Well, here's chapter four. Things are getting dramatic! Thanks to chapters one through three for the foundation. Enjoy.
It doesn't seem to end. I wish she could see we're becoming distant now. I have to get her to see what's going on…she's becoming someone different. She's not the same Blue I fell in love with.
Honchkrow slowed down at the entrance to the forest and set Silver to the ground. He took out his Pokeball and returned the big crow.
"You deserve a rest," he said.
Silver looked at the forest entrance nervously and took a deep breath.
Just find her…, he thought.
He walked into the forest and looked for any signs of movement and listened for any voices. All he saw were the many trees covered in raindrops and all sound was forsaken. As he walked, his footsteps appeared loud in the silence of the forest, but an abrupt rustle in the bushes broke the quiet.
Silver stopped and looked around, hoping to find Blue, but saw nothing. He glared at the bush where the rustle came from.
"You tricked me. Bastard," he said grimly.
"Silver?" a familiar voice called. Silver looked up and saw Blue walking towards him with, to his dismay, Green at her side. There seemed to be something glinting in their hands as they approached.
"Hey, Silver! Haven't seen you in a while!" Blue exclaimed.
"Yeah…you haven't." he mumbled and then looked at their hands and saw two golden shimmers. "What's that?"
Blue and Green hurriedly put their hands in their pockets, but Blue realized she didn't have one, so she shoved her hand into Green's free pocket.
"Just some rocks we found," Green replied.
"Rocks, eh? Shiny rocks?" Silver questioned.
"Yes. Anyway, we should be going. We have more important things to be doing. You understand, right?" Green retorted with an arrogant smirk.
"Like it?" Silver muttered through clenched teeth.
Green scowled at him.
"Actually," Blue interrupted, "I think I'll stay and talk to Silver!"
Green frowned. "Well, okay then. I'll just be at the gym." He hugged Blue and walked out of the forest, glaring at Silver suspiciously. Once Green was out of sight, Silver looked for the 'rock', but nothing was in Blue's hands.
"I haven't seen you in awhile!" Blue said happily as she threw her arms around Silver's neck.
"I know…" Silver replied, hugging her back. The two released from their embrace and Blue started talking about what she had been doing for the past month. Silver was paying no attention to what she was saying. He was too busy admiring her beauty. Her long, brown hair swayed in the gentle breeze and her glimmering blue eyes stared at him as her soothing voice continued to rant. Silver was so enticed by her voice, it only deepened his trance.
"Silver?" Blue called. "Are you okay?"
"What? Oh, fine!" Silver replied while wiping a small amount of drool off his lips.
But then the reason for him being here struck him—he had to confront her about it.
"Hey," he said to get Blue's attention. "Y'know, I go through the forest on my way home."
At hearing this, Blue looked at him, a little confused.
"Okay?"
"And I heard some noises from the bushes…" Silver continued and Blue started to turn red.
"Oh, did you? Well, th-that's…"
"So I hid behind a tree and snuck into a bush to see…" Silver interrupted.
Blue became even more nervous as her cheeks burned scarlet. "Well, i-it could've been…"
"I saw, Blue," Silver said quietly. "You and Green were kissing in that clearing."
Blue's nervousness completely disappeared after hearing what Silver had just told her.
"So you were spying?" she asked angrily.
"It's not 'spying' if it's not intended," he corrected. "But anyway…"
"Why'd you watch?!" she yelled, very agitated at this point.
"Well, at first I didn't know what the hell was going on!" he yelled back.
"It's not your place to know my private life! And you act as if you had no clue me and Green were dating!"
Silver looked down at the ground. "Why don't you just give up on him? Don't you remember what he did to you?"
The bad memory ran across Blue's mind, but she shook it off. "Silver, that was a year ago. It's done, and I've forgiven him for it."
"Blue," Silver sighed as he put his hands on Blue's shoulders. "Don't you remember what happened between us after he did that?" he finished with a hint of desperation in his voice.
Blue backed away from his touch. "Silver…you can't keep clinging to that. I saw him kiss Sabrina, and then I kissed you, but…that kiss was only for revenge. No feeling in it whatsoever." Blue replied calmly.
