Pokémon Gladion x Moon - More than a Friend

Part 4

About 2 hours later, Moon went to Gladion's room. She wanted to give him a full explanation. She knocked on the door that she saw Gladion run into earlier that day. Gladion opened the door. "Oh. There something you need to tell me?" "Well... yeah. Can I come in?" she answered. "Um... y-yeah" he said a little quieter than before, while moving to one side to let Moon in. While Moon entered the room she made note of some things. It didn't seem like his room. It was too white and tidy, but that's probably not his fault. There was a large closet, she thought that if she were to open it, she would see a lot more black ripped clothes. Moon sat down on the foot of the bed and Gladion sat next to her. "What did you want to talk to me about?" he said. "I... I wanted to tell you the real reason I need a place to stay." she answered. "hm, I guess I didn't ask you earlier" Gladion mentioned. "Well... my family has been... p-pretty poor my entire life" Moon clutched her left arm, and continued "m-my mom just... sh-she can't afford a house anymore" Tears started rolling down her face. Gladion was taken back. "I... I never knew." Gladion didn't know what else to do but hug her. This was a different kind of hug than before, this was the kind of hug that says 'I'm here for you'. Moon couldn't stop herself from crying. Every sob Gladion would hold her closer. "Thank you... so much" Moon said, muffled on Gladion's shoulder. They sat there for what felt like an hour until Moon finally let go. It would be obvious she was blushing if she hadn't been crying. She went back to her room to go get some sleep.
