I was going to upload this chapter later, but I was super hyped for all of you to know that I now have a fictionpress account and a really cool story (Not the one-shot) with five chapters already. However, this is because those chapters were written about a year or two ago, meaning the quality maybe isn't the same. Still, I highly recommend you read that story, because I'm in love with the concept and characters.

Shameless self-promotion aside, here's chapter 23 of House of Pokémon Legends.

Chapter 23: Reveal

"Ok, you ready?"

"I guess. I'm afraid of what they'll think though." Lyra replied.

"It doesn't matter. We're Legends, remember?"

"Right. Let's do this."

Before Krystal and Silver woke up, Gold and Lyra stepped out of their room to announce their news to the House.

"Guys, listen, it's important." Gold started. "Lyra and I talked yesterday and there was something that came to out attention. Something that some of you may have noticed." Red narrowed his eyes. "The relationship between Lyra and me wasn't the same as you guys. It was actual love for you. Ours was because we shared a mutual loss. Now that Krystal and Silver are here, we finally noticed that it wasn't a true relationship. So..." Gold struggled to continue.

"We just broke up." Lyra finished. The room stayed silent for a while.

"About time." Red muttered and continued reading.

"'About time'? That's what you say?" Dawn looked at Red accusingly.

"Yep. Didn't you notice?" Dawn shook her head.

"Also, Krystal and Silver never knew about us, so it would be wonderful if you kept that a secret." Lyra added, making Leaf sigh.

"Sure."

It was at this moment that Silver descended the stairs.

"Good morning."

"Good morning."

The room became awkward as Silver sat down with his bowl of cereal.

"You know," Lyra told Silver. "We should tell them."

He stopped eating immediately. "Now?" She nodded.

"Alright." You could see he was happy. "Lyra and I have been...together for a few days now. I guess now's the time to reveal the truth."

Most Legends widened their eyes.

"Silver of all people? I didn't know bad boys were your type." Nate smiled, earning a punch in the shoulder from Lyra.

Silver however, frowned. "What do you mean, 'bad boy'?"

"Well, most rivals are at least somewhat dark or douchey. Rivals are typically the 'leave me alone, I'm an anti-hero' type. You gotta admit you fit in." Silver shrugged.

"I guess you're right."

"Hey guys." Gold got up from his chair. "I should go wake up Kris."

(Gold's P.O.V)

Unlike last time, I opened the door and went inside without knocking. Kris was sleeping peacefully, her hair messy and her hat put aside.

I silently walked over to her bed and gently lifted the covers off of her. Kris was barely wearing a shirt and some panties. She got into a fetal position, but she slept through it. Slightly annoyed, I decided to do something that would wake her up. Careful not to touch her, I got on the bed and on top of her. I turned her head my way and kissed her gently, both of my hands now caressing her cheeks. Not a second later, she gripped my jacket and kissed back. Her lips were soft and her body was warm.

After a while, she stopped, opened her eyes, and smiled. "Good morning. That's quite a technique for waking me up."

I chuckled. "It was the only way I could wake you up without getting you angry at me."

She laughed and got up. "You're right."

"Wow. I'm right for once." I remembered all the pointless little fights we had back at Johto.

Still not off the bed, I watched her open her closet and take her shirt off. I instinctively covered my eyes.

"Oh come on, it's not like we didn't see each other in Newbark."

"Yeah but we were kids! This is different!" I was still covering my eyes, but I knew her well enough to know she just rolled her eyes.

"Hey, do you think I should wear this, or this?"

I, thinking that she had covered herself with some clothes that I had to choose from, uncovered my eyes to see Krystal holding two shirts on either side of her naked body.

In less than a second, I could already feel my cheeks getting as red as a Scizor and...something else.

"Jesus Christ, Kris." But I couldn't stop myself from looking. She had definitely grown. I mean, not exactly sexy, but cute.

"The usual one on the right."

"Thanks Goldilocks." Good god. I hadn't heard that nickname for so long.

"This isn't what we're going to be, right?" I asked, referring to her seductive manner. "I mean, I don't really want to become like Black."

Kris let out a short laugh. "Of course not, silly. You're so cute sometimes."

I frowned. "Look who's talking."

"So you're saying I'm cute?" She said it in a playful way, but I responded immediately with a yes. She turned silent and a light shade of rose.

"Th-thanks. You're not too bad yourself."

I got off the bed and walked over to her.

"I decided we should tell them today." This surprised Kris, but in a good way.

"Good. I can finally give you the hugs and kisses you deserve in public."

(Back downstairs)

"We're back!" Gold announced, descending the stairs with Krystal shortly behind.

"And we've got some surprising news of our own." Krystal added.

"We are now together. In a relationship." The room stayed silent for a while. Nate once again broke the ice.

"Well then. This episode of The House of Drama Legends is officially over."

Welp. It wasn't much, but I was really caught up with other things like school and my other story. At least you got a chapter, and that's what counts, right?

I also want to apologize for the quality of the writing since I didn't have the time to properly write this chapter.

Anyways, as always, please leave a review.
