To be forewarned, for those of you who are reading for the story itself and not the lemons. There IS a lemon in this chapter. There will be a warning before it starts in nice big bold letters, and then one letting you guys know that it's over just in case you want to skip ahead and skip the lemon.
Also note, this is my first lemon. Feedback on it will be appreciated, so hopefully I can make the next one even better.
There's your warning. Hope you enjoy the chapter.
The group finally reached the mall. As they neared it, Gardevoir took interest in the large fountain that stood in front of it. Sure, it was nothing that she hadn't already seen before. But for some reason, it looked more beautiful now than it did before. And she didn't know why that was.
The fountain was quite large. It was like a giant stone pool. But in the center, on a giant stone pedestal stood stone versions of Latias and Latios. The two Pokémon were adjacent of one another, with a large wave surrounding them.
Brennan glanced over at Gardevoir and saw all of her attention had been placed on the fountain. A small smile crossed his face.
"You know, if you drop a penny in there you can make a wish." Brennan said, getting Gardevoir to look at him and tilt her head in curiosity. Brennan stopped walking and dug his hand into his pocket, fishing around for a loose piece of change.
Gardevoir watched him, as he pulled two pennies out of his pocket and stepped towards the fountain. He looked back at her and motioned her over with his head. She floated next to him and looked into the water. Something she hadn't noticed from the distance were the hundreds of pennies lying on the small blue tiles at the bottom of the fountain.
"Hold out your hand." Brennan said. Gardevoir listened and held out her right hand. Brennan gently sat one of the pennies into it. Gardevoir stared at it, before looking back at Brennan. "Now, all you have to do is toss it in there." He said. Gardevoir nodded, before closing her eyes.
A wish? Before Gardevoir met Brennan, she wished for a lot of things. Gothitelle's return, food to eat that she didn't have to fight for, a warm place to live that wasn't inside of a cave, to somehow become more beautiful. But, after Brennan came into her life, he gave her all of those things. Except Gothitelle, which, he couldn't do anything about.
Brennan took care of her. He cared for her. He made sure she didn't go hungry. He gave her a warm place to live. And... he made her feel beautiful. Gardevoir really didn't feel like there was anything left for her to wish for. Brennan was already in her in life.
Brennan smiled, as he tossed his penny into the fountain. He hadn't noticed that Gardevoir tossed hers at the exact same time. A small smile formed on Gardevoir's face, as she stood there, eyes closed, thinking about how much her life had changed in just the last month.
She slowly opened her eyes and looked over at Brennan, who was just staring into the fountain. He looked over at Gardevoir and saw her staring at him. They couldn't help but just smile at each other.
"Guys lets goooooo!" Luna called from the doorway of the mall. Both Brennan and Gardevoir held eye contact for several more seconds, before finally turning towards the others.
As they made their way towards them, Gardevoir grabbed onto Brennan's hand. He looked over at her and saw the cute, innocent smile on her face that he had really grown to love. He squeezed her hand in response.
Once they finally made it to the group, they started to head into the mall, when Lane stopped them.
"Wait," he started, looking at Brennan. "Brennan, the one Pokémon rule." He said. Brennan had been so caught up in his moment with Gardevoir, he forgot that he technically had two Pokémon out.
"Crap." He muttered in annoyance, before shaking his head. He looked over at Gardevoir, who looked somewhat confused. "The mall has this rule where each trainer is only allowed to have one Pokémon out with them while inside." He explained. Gardevoir nodded in understanding.
Brennan looked up at Blaziken, who immediately went wide eyed. He waved his hands out in front of him, before giving Brennan an annoyed look.
"Blaziken. Blaze." He said, as he shook his head. Delphox immediately stood in front of him, with a somewhat worried expression on her face.
"Don't worry. I'm not putting you in your ball." Brennan said, calming both Pokémon down. Gardevoir let go of Brennan's hand, fearing where he was going with this. Brennan looked back at her, feeling scared as he did. "Hey, you don't have to worry either." He said, trying to ease her worry.
"So what are you going to do?" Lane asked. Brennan thought a minute, before shrugging.
"Nothing." He replied. No one knew what he meant. "They're both well behaved and know how to act in public. If someone wants to throw us out, whatever." He continued, before grabbing back ahold of Gardevoir's hand and walking her to the door. He grabbed the door, and pulled it open, allowing Gardevoir to walk into the mall. "You guys coming?" He asked. Luna and Lane looked at each other, before heading inside.

As the group walked around the large mall, Gardevoir was left in awe at all about everything that was in there. There were more stores in there than she had ever seen before. Most of them being clothes stores that she knew Luna was going to take her to.
Brennan let out a little chuckle as he watched Gardevoir and her childlike excitement. It was cute. He stopped chuckling when he noticed two men standing close by, staring at her and muttering something to each other. His smile turned into a glare, which the two men noticed. They both quickly looked away from them.
The way these people acted towards Gardevoir made Brennan mad. She was out trying to have fun, and these people wouldn't leave her alone. The way they muttered to each other, or stared at her. They made her feel uncomfortable- unwanted, and Brennan hated it.
"Oh, I see our first stop!" Luna exclaimed, as she pointed to the same little boutique that her and Delphox had gone in last time they were all in the mall together. "You're going to love this place, Gardevoir." She said, excitedly, as she looked back at Gardevoir with a smile.
Gardevoir, who was still trying to take in her surroundings, looked at Luna with a smile. She was getting more and more excited about this, and it made Brennan happy seeing her happy.
"Voir." Gardevoir said, happily.
"Lane, if you aren't coming in, can you and Greninja watch our bags?" Luna asked, looking over at her boyfriend and his companion.
"What, all ten thousand of them?" Lane asked sarcastically. Luna rolled her eyes.
"I will take that as a yes." She replied. "We'll try not to take too long." She continued, before turning and headed towards the boutique.
Delphox grabbed the bags that Blaziken had been carrying, and tossed them over to Lane and Greninja's feet, before grabbing his arm and pulling him towards the store.
Brennan looked at Lane and shrugged, before setting his bags down in the pile. After, he turned his attention to Gardevoir, who looked very eager to check the store out.
"After you." He said, motioning for her to go first. She smiled and nodded, before floating ahead. Brennan followed behind her.
Lane and Greninja watched the pair disappear into the store. After they were out of sight, Lane sighed.
"So... how many bags do you think they're going to bring out of here?" He asked.
"Gre-ninja." Greninja replied.

Simon had made his way into the mall and had been following the group around. He was currently sitting on a bench two stores down and on the opposite side of the store that they were currently in. He had a pair of black sunglasses on and was pretending to read a newspaper.
