Do I have to agree on divorce?

No, who files first is not a factor. Spousal support, which used to be called alimony, is calculated based on an effort to maintain both parties' standard of living. Whether you're entitled or not can't be determined based upon the information you posted. If the pension was earned or accrued during the marriage, yes, you're entitled to a share. You should strongly consider consulting a local attorney and discussing your situation in detail!

I want a no fault divorce

How much time depends upon the county in which you file and how many cases are ahead of yours. Cost ranges from $360-435 in court fees, plus attorney fees. You can use one lawyer, but that lawyer can only represent one of you, not both.
