” …You are pretty cute you know."
It was his turn to blush, and blush he did. A deep red hue covered his cheeks, and he could feel his face grow hot. It wasn’t every day that someone paid him a compliment. In actuality he had been joking when he teased her for staring. Ren had not expected her to say anything of this caliber. The trainer was unsure of what to say, and as a result ended up stumbling over his words. “I… uh.. c-cute you say.” He clamped his mouth shut. Come on Ren say something, you’re losing your grip. A lump formed in his throat and he swallowed hard. “Well.. you aren’t ugly.”
He could have died. This girl shows up, and he suddenly doesn’t know how to use proper English. What was this black magic? Ren took a moment to calm himself, pointedly looking in any other direction instead forward. He was thankful for the change of subject. She claimed that they were even since he had went out of his way to help her escape such a sticky situation. Ren would have argued, but it was clear that her mind was made up. He never would have admitted this out loud, but he was glad. Money was a bit tight since he was sending most of his battle winnings back home to his mother.
"So is your pidgeotto the only pokemon you brought with you?"
He had been waiting for this moment since they had left the pokemart. Ren shook his head, as he pulled the pokeball from his belt. Worldlessly, he threw it.

From behind Ren he eyed Skye with a wary look in his eyes. “He’s a bit skittish, so I wouldn’t advise touching him until he gets used to you.” The blonde commented quietly.