He knew Nelson wanted him to keep watch and not do anything until he got there, but he was trying to think of a quick and easy way to get that Gardevoir. He knew with how extensive the group she was with was, if he didn't think of something, it wasn't going to be easy to do.
He looked down at his watch, wondering where in the hell Nelson was. He was starting to grow very annoyed with his "partner."
He very discreetly looked past his newspaper to see if they had come out of the store yet. They hadn't.
Finally, after sitting there for close to ten minutes, Nelson finally walked up and sat down on the opposite side of the bench.
"Where is it?" Nelson asked, not making any sort of eye contact with Simon.
"She went into that store right over there with a guy, a girl, a Delphox, and a Blaziken. The guy standing outside and that Greninja he has with them are in their group too." Simon explained, still pretending to read through the paper he had in his hands.
"That many people in one group? Christ this is going to be a lot more trouble than its worth." Nelson said in annoyance.
"So here's what I was thinking we could do-" Simon started, before Nelson cut him off.
"-I don't give a damn what you think. My main focus is getting that Gardevoir." Nelson started, before grabbing at one of the Poké balls on his belt. "You can do what you want. But I'm getting this done." He continued.
"Don't do that. You were worried about me doing something to mess everything up. But you're getting ready to attack them in the middle of a busy mall?" Simon said curiously. He seriously did not understand Nelson's way of thinking.
"Yeah, I was worried about you messing something up because you would. Me, on the other hand, actually knows what to do to get things done." Nelson started, glancing over at Simon. "Besides, I'm not worried about a Greninja, or a Blaziken, or a Delphox, or whatever other kind of weak and pathetic Pokémon those runts have. My Pokémon are professionally trained monsters that aren't going to lose to a bunch of weak, pathetic, and mediocre losers." He continued. He sure was full of himself, that's for sure.
"How about turning your ego down for a second, and stop to think about what you would cause if you attacked them right now." Simon said. Nelson didn't seem too amused with what Simon had just said.
"Well, since you obviously know so much more than me, do you have any better ideas?" He asked. The sarcasm very present in his voice.
"Yeah, actually I do have an idea. It may not work, but it's worth a shot." Simon replied. One of the major differences between Simon and Nelson, is that Simon is more of thinking than a 'rush in an attack' kind of guy. At least he is after almost losing an eye the way he did.
"If it may not work, then why the hell should we waste time trying it?" Nelson asked.
"Because, even if it doesn't work, it'll show us how close the Gardevoir is to that trainer she's with. That could be some crucial information we need to know about before we jump in with an attack." Simon replied. Nelson hummed in annoyance. He didn't want to admit it, but he knew Simon was probably on to something. He knew that whatever Simon had planned probably wasn't going to work, but, before they jumped in for the attack, they needed to find out more about this trainer that somehow managed to gain Gardevoir's trust.
"Fine. But, if you fuck this up somehow, I'll kill you before the boss can." Nelson said, in a dark, threatening tone. Simon didn't take too kind to Nelson's threat.
Instead of replying, he stood up and shoved his paper to Nelson's chest.
"Wait here. I'll be back." Simon said, before walking off towards a nearby costume shop. Nelson shook his head when he saw this.
"Fucking idiot." He muttered to himself.

Brennan followed Gardevoir and Luna around the small shop, as they happily looked through everything they could.
His arms were already full of things they had picked out. It was insane how much shopping Luna could do.
"Uh... don't you think this is enough stuff?" Brennan asked in a somewhat joking manner, as he followed the two females over to a rack of clearance tops.
"You can never have enough clothes!" Luna replied, happily. Brennan playfully rolled his eyes in response.
Did he necessarily care for having to carry around a mountain of clothes? No. But, he didn't mind it either. Gardevoir was enjoying herself, and that's all that Brennan really cared about.
He stood there, a small smile on his face, as he watched the two ladies dig through the rack of clothes. Gardevoir was all smiles. She was happy... and Brennan was happy because of that.
"Oh, this is cute, Gardevoir." Luna said, pulling a white shirt, with red going along the top to the shoulders. On the front in black letters is said 'Trainer's Little Troublemaker.' It was obviously a shirt that was supposed to be taken as a joke.
Gardevoir let out a cute little giggle, as she took the shirt from Luna's hands. She looked over at Brennan, showing him the shirt as she did. He let out a little chuckle of his own.
"You're right, it is cute." He said, looking over at Luna, who smiled and nodded.
"Gardevoir, how about you go and try it on, and while you're doing that, I'll look around for another minute. I know you're probably wanting to get out of here." Luna said, looking from Gardevoir, to Brennan.
"It's no big deal, honestly. I'm not in a hurry." Brennan replied.
"Regardless, we should probably move on to the next store anyway, before I spend all of my money." Luna said, letting out a little giggle as she did.
"Well, I mean, you're probably right about that one." Brennan said, jokingly, a small sly grin forming on his face. Luna playfully shoved him in response.
"Quiet you." She said. Brennan chuckled. "Okay, Gardevoir, you can go see if that fits. Let me know." She continued, looking back at Gardevoir. Gardevoir nodded.
"Voir." She replied.
She looked over at Brennan, as Luna went back to looking around. The changing room was in the back of the store, and Gardevoir didn't really feel comfortable going by herself. Luna had been going with her, but this time, she wasn't going to.
"You want me to walk back there with you?" Brennan asked. Gardevoir sheepishly nodded in response. She was slightly embarrassed that she felt so uncomfortable that she even had to ask Brennan to walk back there with her. But at the same time, she didn't. It was a weird in-between feeling for her.
Brennan followed behind Gardevoir as she floated towards the dressing room. As they walked through the store, they passed by Blaziken and Delphox. Brennan noticed that Blaziken still looked less than enthused to being dragged around and forced to carry clothes. But what was funny to him, was that Blaziken hadn't complained yet.
Blaziken looked over and saw Brennan looking at him. He gave him a quick scowl, before looking away. Brennan sighed, before looking straight again. This whole thing with Blaziken was still bothering him. But he still hadn't been able to come up with a way to apologize to him.
Gardevoir stopped floating, when she felt Brennan's sadness again. Brennan, who had been lost in thought, ran into her back, bringing him back down to earth.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Gardevoir." Brennan apologized. Gardevoir turned around and shook her head. She had a sad look on her face, and Brennan was wondering why. "What's wrong?" He asked, now feeling even more down.
