Hey yall! Rylan here with another chapter of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Team Eternity!
The duo were sitting around that evening, thinking of how lucky they both were to have each other. Aqua was laying there, resting her head on Rylan's lap, sleeping while Rylan was reading a book. She mumbled something about Oran berries and a certain riolu with a shiv, causing him to smile softly before rubbing her head in a caring way, 'Who would've thought, the thief fell for the good girl.' He chuckled at that thought before he thought of how he could show her how happy he was that she asked him out, 'She did ask me on a date so she must have something planned,' she started to stir right then, causing Rylan to look down at her and smile even more as she got up and yawned in an adorable way in Rylan's eyes.
She looked at him and was surprised by the fact he had a genuine smile on his face instead of his trademark smirk that he always wore. She blinked before she looked shocked by something, "I can't believe I asked you about that," she said, confusing Rylan, "What do you mean," he asked, thinking that she may have been meaning that she hadn't meant to ask him out. "Well, I did mean to ask you out, but I thought I'd wait before I asked you out on a date," she explained, to Rylan's relief. "So you did mean to ask me to be your boyfriend, but you didn't mean to ask me out on a dte, okay then," he got up and walked over to her before hugging her, his tail wagging, causing Aqua to giggle at the young riolu's antics.
They left the Guild after talking about what to do before deciding to go to the beach. They admired it silently, Aqua leaning on her new boyfriend's shoulder, smiling softly, while Rylan had a small smile of his own, occasionally looking at his girlfriend. They looked at the sunset for an hour before Rylan remembered something. He stood up, surprising Aqua, who fell over before he picked her up and got her to stand before walking off, Aqua trailing behind, curiosity taking over. He continued to walk before he made it to the entrance to his home, the Bush that hid the entrance was then pulled aside by the riolu, who then waved Aqua inside.
When she got in she was surprised to say the least, "What a view, eh," Rylan said to her as he began grabbing some of his gear that he hadn't had with him when he first met Aqua. He grabbed a light orb, two teleportation orbs, and an escape rope, along with his stockpiling gear, and four hundred poke, surprising Aqua, "Where did you get all this," she asked, shocked that he had all of this. "You manage to get a good amount of gear when you steal, sell, and do other's work," he replied, looking a little down, thinking of all the jobs he's done. He sighed before adding, "I honestly regret every second of my criminal life, but when you have nothing else you can do to survive, you gotta do what you got to if you intend to live, even if it makes you a monster," he looked at a glass mirror, glaring at his reflection, thinking of the people who died because he was hired to. He was surprised when he felt a of pressure on his back, he looked behind him and saw Aqua, hugging him tightly, as if she thought he would disappear if she loosened her grip on him before telling him, "You are not a monster, Rylan, you are a good person at heart, even if you don't believe it yourself," she gave him a soft smile, yet she also looked sad.
He sighed before he started to turn around and hug her before he saw her having a few years in her eyes. "Don't ever think that you're a monster, Rylan, please," she cried harder before she let go of him and walked outside, her head down, tears streaming down her face, her throat tightening before she felt someone hugging her gently. She gasped before turning her head and seeing Rylan, her ex-criminal boyfriend, giving her a hardened look, yet to her it seemed almost kind, "Very well, Aqua " he said before kissing the tears on her face away, causing her to blush red enough to be seen through her fur. She kissed him on the lips when he finished before turning around and hugging him back, glad he wasn't in such a terrible mood anymore, they stayed like that for a while before they separated and walked back to the Guild, her paw in his, both smiling at each other.
There you go, have a good night, and please do review, I only have one guy who always let's me know if it's any good.
