I do not own Pokemon

Forgotten Love

Unova, Undella Town – 2040

It was only a few weeks after I've battled and defeated Alder at the Pokemon League and already the citizen's of Unova recognise me and the Champion. But it's not like a massively famous movie star who gets a crap load of people with cameras taking photos of their every step.

Everyone allows me to get on with what I'm doing wherever I am. Sometimes I'm asked to take a photo with a few people, which is no problem, but I don't want too much attention and luckily nobody knows about what happened at the Pokemon League and N's castle. Nobody is to know about that. I left it to the government officials to take care of that part.

Other than that life seems to be all well. There is only one thing missing from my life now. I just had a talk with Bianca that Cheren has asked her out. I'm happy for him. Throughout our journey together Bianca and I have been trying to teach Cheren about what normal people do and how normal people talk. He's learnt it all very well. But I never thought that he go as far as asking her out.

I could only assume that he's grown to like her. I'll admit even he's taught her the technical side of Pokemon and battling. I only just figured out that Cheren is not right for me, he's bonded with Bianca even more than he has with me. And also he's a little bit too young for me.

Speaking of my journey I did meet a guy whose name was Natural Harmonia Gropius. He's preferred to be called N. He was such a charming person. He never lost his cool and talked sense all of the time, even though everyone else – including me – would disagree.

I can still remember the time we last met and talked. After a fight against Ghetsis, he went on about how we ruined his plans and how Pokemon Trainers are such devils. Alder couldn't take it so he knocked him out. Never knew the man could hit someone with such ease.

After that Cheren and Alder dragged the dead-like body out. That just left me and N. He stood with his cap covering his eyes. I can tell he was crying. I took pity on him. It wasn't his fault.

I wished I could say something that would cheer him up but I was scared I'd make things worse.

I walked to him and talked in a whisper. "N, I'm sorry about what he said about you. If you want you come with me and we'll get out of here. Try and forget about what happened,"

"I can't Hilda," he said. "People will see me. I would love to but…I won't any harm to befall onto to you…not you," he said this as he placed his hand on my face running his thumb across my cheeks back and forth.

"Don't do this to protect me N," I said with a little frustration and anger.

He turned and started to walk along the blue carpet to the end where there was a large hole on the wall which was made when his Zekrom crashed through.

I ran to him trying to catch up. I grabbed onto his wrist. "Please N…don't leave me," I said with a choke. Tears started to swell in my eyes. "We can go to Nimbasa City and-and ride the subway train or-or go on the Ferris wheel together," I begged him to stay while the tear continued to flow.

"I'm sorry Hilda…but I have to go,"

"Please N. Please," I couldn't control myself anymore. I needed him; he was the only person who understood my feelings and thoughts.

"You said you have a dream…that dream…make it come true! Make your wonderful dream a reality, and it will become your truth. If anyone can, it's you. Farewell…"

And then he kissed me. I did nothing but wrap my arms around his need and kiss back. It was the greatest feeling in my life. He is the first guy I feel in love with after years and now he has to go.

This is one the few memories that I tried to forget but knowing that the one you loved left you had to be the worst feeling ever.

Now I sit on the beach in Undella Town looking and the sun set behind the ocean. The light breeze surrounded the bare parts of my skin. It was a little cold but I wasn't freezing at all. I'll admit this is a good way to relax after 3 months of walking and adventuring. It was fun.

Rarely did my mother let me out of the Nuvema only to play outside with Cheren and Bianca.

But I still feel empty. There's this feeling that I have, this need of wanting someone in my life. Then the subway boy popped into my mind. Blair Hilbert. I've met him before. In fact we first met when I was 3 and he was 4.

I wasn't in love then but I really liked him. It was then when he turned 10 that things turned upside down in an instant. He lost his memory. I still haven't explained why to him yet though because we only just met when I entered Nimbasa for the first time. He was a totally different person…in regards to personality but physically he still looked the same only taller and more handsome than ever.

