"Okay Lance, maybe you are right. Maybe I can tell you some things, just don't push it." Silver reacted. When Silver saw the smile on Lance face become bigger, Silver then knew it was the right choice.
"But don't expect from me that I will go and tell you everything. I still don't trust you enough for most of the things. So don't be too happy" Said Silver cranky. He still saw the big smile on Lance and Silver was now getting irritated of it.
"Then you shall learn to trust me Silver.., but you must know I am not as nice as Gold and Crystal" Lance stopped with smiling. "And if I find you moping somewhere with a attitude that is worst then you have normal, then I will have to force you to say what is on your mind. Do you understand?"
"I am glad you are not as Gold and Crystal. At least I don't have to be afraid that I have another stalker after me. And Lance if you hadn't noticed yet, I like a few nice people." Silver looked Lance straight in the eyes with one perfect raised eyebrow and said "And of course I will tell you immediately what's on my mind. I know that you will help me. You don't have to force me, I will tell you willingly."
Lance would be happy with that sentence…, if it wasn't laced full with sarcasm. Lance sighed. 'This can be difficult, but I love a fight just like Silver does. I will break that wall someday. And then I will be there, waiting and listen to him.'
"Yeah.. Maybe someday you will Silver. You will never know. By the way where do you sleep now?" Asked Lance suddenly.
"Ehm… Cherrygrove city Pokécenter. Why do you want to know?" asked Silver hesitantly.
"Come live with me Silver. You can do whatever you want. Only show some responsibility. Call when you will come home later and that stuff. No strings attached, I promise. Plus you can sleep in a good comfortable bed." Lance said confidently. 'Also I don't mind to see you at my home when I am waking up. See you go to bed. And see you take a sho… Wait.. What! He is just a kid. I must be ashamed of myself, except that I am not. Hope that he will say yes.'
In Silver's head everything went super fast. 'He want me to go with him, in his house, with him? He wants me to be with him? I would love to, but at the same time I don't. Live in the house with skeptical, sarcastic, sexy, Play the hero Lance? Wait what did I say after sarcastic? SEXY? Nooo.. damn I cant do this. Find an excuse for to say no! Ehm of course.. ELM! Yess!'
"I'm fine at the Pokécenter… Thanks Lance, but I would like to stay close to New Bark to help the Professor." Said Silver not so confident as he would like it to be. Lance saw that Silver wanted to, but didn't want to admit that. So Lance said just one thing.
"I could take you to New Bark if you have to go" Silver paled after that and Lance had to hide a smirk. He knew that Silver now had no excuse. Lance didn't do this for himself… No really, it was just a nice fact that Silver was there. But Lance did it for Silver. So that Lance could keep a eye on him..
"No thanks Lance, I will stay in the Pokécenter. Can you bring me back to Cherrygrove or do I have to walk?" Asked Silver harsh. Lance was surprised, when did Silver's emotions change? He looked at Silver and saw that he was looking angry at him. 'Of course I did it again. Just for a check, Let's look at his Pokémon's' Lance looked at Silver's Pokémon's and saw that Weavile as well as Feraligatr kept a close eye on him. When Lance didn't respond Silver stood up and recalled his Pokémon's and walked away. Lance saw Silver walking away and thought… Ho.. Wait walking away! Lance stood up paid for everything and then went after Silver.
"Silver wait up. Stay with me. It's easier and cheaper for you. You can train in the area. Just stay, you said you would tell me some things. I know you Silver if you won't come with me, then you won't tell me anything. So come with me." Said Lance soon, but Silver didn't listen or didn't hear it. Lance was getting irritated of it. So Lance did the only thing he knew so Silver couldn't ignore him and…
Grabbed Silver and pushed him against a wall.
"Hey, let me go now!" Screamed Silver while he was struggling.
"Did you even heard what I said to you?" Lance said angry. He was losing his control and took a few deep breaths to calm himself. 'How can that kid make me lose control so easily.'
"Yes I heard you. Now let me go!" Said Silver angry. "Not before you answer me." Told Lance him while looking intensely in Silvers eyes. Silver couldn't look away and slowly answered "Okay, I will stay with you then.." Lance smiled on the inside, but still looked at Silver. "So now you even listen to me and actually do as I say..? You're easy" Teased Lance.
