oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Nadia slowly opened her eyes and looked at the clock. Bright red numbers told her that it was 7:30. She sighed and rolled out of bed, sliding over to her closet to decide what she was going to wear. She finally decided on a pair of black jeans and a sleeveless black top. She topped the outfit off with a pair of black gloves, boots and sunglasses. Then she went to cook up some pancakes for herself and Aidan.
Aidan's eyes opened and he moaned groggily, rolling off of the bed and onto his feet. The clock read "7:35". He rustled through his closet to find something to wear. He settled with a pair of blue jeans and a tie-dye shirt. He pulled on a pair of pale, fingerless gloves, sandals, and bright green rimmed glasses. He headed down the steps towards the smell of pancakes.
Hearing footsteps on the stairs behind her, Nadia turned around and was greeted by the sight of Aidan coming down the stairs. She nudged a plate full of pancakes towards him, then finished the batch she had on the skillet. After putting hers on a plate and putting butter on them, she washed the skillet, then doused the pancakes in maple syrup. Grabbing a fork out of the drawer, she hopped up on the counter and began to eat.
"We need to be at Prof. Oak's lab at 8, so we have about 15 minutes to eat these, and 10 minutes to get over there." Nadia said, putting another bite of pancake in her mouth and chewing happily.
Aidan fished some strawberries out of the fridge and sliced them onto his pancakes. After applying liberal amounts of syrup he began to eat.
"Okie dokie, artichokie," he responded between mouthfuls.
Nadia looked down at her clothes. "Since when are artichokes black?"
"When they're rotten and moldy," Aidan said sweetly, as he finished his pancakes.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Hello Professor!" Aidan greeted Prof. Oak enthusiastically as he walked into the lab at 7:57. "I'm so excited to get started today!"
"Hiya Professor!" Chirped Naida, coming up behind Aidan. "Can we pick our pokemon now, or do we have to wait for Gary?"
"I'm afraid that I only have three of the same kind of pokemon." Professor Oak told the twins. Then he gestured to a cardboard box against the wall. "They're over there, go pick the one you want."
Nadia slowly approached the box and tentatively peered inside. What she saw nearly made her squeal loudly from sheer cute overload.
Three tiny, baby eevees, playing gleefully all over the bottom of the box. Nadia reached her hand in, and they crowded around it, eager for some attention from the new person. The largest one shoved the others out of the way and looked up at Nadia with sparkling brown eyes, wiggling its tail frantically. She picked it up and it lept at her face, attempting to lick her to death.
"Eek!" Nadia laughed, trying and failing to get away from the Eevee's tongue. She finally got the Eevee under control and settled down in her arms.
Aidan gasped. "Eevee? I love Eevee!" He raced to the box and reached inside. The two remaining Eevee pushed and shoved to get to the hand. Aidan managed to nab the smallest one from the box. It sat in his palm, only slightly bigger than his hand. It leapt up to Aidan's head, and with a great yawn, fell asleep.
Gary strutted into Professor Oak's lab, a large bruise covering his nose. At the sight of Aidan and Nadia holding their Eevees, his smirk turned into a glower. He mumbled something and grabbed up the remaining Eevee, holding by the scruff of its neck. It looked at him rather pitifully.
Professor Oak cleared his throat, catching the trio's attention. "Now that you three have your pokemon, you need your Pokedex's." He handed out the Pokedexes and the Eevee's pokeballs. "Your goal is to fill up the Pokedex with all the pokemon in the world." He explained. "Don't let me keep you from your Journey, though. You three have a lot of work ahead of you. Good luck!"
Nadia thanked the professor, then left, cooing softly to her Eevee.
"Thanks professor," Aidan said, his Eevee still perched on his head. As he left he turned to Gary. "I love what you've done with your nose."
Gary turned five shades of red, returned his Eevee to it's pokeball, and stormed out of the lab.
Nadia was showing her Eevee off to a circle of friends and a couple little girls who had wandered up to see the little pokemon. All of them were cooing over how adorable Eevee was, and how jealous they were that Nadia got such an adorable pokemon to start out with.
"I'm thinking of turning her into a Jolteon when I get a thunderstone..." Nadia mentioned thoughtfully.
"Oh, you should!" Exclaimed Emma. "I've been reading up on Eevees and their evolutions for my school paper, and Jolteon has the best stats of the three evolutions. Flareon is next in line. Do you know what kind Aidan's gonna get?"
"Nope. Let's go ask him!" Nadia trotted off towards her brother, Eevee perched on her shoulder. She inserted herself between Aidan and Chris. "Hiya, boys!" She nudged Aidan. "What are you gonna evolve your Eevee into?"
"I was thinking of getting a Flareon," Aidan replied. "And, sorry Emma, you're wrong. Each of the Eevee evolutions is strong in a certain area, but none of them are 'better' than another. Jolteon's main strength is speed. Vaporeon's is HP or special attack. Flareon's is Special Defense and attack."
"I'm just saying what I read!" Emma defended. "If you have a problem with it, take it up with the author of the book I read, not me!"
"A Flareon, hmm? Did you tell them about Gary or did you leave that great honor to me? PLEASE tell me you left it to me!! I can tell it so much better than you can!!" Nadia exclaimed.
