#12 of Cassidy's Journey
"I don't feel the way I thought I would." Cassidy had won a lengthy, tiresome battle against the Elite Four and stood outside the League's massive dome structure.
'But... isn't it what you've always wanted?' Fenny stood behind her.
Everything sounded like an echo and appeared distorted to match.
"Mh, but it's over." Cassidy felt a paw on her shoulder.
'You have to feel happy, even if just a little, right?'
She shut her eyes, and when she opened them, pitch black consumed her. Cassidy was in a dark room, lying against a warm embrace. She closed her eyes again from how deeply it calmed her but opened them upon hearing a feminine voice. It sank her heart.
"Vous avez été constamment stressée, Cassidy. Pourquoi (You're under constant stress, Cassidy. What for)?"
Her eyes shot open and widened. Her breathing quickened. She was frozen stiff.
"Ne poussez pas vous-même trop dur, d’accord? Les gymnases sont là pour rester (Don't push yourself so hard, okay? The gyms are here to stay)."
Cassidy felt a hand run through her hair, and she quivered against its touch. Tears that refused to form begged for release under her eyes.
Cassidy's eyes again shot open; she sat up in bed. Her breathing was frantic, and it seemed to wake Fenny as he stared from where he was lying.
'Cass?' He rubbed his eyes.
"J-Just a dream." She slowed her breathing, but the tightness in her chest made inhaling difficult.
'You're crying…' He eyed her face from light seeping through the window as the sun rose. He sat up.
"I– no, I'm not." Cassidy wiped her eyes with the back of her hand to find that they were damp.
She got up and paced to the restroom, closing its door behind her and blanking out while staring at herself in the mirror. She took a few deep, shuddery breaths while leaning against the counter, fighting the urge to break down and bawl her eyes out.
She gripping the counter's edge hard enough for her fingers to quiver, then winced while looking away.
"Fuck." Cassidy needed another walk. It felt as if her mind was screaming. She'd head farther this time— much farther. She turned and opened the door. She froze, seeing Fenny standing before her.
'I was worried...'
Cassidy slipped past him and went back to her room to throw on a jacket, boots, and her Pokétch. She brought up her wrist and saw 6:20 a.m. on her screen.
'Can I go?' Fenny watched from her doorway.
She zipped up her jacket. "Keep up."
He followed her outside into the chilly environment under a waking sky.
Cassidy stuffed her hands into her jacket's pockets, leading north.
After thirty minutes of utter silence other than mild breezes and general ambiance, they entered Anistar. At such early hours, the city barely began to wake.
Cassidy glanced at shop owners opening small daily businesses, tall buildings and residential areas with rowed homes, and shrubbery lining the pavement. She kept her head down and avoided interaction with the occasional person passing by.
Fenny trailed behind while giving her space. His eyes were on her more than anything else.
Cassidy saw the destination roughly a mile ahead after ten more minutes: the Anistar Gym. It wasn't hard to spot as it was an exotic pink structure made up of what resembled jewels.
Before the gym was a spacious area to watch the ocean— a popular tourist attraction, so it was perfect to come during early hours when little to no people were present.
Soon, they approached the gym from the long stretch of pavement leading to it.
There were only a few people out, including a young adult couple standing by the railing while watching the waves and morning sky, and a man in a jacket and sweats walking with his furfrou, who stood tall.
Cassidy passed them along with a few others and stopped at the path's edge. The sun shone along the water's surface while rising over the horizon beyond grassy hills, the sky slowly gaining color.
Fenny stood idle at her side and gazed at the view while a gentle oceanside wind brushed and ruffled his fur aside.
He glanced as she pulled her hand from her pocket and held it out beside her while keeping her eyes ahead. He placed his paw in hers.
She gripped it. "Three more."
He looked at her the moment she spoke.
"Three more gyms."
After a minute, Cassidy turned to look at Anistar City's gym and released Fenny's paw. "Come." She began to walk in the direction they came.
