In the streets of Pewter City, all eyes were drawn to a single direction. A ridiculously handsome boy with lush blonde hair and a face that could launch a thousand ships was making his way through the crowd, carrying a girl in a princess carry. The boy's hands were slightly groping her body, his fingers brushing against her soft waist and plump bare thighs.
The girl's face was the very definition of "uwu" as she whispered for the boy to put her down, but he paid no mind, declaring that his "cab" doesn't stop till it reaches its destination. The girl could only bury her face in his chest, unable to bear the stares of everyone in the streets.
"Oh my god, did you see that guy? He's so hot!" one girl exclaimed to her friend.
"I know, right? And look at how gently he's holding her. What a gentleman!" her friend replied.
Meanwhile, an aunty in the crowd couldn't help but let out a low whistle. "Look at that young man, he's got the right idea. A real man knows how to treat a lady," she said, aimed at her companion.
Meanwhile, the boy was completely unaware of the attention he was drawing, his mind focused on reaching their destination - the Pokémon Center building.
"Hey, do you think he's a Pokémon trainer?" one girl asked her friend.
"I don't know, but I wouldn't mind if he was!" her friend replied with a giggle.
As soon as we stepped into the Pokémon Center, Misty sprang out of my arms like a jackrabbit on a pogo stick. Her hands flew up to cover her face, and she let out a mortified squeak. "Everybody was looking at us! What will they be thinking?!"
I chuckled and patted her back, trying to calm her down. "Don't worry, dear, nobody saw you!" I said with a grin, enjoying the sight of her flustered face.
Misty's head snapped towards me, her eyes wide with incredulity. "You have the gall to say that?!" she exclaimed, her voice rising in indignation.
I shrugged, unfazed. "I was just stating the truth. Everybody was so entranced with my handsome face that nobody noticed you." I said, striking a pose, my narcissism on full display.
Misty's face turned beet red with rage, and she looked like she was about to explode. "You...!" she spluttered, but I just laughed and walked away, leaving her to stew in her embarrassment.
I sauntered up to the main desk, where a lovely beauty with a big bust was standing, flashing a bright smile. She was a dead ringer for the Nurse Joy I had met in Viridian City, and I couldn't help but feel a spark of excitement.
"Good evening! How may I help you?" she asked, her eyes locking onto mine, and for a moment, she seemed distracted by my face. But then she snapped out of it and greeted me with a warm smile.
Misty caught up to me, still fuming, and asked for a dorm room for the night. Nurse Joy's eyes flicked between us, and she asked, "Are you two together?"
Misty nodded, still looking a bit dazed, and just then, she spotted a Slowpoke being carried by another trainer on his back. Her eyes widened in fascination, and she didn't notice when Nurse Joy asked the next question.
"Would you like two separate single-bed rooms or a single room with two beds?" Nurse Joy asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
I jumped in, a cheeky grin spreading across my face. "Oh, a single room with one bed would suffice, thank you!"
Nurse Joy's cheeks reddened slightly, and she looked like she was trying not to giggle. Misty, on the other hand, was oblivious to the implication, still staring at the Slowpoke. But then she turned back to us, and her eyes widened in surprise as she realized what I had just said.
Her eyes narrowed, and her teeth gritted, she looked like she was about to kill me. I just returned the gesture with a cheeky, innocent smile, enjoying the sight of her flustered face.
Nurse Joy typed something on the computer and then said, "That'll be 25 Poké Dollars, please."
I turned to Misty, my face scrunched up in a comically exaggerated expression of poverty. "Uh, I'm a bit broke, can you cover it?" I asked, batting my eyelashes at her.
Misty's face turned an even deeper shade of red, and she looked like she was about to throttle me. But I just chuckled and leaned against the counter, waiting for her to pay up.
Misty's eyes flashed with annoyance, but she reluctantly pulled out her wallet and handed over the 25 Poké Dollars. Nurse Joy took the payment with a smile and handed us a key card.
"Room 304, third floor. You can take the elevator or the stairs. And don't forget to heal your Pokémon before you head out tomorrow," she said, her eyes sparkling with friendliness.
I grinned and took the key card from her, feeling a sense of excitement at the prospect of sharing a room with Misty. I turned to her and said, "Shall we, my dear?"
Misty's face was still red with annoyance, but she nodded curtly and followed me to the elevator. We rode up to the third floor in silence, the tension between us palpable.
As we stepped out of the elevator, I turned to her and said, "You know, I'm starving. How about we grab some dinner before we head to the room?"
Misty nodded, still looking a bit flustered, and we made our way to the Pokémon Center's cafeteria. The food was decent, but the conversation was a bit silent-type initially before Misty mellowed down to my cute-ditto charms and came back to normal mood.
As we stepped out of the elevator on the third floor, I couldn't help but notice the look of relief on Misty's face. I chuckled to myself, knowing that she was probably eager to get some rest after our little adventure earlier.
We made our way to Room 304, and I slid the key card into the lock. The door clicked open, and Misty stepped inside, dropping her bag onto the floor. I followed suit, my eyes scanning the room.
"Ah, cozy little place," I said, trying to break the ice. Misty just nodded, her eyes fixed on the bathroom.
As we dropped off our stuff, I turned to her and said, "Why don't you go ahead and freshen up? I'll take a look around, see what the room has to offer."
Misty nodded wearily, clearly exhausted from the day's traveling. "Okay, do what you want," she said, her voice muffled as she made her way into the bathroom.
My heart was still aching from the traumatic Pidgeot incident. I needed...something to soothe the pain. Human babes, to be precise. Not that I'd ever dream of bothering my dear trainer, especially after three days of non-stop travel. Plus, she seemed pretty zonked out.
But a much more convenient kitty was bound to be lurking around this Pokémon Center. Plenty of opportunities for some "fun," as they say.
I let out a wickedly gleeful snicker.

Nurse Joy's eyes scanned the reports on her desk, her mind half-absent as she took in the usual quiet day's admissions. Only five Pokémon, none of them seriously injured - a typical day in Pewter City. She smiled wryly to herself, thinking about the city's Gym Leader, Brock. He was a kind soul, always going easy on trainers, but their personal interactions were...interesting, to say the least.
She felt a twinge of guilt for thinking it, but Brock's flirting attempts were always so...amateurish. She had learned to pretend she didn't notice, just to spare his feelings. Sighing inwardly, she pushed the thought aside.
Her gaze drifted back to the young couple who had checked in earlier. That boy...he was ridiculously handsome. She couldn't believe she had actually stared at him for a few seconds, her professional composure momentarily deserting her. Luckily, he hadn't seemed to notice.
The girl was cute too, if a bit...unconventionally dressed. Nurse Joy's eyebrows rose slightly as she thought about the outfit. She couldn't imagine wearing something so revealing herself.
But what really caught her attention was the boy's request for a single room - with one bed. Her mind wandered, wondering what their relationship was like. Were they really a couple? And if so...were they already intimate?
Nurse Joy's cheeks flushed slightly as she pushed the thoughts aside, trying to focus on her work. But her curiosity lingered, and she couldn't help sneaking a glance at the corridor, wondering what was going on in Room 304.
