Congratulations, You’re Pregnant → Granielle

Title: Congratulations, You’re Pregnant Characters: Grant Gustin and Danielle Panabaker @theflashgrant Setting: A doctor’s office on December 2nd Content Rating: PG Summary: What was supposed to be just a routine doctor’s visit for Danielle and Grant to check on why Danielle had gotten so sick lately turns out to be something completely more.

Grant had been worried about Danielle the more time went on and she seemed to be getting worse. He didn't know how or why she was this sick, especially since she usually never got sick. He knew she wasn't invincible and it was bound to happen, but this was looking serious and he didn't want to just wait it out any more. Danielle needed to see a doctor and he just hoped that it was nothing too intense and that they could give her something to help her since she was clearly miserable and he felt awful for her. Luckily she was able to get out of bed so that they could go to the nearest walk in clinic in Vancouver, knowing they'd get more attention as opposed to if the doctor had to come to them. He put Danielle's name on the list and eventually they were led to a room, Grant holding Danielle's hand as he sat down next to her in the chair by the table. "Hopefully we'll find out soon what's going on," he said to his wife, squeezing her hand gently.

Danielle had been miserable for the past few days, but enough was enough. Today was the day she'd figure out what was wrong with her. The aches and pains that she had had come and gone, but added with the nausea and the vomiting that had occurred just the day prior had her so worried. She needed to make sure everything was okay. Grant had taken care of everything for her and she was so blessed for it. Now they were in the exam room waiting on a doctor to get to her. Grant's hand squeezed hers and she gave him a soft smile in return. "I know", she whispered out to him. "It comes and it goes now, which is really weird. I want to make sure that there's really nothing going on", she continued on, confiding in him her worries until the knock on the door came along. A female doctor came into the room, which was great to have, and she gave the other woman soft smile. "Danielle, is it", the lady asked of her and Danielle nodded gently. "Aches, pains, and a bit of nausea and vomiting off and on", the doctor listed out her symptoms and she turned her head to her husband for support. "It's off and on", the brunette spoke out into the room, confirming the doctor. "We'll get to the bottom of it", the doctor spoke out with a soft smile and that eased Danielle's worry, squeezing Grant's hand with hers once again.

Grant listened as the doctor came in and started asking Danielle a few questions, hearing her explain what she had been feeling for the past few days. He tried doing everything he could to make her feel better or more comfortable but none of it helped for too long and that's why they were sitting there, hoping to figure out why Danielle was feeling this miserable. Smiling at the woman who said they would get to the bottom of it, he glanced at his wife and gave her a smile as he waited for the doctor to start giving Danielle some tests. She asked some more personal questions, confused as to why some of them were about her sex life but Grant just stayed quiet, hoping that they would have an answer soon.

Danielle answered every question that the doctor had given her and some more; but she didn't think anything of it. Most of it had been about her last menstrual cycle and what day it landed on. However, every doctor managed to ask such a thing. After those questions, they came in and drew some blood, allowed her to do a couple of bathroom tests as well as checking her vitals and whatever else they could just in case; and she'd hope they'd have a diagnosis soon. Once the nurses and doctor had left she and Grant alone, Danielle turned back to her husband and ran just a couple of fingers against his hair. "Are you nervous", she asked of him, wondering if he was doing okay with being in an exam room. From their past, it seemed as though he didn't like doctors very much at all. "They're very thorough here, aren't they", she mused to Grant now, but was interrupted with a few knocks on the door again. The doctor came in with an amused expression and tilted her head at the couple, which caused Danielle to tilt her head in confusion at her. "It's all good news", the doctor spoke out and Danielle let out a breath and leaned against Grant's frame. However, the next few words caused her eyes to widen. "Congratulations. You're pregnant." Pregnant. Pregnant without even trying and Danielle couldn't believe it. "Really", the brunette let out and squeezed her husband's hand in rejoice. It was interesting timing, when she wanted to have another baby and here they were, having another baby. "Baby, did you hear that", Danielle asked of Grant now. "I'll leave you two for a moment alone", she heard the doctor say before walking out of the room again, but Danielle didn't notice. All of her attention was focused on Grant now, but she had a feeling she'd be in this room for a while. "Grant, say something."

Grant shrugged when Danielle asked if he was nervous. "I just want you to be okay," he said, leaning in to kiss her cheek gently. When the doctor said she would be back after getting the results of Danielle's tests, Grant nodded and waited as patiently as he could, even if it felt like time wasn't even moving. When she came back saying it was good news, Grant furrowed his brows, wondering how this could be good news. Suddenly he heard the word pregnant and he felt like his heart had stopped. How could Danielle be pregnant? They had talked about a second child not being anything in the near future, wanting to wait until the timing was better and now all of a sudden Danielle was pregnant. He was in a complete daze now, barely hearing the words Danielle was saying to him knowing that he was going to be a dad again. "How?" He blurted out, blinking a few times. "How are you pregnant? You're on the pill, we're being safe..."