Silver gave him a small grin and Lance looked shocked. 'Silver grins? I wonder wh… AHHH'
Silver kicked Lance, while Lance was thinking. Lance let Silver go and went with his hands to the place Silver kicked. 'Damn that kid can kick hard!' Thought Lance. He looked at Silver who looked with a pleased look on his face.
Lance let Dragonite out of his Pokéball and grunted "Go Dragonite, Silver get on Dragonite, we go to Blacktorn city." "Humph... Whatever you want… But try anything funny." Silver eyed Lance before he went on his Dragonite. Lance also went on Dragonite behind Silver. "Okay, hold on tight Silver. Dragonite take us to mine house."
Within 15 minutes they were in Blacktorn City in front of Lance his house. Silver hopped off Dragonite and looked around. He never felt like going to Blacktorn City, because the people in the Dragon's Den looked at him if they knew more than they should. And now Silver was going to live with Lance. 'Fate is a cruel thing, except it is fine to live with Lance I think...' Thought Silver.
"Silver… did you even heard me? Silver…? Ow are we on the ignoring status again?"Inquired Lance. 'Still no response hmm? Okay then the next way.' Lance put his hands on Silvers shoulder and shook him.
Silver jumped and hit the person that shook him. Lance didn't saw that one coming and he felt a nice handprint on his face. He looked at Silver, who looked almost guilty. Keyword almost. "Why did you hit me Silver?" Lance asked calmly. "It was a reflex, you didn't had to shook me. Calling my name would have worked."
"I did that multiple times. You just kept ignoring me. So theoretical I can hit you back. Wherever I want." Lance grinned. Silver gulped 'Since when does Lance grin, it's creepy'
"You wouldn't hit someone who didn't do it on purpose?" Responded Silver while looking as innocent as he could. Lance liked that look and he decided to hit Silver when he didn't expect it.
"Okay I won't hit you now, but I will some other time" Replied Lance while he winked at Silver. Silver looked away and blushed a little bit. Silver hoped that Lance wouldn't see it, but of course fate was not standing at Silver's and Lance saw the blush. "Are you blushing Silver?" Lance chuckled. " I do not blush Lance. Can we go inside, I'm getting cold. " Told Silver hastily. "Of course Silver, let me open the door for you. " Lance opened the door and let Silver go in first. Silver looked around. The living room looked normal, but nice.
"I will show you your room. Do you have your clothes at the Pokécenter?" asked Lance. "Yeah why do you want to know?" Asked Silver perplexed. "So I can pick them up, but first walk with me."
Silver looked at Lance and then walked after him. They went upstairs and Lance showed him the rooms. "This here is my room, your room is across of it." Lance pointed at the room across Lance his own room, it was a big bedroom, with a kingsize bed and a closet and more. The colors of the room were dark red and a vanilla color. Silver thought it kind of looked nice. They walked farther and Lance showed him the bathroom. It was just like Silver's bedroom big. It had a large tub and a shower, the toilet was behind a screen so that nobody could see you. The colors here were baby blue and very light yellow. Silver liked the bathroom.
"You should take a bath of a shower, I will show you the towels first before I will get you things." Lance told him before showing where the towels were. Silver said nothing and just nodded. "Okay I will get your things. See you later Silver." And with that Lance left.
Silver went the tub and filled it with water and a strawberry scented bad oil. Silver could see that Lance never used it as the wrapping was still on. Silver picked out a towel. Silver pulled of his clothes and undergarment and put them into the hamper and then went into the bath. While he was bathing a thought came suddenly in mind. 'I am not going to were those cloths and I have no clothes here lying to pull on. So I will have to wait till lance is back to get some clean clothes.' Silver stopped thinking about it and just relaxed for half an hour. Then he got out of the bath and dried himself. He put the towel around his waist and walked downstairs and hoped that Lance was there. When he saw that Lance wasn't there he went to sit on the couch and watch television till Lance came back.
In the mean time with Lance!
´Okay so pick up Silver´s things and then go back. Hope Nurse Joy will give them to me or say were I can get his stuff.´ When they arrived by the Pokécenter Lance recalled Dragonite and went inside.
"Ow good day Lance, how are you doing?" Nurse Joy asked politely. "I am fine Nurse Joy thank you, but I have something to ask. I have to retrieve the things of Silver a kid with red hair. Do you know were to find his things?" Asked Lance.
