“I can’t see anything.” He said, blinking his eyes open. It took a second before panic set in, and he was reaching for his Poke Belt when a hand grabbed his wrist.

“Shush.” The voice said, and Red relaxed fractionally.

“Lance?” He asked.

“Yes. You accidentally took the full brunt of a Flash attack from your opponent’s Weepinbell.” The Dragon Master sounded rather disgusted. “It will take your eyes a few days to recover, I’m afraid.”

“…Oh,” He nodded. “What am I going to do until then?”

“Rest and relax.” She promptly scooped him up, carrying him bridal-style despite his protests. “Don’t worry, Red. I’ll take care of things.”

Red nodded as exhaustion began to set in. Lance was right. He did need a break. “Will you do my paperwork too?” He asked hopefully.

“Perhaps…”

“Ah.” Red nuzzled Lance with a pleased smile, wrapping his arms around her neck, before Lance smirked and kissed him.

“Devious child…”

“Perhaps,” Red winked, or tried to. “But I’m sure I’ll make it worth your while!”

“I’ll hold you to that promise.” She murmured, and Red grinned.
