"Toukie, wake up!"
I muttered under my breath and turned to my side, pulling the warm, red blanket over my shoulders. N has been acting more cheerful ever since I took the test. It turned out positive and everyone in Unova was very excited and happy, especially my mom and N's sisters. Now N has been happy and nonstop he'll talk about what we're going to do. Tsk, I know he acts like a child, but seriously, not this much! I felt his hot breath against my ear and his arm wrapped around me, bringing my body closer to his.
"N, do not yell again, I'm tired...don't you have work to do?" I asked. He sighed and nuzzled his nose on my cheek, making me giggle. N smirked and slowly moved his hand to my stomach, gently moving his fingers around.
"Gee, you're rude, I took the day off so we can go on a date to the beach, just for you and me," N whispered in my ear. I turned my head to look in his eyes.
"Really?"
"Yes, really."
"Wow...you really meant it," I whispered, seeing the blue ocean in front of us. The white, clean, soft, and warm sand under our feet felt wonderful. N smiled and grabbed my hand. We sat down near water so it only touched our feet from time to time. N was wearing plain black swimming trunks and I was wearing a blue swimming outfit, but the bottom had a small skirt with blue flowers all around it.
"Touko, what Pokémon do you have?" N asked, looking at me. I tilted my head to the side.
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know, just tell me."
" I have: Serperior, Victini, Volcarona, Reshiram, Braviary, and Samurott," I said, pulling a Poke Ball out. I looked at the red and white color shining from the sun's light, it grew in my hand and I called out the Pokémon. The Pokémon looked down at me with his red eyes, a smile on his lips. N couldn't help but laugh at my Pokémon's face. He tilted his head.
"Sam?"
"Yes Samurott, you can go in the water," I said. He nuzzled his wet nose on my cheek before running into the water, splashing around, laughing, and jumping over the waves. Samurott has been with me since I had Serperior, both were in their first stage, and are very good friends. Samurott was only an Oshawott when I found him, he was swimming around in my mom's bathtub, singing. Don't ask me why he was in it or how he got into our house, but I took care of him after that day. Cheren, Touya, and Bianca were very jealous 'cause I had a Pokémon before all of them, so we took turns taking care of him. When it was the day to start our journeys, we let him decide to stay with one of us, and he picked me.
"Hey, I brought some fruit, want some?" N asked, breaking my thoughts. I blinked before blushing.
"Sorry, I was thinking about something, and yes, I would love some!" I cheered. He grabbed my waist and picked me up, placing me on his lap.
"Don't worry, I'm not gonna do anything to you, here's some Coca Cola," N said, seeing me glare at him. Samurott ran up to me and ducked under my legs, picking me up. I squeaked as he started running towards the ocean, the water splashing from his big claws. I held on to his head, feeling his long white fur on my fingers. His mouth was open slightly and his tongue was hanging out a bit on the left, his eyes happy as a Stoutland's would be when they found a ball to play with.
"You crazy Pokémon, stop!" I yelled. He stopped when the water barely touched his stomach, and flew off his head, splashing into the cold water. I stood up, my hair plastered against my back, my bangs in my face. Samurott nuzzled his nose on my shoulder and wrapped his one arm around me, the horn on his head touching my head.
"Sam," he muttered. I couldn't help but giggle at his childish ways and hugged him back. Just then, I felt something rub my leg and I looked down to see blue eyes staring back at me. A Basculin? Wait, why is a Basculin bothering me?
"Bascu?"
I moved my hand down and moved it slowly on his wet back. He smiled, showing his sharp white teeth. N was watching the entire time with a gentle smile on his lips. Soon, he stood up and started walking towards us.
"Samurott, go get him," I whispered. He nodded his head and started running towards N, making him yelp and start running away.
"Touko, stop him!" N yelled. Samurott ducked his head down and threw N onto his back, running back towards me. He stopped a little bit back away from me and N flew into the water, face first. Basculin chuckled and swam away, going back to his own things. When N came back up, his face was a bit red, and he glared at Samurott. The water-type Pokémon laughed and licked his face, making N sigh. I giggled and wrapped my arms around him, poking his cheek.
"Come on N, let's go home before you catch a cold," I teased. He smirked and turned around. Slowly, he moved his hands to my face and pressed his lips against mine, slowly moving his left hand down to my waist. Samurott grinned as we hugged each other close. He looked over to where the ocean met with the warm sand to see someone standing on the water's edge, watching. He bore his teeth but soon made a "sam" sound and started running again towards the person. I pulled away from N, some spit going down my chin. I blushed deeply and brushed it off before going to the shore to find Samurott pinning the person down on the ground, licking his face like crazy.
"Come on Samurott, calm down, it's me! Touko, get him off me!"
I tilted my head the side, amused but at the same time confused.
"Cheren, what are you doing here?" I asked, grabbing Samurott by the snout. He snorted and shook his head, getting off of my nerdy friend and standing next to me. Cheren stood up and cleaned his wet face off with his blue shirt-like jacket.
"I need your help, some Pokémon are trapped in a cave on Twist Mountain," Cheren said, looking at me up and down slowly. N and I stared at him.
"They're trapped? How did they do that?" N asked.
"Big boulders fell, come on, let's go! And Touko, please don't make out on the beach, that's just kinda gross," Cheren teased. I smacked him before we left. Gee, I hope we can help them...
