A Miracle of Nature

It's been almost 7 months since Halo and Wallflower wound up stranded on a deserted island with nothing but the food and electricity from the boat and the natural grown foods the island had and during that time, Wallflower's belly grew with each passing day and she was now officially 6 and a half months pregant wirh Halo Knight's child, so now the two were gonna be proud parents one day. And because of this, Wallflower had to limit herself with her daily workload and Halo did most of the heavy lifting.

Especially with the cold season kicking in. Due to the cold weather, they had to set up another hut deep in the island forest and stay mostly indoors. Their normal clothes were mostly in tatters, but they luckily had some warm blankets on hand that they found from the boat.

And at the moment, Wallflower is currently resting up in the hut, staying nice and warm and having a nice, cooked meal Halo made for her. Halo, on the other hand, is currently out by the beach, over by the boat, turning off the generator to save up what little energy it has left. Over the months, Halo had carefully perserved the energy they had up until now and it won't be long before there's nothing left to start up the boat and send out a distress signal, so he has to make it count.

"There," Halo says. And during the months since he got stranded, his hair grew out and was now so messy and unkempt, long enough to be at shoulder blade length. His face also grew hair, making him look more and more manly, but his beard was highly itchy.

Of course, another thing that's changed is that thanks to all the heavy lifting he's been doing, he also gained a bit of muscle in his arms and legs. He even got himself a 6-pack from the sit-ups he did over the months, which got Wallflower so horny, they wound up doing anal a few times. Anyways, with his daily task done, Halo looks over at the horizon, seeing a few dark, angry clouds. From what he can tell, there's gonna be a hell of a storm brewing and he's gonna have to stay vigilant and not take any risks.

Halo then leaves the beach and heads back into the forest to meet up with his girlfriend. Once there, he checks inside the hut to see how Wallflower is doing. Surely enough, there she is, happily looking his way, holding an empty bowl, which meant she ate all of her food.

Now, just like Halo, Wallflower's hair also grew, nearly reaching the back of her knees. Still, she looks as beautiful as ever in his eyes. "Well, the generator's on its last legs. After that, it looks like we're gonna be stuck here without a means to power up the boat and send out the distress signal. Sorry, babe." he says, too ashamed to even look at his beloved girlfriend. "I feel like such a failure."

But Wallflower wouldn't have it. She can't stand to see him this way, so she gets up and walks over to him and hugs him close to her and presses her lips onto his.

"Listen," she begins after pulling from the kiss. "We're going to be okay. We've held out this long, baby, we can hold out for a little longer. And if we use up all the power, then we'll just have to improvise. I'm not sure how, but we'll get through all of this in no time. You said so yourself when we first got here."

"I... I guess I did." he confirms with a nod.

"Well now, it's my turn to be your pillar of strength, just as you were mine at the start. We're a team, Halo and that's never going to change. And I know our child knows it, too." Wallflower adds, rubbing her swollen belly lovingly like any loving mother would do. Halo is astonished and impressed at how much his girlfriend has grown and become so strong-willed over these past months. Halo feels like he doesn't truly deserve this amazing young woman, yet here he is, being cheered up by her.

"You're right, love. I guess I should know better than to give into despair so easily." Halo replies, hugging her back and then kissing her deeply. "By the way... what do you think our child's gonna be when he's born, is it gonna be a boy or a girl?"

"Not sure, but all I want is for our baby to be healthy and happy when it's born. But right now, it's getting cold, so we should head back inside and get warmed up." Wallflower then hooks her arm around Halo's and pulls him inside of the warm hut. There, they take this time to rest themselves up and relax.


It's now the next day and currently, it's early in the morning, but there are still plenty of clouds up in the sky and it's still fairly dark out. Halo wakes up a little bit when he hears what sounds like shouting in the distance and he lets out a groan.

"Five more minutes," he whines, trying to cover himself. But then, when he tries to wrap his arm around Wallflower, his hand only feels her bed where she should be. That's when he blinks his eyes awake and notices that she's no longer sleeping in her bed. He gasps and springs up to his feet. "Wallflower?" he asks, looking around, but can't see her anywhere. "Wallflower, where are you?" he calls out again. But he gets no answer and now he feels a tad bit worried.

Suddenly, he hears her voice in the distance. He listens again and finds out where her voice is coming from, giving him a small glimmer of hope. "The beach!"

He quickly runs out with his blanket wrapped around him and goes to check on her. When he arrives on the beach, he sees her looking in the distance, waving her arms up high in the air, shouting. "Heeeeeey, over here, we're stranded over here!" Curious, he takes a look over the horizon and spots what looks like a little dot in the air, only upon closer inspection... it's no ordinary dot in the sky. It's a helicopter!

