AN: I wrote this due to the lack of Hilbert/Skyla stories. I like this pairing so here's a story about it.

I do not own Pokémon (Note all Pokémon on Hilbert's team here are based off of my team)

Hilbert was riding back to Unova on Reshiram. He finally had found N and convinced him to come back to Unova. He had explored the Sinnoh Region a bit after N had left, but he felt something inside that was calling him back home. It wasn't missing his mother or his friends Cheren and Bianca; it was one person that stood out in his mind; the Gym Leader Skyla. There was something about her that Hilbert found… appealing. After the battle with Ghetsis, before Hilbert started his journey to find N, Skyla had asked him to come to Mistralton City for something.

When he had arrived in Mistralton City he found Skyla waiting in front of the Pokémon Center. She looked as stunning as ever, but Hilbert doubted he'd ever be able to tell her that. He flew down from Reshiram and greeted Skyla.

"Hey Skyla. You wanted me here for something?" Hilbert asked.

"Yes I did. Follow me." Skyla commanded in a cheery voice. Skyla led Hilbert back to the Gym. The two entered and Skyla pushed a button behind a secret panel and opened a stairwell going to the top floor of the Gym, which was Skyla's home area. She gestured for him to sit on the couch in her living room. Skyla and Hilbert took their seats on opposite ends of the couch.

"Hilbert" Skyla began "Ever since we met that one day… I felt like there was a really special connection between us. I can't really say that about many people. Then again, I don't have many friends"

Hilbert's heart slowly started to beat faster when he realized what she was saying, but he was too nervous to say what he felt just yet

"You always seemed the type that got along with lots of people." Hilbert said

Skyla sadly shook her head "No. People usually find me obnoxious, even though it's just my personality; Elesa is one of those few people who actually can accept that as part of my personality, you can see it too." Then Skyla's expression changed to a more serious one "But now I want you to know that I want to go on a date with you Hilbert!" Skyla said.

Hilbert took a moment to process this information then replied "Skyla. I have strong feelings for you too." Skyla's eyes began to glow warmly at him "but I have to leave tomorrow. I have to find an old rival… and begin a true friendship with him."

"You mean N right?" Skyla asked. Hilbert nodded "I feel you two would make great friends; he was raised to care for Pokémon, but his methods for accomplishing his goals were misguided."

"Hey Skyla, its only 11:30; I still have all of today before I leave. So I'd like to formally ask you on a date today." Hilbert said. Skyla smiled and said "of course".

"Great! Meet me in Castelia City at 3 PM." Hilbert said. The two went on their date and found out they had many of the same interests, then they went to Nimbasa Park and Skyla had surprised Hilbert by kissing him at the top of the Ferris Wheel. Then the two had parted ways at the end of the night.

The next morning they had met in front of the Pokémon Center to say goodbye.

"Hey Hilbert." Skyla said as Hilbert was getting out Reshiram's Pokeball

"Yea?" Hilbert responded.

"I was right about our connection. I promise I will wait for you to return and refuse to accept you are dead until the funeral. Send me messages when you can." Skyla said with tears beginning to form on her eyes.

"I promise I will." Hilbert said, and then he held out his pinkie. Skyla giggled and linked it with her own, and then Hilbert quickly returned yesterday's favor and kissed her. Then Hilbert got on Reshiram's back and flew off on Reshiram and was waved off by Skyla.

As Hilbert continued his journey he managed to write several letters to Skyla and she wrote him back several times as well. Then he reunited with N.

He left on his journey two years ago to find his lost friend, now he returns to Mistralton City. As he is flying he notices a boy in green riding a giant red bird, probably from another region, and then he saw the lights of the Pokémon Center and landed by it. It was too late to wake Skyla up, so he booked a room and went to lie down on his bed; he stared at the ceiling and got excited since he realized that he would see Skyla tomorrow!

Short start I know, but it's a start I this Hilbert/Skyla fanfic
