I'm a Walking Disaster With My Unwanted Virginity

It could have been that I was just the one who thought we were getting along.

That was definitely possible. Maybe I was just being brash about that. Marg had a hard time expressing her feelings. So, it was totally possible I just assumed things without even meaning to.

I held my head in my hands. I didn't know why but my feet slightly shook. 

"Then I don't think you have to worry about her leaving you. My daughter isn't like that, she won't just leave you without a word." Marg's mother looked at me with stern eyes. "So, I'd appreciate if you didn't think of her love as something so flimsy."

Meanwhile, father also called. "Well, she's not on the island."

"Then where?"

"About that." Mom took sighed slightly. "Last time we went to the doctors and we found out that she was pregnant, you know that much, right?"

"Yeah and-?" 

Mom looked at Marg's mother and they both nodded. 

"Did she ever mention that overusing her powers had a deadly side effect?"

"She fainted once when we'd traveled to and back from Germany and she told me something about-" My memory jogged. 

I did think something was wrong with her and that's why she and mom went to the doctors. But then they told me, it was only cause of the pregnancy and I believed it….

But!

Marg's words replayed in my mind. "I'll eventually meet the same fate as them…."

Maybe she hadn't said the exact same words but I knew for a fact, she wasn't lying at the time. 'How could I have forgotten?'

I even promised her that I'd come find her and- damn! How the hell had I forgotten all that?

"SO, you're saying it's possible she's not in this world?"

"There's no sure way of knowing that. We could ask Marcus to look her up, but that would take a while and-" Mom paused with a sigh.

I kept thinking.

Marg always found me, no matter how far away I was.

She'd always come find me. 

How-why couldn't I?

Where was she?

'Wait, she used to find me no matter what-'

I touched my ear.

It was still here.

The earring.

Our earring.

"We can use this!" I pulled it out, kind of hurt, but didn't matter. "Marg's probably wearing the other one."

"I always did wonder why you were wearing that." Elsa sighed. "But for once, good job."

Mom took the earring off of my hands. She gave a look at Marg's mother. "We'll let you know if we find anything. So, try to do some searching on your part too."

"I'll try." The call ended. 

Next- "Come back home, I'll give my brother a call and ask his brats to come over." She spoke to father.

Meanwhile, I sat down on the couch, looking at my Holo, desperately searching for a reply. 'What if she got stuck in the ninth dimension?'

It was impossible for me to access that place. If Marg wasn't in this world, then she had to be there. But if she was there then how the hell would we even attempt to go there? 

Wait, we still weren't quite positive that she wasn't on earth anymore.

I could feel my whole body let out a shiver. This was not the best time to have eaten so much chocolate. Let alone that lasagna.

"Think I might be sick-"

I ran to the bathroom.

***

I came back from the washroom about an hour later. I couldn't feel my stomach or my chest. 

I couldn't tell if this was from throwing up half a dozen times or maybe just my heart aching. 

The world kind of spun around. 

'Maybe I won't use radiation so readily next time.'

All this time I didn't really know the pain of my enemies who threw up in front of me again and again due to me using too much radiation on them. 

With a groan, I set out for the living. Just standing was a pain, so walking was kind of making me want to not walk. the cold floor seemed rather welcoming and I kind of wanted to lie down.

But I still walked. 

Two people were already there. 

"Well, that was fast," I said, barely being able to stand. 

I took a seat the very next moment. I really couldn't stand anymore. What the hell was wrong with my body?

"You sure have seen better days," John said. 

Next to John was my other cousin. Marcus. The guy had a rather large mouth- he was pretty much an expert at tech and how to find people so, I guess mom called both of them over. 

I just gave them a wave and they waved back.

"So, what's the progress?" 

"This ring is really amazing. The technology fascinates me!" Marcus said.

First of all, that was an earring and it was probably readily available too. Well, probably.

Anyway, "The progress?"

"So far, nothing. She's probably not on this planet anymore. Though it's hard to tell at this point. So far, all the major continents have shown no result. Which leaves out Antarctica."

"What are the chances of this failing and what if she is at Antarctica?"

I did have my doubts though. Even if Marg could teleport, going to Antarctica in a mere half a day, didn't seem plausible.

"I'm about 95% certain she's not on this planet anymore. And the other 5% is the Antarctica thing. Though I doubt, she'd be able to go there. Aunt told me she has a physical limit of 1500km, or something like that, meaning she shouldn't have gotten out of this quadrant of the world in the first place, given the time frame. Hence, I conclude, she's not on this planet anymore."

I couldn't really argue with his logic. And I knew for a fact Marg could have easily gone to the Ninth dimension but something went wrong and-

My head hurt. This was not the best time for this.

"DO we know anyone who can teleport?"

"No one I know of," Mom confessed.

"I do know one but he's dead," John said.

Well, that was a bummer. 

"I know one but he's in a top-secret facility in West Virginia and going there would basically be taking on the whole government. Also, he's a war criminal," father said. 

I clicked my tongue. None of this was working. Why did all the teleporters always have to be evil and villains and- "Why couldn't there be just some friendly teleport-"

Wait- there was one.

I knew one!

Lt. Dem- something!

"I'm gonna run to the dorms!" I stood up. I felt like fainting, but who cared. I grinned. "You guys keep on searching."

"You can't be serious! You can barely stand!" Elsa said. 

"I'll take him." John wrapped his arm over my neck. "Don't worry about it."

Though I didn't like this overly touchy-feely situation- "Thanks, man."

He grinned and the two of us headed for the door. 

Mom and father didn't say a thing and neither did Marcus. I could hear Elsa gasp but she didn't try to stop us. 

But at the last moment- "You're my son and I trust you but-" Father paused. "Be sure to not let go. Be sure to not give up. The moment you give up, it's over. Don't become like me…"

"I won't." I didn't turn back.

I just walked, using John as my support.

Hard to imagine just throwing up half a dozen times could do this much damage.
