Our Little Secret Male Lucario x Male Reader

Chapter Five: Calm after the Storm

Your POV

I woke up in my bed, feeling slightly drowsy. What happened yesterday? I rubbed my eyes, jumped out of my bed and started waddling to the bathroom. I tried hard to remember what happened yesterday trying too to take my mind away from the slowly arising headache I was experiencing.
After washing my face I looked at myself in the mirror and was surprised to see that my eyes were red and swollen. Had I been crying? After that, I decided that taking a shower could help me clear my mind. I filled the bathtub and after undressing I slowly got in. As the warm feeling of the water started to settle on my body, I submerged my head into the water and a huge wave of relief washed over me.
Images of yesterday's events started popping into my head. I think I woke up in my closet. As weird and uncomfortable as that sounds i think it's true. Ok, what else? I think Lucario took me out for breakfast? Yeah, I remember. We sat in a booth and then... oh no. I covered my face with my hands as I remembered. I told him what happened. Oh geez, why did I tell him? He insisted said a voice in my head. I know he insisted but still I shoud have kept quiet said a different voice in my head. So what? He was bound to find out. How? Uhhhh... No! No time to think about why I did it. It's time to fix it. I finished showering, dried off, and went to my room to get dressed. Fancy or casual? Hmmm, why not? Fancy it is. I grabbed a day suit and swiftly donned it on.
Hmm, I have to admit this sure looks good on me. I do a final check to see if I put it on correctly and walk out of my room. Now where could I take him so I can properly apologise. He already burnt out the card of yesterday's diner, so I'll have to think of a place just as nice if not nicer. Hm, there's a park not too far from here that's pretty empty, quiet, peaceful, and beautiful at this hour. Yeah, that sounds perfect! Hmmm, it's still early, I should start preparing what I'm gonna say.
Time skip til... idk... like an hour later or so?
Ok, that should be good. Now to get Lucario. I walk to his room and stop for a bit before softly knocking. I hear quick footsteps go towards the door as Lucario opens it in a second and hugs me.
"Oh y/n it's so good that you're awake, I was so worried. Listen about yester-"
I place my index finger on his lips
"Save it for in a bit, ok?"
He looks at me bit surprised but nods. I softly grab his paw and guide him downstairs with me.
Once we're at the door I look at him.
"So umm, wanna go to the park with me?" I just realized I never asked him. He smiles "I'd love to" I smile and we quickly head out.
The road to the park is silent and we don't even make eye-contact until we arrive. Once there I looked for aomewhere to sit and found a rather nuce bench ontop of a small mount. I guided Lucario there and sat him down before sitting down next to him.
We sat there in silence for what felt like an eternity. I thought I already knew what I wanted to say, but now all the words had left my head. I could feel a soft breeze on my face as some birds chirped on the trees. Each second that went by made me feel less secure about what I wanted to say. What if he thinks I'm a hipocrite now? What if he thinks I was simply guilt-tripping him for no reason? What if he thinks I'm a monster? As these thoughts rush through my head I feel something long and soft wrap behind my back and caress my shoulder. I immediately snap back and realize that it's Lucario's arm. I then feel him pull me close to him and I can't help but to snuggle close to him. "I... I'm sorry" I begin to say
"You're sorry?" He responds interrupting me "Why so?"
"W-Well... Y'now, what I said yesterday..."
"Yeah? What about it?" He says
"Well.. I'm sorry for saying it. And I beg you to forgive me if I seem weird or like a freak to you" I say, holding back the tears.
"Aww, you shouldn't regret telling me that. In fact, I'm honoured that you felt comfortable sharing that with me." He responds, smiling. It takes me a second to realize what he just said. He's not mad at me? He doesn't think I'm a freak? I... I'm so happy.
"Y-You really think so?" I ask smiling
"But of course I do! It makes me feel like I matter to you. Like I'm not somebody who's just crashing at your house. It makes me feel just so special" he says smiling back.
"Oh, Lucario..." Suddenly I feel like my belly bursts with butterflies and my chest warms up. Without thinking it, I pull him into a kiss which he happily replies with kissing back. I then start pulling him down ontop of me and wrap my arms around his neck. I can feel his warm soft fur with my hands and feel a soft warmth emanating from him. He slowly pulls away and I look into those beautiful and passionate red eyes of his. I started softly caressing his cheek and couldn't help but smile. As of right now nothing existed except this moment. There was no park, no sky, no bench, no trees, no birds, nothing except Lucario and me. I hugged him close and closed my eyes and sighed before saying. "Thank you, Lucario... thank you so much"
