Gary's POV
I tapped his foot impatiently as I sat inside the Pokémon Center. It was 6:43pm and I hadn't seen Lindy since she stormed off after our fight. "Ugh. I have no idea where she went!" I grumbled aloud.
I just hope that she has the sense to come back to the Pokémon Center rather than wondering around.
"I'm boooored!" Susie whined.
"I heard you the first four times," I growled.
"Can't we just leave? I'm sure Lisa is fine," she said dismissively.
"I already told you why," I snapped. "I have to make sure she gets back so she knows where we're staying tonight." And it's Lindy not Lisa.
"Uuuugggh! Who caaares? She has camping stuff!" Susie protested.
Yeah she does. But I bet that idiot didn't eat lunch because she was too busy running off. And it's past dinner time.
I let out a sigh. "Tell ya what. How about you go find us a nice restaurant to get some grub alright? Give me a call on my pokégear when you've found one." I said, trying to keep my playboy demeanor up.
"Oh great idea! Okay Gary I'll see you later!" she chirped as she skipped out of the Pokémon Center.
Finally some peace and quiet. I thought as I looked around the Pokémon center. There weren't many people here. A few trainers that had backtracked from Viridian Forest because they didn't have enough supplies, but nothing really worth paying attention to.
Something that did catch my eye though, was this four picture piece that hung on one of the Pokémon Center's walls. The work of art was carved into earth-tone clays, giving it a serene feel to it. What had been carved into them, looked to be Legendary Pokémon.
On the red panel in the top left looked like it might be Moltres. The green, bottom left panel was definitely a Zapdos. The yellow panel in the bottom right was an Arcanine. The blue panel in the top right seemed to be an Articuno.
Gramps had an old book with information on some of the Legendary Pokémon in Kanto. Although, Arcanine wasn't actually a Legendary. But it's species was classified as a Legendary Pokémon. So, although it was called a Legendary Pokémon, it wasn't a Legendary in the class as the 3 Great Bird Pokémon were. It took me a while before I could really wrap my head around what Gramps had said.
Ding, went the doors of the Pokémon Center, showing that someone had either entered or exited.
I let out a sigh. Even though it was probably another little kid like the last two times, I looked just to be safe.
I turned my attention to the doors of the Pokémon Center, and there she was. Her clothes had some dirt on them and her hair tussled around, a sign that she had definitely been doing something. And judging by how she hurried to the front desk, my money was on battling. However the bright smile on her face led me to believe it had ended well for her.
"Excuse me, Miss!" Lindy said.
"Yes? How may I help you?" Nurse Joy said cheerfully.
"Could you treat my Pokémon please?"
"Certainly!"
"Great! Thank you!" Lindy said as she handed the nurse.
"No problem. I'll call you when your Pokémon are recovered." Nurse Joy said. From where I was sitting, I couldn't see if she had more than one Pokémon or not. It was possible that she was just training her Bulbasaur. Either way, it wasn't good for me. I had some catching up to do by the looks of it.
At least she's alright I guess. I internally sighed and got up and walked over to Lindy. She turned around, saw me, and almost fell down.
"Jesus! Can you not sneak up on me?" she snapped.
"Oh don't even get started with me Lindy!" I growled, annoyed that the first thing she did was get angry at me. Two could play at that game. "YOU should me more aware of your surroundings. Do you know what time it is? Where were you? And more importantly, just what were you doing all this time?"
Lindy rolled her eyes and scoffed. "What are you my mother? I don't have to tell you anything."
"Yes, you do. In case you forgot, I got stuck with you and your mom left me in charge."
"No, I don't."
"Yes, you do."
"Then how about you make me," she challenged.
"Ugh! Could you grow up?" I groaned.
"Could you grow up?" she mimicked.
"That just proves my point, idiot."
"Hmph!" she pouted and turned away.
Just then my pokégear started ringing. I let out a sigh. "Hello?" I answered.
"Gaaarryyy!" Susie cooed, "I found this great pizza place!"
"Alright cool. Where is it?" I asked her, her voice was even more high pitched over the pokégear
"It's the second last house on the corner of twenty-first and Evans Street. It a cute little brick shop that's called Uncle Luigi's Pizza! So hurry uuup!"
I rubbed the back of my head, "Alright alright. I'll be there soon. Bye." I hung up and put my pokégear away.
"Let's go," I said to Lindy as I headed out of the Pokémon Center.
"Huh? Who was that?" she asked, following me out anyway.
"Susie. I sent her out to find a place to eat while I waited for you."
"Huh? You mean you didn't eat yet?" she asked me, as we stepped outside.
"No you idiot," I said with a sigh. How could I? "We went to book a hotel room for the night. After went to see if the gym was open, but the leader was a no show. We headed back here to wait for you. Susie was getting on my nerves so I sent her out to find a place to eat."
"Oh..." she murmured. "Um. Did you wait long?"
"If you call sitting around since four –thirty long, then yes," I muttered.
"Oh... I... Sorry," she said quietly.
"Mh," I grunted and kept walking.
"Ggrrrrrrmmmggg."
"What the-?" I asked. I turned around to see Lindy holding her stomach, her face Voltorb red with embarrassment.
"U-uuh..." she stuttered, looking down at her feet.
