Neoko: Here's another Pokemon Special fanfic. This one will be a multi chaptered story with more than one shipping! This has no connection to my other Pokemon Special fanfic. It also won't be as long as my other works, but after this one is finished I may do a sequel. The shippings included in this fanfic are: onesided-Oldrivalshipping, onesided-Luckyshipping, and onesided-Specialshipping (may have some Feelingshipping if you squint!). And for once I'm exactly happy about the title of this story! Please enjoy!

Unrequited Love

It was a cloudless night above the Viridian Forest as the annual ball swept everyone off their feet. Many loving couples dance under the moonlight sky, as others happily mingle on the sidelines. However, only one person stood out of all the rest. A sixteen year old boy in a tuxedo with a red tie merely stood by the punch bowl. His eyes locked directly to the floor and his mind shrouded of thoughts of regret.

"What was I thinking?" Red sighed to himself. "Coming here after what happened…"

Red's mind began to wonder into another place in time. To think such a thing would happen a mere two weeks before the ball. To tell the truth, Red did know foresee what might happen, but he went for it anyway.

Flashback

"I-I like you!" Red nervously shouted, his face living up to his name. Leaves then began to rain from the sky as if triggered from the explosion of feeling that just took place. Red cautiously opens his eyes to face his companion.

In front of Red was a girl who looked the same age as him. Her long, brown hair whistling along with the wind and her blue eyes widen with shock. Her face slightly flushed, trying to absorb what just happened. Finally she spoke.

"I…" Blue began as her eyes settled. "I like you too Red…" Blue then cast her eyes aside as if ashamed of what she was about to say. "But… Not in that way."

Red's face darkened with pain, but settle into a melancholy smile. "I see…" Red finally replied. His voice filled with sorrow. He turned his face to the ground, wishing that he didn't even call Blue to this spot. Suddenly he heard footsteps coming closer to him. When he finally looked up, he sees the girl a mere few feet away from him.

"Come on Red!" Blue exclaimed, trying her hardest to cheer her friend up. "Don't look at me like that… What happened to the eleven year old blockhead I used to know?" Blue playfully winked.

Red couldn't help but to smile at his friend's well-meaning gestures. Besides, they were one of the reasons he fell for her in the first place. Thinking this he couldn't help but remember the time when they were fighting against Dexoys. Blue was the one who tried to cheer him up then too.

"Red…" Blue continued in a more serious tone. "I know like nine out of ten people say this to get out of this situation faster, but I need you to believe me that I really mean what I'm about to say." Red paused for a minutes before finally nodding. Blue then takes a deep breath, ready to tell Red the absolute truth. "It really isn't you Red, you've been my best friend for so long. It's just… It's just me… You see… I-!

Red watched his friend struggle with the words she was trying to get out of her mouth. After awhile Red decided to relive her.

"You like someone else… right?"

"Hey Red!"

Red snapped out of his blank trance as he stood face to face with another boy with a green tie wrapped around his neck. "It's not like you to stand all night during a party." Green had his usual look on his face, plain and seemingly emotionless, but he still cared if his rival and best friend wasn't feeling well.

Red stared blankly at his friends face until reacting. "I'm fine!" Red cried, waving one of his hands in front of his face. "I'm just…" Red took a glance behind him to see the punch bowl sitting on the table. He then proceeded to take a glass and pour some of the drink into the cup. "I just thirsty that's all!" Red then took a long sip. "Ah! That's more like it!"

Green's eyes narrowed, far from convinced of Red's poor excuse, but before he could point it out his eyes wandered to a pillar, not far from were he was. There he saw a petite girl with a yellow dress, watching cautiously, barely visible from the shadows. In the end, Green chose to leave the boy be and sighed. "Whatever… Just don't drink all the punch." With that being said Green turned and started to walk away.

"You're going?" Red asked, curious at his sudden change in attitude.

"I am the gym leader of Viridian." Green answered looking back at his friend. "It's my job to foresee any public events." Green then turned again and continued to walk away.

