It's the end of summer soon, NUUU D:
Oh well, I managed to type up a few chapters of pokemon before I went back, so I guess that's good. Sorry for the late update. I've been taking summer classes and have been working, so things have been hectic for me. College sucks.
But I have a few more chapters for you guys, if you review that is :)
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon, if I did I wouldn't have to take breaks to work and would be writing poke-porn all day.

Violet City: Karen's House
Silver let out an annoyed sigh when he felt the small pokes and prods of consciousness pull him from slumber. The redhead felt like he hadn't slept this good in a while, and all he could feel was warmth. Feeling completely sated for the first time in a very long time, he didn't want to leave his cocoon of contentment anytime soon.
The redheads brows furrowed in confusion when he felt the warmth move, and then let out a sigh. This confused Silver, as last he checked warmth didn't have the capacity to do either of those things. After a bit of contemplating, Silver decided it couldn't hurt to take a look at what was making the odd sensations. After a bit of struggling, Silver managed to open one of his eyes a bit to look.
His eyes snapped open at the sight in front of him.
Ethan was out like a light, the younger boys arms wrapped around Silver's neck and his head resting lightly on the older boy's chest. He was lying with his legs on either side of Silver, effectively straddling the elders hips as he slept. The raven haired boy's warmth immediately registered within the redhead's brain, and Silver felt a tingling feeling pool within his stomach, making it difficult for him to keep his heart-rate from increasing.
Silver was at a loss of what to do. He kind of wanted Ethan to wake in an embarrassing state, but at the same time he wanted to get out of this dangerous situation as quickly as possible. Resolving the issue in his head, Silver began to get up, trying his best to do it carefully as he rolled the boy off of him onto his back. Silver felt himself begin to panic when he saw the boy begin to wake, but let out a sigh of relief when he managed to get Ethan off of him just as the boy began to stir.
Ethan opened his eyes slowly, his vision focusing as he looked about sleepily. Once his eyes came into focus he noted that he wasn't the only one in the room. The raven haired boy's eyes shined a glimmering blue when they landed on his redheaded companion. "You stayed…" Ethan said with a tone of relief as he smiled brightly, "Good morning Silver…" Ethan said happily from his spot on the bed. Silver flushed and looked away, "G-good morning to you too…" Silver responded with a not-too-confident air.
At this point, Marill and Quilava were both awake and staring at their trainers. Quilava looked at the two trainers with a look of confusion before muttering quietly to the blue mouse pokemon beside him. Marill stared at the two for a little bit curiously, before smiling with a mischievous grin at an idea that popped into her head. The blue pokemon snuck toward the bed, and hopped up onto the mattress directly behind Silver, who was kneeling in front of Ethan as they exchanged morning pleasantries. With a soft "Rill~" the blue pokemon swatted Silver's back with her tail, sending the taller boy flying forward on top of the younger unsuspecting trainer.
Silver's eyes widened as he looked at the predicament he was now in. He had fallen forward, managing to catch himself just before he banged foreheads with Ethan, his elbows supporting him on either side of the raven haired boys head. His chest and hips were flush with the younger trainers, which caused that warm feeling in his lower body to intensify. To make matters worse, Ethan had attempted to stop the redhead from crashing into his head by wrapping his legs around his waist, which in hindsight probably wouldn't have worked very well anyway.
It didn't take Ethan long to realize the position they were in, before he flushed and looked away in embarrassment. Had the situation called for it, Silver would have probably teased him about noticing, seeing as the boy was fairly dense about everything else that happens that causes the redhead discomfort. Still, the situation didn't call for it, and both boys were in a state of embarrassed shock, not really sure what to do.
Still, even now Silver stared down at the boy and couldn't help but see how attractive he was in this state. The younger boy's cheeks were flushed in embarrassment, and his dark hair was sticking out every which direction. Even though the boys dark hair was in a state of disarray it managed to frame his face in a way that made the younger trainer look very alluring. Silver felt his breath catch in his throat when Ethan turned his head back to face him, his golden blue eyes shining up at him with a worried shyness. The light from the morning sun shined through the window and fell upon the younger boy, giving him a beautiful and attractive glow. Before he knew it, Silver was leaning down, entranced by the others beauty, and felt himself grow light as he neared the boy's lips.
