Not Another Girl (Hellsing x Reader)

Chapter 13

It was late in the afternoon and Walter was driving. George was sitting in the back playing with L-card, and Seras was sitting in the front seat beside Walter with a Cheshire grin on her face. Why? Because she was Mrs. Walter Dollneaz and they were taking George to see a linguist. George was two now, but she had still not spoken or uttered a word. She did make guttural sounds like BOOM when it was going to rain; but that wasn't really talking was it.

Walter sat patiently in the waiting room as he held George in his arms. Seras just couldn't hold in how pleased she was to be spending the afternoon with Walter. She fidgeted a little and straightened out her new dress. Instead of wearing her "police girl" uniform, today she was wearing a pretty sun dress of blue. She once again stole another glance at Walter and smiled.

"Something wrong, Miss Victoria?" he finally asked, in a fatherly manner.

"No, Walter." she blushed. "Nothing at all."

"Mr. and Mrs. Dollneaz." called the nurse. "The doctor will see you now."

Walter stood up and placed George in his right arm; then he held his left hand out to Seras.

"Are you coming dear?" he asked.

Seras tried to hide her smile. "Yes." she said, as she took his hand.

They sat together in the doctor's office as the doctor examined George.

"You look very pretty in that dress." complimented Walter, as he glanced at her.

Seras smiled so hard, her face could have broken from the strain. "You have excellent taste in women's clothes." said Seras, looking down and not directly meeting his gaze. "This dress is just my size and is very comfortable."

"I'm glad you like it." he smiled, warmly. "Maybe...someday...you'll have a chance to wear it again."

"How about tomorrow?" she asked, suddenly looking up at him.

"Tomorrow?" wondered Walter.

"Its penguin day at the zoo." said Seras. "I think George would love to see the penguins, don't you?

"Yes, that's a good idea." said Walter, thinking about fitting it into his schedule. "We'll take George to the zoo."

Their attention returned to George when the doctor called her name.

"George." called the doctor. George looked up at him. "That's good. She has voice recognitions skills." he said, beginning his verbal exam of George.

He picked up a block and held it in front of George.

"Block." he said. "Can you say block?"

George just looked at him and smiled.

"Come on." urged the Doctor. "Say block."

George just tilted her head and reached out to take the block from the doctor. The doctor let George have the block and he made notes in his notebook.

"She is saying block." whispered Seras, defensively. "Can't he hear her?"

Suddenly, Walter knew what the problem was. Integra hardly ever talked to George except to scold her. Seras and Alucard had telepathy; they always knew what George was thinking. As for himself, he hadn't really taught George anything at all. He spent most of his time cleaning up the messes that she made. So who was teaching George?

They watched the doctor give George three more mental and physical tests of intelligence. Seras smiled proudly as George passed all three. She just never SPOKE a word. Well, not words that humans could hear.
