Welcome back! I'm glad you could make it! Last time we had Mucosa introduced (and it seems I do Lance better than the OC owner…Somehow…) and I mentioned Xeta. I also have a special POV for a friend. Enjoy!

Autumn: Hey! What about me? Don't I get a special bit for this intro?

Mmmmmmm nope.

Autumn: Fuck you.

No thanks sweetheart. You're pretty much my daughter.

Autumn: …

Onto the story!

-Last the on An Unlikely Couple-

"Sure thing Mucosa. We're here for you." Lance said, pretty much agreeing with me.

-Mucosa's POV-

It's been a few days since i've last seen Autumn and Lance. That weekend took forever to finish! I had fun with Xeta, learned a bit about sports and showed him some medical procedures, but I think we'll just be friends. He's nice and charming, but he isn't really my type.

Oh! Sorry! I forgot to introduce who I am! My name is Mucosa. I'm a shiny Goodra that's a little shorter than normal Goodra, is hoping to be a doctor or nurse and is currently heading over to Autumn's house to have a girl chat. I need some girl time after this weekend. Nothing but boys being around me makes me a little uncomfortable, especially when I don't know them.

I wasn't sure what to talk about though. Neither of us were really 'girly'. We mostly just talked about random stuff like the most recent episode of whatever show we were watching. We'll most likely end up talking about the book our class has to read, How to Kill a Tailow. Autumn was more into fantasy that didn't involve other pokemon, so she didn't really seem to be enjoying it that much. I loved it though. Great characters, the development was nice, plot was good but could have used a little work and it was an all around good book.

Well, seems I'm here. I just hope Mrs. Colana is ok with me coming over. I kinda forgot to ask before I came here, woops. No turning back now, I guess.

Knock knock

"Coming! I need to turn off the oven!" I heard somebody call. It sounded like Jillian, Autumn's older sister and the least girly one of the household. I haven't really talked to her much, so my confidence with her isn't the best. As she opened the door, she had a smile on her face, probably having already looked in my head to see what I wanted. "Well hi Mucosa, Autumns in her room watching TV, go right on up. Tell her dinner is almost done though, we're having grilled Magikarp with salad and Oran Berry's, her favorite. She doesn't come down often so we need to tell her when it's time or she might miss dinner. You should stay and have dinner with us, if you want to, that is."

"S-sure thing, Jillian." I said, startled at how friendly she was and how fast she asked me to do that. I couldn't say no, it was like my tongue forced me to say it. "And I think I'll stay for the salad and berries, thank you. I haven't eaten all day, what with work, school and personal things." I said, agreeing to stay for the food. Sometimes it's tough to be a Goodra.

As I stepped inside, I had to stop and take a look at what I was seeing. It always amazed me at how spacious and luxurious the Colana's house was. A living room big enough to for all the legendaries, a TV wide enough it looked like a jumbotron you'd see at a stadium, carpet so soft it felt like clouds and couches long and wide enough to fit at least three Snorlax's. If I remember correctly, this was all bought from the money Autumn's dad made when he went out of dangerous missions to keep us safe. There may have been a bit of stuff 'liberated' from people with too much money, but it wasn't so bad.

Anyways, going up the steps and toward Autumn's room, I noticed some family portraits scattered here and there. They were probably reminders of how they used to live when their dad was around. Poor kids, losing their dad at that age, even if I'm younger than most of them. You shouldn't lose your parent or parents like that. It's not right and it never will be. At least they'll see each other some day.

"Hey Autumn, you there?" I called as I knocked on the door. I heard what sounded like a movie, but it might have been music. She must be doing something. She doesn't mind if I just walk in when I come over, but I always knock anyway just to be polite.

I heard a chuckle as the music or movie went off. "Come in Mucosa, how many times do I gotta tell you that you don't have to knock?" I could then hear her walking toward the door, not even giving me a chance to open it myself. When I saw her, she looked stunning. She wore a flowing red dress that looked as if it were made of fire, blue heels that looked as though the water had wrapped itself around her feet and her hair was braided in such a way that it looked curly yet smooth at the same time. Her sister probably did her hair, but I wondered what the occasion was that she'd wear a dress like this.

She noticed my look of awe as my eyes trailed up and down her body, still racking my brain as to why she had dressed like this today, and chuckled. Normally she wore jeans, a tee-shirt and slippers and looked like an average girl. She only ever wore something so nice when there was going to be something special that day. "I'm going with my mom to meet some of the other legends today, that's why I'm dressed like this." She said, as if she had read my thoughts. "I can take you along, if you want. The entire family is going and Lance is taking Degen, though he said not to call him that anymore, as he prefers Floofs now for some reason, Jillian is taking Tanya, Clair is taking her first boyfriend, a guy named John, Tommy is taking Will and Fortune is taking his wife, Katrina. I don't have anybody to take, so if you wanna go, I can take you along."

