Joy set the tray down next to the bed and threw a cautious glance at Hannah who glared at the Older woman.
'What's she doing here? Isn't she supposed to be at the Counter like the Other Joy's?' Hannah thought with clenched fists but open hearing the anime continue, She was forced to turn back to the screen.
Joy looked at Red.
"Red, You look a bit stressed," Joy said, "Was it that stressful to help out?"
"No," Red said, "I was just thinking about some stuff,"
The aroma of the food was amazing, Red was almost salivating.
"If you're tired, I can feed you," Joy proposed with a bright blush, "You know, as thanks for everything. I could never talk to the Council alone… but you did, You helped me out a lot and even restored the Network, This is the least I could do,"
Red blushed… Never had a woman offered to feed him, The Reincarnated him not the Original.
"If you want to," Red said and averted his gaze from her bright blue eyes, Both of them were embarrassed.
Joy nodded and took a spoonful of rice, she raised it to Red's face.
"Say Aah," Joy said with her red face.
Red slowly opened his mouth and Joy stabbed the food in quickly, filling his mouth with rice.
It was just plain rice but Red couldn't help but feel the sweetness, especially since it was being fed to him by Joy.
She took another Spoonful of rice and scooped up stew after Red finished chewing and put it in Red's mouth. This time, Red felt an explosion of flavors… This food was really sweet.
…
Joy smiled as she looked at the empty tray and bowls, Red had finished them all and he looked as calm as ever albeit a little shy.
Her heart fluttered as she had always wanted… someone. Ever since she came to this town, No one had ever been interesting enough for her.
This was not a big city like Viridian or Celadon neither was it a small city like Pewter or a small town like Pallet, Rather it was a smaller town with less resources.
There were traveling trainers that she met, There had been a lot lately since the Indigo League as well as Quartz Conference participants were roaming around the region aiming to get their Badges.
But this Red was strange… He was stranger than any other Trainer she had met. There was a trainer who came a while ago with his Machoke, He had demanded for their facilities and when she told him about the lack of light, Not only had he cursed her but the town as well before leaving to Pewter city.
When she met Red and his party, She had prepared herself for another volley of Insults but she was met with thoughtful selfless actions… Red had helped her and now they had electricity. Joy wasn't sure what Red had done but she knew that it had involved a lot of battling.
His Pokemon were beyond exhausted when they had reached here and she had them in the Rejuvenation machines, She was sure they would be ready to go by tomorrow morning.
Joy leaned in, under the watchful gaze of Hannah. Her hot breath sent waves of pleasure through Red's body.
"Thank you," She whispered and kissed Red's cheek. The feeling lasted for about a second, The feeling of lips being pressed against his cheeks vanished as Joy was out the door with the tray with her the next moment later.
Red put his hand on his cheek, still rubbing the place where he was kissed. Everything seemed like a dream to him.
"Red," Hannah said while narrowing her eyes at him, "Did you enjoy the kiss?"
"Umm, I did but I would like one from you too," Red said, He wasn't going to end up being hated by the Little girl.
Hannah gathered her hair and blushed.
"Fine," Hannah said and paused the anime, She descended from the chair and walked to Red slowly, wrapping her arms around him.
The sounds of a smaller pair of lips smacking against his cheeks sounded through the room, Unlike the kiss with Nurse Joy that was short-lived… Hannah seemed to be lengthening it, savoring the kisses she gave to both of his cheeks.
It took an entire minute for Hannah to finish her kisses and with a slight blush, She returned to watch anime.
Red clicked his tongue as he fell back down to the bed with a full stomach, His thoughts swirling as his eyes closed shut and he went to Dreamland.
…
Red watched his Pokemon train, Their vigor shown as they repeated the exercises.
Charmeleon was gathering Steel energy and attacking the nearby rocks with a Metal Claw, His metal claw had far increased in power and speed. It took far lesser time for Charmeleon to summon his Steel energy which was a considerable improvement.
If Red was to calculate the amount of time it took to summon the energy for an attack, It would be amounting to 5 seconds but even a single second was crucial in a Pokemon battle… He wanted Charmeleon to be able to summon Steel energy within a split second.
Pidgey's training was going well, Her speed and flight training was increasing her speed and soon, Red was sure she would be ready for Evolution any day now.
Scyther's Redirection skill had been trained upon, After all, Red had an Electric Pokemon of his own. Pichu served as a decisive training partner for Scyther, and the training helped both of them improve as Pichu not only learned to harness more power in his Thunderbolt but Scyther also gained valuable training to add to his mastery of Steel energy.
Nidorino was now alternating between an Hour of practicing the gathering of Poison energy and an hour of physical training, Red was grasping the various attributes that Nidorino failed to possess… One attribute that Nidorino did not have was simple Physical attack strength.
"Yes, Riolu. Keep doing those push-ups!" Red cheered.