"Gardevoir. Voir. Gardevoir." Gardevoir replied. With her tone, Brennan could tell she was worried again. He figured she was probably worried about him again. A smile formed on his face. He was trying to reassure Gardevoir that he was okay.
"It's okay, Gardevoir. I promise, alright?" Brennan said. Gardevoir stared at him for several seconds, before nodding. She could tell something was wrong. She knew his smile was just to mask his sadness. So she wanted to do something that would cheer him up. She hated seeing him sad.
Gardevoir turned back around and continued floating towards the changing rooms. She was now determined to come up with a way to make Brennan happy again. Her hug seemed to work this morning, but she wasn't sure if it would work again.
Once they reached the changing rooms, Gardevoir turned back towards Brennan.
"I'll be right out here, don't worry." Brennan assured her. Gardevoir nodded, before heading back inside of the same small room that she had already been in at least a dozen times.
As Gardevoir walked back into the small room, she closed the surprisingly thick door behind her. She hung the shirt on the small hook on the door, before turning around to pull the top of her dress down.
As she did, she saw the long mirror hanging on the wall across from the door. She had to deal with seeing her reflection in it every time she had been in there.
As much as she still disliked her body, she couldn't help but think back to the things Brennan had said outside of that shop. He didn't use her name, but Gardevoir knew that he was talking about her. The more she had thought about it, she decided that he had to have been talking about her. She was beautiful, Brennan had told her so. Brennan's opinion was the only one that mattered to her. No one else's, just Brennan's.
Gardevoir grabbed the top of her dress and gently pulled it down. She did feel a little awkward stripping in such a public place. The fact that she was in a busy mall, with her breasts hanging out made her feel uncomfortable.
Trying to ignore the way she felt, Gardevoir turned back around and grabbed the shirt off of the hook. She put it on, before turning back around to face the mirror. It was a little tight, and definitely brought out her features. But at the same time, her spike was much more cramped than usual. She liked the shirt, but she knew she would have to find a way to allow her spike room to breath.
She turned to her side to get a better look at the way the shirt looked from different angles. She frowned at the way her spike was stretching out the fabric. She felt like her spike did more harm than good. The only thing that she could wear that it didn't ruin was her dress. She shook her head, before pulling the shirt back off and pulling her dress back up.
She grabbed the shirt, before exiting the changing room. Brennan was still standing there waiting like he said he would be. The annoyance Gardevoir had been feeling vanished like it was never there when she saw him.
"So, did it fit?" Brennan asked. Gardevoir looked down at the shirt, before looking back up at him.
"Voir. Gardevoir. Garde." She replied, as she pointed at her spike. Brennan looked down at it, causing Gardevoir to slightly blush with how close it was to her breasts.
"Don't worry. I know how we can take care of that." Brennan said. Gardevoir was unsure what he meant. Brennan could tell she was confused. "It's simple. We cut a hole in the shirt just big enough for your spike to pop through." He explained. Gardevoir was a little unsure. She didn't want to ruin the shirt by cutting it. With the unsure sure look she had, Brennan could tell why she had it. "Don't worry, it won't ruin the shirt. I promise." He said, a reassuring smile in his face. That made Gardevoir feel better. His promises always made her feel better, because he never broke them.
The two made their way back to Luna, who was now closing in on the register.
"So, did it fit?" Luna asked, once she saw two.
"It did. It's just, her spike was giving her some problems, so I'm going to make some adjustments to the shirt." Brennan replied, answering for her.
"Like cutting a whole in it so her spike sticks out?" Luna asked.
"Bingo." Brennan replied.
"That's not a bad idea." Luna said, giving him an approving nod.
"So, is that it?" Brennan asked.
"Yep! Just waiting on Delphox and Blaziken to get up here." Luna replied.
They turned around and saw the pair approaching them. And what little of Blaziken's face they could see, he didn't look too amused with how much stuff he was having to carry.
"Do you need some help with that, Blaziken?" Brennan asked. Blaziken huffed in response, as he approached the counter and dropped everything onto it.
Luna gave Brennan a questioning look, confused as to why Blaziken was acting the way he was. Brennan noticed and shook his head.
"It doesn't matter right now." He replied, knowing exactly why she was giving him that look.
After Blaziken dropped off Delphox's clothes, he walked out of the store, leaving the group standing there watching him as he left. Delphox grew just as confused as Luna had been.
"Delphox?" Delphox asked, looking towards Brennan. Luna had her Pokémon long enough to know she was distressed by this.
"It's okay, Delphox. He probably just needs to be alone for a couple of minutes." Luna said, patting her Pokémon on the back. Delphox pouted. She had been enjoying her time with Blaziken. She was wondering if she had done something wrong.
Without wasting anymore time, she headed for the door. She was going to go find Blaziken.
"Delphox, wait!" Luna called to her Pokémon, but Delphox didn't stop. Luna sighed, watching her Pokémon walk away.
"Hey, ya know what they say, follow your heart." Brennan said, stepping up next to Luna, watching as Delphox exited the store. Luna looked over at him.
"Since when have you been such a romantic?" She asked. Brennan shrugged.
"I don't know. Honestly." He replied. He couldn't help but glance back at Gardevoir as he did. He wasn't sure why he did it though, he just felt he needed to.
Brennan watched as Gardevoir helped the young, overwhelmed cashier organize their insanely large amount of stuff. She was always so thoughtful. She never put herself above anyone else, even if they treated her wrong. She had a heart of gold, and she deserved to be cherished.
"Come on, lets help them." Luna said, breaking Brennan from his thoughts. He nodded, before following her back over to the counter to help the females go through the clothes.

After they managed to sort everything out and get everything paid for, they headed out of the store with their at least two dozen bags.
They walked out and saw Lane and Greninja standing exactly where they left them. Lane went wide eyed when he saw the ludicrous amount of bags in their hands.
"Jeez. Did you guys buy enough stuff?" He asked.
"Nope." Luna replied, knowing full well she was going to annoy her boyfriend with her response.
"Babe, look at this madness. I think you have a shopping problem." Lane said, motioning around at all the bags he and Greninja had already been guarding. Luna took offense to that.
"I do not have a shopping problem. Not all of this stuff is mine." She said, defensively. "There are things for Delphox, Gardevoir, Delcatty, Spinda, Ninetails, Alakazam, Duskull, Aggron, there's a little something for everyone in these bags. I even got a few things for you." She continued, before pouting, crossing her arms, and turning away from him. Lane looked over at Brennan and Gardevoir, who put their hands out in front of them letting him know that this didn't involve them.
