"Shut up! Why don't you just go and hang out with your new best friend?" Arrosa yelled and stormed off into her room, leaving behind a saddened Axew.
Summer sighed to herself and watched the Bulbasaur slam the room door. "Arossa.."
"Just give her some time, she'll come calm down eventually." said a voice behind her. Summer turned and saw Ami, the Flareon must have been visiting Rossette again.
"Oh, hello Ami.." Summer said, downcasted.
"Hello, sweetie, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I can't stand to see you girls fight amongst yourselves. Whats she so angry about anyway?" Ami asked.
"Well, a few weeks ago I met a Deino named Keir. He's so nice and gentle with me, not like most other Deino at all. We hit it off pretty soon, so I've been hanging out with him a lot, but I think Arrosa's feeling like I like him more then her.." Summer sighed again.
"Oh sweetie..maybe you should try including her."
"I'm trying, but she keeps saying she doesn't wanna be a 'third wheel.'"
"Hmm.." Ami started thinking to herself, pacing back and forth in the hall. "Maybe she's…jealous."
"Jealous? Why would she be jealous? Summer asked, a bit surprised.
"You tell me. What do you think of this 'Keir'?
"Well..he's kind..silly..brave..cute.." A blush started to appear on her cheeks.
"Ah.." Ami smiled. "You have strong feelings for this boy."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, you have a crush on him."
"I- No I don't..!" Summer quickly covered her cheeks and turned away.
"You don't have to hide it from me. I won't tell." Ami smiled sweetly as Summer turned back around, still blushing.
"I guess I do like him.."
"Arrosa must have figured this out before you and thought that you'd spend even more time with him, so now she's upset." AMi explained, Summer nodded slowly.
"What should I do then? I don't like her being angry with me.."
"Isn't it obvious?" Ami asked, Summer shook her head. "Find her a male, maybe Keir knows someone."
"You..think that'll work?" Summer asked, unsure.
"Well its not guaranteed, but its worth a try. Maybe all she need is a new friend." Ami smiled warmly, thought she wasn't much bigger then the girls, the motherly air she gave off was immense.
"Ok..I'll try to find her a new friend. I hope this works." Summer smiled.
"Good luck with finding a new male, and good luck telling Keir you're feelings.~"
Summer blushed and turned, running out of the base. "Thanks, Ami!" She yelled back, Ami smiled and waved.
It took a few minutes Summer to get to hers and Keir's usual spot, which is a big clearing in the forest near Olivine City, in it was a large Berry tree which grew numerous berries of all kinds. Humans almost never came this far out, so the there were always plenty of berries for the forest Pokemon to pick.
As Summer approached the tree, she made out Keir under the tree, he seemed to be napping.
"Hey Keir!" Summer shouted and ran to the tree.
He perked up his head and turned towards her voice. "Summer? Hey! I was just waiting for you to come so I took a little nap." He stood up and yawned, stretching also.
"Sorry to make you wait…anyway, there's something I wanna ask you." Summer walked up and sat beside him, close enough that his fur was brushing against her.
"Yea?" He turned towards her, tilting his head slightly.
"Do you have any other friends beside me?"
"Of course I do. A Larvitar, I guess you could say he's my 'Seeing eye-dog'."
"I'm no dog!" A voiced yelled, Summer turned and saw a Larvitar stomping up to them, holding a basket over his head.
"Hey Keiran! From the smell of things you must have gotten that meat I wanted." Keir said, mouth watering a bit.
"Yea, I did. And I'm not a dog." Keiran said and putt the basket down.
"Sorry sorry, I just didn't know what else to call you."
"How about 'Companion' or 'Partner'?"
"I guess I could call you that…companion it is!" Keir grinned and started eating some of the meat.
Keiran turned to Summer and checked her out. "Umm..Hey.."
A smile started to appear on her face. "Hey..you wanna meet a girl?"
"Girl? What girl?" He asked, stepping back a bit.
"She's veeery cute, friendly, and dependable." Summer's smile grew
"I..guess I could. I don't meet a lot of nice females."
"Great! Wait RIGHT here!" Summer grinned and turned, quickly making her way back to the base. When she got there she saw Ami walking out of Arrosa's room.
"Don't mind me, just had a chat with Arrosa.~ She smiled and continued on her way.
Summer peeked in the room and saw Arrosa laying on the bed. "Arrosa?" The Bulbasaur turned and looked at Summer.
