Okay, so I finally have the first real chapter up and going! This story, as I said before, is all-new territory, so I'm having a little troublr writing it. Anything you think I should fix, please tell me!

Disclaimer: I own absolutely, positively nothing!

SAPPHIRE'S POV

"And then I was sewing Nana a new sweater and I ran out of thread, so I went up to my room and…" I was struggling to keep my eyes open as Ruby kept talking about his "huge sweater catastrophe". Ruby glanced at my tired face. "Do you even know what I was talking about?"

I sat up and yawned. "Something about a sweater?" I asked hopefully.

He smirked. "You're lucky. I'll let you slide this time."

I gave him a sheepish grin and slumped in my seat on the plane. "How long have we been on this thing?" I whined.

He chuckled. "Two hours. One more hour and we have to wait for our next three-hour flight that'll take us to Unova."

I groaned. "I'm bored."

"Then go back to sleep."

I stretched my arms above my head. "I'm not tired anymore."

Ruby moaned. "What do you wanna do?"

"I wanna get off this friggin' plane!" I growled.

He facepalmed and handed me a book. I looked at it in disgust and tossed back into his lap. "Not happening, prissy boy. Any other ideas?"

"I can tell you the time I got second place in a contest in Hearthome City in Sinnoh, and I honestly deserved first, so I marched up to the head of the contest hall there, and I said "Why'd you give that woman first place? I honestly deserved first!""

Ruby wouldn't shut his trap long enough to even notice that I started to fall asleep, blocking out his story completely.

XXXXX

I walked up the huge, winding walkway that I knew so well with Ruby trudging behind me. "How are you so awake?" he moaned.

I gave him an irritated look. "I wasn't the one continuously yappin' about his contest problems! I was sleeping!" He rolled his eyes and followed me towards the large building looming in the distance. I ran as fast as I could without my luggage dragging me to the ground. I banged noisily on the office door, waiting for someone to let me in. When Ruby finally caught up to me, he collapsed in a heap of bags and suitcases. I simply ignored him and continued to bang on the door.

The door finally opened, revealing a smiling Professor Juniper. "Good evening, Sapphire! I haven't seen you in awhile. I have your schedule in my office. Please–" She stopped talking as she noticed Ruby in a huge pile, passed out in between all of his stuff.

I waved my hand and walked into her office. "He'll wake up eventually. Just give me his schedule and I'll have the boys know he's here."

Professor Juniper smiled and handed me our schedules. "I hope you have a great school year." I nodded and quickly took some tape off her desk. Ruby was lying in the hallway, sleeping peacefully. I taped his schedule to his forehead and gazed at my handiwork.

"That should do." I said to myself as I ran up the stairs to the dorm rooms.

XXXXX

I gripped my dorm key tightly as I shoved it into the keyhole and turned it slowly. I slowly pushed the door opened, and I was practically trampled my three best friends. "Sapphire! You're finally here!" "We've been waiting for half an hour!" "How was your summer? What'd you do?"

I smiled as I returned their group hug. "I've missed you guys so much!" They backed up so we could all get a look at each other. Blue had a baby blue tank top on with white short shorts, mischief still in her light blue eyes. Crystal was wearing a yellow and white striped tee with jean Capri's, a pencil behind her ear like usual. Yellow was wearing a cute white tee with swirly designs and an orange skirt, her yellow hair running down her back. I looked down at myself. I had a dark blue tee with black athletic shorts, and my bandana was tied on my head.

"You don't know how painful summer is when you're neighbor is Ruby."

Blue sighed. "My summer was great! I got to flirt with Green the whole time, and Yellow got to talk to Red." Blue wiggled her eyebrows at Yellow, whose face reminded me of a tomato.

"I-it wasn't l-like that!" she stuttered. "W-we just did s-some pokémon t-training and stuff."

I patted her shoulder. "Just ignore her. Arceus only knows what she was doing." Blue's face faintly turned pink, and Yellow's grew even redder, if it was possible. Crystal and I laughed as all four of us sat down.

"My summer was officially the worst. I got a summer job at Professor Elm's." Crystal said.

I raised an eyebrow. "I'm not good with the science-y stuff, but isn't that good?"

"Not when Professor Elm's neighbor is Gold it isn't." I started laughing hysterically and Blue joined in.

"That's like me on steroids." Blue said through fits of laughter. Yellow even had to giggle. Crystal had her arms crossed over her chest.

"So we all had to deal with the boys." Yellow said once we all calmed down.

My eyes widened. "I almost forgot!" I shouted as I bolted up from my bed. "I have to tell the boys that Ruby's passed out in the main hallway. We don't need him getting trampled!" All my friends face palmed as I went towards the doors.

I bolted right out of the door and ran into something, or someone. "Whoa Sapph! What are you doing?"

I slowly gazed up at Ruby, and I felt the heat immediately rise to my cheeks. I quickly scrambled out of his arms and stood up straight, staring quietly at my feet. "I was just, y'know, gonna say hi to the guys and stuff." He nodded and started to pick up his fallen luggage. I turned on my heel and headed back to my dorm room, my face glowing red.

'Why does he have to do that?'

Was it good? Did you like it? I get so nervous when I write this story 'cuz I'm afraid you guys won't like it!
