If I owned pokemon, I would have probably ruined the entire game series. S

So, in response to a question from a dear reader, I'm not totally sure. The idea popped into my head and I just wrote. I posted it as a one shot but if others want me to continue, I gladly will. But otherwise, it's staying a one-shot.

Green shoved his hands into his pocket. The sunlight littered the floor, casting patterns through the leaves. He could hear Pokemon chattering around them. Multiple Weedle and Metapod would occasionally poke their heads out and watch them wander. Leaf trailed behind him. Her hands clasped behind her, Leaf glanced up at him repeatedly. Her hat was shoved down on her head, nearly covering her eyes. She bit her lower lip nervously.

Night was falling. They sky visible through the trees of Viridian Forest was dyed a deep red with numerous dark clouds drifting closer. She turned her attention to the pair of Pikachu sitting on a high branch. Their eyes were closed as they leaned against each other. She averted her gaze, not wanting to intrude on the private moment.

She quickened her pace, and ran into Green's back. She froze as he stiffened slightly. He looked back at her with a bored expression. She kept her face pressed against his back, not wanting to look up.

"Leaf…" He sighed, running his hand through his hair, "Why did you drag me out here?"

She looked up at him with a small smile on her face, remembering the reason they were out there. She grabbed his sleeve and dragged him down an abandoned trail. Branches and thorns scratched their faces as she dashed into the thickening brush. Her smile widened, as she watched the brush lessen.

There, in the clearing, was a small cabin. The sides were painted light blue with white shutters. Leaf released Green's sleeve and rushed over to the door. He stood where she left him. His bored expression was unchanging.

"You brought me out in this forest to look at an abandoned cabin? This is pointless Leaf. Why in the world did you think I'd be excited about this?" He grumbled.

She stopped smiling and froze, hand poised to open the door. Her lower lip trembled slightly as she stepped away. She pulled her hat farther down her face and took off in the opposite direction they came from.

Green cursed and ran after her, berating himself on his choice of words. He followed the bobbing figure of Leaf as she dodged between trees. Thankfully, he had always been faster than her and was quickly gaining on her. A few more steps and he reached out to grab her arm.

She dropped to the forest floor in terror as thunder shook the forest. Green skidded to a stop to avoid crashing into her. He steadied himself on a tree and looked back at her trembling form.

He sighed, once again, and crouched beside her. Her eyes were squeezed shut. He maneuvered her so that one arm was supporting her back while the other was holding her legs. Leaf wrapped her free arm around his neck and buried her face in his chest. He could feel her shaking in his arms. Another shock of thunder resounded through the trees. He ran back to the little cabin through the sudden downpour of rain and kicked the door in. It was fairly clean. Green suspected Leaf had been coming here and cleaning it, making him feel guilty. The frequency of thunder increased as rain battered against the roof. There was no furniture, so he settled with a corner without windows and propped himself against the wall. He wrapped his arms around her while she shook, and waited for the storm to pass.
