The Next Day, Hospital Visit

“I’m here to see Melody of Fuchsia City?”

The bored nurse looked at you and Blue as she slowly looked through the registry. “And may I ask who is visiting?”

“Amber of… Amber Oak of Pallet Town” You had almost forgotten to use your new last name. It was still something you were getting used to.

But Blue didn’t seem to mind your almost slip up as he wrapped a possessive arm around your waist. “And Blue Oak.”

The nurse barely glances at the two of you as she continues to flip through the registry. “Ah, yes, Melody… And you are on the list, well she is anyway.” The nurse glances at Blue for a moment. “I’m sorry, but they gave very strict instructions that only those on the list were to be allowed to visit.”

You suppose Melody had her reasons, but it was still awkward. Thankfully Blue didn’t seem to mind. “You go on ahead, I’ll be fine.”

That seemed a little too easy. “Are you sure?” What was he up to? Was he up to something?

Blue gives you a mischievous grin. “Oh it is not a problem at all. I’ll just go and stock up on supplies for Route 3.”

Ok, now you know Blue was up to something. “What kind of supplies?” You were pretty sure between the two of you, you had everything that you could possibly need already.

“Oh, wouldn’t you like to know.” Ok, now you are positive that Blue is up to something. But before you can even start to think of what he grabs onto you, spins you around and places a passionate and possessive kiss upon your lips. You immediately wrap your arms around your husband’s shoulders as any coherent thought leaves your mind. All too soon for your liking Blue ends the kiss, gives you a wink, and places you back on your feet. “You girls have fun now.”

As your husband turns around and walks away you can do little but stand there breathlessly as you lazily wave at him. “Ah hum.” You are brought back to reality by the nurse clearing her throat. “Melody is on the third floor, 313, Maternity Wing, you can’t miss it.”

“Oh yeah, yeah, thank you…” Yeah, that is what you were supposed to be doing. Visiting your friend before both of you left Pewter City. Not thinking about Blue’s tongue shoving its way into your mouth, a tongue that was only hours ago licking your pussy.

You shake your head to try and clear the horny thoughts from your head. You can fuck Blue later, you will fuck him later. In fact he would probably fuck you even if you tried to deny him. “Damn it girl, snap out of it.” Realizing that you had spoken aloud you glance over at the nurse who is doing her best to ignore you as she looks lazily at her computer screen. Turning away from the desk and heading to the stairs you try to focus on why you are here, and not about how easily Blue is able to make you all hot and bothered with little more than a kiss.

It didn’t take long to find Melody’s room. Stepping into it the first thing you see is the dark skinned Gyaru lying in the hospital bed. “Amber, you made it!” The second thing you see is a small baby suckling on one of her large breasts. “Ow! Not so hard!”

As you step into the room you see that while the room is full of flowers, balloons, and cards, she is alone in the room. “Are you by yourself?”

“Yeah, my better half is taking the kids out to get lunch and some fresh air. They can only sit around for so long before they start going stir crazy.” You find a chair in a corner and sit down, half listening to Melody speak as she nurses the new infant. “You want to hold her?”

You are so stunned that you don’t know how to respond. When you don’t say anything Melody simply shrugs and gets out of the bed. She walks the few steps towards you and then carefully places the baby girl into your arms. “Remember to support the head.”

You find yourself unable to speak as you look at the little creature in your arms. “Ok, I’m going to go take a shit. Don’t move.”

Wait, what? “You can’t leave me like this!?” You can’t be alone with a baby!

“Oh you will be fine. She just ate and is asleep.” You watch Melody as she shoves her large breast back into the hospital gown. “Just don’t make any sudden movements and you should be fine.”

“But, what if… What if she wakes up! What if she starts crying?!” You knew nothing about babies!

“Then let her cry.” Melody then steps into the bathroom and closes the door.

You then look at the sleeping form of the small thing in your arms. Her skin was a bright pink, as if her entire skin was blushing and she had a few bits of blond hair on top of her head. You couldn’t see her eyes since they were shut, the baby was sleeping. Which was fine with you.

“Ok, Amber. No need to panic.” It was just a baby, everyone was a baby at some point. Melody wouldn’t be long, she would be back in a few minutes. Just have to stay still and hope she doesn’t wake up. The little creature in your arms stirs and you freeze completely, not even breathing, hoping that she doesn’t wake up.

To your relief the little thing doesn’t wake up and after a few seconds you quietly let out a breath. Then you start to realize how ridiculous you are acting. It is just a baby, a human baby. It isn’t like it is a Pokémon or anything. Now that your initial panic has worn off you actually take a moment to look at the small helpless thing in your arms. “Ok, I guess you are kind of cute.”

“Well of course she is.” You look up and see Melody walking towards you. She carefully takes the baby back from you. “Thanks, it's kind of hard to take a shit when both your arms are occupied.” She then looks at you with a large amused grin. “You should have seen the look on your face though. I had to clench my jaw just to stop myself from laughing.” You look away in embarrassment, but that only causes Melody to start laughing. “Oh relax Amber, you don’t need to stress out over everything.”

“But…” A thousand questions and worries flashed through your mind.

