And You Came Back-SatoGou Twoshot(Complete)

And You Came Back

(Inspired by the song: Cardigan, by Taylor Swift. Specifically the line: And you come back to me, and you came back. Cuz to my embarrassment, I'm A Swiftie... Also contains some lyrics to the song.)

Goh's POV:

   "Another day Ash wouldn't answer my calls." I sighed, pressing the red dismiss button on my rotom-phone. 

   "Well that's just rude. How long has it been?" Chloe huffed, in criss-cross position. We are on my bed in the laboratory. After Ash moved out, I was moved to another room with just one bed. I do miss the room we were in. The memories and laughter we shared still plays in my mind every time I walk past it. This room isn't so bad, it was "my" room before we and Ash became research fellows.

   "Erm.... I think about four months?" I grimaced. Chloe scowled. Chloe is very protective of my feelings. What's so sad is how fast Ash left. He had no hesitation, he just ran like water.

   "Well, that's his loss. Because he's ignoring the calls from the most amazing guy in the world." Chloe set his soft hand on my shoulder. I smiled softly. Even though it wasn't taking away my pain, it helped to know Chloe was there for me. "He's not worth your time" she assured.

   "But he is..." I sighed, "He was my best friend for two years. And I don't even get why he won't call me.." I let out a huff.

   "Hmmmmmmmmm..... Do you know where he is now?" She asked, holding her index finger to her chin.

   "Nope. Either Paldea, or somewhere crazy." I groaned. We both know how much I wanna storm to his house and bang on the door. But I doubt he's there. Maybe he is traveling with Leon and Raihan. I heard they went on a trip to Paldea, so maybe they brought him along. I know Ash did want to check Paldea out. But what twists my heart is the fact he didn't bring me along. I tried to change the ending, but Peter lost Wendy in the end. 

   "Goh, don't worry. He cares for you. He will open up eventually." She gripped my hand.

   "Yeah, I hope so..." I let myself fall onto the bed, and Chloe brought out her cherry-pink laptop. We snuggled up under the covers and watched a dumb show that she wanted to watch. I am grateful I have her, but I wish Ash was here.

Ash's POV:

   "Another call from Goh? Dismiss. I'm not in the mood" I slid my finger on the red button, "Whenever I call him, I feel sad.". My lips curved into a frown when I saw Goh's profile picture: it was us, our cheeks squished up together and us laughing. I really miss those days. Its been seven months since I moved out, and four since I started ignoring Goh's calls. Who knew the smell of smoke would hang around this long? 

I was in my loft bed, pathetically scrolling on Pokegram. Everything people post is so dumb lately. There is nothing to watch!

   "Satoshi! Stop sulking around and get some dinner!" My Mum called from downstairs. I grunted, hoisting myself up. Pikachu sadly sighed, crawling on my head. I felt weak, even though I wasn't. I had no motivation. And I don't know where it went. Maybe I'm burnt out after two years of Professor Cerise's Research Fellowship. I crawled down the ladder, Pikachu following behind. 

   "I'm comiiiiing" I groaned, flopping down the stairs. I got to the doorway, and leaned against it.

   "Ash..... I know your now a teenager and going through that phase, but honey, you used to be so motivated and happy! What happened? Are you just tired and need a break?" She asked, laying a plate of rice and chicken on the table for me. At least she understands, and doesn't assume I know nothing.
