Tempershipping

Kokoa and Takuya stayed together, alone, in a hotel room, waiting for Akako and Ichigo to return from their separate events. It was early in the morning and Kokoa walked over to the calendar wearily. She ripped off the month of November, revealing December.

"It's the first of December," noted Kokoa aloud.

Takuya shrugged. "So what?"

Kokoa sighed. "It hasn't snowed yet. I thought winter was all about snowy events. I wanted to go snowboarding."

Takuya thought for a second. "There are places that use fake snow if you want to go snowboarding."

Kokoa sighed sadly. "It's not the same. I want to feel the cold and have Jack Frost nip at your nose or whatever. Winter is my favorite month for a reason, so let it snow dammit!"

Takuya rubbed his temples and sipped his coffee. "All your screaming is giving me a headache."

"Whatever. The universe is cheating me out of my favorite season!"

Takuya grabbed Kokoa by the wrist. "There are lots of temples and stuff open this time of year, right? Why don't we go pray for snow."

Kokoa shrugged. "I guess it's better than whining."

Takuya nodded. "Now let's go before it's crowded. I don't like crowded places."

Kokoa nodded in agreement. "I just want to plow through everyone."

Kokoa threw on her jacket and scarf, then followed Takuya outside. It was very cold out, but for some reason, it just wouldn't snow. It irritated Kokoa to no end.

Takuya snapped his fingers in her ear, getting her attention. "Are you going to brood all day? Let's hurry to the temple."

Kokoa walked and talked. "You're awfully talkative today."

He just shrugged. "I guess there's more to talk about than usual."

Kokoa grunted. "There's nothing special about today at all. Not unless it snows."

Takuya grabbed some cotton candy from a nearby street vendor and shoved it in Kokoa's mouth. "Enough complaining. It isn't like you to complain."

Takuya paid the vendor for the cotton candy and pushed Kokoa along. Kokoa sighed and bit into the cotton candy, the sugar melting in her mouth.

"Who sells cotton candy in winter?' she asked after a while.

Takuya shrugged again. "That guy I guess."

Kokoa smiled, finishing her cotton candy. "Look! There's a temple!"

She pointed to a building not too far away. It's steps were stone and the temple was made of what appeared to be wood. Kokoa grabbed Takuya pulling him forward.

"Come on, slow poke! It's going to snow for sure! Head my command, Arceus!"

Kokoa ran up the stairs, practically dragging poor Takuya behind her. She smiled when they arrived at the top.

She walked over to a shrine and got on her knees. Takuya did the same. There were instructions in the form of a poem carved on a statue of Arceus.

Get on your knees and close your eyes.

Think of one of your desires.

What is it you wish for the most?

Ask for it from Arceus, your kind host.

If your wish does not come true.

Then you aren't wishing hard enough, this is true.

"Weird poem," laughed Kokoa. "But the instruction seem clear enough. Just close my eyes and pray."

Kokoa closed her eyes. 'I wish for snow. I'd like a beautiful, pure white winter.'

Takuya thought for a second. He had come here so Kokoa could pray, but what was it that he would pray for? He thought of something.

He closed his eyes and put his hands together. This was one thing he wanted more than anything else.

Kokoa and Takuya opened their eyes at the same time. Both of their eyes widened. Kokoa smiled happily.

"It's snowing! Haha! I have master control over Arceus!"

Takuya rolled his eyes as Kokoa danced through the falling snow. The white flakes that fell in her hair made her look beautiful. Takuya didn't realize he'd been staring until Kokoa looked over at him, giving him a weird look.

He sighed and walked over to Kokoa. 'Let's head back hom-"

Takuya tripped on a large rock, falling onto Kokoa. "Oi! What are you doing?!"

Takuya struggled to get back up. "Sorry. It was an accident."

Kokoa brushed herself off, standing up. "Oh. Hey, Takuya? What was it that you wished for?"

He smiled deviously. "I think I'll keep that a secret. I'm sure you'll find out soon enough."

Kokoa sighed and shrugged. "Alright. Let's head back to the hotel then. Ichigo and Akako should be waiting for us."

Takuya watched as Kokoa walked ahead, listening to her clacking footsteps. Takuya smiled slightly once he thought she was distanced enough.

"I wished for a slow, gradual love to form between us..."
