Me: Sorry I haven't uploaded in a while!
Leaf: You're forgiven only if this chapter is good
Me: Hey! I'm trying right now! I have like three stories I'm working on
Leaf: And?
Me: And I'm not like those talented authors who can juggle a lot of stories at once
Leaf: Whatever floats your boat
Me: I don't have a boat
Leaf: -exasperated sigh- She doesn't own us at all
Me: Just the plot :)
Leaf: Yeah that
Me: ENJOY!
It was now the day of the party, "are you sure you want to tell everybody?" Leaf asked Gary.
"Yeah I'm sure."
"Okay. Um, how do you think they'll handle it?"
"I think they'll take things fine."
"Alright then," her voice was uneasy.
"I know this seems like a lot to handle but trust me they'll love you just as much as I do. Well probably not because I'm the only who can love you like this," he kissed her and she returned it happily.
"That's true."
The house was filled with the smell of some home cooking and a few little streamers hanging around. Everything was dusted and cleaned, and then the doorbell rang. Standing there were two girls, one with orange hair put down to her neck and another one with chestnut brown hair in two pigtails. Leaf opened the door.
"Hello May and Misty."
"Um, do we know you?"
"Not really but I know you. I'm Leaf, come in Gary's just doing some things in the back," they stepped inside and followed Leaf to the backyard.
"May, Misty! Glad to see you could make it," Gary looked up from his clipboard.
"Hey Gary, is Ash here yet?" Misty asked.
'Typical Misty,' the three of them thought, but their thoughts were disturb by a loud knock at the door. Gary opened only to find a blur of blue race past him and knock him down, a Pikachu ran through the door and saw Misty. It immediately ran to her with happiness.
"Hey Pikachu! It's been a while, miss me?" Misty asked.
"Pika!" The electric mouse replied. It sniffed the air and noticed Leaf's Pikachu running about, they soon became close friends.
Not long after, Ash had come down. "Sorry Gary! I guess I just really needed to use the bathroom," he said sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck.
"It's no problem Ashy boy," he said with a smirk.
"What did I say about- You know what? Nevermind I'm not going to put up another fight about this!" He sighed.
"Since when did you stop arguing Ash?" Misty asked from the door. He spun around and pulled her into a big hug, she blushed and noticed how much he had changed.
"Hi Ash, I'm Leaf. It's nice to meet you!" Leaf held out her hand and Ash shook it, "and it seems your Pikachu and mine are becoming great friends!" She pointed to Shock and Pikachu. Ash simply smiled at the greeting and comment.
The rest of the group had arrived. Professor Oak, Brock, Drew, Delia, and the others (I got lazy :3). They all gathered in the living room conversing amongst each other as Gary and Leaf got ready, although Leaf was starting to feel uneasy as she clutched her shirt.
"You okay Leaf?"
"Y-Yeah…I guess so."
"Trust me, everything will be alright," he said with a smile and led her into the living room.
Everyone stopped and looked at them with curious eyes, "so Gary, what did you want to talk to us about? Your new girlfriend?" Brock asked.
"Yes actually," he took her left hand and showed it to everyone.
"Gary Oak you are too young to get married! You're only sixteen!"
"I know Gramps, and we were going to have a kid," he said with a serious tone.
"GARY! HOW-"
"But!" He stopped Professor Oak, "Leaf had…a miscarriage…" Gary and Leaf's bangs covered their eyes.
Everyone stayed in silence with their heads down until Leaf perked up, "but don't worry! Things will get better soon!"
Gary knew she had only said that to hold back the tears that were about to come out, and held her hand, "Gramps, whether you give us your blessing or not I still love Leaf and will stay with her no matter what."
He looked at the two and said with a stern face, "if you hurt this poor girl then I will have other choice but to get you to apologize."
"I'll never hurt her Gramps," he looked straight into her eyes and kissed her, receiving 'awwes' and the likes. Misty even snapped a few pictures of them.
"So when will the wedding happen?" May asked.
"Probably in a month or two," Gary responded.
"Or it could be tomorrow!" Delia perked up. She took a hold of Leaf's wrist and dragged her outside to discuss about the wedding plans, "May! Misty! You come too, you're going to be the bridesmaids!"
Inside, the guys were pressuring Gary on about Leaf. How did they meet, what happened to the child, how someone like him even thought about settling down.
Both didn't expect this kind of reaction, but something like this just brought them closer together.
Everyone came back together after a few hours, but this time, they told them about Leaf and who she really was.
…
…
…
…
"So she's the missing Sinnoh Orbs?"
"Yes Ash," Leaf said.
"But you do know that they need to go back to the museam," Oak told them.
"But that's why I was born, to keep them safe. No one would suspect that I would be carrying them."
"And if they go back to their original state…then Leaf disappears and I can not have that in my life," Gary's eyes started to have some sadness in them.
"Alright then, we won't report her but just make sure she's safe."
"I promise Delia."
"Good! Because she's like a daughter to me despite we just met a few hours ago," she said with a smile.
"Thank you for understanding everybody, you're already like family to me," Leaf told them.
"But I still don't understand how we knew you from before," Ash said.
"Well, Uxie used it's mind erasing powers to rid the memories of me from May, Misty, Gary and all the others who were in the room. But since you, Delia, and Professor Oak weren't there you still kind of knew me. But Celebi used it's time travelling powers to make it back to the time before you all met me. Unfortunately, Celebi won't be able to use it's powers, to stop the miscarriage, for a long time because well…Arceus was already mad that Gary stepped into where Legendaries thrived and proposed to me there."
"So that's why I had this feeling I knew you!"
"You too May?" Misty asked her.
"Yeah, so I guess that explains things. It's awesome to meet you again Leaf!" As she hugged the brunette.
They all stared for what seemed like minutes, but they accepted Leaf for who she is and congratulated Gary on finally being with someone who loves him for him.
With that, they all went home leaving Leaf and Gary to think about their wedding tomorrow.
"Ready for tomorrow?"
"Yes actually, I've never worn a dress before. The one Delia showed me was…well you'll find out tomorrow!" And she ran to bed with Gary following right behind her.
Me: Done! I smell something burning even though nothing is cooking O.O
Leaf: You're weird
Me: And you're getting married!
Leaf: O/O –looks away-
Me: Was that chapter okay? I'm so sorry once again for not uploading in a while –bows-
Gary: We'll let the readers decide, nicely please
Me: Well, review if you'd like and please no flames!
Leaf: See yas!
