Chapter 13

Hello again everyone, I am back with yet another chapter of my story. MY OC also recently made it into another story. He is a jerk in that story, you will find out why as this story progresses what made him that way. But it won't be for like another 30+ chapters. Anyway, here's the next chapter.

(Mathews POV)

When I woke up the next morning, my parents were already awake. My mother had made a delicious breakfast, but unfortunately, I still wasn't hungry at all. After breakfast, my father brought up our topic from last night once everyone else had left.

"So, Mathew, did you think about what we discussed last night? I hope you did because I'd like to get an answer as soon as possible." He spoke.

"I did dad, but I really don't know what to do. I want to give William a chance to have a family. But there is just one thing that keeps getting to me, Nicholas." I answered.

My father shifted in his seat, I know he remembered the Dewott that made my childhood a living nightmare. I guess he only wondered why he was a problem with taking in William. I could tell because he was now giving a puzzled stare, so I might as well enlighten him.

"You see; Nicholas was abandoned by his family. He wouldn't get into it too much, but I know that ever since that day, he has been living with William in Sharpedo Bluff. If we were to take William away, he would be all alone." I said with a lot of sympathy.

"Why would you care about what happens to him, last time I checked, he was nothing but a cruel bully to you. Maybe being all alone would teach him a lesson." My dad yelled.

How could my father say something like that? I know Nicholas was horrible back then, but he has changed. He was practically begging for forgiveness yesterday.

"He's not like that anymore. He has completely changed. He was begging for me to accept his apology and I did. It was a long time ago; I don't want to hurt him like that. Not a few years after being abandoned in the first place." I whispered, hoping nobody else heard our discussion.

My father started to show concern now. He knew I was right. It was a long time ago, and hurting Nicholas like that isn't right either. He sighed and called for my mother. After what seemed like a few minutes, she came in the kitchen.

"What is it, has Mathew decided to ask William or not?" She asked curiously as ever.

"That's the problem" My father started, "William is currently residing with Nicholas, and we don't want to hurt him by taking William away."

"Well that's simple, if we can't take one away from the other than we just take them both in." My mom screamed in joy.

Me and my Father just gasped in shock. Now my mother wanted to take both William and Nicholas in. I don't want to take William away and leave Nicholas alone, but to actually take him in. I know I said I forgave him, but accepting him as an adopted brother is just way too much. This was something that was out of my power though. Usually when my mother wants something, she gets it. Dad never could say no, he loves her just too much for it. But this, this may actually be something dad has to say no to. There is no way that he would say yes after everything he just said about the Dewott.

"Honey, I don't know about that. I mean, this is the very same Dewott that tormented Matt all those years ago." He responded with upmost concern.

"That was years ago, I heard Mathew say he begged for forgiveness. I'm willing to give him a second chance. And besides, are you telling me that a loyal member of the federation is going to deny a homeless child a chance to feel alive again." My mom whispered to my father.

I know what she's trying to do. She's playing the guilt trip game hoping he will give in. She does make a good point, I decided I wanted to give Nicholas a chance to prove he was sorry, and I would feel horrible if he was alone and homeless. What am I saying, I can't believe it, but now even I want to help him? I don't want him to be like me, all those nights of crying myself to sleep just wishing somebody was there. I can't believe myself, but I want him to be with a family. Maybe this is that destiny William was talking about. Maybe the three of us are destined to be together. Just maybe Nicholas will get his chance to prove he is a different person. I am about to say something I never thought I'd say, but it needs to be done.

"Mom's right, I didn't think it at first, but she is right. Nicholas deserves a chance to change. William believes destiny brought us together. If this is true, then I can't deny it. I Want Nicholas to have everything to." I yelled loud enough to get my parents attention.

"If this is truly the way you both feel, then I'm fine with it. I was never able to say no. It was almost as if the words never existed to me. Mathew, I want you to find the both of them and ask them. It doesn't have to be today, but I want an answer by the end of the week, understood." My father instructed.

I simply nodded my head and went out the door. I was about to ask two Pokémon I hardly knew a question that would change their lives and possibly mine forever. I just hoped I had enough courage to do so. I've only got until the café to build up the courage. So for now, all I can do is walk, and hope that when I finally ask the question, the answer is the one I want to hear.

End of chapter 13

Yeah, I know it was a short chapter ok. The chapters may either be short or long depending on when I get around to doing them or how busy I am. The next chapter may be out today or Wednesday.

SSP's next chapter won't be out for a while, I am having a writer's block with that story. I hope to get it done as soon as possible. Also, as I said before, I can now say that Nicholas's bio story will be out soon. As far as the Lucario story is concerned, look for it soon.

SSP ending 2 will be released in October, I don't have a date set however. My first Da excusive may actually be Christopher's Bio which will be out in October as well. (Maybe.)

Still looking for OC's. Pm me, do not put it in the review section.
