Hey :P It's Wednesday so I'm back for my usual weekly update. I wrote this one almost a year ago and just found it today. Here it is, even though it's old, I hope you enjoy reading it :3
Disclaimer: I own only the story :P
I shuffled into where Ash and Misty were with a slight scowl on my face. My ears were filled with the sound of dismal wailing as I stuck my nose in the air, avoiding everyone in the room. Ugh, they were there. Now, I know you're wondering who "they" is. Well I'll tell you. "They" is Ash and Misty's newborn twins. I know you're thinking how can I be mad at two creatures that are just two months old, right? Well I can. Like everyone else, I was delighted when Misty fell pregnant once again and even more so once Ben and Katie were born. But now, two months later, the novelty of having new babies had worn off and I was gradually becoming more and more cranky from the sleepless nights. Plus, I had to watch them turn my two best friends into zombies. Just the mention of their names or a wail from the infants made me feel an emotion I hadn't felt in a very long time, if ever in my whole life. It was starting to bug me more than the babies were.
"Hi Pikachu." Misty smiled and greeted me as I curled up but soon frowned as I barely acknowledged her. "Well hello to you too.."
I felt guilty as her face fell and went back to cradling her newborn son but that couldn't be helped. I always felt irritable in the same room as those two little monsters. I closed my eyes and went to sleep and didn't hear a word of what Ash said next.
"Jeez, what is his problem? He's been like this for days…" the raven haired young man's eyes turned soft and concerned as he glanced over at me. "I do hope nothing's wrong…"
Misty sighed, tucking the twins in their bassinettes and touching her boyfriend's leg gently. She knew what was wrong, even if he and I didn't.
"I know what's wrong, leave it to me."
The next thing I knew, the red headed female was nudging me gently in an attempt to wake me up. I sighed irritably as all my peaceful dreams faded and annoying reality came back. I began to feel even more upset over my emotions. I loved Misty with all of my heart but recently I had this feeling in my gut that made me think otherwise. It wasn't just old age; I knew it was way more than that. And it was scaring me.
"Pikachu, you haven't gone near the twins in almost a week…" she began, reaching out to stroke my ears as concern filled her own aquamarine orbs. "What's wrong buddy…?"
I jerked my head away, sticking my nose in the air and insisted that nothing was wrong. To my horror, even Ash began joining in as well.
"We know something's wrong, buddy, you adored the twins and now that's suddenly changed… What happened…?"
I tried to come back with a snappy retort but I just couldn't. I could see it in his chocolate eyes that he was really worried and that made me soften a great deal. I confessed to them that I too didn't know what was wrong and how much it scared me. Climbing onto Misty's lap for comfort, I expected her to look worriedly at her boyfriend, but she didn't. Instead, a smirk over took both of their faces as they glanced from each other and back to me.
"You're jealous." She stated simply, the smirk on her face growing even more obvious.
Jealous…? My character was made up of many many words but jealous certain wasn't one of them. Stubborn was, however, so of course I denied this accusation.
"It's okay to feel this way, Pikachu… We were expecting it to happen actually…"
I sighed, glancing up at the female to hear more of what she had to say. I had never felt such an unpleasant and clenching emotion but I knew other people that did and she was one of them. Perhaps I was a little bit jealous after all.
"It's just because you care so much about us and don't like us paying attention to anybody else. As sweet as that is, Pikachu, that's wrong…" her face softened and turned in the direction of where the twins were sleeping. "They're just babies and they may not be able to talk but I know they wouldn't want to be the cause of any friction between us."
At this, a lump formed in my throat as I finally realised how unkind I was being. Yes, I was jealous of all the attention they were getting but did that mean I could ignore them and make the other people in the twins lives feel like crap? The answer was of course no. I closed my eyes so nobody could see the guilt in my eyes and nestled into Misty's stomach while Ash rubbed my back gently. They were my family and they had it hard enough with the twins without me acting like a stupid little baby pokemon.
"Besides…" Misty smirked down at me, pulling away from the hug. "You're still my baby, just like how I used to dress you up as one."
Upon hearing this, Ash blinked and confusion while Misty nudged me and I blushed beet red.
Oh no, no one had to hear about that.
The End.
There you go! Thanks so much for reading and hope you enjoyed :3 I have one written about when Misty dresses Pikachu up that I wrote a while ago, maybe I'll upload it sometime soon :P Thanks again and I will be back next week :3
