Dreaming
After the little incident earlier, (both to be exact) Aria really didn't say much at all. After she had some soup, her and Pikatwo went to go get her bag. All of her pokemon were soaking wet when she released them. The weather began to clear up, and by the end of the day you could see the Mt. Quena sunset; a beautiful array of rose pink, vermillion orange, sunburst yellow, and speckles of violet purple.
After dinner, I found Aria sitting outside the entrance of the cave, staring dreamily into the sunset. Her thick, brown hair was blowing slightly in the calming wind. While looking from afar, I began to read her mind.
"The sunset is so beautiful." She thought to herself. Her mind then began to play soap operas in her head with two people staring into the sunset.
"They had someone to share it with…" she sighed in her mind.
"Yes but their bond was broken because he cheated on her," I said to her, startling her.
"Have you been reading my mind?" she gasped.
"Yes. What I was saying was that some humans can be unfaithful to their loved ones. They can be selfish," I said coldly.
"Is that why you hate humans? Is it also why you are so mean?" her eyes narrowed.
"No. Why would I hate humans' for their mistakes on their love lives? I hate them because humans are greedy, selfish, and they have no respect for anyone but themselves," I said icily.
"Not all humans are like that," Aria murmured.
"Yes they are," I contradicted.
"No they are not!" She said back.
"You would know! You are one of them!" I snapped. That slipped out. I immediately felt remorse for what I said.
Aria stood up, facing me, her eyes glistening with tears.
"Now you listen here, Mewtwo! I don't know what your problem is with humans, but I am not a greedy, selfish, brat! Let me remind you that you haven't been so kind either so back off and leave me along for the rest of the night!" she yelled at me and stormed off.
That went well…..
It was about 10:00 when Aria went to sleep. I gave Aria one of the spare bedrooms. I could here her tired sighs from the living room, and as soon as she fell asleep, I went bed myself.
I only had to sleep about 10 hours a month, and I had only slept 4 this month so I was pretty worn out. As soon as I laid my head on the pillow, I fell into my dreamless slumbers.
4 hours later
It was about 2:00 when I woke up feeling a little restless. As I sat up in my large bed, I looked around the room. My room was pretty large and spacious. Even though pokemon do not usually prefer rooms, I like to have a place to myself. As I stared into space thinking about these past few days, I heard something.
Like talking. More like moaning. I hoped out of bed and started down one of the hallways. Everything was quiet.
Just imagining things…..
When I turned to go back, I heard my name being called out.
I walked down to Aria's room and listened from the closed door.
It was her talking in her sleep.
I stealthy opened her door and looked at her.
She was sprawled out on her little bed squirming slightly.
It was rather funny, until she began to whimper quietly.
I began to examine what she was dreaming about.
She was in an old, beaten down house that was supposed to be haunted. As she walked cautiously in the rickety house, she heard noises. Scary noises. She continued to walk, but some glass mysteriously broke right in front of her. She ran down a random hall screaming. Until she bumped into a cloaked figure. The figure held her up to his face and said,
"If I knew you would be such a brat about this I would have let you drown!"
I froze. She was dreaming about…ME? Well not really about me, but more like the things I said.
What have I done? I began to read more.
"No I wasn't. I-I thought it was a dream," she began to stutter.
The scene changed to a familiar setting. A place with a sunset.
"You are one of them!" My words from this evening reverberated in her head.
"No I am not! Please, I am different!" Aria whispered.
"No it is over. I don't want to see you ever again. Go away," I said in her dream.
If she would get any more of this dream she would hate me forever!
So I went inside her head and began to shake her awake.
Her eyes flew open before I could leave the room.
"Mewtwo? Please don't hurt me," she said dreamily.
"Aria, don't be afraid. I won't hurt you," I said, feeling that new emotion.
She nodded absentmindedly and started off into space.
"Goodnight, Aria," I said after a while of silence.
"No don't! Stay here," she said.
"Okay," I said.
"I am sorry for saying those things I said earlier to you. I never meant to hurt you," I said while sitting at the foot of her bed.
"Am I really that bad?" she murmured.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Am I really I selfish brat?" she said quietly.
"No. You are not," I said to her with a little chuckle. She was still half asleep.
Aria got up and sat next to me. She was so close.
"Mewtwo…about what happened earlier…in the lab…." She began, but I stopped her. I knew what this was about. She was going to tell me there was no spark and there would never be anything between us.
"Aria, I am sorry for evading your personal space and it will not happen again. You just weren't breathing so I had to-"
….She cut me off with a kiss! Not anything compared to what happened earlier but a real kiss. She placed a small hand on my face and she scooted a little closer. I grabbed her shoulders and slowly pulled her away. She looked a little puzzled as to why I stopped.
"What was that for?" I murmured.
"Did you…like it?" she asked.
I sighed at her expression; total innocence.
Why would such a little, innocent human want an outcast like me.
"I just don't understand," I said.
"Understand what?" she asked.
"How could you have feelings for me after I have fought and argued with you? How?" I asked.
"I don't know…When you kissed me this morning I felt something," she said with a shrug.
"Me to," I said after a pause.
"Really?" her face lit up.
"Yes," I said.
She sighed and leaned against my shoulder.
"Aria it is late. Go back to sleep," I said after 10 minutes.
"Okay," she said and crawled back to the pillows.
"Goodnight, Aria," I whispered and left the dark room.
Sooo? How is it? I am trying to keep it as G rated as possible. Nothing too serious. And yes i did see Mewtwo Returns. I think they should come out with another Mewtwo movie!
