Girl Time With Melody

As you limp out of the office into the clinic lobby on your crutches you are immediately greeted by Melody. “So, how did it go?”

Trying to hide your, frustration, anxiety, panic, something? You are a whirlpool of emotions are right now, so you try to put on a cheerful face for you new friend. Because while you are panicking about the POSSIBILITY of being pregnant, she actually is. Freaking out about it in front of Melody seems kind inappropriate.

So, you put on a **** grin and tell her “Oh, they told me to stay off the leg the best I can.”

Not letting you avoid the subject Melody asks. “And what about the other thing?”

With a heavy sigh you reply, “They told me to come back in four days.”

“Ah, gotcha. Well, what are you doing right now?”

Thinking of all the stuff you have to buy “I actually have a lot of shopping to do…”

“Great, we'll make a day of it!” Grabbing onto you the older pregnant trainer practically drags you out of the lobby outside. “I don’t know about you, but I am STARVING!” She gives a chuckle as she places a hand on and rubs her swollen belly. “But I suppose that’s to be expected, I am eating for two after all.”

At the mention of food reminds you that you haven’t had a decent meal since… When was the last time you sat down to just relax and eat? Does Blue cooking breakfast in on the campfire count? Taking your silence as consent Melody continues talking “I haven’t been to Pewter City before; you know of any good places around here?”

Actually, you do. Or at least you used to. You haven’t been to Pewter City in what, 7, 8, 9 years? Come to think of it, you haven’t been to Pewter City since dad died. Has it really been that long? Whenever the two of you made the trip up here he would make sure to get ‘the best pizza in all of Kanto’. “I might, it has been a while, but I remember a Pizza Place not too far from the mall.”

At the mention of Pizza you see Melody’s eyes light up “I swear I think I could eat a whole, no two whole pizzas right now!” She licks her lips in a way that you can’t help but find somewhat erotic. “Come on then! We will get some lunch, then get you some new clothes. Because I don’t know WHERE you got those clothes, but you should not be running around in the elements dressed like that.”

A part of you wants to argue, but you ARE wearing Blue’s clothes after all, along with no bra, or underwear. Face turning red you tell her “I actually lost most of my clothes in Viridian Forest, the shirt is borrowed.”

“What about the shorts?” When you don’t reply Melody gives a tisk, tisk, “While I am all for wearing something eye catching when I am” She gives you a mischievous smile “in the mood, but for day to day you need to have something more practical. I mean look at these scratches!” She gestures to your arms, which along with your legs are covered in scratches and bruises accumulated while ‘trail blazing’. “So, first lunch. Then we will hit the mall and get you some clothes girl!”

“Yeah, that sounds nice.” You can’t really argue with that, since that is probably what you would have done anyway. Plus, it would be nice to have some company. Not being alone with your thoughts sounded good. Having someone else to talk to besides Blue sounded great. It was than then that you realized you had hadn’t had a real conversation with anyone besides Blue since you started your Pokemon Journey… That was worrisome.

“GREAT! Hold on one sec” Melody grabs one of her Pokeballs and releases the creature inside. “Amber, meet Victoria, or Vicky for short. Vicky, meet Amber.”

Vicky, was a Nidoqueen. But unlike any Nidoqueen you had ever seen before. Granted you had never seen one in person before, only in pictures and videos. But Vicky was NOT what you were expecting.

For one, Vicky, was lean, or at least lean for what you expected a Nidoqueen to look like, and she was taller than you expected. Again, that might have just been because you had never seen one in the flesh before. But Vicky towered over you and the slightly taller Melody, reminding you more of a gigantic body builder than a Pokemon. As the Pokemon looked you over, you could swear the Nidoqueen was sizing you up and glaring at you. Not hostile yet, but ready to spring into action at any moment.

Patting the Nidoqueen on the thigh, Melody gave a smile and spoke as if Vicky was a harmless little Nidoran. “Now Vicky, be nice.” Turning to you “She really is sweet; she just gets extra protective of me when I am like this.”

Wait, like this? Does she mean pregnant?! Come to think of it the first thing Melody said to you was ‘first time’. Does that mean…? “Melody, I hope this isn’t too personal of a question but… How many times have you… Been, you know...” Gods, why can’t you just SAY IT!? It is just a word!

“You mean Pregnant?” You nod in reply, and she giggles “Oh, this will be my third time.”

Stunned at her reply, the woman continues on as if all of this was completely normal. Wait, was this completely normal? Pallet Town wasn’t exactly a hot bed of Pokemon Trainers, and the only other Female Trainer you had ever spoken to in length was your Mom. Are you the weird one?

Unaware of your inner monolog Melody gives Vicky a simple command “Vicky, up.” And like that you are snapped out of your thoughts as the Nidoqueen picks up you and Melody, and places the two of you one her shoulders like children.

You give a short cry of shock and grab onto the Pokemon’s head, while Melody is giggling like a child at the fair. “Amber, which way?”

Oh, right. You were the one who knew where the supposed pizza was. Taking a moment to gather your bearings you point to where you think North is “The mall should be North of us.”

“Which is where we will find our Pizza! Vicky!” she grabs onto the Nidoqueen's head, looking at you she gives you a mischievous smile and you grip onto the beast even tighter “Take us, TO PIZZA!” The Nidoqueen than proceeds to RUN!

AREN'T NIDOQUEENS SUPPOSED TO BE SLOW?!

As you hold on for dear life you scream in unhidden terror, while Melody is crying out like a child on a roller coaster.

Just what kind of trouble did you just get yourself into!?