He gasps and looks to see that the boat is currently on. Wallflower must've turned it on in order to relay the distress signal to this chopper. Halo wastes no time in joining his girlfriend.

"HEY!!! OVER HERE!!! WE'RE STUCK! HEEEEEEEELP!!!" he shouts, startling his girlfriend. It's only natural, since he didn't tell her that he was there until now. But she wasn't gonna scold him right now, because all that was on her mind was getting the chopper to notice them. "HELP!!! HELP!!! OVER HERE!!!"

"TAKE US BACK HOME!!!" Wallflower adds. They shout for what feels like hours when only 10 minutes have gone by and at this point, they're not sure if they're gonna be noticed.

Then, in those final moments, the boat shuts down and the generator powering it up now runs out of gas, using up what's left of its fuel. They can only hope that their distress signal had gotten to the pilot of the chopper and that they might be on their way to get them. Halo still keeps on shouting to get their attention while Wallflower stops, feeling winded and prays for the helicopter to come. She prays with all her might, wanting to get off this isolated paradise and go back home.

Soon... Halo stops midway and Wallflower looks to her boyfriend, wondering why. Then, as she looks to the horizon, she gasps as the chopper is seen flying in their direction. Their prayers have been answered and the nightmare will soon be over and done with.

In about 5 more minutes, the chopper lands on the beach and Halo and Wallflower are huddled together, smiling with bliss as their salvation has finally arrived. One of the pilots gets out of the chopper and rushes over to Halo and Wallflower to check on their conditions. He begins to ask a series of questions, just to see if they're alright, to which both of them respond to the best of their honest abilities. They even shared a brief summary on what happened to them that made them wind up in this place.

"You kids are very lucky to have survived out here for this long. I can tell you two have been through a lot, so let's get you two out of here and back to your homes," the pilot says.

"That would be wonderful. Thank you," Wallflower says. The pilot then brings them into the chopper and sits them both down and buckles them up before closing up the doors. After they're safe and secured, the pilot climbs back into the cockpit and phones headquarters on the radio.

"Rescue Force 01 to Headquarters, we've followed the distress signal and secured two stranded young adults, one man and one pregnant woman." the pilot says.

"10-4 Rescue Force 01, proceed back to the mainland to have them transported to a hospital, but watch out for the storm on your way back." Headquarters replies.

"Roger, Headquarters." the pilot replies before preparing for take-off. In mere moments, the helicopter is airborne and turns to one direction.

"Hang on tight, back there. You're heading home now," the co-pilot says. Halo and Wallflower nod and soon, the chopper flies off into the distance, being careful to avoid the storm clouds. Wallflower and Halo still can't believe their luck and are finally going home. They look at each other and hold hands. Their faces lean in close, then connect their lips in a warm, passionate smooch.

Wallflower then rests her head against Halo's shoulder, letting out a content sigh. Now that she can relax, her body remembers how early she woke up and she falls asleep real quick.

As she sleeps on his shoulder, Halo turns to the window of the helicopter. Although the island is no longer within his sights, he still can't get over all of the events that happened up until this point, from the simple cruise turned into an overseas nightmare and then washing up on shore. No signs of civilization anywhere on the island paradise, just the two of them. This whole fiasco was a nightmare at one point, but then again... Halo's glad it happened because of what he got out of this new experience.

A loving girlfriend, a newfound strength... and a future bundle of joy. Those happy thoughts flood his mind as he slowly drifts off to sleep.


Moments later, Halo wakes up to find himself staring up at a ceiling and hears the sound of beeping, which can only mean he's strapped to a heart monitor on a hospital bed. He looks over and his suspicions are confirmed, but he's fine with it. He then turns to his right and sees his parents, both with warm smiles. His mother has tears flowing out of her eyes and holding his hand. His dad looks like he wants to cry, but knowing him, he holds them back just so he can stay strong for his own son.

"Mom... Dad... I missed you guys so much," Halo says in a tired voice.

"We missed you too, sweetie!" his mother replies, leaning over to hug him. She cries onto his shoulder, never wanting to let him go. "I'm so sorry we didn't find you sooner! I was so worried you might've gotten hurt when that storm came in and swept you away, or worse! I don't know what I'd do if I lost you! But now, it feels so wonderful to hold you in my arms again. And now I can finally say... welcome home, sweetie!"

"We're so glad you made it back alright, son. I'm so proud you held out this long. When we get home, we're gonna celebrate your return with a big feast," his dad adds.