I was shocked, both by the fact that she was meeting more legendary pokemon, and that she'd offer to take me along. I wanted to say no and be thankful she'd do that, but this was a once in a lifetime opportunity. "Thank you Autumn! I never thought I'd be able to meet legendaries other than the ones at school! This'll be great for some research our mythology teacher gave us!" I said, overexcited. I wanted to go now! The only problem was, I didn't have any formal wear right now! "I need to run home before I can go though. I need to change my clothes so I can look nice!"

As I was turning about, I heard Autumn chuckle. "You don't need to change, silly. Mom is the only one making us be formal. The guests we're bringing don't need any formal clothes or anything, just what they bring with them at that moment. Oh, and are you staying for dinner? I can smell the grilled Magikarp already."

"Huh? You can smell that? Why don't you ever go down without them coming to get you if you can smell it? And yeah, I am staying." I asked, confused and shocked yet again. She must like causing grief, there's no other way.

"Well, I can smell a grilled Magikarp from a mile away, and they don't really make the rest of the food they eat smell all that good. I guess it just depends on the person." She said, surprising me with an actual answer. I forgot she was able to do that. It's like she has some sort of grilled Magikarp radar or something built into her nose. "We should probably head down to see if they're done cooking yet. I'm starving and that Magikarp won't eat itself!"

We then started walking down the stairs, only to get knocked over by Clair and Tommy running past us. Seems they were eager for some food as well. "HEY! NO RUNNING IN THE HOUSE! YOU KNOW WHAT MOM SAID!" Autumn yelled from beside me, having lifted herself up enough to yell at them. We got up and brushed ourselves off and Autumn fixed her hair a bit. As we got downstairs, Fortune nodded to us. "Hello Autumn, Mucosa. How are you today?"He asked, using telepathy to speak to us because of his tongue being malformed. Even though we could speak to him, he couldn't speak back unless he used telepathy.

"It's going good bro, how about yourself?" Autumn asked, going to hug him. They had a close bond, I could tell. They never argued, were always nice to each other and always helped one another out if needed. I wish I had a brother or sister like that. Maybe I wouldn't be so lonely if I did.

I snapped out of my thoughts then, noticing them staring at me with a concerned look on their faces. "You ok Autumn? You had a pretty far off look there for a minute. We didn't know if something was wrong or not." I panicked a bit then, not knowing what to say, so I said the truth. "W-well, in all honesty, something is bothering me. You two are so friendly with each other, even for siblings, and I don't really have anyone like that aside from you guys. I was thinking that it'd be nice to have a brother or sister I could be that friendly with, tha maybe I wouldn't be so lonely if I did."

They could only look at me with a look that was probably meant to be comforting, but it only made me tear up and want to run out crying. "I-I think i'll skip dinner after all. Thank you guys for letting me com over, even on such short notice." I said as I headed toward the door. When I stepped outside and started to run off, I heard Autumn calling for me to stop, but only barely. The tears were flowing and I wished I could redo that visit. I guess it wasn't a good time for me to go over after all.

And thus ends my time visiting Autumn for the day.

-Break-

Welp, that's another chapter down. I might add an OC of my own again, though it'd be to work in something for Mucosa to be happy. And no Chloe, I won't have Mucosa and Floofs date in this, even if you two are dating in real life. There's a method to my madness and this method does not (at the moment) involve Floofs. Oh, and to those of you who read this and go over to Floofs (Degen) and read his stuff, I don't know if he would prefer you call him Floofs or Degen on there. He prefers it on Discord, but thats because we know him a little and he has his reasons for it as well. Oh, and sorry for the long wait! I wanted to have this out on Christmas, but I got sidetracked… again...

Autumn: Why'd ya make Mucosa run away crying? We were gonna have grilled Magikarp!

Shush, it's a part of my madness and the method to it. Now go talk to the others for a minute while I think of what i'm going to do for next chapter.

Autumn: Yeah yeah, whatever. Even if I don't leave you won't do anything about it.

I can kill each and every one of your family and friends and force it to replay in your head for all eternity to drive you insane and turn you into an unkillable being with no power that goes on a rampage to kill everything.

Autumn: …

Now leave.

Autumn: OK OK! I'M GOING!

Good. Now then, thanks for reading again! I'll see you all next chapter! Oh, and in case anyone who reads UNH and wants another chapter, that's most likely going to be put on hold for a while until I finish this. I will be getting my first job soon and that combined with school and doing youtube, it'll take up all of my time. I'll do my best though, don't worry.