'Are we going back?' He kept by her.
"Not for long."
Cassidy opened the door to her home; Fenny closed it behind her, proceeding to follow her until Garna stopped him.
'Is everything alright?' she asked while standing by the couch.
'She's going through something. I'm keeping her company.'
'You're a good companion. Go on, then.' Garna waved him off with a warm grin.
Cassidy's door was cracked, and Fenny had forgotten to knock before entering Cassidy's room in his eager fit to be with her.
"F-Fen!" She covered her exposed breasts with her arm. Cassidy had been changing her bra and shirt by her dresser.
'I… s-sorry…' His eyes dilated, and his body and tail were tense, and his tail stiff. 'I'll just…' Fenny untensed enough to take a few steps back.
"You don't have to go." She let her arm fall.
Fenny stopped in his tracks and started shifting his eyes to her breasts, so he looked away altogether.
"Come. Shut the door." Cassidy watched as he did. "It was my fault. I should have closed the door."
Fenny walked to her, keeping his eyes on her face.
"I want us comfortable with each other," she said while eyeing him back.
'I-I just– I didn't mean to–'
She pressed her index finger to his mouth for a moment. He didn't speak verbally but got the idea. "C’est bon... (It's okay…) Now, go ahead."
'Huh?'
"What you're thinking about... You haven't touched them yet," she encouraged, nodding down at her breasts.
Fenny then let his eyes fall onto them. Shortly after, he raised his forepaw and set it on the center of one. Upon touching it, Fenny gave a short exhale.
"Squeeze." Cassidy brought her hand and placed it on his furry cheek, rubbing it with her thumb.
Fenny glanced at her face but returned his gaze to what he held. He tenderly squeezed her breast, his ears perking as he heard Cassidy sigh while he did.
She moved her hand from his cheek and placed it on the back of his neck, then pushed his face toward her chest. "Use your mouth."
Fenny swallowed. He moved his face closer and stuck his tongue out, moving his forepaw and tracing it around the outermost area of her nipple.
"Ah-hm." Cassidy watched and leaned back against the wall while rubbing his neck, feeling his soft, wet appendage slick her skin.
Fenny took her nipple into his mouth, which he suckled on with closed eyes. He put his other forepaw on her other breast, fondling it and feeling an erection grow. Her tit felt warm and comfy in his hold.
"Oh," she inhaled and bit her lip. Cassidy held his neck tighter while he suckled, slightly arching her back. She broke a subtle grin, watching him work.
She moaned and shifted her hips, feeling and hearing a tight sucking sensation that made her shudder and chill over.
Fenny pressed his tongue to her nipple and licked at it, sucking harder while giving her other breast soft squeezes, pushing it upward. Fenny focused on Cassidy's breaths and faint moans. His arousal added vigor to his actions.
He breathed quickly and pushed his nose into her delicate mound, indenting its skin.
"F-Fen… Fhnny." Cassidy let out another moan and watched him pull off, which allowed her to see his sheath and partially his member. "I still want to take you to one more place before the day is over, so let's take care of that." She slid down and rested her knees on the carpet, her breasts nearly level with his erection. "Put it between."
Fenny bent his knees while spreading his legs, drew his sheath back, then pressed the underside of his shaft against her chest.
Cassidy brought her hands up and pushed her breasts together around it, biting her tongue after his exhalation. He felt hotter than any boy she'd experienced.
"Rh..." he murmured upon feeling her warm skin encompass his glans.
She looked at him, pushing her hands up and pressing into her breasts. "Thrust."
Fenny placed his forepaws on her shoulders and slowly thrust upward, sliding his shaft between her plush mounds. It stiffened against her smooth skin; his knot grew. 'Nh.' He opened his mouth, his gaze started to slack.
It felt odd standing over her as Fenny wasn't the dominant type, but he indulged in humping Cassidy's perfect tits. They were alluring to the point where he'd cum faster simply by gazing at them.