"Thanks, guys..." Halo responds, hugging his mother back. His dad also joins in on the family hug and Halo can feel his muffled chuckles, as if to hide his tears. Halo and his parents keep holding onto each other, never wanting to let go until... "By the way... if it isn't too much trouble with you guys, can we also invite Wallflower and her family over for the feast?"

"Oh," Halo's mother responds as she pulls away from the hug. "Funny you should mention her, because we've actually been talking with her and her parents." His mother replies.

"We also found out about how you two... got really close. And while I am shocked that you have gone and taken such a step, I'm also proud that you found someone to love and cherish. It practically took a lot of convincing from Wallflower and her mother to not have her father strangle you. And you know how overprotective most fathers can be about their daughters." His father adds.

"If he's mad at me, how about bringing him over here?" Halo suggests.

"You sure, son? He's a pretty hard case and he's highly overprotective of your girlfriend. I'll go and get him, but are you sure you'll be alright?" he asks.

"I survived nearly 7 months being stranded on an island, I should be fine," Halo insists.

It doesn't seem like he's gonna change his son's mind. So, he reluctantly leaves the room to go and get Wallflower's dad and prays to God that he won't kill Halo. Halo's mom stays by her son's side, wanting to make sure that when the man does arrive, she makes sure he doesn't hurt her. An overprotective daddy to his daughter can only be matched by a mama bear protecting her special boy.

A few minutes later, Halo's dad comes back with Wallflower's father. The man has faded, short green hair and a thick goatee on his face. He wears glasses, has silver colored skin and blue eyes. And just as Halo expected, he's not looking too happy.

"So, you're the boy who's responsible for my daughter's situation." he says in a stern voice. "You're lucky my little girl and my wife convinced me not to come after you, otherwise you wouldn't be hearing the end of it... especially since now she has to deal with a child on the way! For your sake, boy, I hope you're prepared to take full responsibility for this whole mess."

"Now you just wait one minute, mister--" Halo's mom intervenes.

"Mom, it's fine. I'll handle this." Halo assures. He then clears his throat. "Sir, I understand you're frustrated about all of this and I don't blame you. Wallflower's special. I've known it for quite some time ever since we were just classmates back at high school. But over time while we were standed on that island, I grew to love and appreciate Wallflower from a whole new perspective in life. She means the whole world to me just as much as she does to you and on top of that, I wanna be there for our child."

"Are you being honest with me?" he asks, squinting his eyes at him.

"100%, sir. This experience has changed mine and Wallflower's life. I know life's gonna be hard for us, but that's a road I'm willing to cross if it means Wallflower'll be happy. And our kid." Halo vows. There's a long, silent pause in the room for who knows how long. Halo does not break eye contact with the man who could potentially be his father-in-law to show he truly means it. And then... the man smiles and chuckles.

"I like you, kid. You've got guts and a lot of heart," Wallflower's dad says. Halo gets confused because now his own mother is chuckling with Wallflower's dad. He has a smirk on his face.

"I'll bet you're probably wondering why we're laughing, huh?" Halo's mom asks. "Sorry for deceiving you like that, son, but the truth is, Wallflower had already talked him down and even vouched for you on what a kind and caring man you've been to her. You could say he was moved to tears and for a good reason."

"Yes. My daughter, she was always a recluse when it came to her social life. But thanks to you, she seems much more happy than she was before. So, thank you for saving her. Oh, and before I forget, I also wanna say to you... welcome to the family." he says with gratitude.


Eventually, Halo and Wallflower were both discharged from the hospital after tests came back showing they were both healthy... and so was their baby. As time went by, Halo got himself a haircut and shaved his face as well and Wallflower also got her hair cut back to its original length. Their families got together for a big feast as planned and talked about what had happened while they were stranded.

The young couple learned that their faces were on the news for the duration of the first month and all of their friends and families were worried sick about their safe return. And as the months passed, some of their friends even thought that they were never gonna find them.

Luckily, now that they're home, their friends are in for a big surprise. Wallflower and Halo eventually met up with their friends and they were all relieved to see them still alive. Some tears were shedded that day and the young couple received congratulations from their friends for coming back home and for the pregnancy, though this news shocked them the most. But still, they supported Halo and Wallflower regardless.

As time went on Halo decided to start his own business and partner up with Wallflower. His girlfriend's mom owns a flower shop and Wallflower wanted to run the business when her mother retired.

Halo decided to contribute to the business by starting his own landscaping business as a way to expand the business and to stay close to his girlfriend. His parents, girlfriend and in-laws were very supportive of his decision, having faith that he'll go very far with this kind of business.


