Chapter 20: OOOOOOOOOOOH SHNIAP

A quick, eventful, and DEFINITELY EVENTFUL month later....

"WHAT?!" Katelyn yelled. Aphmau blushed a bit. "Yeah... I just found out this morning." Katelyn hugged Aphmau. "I can't imagine the amount of emotions you're going through right now." Katelyn stated. They hugged in silence for minutes. Aphmau cried quietly, but then a smile cracked. "Well, I guess I better get a better babysitter." Katelyn broke away from Aphmau. "Really?" she stammered. They both broke out laughing, but Aphmau broke the silence. "But... how am I going to break the news to Aaron? Based on past experiences, he doesn't really... never mind. I gotta get going." Aphmau noted as she walked outside the house.

Aphmau paused when she was walking, and started to think about how Aaron would react to her news. "I don't know if he... is... I don't know. The entire puppies thing and wrangling them, he obviously didn't like it. So what makes him think-" "What makes me think what?" Aaron interrupted. Aphmau jumped and stuttered. "A-A-AARON! I DIDN'T T-THINK YOU WOULD BE OUT HERE!" Aaron was quietly leaning against the outside of his house, listening to her not-so-quiet thoughts. "Of course I would be outside, it's my house. Plus... I kind of saw you wake up this morning." Aphmau stepped back. "I could have sworn I stopped walking, wait, you watched me wake up?" Aaron scratched his head nervously. "You actually have a large window, and you need curtains." Aphmau laughed. "I don't need curtains, Aaron. I just need you to stop watching me when I wake up." Aaron shrugged. "I was going out to buy more baby food for Emily and Emanuel." Aphmau froze up and held her arm. "Um, Aaron... can we go inside? We kind of... heh, have to talk... speaking of babies."

Aphmau walked into Aaron's house, and followed behind her. "THAT'S HOW YOU KNOW YOU MESSED UP!" Travis yelled from Aphmau's window. Katelyn quickly strangled him away, and Aaron laughed quietly. He sat down on the couch with Aphmau and they talked for ten minutes. They ended with hugging. "Please stay with me every step of the way, Aaron." Aphmau cried.

***********

"WHAT?!" Garroth, Dante, and Laurence screamed. "How did this happen?!" Laurence asked. Aphmau rolled her eyes. "How do you THINK this happened?" Garroth was mentally in shock and fainted. Dante was shaking and panicking. "B-B-BUT.... HOW?! WHAT ABOUT A-AARON? WHERE IS HE DURING ALL OF THIS?!" Aphmau held her arm and muttered, "He's at the store because, you know, mandatory things! ...heh." Dante and Laurence held Aphmau in silence. "Thanks guys, for not freaking out as much as I thought you would." Aphmau thanked.

Hour passed, and everyone gathered at Aphmau's house. "This better be good, considering I'm missing a new episode of My Little- um.... Man." Zane sighed. Vlyad placed his elbow on his shoulder. "Yes brother, because every man watches a movie about a man who pretends to be a baby for money." Aphmau stood at the balcony and took a deep breath. "Hey, everyone. Cadenza, Michi. I actually gathered you here today, because I have some news. This was specifically hard on me, and Aaron, but... I-" "SHE'S PREGNANT!" Kawaii~Chan screamed. "OMG REALLY?" Cadenza yelled. "Where are all the- THIS IS WHY I WANTED ALL THE PEOPLE I TOLD TO COME HERE! SO THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN!" Aphmau screeched. Cadenza and Kawaii~Chan jumped, and Zane and Vlyad stood there, gawking at Aphmau. Travis was holding out his phone, recording everything. "Somebody's gonna get KILLED! Ahem, Aaron..." Travis chattered. Aaron backed away from an angry Zane. "Woah woah woah- NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!"  Aaron shouted. "HEY, ZANE!" Aphmau yelled. She ran in front of Aaron and spread her arms. "NOT THE FACE NOT THE FACE!" she screamed. Aaron threw his hands in the air. "Aphmau!" Aphmau turned around. "It's the best feature you have!"

