Another Chance at Life
Chapter 44: 44. House Hunters/The Big P Word
Previous Chapter Next ChapterA/N: this is the chapter that will give you a big hint at what is to come! I don’t want to keep you waiting, on with the endless writing and chapters!
Kyle and Dash were flying towards the first home that they were going to look at. This one was advertised as having 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, kitchen, living room, and a front and back porch. It was also located kind of close to the pond that we all went swimming in before, so that was an added bonus. It was one floor and ran for 1650 bits with all furniture inside included. I thought that was a steal in my eyes, but RD said that there had to be something wrong with it. Shut up and give me a good house! I want to have house parties and keep the neighbors up all night! Lol jk, that would be mean and I am full to the brim with niceness, which would go against my nature!
We made it to the house and it looked great on the outside. We looked around and I saw no problems with the siding and there were no holes near the foundation where drafts could come in, not to mention pests. We walked up to the front porch and found nothing wrong with that, other than needing a fresh coat of paint. We opened the door and walked inside. The living room greeted us and it looked like any normal living room, complete with a couch, a love seat, two chairs and a few small and medium sized tables. Everything looked all right; the only problem was the window frames on the inside needed a fresh coat of paint as well. I was pretty satisfied so far and so was Dash.
“I know there will be something wrong in this place, just wait and see” she said to me as we walked into the dining room.
“Ok, you want to have a little wager then? If this place has nothing wrong with it, we choose this house right now and be done with it, but if there is a major problem, I will let you choose the house we get and I will be happy with it. You got a deal?” I said to her as I held my hand out with a smug grin on my face.
“You’re on! I can’t wait to beat you at this too!” Rainbow Dash said as we shook on it.
The dining room was much like the living room. Basic furniture and more window frames that needed to be painted and the like. I was getting happier and happier with this place while RD was starting to think that there may be wasn’t anything wrong with this place. We walked into the kitchen and found that it looked as if it had been completely redone, it was amazing looking! There were granite counter-tops and a medium sized oak table right in the center of the room with 4 chairs surrounding it. I fucking love this place! It is everything that a house should be so far, and all that needs to be done right now is painting, and that wasn’t that difficult.
We decided to look upstairs and found the rooms to be recently redone as well. All that was needed was some caulk for the bathroom tiles on the shower. I was so happy and I think Rainbow was beat this time. There was one last place to check, the back porch.
We walked there and when we made it out there I was only mildly sad. The back porch was in less condition than the front, it needed a board for the platform and a fresh coat of paint for the whole thing.
I wanted to check one last thing real quick. I walked back inside and to the kitchen. I turned the handle on the sink and the fountain ran clear. I walked to the two baths and both of them did the same thing. This place must be connected to a well or something, it doesn’t have a basement, and that is sort of a plus and a con at the same time.
I get to rub it in now! Wait…I beat RD in a bet! Yes ho my gawd! “Hey RD, how do you like it?” I asked her with a smile. Trolling level go!
She looked at me and smiled “I can’t believe it! There is nothing wrong with this place other than needing a fresh coat of paint here and there along with one board for the back porch and caulk for the shower. I can’t believe I am saying this but you win” RD said with a smile.
“………I WON? Yes, this place is our new house hands down! It comes with all the furniture and all I need to do is paint the window frames and nail a board down and set some caulk. Thanks RD for having this little wager with me” Good guy Greg status incoming! “If you want we can still go look at the other houses, I was just doing this for fun” I said to her as I walked over and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.
“Nah, this place is pretty cool as it is. I like it too; we should stick with this one. Want to go talk to the owner?” Rainbow Dash asked me.
“Sure, then we can spend the rest of the day outside and tonight, who knows maybe we can test out the new bed” I said to her with a playful nudge and smile.
We got the house a lot easier than we thought. All we did was walk up to the door of this pony’s place of residence and asked him if we could buy it. He gladly accepted and handed over the keys and then was on his way, taking my 1650 bits with him. Bye Bye bits! *sniffles*
Rainbow Dash and I spent the rest of the day just hanging around. We have been pretty busy for the past few days and it felt good to lazy right now. Dash must have been whooped from the last few days, but I am not going to complain, they were fun.
When I thought that it would be best if we went inside for the night Dash decided to sleep in my new house with me so I would quote ‘not be so lonely in a big house’ anymore. I see what she did there! We walked up to my, well, our room and flopped down on the bed. This was going to take some getting used to, but it was still happening, so we just grin and bear it.
We got under the covers and snuggled in close to each other, Rainbow Dash felt warmer than normal for some reason, but then again it may just be my imagination. We both fell asleep a little while later, but it wouldn’t be a good night sleep like we always had before.
Kyle was awoken to the movements of his lover. She was moving like she was extremely uncomfortable. “Hey Dash, what’s wrong?” I said to her, concern seeping into my tone.
“I’m fine Kyle…really I am, I just have a pain in my stomach that’s all” Rainbow Dash said to me. She was sure of it now; she could feel a small bump starting to form in her belly. She was pregnant. She started to figure when she was so tired all day and this here just proves it. She didn’t know why this was happening so soon, the bump shouldn’t form for at least 2 and a half weeks from now. It was already there and it was only 3 days after they had made love.
“Rainbow Dash, I am here if there is anything bothering you, you know that. I am here for you if you need to tell me anything. I won’t get mad, you know that I won’t” I said to her with a strong kiss on her forehead. She is not giving me anything in info wise! How am I supposed to help with no info about what is happening! Ugh!
Rainbow Dash looked at him and began to well up. She was going to try to keep it a secret from him until the time was right, but now he knew something was up, Rainbow Dash just hoped that Kyle would take this good. “Kyle…I-I’m pregnant.”
Oh that’s good I thought it would be…..WAIT, DID SHE JUST SAY THAT SHE IS PREGNANT!? I sat there with a blank expression for a few moments going over what has just been said to me. She was just getting ready to start crying, but I stopped that notion with a big hug.
I rubbed her mane and back and she buried her face in my shoulder. “I am going to go see Twilight in the morning. I already feel a small bump and I am hoping she can help on the situation. I want you to go with me if you don’t mind” Rainbow Dash said to me, her face still buried in my shoulder.
I pulled her away from me and kissed her on the lips to hopefully tell her how I feel on the subject, it was mildly effective. When I pulled away from her I glowed with my sayian pride. “Rainbow Dash, how you would ever think that I could get mad at you is beyond me. This is wonderful, I am so happy right now that I feel like I have finally made something of my life. I have a mare that loves me, a home to call my own, and now a child on the way that we will raise to be the best he or she can be. I hope that you know that what I am saying is the truth” I said to the cyan pegasus, tears starting to drip down my cheeks. I have the best life ever now!
Rainbow Dash looked at me and smiled “I guess we will have a family sooner than we thought” Rainbow Dash said with a smile.
“And an amazing mother and father to take care of him or her” I said to her before I pulled her in close. This had to be the best feeling to ever have. I was so happy right now I could literally explode! We fell asleep shortly after that and did not wake up again until morning started to show through the windows.
A/N: I bet you are all thinking ‘What A Twist?’ ‘Briliiant!’ and ‘D’AWWWWW’. I am going to hopefully make this the best arc, seeing as it will have a huge take on all later events in the story. I hope you all liked it, I sure liked writing it! Next chapter will be up in a while!
