasive it felt while trying her best to continue sucking his moving length and knot, aiding him with his thrusts by pressing into his back as he did so.
"Ghl, khk," she choked while he rammed his dick down her throat as deep as possible, feeling heavy off-and-on pressure as he slipped in and out. Julie couldn't know how it felt for him, but it had to feel intensely pleasing. He was trying to get as much pleasure out of it as he could.
"Ahk, k-gh..." She began breathing through her nose and relaxed her throat as best she could to curb her gagging and discomfort. That seemed like her best option, giving him more room to work without fighting his length. She felt his cock move and rub her fleshy walls while he pumped and resisted the urge to choke on it repeatedly. It just felt so unnatural and was.
She wasn't thinking of being caught in the slightest. She was focused solely on pleasing Midnight, sucking his cock and listening to him moan until he exploded in pleasure and spilled his load. He'd gotten louder, and him thrusting his wet cock into her mouth echoed throughout the room. Julie fingered herself faster, spreading her legs and pushing her fingers as deep as possible, rubbing her walls with her digits while her thighs occasionally twitched. It wasn't as good as his dick, but it felt sensational during his act.
Midnight's thrusts grew helpless and weak. His hind paw slipped off her chest but found footing on the floor, and he nearly lost his balance several times. "Umbh, rhh." He went faster, huffing through his mouth while humping Julie's face as her throat contracted around him.
"B-Breonn..." He humped as quickly as he could and breathed hard a couple of times before holding it, a short-lived exhale followed by a gruff grunt escaping his mouth while his rings gleamed.
He shot thick, hot cum down her throat in spurts that his member throbbed wildly against. He hilted his knot deep into Julie's mouth and throat and humped at the same pace against his climax while exhaling shakily. Midnight pulled her head, pressing his quivering paw into it while wincing tightly.
Julie widened her eyes from how much deeper he went by knotting her. She felt his thrusts wane as his orgasm began to fade, but he pressed his hips to her face and held his cock deep down her throat. She felt his sticky load pump down it while struggling to keep her head up against his force. "Hgk, g-hh..." She swallowed the bittersweet liquid with some more gagging that she couldn't help, pursing her lips and sucking gently on his knot.
Julie couldn't breathe but loved how his throbbing erection felt sitting so deep, vibrating against her narrow throat with every twitch. Something about the temporary lack of air as a result of an umbreon's cock in her throat was more than sexy.
Back to his senses, Midnight sat on her chest and pulled his length out of her mouth to allow her to breathe while struggling to catch his breath.
Their moment was ended abruptly by what Julie had feared the most. She heard the voices outside the door again. She widened her eyes while she and Midnight looked at it. "Oh no..." Julie's heart raced, but she didn't bother moving. The possible noisy outcome that would create could bring unwanted attention to them, and she'd be caught either way.
Whoever it was would open the door to see an umbreon sitting on a high school girl's chest, fully erect. What a sight that would be.
