Paul Pov.

"I swear they came this way last night I saw them Cyrus!" my snap open and I silently hiss to myself as the sharp rays of sunlight hit my sensitive eyes. I look over to see Steven laying soundly asleep next to me.

Thank goodness he didn't snore! I detach him from my side and manage to slide his shirt and pants on slightly so he is somewhat decent before tossing my own clothes back on my body.

"Vicky you are wasting my time now ere are they?!" Cyrus's voice was high but still filled with no emotion. I rolled my eyes and didn't even bother to try to find out how he managed to keep up that façade for most of his life. At the moment I needed to make sure they didn't find us.

"Cyrus sir, trust me they are probably just at the Pokémon center or something. You know how slow he is..." "Humph, well then we will wait." "Damn it!" I hiss under my breath, if there was one thing I knew for certain about my father was that he was VERY patient and would wait for us for days and days!

I had to find a way to sneak us out incognito because if we ran into them before we could shower, it would be pretty obvious what we had done the night before. Vicky was smart when it came to that stuff, she was on to Reggie and me before, trying to catch me with Steven would be pretty easy for her.

I bit down on my lip as I tried to scramble my thoughts together and decipher a plan, but while I was trying to get my mind together I heard Cyrus say something that made my stomach turn.

"We are going to have to kill that one boy, what's his name. Oh yes, Barry. He gets in the way to much and it would be another person less that we have to worry about."

"Right away sir! It would be my pleasure to get rid of him myself. That is, only if you don't mind." "Of course not, and when this is over we will probably dispose of Steven too.."

Oh hell no, they can't sit there and take everything away from me just like that! I wanted to jump out of the underbrush and strangle them both, but Vicky said something that brought like to something else. "But..but Cyrus we can't just uh- get rid of him and well.

It wouldn't be practical," she said stumbling over her words. I had a feeling that Cyrus was raising his ever emotionless eyebrows now. "How wouldn't it be practical?"

"Well- because, I'll find a use for him some how..." I almost wanted to laugh. There was one thing Vicky was horrible at doing and that was lying.

The way she tripped and stumbled over her own words made it crystal clear that she had a thing for Steven. My Steven, I thought greedily to myself. He wasn't technically mine, but still the thought of her having her hands on him made me want to choke somebody. I shook those thoughts away as I decided that I really needed to get the hell out of here and stop ease-dropping.

"Argh..." I heard Steven groan as he was slowly waking up. He may be a quiet sleeper but he was surely loud when he woke up. Thank goodness that Cyrus and my aunt were to deep in conversation to notice his soft groans.

I let out a breath of relief before taking it back in as I realized we weren't out of the woods yet. Finally I had thought of an idea, I was going to have to seduce Steven to keep him quiet. I crawled over to him as quickly and quietly as I could before putting my hand over his mouth just as he was fully waking up.

I could feel the smirk on his lips as he flipped me over causing me to land on my back with him on me. "I love you," he whispers in my ear. I blush and smile forgetting about our situation for just a moment as he trails soft kisses along my neck causing me to gasp softly.

The sound of Vicky's wicked and dry laughter snapped me out of my daze. I swallowed nervously and thought quickly on what to tell Steven. "Who is that?!" Steven whispers nervously to me, "I don't know but they have scared me Steven can we please leave?"

I stop and thinks for a second, "Are you sure I can't just talk to them? I mean what did they say..." I cut him off, "Steven please!" I hiss out pushing out fake tears with it.

He nods and wipes my face and kisses my tears, "It's okay, we can go." I let out a sigh of relief, glad that he believed me. Once we were far away from them we stopped at a small lake to clean up. I lowered myself into the water and relaxed, glad that the water was actually warm and not freezing cold.

It was nice to clean up after not showering in who knows how long. Steven slowly snaked his arms around me from behind making me blush and lean into his embrace.

"Are you okay?" he whispers into my ear. I lay my head back into his chest, and nod, "Yeah, I'm okay." "Good, but why where you so tense earlier?" he asks massaging my shoulders soothingly.

"Yeah..I'm fine I just don't want to lose you..to anybody," I explain sliding down into the water in embarrassment Steven slowly massages my stomach and pulls me up out of the water kissing me on the cheek. I blush and we decide to climb out before we get all wrinkly from the water.

I am about to put my old clothes back on when Steven pulls out a pair of fresh ones for me. "Here, I packed you some." I smile, "Thanks, you're a life saver," I say kissing him softly on the lips.

I finally get dressed and decide to take a nap while Steven did whatever he was doing. I feel soft kisses trail up my neck making me shift slightly in my sleep as I push their face away.

"Ugh...not now Stevie..." "Steven?" I shift awake and snap my eyes open, "Barry!" I gasp. "Ssh," he says putting a finger to my lips. I blush and look over behind him to see Steven sleeping peacefully, also I notice that it was late into the night.

"Barry what are you doing here Steven could wake up and-," he cuts me off, "Don't worry, I had Roserade make sure that he won't wake up for a while." I see the smirk fill his face as he locks me in a deep kiss, pulling me on his lap. I slip my tongue into his mouth already turned on by Barry's leg rubbing between mine.

I moan into his mouth as he massages my sides and flips me on my back kissing my stomach lightly. "I love you...I love you so much..." Barry says after a deep and passionate kiss to my lips.

I hear Steven start to shift in his sleep. "Roserade, sleep powder." Roserade goes to use the attack but the usual yellowish power doesn't come out.

"Damn it!" Barry hisses under his breath giving me one last kiss on the cheek. "I love you Paul, don't forget that." He runs off just as Steven wakes, up. "Everything okay? I think I fell asleep!"

I smile nonchalantly and run over to give him a quick kiss, "Yeah, I'm okay. Everything going to be perfect just wait and see." Steven looks at me curiously but then shakes his head. "Okay, I'll take your word for it."

Me: Now what the hell is Paul up too?!

Vicky: Idk but i will catch him this time!

Me: *rolls eyes* Good luck with that one!
