Uila ends the call with Augustine, placing her phone in her pocket and pulls the blanket around her tighter. Her pokemon were scattered about the house, on high alert, and Leon had contacted Officer Jenny, who was working with her Sisters in Alola. Threatening a challenger was a serious deal in Galar, and since she had history with him, it made it that much more serious.

    She sighs, turning on the TV and watching Raihan's battles. It was a sight to see, his brows furrowed and face painted with worry. His fans were even more curious about who or what he was worried over, but decided it was better to not ask. She watched his pokemon take out people left and right, and he was not pulling any punches. He knew that if he finished all of his battles he would be able to get home faster.

    Lucario approached his trainer with a cup of tea, Manectric curling up next to her on the couch. She smiles and rubs their heads. "Thanks guys." "Mane!" "Lucario." "It means a lot guys, although I understand why you guys are here. Where is Ampharos and Garchomp?" "Lucar!" "What do you mean you can't tell me?" "Io!" "Well that's just rude." She takes a drink of the tea and smiles. She turns back to the TV, finding it showing her battle against Raihan in the Recap. She plays with Manectric's fur and watches the spectator's comments on the battles, slightly pleased with the reviews on her battle. When one kid was asked who's battle he liked best, he responded with: "Number 06's definitely! The way her Garchomp changed form and was able to win, she is the coolest!"

Lucario and Manectric tense up as the doorknob jiggles, before relaxing as Raihan pokes his head in. He shut the door behind him and smiled softly. "Hey sweetheart, how are you doing?" She nods. "I'm better. Manectric and Lucario have been here with me, and we've just been watching your battles." He walks over and kisses Uila's forehead softly. "I'm going to take a shower and then I'll get started on dinner alright?" She nods. "Sounds good."

A couple minutes pass and Raihan exits the room, wearing a tanktop and a pair of shorts. He gives a quick kiss to Uila's temple before making his way to the kitchen, determined to brighten his girlfriend's day. She smiles at her boyfriend, pulling out her phone and scrolling through social media. She immediately noted that some of his fans were questioning her on him. '@Queen_Electricity do you have any idea of what is wrong with Raihan?' '@Queen Electricity is Raihan alright? He seemed fine for a little while until he got called up the champions box, then he seemed out of it.' She gave half-hearted 'I don't know.' responses to the flood of comments.

"Princess! Food is ready." She heard her boyfriend call out. She untangled herself from the blankets, making her way to the dinner table, finding 2 plates of steaming curry. She smiles and pulls her boyfriend into a hug. "Thank you, it looks so good." He wraps his arms around her, squeezing back. "It's not a problem sweetheart. Now, let's eat." They settled down at the table, making small talk as they ate.

"Your fans are worried about you." Raihan smiles, eyes narrowing playfully. "They are? And how do you know this?" She rolls her eyes. "They are reaching out to me through comments and DM's. They really care about you." She shoves a spoonful of the curry into her mouth as he thinks. "Well, I appreciate them, but I am more concerned about you." She feels her cheeks heat up slightly. "Thanks, I am doing better. I think just the shock hit me hard." He nods. "Which is why we are watching a movie and I am giving you all of the cuddles and kisses you could possibly want." She smiles, standing up and grabbing the plates and going to the kitchen. Before she could turn on the tap, she was scooped up by Raihan. "Nope, you are not doing any dishes. I was serious about the movie, so go ahead and pick one out while I do the dishes." She opened her mouth to protest but he silenced it with a quick kiss before moving to do the dishes.

She flicks on the TV, scrolling through movies before landing on one. 'The Princess Bride'. She selected it and grabbed a blanket, waiting patiently for Raihan to start the movie. Said man took one look at the TV screen and smiled. "Good choice. Now scooch so that I can sit." Uila scoots over, Raihan sitting down next to her and immediately wrapping his arms around her. He gives a soft kiss to her temple before starting the movie, pulling the blanket over them and interlacing his fingers with hers.

He would be damned if he would let that bastard ex do anything to her. Guzma made one last mistake; angering the dragon protecting its most prized treasure.
