Take My Hand

You were alone again. You were used to being alone, that's why you went to the Garden often. The wild Pokémon would often be at your side. People don't really not like you that much. You were a little bit *ahem* above the average weight for the social standards. At least the Pokémon were at your side.

You were sitting on a bench, sharing a lunch you packed with you with a few of the wild pokemon. A Panpour you assumed was wild was braiding your hair while the pidoves, foongi, And Deerling tethered 'round to have a bite of the small treats you brought with you. You offered the kind Panpour one, but he kindly refused.

That's when you heard a voice calling out the name of the elemental monkey who had just finished braiding some flowers into your hair. He looked up and jumped around in front of you, giving you a bow. You offer the treat one more time, the Pokémon hesitated before taking the little treat and calmly walking off to wherever the male voice was.

You smiled and watched the Panpour as he walked off. You caught a glimpse of the trainer he was with. He had blues hair, blue eyes, fair skin, and- OH MY GOD. That Panpour belonged to the gym leader, Cress!!! You were flabbergasted! As Panpour was about to be returned to his pokeball he waved at you. 

Cress looked over to where Panpour was waving and saw you, staring at where Panpour was. Cress smiled and waved too, walking back to the resteraunt. dinner rush was going to start soon and he needed Panpour for some extra hands. But he was very happy Panpour managed to make a friend when he comes to the garden.

Take My Whole Life Too

You were in the garden again, just like every Day. This time Panpour wasn't here. Of course, his trainer must have told him not to come. After people see you and your extra *ahem* fluffy self they normally hate you and don't want to be around. Right now you were resting on the ground with your legs crossed. A petlil and a Sewaddle were curled up in your lap and you just smiled, sitting there.

That's when the same Panpour that belonged to Cress walked up. He held an Oran berry in each hand. He extended one to you. You hesitated and made silent gestures to ask if it was for you. Panpour nodded and smiled when you took the berry and popped it into your mouth. Oran berries were your favorite. You smiled and enjoyed the berry, looking up to see the sky. On your way up you stop, seeing an actual human being there.

"Hello, would you mind if I join you?"

I can't Help

You froze. No way. No way this was actually real. There wasn't any way that a cute guy woulda be talking to you of all people! In utter shock and awe, you shake your head. Cress smiled and takes a seat next to you, Panpour crawling into his lap happily and curling up like the Petlil and Sewaddle In your own lap. 

"It seems Panpour has taken a liking towards you. That's wonderful. My name is Cress. I'm sure you know me, but I'd prefer making a good first introduction."

He smiled kindly and stuck out his hand. This was a dream come true for you! One of the Striaton triplets actually talking to you, paying attention to you, and even introducing themselves to you! On any normal occasion, something like this would be astronomical! In fact, it is astronomical! Thank Arceus, Thank Mew, Thank everything this world jas in subsitiutuon for the word God and God himself. This truly was a blessing for a socially awkward overweight person like you.

"Woah, this can't be real! Uh, Er, well, I'm (Your name)."

Cress giggled at your stuttering. You cursed yourself out internally for stuttering, but in reality Cress found it cute. In fact, he found you entirely cute. You were kind to Pokémon and acted adorable. Even if you had a few more pounds, it was just more of you to get to know. Plus he preferred bigger people. (Cough THICC cough)

"(Your name), huh? It suits you."

Your heart was beating faster than ever. Your face rushed with a big ol blush and you looked down in embarassment. Petlil and Sewaddle were still happily enjoying their nap. That's when a Deerling came up and decided to nuzzle Into your shin. You and Cress watched as Deerling settled in and closed her eyes. You smiled at it, forgetting about the compliment.

"You have an excellent way with wild Pokémon."

Cress pointed out, actually amazed that so many wild pokemon are comfortable around you. Maybe that's why Panpour likes You so much and leaves to come here every single day. You were worth visiting every single day.

"Oh, uh, when you have nobody else who loves you the Pokémon learn who you are. Heh heh..."

You nervously laughed, your voice fading. You focused on the steady breathing of the three grass types from the garden. Cress saw that awkward smile fall. Nobody else who loves you? He looked down at Panpour, who sadly nodded. That didn't sit right with Cress. Why would people not love someone so kind and caring?! He had to change that. He had to make you believe otherwise. He extended his hand and placed it ontop of yours, earning your attention and getting you to look him in the eyes.

"That's a lie. I'm sure someone loves you. Even if not now, someday somebody will."

You just looked in his eyes, feeling yourself tear up. This really was the best day ever. Cress not only gave you attention, but basically told you that you were loved. You wanted to cry. You're hesrt wanted to explode. Your cheeks were burning. You were so happy. This was the happiest day of your entire life.

Falling in love with you.

Yeah, I did an overweight Reader because I, myself, and overweight and more often than not have people judge me based on my weight. I'm heavy. 

Sorry about the sucky writing.
