Red, Yellow, Gold and Kris: The love they have for each other
Hello everyone, I'm Red, 20 years old and I'm also the Kanto Pokémon Champion. Even though I'm considered one of the strongest trainers in Kanto, there are two reasons I don't really like being Champion all that much, one of them is because of the constant challengers fawning over me and the other is because it keeps me away from Yellow, otherwise known by her title, the Healer whereas I'm known as the Battler.
Yellow and I spend quite a lot of time together and while I don't talk much, just enjoying her company brings me joy. We usually hang out in the Viridian Forest where Yellow draws various Pokémon that are around the area while I just relax in the cool shade. Today was one of the days that Yellow and I would hang out, even though we would spend time with each other every day, it would usually involve us playing some games with Gold or Crystal, or Blue and Green and occasionally, even Silver and Lyra but usually the two pairs get into arguments with each other while Silver and Lyra just stay quiet the entire time and barely participate which isn't something Yellow or myself cares for. I even remembering asking Gold and Crystal why they moved to Kanto and they both said it was because they wanted to be closer to us, which was something that I appreciated since we wouldn't have to ride the train to Johto.
I called Yellow's Pokégear as I headed out of my house with Pika on my shoulder, after a few rings, I heard her cheerful yet exhausted voice on the other end.
"Hi Red! It's rather early, don't you think? How are you?" Yellow said as I checked my Pokégear, seeing that the time was 1:35 P.M., surprised that Yellow sounded so tired despite it being so late.
"Hello Yellow! Good afternoon, it's actually about a half hour past 1 o' clock! You sound really exhausted, do you want to reschedule for tomorrow so you can get some sleep?" I asked as Yellow giggled.
"No no, I'm okay! I was just talking to Blue for quite a bit last night, she's really chatty!" Yellow said.
"Talking to Blue? Sounds like you two had fun!" I said.
"We certainly did, we talked about all sorts of things! I'm on my way to Viridian Forest right now! I'll see you there, bye!" Yellow said.
"Okay Yellow, I won't keep you waiting too long. bye!" I said as I hanged up.
'Talking to Blue? I can already imagine what you and Blue were talking about considering how much you blush around me whenever we get close to one another. Like that time Blue 'accidently' tripped and made you crash into me as we both fell to the ground. You were so flustered, even more than a Tamato berry. It was adorable.' I thought to myself as I sighed happily, finding myself at the entrance of Viridian Forest before I even knew it.
"That was faster than I thought! Now to head into the forest and spend some time with Yellow! ChuChu is going to be there too Pika, I know you can't wait to see her!" I said as Pika jumped off my shoulder and started running in the forest, with me chasing after him.
After a few minutes of running, I found the spot where Yellow was, as she sat on a rock with a slow-moving river in front of her with several flowers around her as she eagerly sketched something in her sketchbook.
"Hi Yellow! Sorry I took so long, I hope I didn't keep you waiting!" I said as Yellow quickly turned around, hiding her sketchbook behind her back with a blush on her face.
"R-Red! Hi, you didn't keep me waiting long at all, I was just drawing something to show ChuChu until I noticed Pika bolting out of the bushes. The both of them went off somewhere nearby." Yellow said as I sat down next to her.
I couldn't help but feel my face get hot as I noticed how beautiful she looked, her blonde hair gently flowing in the breeze while she gave me a big smile.
"Drawing something? I love it when you show me your drawings, mind if I see what it is and how it's coming along?" I said as Yellow became fidgety.
"A-ah sorry Red, it's not finished yet! Even when it's done it wouldn't be a drawing that's good enough anyhow!" Yellow said as she hid her sketchbook.
When I heard Yellow say this, I couldn't help but feel sad for her. I started twiddling my thumbs wondering what to say to cheer Yellow up and she must have seen the panic in my face as her expression relaxed immediately. After a few moments of thought, I knew what to say to cheer Yellow up.
"Yellow, do you really not think your drawings are amazing? I've never seen anyone draw with such great detail like yourself. Don't ever think that you're inadequate, because you're not." I said as I held Yellow's hands which was something I had never did before as her sketchbook fell on the grass.
Yellow couldn't help but blush when she noticed how I held my hands in hers, while our faces were close to each other. Yellow gently released one of her hands from my grasp and picked up her sketchbook, smiling softly as she handed it to me.
"If…if you want to see what I was drawing, it's on the very last page. I…I was thinking of giving it to you once I finished, hearing your words of encouragement really made me feel good. At first when I was drawing it, I really didn't think it was anything special. It's almost complete…s-so let me know what you think." Yellow said as she blushed and turned away from me.
I turned the pages carefully and saw some of Yellow's drawings that she previously showed me, I couldn't help but smile a little at each one, noticing how amazing Yellow was at drawing and how well she paid attention to detail, such as her drawings of Viridian Forest or ChuChu. When I made my way to the last page, I was utterly speechless and my only response was a small gasp while I stood up in shock, looking at the drawing and how well done it was while Yellow stood up and got nervous.