"Well it's gonna be the WORST when I'm done with him!" Zane shouted. Aphmau pushed him and he fell. "THERE WILL BE NO FIGHTING OF ANY SORT! AND EVEN IF YOU DID, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO WALK HOME!" Aphmau growled. "EVERYONE. CALM. DOWN. BACKYARD. NOW." Everyone crowded outside, and were still gushing and mumbling. Aphmau had invited almost everyone on Mystreet, including the one's she already told. She was lost in the crowd of swarming people, and she screamed, "Aaron! Where are you?" Out of nowhere, Aaron grabbed Aphmau's hand. "Follow me." They walked to the left side of the house and climbed a ladder to the roof. They sat down, and Aphmau smiled. "Do you remember us climbing my roof in high school?" Aaron chuckled. "At least your mom isn't chasing after me." In seconds, a massive scream came from the opposite side of the city. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAROOOOOOOOOOOOOOON! I'M GONNA KIIIIIIIIIILL YOOOOOOOOOOOU!" Aphmau's mom and Mrs. Ro'meave screeched. "How did... but...?" "Aaron, I think Zane called his mother and it kinda spread." Aphmau smiled. They sat up there for twenty minutes, and waited for the crowd to die down in silence.

"Are you ready?" Aaron asked. Aphmau nodded and they stood up. They stood at the edge and Aphmau started to shout two important sentences, and teared up. :

"I AM NOT PREGNANT. Only one of the puppies survived, and the others all... died."

Aaron held Aphmau as all the girls cried and the boys apologized. They all left Aphmau and Aaron alone on the roof, and the great moon, the king of nightfall, rose above them. 

"Hey, can we get down now?" Aphmau asked. They both climbed down and stood in the backyard. They buried the dead puppies and sat down. Aphmau leaned her head on Aaron's shoulder. "I... I am so sorry, Aphmau." Aaron whispered. Aphmau cried into his sweater and he held her. "We... *sniff*... we still have... Gold." Gold walked sadly outside to them and yawned. She crawled into Aphmau's lap, and she cried. Gold licked her cheek, and she smiled. "Hey Aaron... can we have puppies?"  Aaron moved away from Aphmau. "No." Aphmau laughed, and from across the street, she heard crying from the babies. "We better get going." Aphmau stated. They both walked to Aaron's house, and attended to the babies. "I just want to know... HOW IN THE WORLD... WHEN DID..." Aaron was cut off by Emanuel and Emily babbled as they held onto each other's shoulders with one hand and taking steps. "AAAAAAH!" Aphmau gushed. She pulled out her phone and recorded them walking and talking. Emanuel walked faster and away from Emily to Aaron. He held onto his leg and yelled, "DADA!" Aaron didn't freak out as much, but Aphmau was practically drooling over the babies' cuteness. "AARON. I WANT. KIDS. NOW." She stated. Aaron shook his head. "No no no no no no."

"Why not? Please?" Aphmau begged. Aaron started to explain his point. "We already have these... kids. Why have more? Plus I've seen the process in high school. NO." Aphmau whined. "But we're both cute, what about us as babies?" "You've seen my anger and temper in high school, and I was WORSE as a baby." Aphmau rolled her eyes. "But I was better as a baby. Therefore, the child is neutral." "Later Aphmau. Later." Aaron notified. "Maybe when we're married or... something." Aphmau pushed Aaron. "Okay. You win this battle, but there's more to come. Come to not-so-real Mama!" Emily  waddled over to Aphmau and she darted eyes at Aaron. "Do you not see how adorable these children are?" Aaron nodded. They all sat down in the living room and Aphmau turned on Corpse Bride. "Um.. Aphmau, are you sure that this isn't too creepy for Emily and Emanuel?" Aphmau responded, "Sounds like someone's scared..." "I am not scared! It's just that-" Aphmau clicked play and everyone was silenced for the entire movie.

Afterwards, everyone, including Aphmau, was hanging on to Aaron. Emanuel shook and Emily sucked her thumb. "M-maybe it w-wasn't a g-g-good idea..." Aphmau whispered. "C-can you p-p-please walk me home?" Aaron and Aphmau stepped outside, holding the children, and a ruffle came from the trees. "NO! I WANNA STAY!" Aphmau whined. Aaron rolled his eyes and started for his house, but Aphmau tapped his shoulder. He turned around and saw Aphmau reaching for him like a baby. "Come on." Aaron laughed. She jumped onto his back and he carried everyone back. As soon as he stepped foot into his house, everyone was asleep. He set the babies down in his bed and set Aphmau down on the couch. When he walked away, Aphmau mumbled, "Goodnight." Aaron walked back over and draped a blanket over her. "Thank you."
