Even More Love in the Pokemon Center

(Author's Note: Anyone? Does anyone get the title? If you read the first one, you should get what's going to happen...)
*Red's P.O.V.*
Leaf cried silently on the cold bathroom floor. Beedrill had fired poison barbs into her back. I locked the door behind me and kneeled behind her.
"Are you okay?" I breathed calmly.
She nodded. "As long as you're here..."
She had asked me to help her pry out the needles. I accepted knowing it was my fault she was now in pain. I should have thought about the consequences of my actions.
Leaf's shirt had already been ripped off due to earlier's events. She was left in her skirt and undergarments. I slowly touched the soft, cold skin of her back.
"Does it hurt?"
Leaf whimpered when my fingers passed over a bump in her flesh. I stopped and pinched the area she had been stung. After some short moments of ear breaking screams, the poison barb ejected from her skin.
"That really hurts," Leaf cried quietly. I continued to pinch out the stingers from her back. Eventually, after some very cringe worthy howls, I removed all of them.
"I'm done," I announced.
Leaf struggled to balance upward in her seating position. Too much poison got to her brain and made her dizzy. "Wait," she halted me. I stayed where I was kneeling. Leaf hunched her back and reached around. "There's one right here..." She had her hand over her bra.
"Um, Leaf?"
"This one is hurting much worse than the others." Somehow a needle pierced through the fabric. "You can unhook my bra if it will make it easier."
I fiddled with the hooks of her pastel pink undergarment. It may have been fear or uncertainty that caused me to become shy around the girl I had been so open to. The clasps finally unhooked themselves. Leaf held the underwear closely to her chest to conceal herself as it fell forward.
I observed her back once more and found the final stinger. I pinched. And pinched. And pinched. The stinger finally lost its grip.
In exhaustion, Leaf collapsed onto my lap. Her reddened face drenched itself in icy sweat. Her long lashes curled outward from her shut eyes. Her hands fell from her breasts, releasing the grip on her bra.
"Red," she coughed, "I-" Her sentences stopped abrubtly. "Thank you."
Her eyes opened slightly. The ends of her lips curled subtly into a smile. Her head nuzzled my chest, probably feeling my muscles. A feminine hand of hers weakly reached for my face, stroking it with care. She looked at me in fantasy.
Slowly, my head leaned forward, lowering itself. With eyes shut, her soft, strawberry lips tickled mine. A sweet sensation fluttered in my chest.
Once I broke the kiss, Leaf closed her eyes. She whispered, "I love you," before she fell under a deep sleep. Her words tickled my heart, forcing a small smile upon my face.
Carefully, I carried her body out of the bathroom. My companions stared at me as I walked with Leaf in my arms. I laid her on a bed and dressed her in a new set of her usual attire.
I rest beside her sleeping body, studying her calm, adorable face. Night had come so quickly after Team Rocket made on of their infamous appearances. All I wanted to do now was protect my sweet Leaf.
Lyra and Gold had delivered the special Pokeballs back to the owner, returning with a special set of them as a gift. We had decided to give them to Leaf for her experience today. That was an unforgivable incident that Team Rocket will soon pay their dues for.
Blue took my place on the floor, understanding my connection to Leaf. Everyone followed their usual sleeping arrangements, except for Green, who joined me with Leaf on the bed. She was a delicate flower that required protection. That's what she deserves...
