~ Eevee
"Wow, your house is huge!"
"On the outside it looks like it's three stories tall when it's really just two."
"Wait seriously?!"
"Yeah. Once you step inside you'll see."
The house we arrived at did in fact look three stories high. I mean I have seen it before, only one time though, that I forgot how tall it was.
"I'll go get your things Eevee."
"Oh you don't have to do that Sylveon. Really you don't."
"I insist."
"Well...okay then."
Sylveon said as he ran to get my things from inside the car trunk.
"We haven't had guests in a while. It's such a shame since my son is such a gentlemon."
"Mother!"
I laughed as Sylveon yelled at his mom looking a little embarrassed.
"What?! I'm just telling the truth to your good friend here."
"Yeah, take the compliment Sylveon! They're hard to come by nowadays!"
"No! No! No! I'm not offended! I just want to make a good impression and I'm worried mom might end up embarrassing me or something."
"Good. You know Eevee is such a good friend to you too, maybe you guys could-"
"Mother!!!'
"And I believe that's my cue to get the door!"
I laughed again as Vaporeon headed inside and Sylveon approached me carrying my luggage in each ribbon.
"Sorry about that. I hope my mom is not too much for you to handle Eevee."
"No she isn't. She reminds me of how my parents are sometimes. But I see where you get your optimism from now."
"She was a great influence on me. My mother is an amazing womon. She just embarasses me from time to time."
"That's her way of showing she cares. Don't forget that Sylveon."
"I don't. I remember that she cares every day since the day I was born. She really is all I have too. I can't imagine not having her as mother."
"Aww, that's really sweet of you Sylveon. I can't wait to get to know you guys better now."
"And we can't wait to get to know you better Eevee."
We both flinched as Vaporeon came out of the kitchen speaking with extreme excitement.
"Whoah! How long have you been there mother?"
"Long enough to know that the atmosphere is getting warmer with you two."
"Huh? Warmer atmosphere?"
"MOTHER!!!"
"Hehehehe! You know I'm just teasing you right, my Sylvie baby?"
Did she just call him Sylvie? I fought the urge to laugh right then and there.
"I'm gonna show Eevee to her room now mom! Good night! Come on Eevee!"
Sylveon grabbed my paw and we marched up the stairs together.
"Oh okay! Thanks for everything Mrs V."
"Don't mention it Eevee and be sure to call me Vylena from now on okay!!"
"Good night then Vylena!"
"Good night! Don't forget to brush your teeth!""
"Noted!!!"
I waited until we were out of earshot to let go of Sylveon's paw and fell on the floor in a burst of laughter.
"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! EEVUI! EEVUI! AHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Sylveon leaned against the wall, turning his head away in embarassment.
"Your mother called you, 'Sylvie baby',...HAHAHAHAHA!!!!...Just too much... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
"Not the best nickname in the world, but yeah she does."
"I know right? Hahahahaha!!!"
"I'm just glad she didn't call me 'Fairy bon bon', or I would have really started laughing too."
"What seriously?! Hahahahaha!!! Don't ever say that again or I won't stop laughing now..."
"Hmm, fairy..."
"No don't...Hehehehe...Stop..."
"Bon..."
"Okay! Okay! Seriously!!! Enough!!! Let's go upstairs now you dork!"
"Hehehe...Alright."
We kept going until we finally reached the top of the stairs, Sylveon looking tired carrying my bags.
"Phew! What do you have in here Eevee? Bricks?"
"What? There's not supposed to be-"
"Hehehehe! You know I'm just pulling your leg, right?"
"Oh! Yeah! I knew that!"
Sylveon laughed a little more as I turned the knob to the door labeled 'guest room.'
"Oh! Mom didn't mean that one. She means the one next to it."
"Oh okay."
I walked over to the other door and turned the knob. Inside was a room full of cute pink and white furniture.
"Wow this room is adorable!!! And the bed even has a peach colored bed spread!!!"
I jumped onto the soft silk sheets and it was the most comfortable experience ever.
"Well I'm glad you like it. This used to be my mother's room when she was a teenager."
"Your mom has impeccable taste!! I love every inch of this room!!!"
"Hehehehe. I can see that. This house used to belong to my great grandparents, and has been passed down to us. My mother loved this room as a kid and even more as a teen. That's why she refuses to change the way it looks. But the day you tell her you want to make this room yours someday then she won't mind."
"Is she really offering me the room? Or are you just being nice?"
"A bit of both actually. But we can talk about that later, for now just enjoy yourself in the meantime and use this room to your hearts content."
"O-okay..."
I don't why but I suddenly wanted to cry. After spending more time with the kindest Pokémon in the world than I could have ever hoped for I was just so happy.
"What's wrong Eevee?"
"I'm sorry it's just... I'm not used to anyone helping me out like you guys have...You guys are like my second family but you also make me feel like I could belong here...I've never felt this happy before...Like I'm at home...Oh please don't tell my parents I said that..."
"I won't."
I tried to wipe away my tears, feeling really embarassed for getting so emotional. Sylveon sat down next to me not saying anything. I couldn't take it anymore and soon I was having full on sobs.
"What's wrong with me?"
"Nothing is. You just don't experience real joy or kindness often aside from your parents. And I hope you don't mind but I want to help you change that."
"No I don't mind..."
We sat there and talked until my tears finally subsided. I felt so drained I almost fell asleep the moment my head hit the pillow.
"If you need anything let me know Eevee."
"O-okay..."
"Goodnight, Eevee."
"Good night Sylveon..."
Exhaustion hit me hard and the last thing I remember is Sylveon stepping out of the room before I passed out into a peaceful sleep.
(Note : How will spending the first day at Sylveon's house be like? Find out in Ch 59 ~ Eevee!)
