I looked out my bedroom room pointlessly. I was hoping the rain would stop, but the forecast said an all night down pour.
The weather just had to not be on my side. I suppose my date would be rescheduled or a change of plans. You can't really have a midnight walk with someone when all of earth's water seems to be pouring down all at once.
I hope Silver just has the courtesy to call me about the date even though I figured it was cancelled.
My pokegear began to ring. I looked at the caller ID and saw Silver was calling. It looks like he did have some courtesy.
"Hey Silver, what's up?" I say. "Lyra, that's you, right?" Silver asked. I could barely hear him. The background of the conversation was muffled. Not to mention that Silver voice was shifted.
"Yeah, it's me and you're calling about our date, right? It's okay; I figured it was cancelled for obvious reasons." I say and looked out the window again, watching the rain collide with my window. "Yeah, I was going to cancel it even if the weather was perfect."
What was he saying? "Silver, what do you mean?" "I don't want you anymore!" He shouted in the phone. "Wait, why!"
It was too late; Silver hung up the phone and hung my heart.
"Is that all that happened, Touko?" Touya asked. I nodded my head as the tears came back. The night of my break-up, or false break-up, always shot pain in my heart.
"You said the background of the call was muffled, right?" I nodded again, trying to dry up my tears. I couldn't even speak unless I wanted some sort of odd noise to come out of my mouth.
"Okay, Touko, here's what really happened." I sat down on the ground. I could already tell this was going to be a long story.
"The day you introduced me to Lance, I already knew him." Touya began. "I knew he was into you, mainly because he outright said it as we talked. I tried to defend you, saying you already had a boyfriend and the age difference. But Lance wouldn't listen."
That explained why those two were so cold toward each other when I introduced them formally. They were enemies before I even knew they knew each other.
Touya should have told me that before so I could have avoided the awkward lunch, the fight that got me banned from that restaurant for two years, and the black eyes.
"Okay, you told me why you don't like Lance, he's wanted to date me then you two got into a fight, with you as the victor. And ever since then, you and Lance have had some grudge against each other, but what about the whole Silver thing!" I say with a scratchy voice, predicting the outcome of the impending fight the story had to offer.
"How do you know there was a fight or that I won?" Touya asked, most likely wondering if I already knew the story. I shrugged. "It's not that hard to guess. You are the strongest Trainer in Unova, besides the Champion."
"And how did you know it was a Pokémon battle?" he said in a bored expression, waiting for this trivial story to end. "Lucky guess." I answer, hoping to end this pointlessness. "Now on to the story with Silver and how Lance is the one who dumped posing as Silver over the call."
"Yes, that story."
"Looks like the weather's not going to be too good, Silver. I think you should cancel your date with Lyra." I turned around from the computer screen and faced Silver who was in his apartment kitchen.
Lyra had forced me and Ethan for some "well needed guy bonding" as she put it.
Silver shrugged at my comment. "I'll take my chances."
"There's an 85% chance of a downpour all of Johto. Considering that your date takes place in the Johto region, I would tell Lyra it's off tonight."
"Then we'll fly to Kanto." Silver said matter of factly, returning to the popcorn in the microwave.
"Flying in an all night downpour with a large chance of thunder and lightning? Lyra will just love that. Though she might make it up to you if you run into Tornadus or Thundurus." I say.
"What in Johto is a Tornadus and Thundurus?"
"Exactly, those Pokémon are from Unova."
"Would you stop it with the Unova talk?" Silver complains. "Then you stop the Johto comments! 'What in Johto', is that really something to say?"
"Well, this is entertaining." Ethan says as he walks in the room. "Anyway, if you guys are going to argue, it better be about some quality reason and not just 'stop being so Unova-ish', 'stop being Johto-ish'."
Ethan made a good point. I guess the argument was pretty stupid. "And about those Pokémon, don't they both head north during the evening?"
Silver let a loud, obnoxious groan as Ethan took interest in Unova. He had some philosophy that I was trying to get Lyra to leave Johto and abandon him in the doing of.
But why would I do that? Lyra loves Silver and he loves her back, even if they don't realize it.
"Relax, Silver. I'm just not going to take Lyra away from you. I just think Ethan here wants to see a certain someone." Ethan puts on an innocent smiles and tries to where it, but it's covered up with too much truth.
Silver chuckled. "Yeah, the most annoying couple in all of Johto and Unova combined." Ethan glared at Silver. "And you and Lyra aren't? 'Did I tell you where Silver and I are going?' 'Ethan, look what Silver bought me!' 'Hey Ethan! Did I tell you about my date with Silver last night?' I mean, every girl has a right to like there guy, but you two are just annoying!"
"That is all Lyra. You said nothing about me and don't blame me that she doesn't have anyone to chatter with. Your girl friend is in Unova and they can't video chat all the time. Not to mention that Kris is off somewhere on some other journey." Silver said with a moving argument.
I laughed at this. Even though Silver could get under my skin, he was a good guy. Looks like we're all one big family, counting Ethan too. Wait, was this Lyra's plan.
Suddenly, the door swung open and in came the biggest asshole of all time. "What the hell are you doing here?" The words shot out my mouth on impulse. I may only be Lyra's cousin, but I treat her like a sister. This guy was no good and she had no idea.
"Dude, what's your problem with Lance?" Ethan asked. I glanced over my shoulder. I couldn't see Ethan, but Silver looked deadly.
"Besides the fact he just barged into my apartment uninvited, a lot." Silver spit out. If his eyes could light fires, this entire building would be in ashes.
Ethan laughed nevervously. "Look at the time; I got to go before my show gets on!" Ethan flashed out of the door and Lane slammed it behind him.
"So we meet again, Champion Touya and Champion's boyfriend Silver." Lance hissed. "Why are you here and what the hell do you want?" Silver was trying to keep his cool, but he would soon lose it. I think I'm just here to make sure murder isn't committed.
Lance laughed darkly. "I'm only here for one thing and that would be your girl, Silver." Silver lunged at Lance, but he was pushed off with ease. I came behind him quickly. I knew he was no good.
Unfortunately, I was pushed aside too and before we knew it, Silver and I were duck taped to chairs.
It began to rain outside. "Get out of my pants!" Silver yelled. As wrong as that sounded, I saw that Lance was searching through Silver's pants pockets. "Rapist." I muttered.
Lance removed Silver's pokegear from his pants. "Now I'm just going to call Lyra and tell her the bad news."
"What bad new?" I yelled. Lance gave a dark grin. "That she won't have a boyfriend anymore."
Before Silver could shout, the two of us were gagged and Lance dialed Lyra's number.
"And that's the story, do you understand now?" I nodded my head. I had no idea that Silver didn't break-up with me. "Are you going to get back together with him?"
I pondered on this. Was I really going to go back with Silver? He didn't mean to hurt me; it was all because of Lance. But would I really be thinking about this if I really, truly still loved him. I was still thinking of N. Who was he? Why does he support that idiotic liberation plot? What can I do to help him?
"I…I don't know." Touya looked shocked. "But Lyra-" "I know, I know. I'm just not sure that I want to now."
Touya glared at me. "Oh, I see how it is. Go with the bad guy, right? I guess it's okay to like the evil type."
"Touya, I can change him! I've done it before!" I shout. "Whatever Lyra, leave Silver heartbroken. I see how it is."
Touya called out his Unfezant and got on. "Touya wait." "There's nothing more, if you don't want to be Lyra anymore, then fine. Good luck Touko, I hope I never see you again."
With that, Touya flew off.
