A/N Yep, it's all dialogue. That was just the best way I thought to do this one. It leaves room for interpretation of their actions. But for the record, he hugs her from behind.

Oh! And watch out for a One-Shot I'm publishing on the 4th. It's gonna have a bunch of pairings, and this is one of them.

Enjoy!

OoOoOoOoOoOoO

"C'mon, Chris; spar with me."

"Nah."

". . . Nah?"

"Nah."

"What do you mean 'nah?'?"

"You look like you need a hug."

"What?"

"I just think you should have a hug."

"Don't you dare."

"I'm a daring person."

"Chris!"

"C'mere!"

"No!"

"Aw, don't run away!"

"Back off, Rodriguez!"

"But I loooooooooove you!"

"Argh, get off me!"

"I can't. You're the best girlfriend ever!"

"I swear, I'm gonna kick you in-"

"You know you love me!"

"I hate you so much right now."

"I'd only believe that on opposite day."

"Will you get off me now?"

"Clarisse, you are making a scene."

"I'm making a scene?"

"Indeed."

"You're the one latched on to me like some sort of leech."

"Only because I love you!"

"Let go of me."

"Say that you love me."

". . . What?"

"Tell me that you love me."

"And then you'll let me go?"

"Hermes' honor."

"That isn't very reliable."

"Just say it."

"But there's so many people watching right now."

"That's your problem. I can hug you for eternity."

"You're dead as soon as you let go."

"You can kill me right after you say 'I love you.'"

*Mumble*

"I'm sorry, what was that?"

*Mumble Grumble*

"Could you say that one more time?"

"I love you!"

"Thank you very much."

". . ."

"Oh yeah! There you go, all better."

"You gonna run now?"

"Oh, definitely."

"Good."

"Love you too, Clarisse!"

"Come back here, Rodriguez!"

OoOoOoOoOoOoO

A/N Mwahaha, Chris is so dead! But I can just imagine Chris doing this kinda stuff to her all the time, especially if there's a lot of people around. Can't you?

And I'm like half done with the next one, so expect that in the upcoming week. It involves the one sentence at the beginning of . . . Chapter 18, I believe, of TLO where Clarisse gets frozen. Oh joy.

Don't forget to read my July 4th Extravaganza!

Peace, Love, and Pokémon-
