This is a Chili x Cabernet shipping fanfiction. IKR, WTH. I just thought of it, as I wanted to do some one-sided SommelierShipping (as, Wishfulshipping is love, I'm sorry), and suddenly Chili having feelings for Cabernet cropped up, and this love-triangle (except Dento doesn't love Chili. :I) popped up.

Chili's POV is being used here. I may use Cabernet's POV later… it depends on how this goes.

Chapter 1: An abrupt entrance.

"Where is he?" was her very first words directed at me, well, and Cress too, but her piercing urgent blue eyes gazed into my own crimson ones, as I felt my cheeks glow the same shade as my own two eyes. It was about our other brother, Cilan. I frowned; he always received all the rays of the spotlight, even if he's not there to bask it in. Initially, Cilan was the shy mousey one, which never said a word, and bam; suddenly he's the all sparkling, all dazzling, A-Class Connoisseur, with friends whom he ditches his brothers to slave at a Gym for him, so he can travel. It felt so rapid and shocking, like severe whiplash, and painful at that. At least I still had Cress, to help me. However lately, Cress has a new group of friends, all these Water-Gym leaders from other regions. He's too occupied to bother with me anymore. I know, I should just move on, but it's difficult for my nostalgic urges to deal with. I still remember all three of us, on a sunny day in June, nonchalantly playing a game of tennis, and chuckling, as we swung our rackets…

Oh! I always get sidetracked, somehow. Cress stared at the girl incredulously. Not that it was a surprise that a girl would enter in, and request Cilan's presence, but she never did it seeming like she would rip him limb-to-limb. I formed the most attractive apologetic smile I could manage. "Er, he's away travelling with some friends." I told her sympathetically, as Cress nodded nervously. The reaction was worse than discovering that if was actually an active volcano. "WHAT?" She screeched violently, and all of consumers, which happened to be all fangirls jumped in fright. Some even split their beverages over themselves. I took a hasty step back, so did Cress, and I stammered "U-Uh yeah." I've watched many videos of volcanoes erupt, as I find volcanoes rather interesting, and her facial expression slowly transforming was the best human re-inaction I have ever witnessed. As her fangs bore, I had a few impulses to sprint from the awful scene. Cress pushed both his arms back to his chest, as if he feared that she was going rip them off mercilessly. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S GONE, WHERE'D HE GO, WHEN IS HE COMING BAAACK?" She bellowed infuriated, her eyes flashing, burning with fire. Cress muttered in my ear, "Bring her out to the courtyard, and deal with her; our customers are terrified." I had one inclination to ask him why can't he simply do it, but I decided against it. "Um, Cabernet, is it?" I asked shakily. She instantly stopped yelling, and stared at me, bewildered. I suppose people didn't usually approach her when she was like this, and I could see their reasoning. "Can we eh… bring this outside? I'll explain everything." I requested, still scared. She scolded, but nodded, and proceeded outside. As I followed her, I found myself liking her more and more, despite being afraid of her. She was tough, intimidating, independent and unique. What I especially liked about her was that she wasn't one of those dithery fangirls, that we have every day. She stood there, in the middle of our courtyard. "What?" She blurted impatiently. I took a deep breathed and informed her of all that happened since was last here. That Cilan had taken up his dreams of being a connoisseur seriously, that a boy named Ash Ketchum had arrived in, challenged of three of us, and he was travelling, so Cilan inspired by him, decided to travel along with him. She shot me a look filled with venom. "So… he just went? What about the rematch?" She demanded. I was nastily reminded of her visit, where she challenged Cilan, as she has an Oshawott. Spectating their match was like watching an insect go up against a rolled up newspaper. "I know!" She exclaimed, cutting that memory from my mind, "I'll challenge you!" Great. I try and calm her down, and now I have to battle, even though my Pokemon is weak to hers. I felt like punching Cilan in the face when he got back. I must be a gentleman, and thus, I agreed. As I passed the restaurant, I muttered to Cress, "Next time, you can calm down our customers and have to engage in a battle." He smirked evilly, as I proceeded towards the Gym Area. We couldn't simply perform our "ShowTime", as Cilan wasn't here, and it was only a rematch.

"What an honour it is to battle you." I told her sincerely.

"Shut up, pretty boy." She snapped back.

She flattened me, to be frank. However, as Cress sympathised, she did have the advantage over me, as Cilan had the advantage over her. I kindly but timidly approached her, after our match. It was my duty, after all, to distribute the trio badge to winning trainers. I displayed the shining Trio Badge, out to her, and stated the lines of the congratulations speech. "Here is the Trio Badge, as you have defeated me in battle, and now all Pokemon up to level-" I began, however, Cabernet wasn't bothered to act like she cared about things she didn't (another great quality of hers; I like realistic people) and cut me off curtly. "Tell me about Connoisseurs; I'm going to defeat him at his own strengths." Wow. This girl held intense grudges, but I liked where this was going. After I had seeped out every last ounce of my knowledge on Connoisseurs, I asked "So, would you like something to eat?" but there was no answer.

She had already left. Maybe being a triplet had something to do with it, still I had never felt such loneliness yet as I had then in that courtyard.

Later on, I was in awe that Cress wasn't intrigued by Cabernet's visit at all; in fact he remained indifferent towards the whole fiasco. "Just another angry costumer," He stated as I enquired in aghast tones why did it not sway him at all, "It's not that rare, brother." With a breezy stride, he left our conversation to that. Or so I thought, because when he reached the end of the corridor where the stairs stood, he muttered something that shocked me and created a lot of confusing questions in my head.

"I would believe that you have some newfound feelings for her, if I'm not mistaken, brother."

I stared at him incredulously, and yelled with a lot of stutters, "N-no! Pah, she's just some costumer, that's a-all! You didn't battle her, how would you know!"

Yet, my thoughts didn't back up my speech. On the contrary, they supported Cress's instead.

I'll be using Cabernet, instead of Burgundy, because I wrote this before BW019 was dubbed.

Yes, I'm Likeitornur on dA.
