Written for a dare by Flame Mistress on SPPf.
Quick trivia: The title refers to how Cheren likes battles and is more fiery in that way, and Bianca is sweet and reminds of of Lemon Fancies. XD
I have been waiting for the day I would hear the news of their get-together since the day I realised they were so obviously perfect for each other.
I'm not really one to play matchmaker, but for my two best friends who are so very, very clearly in love, exceptions had to be made. Even though we went our separate ways when we got our first Pokémon, my efforts to get my dear friends Cheren and Bianca together would not end.
Life has a funny way of doing its own things with destined people like them.
So the other day, I got a call on my X-Transceiver from none other than Bianca, who is squealing and seems very much pleased. She's far too excited to actually physically tell me why she's so excited, so I had to dump all plans of getting my sixth gym badge to go and find her so she can tell me.
Though naturally when she does tell me, a very loud and fast blurting out of "Cheren said he liked me!" and then something along the lines of a date which I couldn't hear because I started squealing and jumping as well.
I mean, clearly this was partly my doing. It was me who had shoved them in a closet together on their own for twelve minutes; it was me who got them both to deal with Team Plasma on their own while I went off to catch a Minccino.
I'm such a genius.
So for the days after, I follow them – not stalk, I'm just observing to make sure nothing goes wrong! – on their date. And it is adorable. I never knew Cheren could be the romantic type.
He pays, he orders for her, he offers her his jacket when she's cold. It's like something out of a romance novel.
I finally have to turn away and walk off, giggling to myself, when night falls over them and they kiss under the stars.
