Work Text:
Tapping the tip of his pencil against the table, Gold glared daggers at the paperwork he was supposed to do.
If only someone had told him how many papers he’d have to do once being a champion. He blames Lance for this.
The ebony haired let out another sigh and tried to focus on the paper below him, to no avail.
He didn’t hear the knock on the door, and nearly jumped or died on his chair when the door opened.
“Gold, weren’t you supposed to be leaving soon ?” Asked Silver, poking his head through the door.
Fuck, Gold forgot.
He was supposed to eat lunch with his boyfriend and his partner.
He put his head in his hands and griped his hair, annoyed at himself and tired of working.
“I completely forgot..I still got some work to do.. Hey Silv ?”
Gold raised his head to look at the red haired with his remaining eye. The silver eyed male hummed in response, wondering what the gold eyed would want.
“Can you message my babes and tell them I won’t be able to make it ?”
To be honest, Silver didn’t know what was going on in Gold’s love life. He knew he had multiple partners, 2 exactly, he didn’t know much else.
He grabbed the champion’s phone and unlocked it.
“How do I know it’s them ?”
“One of them is Weife, and the other one is Wify. But you can just go to our group chat, don’t have to do it individually.” The gold eyed answer trying once again to focus on his work.
Silver did not know his partners knew each other and they were all in a group chat.
He looked at Gold, a bit skeptical, but the other just looked at him, like “go on, do it”. So that’s what he did.
He went through WhatsApp and looked at all the group chats he had.
“Which one is it ?”
“We love wooper.”
Silver looked up at him, then shrugged and clicked on the group chat. The wallpaper of the group was the default one, and he saw that the last message was the picture of a white and red colored Zorua looking, he didn’t know what the little thing was looking at, probably nothing with the caption “Ai lost his brain again :(“.
He started typing a message when he stopped.
“What nickname do you usually use for them ?”
Gold raised his head again and stretched.
“I just call them babes”
“Which emoji do I use ?”
“Huuuuhh…”
Gold rarely texts someone without putting any emoticons besides it, Silver doubted that he would be any different with his partners.
Gold stopped to think, arms and head on the back of his chair, back arching in a weird angle.
“Go to the folded paper looking thing next to where you type the text, go down a bit and click on a crying zorua.”
Is all he said, without moving. Not that he looked like he wanted to of course.
So Silver did what he was asked and typed ‘Babes I’m sorry ! I won’t be able to make it..’
Silver then put down the phone on the desk.
“Anything else ?”
Gold took a normal posture again and looked at the red haired with hopeful eyes.
“Really ..?”
“No.”
“Wh-“ The ebony haired looked like he got insulted. “How evil !”
The red haired shrugged and was about to leave when he saw the phone light up, already 5 unread messages.
What are his partners even doing ..?
“Have they already answered? Can you read it for me please ?” Silver was tempted to just say no and leave, but looking at Gold who did his best impression of a kicked Growlithe did push him to pick up the phone and read the messages.
“Alright, so Weife is asking if they can instead come over and Wify said they’d buy some takeout. Weife also said that U- what the fuck is that name ?” He looked closely to the phone trying to make sense of the name. “Usagi wants to see Fluffy ?”
Gold lit up at that.
“Oh Usagi !” He corrected. Okay so the Gi of Usagi was like the Gi in geek. Got it.
“Usagi is Snow’s Lopunny !”
Silver heard of that name before. He knows it, but where do he..
“Wait, Snow ? As in Kanto’s new elite four member ?”
The look the ebony haired gave him with his remaining eye was like the face a Fuecoco would give. Looking at his soul.
“Silv. You ARE aware that’s I’m dating both Snow AND Red right ?”
Oh.
Silver fucked up.
“Silv, do you even WATCH Tv ? Or have you been even outside ??”
“I DON’T have a TV Gold.”
“You should, it’s a great distraction for Pokemons when you need for some time alone. Like, oh I don’t know, taking a shower ?”
Silver scoffed at the idea.
“I don’t remember the last time I was able to get a bath alone without Weavile trying to get in.” The remark did managed to get Gold laughing.
“So ? What answer should I give them ?”
Good once again giggled at that.
“After that much time passed without answer ? They should be here in 25 minutes.” Silver almost missed the fond look in Gold’s eye. There was something soft, and warm.
“You still have work to do.”
“Oh don’t remind me..”
Silver watched as Gold’s Sylveon entered the room, probably sensing his trainer’s distress, walking over and resting his head on his trainer’s lap.
“Yes Tyrin, you’re a good baby.” Gold cooed as he pet the top of the eeveelution’s head. And that was apparently what he needed to get going with his paperwork.
Gold has always been very soft, gentle and kind. He has his ups and downs, definitely, he’s impulsive and easily excited, gets himself into troubles way too often, even brining others down with him at times, and very impatient, and Silver could still see that when Gold steals quick look over the clock.
“You really do like them huh..” Silver couldn’t help but state.
Good softly smiled, there was a shine in his golden eye as his eye crinkled.
“I really do. I love them both so much.” It was genuine. “They’re both amazing, I couldn’t dream of being with anybody else that isn’t the two of them.” This was also a statement.
Silver smiled at that secretly, happy that his stupid rival found people he was happy with.
“Hope you don’t annoy them too much.”
“Oh come in Silv ! Okay they wouldn’t tell me, but their Pokemons would, and trust me you don’t want to deal with neither a Pikachu no matter how small it is, or a giant death like Zoroark !” He laughed, although it was the complete truth. Red’s Pikachu and Snow’s Zoroark were terrifying, especially the latter.
“Hope it works out for the three of you. But I’m leaving, don’t want to fourth wheel you.”
“I mean, I could talk to them if they’d be okay with you joining-“ Gold had to stop his sentence there, the glare Silver sent him was quite intense, and with the way he was holding his keys Gold was sure he had to be ready to catch it in case Silver really did throw it at him.
“Not interested.”
“That’s fine, your loss is my win.”
“You’re already together Gold.”
“I know, and I love them.”
