Me: Sorry, no smexyness in this chapter.

N: Awww... :'(

Touya: Why are you sad? .

Touya woke up, staring at a white ceiling. "You're awake." Turning his head, he saw Cheren sitting on a chair, looking up from the book he was reading. "I guess..." Was Touya's weak reply.

"Touya, what happened in the Ferris wheel? I couldn't get any closer because of those Team Plasma tugs." Cheren said, waiting for a sensible answer.

Touya closed his eyes, laying a hand on his forehead. He remembered what he and N did in the carriage. I had sex with him...

"A struggle." He replied. Touya didn't like to lie to Cheren, but he couldn't possibly tell his best friend he had sex with an older man in a Ferris wheel, who was also the boss of Team Plasma!

"What kind of struggle?" Cheren's face looked dark; he just knew that Touya was lying. The brunet looked away, avoiding Cheren's stern look underneath those glasses. "He told me he was Team Plasma's boss and we started arguing about his Pokemon liberation plan. I said it was pathetic and selfish to steal someone's Pokemon just because he believed there are no humans that love and take care of their Pokemon. He got mad and we winded up fighting."

He looked back at Cheren, who was glaring down upon him. Oh, come on! That's the best excuse I ever made and he still doesn't believe it?! I even spoke the truth when I said N was the leader of Team Plasma! The brunet pulled himself up. "You don't seem convinced." He said, trying to remain calm.

"No. I'm not. Good guess." Cheren said, also trying to remain calm. "Look, what do you want me to say?" Touya asked. "The truth, Touya! And not some sloppy excuse! I believe it when you say that guy was Team Plasma's leader, but what came after it is so obvious that it has to be a lie!" Cheren jumped up from his chair, knocking it on the ground with a loud bang.

"The truth, huh? Then what about: He lured me into the Ferris wheel just so he could have sex with me! Is that a better excuse?!" The words fell from Touya's lips before he knew it and right after, he felt a heavy weight falling on his head.

Touya fell back with his head on his pillow and heard Cheren stumping away, shouting: "Why do you always have to say such ridiculous things?!"

A small smile appeared on Touya's lips. "Even when I speak the truth he doesn't believe me. But then again. I wouldn't believe him either when he told that to me."

When he was back on his feet, he heard from Nurse Joy that Cheren had already left town in a foul mood. Touya sighed. "I guess I'll make up with him later." He decided and continued his journey.

It was after he defeated Skyla in the Mistralton City Gym he met N again. "It seems that your Zebstrika likes you very much." N said. "Of course he does. I treat him and all my Pokemon with care, you know." Touya replied offended and returned Zebstrika back into his pokeball. He left N's side with his nose high in the air.

"You look angry. Did something happen?" N asked, following Touya. "Let me see. Yes! Because of you, I'm having a fight with my best friend!" He hissed angry. "You mean the guy with the glasses?" N questioned bored. "His name is Cheren!" Touya huffed. "Ever since the Ferris wheel, he refuses to speak to me and that's your entire fault!" He poked an angry finger in N's chest. "My fault? I don't believe it entirely is my fault since you actually complied with it." N retorted.

Touya's face turned a color brighter and he turned around. "Maybe your friend is jealous..." N said. His face turned grim after imagining his beloved Touya making out with someone else. Touya at the other hand, his heart skipped a few beats when N said that.

Cheren jealous? Because of what happened in the Ferris wheel? But I thought he didn't believe me. Unless... he did believe me and got mad because... A smile appeared around his tender lips. His thoughts filled itself with images of his beloved friend. The red color on his face became deeper. Cheren...

N noticed the brunet's sudden change in behavior. A snarl appeared on his lips and he grabbed Touya forcefully by his arm. "Hey! What's the big idea?!" Touya exclaimed surprised.

N did not reply and started to drag the younger one with him. "Where are you taking me? Let me go!" Touya started to struggle. Yanking his arm till it almost hurt. But it was no use. N held the young one's arm in an iron grip, dragging the boy with him towards Route 7.

"N, I'm warning you. If you don't let me go this instant, then..."

"Then what?" Touya growled low and went with his other free hand towards his belt. "Serperior, help me!" He threw his partner's pokeball in front of N.

Serperior appeared, hissing dangerously at N. Demanding that the green head let go of his trainer. N stopped his track, and looked at the grass Pokemon, but refused to let Touya go. "Touya, call him back." N said in a low voice. "From mine point of view, you're in no position to argue." The brunet retorted back. "Call him back!"

"Serperior!"

The majestic grass Pokemon howled and extended his vines. They grabbed N by his other free arm. Serperior hissed again. Telling N once more to let go of his trainer or else he would show no mercy towards the green head. Why?! Why does Serperior has so much faith in his trainer? N wondered. It was not just Serperior. All Touya's other Pokémon were very fond of him. And Touya was very fond of his... no, all other Pokemon.

He let go of the younger one's arm. Serperior let go of N, but was still glaring at the one that threatened his precious trainer and human friend. "I don't get it. Why do your Pokemon care so much about you?" N questioned. "Because I love them. I threat them with love and care. They're not just Pokemon to me, they're not tools for battle, they're my friends! And there are many other trainers that think the same as me!" Touya stated.

N turned around and took the brunet's face between his hands. He kissed the younger one on his soft lips. Touya shocked. Behind N, Serperior hissed again and his vines smashed the ground next to him, tearing it open.

N parted and smiled. "I won't let you love someone else." He said and left.

Touya was stunned, unable to think. Serperior wrapped itself around his trainer. The young one petted his partner. "Thanks, Serperior. I don't know what would have happened if you didn't help me." He said.

Me: Bleeeh. Short chapter. Next will be longer. I promise.

N: Longer and hotter!

Touya: Oh god...
