Today is 9/11. My heart goes out to all families who were emotionally or physically harmed ten years ago. :C
Hope you guys enjoy nonetheless!
Blue blinked.
"A double date?"
"Well, why not?" Yellow smiled. "You could catch up with Gold, I could catch up with Red...if you want."
Blue nodded.
"Sure, I'm fine with it. When? Where? And don't say the Cape, because Red's already taken me to that boring place twice."
Yellow giggled. "Gold took me there the other day. I was thinking Castelia."
Blue lost her train of thought for a moment and began daydreaming about how different it would have been if Gold took her to the Cape.
"So...?"
"Uh, yeah, sorry. I'm fine. I'm sure Red will be chill with it, too."
"He's always chill with things."
Blue caught on. The tone of her voice, the look in her eyes...it was crystal clear that Yellow liked Red more then Gold.
"We'll have to get plane tickets to go, then."
-x-
After a long flight, the plane finally landed.
It was midnight.
They were in Unova!
"This is so amazing! Maybe we can go shopping? Or...oh my gosh, it's so pretty here, I can't believe it!"
Blue stared at the scenery surrounding her.
Gold chuckled.
"You never do get tired, do you?"
Blue glanced at Gold. The urge to hold his hand burned. She stared at the people walking around her. Yellow and Red were engaged in some conversation, and everyone else seemed to be with their significant other.
I wonder if people think Gold and I look like a couple, too...
Blue smiled at the mere thought, hoping Gold didn't hear her heart pounding.
-x-
"Hey, Yellow, guess what?" Gold glanced over to where Yellow should have been. He froze.
"Where's Yellow, Blue?"
Blue looked around. Yellow wasn't anywhere, nor was Red.
"I think we were separated! I..."
Gold was lost in thought.
"Blue, is this what you want?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, are you happy with your life? With Red? Are you okay with everything?"
"...No."
Gold blinked, surprised with her answer.
"I mean...well..."
Blue stared at her feet, kicking nervously at the ground.
"I'm not either, Blue."
Blue looked at him, hope flashing in her eyes.
"Truth is, Blue...dear Arceus, why am I even saying this? I can't...not. And yeah, that's a double negative, but right now, who cares about grammar?"
Blue paused.
"You're stalling—"
"...Well, truth is, I...never liked Yellow."
Blue smiled a bit.
"I never liked Red."
Blue took a breath before continuing.
"Actually, I only dated him because I wanted to get over you. It didn't work. In fact, it made matters worse. I don't want to be with Red. I only wanna be with you."
Gold froze, at the time unable to communicate his mutual feelings.
All he could do was wrap his arms around her and hug her, and they shared an embrace for at least one hour, despite the rain that had begun crashing hard over them.
Nothing stopped them from staying together in that moment.
Nothing ever would.