Danielle was taken aback by Grant's questions, but they were legitimate questions to have. They were safe, she was on the pill, but even then nothing was a guarantee. "I don't", she started out, not knowing what to say. "Sometimes people get pregnant while on the pill too. It's not always a guarantee", she continued to speak out, stopping her sentences abruptly. The brunette had no idea how to answer the questions that her husband had, mostly because she was so confused on the reaction that she had gotten out of him. Of course, it was to be expected. They were on different terms when it came to having a second child. Danielle felt as though they were ready; and when she had brought it up a couple of months earlier, Grant had said they weren't. All of this had come just after the Thanksgiving from Hell that they had with her parents and the support that she had shown for Grant during then now seemed moot. And now, seeing Grant's reaction as such had cause her own to die down. "Is that all you can say", Danielle started out now, her words whispering enough to mask the disappointment she had flowing through her now.

Grant was shocked to hear that Danielle had been on the pill but still got pregnant. She said sometimes that happened and Grant couldn't help but scoff. The fact that it was happening now when he was so set on them waiting to have another child just felt like some karma he didn't realize he deserved. Of course he wanted to have another baby with Danielle at some point, but that day wasn't now and it was happening whether he liked it or not. He was still speechless and when Danielle asked if that's all he had to say, Grant sighed. He knew she was happy about this, it was no secret that she wanted another baby as soon as possible and would have one tomorrow if Grant asked. Now she was having one without them even planning it and Grant didn't know what to think. "You know how I feel about this, Danielle. It's so soon. Ali is only one. We're still filming and we're so damn busy and...fuck," he breathed out, rubbing his face with his hands.

Danielle , upon seeing Grant so stressed out about this, had wondered if this was something that they were going to have to deal with long term. There was no doubt in her mind that the baby that they were growing now would be so loved and so perfectly cared for; but Grant's reaction made it seem otherwise. "Baby", she spoke out now, trying to get him to calm down. There must have been a million thoughts surrounding the both of them now and the brunette sought comfort in the fact that she had her husband by her side. If only she could make him see the same way. "Baby, stop. Look at me", she continued on to speak, taking both of his hands in hers to get his attention. It wasn't much, but it was all that she could do at this point. "I do know how you feel about this, but what if the universe is saying that we're ready for this? Ready for him or her to come into our lives? It's going to be hectic and it's going to be hard, but I know the team that we are and we can do this. We've done it before. We can do it again. Please just--". There was a knock on the door now, interrupting her of her speech, but she wasn't done yet. They were being ushered out of the room now, paperwork and prescriptions for extra vitamins that Danielle needed to take in her hands as multiple explanations were spoken to her. "Trust me", she said as they walked out of the clinic. "Just trust me."

Grant listened and looked up at Danielle as she spoke, knowing she had a point. Obviously this was happening for a reason but Grant still couldn't wrap his head around it. He wasn't ready for this and he was experiencing so many emotions, knowing that it was going to happen regardless. He still truly felt like it wasn't the right time but they were going to have to deal with it anyway. They were interrupted by the doctor and Grant cleared his throat, listening as she explained the protocol now that they knew Danielle was pregnant. She had been through one pregnancy already so he knew it wasn't anything she hadn't heard before but once the doctor was finished, they started making their way out of the clinic. "Yeah, I will," he said quietly, still trying to process this whole thing.

Vampires - @mysme69minutes Time: About 68 minutes (so close lmao). It’s 2159 words, and again a bit angsty, but I think I like what I came up with. Upon seeing the prompt I immediately decided that this would be what I was writing today, and this is my longest result so far, so it seems like that was a good decision B). Hope you like it~!

MC frowned. The room she was in was dark, no presence around her as far as she could see – yet she felt watched. She’d been kidnapped a few hours ago, taken from the apartment she’d been living in to help the members of the RFA. Of course, they’d been trying to protect her, as they knew something was going on considering the app the organisation used had been hacked several times, but since the address to the apartment was a secret..

Seven must have seen something on CCTV, though. The kidnapper had broken in through the window, so MC had immediately made for the door, being stopped in the hall by the threat of a bomb. Haha. She’d been living with a bomb, and a kidnapper had a trigger that could make it go off any second.

Obviously, she’d obeyed his orders as she’d wanted to live.

But that left her in this situation, in a dark room, bound to a chair. She didn��t quite know exactly how she’d gotten here, as the kidnapper had blindfolded her the minute they got in his vehicle, but she knew that this was a classic situation. She’d seen plenty of movies: she would probably be used as ransom.

That said, she didn’t expect a sudden breath on her neck, teeth grazing her flesh.

“What the –?”

