Chapter 7 - My Parents

------------ Don't Start Song ----------------

Ilima pov--------

Y/n was still in my arms crying. He wasn't crying as hard as when I found him but the tears kept pouring out his eyes. Slowly he stopped crying. I look at his face to find that he's asleep. I wipe the tears trickling down his face away and check my watch to see the time. It was 7:15 am and I doubt y/n has slept since yesterday. Crying must have tired him out. Kukui arrived and saw y/n asleep in my arms with his head on my shoulder. He gave me a weird look but didn't say anything. Kukui had come looking for me as I was 15 minutes late. Lei watched us for a few minutes before falling asleep himself. Kukui sat down across from me then we discussed move types while y/n and Lei slept. Kukui eventually left and y/n started to wake up. I look in the sky to see it was about 1 pm. I had been talking to kukui about move types for about SIX hours. Which also ment y/n had six hours sleep. Not great but better than nothing.

Y/n p.o.v -------

I awake to my head resting on someone's shoulder and pink/peach hair tickling my face. It was Ilima. I let out a yawn. "Hey, had a nice kip?" He asked politely. I just shrug in response. I look towards my guitar and see Lei pick it up for me and plop it in front of me. I open Lei's pokeball and send him inside so he can sleep properly. "Will you tell my why you were crying?" Ilima carefully asks. I take a deep breath. "Yea. Today is the anniversary of my parents death and I found out today that what was left of them got sold, recycled or sent to the dump." I say my voice cracking slightly. Ilima just stayed silent knowing my parents were a sensitive topic. I reach for my guitar and get it out its case. I also grap a audio recorder out of my bag.

------------------ Start Song ---------------------
I press play on the recorder and piano music starts playing. I start strum my guitar, close my eyes and start to sing.

They think you're crazy. ( crazier)
They think you're mad. ( madder)
They call you stupid, worthless, tell you you're not worth it.

And now you're walkin' back to a place you call home,
But you feel so alone.

The same hurtful hits, it's your darker place.
In your virgin ears, the remarks they make.

And if they, if they really knew all of those things.
That you do in your room to hide the pain
I bet their minds would change.
I'll bet their minds would change.

They'd change if they knew the pain.
Change

'Cause I believe in these scars
'Cause I believe

I stopped playing and singing. The recorder had finished aswell so I put it away in my bag and started to put away my guitar.

" What was that song?" Ilima quietly asked. Voice slightly braking I reply "My parents would sing it to me when I got bullied or picked on. They eventually taught me it. Then one year after everything was finally alright they died." Ilima stays silent for a moment then asks " Will you tell me how they died?" I stay silent. " They were impaled by rocks and drowned in the sea" I quietly mutter. Ilima still heard me thou. I start to stand and so does Ilima. "I'm gonna go catch some pokemon to help me defeat Captain Olivia" I tell him. "Here" He says as he gives me some pokeball and a revive. Surprising me with another hug, "I'll see you around" He tells me. I hug back while saying " Yea. I'll come visit soon." We let go and head separate ways. I walk through the grass and soon encounter a wild.....

Kip is British slang for nap or sleep.
If you didn't know I'm British.
