Pokemon the power of us: Toren x reader

I'm very accident-prone

Hello, my readers, who actually exist. Wow. Thanks for reading that last chapter. Also, I have no idea how I found this picture. I was just searching through the depths of the internet, as I've said before, none of the artwork is mine. And yes, I have a hundred pictures of this boy saved on my computer. Also, I'm making the story progress slower than in the movie, from a few days to several months. Just so the romance makes sense. So while the story will start during the festival, the main part of it will take place later. Now for the story.

Toren's pov:

"Toren!" y/n said shocked.

I looked at the girl in front of me, I was so speechless that my brain might have short-circuited. Like someone from My Hero Academia. (づ>‿>)づHere was the pretty girl from earlier, who I had assumed I definitely wouldn't be seeing again today. I had no idea how to talk to girls.

She seemed just as shocked to see me again, her jaw was practically on the floor. She was standing right next to Jason, with Froakie, and now, to give it some thought, I realized they looked really similar. 

"Oh, I see you two have already met," Jason said."Well, Toren, this is your new lab assistant, my sister y/n," I took a double-take, They're siblings?!? Their similarities make sense now.

"I...I k-knew I was g-going to.. be working w-with an y-y/n, b-but I didn't k-know it w-would be this y-y/n."I said.

"Toren will get more used to you as you guys work together, as you can see he's very shy," Jason said to y/n, "I bet in a week or two he might even be able to not stutter."

This slightly embarrassed me, but when I heard y/n give a little chuckle my face turned a bright red. I thought I might have been developing a crush. Oh who was kidding, I already had one.

"Well I'll leave you two to get to work," Jason said," I have my own things to do,"

Y/N pov:

I looked at Toren, he was just so cute. And don't even get me started on how cute he was when he used chancy as his 'emotional support pokemon'.  Right now he was hugging her, and mumbling to himself. She didn't seem to mind though, usually, when I hug Froakie he wants to get out of my grasp as fast as possible. 

"Sooooo, um I guess we work together now?"I said, a bit awkwardly, "You're my boss now, hmm," It seemed strange to me that a guy who basically my same age, or just a few years older than me, was my boss. I always imagined my boss as an old dude who yelled a lot. Not a boy who I may or may not be crushing on. Ok, I'm definitely crushing on him.

Btw readers, just to make things as least awkward as possible for our boy Toren here, workplace relationships will be normal. I know that a lot of people would think it would be weird or tabu, but it's just gonna normal here. Also, he's only technically y/n's boss, I think Toren would more often treat y/n as an equal than his assistant.

But then again, this means I get to see him a lot more. He probably wouldn't like me back, but we could at least be good friends. I think. I hope?

"So umm is there anything, you need me to do Toren. Or do I call you professor Toren? ya know, just curious, but why didn't you tell me you were a professor?"I asked. 

"Umm, "Gulp, "Just T-Toren is f-fine... and I-I Didn't t-tell you... because I-It's embarrassing When I-I t-tell people... u-usually they j-just...act s-strangely around me, "He said.  

"Oh, ok. That makes sense," I said. Hmm, he's wearing a lab coat! That should have pointed it out to me. I'm so dumb.

"And I-I g-guess... y-you can f-finish synthesizing t-the... s-smeargle Ink t-that I was synthesizing earlier, I-I didn't get t-to finish w-working on it." he said, "but I-It's more or l-less a slow d-day here at t-the lab, cause o-of the festival, we w-won't be doing m-much"