"Well, maybe I will!" Aidan replied, whipping out a fountain pen and a stack of stationary from nowhere. "Yeah, Nadia, the honor is all yours." Aidan continued, as he began to compose his letter.
"ALRIGHT!!" Nadia cheered. She sobered and cleared her throat. "It was a dark and not-so-stormy night...Gary lured me down to the pond and gave me a necklace. Then he asked...no...more like BEGGED me to go on my Pokemon Journey with him instead of Aidan. When I refused, he got all pissy, asked me when I would grow up, and called Aidan stupid. So I punched him!" Nadia grinned and bowed. "Thank you, thank you, I'll be here till noon!"
Just then, Gary drove by in a red convertable with an entourage of cheerleaders in short skirts. The entire group noticed the bruise on his nose. Instead of taunting them like Nadia though he would, he just sighed and drove on.
"Huh." Nadia remarked thoughtfully. "That was big of him..."
"...And finished!" Aidan said, finishing his novel-length letter to the author. "Now, where is the nearest postbox... does anyone have a stamp?"
"You probably need an envelope, too..." Nadia eyed the letter. "Or a box..." Nadia's Eevee butted her lovingly under the chin, begging for attention. Nadia complied, and soon the Eevee was lolling cheerfully in her arms, getting it's belly rubbed. "We have..." Nadia looked at her Beedrill watch. "Two more hours until we have to leave. What are we going to do in the meantime?"
"No worries, I found everything I need!" exclaimed Aidan, again pulling objects seemingly from nowhere. He put the book of a letter into a large box, put a stamp on it, and bustle off to the nearest postbox, trying to shove the box in. He hurried back. "I dunno. We could go into the tall grass right over there and train! Or we could have a battle."
"Well, I meant as a group, BUT YOU'RE ON!" Nadia backed away from Aidan until they were far enough away to battle comfortably. "Prepare to be vanquished..."
"Any bets on who's winning or losing? If you want to bet, now's the time to do it!" Emma yelled, laughing.
"Go on Eevee, just remember: The best defense is a good offense!" Nadia stroked her Eevee's head and gave it a little nudge towards Aidan.
Aidan picked his Eevee off of his head and placed it on the ground. "Don't be scared, just do you best!" He told it, giving it a pat on the head. "You can go first, sis!"
"Why thank you! Eevee! Tackle attack!" Nadia cried. Eevee quickly complied, launching itself at the smaller Eevee.
"Hey, Chris..." Sasha nudged Chris gently in the side with her elbow. "I'll bet you that Aidan's gonna win...If you lose, you have to kiss Nadia in front of all of us. ON THE LIPS."
"Okay Eevee, use your tackle to match its attack!" Aidan called.
"Oh, you're on," Chris said, shaking Sasha's hand. 'Please win, Aidan,' he thought.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Nadia winced as Aidan's Eevee's tackle made a critical hit on her Eevee. Since there was no difference in level, that Tackle nearly KOed Nadia's Eevee.
"Tackle again, Eevee! Give it all you've got!"
"Jump over it Eevee!" Aidan cried. Eevee did as it was told. "Now turn around and use Tackle!"
"ACK! EEVEE!" Nadia's Eevee was left with only a tiny amount of HP and could barely stand up. "I FORFEIT!! I have no revives, and I'm not about to walk to Viridian by myself." Nadia ran up and picked up her Eevee, then spritzed a potion on it. Eevee leaped out of her arms and rubbed up against her leg. She signed, hanging her head in faux shame. "I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO SHOW MY FACE IN PALLET AGAAAAAAAAAAIIIINN!!!!!" She wailed, dramatically putting a hand over her forehead.
"Woo! Go Eevee!" Aidan cheered, as Eevee leapt back onto his head and curled up for a nap.
"Aw, come here Nadia, it'll be okay," Chris said, pulling her into a hug.
"Hopefully." Nadia said, snuggling back. Then she pulled away slightly and looked up at him. Then she looked down at her shoes. "How is it you're still taller than me, when these boots give me at least another inch and a half of height? I hate being short..." She muttered.
"I'm just special," he said grinning. He leaned over and placed his lips on hers.
It seemed like an eternity before they finally broke apart. Unfortunately, eternity wasn't long enough for either of them.
"Heh...Wow..." Nadia grinned after she finally had control over her brain again. "I should just bring you along and have you do that whenever I lose..." She joked.
"Well, that wouldn't be very often then..." Chris muttered, blushing and grinning.
"I'm sure we could think of SOMETHING!" Nadia grinned impishly. "You could kiss me whenever my left foot hits the ground! And to get anywhere, I'd have to hop! But I would have to make sure not to hop on my left foot..."
"Or I could just kiss you now, and then later again..." Chris said, kissing her again.
Nadia was going to comment on this, but she found Chris' lips quite in the way, so she settled on kissing him back.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
A/N: Wow...Look at them go. One little kiss and all of a sudden it turns into a whole big romance...I for one, really like the "You could kiss me whenever my left foot hits the ground!" bit. It made me giggle when I wrote it. By the way, all the A/Ns, unless stated otherwise, are being done by OnyxDispair, because I'm the one who's uploading them and everything.