Yellow's drawing consisted of me and her holding hands in our usual outfits as we watched the sunset through the trees of Viridian Forest. Pika and ChuChu were in the drawing as well, sleeping peacefully by each other.
I looked at Yellow for a moment and saw that she appeared…worried. After I looked at the spectacular drawing once more, with a big grin on my face, I closed the sketchbook and put it down, giving Yellow a big hug, which wasn't something that I had ever done before. I couldn't help but smile as Yellow started to shudder slightly as she quickly returned the hug. After we embraced for a few more seconds, I released Yellow and sat back down, happy that she had a blush on her face while she also sat down once more.
"Yellow? Are you okay? You look surprised!" I said as Yellow's blush deepened.
"D-did you like the drawing…that m-much? You never hugged me before!" Yellow said.
"Of course I did, it's so detailed! Don't get me wrong, your other drawings are amazing, but this drawing in particular is awesome! However, it doesn't compare to a special someone." I said as Yellow appeared confused.
"Your…your special someone?" Yellow said as I worked up the courage to tell her how I feel.
"My special someone…is…you, Yellow. You're my special someone." I said as Yellow's eyes started to water.
"R-Red, that's the sweetest thing anyone's ever said to me…I thought you would have hated the drawing or laughed at how it looked. I…I had no idea you felt the same way about me like I did with you." Yellow said as she embraced me and cried.
"No need to cry, Yellow. I've loved you for so long, I just never knew how to express it. I'm glad you feel the same way. Sorry for keeping you waiting so long." I said as Yellow giggled.
"I love you too Red, I've felt that way for the longest time. I always thought you preferred Blue or Kris over me." Yellow said as we broke from the embrace and sat back down.
"Haha, you're funny Yellow! Blue is too much of a trickster for me, besides, she has a thing for Green. Kris always had a crush on Gold, though she would never admit it, we can all see how flustered she gets just being near him! Aside from that, she's really serious most of the time, it's why Gold calls her Super Serious Gal after all!" I said cheerfully.
"That's true, but what made you fall in love with me in the first place? We've known each other for ten years so it has to be something!" Yellow said as she looked at me and smiled.
"Hmm, I would say the first thing that made me fall in love with you…was your kindness. It's not something that many people had when I first met you. After all, Team Rocket was everywhere and they were slowly taking over towns, if it wasn't for the work of us Dex Holders and some of the Gym Leaders, who knows what could have happened. Despite the danger, you stayed brave the entire time." I said as Yellow hugged me.
"I remember how scary that was, I'm glad I was there to help out the others. I wouldn't know what I would do if any of you had gotten killed by Team Rocket." Yellow said.
"I know, we all survived, that's what matters. On a more lighter topic, how did you fall in love with me, Yellow?" I said with a smirk as Yellow turned red.
"Well, I fell in love with you when you saved me from that Dratini that started attacking me, then after you chased it off, you helped me capture a Rattata that later evolved into Ratty. I've loved you since then." Yellow replied as she twiddled her thumbs while I pretended to be shocked.
"Huh?! That was you?! I thought that was a young boy I saved all those years ago!" I said as I tried keeping a surprised expression, only to end up laughing.
"You knew that little boy was actually me in disguise after I revealed myself! You're such a jokester, Red!" Yellow said as she playfully slapped my arm.
"Hahah, of course I did! I'm not dense! When you took off your hat, I immediately recognized you as that 'boy' I saved! Though I still wonder something, did you initially disguise yourself because you're the protector of the Viridian Forest?" I asked as Yellow nodded her head.
"That's right, I had to do it, with Team Rocket capturing any Pokémon in and around towns not owned by trainers, disguising myself was the safest option considering how dangerous they were. They eventually made their way to the Viridian Forest and I barely managed to fend them off, you know I'm not as much of a battler as you are but I had my Pokémon use whatever moves they could to keep Team Rocket at bay, ChuChu, Kitty, Ratty and Gravvy really helped out. I still train them when I can in case of another attack and even try focusing on their weaknesses so I can be a more efficient battler." Yellow said as Pika and ChuChu came back and lied down next to us.
"Wow Yellow, that's amazing, I'm so proud of you! It's always good to become better, just don't overwork yourself too hard." I said as Yellow grinned.
"Don't you worry Red, I won't. We've been here for a while, do you want to hang out with Blue, Green, Gold or Kris?" Yellow asked.
"It would be nice to do that, we can hang out with them for a while, hopefully none of them start arguing again. We just have to be back before the sun sets." I said as Yellow and I both got up with Pika jumping on my shoulder while ChuChu did the same with Yellow.
Happy that our bond together was only going to grow stronger, we exited the forest hand in hand.
Upon leaving the forest, we immediately headed to Pallet Town and headed inside Professor Oak's lab, where Kris was there with Gold bothering her as usual.