Lane sighed before walking up behind his girlfriend and putting his hands on her shoulders.
"Look, Luna, I'm sorry. Okay?" Lane said.
"Okay!" Luna exclaimed, her cheerful attitude returning as if it hadn't gone anywhere to begin with. She turned around and wrapped her arms around the confused Lane.
"Wait a minute. Did you just-" Lane started, before being cut off.
"-Yep!" Luna exclaimed. A small smirk grew on Lane's face. He had to admit, the way she got him to walk into that apology was impressive.
"Okay, that was good. But, either way, I mean, you've bought a lot of stuff already. And I'm not trying to offend you or hurt your feelings by saying that." Lane said. Luna sighed.
"No, no. You're right. How about this, I have one more stop to make. After that, I won't buy anything else." She said.
"Okay. I'm curious though, is that one more stop where I think it is?" Lane asked. Luna shrugged, giving Lane her 'playing dumb' look.
"I don't know. Is it?" She said, curiously. A small smirk forming on her face. A grin grew on Lane's face.
Brennan and Gardevoir looked at each other, not knowing what this other place was. But they figured they were about to find out.
"Okay, then lets get going!" Lane exclaimed, now in a hurry to move on.
"Wait, wait. Where are Blaziken and Delphox?" Brennan asked, as he looked around. Luna and Gardevoir quickly joined in.
"Blaziken walked off that way. When Delphox came out, I pointed her in that direction. Oh, and what do you know, that store just so happens to be down there, too, so we can find them on the way." Lane said, pointing the group in the direction of the missing Pokémon. Luna nodded.
"Okay. But you do know you shouldn't have let either one of them leave, right?" She said, curiously.
"Luna, I'm sure they didn't leave the mall. Besides, they know how to take care of themselves." Lane said. Luna was hoping he was right.
The group grabbed their ridiculous number of shopping bags, before heading in the direction Lane pointed in.

Delphox had been walking around the large, busy mall trying to find Blaziken. She didn't know where he could have gotten off to so fast. She knew she shouldn't have left Luna, but she needed to find Blaziken.
She walked around, trying not to go too far away from the store they had just left. She didn't want to worry Luna too much.
She walked around for a good minute and a half, before she finally saw Blaziken leaned against a wall with his arms crossed and an annoyed look on his face. He wasn't too far away, so she knew she could get to him. She started to approach him, when a Zoroark walked up and stepped in her way.
He had a seduction filled smirk on his face, as he looked Delphox up and down. He put his paw against the wall they were standing by, playing it as cool as possible.
The Zoroark had his long red and black spiked hair pulled into a ponytail. His black chest and shoulder fur was more spiked out than a normal Zoroark would have it. And his smokey-grey fur was shiny and clean.
Delphox stared at him for several seconds, not knowing what to do. One thing she noticed about him was the armband he was wearing on his right arm. The logo was small, so she couldn't make out what it was with the way he was standing.
"Zoro-ark." He finally spoke. His voice was laced with seduction. It matched the smirk he had on his face. Delphox slightly blushed at the compliment she had received from him. She didn't get flirted with too often, so it kinda felt nice, but at the same time it made her feel slightly uncomfortable. "Zoroark. Zoroark. Zoro?" He sang, before taking Delphox's paw into his and placing a soft kiss on the back of it. Delphox face turned even more red than before.
Brennan, Gardevoir, Lane, Luna, and Greninja had made it to the other side of the mall. As they walked, they saw Blaziken leaned against a wall through the crowed of people.
"There's Blaziken. But Delphox isn't with him." Brennan said. Luna looked in the direction he had pointed to, and noticed the lone Blaziken standing there. She started to grow very worried that Delphox got lost, or something had happened to her.
"I thought you said she went in the same direction as him?!" Luna asked, panic in her voice.
"She did. I promise you she did." Lane said, now a little worried himself.
"It's okay, Luna. Calm down. We'll find her." Brennan said, trying to calm her down. "We'll just go ask Blaziken if he's seen her. Everything will be fine." He continued. Luna's face was still full of worry, but she reluctantly nodded knowing that everything WOULD be fine. Or at least, that's what she kept telling herself.
The group made it through the crowed and approached Blaziken. He had his eyes closed, showing no interest in his surroundings. When he heard footsteps approaching him, he opened his eyes to see who it was.
"Blaziken, have you seen Delphox?" Brennan asked. Blaziken stood there staring at his trainer in silence for several seconds. Brennan shook his head. "Please, Blaziken, we need to know if you've seen her." He pleaded with his Pokémon to tell them.
Blaziken could tell that they were worried with the way Brennan sounded and the way Luna looked. Gardevoir and Lane were trying to ease her worry. He was getting ready to speak, when he noticed something over Brennan's shoulder.
Standing against the wall opposite of them was Delphox, but she wasn't alone. A Zoroark stood there with a paw on the wall and a smirk on his face. He was swooning Delphox. Blaziken growled at the sight. Confused, Brennan turned around to see what he was looking at.
"Uh oh." Brennan said, causing the others to turn around. Blaziken shoved through the group and started storming over the Delphox and Zoroark.
"Blaziken, wait!" Brennan called, trying to stop his Pokémon, but he ignored him.
Blaziken stormed over to the Zoroark, shoved him backwards a few feet, and stepped in between him and Delphox.
"Zoroark?!" Zoroark asked, confused and annoyed by the sudden assault.
"Blaziken. Blaziken. Blaze-I-ken." Blaziken said, motioning back at Delphox as he did. Delphox stood behind him, not sure of what to do.
"Zoroark. Zoro." Zoroark said, pointing towards Delphox. Blaziken growled again, before clenching his fists.
"Blaziken. Blaziken. Blaziken!" Blaziken exclaimed, angrily glaring holes through Zoroark. Zoroark stood there glaring right back at Blaziken for several seconds. He looked past him and back at Delphox, flashing her a quick smile, which annoyed Blaziken even more.
"Zoroark. Zoroark." Zoroark said, glancing back at Blaziken. He waved Blaziken off, deciding that he wasn't worth his time, before walking off. Blaziken continued to glare at him as he disappeared into the crowd.
Brennan, Gardevoir, Lane, Luna, and Greninja approached the pair-having witnessed everything that just happened.
"Delphox, are you okay?" Luna asked, worryingly. Delphox flashed her a smile, before nodding.
"~Del-phox~" She crooned, before hugging Blaziken from behind. A few small hearts emanated off of her, as she raised one of her legs off of the floor. Blaziken stood there with his arms crossed, still annoyed at Zoroark.
