You had a bad dream that night: you dreamt about thát one day, the day when Lillie left. But when you woke up, you were partly glad too, because you knew those days without Lillie were over. Everyone was still sleeping, but you already went outside. You were excited for the journey that was about to begin. This is why you came to Kanto.
And for Lillie, of course, and for Lillie. A few Pidgeys were sitting in front of the door, so you fed them. A voice from behind suddenly surprises you:
"How are things going? Ready for the journey?"
You turn around: it was Gladion.
"I am! Are you?"
"I am ready too, I'm longing for a journey! I heard you were awake, so I decided to get up as well! How are things going with Lillie, you know...?" He asks with a wink.
You smile and shrug:
"Well, I feel like-"
A question interrupts you:
"I heard my name?" Lillie says smiling, standing behind Gladion. Gladion keeps his chill air and answers cool:
"I was just asking Y/n how your arm was doing, goodmorning."
Lillie nods:
"My arm is fine. Goodmorning, Gladion!" She says and hugs Gladion, and then walks towards you:
"Goodmorning, Y/n!" She says sweetly, and gives you a hug and even a kiss on your cheek! Gladion gave a grin, and you winked back. After a few seconds, she let go and asks:
"And, captain, when are we leaving?"
"In a few hours..." You say, thinking, to add a moment later:
"You know you woke up pretty early, right?"
She smiles and winks:
"I just wanted to be with you, Y/n!"
Gladion seizes his chance:
"Cuties!"
Lillie blushes and turns around:
"Excuse me, what did you say?"
He laughs:
"I said: CUTIES!"
He runs away with Lillie following him, in playful anger. You stare at the two and smile:
They really are brother and sister!
They were back in a minute. You smile at Lillie:
"Every problem solved?"
They nod, but Gladion can not resist to give you another wink. But this time, Lillie noticed it and gives Gladion a slap, saying "What was that good for?"
You all laugh together, sit down in the grass and watch the dawn.
You stand up:
"Let's wake everyone up."
Lillie grabs your hand:
"Really? I wanted to sit here for a little longer!"
You give her a warm smile:
"Okay, I'll wake everyone up."
She turns sad:
"But I want to stay here, and with you!"
"You made me 'the captain'." You say winking, "but I'll be back in a minute!"
You go to Daisy's room first. She was still sleeping, and you hear her soft breathing. You touch her shoulder softly a few times:
"Daisy? Could you wake up, please?"
She takes your hand:
"What time is it?"
You shrug:
"I don't know, but the sun is here, and I don't want to stay any longer. Could you wake up Blue and Red?"
She turns her back to you, still holding your hand:
"I want to sleep..."
You place a hand on her shoulder:
"Keep sleeping then. Are you a sleepwalker, by any chance?"
"No."
"That's unfortunate. Otherwise you could perhaps wake them up while you're sleeping." You say, walking away, after releasing her hand, "I thought you'd do it, for me..."
You hear stumbling behind you:
"I'll go, I'll go!"
You give her a wink.
Lots of winking today!
"I knew you would. Thanks!"
You walk back to Lillie:
"Here I am!"
She turns around, sees you and smiles:
"I talked with Gladion, he had rather interesting things to say!"
Really, Gladion? Really? Thanks, man!
"About?" You say as calm as possible.
She takes your hand:
"You remember when you catched a Ponyta for me?"
You nod. That was one of your favourite moments in Kanto so far!
"Of course!"
She smiles again, a bit shy:
"Well, remember you said: "You can catch anything for me if you want to?""
You got the clue:
"Where did you catch it?"
That question surprised her, but she quickly answers:
"Over there, near the training grounds, while you were packing. Gladion said it will be very strong when it evolves, and that it is the perfect gift for you!"
She hands over a Pokéball. You give it back:
"If it could be a great addition to my team, then it could also be the same to your team."
She laughs and gives it back too:
"No! This is my gift for yóú! You've given me loads of things, now I want to give yóú something. You only have Bulbasaur!"
You shrug:
"Alright... I'd like to name it, whatever it is. I'd like to name it Midos."