"I hope I'm not interrupting anything."
With a jolt, Silver hopped up off Ethan as if he had been burned, turning with an embarrassed gaze over to an amused Karen. Her Umbreon was sitting at her feet, the two of them staring at the couple on the bed. Silver flushed at the stare and looked away with slight annoyance, "It wasn't what it looked like. I slipped and fell on him is all." Silver said with a hint of annoyance.
Ethan quickly picked up the annoyed tone in Silver's voice, and felt a small pang in his heartstrings. Dismissing it as a feeling of pity for Silver's embarrassed state, the boy scratched the back of his head before staring up at Karen, "Please don't pick on him. He really did only just slip…" Ethan added weakly, his head bowing down as he spoke.
Karen's eyes softened when she saw the younger boy, already seeing through his emotional state. Still, she figured it wasn't her place to act as a catalyst in their relationship, so she let the matter be. Smiling, the silverette looked up to Silver, who was currently staring at her with a look of extreme dislike. Karen ignored this before stretching, "I was just teasing, nothing to get upset about. Anyway I came up here to tell you I've made breakfast for the two of you, but Will just called me saying that Lance needs me over at Mt. Silver." She said with a bored tone as she kneeled down and pet her embreon, the dark pokemon letting out a "Bershaaa" as it was pet. "I have to leave, but you boys can let yourselves out whenever you're done eating and ready to go." Karen said as she stood up and turned to leave. She stopped abruptly and turned to the two of them, "Also, It's very important that you remember that the two of you are always welcome here, so if you ever need anything…" She stared up at Silver, and then turned to look at Ethan "…Anything at all you know where this house is." She said with a smile.
Ethan looked up, smiling brightly as he got up and bowed, "Thank you Karen. I'll keep that in mind on my journey" The raven haired boy said brightly. Silver just scoffed, "Yeah, me too I guess…" Silver stated lamely, not wanting to admit it was a little comforting knowing he had somewhere to return to if things got rough on his journey. Karen smiled, and with a wave, she turned and left. Going downstairs and leaving for her trip.
It took about five seconds after the front door had closed for both Ethan and Silver to realize they were alone, and had been left with nothing but the events of the morning. Ethan flushed as he thought on it, and held his hands behind his back, twiddling them nervously as he thought on it. Ethan couldn't help but feel like Silver had tried to kiss him, and could help it even less that he wanted to ask about it. So after steeling himself, and forcing down a blush that was forming on his cheeks, the young breeder opened his mouth, "Silver I-"
"I'm sorry for earlier. It won't happen again."
Ethan felt the rest of his words deflate into a breathy "what?" as he stared up at Silver with a confused glance. The red haired boy looked back at him with the blankest and most emotionless expression Ethan had ever seen on a person. "I fell on top of you and made you uncomfortable, and you even had to speak up to Karen on my account for my blunder." Silver stated in a matter-of-fact tone. Ethan looked at him in mild confusion, "W-Well… I didn't want her picking on you. We're only human after all, and everyone makes mistakes, so I didn't want her making fun of you for something like that…" Ethan reasoned quietly.
Silver stared at the boy for a few seconds, seeing his uncomfortable stance, before closing his eyes and turning away from him, "Yes, this was a mistake. One that will not happen in my presence again…" Silver said with an annoyed tone.
Ethan felt that tug at his heartstrings again, and looked down quietly, "O-oh… okay…" The raven haired boy said as he felt a strange feeling well up in his chest "Of course…" Ethan said quietly.
Silver saw the boy's body language, and mistook it for discomfort in being around him. The redhead walked up to the younger boy, and put a hand on his shoulder, feeling a bit disgusted with himself when he saw Ethan flinch from his touch. "I hope this doesn't damage our friendship." Silver said quietly as he watched the boy who refused to meet his eyes, his current expression a mystery.
Ethan stayed silent for a few moments before turning his head up which, to Silver's surprise, held a bright and beaming smile, "Of course not! It was only an accident." Ethan said brightly before scratching the back of his head, "You said you didn't mean to right? Then forget about it and move on." Ethan chirped before backing up and grabbing his hat from the drawer by the bed, setting it on his head and stretching out with a smile, "Now, I'm starving! Why don't we go downstairs and get some food?" The raven haired boy said with a toothy grin as he grabbed the rest of his stuff.