"Blue, neither of those situation were just a 'kiss'. Green and Sabrina were pretty much making out, and you know it—you saw it. And…well, we were, too…", he corrected, but then realized--he had only been used for revenge on Green. "But that doesn't matter now…thanks for playing games with me that day."
Silver looked at the ground, wondering about everything that had just been said.
"Silver, I…"
"Damnit!" Silver yelled, causing a flocks of Pidgey to fly out from the trees. "Why'd you do that to me?!"
"Silver, I was angry!" Blue cried.
"Save it. You have no heart…" Silver muttered grimly as he looked up at Blue, who's eyes were now red with tears.
"I-I'm going…" Blue said as she sniffled and wiped the tears off her face. "Unfortunately, my ship in V-Vermilion doesn't leave 'til f-five tomorrow…"
"Pfft. So you're leaving your cheating boyfriend?"
"No! I'm leaving to get the hell away from you!!" she cried as she started running out of the forest.
Silver watched Blue rush past him, wondering what just came over him. The moment she was no longer visible, he fell to his knees. He started shaking violently as he stared at the ground with a look of horror on his face.
What have I done?, he asked himself.
"Why did I just do that?! Idiot!!" he yelled as he pounded the ground with his fists. He remained in this position for half and hour, his mind replaying the scene that had just taken place. And then it dawned on him—he still had a chance.
I can still correct this. Tomorrow, I have to get to her…, he thought with a glint of hope.
Silver got up and left the forest. Darkness had now set in.
Was I in there that long?
He walked past a few brick houses, a hobo, and then stopped to stare at what was a few paces in front of him—the Viridian Gym. He thought of Green and how they both acted in the forest, and in front of Blue at that.
I guess I'll apologize to him later…
~~~
He opened to door to his little brick house. Giovanni seemed to be engrossed in paperwork as he jotted onto a sheet of paper.
"Father?" Silver tried to get his attention.
"Son?" Giovanni mumbled back.
"I, uh…well, tomorrow me and Gold have something to take care of, so we won't be hanging out here…"
"That's fine, Silver.", Giovanni replied, still into his work. "I actually have some business to tend to myself."
"Oh…mkay, then. I'm off to bed." Silver replied with a small wave.
"Alright. Good night."
"Night." Silver called back as he headed up the stairs.
"Oh, and Silver…" Giovanni called, looking up from his papers.
"Hm?"
"You know, Gold's not as withdrawn as you are. I'm sure you and Blue will have something." he said with a smile.
Silver gave a weak smile back. "Thanks." He replied as he continued up the stairs.
He opened the door to his room and found Gold sprawled out on the floor in slumber. Careful not to wake him, Silver quietly closed the door. He set his bag beside his desk and took off his silver tie, laying it neatly on top of the desk. He unbuttoned his shirt and tossed it into the floor, revealing a plain white t-shirt. He got his PokeGear out of his bag and got on his bed to lie down. He turned his PokeGear on, lowered the volume, and set it to the PokeMusic station. Silver placed it next to him and he turned to face it.
The quiet radio DJ spoke softly.
'This is a new song from BuckCherrim called Sorry!' he announced.
An acoustic guitar started to strum softly and followed with a soothing rocker voice.
'Oh I had a lot to say
Was thinking on my time away
I missed you and things weren't the same
Cause everything inside, it never comes out right
And when I see you cry, it makes me wanna die'
Sure does…. Silver thought.
'I'm sorry I'm bad, I'm sorry I'm blue
I'm sorry 'bout all the things I said to you
And I know, I can't take it back'
I only wish I could…
I love how you kiss, I love all your sounds
And baby the way you make my world go 'round
And I just wanted to say
I'm sorry'
Very, Silver thought as he drifted into sleep, with the radio still playing in his ear.
Just A Brother
Chapter Four: Regrets
It doesn't seem to end. I wish she could see we're becoming distant now. I have to get her to see what's going on…she's becoming someone different. She's not the same Blue I fell in love with.
