While You Were Sleeping (An Amourshipping Story)

Chapter 6

The rest of the visit was awkwardly silent. No one wanted to say anything as it hit them that Calem only had one testicle. Eventually, the family decided to leave and quietly said goodbye to Serena, who took the opportunity to go home herself. When she entered her apartment, it was nighttime, and she silently fed Fennekin without looking at her Pokemon before she plopped onto her couch. Serena took a pillow and put it on her face to muffle a scream. She stayed lying down with the pillow on her face until she heard a knock on her door.

"Who is it?" she asked in a weary voice.

"Tierno," Tierno said.

Serena growled in annoyance as she stood up and walked over to her door. Tierno walked inside as soon as she opened the door, upset at the honey blonde woman.

"What gives Serena?" he rebuked. "You stood me up!"

"For what?" Serena asked, pretending to be clueless.

"For our date to the ice capades," Tierno answered. "I had to give the extra ticket to my pop."

Serena rolled her eyes and said, "I never agreed to go on a date with you, Tierno."

"Yes, you did," Tierno said.

"No, I didn't," Serena said.

"You did."

"No, I didn't."

"Did too."

"Did not."

"Did too."

"Did not."

"You absolutely did."

Serena growled again and said, "Look, Tierno, you can't just say that you have a date with a woman without asking her first, and you especially can't tell people you're dating her when you aren't."

"Says you," Tierno said.

Serena opened her mouth to speak again until she heard another knock on her door.

"Who is it?" she asked.

"It's Sonia," Sonia said from the other side of the door.

"Oh, for heaven's sake," Serena muttered under her breath.

"Sonia? Who is Sonia?" Tierno asked.

Serena huffed before she pushed Tierno to her closet. The fat man uttered words of protest as she opened the closet door and shoved him inside.

"Not a word from you," she commanded before she slammed the door shut.

Serena sighed heavily and collected herself before she walked back to the entrance. She opened the door to find Sonia giving her a friendly look as she let herself in.

"Hey. Thought I heard someone else. Do you have company?" She asked.

"Oh, no. It's just...the TV from next door," Serena lied.

"Ah. I see," Sonia said.

Fennekin walked over to Sonia as the peach-haired woman entered the living room. Sonia smiled and knelt down to pet the fox Pokemon behind the ears.

"How are you doing, Fennekin? Did you miss me?" she asked.

"Fennekin," Fennekin said as Sonia scratched it behind the ears.

"Do you want some coffee or tea, Sonia?" Serena asked.

Sonia stood up and said, "Oh, no, thank you. I'm not staying for very long."

"You're not?" Serena asked.

"No, I want to make this brief," Sonia said as she sat down on Serena's couch. "Take a seat."
