Black tie event..
The woman was eye catching, that much was undeniable. She was obviously a pokehuman like her...a shiny by the looks of her... her style of dressing was interesting, not one she was used to seeing really...and then there was her height, she was so tall!. She realized she was so big because she was one of those mega's she'd been hearing about.
Helping the woman she learned she owned an art gallery and was actually trying to replace a set of instruments stolen from them, that belonged to a band who was to have been performing at an open house sort of thing for the gallery. The main reason she was looking to replace them was because they'd been stolen from the gallery its self. While priceless art had been left untouched the instruments had been taken away with.
The woman was sincere, and truly troubled by the theft. After close to an hour of helping her pick things out based on photos provided a sale was made and arrangements made to have them delivered a few hours from then.
As she was preparing to leave the woman who gave her name as Alchemy, invited Phee to the event that evening...and she found herself accepting...then asking about the dress code. Hearing it was formal caused her to momentarily panic, but she realized she could afford to get proper clothes for the night, and said she'd be there.
Once she'd left, Phee wondered what she'd gotten herself into. A black tie affair? Her!?

Dress shopping...?(Phee has to get all fancy!)Once the delivery to the art gallery was on its way, Phee left to go home and look through her clothes though she was almost certain she had nothing that would work for such a prestigious event. Sure enough a complete search of her closet pulled up more of the usual. The mess of punk attire was left in a heap on the floor as she went back into town again. There were several choices of where she could go. The first chased her out, and she was reminded of that movie she'd seen awhile back... Pretty Woman... it had been a nice movie but boy she knew now how it felt to be treated like trash! Finally, she found something in the second store that was more accepting of her being there and when she explained what she was looking for got shown several dresses that she tried on. Finally she found one, it was long sleeved, and seemed perfect for an art gallery. With shoes and accessories and a bag of things to do her hair with in hand as well she looked at the clock, time was already running low... still she had enough time to stop at the music store and dip into the store room, changing into everything, her normal attire left behind. Her usually spiky hair was styled carefully for the evening, though in her haste of trying to change out her jewelery for more appropriate items she found herself dropping the spiral shell she'd turned into an earring and felt a sharp pang go through her. That had been a gift from her first ever friend Niall... and now... it was gone. Cleaning it up she reluctantly threw it out, it shattered beyond repair, and put on dangling earrings, and a necklace that matched pretty well. Looking at the time, she grabbed the clutch she'd bought that matched the dress and threw her keys and such in before she was locking back up and hurrying across town, trying her best not to trip on the heels she was wearing, and very much not used to being in. Nearing the front of the art gallery she drew a deep breath and stepped inside then, hoping she wouldn't make a fool of herself.

The party
Stepping inside Phee was glad to see while not dressed completely appropriately (the other women seemed to have much more formal attire!), she also didn't stand out too terribly. No, she saw a few others wearing slightly off kilter clothing like her own and she felt a little more comfortable seeing this. That was a help for her really, this was a new (and slightly worrisome) situation after all.
Wandering through the gallery slowly, she felt someone come to a stop behind her, and turned to see the tall Mega Houndooom woman standing just behind her, a warm smile on her face. "You made it, I'm so glad you did." she looked Phee over with an appreciative smile. "You look wonderful, I love what you chose for the evening. Seem's rather fitting given where you work, and how you were dressed there. A more high class punk. It's delightful!" it was!
"Come, let me show you around." a hand rested on Phee's lower back as she was gently propelled forward and shown around, introduced to several people as 'my special guest tonight, Phee' and so on. In all it was an amazing evening, and seeing the band on stage Phee was shocked to see it was a punk band playing for the crowd! She lifted her eyes to Alchemy, who merely grinned down at her. "I am a woman of many surprises. One of which is music is art, and I feature a different type of music each time I have an opening." "That's amazing. Most people don't understand, or accept that fact." "I am not like most people, something I hope you come to learn my dear Phee."
She found herself relaxing completely as she realized Alchemy was not a prissy woman like she had feared. Indeed she found her enjoying the music, singing along...and Phee watched her with amazement, a warm smile on her face. She'd never met another woman quite like her.
When the evening came to an end, it was with a feeling of reluctance that she found herself saying her goodbyes to Alchemy. The change of her thoughts was not lost on her. She was reluctant to come here, now she didn't want to go. The gallery was empty save for them, she'd stayed to help with a little clean up, and now they were standing outside as the doors were locked. It was close to two am, and while she was tired, she was surprisingly energetic.
"Thank you for inviting me tonight Alchemy, this was a lot of fun." "I must thank you for coming tonight, it made my evening that much more enjoyable having you at my side." she smiled down at the Manaphy and reached out a fingertip caressing blue skin, before she leaned down and was pressing a light kiss to that same cheek.
"Goodnight Phee my dear."
Phee gave some half articulated response before she was heading back to her store, to change out of her clothes before going home. All the while she swore her cheek was on fire from that touch and that kiss.

Meet my girlfriend
In the weeks after the party Alchemy came into her shop several times a week, to invite her to a movie, to dinner, to another gallery showing, for a walk along the beach...and Phee accepted every time. The woman fascinated the nineteen year old more than she could wrap her mind around. She couldn't get enough of her time with Alchemy, who she learned over time was about twenty six, who'd owned the gallery a few months by this point, etc.
Phee for her part would go to the gallery to wander around when she learned of new installations...and it really felt like the two of them were spending every spare moment they could together. Of course both had their jobs, and Phee had Isaac to spend time with (like she would write off her best friend just because she'd met a girl? Oh no. They gossiped and enjoyed analyzing things Alchemy said and did!), and of course there was Cecily, the celebi girl who was like a younger sister to her.
After a few months of this over dessert Alchemy finally asked Phee to be her girlfriend, saying that she'd never been happier before, and Phee readily accepted, feeling the same way. The Houndoom woman made her feel alive in ways she hadn't before. As they left to walk home they were stopped by a friend of Alchemy's who when introducing Phee went "Meet my girlfriend Phee." that one word, it made her grin to the point that she thought her face would crack.
Their first kiss came as she was walked home by Alchemy, and she found herself winding her arms around the woman and pressing into the kiss with a content sigh. This felt so completely right.