"Oh..hello Summer." She sat up as Summer climbed onto the bed. "I'm sorry..I'm a bad friend.."
"Its alright..I'd probably be angry too if YOU started hanging out with someone like that."
"Friends again?" Arrosa smiled.
"No one ever said we stopped." Summer smiled back and hugged her.
"Now what brings you to my room?"
"Well…I may have found you a boyfriend."
"W-what..?!" Arrosa turned red, trying to hide her cheeks.
"Yup! A larvitar!" Summer said proudly.
"Whats his name?" Arrosa asked, still blushing.
"…I never learned his name."
"Oh.." Arrosa giggled. "You're so silly.."
Summer giggled also and grabbed Arrosa's paw, starting to drag her out of the base. "Well c'mon, they're not gonna wait forever!"
"Ok ok! But you don't gotta drag me..!"
When they to the clearing, the boys were there, waiting. Keir was washing his mouth in a nearby river while Keiran standing in front of the tree with his arms crossed. Summer walked up and pushed Arrosa in front of him, there noses touching.
"U-umm.." Keiran stared into her eyes, blushing.
"Hello.." Arrosa stared back, blushing also.
"Woah..she IS cute.." Keiran thought to himself, still staring into her eyes. "What chance do I have with a girl like THIS?" He sighed lowly.
"Something wrong?" Arrosa finally spoke up.
"Huh? Oh! No! Its nothing..!" He smiled and chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of his bashfully.
"You sure? Something usually wrong when someones sighs.."
"I'm good, just…had something on my mind."
"Oh, care to tell me?"
"its nothing..! Just something personal, anyway!.. Whats your name?" he asked, trying to change the subject.
"Arrosa!" She said happily. "Yours?"
"Keiran.."
"That's a cool name!"
"Yours is..pretty cute too.." He said and looked away, blushing harder.
"Awww, thanks!" She gave him a smile with her tongue sticking out, he chuckled and she giggled. The two soon sat under a tree and started chatting. Apparently, Keir's parent hired Keiran to look after there son, as he can't see. Since Keir can't see, they want Keiran to be his "eyes" and lead him around so that he doesn't get into to much trouble.
While those two chatted, Summer and Keir himself played by the river, while watching there two friends.
"Aren't those two just the cutest?" Summer asked as she splashed around in the river.
"I'd agree..but I can't exactly see them.." he chuckled, Summer just realized her mistake and face palmed.
"Right..silly me.."
"But..I think they're cute together, we don't meet a lot nice girls. I'm actually surprised you're so nice to me." He said and climbed out of the river, shaking himself dry.
"Huh? Why's that?" She climbed out with him.
"Most girls I meet just want me cause I'm the Prince of the Tarragon Kingdom. All they want is to be a Princess so they can get 'money,fame, and fortune'.." He explained and sighed sadly.
Summer eyes widened. "YOU'RE the Prince of the Dragon Kingdom?!" She asked and looked like she was about to bow to him.
"Well yea. Didn't you know?
"N-no..should I call you Prince Keir? Or you're highness? Or-"
"Summer! No, its alright..I just want you to call me 'Keir", my real name..this isn't gonna change anything between us, will it? I really enjoy being with you.."
She stared at him for a few seconds before smiling. "No..I..enjoy being with you too.. Besides Arrosa, you're a close friend." She scooted a bit closer to him. "And maybe..we can become more then friends.."
"Huh? Whatcha mean?" He turned towards her voice.
"Keir, I-"
"BOO!" screamed both Arrosa and Keiran, causing Summer to jolt up and fall into the river. Keir also jolted up, but didn't fall with her.
"You two…!" Summer climbed back out and glared at the laughing couple.
"Sorry, it was just too good to pass up!" Keiran said between breaths.
"Yea! You should have seen your face." Arrosa added.
"Arrosa…" Summer growled lowly, a tick mark appearing on her head.
"..Well Keiran, looks like I gotta run." Arrosa said and started backing away.
"Aww..well..maybe we'll see each other again." He smiled at her.
"I hope so…later!" She quickly turned and ran.
"Arrosa!" Summer yelled and ran after her, leaving the two guys alone.
Summer chased Arrosa to the base. She would have caught the Bulbasaur, but she locked herself in her room. Summer pounded the on the door angrily.
"You'll have to come out sometimes!"
"And YOU'LL have to get tried sometimes!" Arrosa yelled from her room.
"Oh those girls..I don't think they need my help this time." Ami said and smiled to herself. Then turned and made her way out of the base.
