Chapter 25: 25: Misty Taking Bath
Upon returning to the Pokémon Center, Ryn discovered that Misty still wasn't anywhere to be seen.
The Pokémon Center was already crowded with trainers who had woken up for breakfast.
He muttered in confusion, "Isn't she being a bit too sleepy?"
Thinking this, Ryn decided to knock on Misty's door and wake up this sleepy little pig.
Plus, with so many people around, he'd have to wait in line to buy breakfast, so Ryn planned to wake up Misty first and then go eat breakfast.
Ryn went to the second floor, went for the door across from his own, which was Misty's door.
Standing in front of Misty's door, he knocked on it.
"Misty, Misty?!"
He called out twice but received no response from Misty.
This puzzled Ryn. "That shouldn't be possible. I knocked so hard and shouted so loudly. Even if she's sleeping soundly, she should have woken up by now. Could Misty be in danger?"
Thinking this, Ryn immediately went downstairs to find Nurse Joy and asked her for a key to the room.
Just as Ryn had left, a voice could be heard from inside the room.
"Wait a moment, I am taking a shower!"
Unfortunately, Ryn was already gone by the time Misty replied, so her words were in vain.
The reason for the delayed response was that Misty had just woken up. During their time in Viridian Forest, she had been so worried about Bug-type Pokémon that she hadn't had a good night's sleep in a while.
After arriving at the Pokémon Center in Pewter City, she finally managed to get a good night's sleep, so she slept in a little.
Ryn's voice from earlier was heard very low from the bathroom.
On the other hand, when Nurse Joy heard Ryn ask for the spare key to Misty's room, Nurse Joy didn't think much of it and handed the key to Ryn.
In Nurse Joy's eyes, Ryn and Misty were traveling together as a man and a woman, so he was most likely her friend.
After receiving the key from Nurse Joy, Ryn thanked her, "Thank you, Nurse Joy."
"No problem, no problem." Nurse Joy watched Ryn's departing figure and smiled, "What a polite young man."
With the key in hand, Ryn immediately returned to Misty's room and used the key to open the door.
Upon entering the room, Ryn did not see Misty's figure on the bed.
Instead, Misty's clothes were neatly folded on the bed.
At the top was Misty's blue underwear.
Seeing these undergarments, Ryn froze in place.
Just as Ryn was startled, the bathroom door opened from the side beside the door.
A white mist spread out from it, followed by Misty humming an unknown cheerful song while drying her orange hair with a towel.
This time, Ryn wasn't drawn to Misty's clothes on the bed, but was completely mesmerized by her naked body.
Having just taken a shower, her skin looked incredibly wet and soft, and her strong slim body with a hint of a six-pack was another plus.
Her slightly developed breasts were now fully exposed to Ryn's view, and looking further down, he could see her small entrance, which would only become full and elastic once Misty reached adulthood.
Most importantly, there was no hair above the entrance.
Meowscarada behind Ryn saw this and quietly closed the door.
Based on her three years of online experience, Ryn was probably about to be slapped by Misty.
Meowscarada couldn't interfere in their affairs, so closing the door was the last bit of dignity she could give Ryn.
Inside the room, Misty dried her hair slightly, then lifted her head. Upon opening her eyes, she saw Ryn.
Her first reaction was to wonder if she was hallucinating.
However, as she felt the intense gaze of his on her naked body, Misty realized that the Ryn in the room was indeed the real Ryn.
Misty's face flushed rapidly.
Misty trembled as she slowly raised her hand, pointing at Ryn. Her lips trembled, wanting to say something, but no words came out. "You…"
Ryn snapped out of his daze. Hearing the sound coming from Misty's mouth, he took a step forward and quickly covered her mouth with his hand.
This brought Ryn and Misty into direct physical contact.
Ryn's body and Misty's naked body pressed together.
Although Ryn was still wearing clothes, he could still feel the soft touch of her skin.
Additionally, since she had just finished bathing, her body still carried the scent of soap.
However, the most urgent matter was to stabilize Misty's emotions first. Ryn hurriedly said, "I will take responsibility. If you agree, Misty, just blink your eyes. If you don't agree, I will leave the room immediately."
As he spoke, Ryn's vision kept glancing at the two pink, delicate points on Misty's chest that drew his gaze.
Though he didn't know if this approach would work, Ryn had no choice but to take a gamble and make one last attempt.
If he did nothing, Misty might leave the team for good.
Taking a chance might still leave a sliver of hope.
Being held by a man made Misty feel flustered, especially since she was naked.
Because it was so sudden, Ryn's palm was now covering Misty's breast, and the soft, full breast felt exceptionally good to the touch.
Ryn noticed that his hand was gripping Misty's chest, but he didn't move it. He wanted to maintain the illusion that he had accidentally grabbed it out of panic.
If he squeezed them, Misty's feelings for him would go down to zero.
That wasn't what Ryn wanted, so he had to endure it for now.
Misty blushed but pointed at Ryn's hand covering her mouth, signaling him to let go.
Ryn could tell from Misty's expression that she wanted to talk properly.
After some thought, Ryn reluctantly moved his hand away from Misty's body, stood up, and turned around.
Seeing that Ryn left, Misty didn't say anything else and quickly put her clothes back on.
Hearing the sounds of her dressing behind him, Ryn felt a weird sensation in his heart.