"Why yes, but why do you need to know? And why to retrieve is he staying with you Lance?"Asked Nurse Joy concerned. "Yes he is staying with me and could you tell me were I can find it?" "Down the hallway and then the first left and then the 8th door on your right, but you need this key."Said Nurse Joy while giving him the key. "Thank you Nurse Joy and could you take a look at my Pokémon's while I am retrieving his things?" Responded Lance while taking the key and pulled out his Pokéballs. "Of Course I will . See you later." Lance gave Nurse Joy his Pokéball's and went to Silver's room.
When he was in Silver's bedroom he saw a bag with a few things in it. When he looked farther around he saw another bag lying around and he saw that Silver's clothes was in there. 'wouldn't it be lovely to tell Silver that his clothes are gone and that he has to walk in house without clothes… hmm.. nice thought… Okay wait those thoughts later now getting his stuff and go home.' Lance picked up the bags and then looked around for more things. When he didn't saw more things he went back to Nurse Joy.
When he arrived by Nurse Joy he saw Gold. When Gold saw him with Silver's bags he went berserk. "What are you doing with Silver's bags!" Inquired Gold. "Ehm.. What about taking it with me to Silver? You know the one you are talking about" Responded Lance lazily. He then went to Nurse Joy to retrieve his Pokémon's and then went outside, only to hear more from Gold.
"How do you mean you taking it with you? It's from Silver not from you so put it back. When he will come back he need his stuff" "He also need it now. If I'm correct Silver is now done with showering or bathing and he won't were the dirty cloths he had on today. So he will be all naked with only a towel on him, only because you don't want me to give him some cloths." Lance grinned when he saw Gold blushing, becoming so red as his jacket. "How do you know where Silver is, even I don't know were he is." "Simple I know were he is, because he is with me. At my house right now." Lance called his Dragonite and got on him. "Sorry Gold, but I have to go, otherwise Silver will get a cold. And I don't want to have that now, do I?" Before he flew away he had a quick look on Gold's flustered face and then he was on his way to his house.
When he came home he saw Silver sitting on the couch, with only a towel on. He looked at Silver, because to be honest how many times can you look at Silver half naked? Never, indeed. So Lance looked at Silver for a few seconds and then walked to Silver. When he was in front of Silver he saw a few scars and he saw Silver blush. The scars were not big, but Lance gave himself a mental note to ask about it. Silver looked at him and Lance said: "Got you things? Saw Gold at the Pokécenter" Silver grabbed his bags and responded while walking to his room "Of course he does, he is always there. He is an annoying, stupid, possessed stalker that won't ever leave me alone" And then Silver was gone.
Lance went to the kitchen and got a soda out of the refrigerator and then walked back to the couch and watched television. When Silver came done in his normal clothes he said "What not even a drink for your house guest. Nice from you, Lance" "I told you already I am not nice. You can get one for yourself. Oh yeah and Silver, if I got you a soda you would throw a fit over that you could do it by yourself." Said Lance with a laugh before returning to watch the show on the tv. He heard Silver mumbling along the lines of "Stupid dragon trainer and Idiotic, lazy, stupid, annoying Champion."But what made Lance laughing out loud was when Silver imitated him "Ow look at me.. I am the mean stupid dragon trainer and Pokémon League Champion, but don't worry I am to lazy to get a drink for someone, so I won't fight you. Lazy ass of him…" Lance couldn't stop with laughing. Silver sounded so funny with that sarcastic tune on his voice while imitating Lance. When Lance finally did stop it was because Silver threw a can of Soda to his head.
Lance rubbed his sore side of his head while looking at Silver. Silver had troubling with controlling his laughter. Lance just looked so stupid. "Why did you do that Silver?" Asked Lance a little bit angry. "You wouldn't stop laughing and you didn't responded so it was fair this time" Said Silver while grinning. Silver sat down on the other couch and drank his soda. He didn't have to look at Lance to know that Lance was looking at him. Suddenly Silver remembered something. "What did Gold want from you?" Asked Silver seriously. "He wanted to know why I had your bags nothing more. Why?" Lance looked with caution to Silver. Something was on Silver's mind that was obvious, but the question was what?
