I am seriously swamped with work and homework. I'm so sorry for not updating sooner. A lot of this will probably take place after the major events in the Boss' Daughter. Anyway, maybe one or two more chapters to this one. It really was never intended to be long. This chapter is sort of rushed?


Something didn't feel right.

Green didn't know what it was, but something wasn't right.

Maybe it was because he hadn't heard from Lyra in a few days? Or maybe it was because Lance had been avoiding him ever since Green said no to Lyra going to take on Team Rocket?

He had called his grandpa, asking if Lyra was around, but he always told him some different story. She was off somewhere in the fields, she was in another town, spending the day with Ms. Delia, her phone was dead, etc. etc. Green was starting to get a little suspicious.

Yet, he didn't press it too much. Why would his grandpa, or Ms. Delia, lie about something like that?

He did, however, start to press it when he called Lyra, and she hit the ignore button.

This irritated him, and worried him. That's why he was climbing up Mt. Silver at this very moment. Lyra might ignore Green's calls, but she would never ignore Red's.

Ever.

"Red!" Green called out once he got to the top, and felt shivers all over his body when Red's eyes locked on him. "I need to talk to you. It's about Lyra."

"What's wrong?" He asked, turning sharply towards him and walking at a brisk pace until he was right in front of Green.

"It's a long story, c'mon." He motioned and led him down the mountain, to the nice warm Pokemon Center that was at the base of the mountain. "Team Rocket is back, in Johto this time." Green started and Red looked surprised. "Giovanni isn't with them. The whole point is to try and get him back. Lance came to me and told me that he thought Lyra should go to Johto and help take down Team Rocket with these two other boys her age. Lance says they show promise since they took down Team Rocket in the SlowPoke well, but I said no way to that."

"Of course." Red agreed. Green smiled at this.

"Exactly. She isn't ready and she doesn't know anything about battling! I haven't spoken to her in a while. She ignores my calls and gramps and your mom won't tell me where she is."

"I'll call her then." Red nodded his head and pulled out his poke'gear.

"Eh, why don't you ever call me?" Green asked, eyebrows raised as Red searched this his short list of contacts for Lyra's number.

"Bad service up there." Red mumbled as he dialed the girl's number. It was silent for a few moments, then Red looked up at Green. "She ignored my call."


"Something is seriously up." Green told Red as they trudged through Viridian City. It was much later now, having spent most of their time walking down Mt. Silver and then to Viridian City. "We can crash at my place tonight, hope you like the couch."

"Why the couch?" Red said, almost pouting, as Green unlocked the door to his small house. He let Red in and locked it back.

"I am not sharing a bed with you!" Green exclaimed, embarrassed as he walked down the hallway to his bedroom. The last thing he needed was having one of those dreams about Red and getting a hard on with Red in the bed with him. That would be way too embarrassing.

He shut the door to his room, hoping to keep Red out while he went to take his nightly shower. Once he came out of shower, he frowned, seeing Red in his bed, with only his black shirt and boxers on. Pikachu was on his chest, already asleep.

"What the hell?" Green asked, rubbing his towel over his hair to dry it. "Get out of my bed."

"No." Was all Red said. Green knew arguing with him about this was pointless, so he just turned off the light and climbed onto the other side of the bed.

"You better not kick in your sleep." Green said before he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"A-Ah.." Red moaned as Green's mouth moved all over his body. His mouth was warm against Red's icy cold skin, it felt amazing. He started to moan again when Green's hands went down to take care of the bulge growing in his boxers. "Green…" He moaned, needing the friction badly. He felt the cold air hit his hard on as Green pulled down his boxers and…

"Red? Are you okay?" Green shook Red awake. "I heard you saying my name. Are you okay?"

"Uh.." Red had no clue what to even say. "I had a dream you were hogging up the bathroom…I really have to pee." Red lied and sprinted to the bathroom to 'relieve' himself.