How he ended up in Nimbasa City I don't know. All I know is that a month after the incident his father died and him mother left for some unknown reason. I don't what happened after that. Somehow he ended up in Nimbasa and I met again after 5 years.

Cheren, Bianca and I decided to go into the Battle Subway and straight away Cheren suggested Bianca team up with him to see how she would perform as a partner. It was funny watching them converse.

Bianca wasn't confident at all, being scared that she can't impress a Pokemon nerd. They went on ahead after saying they'll be back in 15 minutes.

So I took this time to explore. Never have I seen anything like it. Then I found the subway labelled Single Train. So I thought 'might as well go for a run in one'. I jogged my way there but ran into my long lost friend on the way.

Never knew he'd be such a gentlemen and help me up after falling. Soon I gathered the confidence to ask him to be my partner in the Multi Train. He said 'yes' and I was finally having fun with an old friend. Throughout my journey across Unova I met him a few times but he never became a travelling companion like Cheren and Bianca.

I kinda feel like talking to him now. Maybe I should call him. I took out my Xtransceiver and went to find his number."Who are calling?" a male voiced asked form behind.I looked back finding that Blair was standing behind me. "Umm...no one," I sat next to me on the sand. "So what brings you here?" he asked casually.

"Just relaxing," I said. "What about you?"

"I come here on occasion to relax also, and to battle Cynthia sometimes,"

Cynthia? I don't who this person is but I can tell it's a girl's name. My heart sank and the thought of him having a girlfriend. Knowing that she's a Pokemon trainer too kills me.

Now I'm starting to feel a bit sick of life now. I've done what I dreamt of, and now what? Do I sit on ass and wait for others to ask for battle? Kinda reminds of the boy who stood on some random mountain for 3 years and never said a word.

I feel like doing that now. "Who's Cynthia?" I asked.

"You don't know Cynthia?"

I shook my head.

"She's the Champion of Sinnoh. One of the best out there, she's tough though, beats me every time,"

I laughed covering my mouth. "What does she use?"

"Anything, that's why she's tough, unlike Lance who uses Dragon,"

Lance? I don't who he is either. How does he know this stuff? Blair looked at me studying my puzzled face.

"You don't know who is, don't you?"

I shook my head again.

"Have you heard of the NEWS that they put television, you might wanna look into it,"

I punched him in the arm lightly. "I know what it is," I said but laughing at the same time.

Then we both fell silent a looked at the still setting sun. Silence isn't awkward. It's more soothing ad relaxing. As the sun was half covered Blair spoke. "It's nice isn't it?"

I knew what he was talking about. "Yeah, it's the first I've watched it since…ever,"

"I just like how it changes colour,"

"I like because it's the only time I can actually admire it and look at it, ever hour of the day it just wants to blind you,"

It was Blair's turn to laugh now. "Never thought you'd cut out to be a funny person," he said with a cocky smile.

"I never really was," The sun was nearly down meaning that after it has set I'd be out of here going wherever.

Blair found caught me in a depressed state. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah," I said with a loud sigh.

"I've heard that before,"

I looked up. "Really, where?"

"I've heard Elesa say a couple of times when we went out," That I haven't heard before and it was pretty weird too.

"You guys went out?"

"It wasn't a date or anything; we're just good friends. One late night I found her oddly enough on a bench crying.

I was shocked; I never knew Elesa was the sort of person who'd have troubles. "What was wrong?"

"She said she wanted more from life and all she's got was money, money and more money. Nothing was satisfying her anymore so I asked her out as a partner on the Subway Battles,"

"That's cute," I commented making Blair turn all red. Even in this dark orange light I could still see him blush. "So you guys just battled together and that's it?"

"Yeah, she says I'm her best friend,"

I nodded.

"If I was older she says she'd go out with me. A bit of a bummer," he said simply.

Okay know he's going a bit far.

"You wanna go with me on the Subway? And after we'll go to my apartment and have…whatever next, supper I suppose,"

He's asking me out? I think I've found my man. "Yeah, of course,"
