Chapter 6 – Preparation

Positive. Negative. Negative. Positive. Lioness took a deep breath and looked at the last test. Positive. Lioness stared at the test. No thoughts came into her head she just stared and stared and stared. A knock brought her crashing down to reality and she let out her breath that she didn’t know she was holding. She looked up at the door and hid the tests under her bed as she checked her face for any tears that might have escaped. “Who is it?” she asked to buy some time.

“Axel...can I come in...People are staring!” Axel whispered back

Lioness smiled as she remembered her last conversation with Axel.

Flashback

Alex and Lioness sat in their room in an awkward silence. It has been a week since they slept together and things have been very awkward lately.

“Soo...” Axel started hoping that in future their relationship won’t be this awkward...if they decided to have a relationship in the future.

Lioness got up and hesitantly sat next to Axel. She took his hand gently and whispered, “If it is ok...I think we should maybe give it a try...you know...our relationship”

She weakly smiled but inside her butterflies was getting out of control and was starting to give her goose bumps. Axel looked deep into her colour changing eyes and grinned, “I would love that.” Then he leaned in to give her a sweet but passionate kiss.

When they broke for air Lioness couldn’t feel any happier, by this time she had goose bumps on her goose bumps. When she looked over at Axel he was frowning which made Lioness lose her happy grin.

“What’s the matter?” Lioness asked resting her head on his shoulder.

“Well...I...I was thinking that maybe we should keep our relationship a secret since there is an upcoming war coming up and we wouldn’t want to cause any problems.” Axel replied refusing to look into her eyes.

Lioness couldn’t hide the hurt on her face but luckily Axel didn’t look at her as if he knew that she would be upset.

“You think we are going to cause problems?”

“No...I just think we should concentrate on the war...you know...I wouldn’t want to lose you again.”

Good save Axel Lioness thought as she knew that she couldn’t be upset for him not wanting to lose her.

“Ok...if that’s what you really want!”

Axel got up, with a warm feeling in his stomach as he looked back at Lioness.

“Let’s go...you coming? Axel questioned.

Lioness didn’t look up at him...she kept staring at the floor. “No...I think I will just stay, I have got a bad headache.”

“Ok...see you later!” Axel left leaving Lioness to tackle her headache and also dizziness which decided to join in the battle.

“God what’s wrong with me? And why am I talking to myself?” Lioness asked to no one in particular then groaned and lay on her bed until she fell asleep.

End of Flashback

“Come in Kyle!” Lioness joked.

Axel burst through the door, “KYLE? WHAT DO YOU MEAN KYLE?”

Lioness started giggling at Axel’s reaction and assured him that she was joking. After his face has gone back to its normal colour they both lay down on Lioness’ bed and stared at the ceiling.

Go on Lioness! This is your time to tell him...NOW! Before he probably falls asleep. It’s not that hard, just tell him that you are pregnant and he will understand! But he should be concentrating on the battle and I don’t want this to distract him. Ok...it’s decided. I will tell him after the battle!

“So are we going to train or what?” She asked jumping on the bed next to Axel.

“...”

“Axel?” Lioness looked over at him to see him asleep peacefully. She smiled and kissed him sweetly on the lips. She was so happy that everything turned for the good.

Soooooorry for the long wait...I am just soo lazy! I don’t even have a proper excuse!! ): Anyways I know this was short but it was more like a filler for what I have decided about Lioness’ pregnancy and the next chapter will be straight to the battle! There will only be like 2 chapters left of this story so I just wanted to say thanks for all the reviews in advance! (:
