{Please, Derek, don't do this. I gave up everything for you. Please stay with me} A Delphox cried to a Human named Derek.
"you think I would ever love something like you? Just a stupid Pokemon? You meant nothing to me." What Derek said stabbed her in her heart; his words hurt her so bad she never said back as she watched her love of life leave the empty street.
{Please...no} The Pokemon choked out as she broke into tears, crying her crush's name {Derek...Derek...I need you...I... loved you}
The Pokemon cried as tears flooded her eyes. She couldn't believe he could toss her aside so quickly.
As she cried, she felt someone grab her shoulder. "Serena?" She noticed the voice was familiar; she looked and saw it was her close friend Humphrey. His blue eyes looked at her with concern.
"Serena, what are you doing here, and why are you doing here?" he asked, getting something for her to wipe her tears.
{It...Derek, he broke up with me...} she cried.
Humphrey's concern soon turns into rage as hearing Derek's name and his breaking up with Serena makes him even more furious.. he is going to pay for doing this to her. Humphrey tried to soothe Serena by hugging her as she cried even more, even though she loved him... Humphrey, why did...he-he do this to me}
"It's okay. I am here, Serena,"
They stay in that spot for a while as the sad Pokemon cries her heart out onto Humphrey's shoulder, drenched in tears, but he doesn't care. He wants Serena to feel better. She cries and cries until she stops crying. "How you holding up there? As she moved off his shoulder {Miserable} pingpinningears off.
Humphrey gave her a napkin. Here you go," she smiled before taking the napkin to e her face off {Thank you}
Humphrey looked at her. Seeing her feel somewhat relieved made him relieved too.
"You want me to walk you home?" he asked as she nodded. "Alright, let's go. It's getting quite late." Serena looked around and saw he was right. It was getting nighttime. As she got up with some help from Humphrey, they started walking. They didn't say much until Serena spoke up {Thank you for staying with me}
" no problem, thanks for letting my shoulder dry," he chuckled, making her laugh. {Sorry}
"It's okay. I was only kidding," Humphrey said, ensuring he didn't mean to offend her.
She laughs again {I know}
Humphrey was glad he was making her feel somewhat better about her current situation; making her laugh was refreshing to hear from him, even though he would make Derek pay, making his friend hurt so much.
The two walked without saying much, with Humphrey occasionally looking over to Serena to see how she was feeling, seeing she was staring at the ground before she noticed Humphrey was looking, which made him look away from her
As they finally reach their destination, Serena's house, "Here we go, Home Sweet Home," Humphrey said, looking at Serena
Serena walked up about to unlock her front door, but she stopped and looked back at Humphrey before showing a slight smile {Thanks, Humphrey, thanks for watching over me}
"heh, yeah sure that's what childhood friends do, I guess." Humphrey chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of his neck and looking away.
"You going be alright right?" Humphrey asked, concerned about her.
{Yeah I be fine I probably need some time alone}
Humphrey sigh before digging into his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper and a broken pencil and began to write something when he was done he walked up to Serena, giving it to her
{What is this}
"My number, I know we never talk much but if you ever need someone to talk to give me a call alright; "
{Alright I will thanks again} Serena looked at Humphrey with smile, taking the number.
"I guess I see you later, but like I said, if you need someone to talk to, I am here for you."
Serena nodded before opening her door and slowly shutting it.
Once he knew Serena was in, he turned back to make it to his place; in his mind, he was going over if he didn't make things awkward by randomly giving his number to her.
Humphrey shook his head, they been friends ever since they was young how can this be awkward he asked himself.
Making back to his place he was quite tried so got really for bed before putting his alarm on his phone, he saw a message on his phone, opening his message a unknown number was there with a message saying
Good Night*
Humphrey smiled and started to text something back.
Good night*
Humphrey then put his phone on a nightstand and lay back and drift off to sleep.
"So nothing really happen right?" one of Humphrey's friend asked.
"Yes nothing happen, why "
In a restaurant, Humphrey and his two friends Chris and Mooch was sitting across from Humphrey
"well usually, stories like that involve being a One night stand" Mooch explained.
Humphrey rolled his eyes, "I wasn't going to do that she just dumped by an asshole I wasn't going jump into bed with her"
"Why, it would probably make her feel better"
"how would that make her feel any better?" Chris asked
"I'm glad I found her before someone with your mindset found her," Humphrey retorted
"But didn't you have crush on her" Mooch asked raising a eyebrow
"what, no," Humphrey responded. "yeah, we were childhood friends, but that's it, nothing more, and besides, I am not into dating anyone."
"Why is that? Is it because of-"
"No!" Humphrey said almost in a defensive tone, "I mean, No, Kate has nothing to do with any of that."
"Then why do you sound so mad talking about Kate? What did she even do to you?" Chris asked
"You can talk to us" Mooch pushed
" I rather not talk about it," Humphrey getting up from his table
"Humphrey, Humphrey," Mooch called out, but Humphrey ignored him and left the restaurant.
Humphrey walked out of the restaurant, talking about how Kate always made him mad even though the reason she dumped him was his fault. He didn't want to tell anyone that.
Humphrey walked to a park, thinking maybe that would calm his thoughts; he always liked the park when he was younger; there were many more... simple times.
He decided to walk back home and then saw someone in the distance, blonde fur with some red hair in the ears; it was Serena sitting on a bench.
He wanted to go and ask what she was doing there, but he stopped when he saw a man walking towards her, she stood up and started to talk about something, curiosity got the better of him, he went closer so he could hear.
{you came}
"yeah, I did; you wouldn't stop annoying me, will you?" Derek retorted as he started walk away.
{wait, I want to start over with you, I been thinking about stuff and maybe I did something to you}
"No! I never did like you," Derek yelled back as he turned around but then Serena grab his making him stop.
Sudden Derek then got tackle by the Pokemon and was brought into a kiss, Derek try with all his might to pull the Delphox off of him but couldn't.
Watching the scene from afar, Humphrey was shocked as Serena using her last attempt to make Derek fall for her. "What is she doing, does she know she can get arrested for that"
Serena then stopped kissing Derek but was soon push of by him; Serena fell onto the ground and looked up to see an unhappy human standing before her, "Don't you... fucking get it, I don't like you and never did. All you do is make my life a living hell."
{Derek, please}
"Don't give me that crap, Serena, you piece of shit, I wanted to do this for a LONG" Derek raised his hand as he was about to strike Serena and brought his hand going to slap Serena; Serena flinched as she felt a sharp pain across the face making her fall back on her back. Serena opened her eyes and saw Derek with rage on his face. she felt her chick burning as if it was on fire... he slapped her. Serena looked at Derek as his hand raised and about to strike her again Serena showed a pleading face wanted him to stop but as she was about say stop, Derek brought down his hand, and Serena shut his eyes, waiting for the same burning and painful sensation on her face again, but it didn't came she only heard someone say "I think that's enough" Serena looked up to see Humphrey staring at Derek with daggers in his eyes holding back his hand from slapping her.
{Humphrey?}
"Are you alright, Serena?" Humphrey asked, concerned about his friend.
"Who the fuck are you" Derek replied with angry
"Just a friend" Humphrey simply said, grabbing his waist harder. "If you ever hurt her again, I won't go easy on you, dude."
"Why are you protecting this sorry excuse of a Pokemon?" He asked again.
"This 'sorry excuse of a Pokemon' is my friend and I won't you or anyone hurt her"
{Hu-Humphry}
"hah, What are going to do beat me up, Coyote."
That name rang in Humphrey's skull, making him more angry; he was called this name in high school, which annoyed him greatly. Humphrey grabbed Derek's waist tightly, making Derek grunt in pain a bit.
"Don't you ever DARE call me that!" Humphrey yelled.
Humphrey begins to grip tighter and tighter as his face darkened as he hears Derek start to yell in pain. Humphrey then let go of Derek's waist knowing he had a enough.
"Get out here and better not see talk to Serena ever again" Humphrey said while staring down at Derek he quickly nodded and ran off.
{Humphrey} Hearing his name being called out to him by the Pokemon begins to bring him back into reality as Humphrey takes a breath in and out, looking back at the Delphox with a neutral face.
"You ok?" he asked, making the Delphox nod while holding her chick.
"Good." Humphrey made a slight grin, turning around before presenting his hand.
"Need help?"
Serena looks at Humphrey, then, taking his hand, helps her onto her feet.
"Thank you, Humphrey," Serena said while beginning to dust her fur off. Humphrey stared at her for a before going to the bench to sit down; Serena looked at him before following him and did the same thing.
They sit there for while, not saying a thing before Humphrey speaks up. "Are you okay?" he asked.
{Yeah, yeah, I am fine, still trying to figure out what happened to us}
Humphrey looked at Serena {I mean Derek and me, why did he break up with me, what did I do to make him hate so}
"You didn't do anything; Derek has always been a jackass, so don't think you did anything to him," Humphrey replied.
{I am done with guys like that now; I want to find a nice guy, someone who will always be there for me. Why is it hard to find someone like that}
"I wish you luck finding someone like that; it's like finding a shiny gamma Pokemon in the wild," Humphrey said before getting up from the bench.
{Where are you going?} Serena asked in a sad tone. Humphrey stopped and looked at Serena, "Home. Don't worry, I text you later. I need some space right now," He said before walking out of view.
{Like you}
Humphrey was lying in bed while watching videos on his phone. He wanted to forget everything that had happened, everything he has done has always be reminded by his past.
Watching enough People and Pokemon falling on his face he put his phone on the charger and he put his alarm on then putting the phone on his nightstand and he cover up as he lay there alone in the dark he heard echoes in his mind.
[Coyote-]
[Humphrey why are you so aloof]
[Why are quiet are you mute]
[Mute coyote]
[Mute coyote]
[Mute coyote]
[Mute coyote]
[Mute coyote]
"Stop-" Humphrey, trying to block out the echoes
[You never let anyone come close to you.]
[You always push people]
[You always push the people you care about]
[You even push your parents away, and now they never call you.]
[Why do you do it]
"Because I-"
[So you won't get hurt again]
"Just leave ME ALONE."
[Everything you do is pathetic]
"I said stop it"
[Nobody likes you now]
"STOP IT" Humphrey yelled getting up with a cold sweat he looked around to see it was only three in the morning "it was a dream?" Humphrey got up from bed, sitting on edge before going in the kitchen opening the fridge and grabbing a bottle saying Seviper Venom on it before popping off the cap and talking a drink of the vile beverage, the taste of the whiskey burn his throat before he shallow it and taking another drink before putting it back in the fridge, he then walk back to his bedroom seeing his phone was lit up, he pick up his phone and look to see a message from unknown number as he looked at the number closer, he then open the phone and went into message app and seen one message saying: 'Hey Humphrey are you doing aright?'
Humphrey knew the message belong to he put the phone back on the nightstand and getting back in the bed not wanting to talk to her not right why is she call me now at this time at night Humphrey thought he stared at the roof before began to feel drowsy again and he finally went sleep this time he didn't have no nightmare.
