"HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRAY!" Touko scream at her now three year old son. He covered his ear and look at his mother. He smile, today was his special day. Touko ran up to him and gave him a big, giant loving hug. She lifted him up and twirled him around the living room. He giggle, even though he barley woke-up.

"Today, my little boy is one year older. You have a special day for you." She said as she sat him down on to the floor. He nodded with a little yawn. He rubbed his eye as he followed his mother to the kitchen. He sat down on a chair and scooted in the table as she papered his favorite breakfasts. Chocolate chip pancake with so bancon, scramble eggs and so apple juice. She sat the plate down then giving him a sweet kiss on his check. He smiled as he stabbed the pancake with his fork.

"Where is my favorite little nephew?" The door swing open. They only truned to see Bianca and Cheren at the door way. Gray jump out of his chair and ran to see them. Bianca expanding her arms to him as he jump into her arms. She squealed and kissed him all around his face. Gray laughed, as she put him down. Gray walk to Cheren. Cheren smiled and pated Gray on the head.

"Happy Birthday kiddo." Cheren said looking at Gray

"Did you bwing me anweethang?" Gray said looking behind them to see a boxes cover in red and black wrapping paper.

"Gray, don't say that. Be happy they came to tell you happy birthday. You don't need a presented for your birthday." Touko came out of the Kitchen and scolded at her son. He frowned and looked at the floor. Then looked back at his mother.

"Sowwy Mommy," He looked back to Bianca and Cheren. " Sowwy Autie Beancu. Sowwy Uncal Shewen."He said turning to face the floor again. Bianca frowned as she bended down to huge him again.

"It's okay, and we did get you something. Cheren give to him please." Cheren nodded handing the present to him. Gray quickly grabbed and started to rip, it was a Zorua doll. Gray quickly huge the doll tight on to his cheek.

"Fanks you. I love it." He said as he pushed the Zorua doll further on to his cheek. He ran to his mother to show off his new toy. Zorua was his favorite Pokémon. That was another thing that remained her of her husband. A knock came to the door. Gray first looked at his mother looking for a sign of approvable, she nodded. He ran up to the door. He had a smile on his face, he hope it was the person that he wish to come on his birthday. But, it was the person that he never want to see in his Birthday or any day of his life.

"Gray! Happy Birthday! How is my buddy on his day?"Touyo said walking in to the house giving him a big hug. Gray try to push Touyo away but, Touyo only tighten the hug. He walk up to Cheren and Bianca to say hi. And last but not least he went to Touko. He hugged her but, this time differently than the other one. He nuzzled her neck. She just sighed, pushed him away, he looked around. After a few hours more people came. She sighed looking at her son and Anthea and Concordia. Touko keep in contact with them. They were a part of N's family; whoever was a part of N's family was also hers. She want to make sure that Gray knew that he had family on his father side. Anybody that could tell anything about his father would make him happy. There were as some team plasma members there, one in the room seemed to care that they were there. Team Plasma had worked their different with all Unova. So no one cared. Gray just thought of them as this dad's friends.

"Just like his Father. Isn't he." Rood said looking at Touko. She looked at him and nodded. Rood sigh. His king, N, was a strong, caring young man. N left a child to be cared by a woman. Rood and the team plasma members did everything they could to help them. When Touko had Gray. Touko sometimes couldn't handle being only 16 years old and having a baby. So, Anthea and Concordia would come and help her. They would teacher the mothering way to feed the baby and other things that were important. After a while, Touko got the hang of it. She thank them but, they would still come over and be with Gray and help Touko in whatever she need.

"Do you have any news about him?" Touko ask Rood. He shook his head. She was hoping that N would send Gray a card or something for Gray. Touko know that Gray was hurt but, he would never show it especial to day.

"Don't give up hope Touko. He gave you his word that he would come back did he," She nodded, "Then don't give up hope. He will come back on matter what. Trust him." Rood said squeezing her shoulder. She smiled and nodded, he was right. She couldn't give up. Gray ran to Rood and huge him. To Gray, Rood was like his Grandfather. (Authors Notes: I forgot how to spell that evil guy's name aka N's daddy and I was too lazy. I would put it in the guy so, yeah.)

"Gwampapa!" Gray cried happily to Rood. Roods smiled and pick him up from the floor.