Red looked up as his spiky-haired friend mingled with the rest of the guest, still keeping his signature stoic face. Red once again began to remember the events that took place two weeks ago.

Flashback

"It's Green… isn't it?"

Blue's face turned even more red. She didn't think that Red of all people would realize whether she liked anyone, let alone know exactly who she liked. After getting over her initial shock she settle and a small grin appeared on her face.

"Yes…" Blue finally replied. "How did you know?"

"Y-you always seemed a little happier with him around." Red answered nervously, his eyes now focus on the ground. After a moment of silence Red slightly lifts his head up to face the girl. "W-what do you like about him?"

Blue, somewhat taken back, stood awkwardly thinking about the boy's question. "I-I don't know. It's just…. He's different from other boys I've ever met and well…"

Red slightly cringed at Blue's words, wanting to stop her from finishing her sentence. "It's okay Blue!" Red interrupted displaying a false cheerful expression. "I understand, you don't have to say it…" Red's words trialed off, once again looking down, as if in pain.

Blue walked up to him, putting one if her hands on his shoulder. "Are you okay Red?" After getting no response, Blue puts on an understanding smile. "It's gonna be okay, besides, the Red I know would just yell 'oh well!' and run straight into the future!"

After hearing her words, Red finally was able to crack a genuine smile. "Right…" He sighed out with his eyes closed. Blue, then pulled Red's face closer to her and gives him a peck on his cheek.

"Cheer up!" Blue than ran a short distance from Red before turning around. "There are other girls than me Red! Who knows, maybe there's someone who secretly desires you too!" With that being said Blue continued to run until she was completely gone.

Red was left alone with an awed expression on his face.

End Flashback

Now back to the present, still next to the punch bowl, Red stared vaguely into the sky. "Someone who secretly desires me?" He whispered under his breath. He then chuckled silently to himself. "Yeah right!" Red continued, "Who would desire me?"

"Umm, Red?"

Red turns around and sees a small blonde-pigtailed girl, she even seemed to be younger than himself. She was wearing a shining gold dress that barely covered her knees. "Oh, Yellow? What's up?"

The young girl's face dropped slightly to conceal the obvious blush plastered on her face. "Are you feeling okay? You've been standing here for awhile…"

Yellow has anyways been a good friend to Red. However, he thought she was a boy for a year, so after finding out about her true gender things got really awkward, but they still can talk friendly to each.

Red didn't want to cause the young girl such worry so he merely chuckled lightly. "No, I'm fine Yellow!" Red finally said, "I just wanted to have punch!" Red then repeated his same actions when he was alone with Green. After having his second glass of punch Red let out a huge sigh. "Aah! Who ever made this punch has great taste buds!"

Yellow's blush then increased as she watched Red get another glass. "Y-you like the punch?" She shy asked before Red could once again empty his glass.

Red stared blankly at the girl with his cup in hand. "Well yeah, I mean, it tastes great!" Yellow stayed silent with her eyes seemingly glued to the floor. "What's up?" Red asked after watching the girl's unusual behavior.

"Oh!" Yellow quickly reacted. "I-I'm fine! Honest!" After witnessing the girl's sudden outburst, the now concerned Red gazed at Yellow while taking a sip from his third glass. Yellow then began to fidget while Red finished the cup. "Umm… Red?"

Red lifted his head in respond of Yellow's almost silent call. "What is it?" Red watched while Yellow played with her thumbs, seemingly struggling over the words that were coming out of her mouth. Finally Yellow looked Red straight in the eye with her face clearly flushed.

"Would you like to dance!?" Yellow finally shouted out to the now taken back Red. Red stared at the girl until he flashed his usual smile.

"Sure Yellow." Red then extended his hand as Yellow lifted up hers. Finally their hands were intertwined as the two headed to the dance floor…

"Who knows, maybe there's someone who secretly desires you too!"

Neoko: There goes the first chapter! I hope I kept everyone in character! Especially Blue… Do you think she would reacted like that if Red really did confess to her? Anyway, that part took so long to write and I'm still not sure whether it was good or not. Anyway, can anyone guess what will happen next in this story!? Please review.