I let out a long sigh. "This is what happens when you storm off before lunch and come back late," I said shaking my head.
"Sh-shut up!" she snapped.
I let out another sigh. I grabbed her wrist. "Come on, let's hurry up," I said as I pulled Lindy along.
"H-hey! I can walk myself!" she protested.
"I'll believe that when you can take care of yourself. Now stop complaining," I instructed.
"Ugh. You're such a..."
"A what?"
"Never mind..." she muttered.
"Whatever," I sighed.
"U-uh... Gary?" Lindy asked, breaking the silence after about 5 minutes of me dragging her along.
"Yeah, what?" I asked.
"Thank you," she whispered. The quietness of her soft voice with the combination of her rare thanks, let me speechless for a moment. Did she just say thank you...?
"N-no problem," I stammered.
"There you aaare! Gaaarrryyy!" Susie cooed as she ran toward me.
"G-gah!" Lindy and I gasped. I let go of her wrist and turned the other way. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Lindy holding her wrist close to her chest blushing.
"What took you so long?" Susie whined, as she glomped onto my arm. "Come ooon lets go eat! I'm like, totally starved!"
"Okay, okay. Let's go," I sighed. I turned to Lindy, "Come on Lindy, let's go eat."
"Mh? Oh. Sure!" she said with a smile.
Lindy's POV
Gary, Susie and I were walking to the hotel we'd be saying in for the night. I was kind of looking forward to camping, but I guess there would be plenty of other opportunities to go camping. Besides, the dinner we had, put me in a really good mood. We had gotten a medium Hawaiian pizza and some fries. The food there was GREAT!
Susie was chatting it up with Gary in front. I was in the back since I didn't know where the hotel was. I don't think I'd like to be up there anyway. Susie seemed keen on keeping Gary all to herself. Honestly, I kind of felt bad for Gary. Susie seemed extremely annoying. I didn't know how he dealt with her.
"Lindy we're here," Gary said, bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Huh? Oh." I looked up at the hotel. MAN was it big. "Damn..."
"Mmmh?" Gary asked.
"It's huge," I stated.
"Well what did you expect?" Susie asked. "Only the best for Gary!"
Gary let out a sigh and walked in. So he does get annoyed with her. I thought with a snicker, as I walked in after him.
Gary received two keys from the receptionist at the desk. "Have a nice stay," she said with a cheery voice.
"Thanks," Gary said as he walked towards the elevator, Susie right behind him. Gary pushed the button. After a moment, the elevator dinged and opened. We filed in and Gary pushed the number 3 button. The hotel only had four flours, so you'd think it would just have stairs, but I guess not. Pretty nice though.
Ding, the elevator said letting us know we'd arrived at our floor. We all stepped out. "Alright here you go girls," Gary said as he handed us a key.
"Mmh?" Susie and I question.
"Wait?! You don't mean I have to sleep in the same room as her do you?" Susie demanded.
"Uuuh, duh," Gary stated.
"NOOO-" I snapped and hit Susie to shut her up. I could see Gary had to hold in his laughter.
"You can share a room with Gary, just shut your damn mouth," I snarled. Before she could open her damn yap again, I snatched the key from her, entered my room, and quickly closed the door.
I let out a sigh of relief. "Freedom..." I hopped onto the bed.
I reached into my bag to get my pokéballs. Mmmh? Where are they? I asked myself as I rummaged through my bag. Oh yeah... They're at the Pokémon Center. I let out a load sigh. Great. Now I'm gonna be lonely.
I rolled over and looked up at the ceiling. Welp, may as well go to sleep. That way I can get up early to go get them! I got up and changed into my dark blue cotton PJ set and snuggled under the covers of the hotel bed. I dug out my MP3, put Future by Paramore on loop and played the song out load. And with that I started to dozed off with a smile on my face.
Gary's POV
I can't believe Lindy stuck me with Susie. Ugh! I opened the door to our room.
"...THANK GOD!" I yelled.
"Aah!" Susie yelped. "Don't scare me like that Gary!"
"Oh. Haha," Oopsies. "Sorry. Just been a really long day Susie. I can't wait to get to bed."
"Oooh! Hehe well lets goo-hey what? There's two beds," Susie said confused.
DAMN RIGHT, BITCH.
"Yeah, looks like I gave the one bed room key to Lindy by mistake," I said to her, concealing my happiness. "Well you can go choose what bed you want. I'm going to go to the car and grab my bag. Feel free to have a shower."
Before I could hear her protest, I went outside. Phew.
Decided to go do some training. Even if you're the best, you can't rest. Don't be surprised if I'm back late. Just lock the door, I've got the key. Bbl. Gary.
I headed to the edge of town. Pewter City is at the end of Viridian Forest. And then there's the Pewter Gym. I'm going to have to train my Charmander and try to find a water Pokémon. It's only twenty-seven past nine. I'll just be sure I'm back by eleven-thirty.
I threw my pokéball into the air when I reached the tall grass.
"Chaaar..." yawned my Pokémon. Charmander looked around, surprised to see that it was dark out. "Mander?"
"Hey buddy," I said as I bent down to pat his head. "Ready for some secret late night training?"
"Char! Charmander!" it cheered, with determination blazing in its blue eyes.
"Glad to hear it! Let's go!" I said.