"Gray, my boy. I brought you something that you would love. Here this from all of us." Rood took out the present from the hand sleeve of his rob and handed Gray a Zekrom wrapping and when he opened there was a golden cube that was in there. It was N's Menger Sponge

"I love it Gwampapa. Thawk you." Gray smile putting it around his neck. Rood smile patting

"It was your fathers. He would want you to have it." Rood told Gray. Gray eyes were filled with sadness but, then they were filled sprinkled with joy. He hold the cube up the cube to meet his eyes. It was the one thing that he had that was his father; he would love it with all his heart until his father was back.

At 7:00 p.m. almost Gray's bed time (lol)

Gray's Pov.

"Give it back, meanie." In reach up to try and grab the cube that Gramdpapa gave to me. But, the monster wouldn't give. He was like 10 ft. taller than me. How can I ever get it? I jump up and down but, it still wasn't ego. He only laughed at me.

"It was my daddy's. Give it back." I said as I stop jumping and look into his wired, twisted brown eyes.

"Oooh, so just because you think that you say it's your dads. Do you really think I'm going to give it back?" He said in a deep anger voice that made me shiver.

"Let me tell you something Gray. N is never coming back. He left you and your mother forever. He forgot about you. He never loved you. So you better stop ever wishing that he would come back for you or your mother. So, start calling me 'daddy' because me and your mother will get marry wither you like it or not." He told me getting to my level. I had it.

"Mommy will never mawwy you. Youw just a monstew. Daddy is coming back." And right there a felt a hand hit my cheek. I felt tears coming out of my eyes. I feel to the floor. I was sting. I cried louder. Hoping mommy would hear me.

"Don't get your hopes up boy. Hmmm." He said throwing back the cube and walking out of my room.

Normal pov.

"Gray my baby. What happened? Aww, my little boy." Touko coming running up stares to Gray's room, where he was crying. He extended his arms to Touko, for a huge of comfort. She picked him up and gave him a loving huge, everyone was gone, and so it was only Touko and Gray. She gave him kisses on the cheek were he cried more. She looked at it and notices a red hand stain. Gray was slapped.

"Gray, you need to tell mommy who hit you. It is very important that you do honey." Touko said softly not to make Gray think that he was in trouble. He looked up at her and said'

"Touyo." Touko sigh and look at Gray. She know that truing his deal down was a good idea. But, she didn't know that it was the best idea. Touyo was nice and give to Gray when she was around but, she know if she left him alone with Gray he would do this or even worst. Touko nodded and smile at him.

"Thank you honey. Touyo won't touch you again, okay. Don't worry. Now let me help with that hit okay." Gray nodded. She sat him on his bad which were oshawott blue. She went to median basket took out a lotion to help with the redness and stinging.

'Really Touyo. And He said that he would be that man for Gray. What man?! All I see is A MONSTER. Gray is right. I was right. Touyo is not the man. Even if N doesn't come. I will wait forever.' Touko said as she went down stairs caring Gray who was already bandage up. It been a long day for both of them Touko was going to call it a day when a knock came to the door.

"Mommy if it's the Monstew. Do note open the doow. He said that you wewe mewwying him. Aew you, mommy? Gray said to her with pleading eyes. She knows what she shook her head. Gray smile know that his mother would never marry that man. She went up to the door, only to see a man deliver man.

"Is Gray Harmonia live here?" The man said. Gray ran up to the door and looked at him. "Please sigh here lady and the gift is all your." Touko signed the paper as for Gray grabbed the boxes. TH man nodded and took the paper and left. Touko close the door and went to Gray to see the present.

"Mommy I wanna open it!" Gray said to his mother as Touko grabbed a knife specially to open things like this. And when she opens it there was a card in it. Touko grabbed the note and open the sealed cared and read it out loud to him:

Don't forget about me because I will never forget about you. Sorry I couldn't keep in touch with you ether. Touko I love you and you're the only one I love next to Gray. Don't fall for Touyo tricks.

"Daddy did wemembew my Biwthday. I know he would newe fowget." Gray said looking at his mother. Touko try to hold back the tears and nodded.

"Gray aren't you going to see what inside?" Touko shook away the tears and look at Gray. He nodded and dug in the box only to pull out a pokeball. He gave her a blank face, before pushing the button. A little fox like pokemon appeared informant of them.

'Zoruuuu' the little pokemon cried happily. 'Are you Gray? N told me about you. I know that we'll be best friend forever.' The Zorua said to Gray