A few months later, Halo is once again in a hospital, but not as a patient. He's sitting outside of a hospital room, looking anxious because at this moment, Wallflower is going into labor.

He prays to God to ensure that his child and Wallflower will be okay after this. But then, the door opens and the nurse in charge approaches him. "Ms. Blush says she wants you with her." she says. Halo blinks as he turns to the nurse, wondering if she means it. The nurse nods and Halo rushes inside.

"Thanks, ma'am!" he says hastily. He approaches Wallflower, who's dripping in sweat and her belly is still swollen as she tries to deliver her baby. "I'm here, babe."

"I... I need you. I can't do this alone," she says, grabbing onto his hand. Halo nods and comforts his girlfriend before the nurse comes back and the three begin once again. Wallflower then starts pushing again and the nurse keeps urging her to keep pushing. While she's delivering, Wallflower grips Halo's hand tightly and even screams in pain in the process.

"You got this, babe. Breathe, just breathe in and out." Halo instructs before demonstrating how to, making his very own breathing exercises.

"Shut up! Shut up! SHUT UP!" she yells in frustration before glaring daggers at him. "WHY'D YOU HAVE TO CUM SO FUCKING MUCH INSIDE ME?! I'LL KILL YOU AFTER THIS!!!" Despite what she says and how scared he is, he still stays besides her and endures her tight grip and loud screaming. The laboring process goes on for what feels like hours until they finally hear a beautiful sound...

The sweet melodic sound... of a crying newborn baby. "We got it! We got it! Good job!" the nurse says, getting the baby and holding it in her hands. Upon further inspection... "Congratulations, you two, you're now proud parents... of a baby boy."

Wallflower and Halo look to the nurse with big smiles and happy tears. Moments later, after cutting the cord and cleaning the baby up, the nurse hands over the baby to Wallflower. She cradles her newborn in her arms, crying tears of joy at how sweet he looks. Halo is also happy to see his brand new son. His son has minty green skin like his mother and his hair is a combination of forest green and brown.

"Isn't he wonderful, Halo? He's just... perfect," she says softly before kissing his forehead.

"He sure is. Look how cute he is." Halo says, then gets up close to his son. "Hey." he calls softly, then clicks tongue while wiggling his finger at him and makes a funny face. Wallflower giggles at how funny her boyfriend is acting right now.

"He can't see you, silly. But good effort nonetheless," she praises lightly.

"Heh, I know. Anyways... what do you think we should call him?" Halo asks.

"Well... let's think..." she suggests.

The two try thinking up a few name ideas for their kid, but the majority of them don't seem to fit, until finally Halo thinks about the time the two of them were stranded on the island. "Hmm... strange, every time I look at him, I can't stop picturing all the times we spent on that tropical, stranded island paradise."

And then, it hit Wallflower. "Wait, that's it! Babe, you're a genius! We'll name our precious little boy Tropical Knight Paradise, or T.K Paradise for short," she replies.

"T.K... Yeah, that's perfect. But are you sure you wanna use my last name for his middle name, I mean he does have a lot of your features." Halo points out. Wallflower laughs it off.

"Oh, don't worry, Tropical has similar characteristics like my name, Wallflower. So in a way, there's plenty of me inside of our son," she assures.

"Well, if you insist. Alright. T.K Paradise it is." Halo submits. The two then embrace each other, along with their precious little boy and can't wait to embark on the new journey that awaits them.


Time goes by once more and we now turn our attention to a happy couple in a beautiful two-story house, where Wallflower is cooking up breakfast and Halo on the couch, buttoning up his son's shirt. T.K is now 5 years old and is currently about to start Kindergarten.

Wallflower looks over at her two favorite boys and smiles brightly at T.K. "Aww, look at you, T.K, you look so handsome in your little outfit. Mommy's so proud of you." she chimes. "Halo, can I trust you to take him to school since I have to help mother open up shop?" she asks. Halo nods. "Thanks, love."

So, after a quick breakfast and a bathroom break for the kid, Halo left with T.K to drop him off at school, all while Wallflower stood home to clean up before getting ready to head to work.

While she's cleaning, she passes up a family portrait of her and Halo on the day they got married, which was held over a year ago. And right beside the married couple, their little boy jumped in and photo-bombed them, making their memory all the more memorable. Wallflower giggles at the picture and looks out the window as a bright and shiny new day has come. She sighs and then turns her attention down to the beautiful ring she has on her left hand's 4th finger. A silver ring with a sapphire gem on it.

Yup, her life has been a rollercoaster of adventure ever since high school. But she wouldn't have it any other way as it's helped her discover a more confident side of her.

And she definitely has Halo Knight to thank for that.

The End
