So, a Pokemon fanfic!
It's probably nothing like Sleepless in Seattle, but I thought the title sounded good enough.
Enjoy!
"What?" Leaf stared at the professor in disbelief.
"Yep, they just up and left. I had no idea they promised you you could come, or I would've stopped them." Professor Oak responded.
Leaf couldn't believe her ears. Her two best friends since childhood, just leaving for faraway tropical islands without her when they literally promised they'd bring her along? No.
"There's gotta be some mistake." she said.
"You can call them and see." Professor Oak shrugged.
Leaf dialed the number that she knew by heart, and heard the voicemail message play.
"Sorry, you can't reach Red right now. But if it's Leaf, Blue and I are sorry, but you're too weak for Alola. We'll send you postcards though!"
Leaf dropped her pokegear.
"Professor," she began in a dangerously low voice, "can you afford to send me to Alola?"
"Oh, yeah. With all the funds your pictures have been earning, we could send a family of ten to Alola." the professor answered.
"Excellent. I need money, but not a plane ticket. Snap can take me." Leaf said, instinctively touching the poke ball that housed her moltres.
"Okay, how much, about?" he asked.
"I don't know, probably about five hundred thousand pokedollars." Leaf guessed.
"Okay, gotcha covered." Professor Oak went over to the safe-like thing and pulled out the money Leaf requested.
"Thanks, professor. I don't know what I'd do without you." Leaf sighed.
"No problem! Just be sure to get me a souvenir!" the professor laughed.
"Don't worry, I will!" Leaf called, and left the lab, closing the door behind her.