Delphox knew that Blaziken was never one to openly show his feelings. For a long time she wasn't sure if he liked her back or not. She knew he always got nervous and embarrassed around her, but she figured that was just because of the way she flirted with him. But after this, seeing how jealous he got. Seeing how protective he got of her. She knew she had been right to believe that he did indeed feel the same way for her that she did him. Not only that, but the way he scared the Zoroark off really turned her on.
"Aww, how cute!" Luna exclaimed, her smile finally returning to her face.
Gardevoir thought it was cute too. She couldn't help but glance over at Brennan, wondering if he would get as jealous as Blaziken did if someone was to hit on her. She knew that wasn't really something she should be thinking about, but she honestly couldn't help it.
"So... I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the store you were looking for is... that one." Brennan said, breaking Gardevoir from her thoughts. She turned around and saw a large purple and white sign in cursive letters. The sign was for a store called 'Veronica's Secret.' Lane was practically bouncing up and down like an excited child walking into a toy store.
"Yep. That's the one." Luna replied, looking up at the sign about the entrance. "Oh, before I go in there, there was something I wanted to ask you." She continued, turning her attention to Brennan. He nodded.
"Ask away." He said. Luna grabbed his arm and pulled him to the side of the group. Brennan was confused as to why she did that. "What's up?" He asked.
"Okay. I didn't want to ask in front of the group, because I didn't want to embarrass Gardevoir." Luna replied. Brennan didn't know what she was getting at, but he was kind of curious. "I wanted to ask you first since she's your Pokémon, but I was wondering if I could take Gardevoir in there with me and get her some underwear and bra's?" She asked. Brennan's cheeks burned bright red at the question. He had been wondering if Luna had noticed Gardevoir's features. But from her question, she obviously had. I mean, he knew it would have been hard for her to miss, but she just hadn't said anything like he figured she would have. "I just thought maybe if she had some to wear, it would make her feel less uncomfortable in public. And maybe keep pervs from getting any funny ideas." She said. The last part really got Brennan's attention.
He didn't even have to say anything for Luna to understand how mad just the thought of what she had just said made Brennan. He was protective of his Pokémon, and she knew that.
Brennan knew that if anyone ever tried anything funny with Gardevoir, Office Jenny would have to come put him in cuffs and drag him away just to get him to stop pummeling someone's face in.
"You know what, go ahead. I think that's a good idea." Brennan finally said, realizing that that was indeed a good idea. Luna smiled and nodded. "Besides, maybe she'd be more comfortable buying those kinds of things with you than she would be me." He continued.
"Lets hope." Luna said.
Brennan and Luna rejoined the now smaller group. Delphox had already dragged Blaziken into the store with her, not bothering to wait for Luna. Brennan once again grew slightly embarrassed about Luna's question when he looked at Gardevoir.
"Okay, Gardevoir, I want you to come in here with me." Luna said. Gardevoir looked at her, before looking back at Brennan.
"I'm going... to uh-sit this one out." Brennan said, Gardevoir frowned.
"It's okay, Gardevoir. This is more of a girls store than anything. Besides, it'll give us some time to chat!" Luna exclaimed, happily. Gardevoir liked Luna, but she also didn't want to be without Brennan.
"Don't worry, I'll be right out here if you need me." Brennan reassured her. Gardevoir really didn't want to go in there without him, she just felt so much better with him being around her. But alas, she decided to go along with it.
He said it was more of a store for girls, so she figured that's why he wasn't going to come in with them. She knew he wasn't going to go anywhere without her, so she didn't have to worry about him leaving her. Or, at least she hoped she didn't have to worry about him leaving her.
Gardevoir stared at Brennan for several more seconds, before finally nodding. Luna smiled as she took her hand.
"Come on, it'll be fun!" She said, happily. Gardevoir kept her eyes on Brennan, as Luna pulled her towards the store. Brennan saw how unsure Gardevoir looked, so he gave her another reassuring smile to try and make her feel better.
Its not like Brennan didn't want to go in there with them. It's just, like he told Luna, Gardevoir would probably be more comfortable shopping for underwear with another girl and without him around. Besides, he knew that that store wasn't too big, and even if it was, Luna was there with her. So it's not like she was in there by herself.
He was just worried for her out in public. Especially with the way everyone treats her. Acting like she's some kind of freak or something. It made him worry that someone would try something. He hated to think that way, but he had every right to. He didn't know what people would do in this day and age.

Gardevoir gingerly floated behind Luna as they walked through the store. Gardevoir quickly caught onto what this store sold. All of the mannequins had bras, panties, and lingerie on them. She looked down at herself realizing that even the mannequins had better bodies than her. She frowned.
"Okay, Gardevoir, we're going to get you some bras and panties to wear under your new clothes." Luna said, as she looked at the selection. "Now, first things first, I need to find out your bra size." She continued, turning and looking straight at Gardevoir's chest. Gardevoir blushed and folded her arms over her breasts. "No, it's okay, Gardevoir. I don't mean to embarrass you, I'm just trying to see if I can make a close guess." She explained.
Gardevoir still felt slightly embarrassed. She knew Luna meant no harm, but still. She didn't like people staring at her breasts.
"I know how you feel. I don't like people staring at my breasts either. I get mad when Lane does it." Luna said with a slight giggle at the end, as if she somehow read Gardevoir's mind.
Luna's breasts were just slightly bigger than Gardevoir's, that's why she figured she could just make an estimated guess on the size.
"So... how about we try a... 34C?" Luna said, as she looked for the size bra she had just mentioned. As she looked through the racks, Gardevoir looked around, taking in all the stores merchandise.
She floated towards a display with lingerie on it towards the back of the store. She stared up at the lacy-red, and very sexualized and revealing bra and panties combination on the mannequin.
She started wondering if women wore that stuff just to wear it, or if they wore it for a specific reason. The thought of her wearing it took over her mind. Her breasts being pushed up, making them seem bigger than they actually were. The small panties just big enough to cover her front, but small enough to barley exist on the back. The sheer stockings running up her thin, white legs, with the silky red straps connecting them to the bottom of the panties.
Then she imagined... what if she was wearing them for Brennan. An embarrassed blush formed on her face, as she imaged Brennan walking towards her, putting his hands on her hips, pulling her close to him, feeling his warm breath on her skin...
"Hey, Gardevoir, I found one I think you'll like!" Luna called, breaking Gardevoir from her thoughts. She stood there staring at the lingerie, her blush slightly fading as she came back down to reality.