He couldn't believe that he had a dream like that. He had a few like that before, but he was really hoping, that while sharing a bed with Green, he wouldn't have a dream like that. Luckily, Green didn't seem to think anything was up, so maybe he got away with it?

His best friend could be a little dense sometimes, so he probably didn't think anything of it. Red really didn't know what to do about it. He liked his friend. Some might say it was because he had been up on the mountain for so long, void of any human contact, but he knew that wasn't true. He figured he should just make a move, but, for now, he would have to put his feelings aside until they found out where Lyra was.

Once he was done, he came out of the bathroom to find Green stretched out and asleep. Pikachu was pressed against his back. Red climbed back in the bed, trying not to get too close to Green.


When Green woke in the morning, Red was practically on top of him, along with Pikachu. He groaned, unable to move from his position without waking his friend up. Normally, he'd shove him off, but he looked so content and warm and…cute, he just couldn't disturb him.

He yawned and closed his eyes for a few seconds, almost falling back asleep until Red stirred in his sleep. Green didn't know what to do, so he kept his eyes closed as Red woke up. Red quickly moved off of Green, extremely embarrassed.

"Sorry." Red mumbled as he picked Pikachu up, waking up his beloved pokemon. "Hey, Green." He shook the other boy, who instantly opened his eyes. "Get up."

"I am up." Green sat up, running a hand through his messy hair. "You were the one that was on top of me." He slid out of the bed and went into the bathroom to start his morning routine.

"You could've moved me."

"Eh…" Green muttered, toothbrush in hand. "I was trying to be nice." Green lied.

"I'm going to call Lance." Red announced, picking his jeans off the floor. He reached into his pocket and grabbed his poke'gear. "I know he has something to do with this."


"After I told you NOT to do that, you did it anyway?!" Green asked, out raged. The trainers in his gym jumped back, startled by their leader's outburst. At first they were surprised to see Red, but shrugged it off since he was Green's best friend, and if anyone could get Red down from the mountain, it was Green. Then, once Lance entered the gym, they became surprised again. He seemed nervous, which was uncharacteristic of the dragon master.

"I spoke to the professor and Delia about it again." He explained, holding up his hands. "This is something she has to do. She's doing a great job so far. She's made friends with Silver and Ethan and has caught her own team of pokemon. She even got a gym back."

"She…she did?" Green seemed to calm down a little.

"Yup. She also saw Suicune." Lance nodded his head, much more confident.

"Where is she now?" Red asked, narrowing his eyes.

"Now? I'm unsure. I came here once you called." Lance said and his poke'gear rang. "Ah, hello professor Elm, how-what?" Lance's face turned serious. "I'll be there soon. The Radio Tower?" He asked and Red looked at Green. "You called them first?! Professor-"

"Green! The Radio Tower in Golden Rod has been taken over by Team Rocket! It's all over the news!" An ace trainer shouted, getting the gym leader's attention.

"We need to get to Golden Rod." Red announced, grabbing onto Green's sleeve and pulling him.

"Let's go." Green said, now sprinting out of his gym with Red right beside him.


The radio tower was filled with Rocket Grunts, but they didn't surprise either of them.

"Wow, just like old times." Green muttered as his Arcanine took down yet another zubat. "Except these guys seemed tougher."

"They did. We're stronger now." Red said, his venusaur scaring off other grunts.

"It's more terrifying now though." Green admitted, looking over at Red. They had no clue where Lyra was. She could be perfectly fine, but she could be tortured somewhere, or worse, her father could have gotten her. Red took hold of Green's hand and squeezed it firmly before he let it go. Green smiled at Red, feeling much better about the whole situation.

"We've got this." Red said confidently, looking at Green. "We've done it before. Lyra will be alright, let's just find her. Venusaur! Grab them!" Red ordered and his pokemon grabbed hold of two grunts with it's vines.

