A Pokemon Adventure (oc X oc)

Her Smile (James POV)

I could see the confusion and uncertainty in her eyes, she isn't just going to tell me. I'll have to work for it, work for her trust and maybe even her heart. She is a very strong willed woman and I have no doubt her Litten is no different. The little guy was trying to fight his way into her father's hideout the whole time we were there. He had no care for his own safety just hers, no doubt a loyal companion much like my Dragonite. The more she looks me over, searching for a sign of what I can only assume is a give away of this not being real or I have different intentions than what I say. But she is simply giving me more time to appreciate and take her in so as to not forget her. Not like I would, "I thought angels were mere fairy tales or works of fiction." She has snow white skin, icy blue eyes with the light of a thousand stars reflected in them, pale blonde hair, and soft pink lips that remind me of a seashell I once found at the beach. Their plump and full, I have heard her voice with such sweetness before, and also with so much venom to. I easily tower over her small 5'2" frame with my 6'3" build, I could easily steal a taste of her and she wouldn't be able to do a thing about it. "But I don't feel like being castrated in my sleep so I won't try for now."

"What do you mean I interest you? We only just met, I am no more interesting than a passerby on the street or a stranger selling you beer at a bar." I smile down at her and pat her head, her hair is so silky and soft, as if I am petting a rabbit. She is innocent like one but much to violent to be called a rabbit, I smirk as I thought of the perfect nickname for her. "Well 'kitten', for starters, you are much better looking than either of those. If you were a passerby you would turn my attention to you. And if you were selling me beer at a bar, I'd be wondering when you got off so I could return the favor. Secondly, your voice sounds strong and confident but your body tells me otherwise. Your reactions, your movements, the very way you stand and constantly shift around as though you're ready to bolt at the slightest breeze that offends your senses. It tells me so much more than what you're saying, even your eyes tell me another story entirely. And I want to know why, no one should be filled with as much fear as you are. I already promised you, as long as you are by my side I will protect you. No one will ever touch you again as long as you don't want them to, all you got to do is say it and I will happily break their hands for upsetting you."

She looks up at me in blatant amazement, she doesn't have a very good poker face at all. "Adorable." Her perfect eyes continue to search mine, in all the doubt I see hope in the center. A small bit but it is enough for me to prove myself to her in some way, a girl like her only appears once in a lifetime and I would be a fool to let her slip out of mine. I contemplate for a bit to think of a way to prove myself, to show her that her hope in me is well founded, but not going to scare her away. She has opened herself a small bit, barely a crack but it is enough for me to know I am not just simply going about this in the wrong way. Last thing I want to do is hurt her, I settle on a gentle smile and hug her closer to me. Burying my face in her hair and inhaling her scent, sweet caramel and fresh apples, with vanilla and cinnamon sugar. Even her scent is a dessert for the senses, her whole being is a sweet treat and I love it. I want all of it to be mine, and I am sure I will someday. "Do you...d-do you...really mean that...?" Her sweet voice cracks and I can feel her small form tremble in my arms, her warm tears flowing down her face and staining my sleeve. I smile more and hug her tighter before kissing the top of her head, "I mean it kitten, I will continue to get stronger and prove it to you everyday. I am here for you as long as you want me to be." And just like that, she breaks down sobbing in my arms. Shaking and crying like a small child for its mother, probably not too far from the truth given her history so far.

I continued to let her cry herself out till she was simply left with small whimpers and sniffles, my heart thumping wildly in my chest from how she clung to me and refused to let go. Dragonite hands me over a bowl of the curry we made and sits beside us, Litten resting on his head. Little guy probably snuck enough bites of the food as it cooked that he spoiled his appetite. I hear a growl suddenly and a squeak quickly afterwards, looking down her face is flushed bright pink with her small hands covering her stomach. I smirk knowingly and blow on the curry a bit to cool it off before offering her a spoonful. Her innocent eyes looked up at me, apparently surprised by the sudden gesture. Probably seems foreign to her, aside from the townspeople I doubt she is used to receiving kindness let alone from someone she would consider a stranger. Come to think of it I don't know if she deems me a stranger or not. She moves to take a bite but my curiosity is piqued and I am not the most patient person when it comes to my curiosity. I pull the spoon away and look down into her confused eyes and pouty face. "cute." "Do you consider me a stranger?" She looks at me like I have two heads and cocks her head to the side making her look like a curious puppy, "she really needs to stop being so adorable, she's lucky it isn't illegal." "What do you mean? Why would I consider you as a stranger?" "You made the statement about strangers before, it made me curious if you see me as one." "Not really, I guess I would see you as an acquaintance, one I am on good terms with. A friendly face." "So you don't consider me a danger to you?" "I never said that, even family is a threat to your safety if they want to be. Stranger, friend, acquaintance, family, lover, enemy. No matter who or what you are, you can pose as a threat to anyone whether intentional or not. At present I don't see you as someone that I should be completely on guard with but I am wary of you and I probably always will be."