She was thinking too far now. Her feelings were starting to go past the point of being possible. She sighed, before turning around and floating back over to Luna.

Blaziken was currently standing outside one of the changing rooms waiting for Delphox. She had gone inside to try something on. He wasn't even paying too much attention to know what it was.
He looked around, feeling slightly awkward as he stood there. The place wasn't too busy, which was a good thing.
She had already been in there for several minutes, Blaziken didn't know what the heck she was doing. He heard some noises inside, before the door slightly opened.
Delphox peaked out, and motioned Blaziken to come over. He looked around again, the same emptiness was still there. He took a few steps towards the changing room. Once he was close enough, Delphox opened the door and pulled him in.
(WARNING: LEMON START)
Blaziken stood there surprised, watching Delphox as she closed and locked the door back.
"Blazi-" Blaziken was asking, before Delphox put a finger to his mouth, shushing him. Blaziken was even more confused now.
Delphox gave him a seductive smile, before lifting up her fur skirt. Blaziken's eyes watched as she held it up, revealing her panty covered lower half underneath. Blaziken gulped, before his eyes ran back up her body. She was staring directly at him.
She slowly grabbed the panties with one of her paws and started pushing them down. Blaziken's eyes ran back down below, as her black panties fell to the floor. He was now staring at her bare vagina. It didn't take much for him to start getting hard. Delphox smiled as she watched his now hard member appear from his large amount of fur. She licked her snout.
She slowly stepped towards Blaziken, placing her paws on his shoulders and pulling herself against him when she was close enough. Blaziken stared down at her, still not sure of what to do.
Delphox's seductive smile grew, as she pulled Blaziken's head down and pressed her snout against his beak. Blaziken's eyes grew wide as Delphox pushed her tongue into his mouth.
His hands slowly lifted from his sides, grabbing ahold of Delphox's hips. Delphox let out a slight moan, causing Blaziken to wrap his arms around her, pressing her as close to him as he could.
She slowly broke away from the kiss, staring up at Blaziken with her still present smile. She lowered herself down to her knees, becoming face to face with Blaziken's erect penis.
Blaziken stared down at her as she gently grabbed it and moved it towards her mouth. He let out a surprised gasp and fell back against the back wall of the changing room when she took the whole thing into her mouth all at once.
A loud slurping sound was made when she pulled it out, a string of saliva running from it to her snout. She quickly put the tip back in, slowly bobbing back and fourth, going deeper and deeper each time. Blaziken felt his legs getting weak, the pleasure almost being too much.
Delphox lapped her tongue around him on her next big bob. Blaziken had to cover his beak to keep himself from moaning too loud. Delphox smiled up at him as she ran her tongue along him. She held the full length in her mouth for several seconds, running her tongue all along it as she held it. She eventually went back to bobbing her head.
Blaziken closed his eyes tight, enjoying every bit of pleasure that was coursing through him.
Delphox's slurps continued, as she continued to quickly bob her head back and forth, running her paw along whatever wasn't in her mouth.
Blaziken's knees bent, his legs growing weaker and weaker the better the pleasure got.
Delphox noticed this, and ran her free paw down her body and to her vagina. She ran her fingers up and down against her entrance, her juices dripping out onto the floor below. She let out a moan that muffled by Blaziken's member still being in her mouth.
Blaziken looked down, watching her as she plunged her fingers inside of herself. Her eyes traveled up to meet his as she continued both fingering herself and sucking his member.
She plunged her fingers as deep inside of her as they would go, as she once again took Blaziken's full length down her throat. She let out a short moan, that was interrupted by a gag.
She backed her head up, removing Blaziken from her mouth. Tears in her eyes and saliva dripping from her snout. She pulled her fingers out of her honeypot, more of her juices following.
Blaziken motioned for her to stand up. She listened. Once she was back to her feet he grabbed her head and pulled her in for another kiss. Their tongues wrestled around with each other, trying to enforce dominance over the other.
As Blaziken held the kiss, he ran one of his hands down her body, giving her breasts a slight massage as he did. Delphox let out a moan right into Blaziken's mouth.
He moved his hands down her body, finally making it to her dripping entrance. He ran two of his fingers against her slit, before pushing them inside. Delphox broke away from the kiss and buried her face into Blaziken's chest to muffle her moan.
Blaziken pumped his fingers inside of her, picking up his pace the tighter she held onto his fur. Her muffled moans being the only noise he was paying attention to.
He used his free hand to once again grab ahold of her face. He made her look up at him, before bringing her in for another kiss. The way she moaned into his mouth just made him start pumping his fingers even faster.
Just like Blaziken previously, Delphox felt her legs getting weak because of the pleasure. She tightly gripped onto Blaziken's fur to hold herself up.
The way Blaziken's fingers were getting soaked inside of her made him somehow grow even more hard than he already was. He wanted to pump them faster, but he couldn't. He was going as fast as he could.
They separated from their kiss, and Delphox once again buried her face in his fur, muffling her moans.
Blaziken moved his free hand down her back and to her butt. He gave it a quick pinch, causing Delphox to shiver against him and let out another moan.
That moan was what did it for Blaziken. He NEEDED to be inside of her. He pulled his fingers out of her and scooped her up by her legs. He turned around and pinned her back first against the wall as he held her up.
Delphox let out a light squeak in surprise at the quick motion. She had zero time to process it, before Blaziken once again kissed her. As he kissed her, he grabbed his throbbing member and aimed it towards her entrance. Once he found it, he slowly started rubbing her slit, teasing her, before finally pushing himself inside.
Delphox let out a moan louder than the ones before hand as she felt Blaziken's length enter her. Luckily, their kiss muffled the moan.
Blaziken slowly started pumping himself in and out in a slow rhythmic pattern; pushing himself deeper with each thrust.
Delphox broke away from the kiss yet again, staring Blaziken in the eyes with a glossy look. She buried her face into his neck, before letting out another moan. Feeling her moan against him prompted Blaziken to quicken his thrusts.
As he quickened his pace, he could feel Delphox digging her claws into his skin. He nuzzled on her neck, taking in her scent as he did. She wrapped her legs around his waist, allowing him to run one arm up her back, and rest the other underneath her butt.
The feeling of pure bliss was once again making Blaziken's leg grow weak. This pleasure was like nothing he had ever felt before. Delphox felt the same way.
His thrusts had become so consistent, that at this point, he was pumping his whole length in and out of her. Her moans were becoming louder and louder with each thrust. She bit into his neck just enough to quiet her moans. Again, Blaziken didn't care. It actually sent more pleasure coursing through his body.
