I Forgot, Leaf
I'm SO sorry people. But, I haven't gotten inspiration (Well, I do, but it's hard to tell the story. It's just random daydreams.) I got this, because I sorta wanted my crush to do this on my birthday… oh whatever. He didn't. T^T That's how I got this idea. I don't own anything. Enjoy! :D
(Leaf POV)
I pulled my sweater over my head. He hadn't said "Happy Birthday," or even a single "Hi," yet. This is the last period. Maybe he forgot. Oh whatever.
RING.
I groaned. School's out, but it's freezing out there! When I walked out, I tried to walk slowly to S7, his last class, but he didn't come out when I passed. I would've waited, but that would be weird, and Mom would kill me if I took so long.
A few other people said happy birthday when I walked to my locker, but I wouldn't be as happy, I guess. After I finished going through my locker, there's still no sign of him, so I headed towards the catwalk.
(Gary POV)
I pushed out of S7; sort of hoping Leaf would be there, like yesterday. But no, she must've left. As I walked to the locker rooms to change for a basketball game (We are so gonna win.), Ash ran up to me.
"Did you say it?" he asked.
"Say what?"
"Happy birthday!"
"To… SHOOT!" I totally forgot it's her birthday! Thank goodness Ash reminded me. (He has the same birthday as her.) After knowing her for all those years and having a major crush on her, I forgot something as huge as her birthday!
"Thanks Ash!"
I turned around and ran. I have no clue where to find her, but she should be at her locker, right? Halfway through the quad, I spotted Misty.
"Yo, Misty!"
"Hey, Gary."
"Do you know where Leaf is?"
"Uh, I don't know if you'll catch her, but she's headed towards the catwalk." I panicked.
"Thanks, Mist."
"Uh, sure, no problem."
I raced towards the catwalk.
(Leaf POV)
I glanced back, hoping to see him, but there's nothing. As I waited for the light to change to green, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I whirled around. Gary stood there, panting and smiling sheepishly at me.
"Sorry Leaf." I looked at him quizzically. "Happy birthday."
My mouth formed an 'O', but nothing came out. When I recovered from shock, I smiled warmly at him.
"Thanks."
"Sorry I didn't get you anything. I sorta forgot."
"It's okay. You saying happy birthday is all I needed. Besides, I didn't get anything for your birthday." He looked down.
"See? That's the problem. You didn't forget my birthday, but I forgot yours." I held back a giggle. He's so cute when he's modest. He's usually so loud and confident, seeing him like this, it's so cute!
"Aw!" I joked. "The Gary I know isn't that nice, is he?" For a second, he was stunned, but then he grinned.
"That's right! But happy birthday, Leaf."
"Thanks."
See? That's how I sort of imagined it. It was originally gong to be Pokeshipping, but then OldRivalShipping seemed to fit more, so I when with this. I hopw you guys like it, and please REVIEW!
