Lillie's POV

The sudden sound of the ship telling it has arrived wakes me up from a deep sleep, and I get up, moaning:
"Y/n?"
But of course, there was no body laying next to mine. Y/n stayed behind in Kanto, and although I hate it, I also understand why he wants to stay there longer. This problem involving Team Rocket is too big of a threat.
I just hope you stay safe, Y/n...
I gather my belongings and head outside. The warm yet fresh Alolan breeze touches my face, and I sigh:
"If only Y/n was here..."
As I'm walking down the gangplank, I see a familiar face, jumping up and down like a madman.
"Lillie!" Hau shouts, as it wás him. I run up to him and give him a long hug, and tearing up, I exclaim:
"Hau! I'm sooo happy to see you again!"
I didn't get further than that, since I had no words.
Hau kept hugging me 'till I stopped sobbing out of happiness, and he released me, saying:
"I'm glad you're back too, my life has been so empty without you..."
He looks around, and looks into my eyes:
"Where's Y/n? Did he not come with you?"
I shake my head, turning a little sad:
"I'm here mainly because of him. He chose me to secure Alola."
He furrows his brows:
"What do you mean, secure Alola? What's going on? Alola is doing just fine!"
I smile, not wanting to tell everything whilst standing here at the marina:
"I'll tell you in a bit, I'm too tired now from the journey." I say, and I bend in to whisper in Hau's ear:
"Who knows who's watching us?"
Hau looks around and nods:
"I might have grown a bit more serious, but I'm still pretty addicted to malasadas! Wanna grab some?" He asks, winking. I nod, and we head off to the Hau'oli malasada shop.

It was good to be back in Alola and Hau'oli City again. We decided to have malasadas first, then go visit Y/n's mum, then visit my mum today.

"So, tell me everything!"
I smile:
"Well, where do I start?"
Hau laughs:
"Well, um... did you catch any cool Pokémon?"
I shrug:
"I caught some, but nothing too special. Only a Mew."
Hau shrugs too:
"Oh well, that's alright... wait, what?! A Mew?!"
I nod, smiling:
"Yes! I'll show you in a bit, not now though."
"Really? That's so cool! I can't believe it!"
Hau looks around and continues consuming his malasadas, saying:
"I'm really happy you're back, you don't know how much I've missed you."
I smile:
"I've missed you too, Hau. I can't wait to see mum. And Y/n's mum too, she'll be worried sick."
He just nods, and I take a quick bite of my malasada:
"So, you said Alola was doing great? Nothing happened while we were away?"
He shakes his head:
"Not really... this famous James person has become a legend here, he's done a lot of good for Alola. I beat every challenger for Y/n, and nothing important happened."
He stands up because we were both finished, helps me to get up and pays the bill.
Walking to Y/n's house, he asks:
"Did you have any encounters with Team Rocket in Kanto?"
I stop:
"Many."
He gives me a hug, longer than necessary. I release him first:
"I-I'm alright, Hau. I've grown a lot since leaving Alola. It has made me a lot stronger."
He smiles sheepishly:
"That's great to hear!"
We walk on in silence, 'till Hau takes a deep breath and asks:
"So, um... how are things going with Y/n?"
We lock eyes:
"We're a couple now, Hau. I'm sorry."
He shakes his head:
"No need to be sorry, I knew it all along. I'm very happy for you! You're the best couple in Alola, even in the world! My congratulations!"
I smile, a bit surprised by his excited reaction:
"Thank you, Hau. That means a lot to me."
He opens his arms:
"Hug?"
We hug, and I whisper in his ears, in tears:
"You're still my best friend, Hau."
He stays silent, smiling, and a few moments later, we arrive at Y/n's house.

Hau rings the doorbell, but walks inside anyway:
"Auntie! I've brought you a visitor!"
A voice coming from the bedroom shouts:
"Who is it?"
A second later, she bursts out:
"

I'm sorry, I was doing my hai-"
She drops the brush when she sees me, and her facial expression was amazing to see:
"Lillie?!" She asks, running towards me and pulling me into a long hug:
"I've missed you! How have you been?" She looks behind Hau's back, and turns a bit sad:
"Where's Y/n?"
I sigh:
"He sent me here with a mission. He's staying in Kanto for a bit longer, to protect everyone."
Hau leaps onto the sofa:
"What mission?"
I start telling the plan, and Y/n's mum and Hau keep listening attentively.
