You enjoyed staring up at the stars when sleep failed to embrace you. You felt the soft, sleeping breaths of your Pokemon who was curled up right next to you. Looking to your left, you saw N sleeping next to you inside his own sleeping bag. You were amazed by how easily he could fall into the depths of sleep, but after all of his hard work in trying to save Pokemon, he did deserve the peace that sleep provided.

You turned your gaze back to the beautiful night sky and thought about the past few months. It hadn't been long since you started traveling with N, but each day with him got better and better. You enjoyed his company just as much as the company of your Pokemon; he was always able to put you at ease. Your feelings for him were probably more than they should be, but it wasn't like his feelings reciprocated your own. A sigh of disappointment escaped your mouth when you realized that heartbreaking truth.

"(Y/N)?" a soft voice asked. You turned your head to see N facing you with a smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you," you said sincerely. He looked so peaceful when he was asleep, it was the peace he so rarely got.

"It's fine. But why are you awake this late?" he asked, turning over to his side to see you better.

"I just couldn't fall asleep," you replied, redirecting your gaze up to the night sky.

"Does this happen often?"

You shrugged in reply. "I suppose so, but I don't mind it. It just allows me to look the beautiful stars even longer."

N glanced up and smiled. "They are beautiful, but I've seen something even more beautiful than that," he said softly, moving his gaze towards you before quickly averting them away. "Anyway, why didn't you ever wake me up? You shouldn't have to be up all night by yourself."

You quickly shook your head. "No, you deserve the sleep more than I do. Besides, why should the both of us go without sleep?"

He sighed but nodded to your response. "I'm awake now so I'll stay up with you."

You didn't argue, but you still felt bad he was depriving himself of sleep because of you. The two of you stared up at the sky for almost an hour, but it only felt like a couple of minutes. Both you and N wanted to talk more but neither of you knew what to say. You both settled for just have each other's company which was more than enough for you. You honestly didn't know what you'd do without N.

Ever since he saved your Pokemon from being taken away by Team Plasma a few months back, you never left his side. His bravery and love for Pokemon are what caused you to fall for him in the first place. Little did you know, it was also your deep love for Pokemon that caused him to fall for you more and more each passing day the two of you were together.

A strong gust of wind blew the forest causing you to shiver from the cold that even the warmth of your sleeping bag couldn't protect you from.

"Are you cold?" N asked, obviously concerned for you. You nodded, afraid your teeth would chatter if you dared to open your mouth. N turned onto his side and wrapped his arm around your body, enveloping you into his warm body. You subconsciously moved closer to him, glad to have his warmth surrounding you. "Is that better?"

"Much better. Thank you," you said softly, suddenly so much more tired than you were before. A loud yawn escaped your mouth which caused N to let out a soft chuckle.

"I think you should try sleeping," he told you. You nodded in response, too tired to reply back

N refused to close his eyes until sleep finally embraced you. He smiled at the sight of your peaceful expression, glad that you were finally able to fall asleep. He leaned over and brushed your (H/L), (H/C) away from your face. Hesitantly, he placed a soft kiss on your cheek; something he's been wanting to do for so long, but never had the nerve to do.

"Sweet dreams, (Y/N)."