"Where is she!?" Green asked, more confident now. His Arcanine growled, flames coming out of its mouth.

"Who?" A grunt squeaked, terrified.

"Lyra!"

"S-She's upstairs! At t-the top!" A grunt admitted and Venusaur dropped them. Red returned the pokemon and Green grabbed his hand, following his large canine pokemon up the stairs.

"Lyra!" Green shouted as his Arcanine busted into the room, startling everyone in the room.

A black haired boy was staring at them, his eyes wide and mouth open, while a red headed boy stared down two executives, keeping an eye on them.

"SILVER, ITS GREEN!" Ethan shouted, excited. "H-Holy shit! Red too!"

"Who is Silver and who is Ethan?" Green asked, looking at the boys.

"I'm Ethan!" The over excited boy said.

"I'm Silver." The red head answered, looking a little embarrassed because of his friend.

"I knew they could handle this themselves." Green grumbled to Red, who nodded his head in agreement. "Where is Lyra?"

"We don't know…" Silver said.

"Well, Suicune came and got Lyra…" Ethan explained the whole situation and Green and Red stood there, hardly believing it.

"All of you, out!" Green shouted at the rocket grunts and they ran out, not questioning it. "This is not good…"

"Lyra will be fine, she's very strong!" Silver told them and Ethan agreed.

"She is?" Green asked, curious.

"Yes, very strong." Silver nodded his head. "I wouldn't worry. Now, uh, just wondering…why…you two are here?" Silver questioned. "I assume you two know Lyra."

"She didn't tell you about us?" Green asked, crossing his arms. "How rude."

"She didn't tell us really anything about her." Ethan added. "She just told us…uh..an hour ago…that she was Giovanni's daughter."

"I believe Lance told her not to tell us about that, or about her life. I don't see why though. Who your parents are does not mean who you are." Silver explained.

"He's not so bad." Green said, turning to Red. Red didn't say anything, he only looked at Green. "Don't get all shy now. You okay?" He asked Red and looked directly into his red eyes. "Hm?"

"Fine." Red said quietly. He then nodded his head and shrugged.

"You talk all the time with me, but now you decide you can't talk more than one word?" Green asked.

"Hey, I just saw Lyra!" Ethan said as he looked out the window. "Let's go! We'll leave you two for the police!" He stuck his tongue out at Archer and Ariana and grabbed onto Silver's sleeve, disappearing down the stairs.

"Let's go." Green followed them, but Red pulled him back after they went down on flight of stairs. "What's wrong with you?"

Red blushed, biting his lip. He had to tell Green that he liked him. He could barely look or even speak to him now, and he knew he was irritating Green. His hand that grabbed Green's earlier was still tingling and it was making it hard to concentrate. "Let's go." Red said, now taking the lead down the rest of the stairs. Once they exited the building, police rushed in and some held the crowd back. Lyra rushed over to them, crying and hugging them at the same time. Red was happy to see her and hear about her win, but he didn't like all the reporters and cameramen around them.

Lyra's attention was drawn away from the two males once Ms. Delia showed up, crying about her baby. Red smiled softly. "Looks like you got yourself a little sister." Green murmured into his ear so he could hear him about the crowd.

"Red is down from Mt. Silver?" Someone asked, seeing Red.

"Green, why the hell aren't you at your gym?" Another person asked.

Red hid behind Green, uncomfortable. His hand gripped Green's hand tightly and Green shielded him from the reporters. "I know you hate crowds, but she did it."

"I know. I know." Red said and pressed up against Green's back. "So loud."

"It is." Green said, feeling Red behind him. He shivered from Red's touch, like he always did.

"I wanna go home." Red mumbled and Green tightened his grip on Red's hand.

"Back to Mt. Silver?" Green asked.

"No. Pallet Town." Red murmured, not seeing how happy his answer made Green.


I am having a difficult time writing about these two.

Anyway, I'm just glad I finally got this chapter out.