She kept her eyes on his face but glanced frequently at his cock moving between her breasts. She massaged him by rolling and pressing her tits. "Don't be afraid to go faster."
Cassidy found it adorable how he reacted to sexual pleasure. It was as if every time was his first. The sensations zoned him out, and he wore an expression that seemed surprised to feel them. "How does it feel?"
Like thrusting between pillows, but twice as delicate, warm, and dreamy. "Brn." Fenny tightened his grip on Cassidy's shoulders, thrusting faster.
'It's t-tight and smooth. Oh, it's s-so comfy.' He gasped, leaning in and closing his eyes a little. Pre seeped from his tip, and as Cassidy pressed her tits to his member more, Fenny felt his climax brew. He breathed through his mouth, stammering. 'Cass, ahm, I'm gh–'
"Mh, don't hold back. I want you all over my face," she said, exhaling every so often and shuddering against his growing heat that warmed her tits.
Slicks emitted from his pre with every pump, coating his smooth path in sticky cum.
'I-It feels amaz-zing. Oh,' Fenny groaned under his breath, the friction from his humping heating the environment. He squeezed Cassidy's shoulders as he thrust swiftly. Fenny closed his eye, his vision growing murky.
He didn't think they could make him feel so good. Her pussy was a revelation to him, and her breasts brought him a lot more pleasure than he expected. His legs trembled, and his knees buckled.
She felt his knot tap the underside of her tits, grinning subtly with each stifled huff and cute moan he made. "Mhs..." Cassidy sighed, keeping her breasts pushed against his twitching shaft to provide a tight, narrow opening.
'I'm– hmmgonna... A-Arceus-ss.' His breathing hitched. Fenny pulled her shoulders, pressing his hips to her chest and letting his tongue loll while humping rougher. "B-rxhnn..." His climax peaked; an intense orgasm plagued him, sending hot, mesmerizing pleasure in waves through his mind and cock that made him pump faster and huff in extremity.
Fenny gasped while thick semen spurted from his tip. He shut his eyes, his body swaying as he slowed his movement upon coming down. It almost felt wrong to mark her pretty face, but she did ask for it— literally.
Cassidy felt its warmth hit her cheeks, nose, and eye, forcing her to close it. She released her breasts seconds later and gazed up at Fenny with a light smirk while he timidly gazed back, his forepaws quivering against her shoulders. "C'est un bon braixen (That's a good braixen)."
They cleaned up in the restroom afterward, Cassidy more so. She fit a new bra on and slipped into a long-sleeved shirt in her room. "We'll continue later. I think that was a good tease."
He looked down while grinning to himself. 'Where are we going?' he asked as they headed out for a second time.
"You will see." Cassidy glanced back at him.
They walked Route 19's dirt trails with trees and grassy fields lining them, crossed its wooden bridge, and entered Snowbelle City's frigid environment in just over twenty minutes. Its terrain was submerged under several inches of snow; the cold sun beamed meaningless rays upon the city.
Cassidy should have dressed better, but she'd put on boots, and they were only passing through. She looked at snow-topped homes and shops littered throughout with people conducting business as usual.
This city's main sight was its abundant supply of pines sprinkled generously and grouped around it alongside its daunting snowy rocky mountain to the far north. It had its own community of pines spreading for miles at its base.
Cassidy shivered against piercing winds that whipped her face and numbed her to the core. She couldn't feel her pink nose, nor her hands. She made a beeline toward the city's exit past others.
They were walking the trails, Fenny just behind her.
Some sat beside it to rest. A father and son in jackets and scarves were crouched with a glaceon accompanying, sprawled in the snow while swaying its tail. A couple of large pouches were next to them.
"We have to walk through Route Twenty." Cassidy clenched her teeth and took a breath briefly visible as a mist in the air. She looked at his hind paws. "Paws numb yet?"
