Worry Seed [Reader x Asexual!Steven Stone]

"I can teach a move to a Pokemon of yours if you'd like. I'll do it if you'll trade me a Heart Scale."

>Worry Seed. A seed that causes worry is planted on the target. It prevents sleep by making the target's ability Insomnia.

After a quick flight to Mossdeep City, I hopped off Latias and gave her a treat as a thank you. She made a small squeal in joy, and took off again to who-knows-where.  

I walked north of the city, heading to Steven's house. His house was near the edge of the city, and from there you could look out to the ocean and see the main land, and all the water Pokemon swimming around happily. 

Once I got there, I knocked on the door, and nervously fidgeted. Sure, we've been together for a month or so by now, but I still wasn't used to the fact that Steven Stone was my boyfriend. 

I heard the door unlock, and open, revealing him and his beautiful smile. 

"Ah, _____, come in!" Steven stood besides the door, holding it open for me. 

"Thanks." I replied, walking in. Various rocks were scattered on the center table, and Metagross was next to said table, resting on the floor. "Where'd you go this time?" I asked, looking at the stones.

"Granite Cave. I had to go visit with my father so I thought I should stop by on the way there." The silver haired boy said, going back to looking over them, and sorting them appropriately. I noticed a round, marble looking stone; a mega stone, in the mix. 

"You found a mega stone? What's it for?" I asked, picking it up and looking closer. It was light blue and gray. 

"I believe it's for Steelix. Do you want it?" He asked as he finished sorting multicolored granite rocks and evolutionary stones. 

"Nah, I don't have a Steelix." I said, placing it back on the table. "What else did you find? Anything good?"

"Just the usual; granite, basalt, moon stones..." He said, looking over his rocks. I smiled; admit it, he's adorable. "Maybe tomorrow I'll go to Meteor Falls. Would you like to accompany me?" 

"Wait, like a date...?"

"...Would you like it to be a date?" Steven asked, both of our faces growing pink. 

"...Well we haven't been on many so, sure, why not?" 

"Alright then, what time would you like me to pick you up?" 

"Whenever you're ready."

"I'll try not to be too late." He said, taking his sorted rocks and putting them in the correct cases. "Is there anything you'd like to do today?"

"Nah, I just came to see what you were up to." I replied. "Is there anything you had in mind?"

"Maybe after I finish putting everything away..." 

"Oh?"

With a red face, he took the rest of his rocks and put them in the other room, while I stood there and waited for him to come back. 

Shortly after, Steven reappeared, but now without his jacket. Laying down on his bed, he patted the space besides him, signaling for me to lay down. Happily, I did. I knew what he wanted. I put my head on his chest, and he put his arm in the usual position around me. He'd slightly rub my back, while every now and then I'd nuzzle into his chest. 

Normally we'd talk, but for some reason, Steven was quiet. 

"Are you ok?" I asked, after a long moment of silence.

"Yes? Why do you ask?" 

"You're just so quiet." I said, propping my head up on my hand.

"It's nothing, ____, don't worry about it." The Champion smiled, giving me a small peck on the cheek. "I just didn't sleep well last night; I'll be fine tomorrow." 

"Then maybe I should go? And let you rest?" I offered.

Steven hesitated before answering. "But you just got here..."

"I don't have to go; I was only thinking what's best for you." I told him. "If you don't want me to go; I won't."

"Unless if you wanted to go; that's fine with me."

"I never said I wanted to leave."

"But you offered to so I assumed..."

We went back and forth like this for a little bit, until I finally stopped it. "Steven Stone, there's something wrong and I'm not leaving until you tell me what's bothering you." 

"...I'm just worried that you'd leave me because...you know." He confessed.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I said. 

"I'm scared that you'll get bored of me because of my...uh...sexual preferences." 

"Steven, let this be the last time I have to tell you this." I started. "I'm not going to get bored of you just because we don't have sex. We don't need that to be happy. I'm more than happy just being around you and listening you go on about your rocks, and cuddling together like this. I'm feel lucky just being able to say we're together." 

The stone collecter's face was slightly red. "Really?"

"Of course." I told him, giving him a peck on the cheek. "I love you."

He smiled before giving me a small kiss on my lips. "I love you too." 

That night, we both managed to sleep peacefully.