"Oh.. Just curious. He wasn't in my room right?" "No he wasn't Silver. Now care to elaborate why you want to know that?" Asked Lance with one eyebrow up and looking intensely at Silver. It would have worked, if Silver looked at him. "Never mind, I'm going to bed. I'm tired. See you around Lance." Responded Silver tiredly and then walked to the kitchen to throw his soda away, before he went upstairs. 'That was weird, he never acts so withdrawn. I know that something is on his mind, but what and why hide it? Would it be possible that he likes Gold?' Lance gulped by that thought. 'Silver couldn't possible like Gold right? I mean he said it annoyed him that Gold was stalking… Oh wait… Gold is stalking Silver, maybe that is the reason. Better check on him'
Lance walked upstairs to Silver's bedroom and knocked on the door. 'No response, Typical' Lance knocked again only to hear a deep sigh and some shuffling towards the door. He then saw a very angry Silver who looked like he was ready to go to bed. "What do you want?" He asked pissed off. "Just came to check on you, because you were acting strange when I talked about Gold. Would you like to tell me what's going on?" "Ehm no? goodnight" Silver was about to close the door when Lance said "You would tell me if something was on you mind" " I also told you that I won't tell you to much as long as I don't trust you." "Silver tell me what's wrong otherwise I will call Gold and tell him everything I know about you." Lance looked at Silver with one eyebrow up. "You wouldn't, you want me to trust you and that wouldn't happen if you did that."Said Silver satisfied. "You don't know me, but would you try to find that out?" Said Lance smugly. He saw that Silver was doubting and went on. "You could just tell me what is wrong Silver. I just want to help you. I want to help you with your emotions and how to react on things. Please let me help you right now Silver." He looked sharply at Silver and saw that Silver still doubted. He touched Silver's shoulder for reassurance and felt that Silver was leaning to it. Lance was surprised, but didn't show it. "Okay I will tell you, because maybe it will help." Said Silver while biting on his lip. Lance looked at the sight. It was just so beautiful to see him doing that. Silver just looked so innocent and Lance loved it, maybe a little bit to much… "Come inside Lance an I will tell you, okay?" "Eh.. Y-yes that would be nice. Thank you for doing this Silver."Said Lance grateful. He walked in Silver's room and sat on one of the seats. Silver went to sit on the other one and began to talk.
"Gold… I don't know what's wrong with him. After he defeated me for the first time he has followed me. I didn't mind it, but after awhile he knew every place I was when I was struggling with emotions. That's how he also knew where you could find me." Silver took a deep breath and looked around him. "And what happened then Silver?" "Nothing special he would follow me and after a while I would battle him. Except he stalks me these days. Crystal said it's because he loves me and want to look out for me. I told Gold I don't like him and hoped he stopped stalking me. But as you saw he didn't" Silver looked at Lance for a second and then looked away. "Sometimes Crystal reminds me of Blue. She is nice to me and don't judge me. Blue never judged me."He gave a very small smile that Lance had seen with much trouble. "Crystal was the one who told me that I should tell Gold that I don't like him. She hoped for my sake that he would stop, only he didn't" He looked at Lance and said as if the whole conversation didn't happened "So now happy? Can you leave me now?"Said Silver in an absent tone "Silver.. Something is on your mind what is it? And don't tell me that it is nothing. You are somewhere else with your thoughts" Lance looked at Silver with a worried expression. Silver looked at Lance and saw that Lance was worried. 'Why is he worried? I can handle my own. Nobody ever worried about me except Blue and maybe Crystal. But those are girls it there nature to be worried right? So why is Lance worried?' Lance saw that Silver was puzzled by his expression. "Silver I do care about you so tell me what is on you mind?" "Gee.. And you told me you weren't nice. The only thing I hear from you mouth is: What's wrong, Talk to me and that kind of stuff." Silver looked annoyed. Lance brows shot an end up and after a few moments he reacted. "Silver I only want to help you. But if you are acting like this, then you will get it on the hard way."