“Does worrying and stressing out actually solve anything?” You didn’t have a response to that. “Of course it doesn’t! Besides.” She then gives you a large toothy grin. “You’ll have your own soon enough. Might as well get used to the idea.”

That was also true, but it didn’t put your mind at ease. If anything it freaked you out even more. Thankfully Melody changed the subject, or she just realized how much you were freaking out. But her next question still surprised you. “So, when are you leaving?”

“What? But I just got here?”

The Gyaru MILF rolls her eyes at you and laughs. “I meant leaving for Route 3 silly.”

“Oh, yeah… That…” You supposed you should leave soon, and Blue did say that he was going to get some supplies. “I guess, soon???” You and Blue had discussed leaving, but neither of you had picked a when.

“Ok, so you’re leaving today!” Before you can voice any protest she points a finger at you. “No excuses missy! I’m not going to watch you mop around Pewter and make excuses! You are going to march your booty towards the next gym.” To emphasize her point Melody starts poking you in the boob. “And you are going to get your next badge.” Hard. “And you are going to kick some ass!”

Rubbing where Melody poked you, you reply. “Ok, ok, can you lay off my tits.”

Grinning mischievously, Melody asks you. “Why?” The MILF then grabs onto and squeezes one of your breasts. “They starting to feel tender?”

You slap her hand away, which only causes her to laugh. Seriously, she was almost as bad as Blue. “I mean, a little…” You hadn’t told Blue this yet but. “I do think they’ve gotten a little bigger.”

“And now you know why I got you that sports bra!” Still grinning, Melody sits on the hospital bed. “Seriously though, you don’t want to procrastinate. You’re on the clock girl.” Your confusion must show on your face because Melody explains. “You don’t want to be like me and have your water break during a gym challenge.”

No, you certainly did NOT want that to happen. But that just raises more questions. How long COULD you travel for, where would you stop when you took a break, how long would the break be for, what would you do when you weren’t training? As your mind started racing with endless questions your breathing started to race and you felt your heart pounding in your chest.

You feel a hand on your shoulder. “Breath Amber.” Lifting your head you see Melody looking into your eyes with a look of concern. “Take a deep breath and breathe.” Concentrating your breathing you take a few deep breaths. “There, there, Amber. It’s going to be ok.” Once you have calmed down a bit you feel Melody tilt up your chin so that you are looking into her eyes. “It’s going to be ok. You got this.”

You take a few more deep breaths, trying to calm down your beating heart. “I’m just… I… Don’t know what I’m going to do…” Don’t cry Amber, don’t cry…

Before you can start crying though, you feel Melody wrap an arm around your shoulder and gives you a one armed huge. “There, there, it’s gonna be ok…” Melody’s efforts to stop you from crying simply make you cry more. “Look, you have months until it is even a real issue. And you’re not going to be the only prego female trainer running about. There are even private maternity only rooms at most Pokémon Centers.” That was something you hadn’t known. Sniffling, you manage to stop crying long enough to look up at Melody’s face. “Yeah, that’s right. If you ever need a break from Blue you can go talk to the other moms in the Maternity rooms. And when you start waddling like a Piplup you can come visit me in Fuschia City. Deal?”

“Yeah… sniff… Deal”

“Great!” Melody then slaps you on the back hard enough that you almost fall out of the chair. “Now how about you go track down your Baby-Daddy and make sure he isn’t getting into any trouble.”

“Yeah, and thanks. For everything.” You stand up from the chair and give Melody an enthusiastic hug.

“Oh, don’t you go getting all sappy on me Amber.” She pats you on the back before ending the huge. “You’ll make me feel like an old woman.”

“Ok, ok, I’ll stop.” You take a deep breath. “I seriously though, thank you.”

“Just remember to pass it on.” Your confusion must show on your face, because Melody gives a sigh and explains. “If you ever run into another young prego girl in over her head, you help her. Got it!” Melody emphasizes herself by poking you in your boob.

Or maybe she just wanted an excuse to touch your boob. “Ok, ok, I got it.”

“Good. Now get out of here before we both start crying.”

“Okay, okay…”

As you head for the door Melody calls out one last time. “And stay in touch! I want updates, and details!”

“Ok, ok, I’ll stay in touch.” You then close the door and start walking down the hallway.

As you head towards the elevator, you realize that Melody had a point. You did need to head off on Route 3, and soon. Ignoring how your pregnancy has put you in a time crunch, you shouldn’t waste too much more time in Pewter anyway. Now that you had visited Melody you really didn’t have any other reason to stay and not leave. Might as well get started sooner than later.

Author's Notes: Been a while since I updated this path and if I am being 100% honest, I don't have any real ideas for this path at the moment. That might change in the future, but it might not.

OR MAYBE someone else will be inspired to continue this story path?! This is CHYOA after all :D

But I wanted to reach some kind of narrative point that feels like it could be the end of book point and thus not leave this story branch just up in the air. I feel as if this is a good place to do just that.

Amber has her first Gym Badge, got to say good bye to Melody, has the beginnings of SOMETHING with Blue, and is about to take the first steps onto the next step of her journey.

Yeah, I feel like this is a good pause point; and a good place for branching paths. After all, just about ANYTHING could happen on Route 3 and Mount Moon.
