Disclaimer : I don't own pokemon & its characters.

A/N : Since English isn't my first language, I'm writing each chapter in 500-600 words so it's quite short. Also excuse me if I use wrong grammar, limited vocabs or wrong sentences. I use game settings for this one, not the manga. I'm trying my best to make it a good one & to update regularly.


Lyra's POV

Today will be an exciting day for me and Ethan. We're going to Mount Moon for dating and training, well in Ethan's case, he's the one who wants to train with his pokemon, not me since I don't take part in battles. I prefer showing my love and compassion to pokemon by helping my grandparents' day care center or assisting Professor Elm in his lab. Though I myself don't battle, I love watching how Ethan battles and trains. He and his pokemon share a very close bond with one another as if they have the same mind and determination when it comes to battling, but I believe he loves them so much that he always sees them as best friends, may be even as family members.

Me and Ethan have been dating for the last two years ever since he was acknowledged as the new Johto League Champion. I still remember those unforgettable moments when he came back to New Bark Town as the new champion and all our neighbours held a big welcoming party to celebrate his victory for defeating Lance and the Elite Four members. At the same time, he also confessed his love to me then without hesitation we shared our first kiss. We were only sixteen back then, now that we are eighteen years old, I still can't believe how fast the time has passed as it feels only yesterday that I said goodbye to him for starting a journey with his Cyndaquil.

I had put on my good old blue overall, red shirt with long sleeves, a pair of white knee-high stocking and of course, a big puffy white hat with red ribbon on it as my trademark. I brushed my chestnut brown hair then tied them into cute pigtails. I came downstairs to find my mom had prepared breakfast for me.

"Good morning Lyra. Feeling excited today dear ?" My mom asked with her usual chirpy tone.

"Morning mom. Yeah, I can't wait to see Ethan today. We plan to have a date on Mount Moon." I replied happily while chewing my food slowly.

"Nice to hear that, but please remember to come home, okay ?" She winked at me.

"Don't worry mom. You know Ethan very well. Besides we know certain limits about dating."

"I know. Since you both are eighteen, I'm sure you two know what's right and what's wrong very clearly."

I just smiled at my mom. Funny that sometimes she sees me as an eight year old instead of an eighteen year old. Well, guess that no matter how old I am, I will always be her cute, innocent little Lyra.

Then I heard someone's knocking at the door. I rushed to open it, finding Ethan standing in front of me. "Morning Lyra. Ready for our date ?" He asked happily. "Sure. What are we waiting for ? Let's go!" I replied, holding his hands tightly.

"Be careful you two. Don't lose control so fast." My mom suddenly appeared behind me. "Don't worry ma'am. I'll take good care of her." Ethan assured her. She chuckled, "Don't you always dear ?" I just sighed then me and my boyfriend said goodbye to her. After she closed the door, Ethan called out his Pidgeot and in seconds, we both were flying on its back, straight to Mount Moon.