Lance stood up and walked in front of Silver. He grabbed Silver left wrist and pulled him up. Silver jumped and felt against Lance. A light blush came on his face. Lance put his hand under Silver's chin and pulled it up so he had to look in Lance his eyes. Silver looked at Lance and was for a moment gone in his own fantasy. "Now you are going to tell me what is going on in you head. I won't let you go before you tell me."Said Lance stern. Silver tried to look away and when that didn't help he did the thing where he relied on the most and pulled his right hand back to slap Lance. Lance saw this happen And just before Silver hit Lance, he grabbed his hand and pulled it with his other hand. Now both Silver's hand was in Lance his hand and Lance grabbed his chin. "Try to hit me again Silver? Didn't work as quite as you wanted hmm?" "Let me GO! I mean it Lance!" Silver didn't like this position he couldn't do anything and the longer he looked in Lance his eyes the more he felt his resistance decrease. Silver didn't like it at all. "Tell me Silver and I let you go, I know you don't like this. It makes you look weak. You can't do anything and I can and you hate that. I can let you go when you tell me what's wrong." Silver eyes went glassy. 'Ow Lance If you only knew ' Silver tried to struggle, but when that didn't work he kicked Lance. Lance who suspected this, braced himself for the kick and felt nothing of it. Silver gave after a few moments up. Lance was from the inside happy that the kicking had subsided. "I just want that Gold leaves me alone. He continues to follow me. I have asked him to stop. But sometimes he comes at a bad timing… Crystal is keeping him of my back mostly and sometimes he isn't around. I'm glad then. He just don't leave me alone and I really love my privacy. Can you let me go now?"
Lance looked at Silver. He could understand why Silver was so attached to his privacy. He also could understand why Gold loved Silver. Lance looked in those Silver orbs and was practically hypnotized by them. Before he knew it he slowly moved forwards till his lips was an inch from Silver's lips. Silver was paralyzed. He wanted to stop Lance, but at the same time he didn't. When Lance lips touched Silver's, he was shocked and didn't do anything for a few seconds. Then Silver kissed him back. Silver told himself he didn't want it, except he knew better. Lance lips, they felt so good. Not to soft, but also not to rough. Just perfect. When he felt Lance asking for entrance he opened his lips a little bit. It was enough for Lance. The two began a fight with there tongues. Lance won and Silver didn't mind it to be fair. Lance tasted like musk, soda and something just Lance. Silver couldn't name it, but he loved it.
Lance was in heaven. He was kissing Silver, without being hit. Silver kissed back and more. Lance couldn't describe the feeling. Silver tasted like mint, soda, a little lemon flavor and Lance loved it. After a few moment, air was needed and they stopped kissing. They both breathed heavy and Silver had a cute blush on his face that was as red as his hair. Silver felt then that Lance's hold on his arms was reduced and he pulled his hands out of his. Lance looked at Silver and saw that Silver was stunned. He then heard him muttering some words. Lance listened carefully and heard a few. "He kis-.. me.. Lance… me? How…? Why … let…do that? But..? .. Hates me!" Lance looked at Silver and grabbed his chin again and let Silver look at his face. "Silver I don't hate you." Silver looked at him and Lance saw that he wasn't convinced. So of course Lance needed to prove it then to Silver and kissed him once again. This time Silver kissed back immediately, shy but he kissed back. Lance hands went to Silver's back and went slowly to Silver's ass. Silver tried not to groan, but one escaped and Lance loved the sound of it. He pinched in Silver's ass and Silver yelped. Silver pulled back from the kiss and looked at Lance. His eyes were dilated for a moment and Silver took some deep breath to stay calm. Lance looked at Silver and knew that they didn't go any further. Silver looked at Lance and saw him smiling. "Why are you smiling?" "Haha… I have a question for you to answer." Lance chuckled. "And that is?""Do you trust me enough now, Silver?" Silver blinked and decided to don't answer that question. Because the truth was that he did trust Lance. Silver just thought that Lance didn't need to know that, just for now. "Okay.. Silver… You look tired I will leave you, so you can sleep and think about today. And what you feel about me." Lance said quietly and before he left he gave Silver a quick kiss to Silver. Silver looked after Lance and said "You can't kiss me like that you know. I didn't want it so you were just molesting me…"Lance stopped and responded "I think you know how big that lie is Silver. You kissed me back and you were the one that groaned Silver. Stop lying to yourself, it isn't going to help you. Think about that." And with he went to his own room. Both Lance and Silver went to bed. Both had a lot to think about and so they both had a little sleep.
Silver thought about what Lance said to him. He knew he liked it. Maybe a little bit too much and it scared him. He also thought that he wasn't lying to himself. He was just in denial, that's not lying is it? Silver thought about it at least a half hour, before he had fallen a sleep.
Lance on the other hand was thinking about everything he saw and heard today. About Gold, about the scars on Silver's his body and of course the lovely kiss they shared. He just had to remember that he would ask about the scars tomorrow. He also knew that he would talk to Gold about stalking Silver. Maybe then Gold would leave Silver alone? Lance hoped so. A few minutes later, Lance had fallen in a sweet dream about him and Silver.
