《Keeping The Balance》Chapter Thirty-Nine – The Number One Singer – Task World Three (12)

Hol woke up with a weight on his chest. He went to move but he quickly stopped when he felt a sharp pain coming from his back. It took him a while to understand how that happened and once he remembered the events from yesterday he got really guilty and embarrassed.
‘Fucking hell… Did I seriously do that to Emery? I wanted it to be special and yet I went all crazy on him… I really hope that his ass is okay since I kind of went a bit rough.’ Hol let out a small groan as he rubbed his face and went to sit up again but more carefully this time. Emery let noise when he did this and Hol rub at their back.
“Hey… Wake up. I got to use the toilet.” Hol really did have to use the toilet also he wanted to check out why his back was hurting him. Emery mumbled something before moving off of his chest. Hol kiss their forehead gently before heading to the bathroom attached to this bedroom.
When Hol got in the bathroom he first went to the bathroom then checked in the mirror to see why his back was hurting so much. When Hol saw the reason he was trying really hard to remember the detail of his first time with Emery since there were so many scratch marks on his back. Some of them were still bleeding…
‘Jesus… How rough was I with Emery? I really should get some medicine for them and maybe some for me as well…’ Hol touched one of the scratch marks and tried not to flinch in pain. He may need to take an easy day today and probably make it a day off for his employee…
“Hey, Starie. What happened to those two annoying pieces of shit? I don’t really remember too much from yesterday. I really want to fuck their shit up for messing with me. I was going to be a little nice but I am just going to be a cold-hearted asshole to them.” Hol walked back to the bedroom as he talked to Starie in his head. He was still feeling annoyed with what happened yesterday and he wanted to take this irritation out on them.

“Well, you see, host… Emery did something to them and now they are somewhere else. They aren’t in this country anymore and it seems like people are working to spread dirty water on both of their reputations.” When Starie told Hol this he had a confused look on his face and looked at the sleeping Emery. They had drool coming from their mouth and their hair was all over the place.
“You are joking, yes? How could Emery do something to them? Isn’t he from a normal background? Are you sure they didn’t piss off someone else who is friends with Emery?” Hol went to lay in the bed with Emery and put them closer to him. He was rubbing their back but he was looking at them with a rather hard stare.
“Don’t worry host! Your cute system will figure out about this and give you all the information right away! Just give me a few minutes… or hours…” Hol managed to catch the mumble that Starie made and couldn’t help but chuckle at that. Hol went back to focusing on Emery and he couldn’t help but wonder if there was more to them.
‘Hmm… Maybe some information wasn’t told to me by mistake. I guess something like this can happen sometimes so I shouldn’t be bothered about it. It does make me a bit happy knowing my precious lover can protect himself if I am not there for him. Such a good lover~’ Hol could help but nuzzle his nose into Emery's hair with a huge smile on his face. He really didn’t mind the fact there was some stuff he didn’t know about his lover. It is always nice finding out new stuff about someone you love…
“I really love you… Even though you don’t remember me and may never remember me, I can’t help but feel so lucky that I found someone like you. I hope that we can continue to fall in love with each other no matter what world I end up in next… I just can’t give up this love.” Hol whispers that to himself as he kisses Emery again on their face. He didn’t know why his lover could follow him into different worlds but one day he may find the answer. He was just happy being able to hold and kiss them. That is the most important thing to him after all.

‘...We will always be together. Nothing will break us apart again, I promise. Just wait a bit longer until I am better… We will be a family again, I swear on my life and love for you.’ Emery holds onto Hol with a tight grip and slowly hid his face into their hip. Many emotions were going through his head but they slowly ended up disappearing until finally… He no longer remembers what he was thinking about.
It was like he was in a weird state of being awake and being asleep. In the end, he lost to the sleepy feeling and once again fell asleep. His heart felt nice and painful at the same time. It was a weird feeling that Emery couldn’t understand. But he knew he just wanted to be with Rafael as long as he could. That was the most important thing to him. Nothing matters to him at all…
Just a bit more until everything is okay again... Hol just has to keep going through these worlds until he is finally able to wake up from this long dream of his. He doesn't like putting Starie through this but it has to be done. It will be okay soon. This only happened because of him after all... Only if he was smarter and was able to protect his precious lover and his sweet child.

Touch
Touch is a story about a boy named James, and his friends: a group of young, superpowered people brought together by trauma; all trying, in their own ways, to come to terms with what that trauma means to them and who they want to be in response to it. This is a learning process, and mistakes are made, but they grow, learn, and adapt to these difficulties in ways that some might say only young people can. While it may look it at first, this is not intended as a sad story, merely an honest one. I wanted to make the characters human, and unfortunately, that means that difficulties hit them in very real ways through the story, but then again, they have some equally human moments of warmth between one another as they grow. Triggers: Explores the aftereffects and recovery process of sexual abuse, and some other forms of physical abuse. I like to think I avoided making it edgy, but you deserve to be informed. Some readers have told me that it can feel a bit too real at times. A bit too honest. If you like what you read, feel free to comment or review. I like the feedback. Or you can vote for Touch on TopWebFiction. Touch also now has both a Discord and a Patreon! Updates weekly.

Note: I combine the core games, side games, manga, anime, TCG, and every other media to make the most realistic and complete image of the Pokemon world I can, which is my main goal, and might be overwhelming to some people.

Rhea may be the main protagonist of our story, but to fully understand this world, we will be diving into various other PoV along the way, but never straying too far from our main three girls!
