(Jan. 24)
Silver woke up, put his hair up, got dressed then headed downstairs to have breakfast. He took his sneasel out and it followed him. "Hey dad." Silver yawned, "What's for breakfast?" Giovanni looks up, holding waffles. Hmm, delicious. He sits down and starts eating. Giovanni watches and says "That's a record. Five minutes." That is indeed a record. My pokegear rings, what now? You're kidding, Gold just told me to come to his house. That'll be a disaster. I get up, say bye to my dad, put sneasel away and leave. Six minutes later I get to Gold's house."Hey Silver!" Gold drags me to his bedroom and plops onto his bed. "Sit. I have to go get something." What? Okay. "What do you mean? Gold?" He disappeared into his closet. How, just how? Oh, finally, he comes out holding a small box. "Umm, Silver. Here you go." He shoved the box into my hands, "Happy belated Birthday!" So, he made a fuss about my Birthday. Nice.
I open it and inside there's a necklace. It's, wow. It has one of Lugia's feathers and one of Ho-oh's feathers. "Thanks. How did you get this? It's awesome. Well, more like pretty." Gold blushes, "I asked, and reasoned, with Lugia and Ho-oh for a feather. Then my mom helped me make and wrap the necklace." I am so going to hang this in my room. More importantly, I somehow made Gold blush! " Gold, my Birthday was a month ago. So why are you giving this to me now?" Gold looks away, then replies, "Well, I only learned when your Birthday was a week ago. I felt like I should give you a gift so I did." He's blushing even more! Is that possible? He sits down next to me. "Silver, do you wanna go traveling? I'm free this week." Wait, is he like asking me on a date? No, no way. "Sure, let me put this in my room first." We head out and go journeying.
We start going West, so I have some ideas of where we're going. "Gold, are we going to Tohjo Falls? Or Mt. SIlver?" Gold looks slyly at me, "Maybe. What's your favorite food?" Wow, what a weird question. Also, Maybe?! Seriously, it is yes or no. I think he's trying to change the subject. "My favorite food. Hmm, it may be berries." Gold snickers, "Okay, Silv." Silv? What is that nickname? "Gold, no. Just no. Silv is a big no no." Gold frowns, "Why? It's an awesome nickname." I shake my head. When will he respect my wishes? I think I'm getting paranoid. By nightfall we reach Tohjo Falls. "It's beautiful." Gold looks at me and says "Yeah it is. Just like you." What!?!?! "What?! Did you?! Just say?!" Gold blushes and looks away, "Sorry." he says weakly. I just stand there processing everything. I can clearly tell what Gold is thinking, Did I break Silver? He probably broke me. So I sit down, while Gold paces.
There's a slight breeze. It feels nice, but it's getting stronger. I start worrying about Gold. He's close to the edge, did he feel the breeze yet? Oof, it just got stronger. I try to stand up, but almost fell over. I look up to see Gold's face changing from thinking to shock. He's falling over the edge! "Silver!" he yells. I freeze, then rush towards him. I fall on my stomach and stretch out to grab his hand. "SIlver? I need to tell you something." He looks into my eyes and opens his mouth, but that moment his hand slips out from my hand and he falls. "Gold!!!!" I yell my heart out. He hits the water and goes under. I get murkrow out and fly down there and see his body wash up on shore. His neck is broken, he's dead. I can't believe it, he's actually dead. I grab his body and run back to New Bark Town. I run past Kris and go to Gold's mom. My dad's talking with her, but they look up when they hear me sobbing. I see Kris', Gold's mom's and my dad's shock. Dad recovers first, "What happened, SIlver?" He speaks softly, wiping my tears away. "He fell off Tohjo Falls." I choke out, then go back to crying. Kris hugs me, crying with me. I set Gold down and hugged Kris back.
Gold's mom wipes her tears away. "Gold" she whispers. Dad just stands there offering support. Me and Kris just sit there clinging to each other crying. I ask Gold's mom and my dad if I can sleep in Gold's room. They say yes, and tell me to call Gold's mom Ms. Gold. I walk to their house and get into his bed getting his pokemon and mine out and sleeping with them. Though I mostly cuddle with Exbo (Typhlosion). I stayed in bed, not doing anything for a week. My pokemon, and Gold's, were worried. By next week I was rummaging through Gold's room. I looked through his desk and found a diary that says "Ethan Hibiki Gold's Diary : Keep Out!" I looked through his diary. Hmm, this is when he started his journey "Today I, Gold, is starting my journey to become the Johto/Kanto champion! I got Aibo with me. I'm so excited." (2 months later) "I met this mean guy named silver. He is totally wrong about pokemon. They're not tools! They're our partners! I feel like I can fix him. I also got some new pokemon like Exbo, he's a cyndaquil. Silver stole totodile, bad boy silver."
