The drink tasted really weird. Like, really weird. You know that feeling when you're on vacation on your private island and your servants forget to put sunscreen on your nails?  That's what drinking the drink felt like.

My vision kinda went blurry and I collapsed in the hallway. The last thing I saw was Hobbes grinning manically, standing over me. Uh dude? Personal space?

When I wake up again, there's a fuckton of people surrounding me. Apple is crying hysterically and holding me in her lap, and Chester looks on with concern as the paramedics fiddle with my oxygen mask. The fuck just happened?

"Adam, sweetheart, are you ok?" Asked a tearful Apple.

"Why wouldn't I be ok?"

A paramedic pushed Apple aside before she could reply. "Sir," said the paramedic. "This is going to feel really uncomfortable and I'm sorry but I have to do this. "

Before I could tell the peasant to get out of my face, he forces my jaw open and shoves this nasty ass liquid down my throat. Next thing I knew, I'd thrown up all over Chester. Sorry bro.

Apple screamed.

"Don't worry ma'am, we had to get it out of his system," said the paramedic.

"Adam, who did this to you? What's the last thing you remember?" Asked Chester.

I put on my thinking face. But no matter how hard I thought, I could not recall remembering anything that might be important.

From the corner of my eye, I saw Hobbes slink away.

"Hey Hobbes! I just wanted to thank you for that pirate drink."

"Pirate drink?" Asked a policeman.

"Yeah the bottle had a skull and crossbones on it."

Instantly, the cops began to chase after Hobbes, which was really weird.

My vision was still blurry, and I felt totally dizzy. Apple and Chester help me up, and before I could stop myself, I puked on Apple.

Suddenly, it dawned on me. It hit me like a truck. Like a ton of bricks. Like the falling asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs. The dizziness, the nausea, fainting in public, inability to drink liquids-it made perfect sense.

Suddenly, I realized I was pregnant.

And I had no idea who the mother is.