“I want to bite you,” a voice answered, which she vaguely recognised to be her kidnapper’s. “But I’m not allowed to yet.” The pout on his lips was almost audible in his last words, and he proceeded to lick along the flesh of MC’s neck.

MC shivered, leaning away from the stranger – which only resulted in her chair tilting to the side.

The kidnapper stopped her from falling over.

“Don’t worry. You’ll be one of us, soon.”

“Is this the part where you tell me you’re a vampire?” MC snarled, being thoroughly freaked out, and thus the most implausible reason for his just licking her neck popping into her mind first, then forcing itself out of her mouth.

“Hmm,” the boy mused, licking his lips, though this was obscured by the darkness. “Is that really your first guess?”

“Your teeth were just on my neck, then you licked it. Either you’re about to sexually abuse me, or you’re a vampire,” MC answered the voice, doing her best to glare in its direction.

“Guess you’re smarter than I thought,” the boy chuckled.

There was a pause in their conversation as the door opened, briefly illuminating the room and blinding MC.

“You managed to get her here without any problems. I’m impressed,” the woman who’d entered the room spoke.

“Anything for you, Saviour,” the boy answered.

MC was confused, and honestly frightened, trying to figure out what was going on. But before she could speak, she felt a hand on her cheek, a soft hand, sliding down to her chin and holding it up.

“She’s pretty, isn’t she? She’ll make a nice addition.”

Then the hand left her face and the woman turned around, leaving the room. “You may convert her.”

“Thank you, Saviour,” the boy spoke again, the room once more illuminating as the woman left the room.

“You may do nothing of the sort,” MC said, hopefully more bravely than she felt, and being in no position to do anything to fight against conversion, whatever that may entail.

She felt a hand on her head, sliding itself through her hair and pulling gently so her neck was exposed.

“Really? What will you do to stop me?”

All MC could do was whimper, then gasp as she felt sharp teeth sink themselves into her flesh, and groan as she felt the blood being sucked from her body – until she passed out.

When she woke up, she was very confused. There was no way she could’ve survived a vampire literally draining the blood from there body. Actually, there was also no way vampires actually existed, but here she was, having survived being bitten by one. Although she wasn’t quite sure whether she’d survived per se, especially considering the conversation prior to her being bitten, the conversation regarding her conversion.

She was now resting on a bed, still in a dark room, but being able to see perfectly fine. That should’ve been enough proof that she’d become a vampire, but for all she knew she’d been there long enough for her eyes to get adjusted to the darkness. So she put two fingers on her wrist, feeling for the heartbeat she feared wouldn’t be there.

She didn’t find it.

With an exasperated sigh, MC stood up, stretching herself. Her body was cold all over, without blood running through it to keep it warm, and her muscles were hurting as a result. How long had she been asleep?

Then the door to the room opened, closing quickly, MC almost jumping back at the sudden light. Yikes.

“You’re awake,” a voice mused, handing her a glass of something to drink. “Drink this.”

“What is it?” MC said, distrustful, though she could now actually see the boy she was talking to.

“Blood, obviously. What else do you think vampires drink?”

“Wine would be better,” MC retorted, but she was extremely thirsty, so she accepted the ‘beverage’ and drank it.

“It’s not as nutritious as fresh blood, but it’ll do for now. How are you feeling?”

“You really think you have the right to ask me that after just killing me?”

“You’re not dead.”

“I’m undead.”

“That you are,” he chuckled. “But don’t worry. There are more benefits to it than disadvantages.”

“I don’t know about that. Living forever wasn’t exactly on my bucket list, as far as life without a heartbeat is called living.”

“You’ll be young and beautiful forever. You can see in the dark. You’ll get used to the light again, slowly, and with a bit of training you’ll be stronger than any human will ever be.”

“Everything and everyone around me will wither. I have friends who’ll die, family that’ll disappear, I’ll probably ‘live’ to see the next world war and hence the destruction of the world. I just wanted to live a normal life and be happy.” MC sat down on the bed she’d just gotten up from. She wasn’t quite sure whether she had her priorities straight, worrying about things like this rather than the fact that she’d have to kill in order to feed herself. But she was too accustomed to losing things, so she prioritised the loss of things regardless.

“You’ll have a new family in us.”

“Hurray,” she answered sarcastically. “Why did you even put me in the organisation in the first place? Why, if this was your plan all along? Who of them did you want to antagonise?”

“Me? That doesn’t really matter. The Saviour had a bone to pick with at least one of the members, and I just followed her orders.”

MC snorted.

“It’s Rika, isn’t it?”

Silence.

“I always had a vague feeling she wasn’t really dead, with how little information V had apparently shared regarding her suicide, and with how he let Yoosung hate him.”

“You really are smarter than I thought,” the boy answered. Then he offered her his hand, a smirk on his face.

“My name is Saeran.”

