A False Kings True Queen (N x Reader)

Good Night, Good Morning and Good Bye [13]

(Y/n)'s P.O.V

Castelia City is gorgeous at night, it reminds of what I've read about Kalos' biggest city: Lumiose City. It was close to midnight now and I was still wandering around. What am I doing up? Couldn't sleep, I'm still a bit to riled up. Zorua was fast asleep in my hair while Herdier and Rufflet shared my bag. Even at night this city was alive, people were still running around from here to there. While exploring I saw a little blue stand, it looked like they were setting up. I was walking up to ask why they were setting up at this hour, but someone's voice caught my attention. "Oh... Hello there." I froze up. 'Why does this happen to me?' I turned around to see the mysterious green haired man known as N. "It's been awhile... (Y/n), was it?"
"How nice of you to remember my name... Um... So, what are you doing up at this hour?" I asked stiffly, hopping this would end quickly.
"It's could ask the same to you, but I'm exploring. This is the second time I've been here; last time was just for a day."
"Fair enough, I was doing the same. Last time I was here was about 10 years ago, maybe a bit longer."

I started to walk off to explore more, I was hoping he'd just go a different way so I wouldn't have to keep looking over my shoulder, but he didn't and walked beside me. Neither of us said a word, it was too tense and awkward for me with what happened recently. Something, however, had me curious.
"... So, do you remember that girls name yet?" I glanced at him out of the corner of my eye while I asked this. He sighed, shook his head and dolefully said:
"Not yet... I do remember she was younger than me by about 2 years though. So, I might ask some of the gru-" He cut himself off, before continuing, "Some of the guys if they know her." 'I doubt the grunts will tell you anything.'
"Well, the deal still stands. You remember her name, I'll tell you about myself." I was going to head to the Poke Center, but stopped in my tracks and turned. "Hey N, do you know where I can get chocolate for pokemon? And a Casteliacone? My mother loves Casteliacones, and I promised Zorua I'd buy her chocolate."
"That little stall we passed sells both, but Casteliacones sell out quickly." As soon as he finished, I was off like a Whimsicott. I was so focused I never realised that N was following.

By the time I got back to the stall there more than a dozen lined up, and it was still the early hours of the morning. I was mentally screaming at the fact the line was this long at half past 1 in the morning! "Don't worry (Y/n), they just opened. You'll get a Casteliacone." I jumped, forgetting completely that he was there. We waited in line silently, waiting for our turn. "I think I'll get one, should I buy one for you to?" N asked.
"I can pay, and I was going to buy some sweets for my pokemon to..." I argued back, but while I did, he was putting our orders in.
"So... Could we have two Casteliacones, one bar of chocolate for pokemon and three bags of berry sweets?" N politely asked, all while I was still ranting about why he didn't need to pay and other things. It's safe to assume he didn't listen to a word of it. He paid for everything and stepped out of the line, I followed him still ranting (Not on the original topic however), N seemed to have enough as he smeared a bit of his Casteliacone on my nose. I shut up and stood there, blinking, trying to refocus. "Do you want this or not?" N held out the Casteliacone, which I quickly snatched. He smiled lightly to this and shook his head. "Hey (Y/n), you do realise that when you were ranting you were really loud."

My face flushed to a brilliant shade of red, the embarrassment showing completely... But even still I felt happy? "... Thank you." I whispered, I myself unsure of what I thanked him for. I finally was relaxed around him. 'Like before...'
"Don't worry about it, it really wasn't that much!" He smiled. 'As dense as ever.' I shook my head and smiled. We walked around, joking and talking, sightseeing and more. At this point, it was almost 7 in the morning and I was spent. I was tripping over nothing for crying out loud! N was concerned after the third maybe fourth time, and dragged me to a bench. It was lovely, we were by the fountain looking at the sunrise over the sandy plains of route 4. It was a gorgeous sight, but I was so tired I must have fallen asleep as I only saw about five minutes of it.

N's P.O.V

'I'm still so curious about her! I can't read her or tell what she's thinking. She's so fascinating... If I want to learn more, I'll have to remember the name of the young (H/c) haired girl. But why would (Y/n) want to know her name? I'll ask her in a while.' I go to ask (Y/n) how she's doing, but I stop when I feel a light weight on my right shoulder. (Y/n) was leaning on my shoulder and was letting out soft breaths. She moved slightly making Zorua tumble down onto my shoulder, to which she snuggled into my neck. (Y/n) began to shiver, it was getting colder since it was almost winter. I pull her close and wrap my arms around her gently to keep her warm.

I sat here with my arms around her for a good hour before (Y/n) started sleep talking, I leaned in to listen; to find out what she was dreaming about. "Let me... Never wanted to..." 'Huh? Let her be what? Never wanted to?' "... Him... He can..." 'Who's he? Him?' "... His Zorua... Okay..." She was starting to stir, so I loosened my grip on her and she sleepily opened her eyes and sat up. "Ngh..." She groaned stretching her body. She tiredly yawned out a 'Hello'. She got comfy again and probably unknowingly cuddled up against me again.

"(Y/n)... You should probably go back to the Center, your friends may get here soon." She groaned and snuggled closer. 'Okay! What is she doing?! Last time we spoke, she would burst into tears if I said something to her!' I moved slightly and pushed her by the shoulders. "(Y/n)." I said in a stern voice, or at least the sternest voice I could muster without sleep. "What's up with you?" I was going to say something else when I saw the chain around her neck.
"Urgh... N? Why are we by a fount-" I cut her off. Ghetsis' necklace was with her. 'Why does she have his chain link?'
"Where did you get that necklace?" 'I need to know.'
"Uh... An old friend gave it to me?" 'I don't believe you.'
"Why did you answer like that?" 'Tell me who you are!'
"N, calm down. I got this necklace from an old friend who I happened to bump into, it was theirs originally but regifted it to me, something to remember them by." I was frustrated, my breathing was quickening; I felt enraged! I closed my eyes and tried to calm my breathing. The weight of Zorua on my shoulder had lifted and I felt something warm on my balled-up fists. I opened my eyes to see what was on my hand.

But I didn't get to look as I was looking into some big, round, warm (E/c) eyes, could I see my reflection in those glossy orbs. I saw something else in those eyes as well. 'What is that?' I just stared at them, trying to figure out what it is that I saw. 'I recognise these eyes... Not just because of the girl in front of me, but they're familiar...' I closed my eyes again to think. Almost instantaneously, something clicked and somehow, I put the pieces together. The familiar look, her knowledge on me, the necklace, the strange things she says. 'How could I be so stupid!?' I opened my eyes to tell her, but she was nowhere to be seen. I quickly searched around for her, but I couldn't see her. I sighed to myself, I lost her. Again. There was a small note on the bench, it read:
'I never said good night, never said good morning, but at least I'm saying good bye.'

"(Y/n)... I remember who she is now..."