Delphox was feeling immense pleasure. Feeling Blaziken's full length repeatedly thrusted in and out of her, hitting her g-spot over and over again. She couldn't help but let out a cry of ecstasy. With her cry, Blaziken once again quickened his pace.
Thrusting his full length deeper and deeper within her walls with each thrust. He could feel his ejaculation building up within him, but he didn't want to stop.
As his thrusts continued, Delphox let out another muffled cry of ecstasy into his neck, as she squirted her liquids all over his member. Blaziken could feel a new feeling of warm liquid running out of her entrance. He looked down and saw drops making it down to the floor below them.
He looked back up, his eyes resting on Delphox's bouncing breasts. Watching them move to the rhythm of his thrusts was amazing. But they just made it harder for him to refrain from cumming.
Delphox was also building up for her climax. She didn't know how much more of this she could take before she hit it. But just like Blaziken, she didn't want to.
They were going to enjoy this moment- enjoy each other as long as they possibly could.
(LEMON END)
Gardevoir floated over to the changing rooms to try on the few items that Luna had given her. She hadn't noticed the one next to the one she took was currently occupied.
She hadn't heard anything until she floated into the room and closed the door. She was getting ready to pull her dress down, when she heard a muffled moan from the next room over. She stared at the wall as she heard it yet again. She was confused. She looked around the small dressing room she was in, knowing full well she wasn't going to see anything in there.
The moans continued. Gardevoir wanted to know what it was. She pressed her hand against the shared wall to the next room over, and closed her eyes. She focused all of her thoughts on the wall. She knew of this psychic ability she had, but she had never used it before. She never felt like she had the need to. But she was curious what was going on in the next room.
A porthole appeared in her mind, allowing her to see what was in the next room, and what she saw, made her jump back and press her back to the opposite wall.
It was Blaziken and Delphox, but they were... mating. The way Blaziken was holding her up, one hand on her back, the other resting on her bottom, Delphox's back against the back wall of the room, the way she could see his penis moving in and out of her vagina, and her muffled moans, all ran through Gardevoir's mind.
She leaned with her back against the wall, staring at the one across, not knowing what to do at that moment.
She floated in silence for several minutes, her mind eventually going blank. She was still trying to process this whole thing. She understood that Pokémon needed to mate, but doing it like that, and in the changing room of a store in a mall of all places? She didn't understand it.
She eventually shook her head, finally looking away from the wall she had been staring at. She didn't even feel like trying anymore clothes on at this point. Especially knowing what was going on in the next room over.
She gathered the clothes she had brought in the room and was getting ready to exit, when she stopped.
The thought of what Blaziken and Delphox were doing ran through her head. But... it wasn't Blaziken and Delphox doing it, it was her and Brennan.
The thought of Brennan lifting her up off of the floor, pinning her back against the wall, feeling him thrusting himself inside of her. She closed her eyes and bit her bottom lip, crossing her legs as she felt a tingle between them.
She shook her head, before quickly exiting the changing room. She just needed to get out of there.
She quickly made her way back over to Luna, who was still looking around.
"Soooo, how did they fit?" Luna asked, once Gardevoir approached her. She was supposed to go in the changing room and try them on. But after what she saw, she didn't want to hand around and do that. She nodded in response.
"V-Voir." She replied. She decided to wing it. Luna said they looked like they would fit her, so that's what she was going to go by.
"That's great!" Luna exclaimed. "I'm almost done getting what I need, so I'll be ready to go in just a minute." She continued. Gardevoir nodded, before looking away.
Gardevoir stood there, trying her hardest to push her thoughts and what she had just witnessed out of her head. She had really been having a good day up until that point. At this point, she just wanted to go back to Brennan's, take a warm shower, and go to sleep.
Several torturing minutes passed before Luna was finally ready to go. She and Gardevoir headed up the counter to pay for their things. Gardevoir was just happy to be getting out of that store.
Gardevoir and Luna exited the store and made their way back over to the guys.
"So, any luck?" Brennan asked, looking at Gardevoir. She nodded and held up the bag that her newly acquired items were in. He smiled. "That's great. I'm glad Luna was able to help you find some things that fit." He said.
"It wasn't too hard to do actually. But, yep, we found her some nice things." Luna said.
"Thank you." Brennan mouthed. Luna smiled and nodded at him.
"Sooooo, did you get them?" Lane asked.
"I don't know, did I?" Luna asked rhetorically, holding up the bag she was carrying. Lane's tongue fell out of his mouth like a hungry dog staring at a nice meal.
Brennan chuckled, before looking around. He thought they had been ready to go, but Blaziken and Delphox were missing again.
"Are Blaziken and Delphox still in there?" He asked, getting Luna to look at him.
"They must be." She replied. Brennan didn't know what could have been taking them so long, but he figured while they were waiting, he could take Gardevoir to the food court.
"Hey, you know what, while we're waiting, Gardevoir and I are going to run over to the food court. Do you guys want anything?" Brennan asked.
"No thank you." Luna replied with a smile. Brennan looked over at Lane, who shook his head.
"Nope, I have to save my appetite." He said, causing Luna to blush and slap him in the back of the head.
"If you keep talking like that you'll have no reason to save your appetite." Luna said in an annoyed tone. Lane frowned and rubbed the back of his head.
Brennan shook his head in amusement, before looking at Gardevoir and motioning her to follow him with his head. Gardevoir nodded and the two took off towards the food court.
About halfway there, Brennan looked over at Gardevoir, who hadn't said anything the whole walk.
"Hey, Gardevoir, is everything okay?" He asked, getting the Pokémon to look at him. She gave him a smile and nodded. She was doing her absolute best to keep her inappropriate thoughts about him out of her head.
Brennan continued staring at her, even after she looked straight again. He just felt like something was wrong that she wasn't telling him about.
He figured maybe he could surprise her with some of her berries while they were there. He was hoping that would cheer her up.
As they neared the small stand that sold the berries, they didn't notice the blonde man in a suit watching them.
"So, Gardevoir, you know those berries you like?" Brennan said curiously. Gardevoir returned her gaze to him as she nodded. "Well, this is where you buy them from." He continued, as they stopped in line at the stand. Gardevoir lit up, causing Brennan to chuckle.
"Voir?!" She asked. Brennan nodded.
"Yep!" He replied. This news seemed to cheer Gardevoir up, at least a little bit. Which Brennan was happy about.
They only waited in line for about two minutes before they got up to the counter. Brennan bought two berry boxes, happily handing one to Gardevoir to snack on as they headed back towards the group. Gardevoir was enjoying her berries, when they were stopped.