MC ignored his hand.

“I honestly could not care less. Can I leave?”

“No,” he said, raising an eyebrow. “And you don’t really want to, either. It’s a lot harder to live as a vampire on your own, especially without training and learning to control your appetite.”

“Yeah, I’ve read plenty of young-adult romance novels, thank you. Still don’t particularly want to stay here, though.”

Saeran now almost glared at her, but he once more offered MC his hand. “Let me show you around the place.”

“Why?”

“There’s something you probably want to see.”

“It’s bright outside.”

“You’ll only get used to that due to exposure, MC.”

“Fine,” she huffed, though she still ignored his hand in standing up. “But it better be good.”

“Oh, it will be,” Saeran chuckled, leading the way out of the room.

MC followed him, keeping her eyes shut for a few minutes in the light. It wasn’t bright, not really. The place seemed to be lit by torches mainly, as per prescription in a vampire’s lair, but it’d already been bright when she’d been locked up in a dark room as a human. Now it was undoable. She forced herself through it, opening her eyes slowly, squinting against the light as she followed after Saeran.

“How long have you been here?”

“A few years.”

“How long have you been dead?”

“Since I came here,” he answered, almost shrugging. “But I never cared much for life. Just vengeance.”

“Vengeance?” MC questioned, trying to distract herself from her upcoming headache.

“Someone abandoned me. I’ve vowed to make him the loneliest person in the world.”

MC kept quiet. She knew what it felt like to be abandoned, and what it felt like to want revenge. She couldn’t really tell him off without sounding like a hypocrite, although the vengeance Saeran was looking for seemed a bit.. excessive.

They walked through several corridors, MC soon forgetting which way they were going. But then they entered a room, another dark room. And in it were four people, tied onto chairs like she’d been previously. It took only moments for MC’s eyes to get used to the new darkness, and only seconds for her to realise what’s going on.

“.. No! They’re alive, aren’t they?”

“Of course they are. They’ll encounter the same fate as you.”

“But why? Why are you doing this?”

“Oh? Well, the Saviour wanted revenge on V. So we took you, and he came to bargain. Now he’ll be her servant, her pet, until he dies.”

“But what does the rest have to do with that!”

“They’re a gift, to me. With them gone, Saeyoung will really be the loneliest person in the world.”

Despite her panic, MC realised who Saeran was referring to. “What did Seven ever do to you, Saeran!? You can’t turn us all into vampires! What’ll we do with the rest of our prolonged lives? If any of us manages to escape, we’ll definitely get to him, too!”

“You won’t manage to escape,” Saeran answered, his voice dark, his face contorted into anger. “He’ll be abandoned, like he abandoned me. He left me, his own twin brother, alone with the witch that was our mother. I could do nothing. I’d always be bound, weak. But now I’m strong, and ready for revenge.”

“Don’t. Don’t do this,” MC pleaded. It was already too late for her, but she didn’t want the people who’d become her friends to suffer through the same fate. “They never did you any wrong. Why.. don’t you just get Seven and convert him instead? Force him to be with you forever? Won’t that be a much better solution?”

“No. He won’t feel the pain I’ve been through. He’ll be happy even, or at least pretend to be happy at seeing me.”

“Did turning into a vampire turn you into a villain, too?” MC almost shouted. “Where’s your compassion? I don’t know you, but I’ve been through abandonment. And I’ve wanted revenge. But the best revenge is to live happily ever after! And you’ll outlive him by far, you’ll be able to show him. Why would you murder the only friends he ever had?” No, that was phrased wrongly, that wasn’t going to cut it, only encourage him. “Why would you murder the only friends I ever had?”

Saeran paused, in speaking, in moving. He looked at MC almost curiously.

Eventually he spoke.

“But why wouldn’t you want them to be converted? They’ll live with you forever.”

“Because immortality is inhuman! I won’t be able to handle this. I’m going to be unhappy. They deserve to live their normal, human lives. Short, but relatively happy. They’ll have to miss me, but they’ll never find out what happened, so –“

MC heard a voice from one of the bound figures, speaking softly. “MC..?”

It was Jaehee, and MC frowned, looking at her. Then she turned back to Saeran.

“Don’t do this.”

Saeran seemed to hesitate, but then turned to Jaehee, the only one who’d already awoken. “It’s too late, MC.”

MC fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face.

“At least you’ll be together forever,” Saeran spoke, before his teeth sunk into Jaehee’s neck, draining the first of the four RFA members from her blood and life.

MC cried, silently. Nothing would be the same.

As she cried, she vowed to escape. She vowed to somehow get to Seven, and to at least explain the member’s disappearance. She would convert him, if he wanted. She wouldn’t be forcing anyone into it like Saeran, or Rika, but she, too, would get her revenge. Revenge on the destruction of her and her friends’ life, and revenge on the isolation of another.