'Uh, yes, but it's okay.' He watched the snowy ground that crunched under his steps and left behind deep, detailed pawprints that either conjoined with or muddled Cassidy's bootprints. 'I've never walked through here.' Fenny looked around.
People rode on the backs of massive robust mamoswine on carved snowy trails. A couple sat atop one's back, heading to the market several miles from their home.
Another group of people walked beside a few mamoswine in an organized cargo trail that pulled supplies in crates on wooden platforms dragging behind them. They were attached by tough rope to their massive tusks, tasked with resupplying shops around the city.
"There are many places you have not really seen..." Cassidy replied as they neared Snowbelle City's exit.
The snow underneath soon faded to dirt as they neared the exit in the next fifteen minutes, and before them was the entrance to Winding Woods.
"This is it." Cassidy stood at a distance.
He stared into a dark hole leading to thick tree trunks and thicker layers of greenery, grabbing and holding his tail. 'That's where you want to take me?'
"Non." She glanced at him. "It's on the other side of these woods."
"We should be there soon," Cassidy said with a shiver, although the climate was preferable to Snowbelle's. Route 20 had a confusing amount of directions, twists, and turns one could take and get lost in.
They'd already walked into multiple dead ends and got lost within the shady, tree-filled forest multiple times.
'I'm just glad we haven't run into any wild pokémon yet.'
"The grass types must be scared of you." She sighed. "Sorry. I didn't think it would take this long." She raised her wrist to check the time. "After ten..." she mumbled.
Fenny looked at her and nearly tripped over a rock as he did. 'I don't mind.'
By the time they'd reached the forest's exit, it was almost noon.
"Sorry it took so long again; this is it." Cassidy saw a clearing of bright white light ahead after they turned a corner.
His tail raised. 'Really?' His eyes widened at the sight.
"Let's find out." She sped up and paced toward the exit of the dreaded woods that had held them hostage.
"Pokémon Village," Cassidy said upon exiting and could almost crack a grin at the view. She scanned countless vibrant yellow flowers soaked with golden sunbeams covering an expansive grassy field, completely still and silent without a breeze in sight. No pokémon either, surprisingly, but Cassidy didn't know how the area operated.
It was easy to forget the woods when such a priceless example of untouched nature sat before her eyes. She also relished the sunlight hitting her skin after being in a snowy environment and a cold forest back-to-back.
'Wow…' Fenny went to where the field of flowers began.
"I have heard of this place years ago but never had the urge to go after it." Cassidy crouched beside him.
'Um...' Fenny looked at her. 'These flowers remind me of you in a way.'
She eyed him with a subtle squint. "You are sure?"
'They're colorful, right?'
"Yes, but look at what I wear."
'I know, b-but your personality can be. I think you just keep who you really are to yourself and stay... uptight.' He looked up for a second. 'That's the word, right? Like keeping to yourself all the time or something.'
"Yeah."
'You can be sweet, adventurous, and you're always motivated. You rarely smile, but I like when you do...'
"I think you are sweeter, Fen. I think you're a lot sweeter." She checked her watch. "We have close to an hour, but we'll have to head back soon. The last place we want to be in the dark is the Winding Woods," she said after close to
'I agree. It's dark enough during the day... and it'll be colder.' He looked at her, then turned to embrace her waist. 'Thank you for bringing me.'
She tilted back on her feet against it but firmed herself and hugged him back with one arm. "Mhm."
Fortunately, the sun was still high by the time they trudged through and exited the forest. Cassidy remembered a few turns they'd taken within the route earlier, so they'd only gotten lost twice, which was irritating, but they managed.
"Would you want to train, maybe tomorrow?" Cassidy inquired while they headed back to Couriway.
'Okay…' Fenny replied.
She looked at him. "You still don't want to battle?"
'If there's one time I do want to, it's when you get to the League.'
"Fen, that isn't how it works. We have to train often for you to battle at that high a level. The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to get there in time."
'I know. That's kind of why I do want to train tomorrow.'
"Then we will."