"Uh... excuse me! Sir!" A man exclaimed, getting both Brennan and Gardevoir to stop and turn around. As they did, they saw a blonde man in a suit making his way over to them. They thought it was weird.
To Brennan, he looked like some kind of door to door salesman or something. He didn't like those kinds of people.
"Hello, I'm Irwin S. Schwills, and I just wanted to comment on that lovely Gardevoir you have there." The man, Irwin, said. Gardevoir scooted a little behind Brennan, growing slightly embarrassed by being called 'lovely.'
Brennan looked over his shoulder back at Gardevoir, before turning his attention back to the man.
"Uh... thank you." Brennan said.
As Gardevoir stared at him, she was getting really negative vibes. She felt like he couldn't be trusted. His hair was combed back, his cheap looking suit was wrinkled, he was wearing dirty boots with a suit, and underneath the pair of glasses he was wearing rested a giant scar over his left eye. Something just didn't feel right to her.
"So, I have taken such an interest in your Gardevoir that I'm prepared to offer you fifty thousand dollars for it." Irwin said. Both Brennan and Gardevoir went wide eyed.
Gardevoir quickly looked at Brennan, worried about what he was going to say. Brennan wasn't shocked at the cash amount he was offered, he was shocked that some random stranger would come up out of nowhere and ask to buy someone else's Pokémon.
"I'm sorry, but SHE isn't for sale." Brennan finally replied. This relaxed Gardevoir. She knew he wouldn't sell her. The man cleared his throat.
"What about one-hundred thousand dollars for... her?" Irwin asked. Brennan didn't even need to think about it, quickly shaking his head in response.
"No. Like I said, she isn't for sale." He replied.
"Come on, everybody has a price." Irwin said. "Since I'm so interested in that Gardevoir, I'm prepared to offer you one million dollars for her." He continued, pulling out his checkbook as he did.
Brennan was starting to grow very frustrated with this guy. What he wanted to do was punch him in the nose and break his glasses. But, he somehow managed to refrain himself from doing so.
"Look dude, like I've said twice already; SHE ISN'T FOR SALE!" Brennan exclaimed, trying to get this guy to understand what he was saying.
Gardevoir frowned at the man, clearly able to tell he was upsetting Brennan. She looped one of her arms through his and grabbed ahold of it, getting him to look at her. Brennan looked at her, before looking back at the man.
"So, if that's all you needed, my Gardevoir and I are going to be on our way. Have a nice night." Brennan said, trying his hardest to remain as calm as he possibly could. He and Gardevoir turned away from the man and started walking back towards their group.
As they walked away, the man pulled something out of his pocket and quickly flicked it towards Gardevoir. Luckily for him, it stuck to the back of her dress without her knowing. He sneered at his work, as he watched the two disappear into the distance.
"See ya soon, Gardevoir." The man said to himself.
Once Brennan and Gardevoir made it back to the group, they saw that Blaziken and Delphox had finally rejoined them. When Gardevoir saw them, her mind immediately traveled back to the inappropriate thoughts she had about Brennan.
"There you guys are. We were starting to wonder if you were coming back." Luna said.
"Yeah, sorry it took so long. We were on our way back when some needle nosed, Scarface villain reject stopped us and asked me if I would sell him Gardevoir." Brennan said, his annoyance still present in his voice. This surprised both Luna and Lane.
"Are you serious?!" Luna asked. Brennan nodded.
"He wouldn't take 'No, she's not for sale' as an answer. I was getting ready to make his stupid glasses a permanent part of his face." He replied.
"What a dick." Lane said. Brennan looked at him and nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, a huge one." He said. Luna shook her head in disgust. If she was around them when that guy did that, she would have made sure he took no for an answer.
"I'm sorry that happened to you guys." She said, feeling very sympathetic for the pair.
"Dudes lucky I walked away when I did." Brennan said. He was clearly still annoyed, and Gardevoir didn't like that. She tightened her grasp on his arm, getting him to look at her.
Brennan stared into her sparkly red eyes, almost getting lost in them. He wasn't even paying any mind to the people who were staring at them. There is no way Brennan would sell Gardevoir. No way whatsoever. And that was fact.
"Alright, is everyone ready to go?" Luna asked happily, trying to lighten the mood as she looked around to make sure everyone was there. They were. Brennan and Gardevoir finally managed to break their eye contact, even though neither of them wanted to.
"I'll take that as a yes." Lane said, lifting up all of Luna's bags. "I better look like a bodybuilder when we get home." He continued, looking down at all the bags.
"Maybe someday, sweetheart." Luna said with a giggle, as she patted him on the shoulder. Lane frowned as he followed her to the exit.
Brennan looked back over at Gardevoir, who looked like she had seen a ghost. This concerned him.
"Are you okay, Gardevoir?" He asked. Gardevoir glanced over at Blaziken and Delphox, who were practically cuddled together as they walked. She looked back at Brennan, before nodding.
She wasn't going to tattle on the two. They obviously loved each other, so they were going to do... THAT eventually. She felt more embarrassed about imagining that it was her a Brennan, than she was that she saw it to begin with.
Brennan wanted to take Gardevoir's hand as they walked, but they were both full of bags. That disappointed him.
They followed behind the others as they exited the mall. The sun was starting to set, so they had been in the mall a lot longer than it seemed. Except for that accident at the end, they had a good day. And Brennan was grateful of Luna for making it happen. Anything to make Gardevoir happy was worth it.
As the left the mall, Gardevoir glanced over at the fountain one last time. A smile formed on her face. Sure, she had been through some rough spots today. But, overall, she had a good day.
She thought back to what Brennan had said about tossing a coin in the fountain and making a wish. She smiled because she knew her wish had already come true.
She glanced over at Brennan, who was staring straight ahead. Again seemingly lost in his own thoughts.
Since Gardevoir was only carrying a couple of things, she moved all of it to her right hand, freeing her left. She moved closer to Brennan, once again hugging onto his left arm, smiling up at him as she did.
Brennan, broken from his thoughts, looked down at her. There was that smile again. It was something that no matter how many times he saw it, he loved it.
He smiled back at her. They stared at each other again for several seconds, before finally looking straight again.
As they walked, Gardevoir couldn't help but think how much had changed between the two just since this morning. They seemed closer than before. She wanted to be closer to him. And with the way he treated her, especially today, she couldn't help but wonder if he wanted to be closer to her.
But, even with all of those thoughts running through her head, she still couldn't help but feel like something bad was about to happen.
