Gladion x Reader; Skull

~Reunions!~

I followed Gladion out the door and onto Route 8. "How come you want to help me out exactly?" I questioned in a wondering tone. It wasn't like Gladion to help someone out. 

He didn't respond, he just kept walking toward the docks of Akala Island, "Where are we going?" 

Gladion sighed, turning back to me as we reached the docks, "Tapu Village on Ula' Ula' Island. Lillie and Hau are there currently." I sighed, looking at the boats, "The boats will take over an one hour and a half to get to Ula' Ula'." 

"So? What are we going to do? Use surf to get there?" He said teasingly.

"No, but I've got a better idea." 

"Oh? And what might that be?" 

I pulled out my Ride Pager and grinned. Gladion had never rode on a Charizard before. "Oh you'll see." I spoke into my Ride Pager, "Charizard, fly me to Tapu Village on Ula' Ula' Island." Charizard flew onto the docks and sat there waiting for us to get on. I ran over to Charizard, giving it a Pokebean before hopping on. Gladion sighed, "You expect me to get on a Charizard. You're crazy." 

"Crazy about you." I mumbled. 

"What was that?" He questioned, "You'll have to come closer to me to hear it." Gladion ran his hand through his blonde hair and glared at me. But did as I said and walked closer to me. 

"I said..." I quickly grabbed his wrist and pulled him on the Charizard with me. Then signaled it to fly up into the air. We left the comfort of the docks in milliseconds. "(Y/N)!" Gladion yelled, hanging onto me for dear life. I chuckled, "What?" I turned to him, "Scared of heights?" I stuck out my pouty lip in a teasing way. 

Gladion's face became slightly pink, and he turned to the side. "No." I chuckled to myself, "Yes you are." 

"Fine, ok, maybe a little." He admitted. "Okay!" I chimed, "Just don't fall off and you'll be a-ok!" 

"No shit." He remarked. I giggled and put my arms up in the air. "whooo hoo!!!" I exclaimed and smiled. "Wanna see something cool!?" 

"NO!" Gladion yelled, I laughed, "Oh well!" And pulled down Charizard's reins. We started plummeting to the ocean. "(Y/N)?!" Gladion yelled. We got close to the water and last minute, I pulled the reins back up and we were flying just above the water. 

The moonlight shinned down on the ocean, sparkling, you could see every Pokemon under water. Lovdisc swarmed together in a group. I smiled, putting my hand in the water just slightly, making a ripple as we flew fast. 

I turned around toward Gladion. "Beautiful isn't it?" He crossed his arms, "I'm going to get you back for what you did... later." He smirked, I didn't know what that meant so I just turned around, back to the front of Charizard. 

---

We landed at the Pokemon Center of Tapu Village on Ula' Ula' Island. "Follow me." Gladion said, signaling me. I followed him down the dirt path, and into a building known as 'the Aether House.' 

"Wha.... What's going on here?!" Acerola yelled (if you don't know, that's the little ghost trial girl) at Hau. I turned to Gladion, "Maybe we walked in at the wrong time?" 

"Shssh." He hushed me and turned back to what was going on. 

"Sasuhinxgruv... I'm sorry! I can't even make myself smile right now.." Hau said

"But why?! What happened?" Acerola asked. 

"Miss Lillie... She's gone! I'm supposed to be a trainer... but when it came down to it, Lillie had to protect me." Gladion hit himself in the face and sighed. He ran toward the front of the room."Did I hear that right?! It was Lillie who took Cosmog?!" 

How did he know about Cosmog? Strange.. and how did he know about Lillie? He's only told me one thing about himself really, about how his mother was a bit... crazy. But other than that. I really didn't know much. 

"Gosh," He put his and on his foread, "You're all so weak and now that Cosmog is gone..." He looked over at me and sighed, "We need to get her back. Let's go." 

Hau looked over in his direction, finally noticing me. "(Y/N)?!?!?!" He sprinted over toward me and hugged me tightly, spinning me around in the air. My face began to turn blue. "H-Ha-u." I mumbled, he set me down. 

"But how do we know where she is?!" Hau asked Gladion, he turned over to him, smirking. "Oh believe me, I know. Aether Paradise, Let's go!" 

--

We ran down the beach to the shore line, "This'll be much faster!" I exclaimed, taking out my Ride Pager and quickly speaking into it. "Hau, how long has she been gone for?" Gladion asked. 

"I'd say about an hour or so." 

"Good, then they should just be getting there." 

Charizard landed on the shore, "Come on! Let's go!" I signaled them on, I quickly hopped on, followed by Gladion. I turned around at Hau... he had his sandal stuck in the sand. 

"HAU!" Gladion voice rumbled, "GET ON NOW!" 

"Y-yeah!" He picked up his sandal and hopped on, I patted Charizard's signal to move and we set off. "AH!" Hau yelled, "MY SANDAL!" I watched his sandal fall into the ocean. 

"God dammit Hau." Gladion mumbled and crossed his arms. "You're going with one shoe." 

"Make that none!" Hau threw his other shoe in the water. "ARE YOU CRAZY?!" Gladion yelled. Hau threw his arms up in the air, "Wearing shoes was no fun anyway!" Gladion sighed, putting his hand on his forehead, "A bunch of idiots." 

Sheesh, Gladion is so Tsundere. It's like one minute, he seems to care, then the next, he acts all cold and salty.. But in a way...you know.. I kind of liked it. 

I could never feel bored of him.