Silver watched in shock as the young breeder got his stuff packed and woke up his pokemon like nothing had happened. The redhead took this as a sign that Ethan felt no ill will toward him, and was willing to overlook his little stunt if he was. The redhead felt a pang of disappointment when he realized this meant he was being rejected, but at the same time he felt a bit relieved that it meant that their friendship wouldn't be damaged. Silver felt a smile tug at his lips, and he turned to follow Ethan, who was waving at him from the door with all their pokemon grouped at the top of the stairs, ready to go down for some food. Silver followed the boy, and felt like even though he was attracted to the raven haired trainer he could keep his feelings in check if it meant that their friendship would stay intact.
The rest of the morning went without incident, Ethan and Silver going downstairs and eating breakfast with their pokemon and talking about nothing in particular. They even took the dishes and washed them, working together to make sure that the dining table and the kitchen were spotless so they didn't leave the house in an unsightly manner. When they were all done, Silver and Ethan put their pokemon back in their pokeballs, save for Marill who insisted on following Ethan on foot, and headed for the door. Silver all too ready to get back on the road.
Silver paused at the door when he heard the other trainer's steps slow. Turning with a curious gaze, the redhead saw Ethan standing a ways behind him, scratching the back of his head, "I'll leave in a minute; I think I left something upstairs, so you go on ahead without me." Ethan said with an apologetic expression. Silver sighed, smiling at the other boy, "You'd lose your head if it wasn't attached wouldn't you?" Silver said in a teasing tone. Ethan scratched the back of his head, "Possibly…" Ethan said as he laughed weakly. Silver shrugged, "Alright, well I'll see you around then." The redhead said with a wave of his hand, turning without a second glance to the door and walking away, closing it shut behind him.
Ethan felt his legs shake the second the door closed, and he fell to the floor with a light thud. The Raven haired trainer looked down at the floor with a dull expression, the pang in his chest feeling like his heart had been ripped out and left to dry as he recalled the events of the morning in his head.
This didn't go unnoticed by his Marill, who was staring at her master a little ways away from him with a concerned expression. The blue mouse pokemon ran up to her master, and tugged at his shirt with a soft "rill~" as she tried to get him to look at her. When their eyes met, Marill couldn't help but feel the pain emanating from the young boy, and raised her small paws in a 'pick me up' motion.
Seeing this, Ethan felt tears well up in his eyes, and with a shaky intake of breath finally exhaled with a bitter, frustrated cry. The dark haired boy picked up his Marill, hugging her and crying quietly as he buried his tear stained face into the soft fur of his little pokemons head. "I-I'm such a-an idiot…" Ethan blubbered out bitterly as his tears fell in a steady stream down his face, "What is this? Why does it hurt?" Ethan said as he tried desperately to understand the pangs in his chest at Silver's words, feeling a bout of sadness as he recalled how easily Silver had brushed off the intimacy between them like nothing.
Marill looked up at her trainer with concern, snuggling up to him and cooing in a reassuring manner. She felt like she was partially responsible for his distress, as she realized she was the one who initiated the contact between the two boys. Still, the blue mouse thought that maybe the contact would jumpstart the relationship she knew Ethan had been craving. It wasn't hard for the pokemon to see that her master had developed a place in his heart for the other trainer, even if Ethan didn't realize it himself.
After a while, Ethan's cries grew silent and the raven haired trainer stood up, still holding his Marill in his arms. The raven haired trainer looked down at his Marill, smiling sadly, "Well, whatever this is, I'm sure it'll go away on its own. After all, Silver's my good friend now and I should be happy that we have such a good relationship despite the short time we've known eachother…" Ethan said quietly.
Marill smiled brightly and let out an energetic "Rill!" at her masters words. She knew that her beloved trainer could see the positives about any situation, no matter how bad they were, and was happy that the incident wasn't getting him down.
Ethan beamed down at his energetic pokemon, before dropping her down on the floor, the blue mouse landing on her round tail and bouncing down with a small plop. The trainer wiped his eyes to rid himself of the excess tears. He stretched out as far as he could go, feeling the tension from his little outburst wash out of him like when one wrings out a wet towel. Feeling much better, he turned to grab his pack from the floor.
He felt it was time to pay a visit to his grandparents.
