Fix Me (A Pokémon Gold x Reader story)

🌸Two🌸

You lay in bed, wide-awake, with Sableye comfortably settled between your head and right shoulder. You couldn't sleep, excitement rushing through your veins. Should I run away? I mean, I have shelter and a guaranteed food source here, but... Your mind was racing, contemplating on what to do.

It's decided then, I really want to see my real parents. Who knows, maybe I already have a sibling! You stand up, trying not to wake Sableye. You grab your school backpack and empty it onto your bed to make less noise. You pack two sets of spare clothes, a comb, and all your savings as emergency money.

Next you scuttled into the bathroom. By then, you had waken up Sableye and he was tiredly perched on your shoulder, leaning against your head as he prepared to sleep. He clung to your shirt so he wouldn't fall off. So cute! you smile. Meanwhile, you snagged your toothbrush and a tube of travel toothpaste. You grabbed a small first-aid kit, including some burn, ice, poison, and paralyze heals for Sableye. Hey, you can never be too safe.

"Hey bud, I'm grabbing us some snacks and the folding tent from the closet, then we can leave." You whisper to your Sableye. You were going to pack the tent first because shelter is great for protection in the wild. It was basically four sturdy rods with fabric attached that made a pyramid shaped tent when you unfolded them. It even came with a bag to put it in. You grabbed it out of the downstairs closet before packing some water bottles, packaged and canned food, and some assorted gems for Sableye, who claims all gems taste different.

Finally you were ready. You opened the door, took one last look at your home, and left, closing the door. "Bye mom and dad," you whispered.

Sableye seemed a little upset at first but climbed down into your arms for you to carry him while he slept. You smiled and headed for the casino. The casino works late on Sundays, I'll catch Cameron and ask him for some help.

When you arrived, Cameron looked up and waved at you, smiling. "Hey there Rookie, where are your parents? Isn't it a bit late?" He chuckles before resuming his business. He was polishing a counter.

You rolled your eyes. Rookie was a dumb nickname he gave you, after you tried to play a game of pool against him. Well he was ten and you were seven, you were bound to lose. Not to mention all you knew was 'knock the white ball against everything and hope you win'. "Cam, I'm running away from home. Any tips?"

He frowns. "Well, I don't have tips; I haven't been out much." He sends out his Umbreon to hangout with Sableye, who immediately woke up and began to play with the yellow-ringed Pokémon. "However, my uncle is a gym leader in Kalos. He gave me this utility belt for my birthday last year but I don't think I want to become a trainer or anything. Umbreon is all I need." He smiles at said Pokémon, who barks happily before resuming his play. "I can grab it for you if you need it, it's got a Great ball and ten Pokéballs, in a pouch on the right and clips on the left to hold occupied ones."

"I'd like that, thank you." You smile.

Cameron nods, "it could take a while, but it's in the back. Don't move." He heads through the double doors in the back and disappears.

After about 20 seconds of waiting, a boy your age approaches you. He has raven hair swept up into his yellow and black cap, a red coat, and charming golden eyes. "Well, I didn't know sexy girls like you live around here. What's your name?" He attempts to flirt, reaching for your hand.

You pull back, "well I'm (Name) and don't fucking touch me please." You were tired and did not want to be bothered. You'd be wandering away for at least a few more hours before you could safely rest.

"Woah, calm down, I'm not going to try anything." He lets out a scoff.

You glare fire into his soul doesn't he know you should never tell a pissed woman to calm down?! You curl your hands into fists, ready to bury them into his face any moment. "I'll have you know, Goldenrod girls don't play with playboys."