"I also met someone named Joey. He keeps sending me pictures and texts about his rattata. I block him at night and on missions." (Another 2 months later) "Just meet someone named Kris. Nice lady. BUT now, I have to defeat the Masked Man. I hate him. He is so selfish about pokemon. He uses pokemon and children! He kidnapped Silver! Now he is real bad." (1 year and a half later) "Oof, Me, Kris and Silver just met Arceus. Those Team Rocket peeps are real bad, but we showed them. Arceus opened his heart and transported us to the Sinjoh Ruins. Brrr, cold. The Team Rocket people, Archen I think, Used the plates to make Palkia, Dialga and Giratina. We defeated them but the Legendaries escaped. Then Lance, Pryce, and Giovanni showed up. And Celebi cured Giovanni. Silver turned down Giovanni's request. Yes! We are still friends." (6 months later) "You know, I think I'm in love with Silver. I just learned when his birthday is, so I'm gonna make him a present."
"I already told Kris about that. We also met Lyra, she is our new friend, so I told her. I begged them to keep it a secret and they said they will. At least until I tell Silver." Oh, so that's what he meant when he said I look beautiful and he had to tell me something. I miss him. "Knock Knock. Silver, do you want some lunch? You haven't had anything in a week." I look up from the diary "Yes, thanks, Ms. Gold." She looks at the diary "Oh, I see you've found his diary. I'll make you a Grilled Cheese, Okay?" I nod. I have a task. I need to find Celebi. Only then I can get Gold back. Wait, should I call him Ethan or Gold? Why didn't he tell me about this? My pokegear rings. I answer Lyra's call "Hi Silver! I'm sorry about what happened to Gold. Are you okay?" I nod, "Yeah, I guess. How's Goldenrod City?" Lyra rambles on about how it is boring and peaceful. Ms. Gold calls me down for lunch, so I say Bye to Lyra.
I head down to the dining room. I sit down and start eating. Oh wow, I was hungry. "Thanks, Ms. Gold. Can you take care of Gold's pokemon for me while I'm gone?" Ms. Gold replies, "Yes, of course I can." I grab my pokemon then head off towards the laboratory. I knock on the door and Kris answers. "Hi Silver. What do you want?" I come in, "Do you think you can help me find Celebi? Please Kris?" Kris looks away, "I can tell you how, but I can't come with you. Sorry." I nod briskly, "That's okay. Duty comes first." I spend a few days there learning about Celebi, then I go home. "Hey dad." Giovanni looks up, "Hi Silver. What are you doing? You look determined." I hesitate before answering, "I'm gonna find Celebi and bring Gold back. I just need to get my necklace Gold gave me." So, I head up to my room and put my necklace on. I start heading toward Ilex Forest. After a few days, I get there and another few days I find the Ilex Forest Shrine.
I open it and Celebi comes out. "Celebi, can you take me back to when Gold gave me my birthday present!" Celebi looks at me for a few seconds, then nods. Oh oh, time traveling feels weird, but it's over quickly. I get to Gold's house and Knock. Gold answers "Hey Silver!" He drags me to his bedroom and plops onto his bed. "Sit. I have to go get something." What? Okay. "What do you mean? Gold?" He disappeared into his closet. How, just how? Oh, finally, he comes out holding a small box. "Umm, Silver. Hear you go." He shoved the box into my hands, "Happy belated birthday!" So, he made a fuss about my birthday. Nice.
I open it and inside there's a necklace. It's, wow. It has one of Lugia's feathers and one of Ho-oh's feathers. "Thanks. How did you get this? It's awesome. Well, more like pretty." Gold blushes, "I asked, and reasoned, with Lugia and Ho-oh for a feather. Then my mom helped me make and wrap the necklace." I am so going to hang this in my room. More importantly, I somehow made Gold blush! " Gold, my birthday was a month ago. So why are you giving this to me now?" Gold looks away, then replies, "Well, I only learned when your birthday was a week ago. I felt like I should give you a gift so I did." He's blushing even more! Is that possible? He sits down next to me. "Silver, do you wanna go traveling? I'm free this week." I think to myself, this is my chance! "Yeah, but we can't go to Tohjo Falls. It's too windy"
Gold nods, "True but where are we going then?" Hmmm, "I heard there's a play going on at Ecruteak City about the Legendaries. Wanna go?" "Of course! It's a date! Oh, SIlver, I love you." He blushes and looks away. I hug him and whisper "I love you too." Few days later, He shows me his diary and I reread everything I already read. "Hey Gold. Should I call you Ethan or Gold?" Gold looks me in the eyes and says ''Call me whatever you like, I'm yours." Soon enough, I get a diary and write about this whole adventure.
Epilogue
(Gold's Pov) (July 21)
It's been a few months since me and SIlver confessed to each other that we love each other. Today it's my birthday and Kris, Lyra, Joey and Silver are here. I think this is the best birthday yet. I got six presents, but my favorite was Silvers. After everyone left, Silver pulled me into my room and kissed me. I kissed him back, on the lips! After we pulled apart, I said "Hey Silver. This was the best birthday present I ever got." Then we got in bed and fell asleep. With sneasel and Exbo as well.