Her response both saddens and angers me, not at her though, never at her. But to the ones that hurt her so badly that she can longer truly trust anyone, they ruined her for practically a lifetime maybe more. Why would anyone hurt someone to the point they might break simply by trusting and loving someone? I will never understand people like that, Professor had told me of her for so long. Sent me pictures of them with the lab's Pokemon and other staff, even townspeople sometimes joined them when they would celebrate a breakthrough or discovery. I was always drawn to her, on video calls with him I would see her and hear her in the back ground. Stunning and graceful, careful not to get angry with even the most stubborn or mischievous Pokemon. I hug her closer and offer her a bite again, which she happily takes from me. Her eyes sparkle in delight as she sits up more to try and take the bowl from me. I hold it up higher so she can't reach, in turn she adjusts herself to straddle my lap and reach for it. I continue to keep it from her reach and lose balance, not wanting her hurt I drop the food and wrap my arms around her waist to secure her to my chest. Landing on my back to the ground, and her pinned to my chest has me blushing like a mad fool. I probably am but I would happily be a mad fool for her, her soft and curvy body pressed against mine is a major turn on. 

I look her over to make sure she isn't hurt while she looks up at me, her stunned gaze and flushed face makes my heart beat even faster and I fear she can hear it if not feel it beneath her small hands. She whimpers in embarrassment and rambles off apologies in a flustered tone and I draw her closer to me before grabbing the side of her head and guiding her face to look at me, when I am sure she is I crash my lips to hers and revel in the taste of her hot, sweet mouth. I hear her whimper and squirm against me, I crack an eye open to see her reaction and her cute face is flustered yet seemingly to enjoy it. Prompted by her reaction I enjoy every second of her, I may not have a chance like this again anytime soon and I want to take full advantage of it. I press her closer to me and slide my hand that is around her waist to her soft ass, giving it a gentle yet firm squeeze. She gasps and gives me the entry I desire as I dive my tongue into her mouth, making her squeak in surprise and grip my jacket tightly in her small fists. I massage her ass and rub my thumb across the small of her back under the hem of her shirt. It got pushed up in the fall and exposes her soft, delicate skin. I feel her squirm more and let her break the kiss for air, a string of saliva connecting our mouths still. Her flushed face and ragged breaths the only sound coming from her, mixing delightfully with the crackling wood, flickering flames, my breathing and my own heartbeat. I swear I can hear hers to, I can certainly feel it and the look in her eyes confirms she not only enjoyed it. She didn't want it to stop, truth be told neither did I but we both needed air and I needed a chance to calm down a bit before I went further and couldn't take it back.

She fumbles over her words, not able to form a coherent sentence and I kiss her again. Much gentler this time, sweeter. I have no doubt in my mind now, I am wildly, madly, unbelievably, undoubtedly in love with this girl. Once I am champion I will make her a safe place she can call home, make her mine, give her a family, and show her all the loving in the world that she missed out on. If she asked for it I would give her the world, anything her little heart desires would be hers in an instant with no questions asked. That is how much I am in love with her, she probably hasn't realized it yet and that just means I get to take my time and show it to her at full throttle. I slowly get up and help her ease up back into a sitting position, Dragonite hands me another bowl of curry and I aid her in turning back around. I assumed she would leave my lap but she stayed comfortably in place and took the bowl offered to her from Litten and ate silently. Her reaction made me a bit more anxious than I would of liked to admit so I snuck a gaze at her face and saw her blushing and keeping her eyes on her bowl, "my little kitten is simply embarrassed from the altercation and how much she liked it." I smirk knowingly and eat my own bowl letting her have her space, after eating she climbed into her sleeping bag and curled up with Litten. I followed suit and waited to hear her soft breathing to let me know she was asleep before laying my jacket over her to help keep her warm before extinguishing the fire. I return to my own sleeping bag and fall asleep with the biggest smile on my face and entered the personal dreamland filled with my future with the girl of my dreams that is Celeste.
