Chapter 5: Yellow Meets a Pervert
A/N: I know, that's not a kid-friendly chapter name. Why else is this story T-rated and not K or K+? Bleah, I hope I won't go into M...
...
Yellow and Blue waved bye to the two boys. Red waved back while Green just nodded with his arms folded. Tch.
After the boys left, Yellow and Blue looped around back to the airport to meet their mothers.
"So, Yellow, how do you feel about Kanto?" Blue's mother said.
"Um..." Yellow had no idea what to say, since she'd been in Kanto for only a few hours. Not counting that experience many years back. She had been trying to forget it, but was failing miserably.
"Oh, never mind what I said," Blue's mum apologised sheepishly.
"..." Yellow simply nodded.
"So..." Blue said, as though she was struggling about a topic to chatter about. "I'll introduce you to my other friends on Monday, Yells, so don't you worry."
I never said that, "Yells" thought.
Blue suddenly perked up. "Hey, Yellow! How about tomorrow we watch the boys go at each other again?" she suggested.
Yellow had no idea what to say at this sudden twist.
"It's kinda irritating when I'm trying to have my say," Blue added hastily, "but when I'm bored... The arguing is kinda like my entertainment cos when the boys argue, it's really funny. If I were to film it, I'd add the laughter." Her grin got bigger. "Hey, maybe I should get all the boys to argue together for fun."
A giga-normous sweat-drop formed on Yellow's head. "E-entertainment?!"
Blue nodded eagerly. "Yeah!" she enthused.
Yellow suddenly realised that she didn't have a say in the matter; even if she tried to argue, she would end up going with Blue's way in the end.
"Fine..." Yellow mumbled.
...
It was eight at night. The Noctowls outside were flirting (in Pokémon langugage) under the moon. It was a pretty romantic sight.
Good for dating cute guys like Red... Yellow thought, a fangirly sigh escaping from her lips. She jolted up when she suddenly realised what she thought.
Yellow was soon held captive by her imagination and thoughts (while the Johto Idol occasionally interrupted). She wondered what Blue's other friends were like. She knew that Blue definitely had plenty of guy friends, but Blue probably also had loads of female friends.
What are they like? I hope they aren't carbon copies of Green and Red... No offense, Christmas colours... Yellow thought. Christmas colours! Good grief, what was I thinking?! Sheesh!
...
The next day, Yellow found herself in Blue's living room. She and Blue were watching the "Christmas colours" go at it again (translation: arguing). Strangely, Blue's mum didn't seem perturbed by the noise. It then struck Yellow that maybe Blue's mum already knew that the boys argued often and was therefore immune.
"How do you get used to it?" Yellow asked Blue.
Blue laughed. "You don't! You just take the backseat and enjoy the ride, no matter how bumpy it may be," she explained.
Yellow nearly fell out of the couch. Blue had known the two boys for heck-knows how long, and she still wasn't immune. Maybe she didn't have her mum's ammunition.
"Of course I can defeat that psychic chick!" Red said defensively. "What makes you think I can't?! I've already defeated Brock, Misty, Surge, Erika and Janine!"
Green shrugged. "Maybe you'll totally swoon over her." His smirk grew wider.
"I won't," huffed Red. "I don't like her that way. In fact, I barely know her!"
"Many guys don't know what Misty's like, but that hasn't stopped them from falling head over heels in love with her," Green pointed out. Then something else struck him. "Ah, maybe Misty's the love of your life."
Yellow's eyes widened, Blue glared at Green for his stupidity and Red fell out of couch.
"Me? Like Misty?" Red choked. "Heck no! And what would you know anyway?"
"Ah, there's nothing like a dose of girl-boy drama," Blue muttered into Yellow's ear. "Don't let Green fool you - believe it or not, he's actually quite serious."
Yellow's eyes grew to the size of dinner plates. "You're kidding me, right? You're totally kidding me."
Blue shook her head seriously. "I'm drop-dead serious," she insisted. "There's two sides to him: one's that super serious side I told you about, the other is the super cocky side displayed now."
"Who's drop-dead serious about what?" Red echoed (well, not counting that he ad-libbed the "about what" and "who's").
Blue stuck out her tongue. "Not telling." Turning to Yellow, she said quietly, "But I can't guarantee who Red likes for sure."
"Oh boy." Yellow felt a shiver go down her spine.
...
It was Monday, Yellow's first day at Rainbow Celadon Academy, which was probably the lamest-ever-named school in the entire of Kanto (Johto's was "Plain Academy", Hoenn's was "Treetop School for Treetop Students" and Sinnoh's was "Beacon Center").
Yellow met Blue at Viridian, where the brunette was waiting with the boys, who were strangely not arguing unlike on the weekend.
"We're too swamped from our previous days' snippets," Red explained. "Besides, we're stuck for ideas."
Yellow remained silent in shock and amusement.
...
Yellow made her way through the throngs of students in the Pokéteria while carrying a rather heavy tray.
"BWEEET!"
Yellow's ears perked up because the whistle was very familiar. She hurried in that direction and soon found herself in front of Blue.
And a bunch of people whom Yellow didn't know (save for Red and Green).
A boy wearing a cap (but wasn't Red) stood up with a huge grin. "Hey there! I'm Gold! Gold of New Bark Town. And nowhere else!" He leaned forward and shook Yellow's hand vigorously. He sounded like an advertiser for New Bark Town or something.
"Gold!" a girl with her blue hair tied up in ponytails reprimanded. "You're supposed to stay three arms length away from any girl ever since that thing happened!" She cleared her throat. "I'm Crystal," she said politely. "But call me Crys."
A red-haired boy stared at Yellow. "Silver..."
"Oh, ho there!" a girl with brown ponytails yelled. "I'm Lyra, Crystal's cousin!"
A girl with slight fangs placed her left arm around a boy wearing a beanie, her right around a boy with croissant-style hair, pulling them into a tight hug of sorts. "Sapphire here!" she boomed. "Boy on my left is Ruby - though he's a bit girly - and boy on my right is Emerald!"
"Ack..." the two boys who were in Sapphire's tight death grip groaned.
A young girl with dark indigo hair bowed in an overly polite manner. "I'm sorry for my late introduction," she said. "My name is Platinum Berlitz, but please just address me by my first name, because we are friends." She smiled at Yellow.
"Late, she says," a boy with blond hair sniggered. "Oh, yeah, yes, right, okay, ho ho, on it!" He rushed to compose himself (or not). "I'm Pearl! And ignore what nonsense I said earlier."
"Please," Platinum mumbled.
"Please!" Pearl echoed.
Yellow sweat-dropped.
"And I'm Diamond, but just call me Dia, please," a boy who seemed like a glutton said.
Soon, there was a lot of chatting, laughing and joking going on, but Yellow could only wonder what to tell her mum when she went back home later ("Hey Mum, guess what? I'm friends with a pervert!"). No, that was terrible.
Oh well, the blonde teen thought. After all, it was great. The day...
Except for the girl approaching them.
...
A/N: I know, the last part was terrible.
LOL, cliffhanger much?
