Chapter 12: Wallace Cup in Castelia City (part 1)

The next day, the Contest happened. Logan H. won his fourth contest, this time against Kenny, a Coordinator who was from Sinnoh. One week later, they arrived in Castelia City, the second biggest city of Unova, the city of Grandeur. The group was marveled by the skyscrapers, the huge number of people who came from the whole world.

"What a city guys!" Jasmine said. "It's been since we have arrived in Unova that we aren't in a big city!"

Indeed, the group was living in Chicago, the third biggest city of the U.S.A. and they didn't feel like lost there. As usual, they were going to the Pokémon Center and while Nurse Joy healed the group's Pokémons, they noticed an advertisement on TV.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm Wallace, a Contest Master. This Friday, don't forget the beginning of the Wallace Cup, a special contest where every Coordinators and trainers can compete!" A man with a white cape and a white hat declared. Then, he showed a blue Ribbon. "This Ribbon counts towards any Grand Festival you are competing. The subscriptions are available in the arena and the Pokémon Center."

"This is the perfect opportunity to show to the world what we can do!" Garrett said. "Lindy, Logan and Delia, will you us the favor to be part of this competition?"

"Why not." Lindy and Delia both answered and nodded.

"I don't know." Logan W hesitated.

"Come on, dude!" Logan H. told. "If you don't, you will be the only one who won't compete and it could be boring."

The girls begged him with their looks.

"Fine!" Logan huffed.

Everybody hugged him.

"Since we will all compete, we have to train hard, especially me since I don't practice it." Lindy noticed.

"I can be your coach if you want." Logan H. suggested.

"All right. What about now?" Lindy asked.

"Let's go to the battleground in the backyard."

"Lindy, don't forget what we have to do after." Garrett stated.

But she didn't hear what Garrett said because she was walking with Logan H. and was too far to hear him.

"What did you foresee with her?" Delia asked.

"I will have to kill you if I tell you." Garrett warned. "I'm your best friend and soon or later, you will know." He turned to Logan. "Come on, I will show you how to be a good coordinator."

Logan nodded and went away to a park to train for the Contest. Jasmine and Delia did the same.

Three hours later, the group gathered in the Pokémon Center but right after, Lindy and Garrett left their friends. They went to a bike renting and rented two bikes and rode across the streets.

"In Nacrene City, you told me that you have a plan to get Jasmine and for me to get Logan H. So, what is it?" Lindy asked.

"Well, I really want to date Jasmine one day but I never figured out when will be the best moment to do." Garrett told. "But when I checked the Unova map, I knew that this city is tremendous and there are a lot of places for a perfect first date and maybe ask her to become my girlfriend. So, I found the best park of the city and the best area to make the perfect picnic because Jasmine loves it, then I will buy a teddy bear who will carry the message "will you go on a date with me?" which she will answer yes and when we finish our date, I will give her a silver bracelet with my name on it to ask her if she wants to be my girlfriend."

"If I summarize," Lindy said. "That's what you planned?"

"Isn't it great?!" Garrett shouted.

"You're crazy!" Lindy exclaimed. "I didn't know you love her that much. Any girl would be happy about that. And I think I will steal some of your ideas."

"Not all of them but you can take some because you're my best friend and I want the best for you and the others." Garrett asserted.

They rode to the mall and began their shopping. The first step was the jewelry.

"Excuse me, can I have a silver bracelet with the name "Garrett" on it, please?" Garrett asked.

"Of course." The jeweler said. "Is it for this beautiful girl?"

Garrett and Lindy laughed and their head went red at it.

"No, it's for someone else." Lindy corrected him. "I would like the same but with the name "Lindy" on it. Before I forget, put them in a box, please."

"Offer a jewel to someone means a lot." The jeweler stated. "You must love them a lot to do this. I will carve the names but you have to come back in forty five minutes. Don't worry about it, I will."

The two friends chuckled and blushed at this again while the jeweler was carving the names on the bracelets. They went on separate ways. Lindy was at the flower shop to buy a rose while Garrett was at the opposite shop, a toy shop to buy a teddy bear. Afterwards, they bought a card which is stated "will you go on a date with me?". Finally, they came back to the jeweler who gave them the bracelets.

"Do you know where you will go on the date with Logan Hunter?" Garrett asked.

"I don't know." Lindy said. "There are so many places that I don't even know."

"I do. Follow me." Garrett said.

Lindy followed Garrett who was leading her to a restaurant.

"This is 'O-Zen', a cool restaurant where you eat whatever you want for 20$." Garrett explained. "I know that you love to sing and this place has also a karaoke so you can show your singer talents to him. Besides, look at these people who get out of here. They are happy, so it can be only good. What do you think about it?"

"Thank you, Garrett." Lindy answered and hugged him. "This place is amazing. Now, we have to come back before our friends get worried."

They hurried to make their way back to the Pokémon Center.

"Where have you been?" Jasmine asked to her friends.

"Well, we…" Lindy sputtered.

"Went to the park and raced a lot." Garrett saved her. "She was good."

"Are you sure?" Logan W. said. "So why did you bring your bags?"

"Okay, I will tell you but you have to be cool with it, no matter what happens." Lindy warned them.

"Is it some kind of tricks you planned on me like you always do?" Logan W. asked.

"No, it's not about you, dude." Garrett said to him. "It's about Jasmine and Hunter."

Jasmine and Logan H. looked shocked at him and then at each other.

"What is the problem with us?" Jasmine demanded. "I know we are not best friends but we tried our best to forget what happened and go on."

"Wrong." Garrett smiled at it. Then, he took his bag and brought out the teddy bear who hold the message from his bag and gave the teddy bear to Jasmine. She read it and smiled at it.

"Are you serious?" Jasmine asked with her serious face.

"I didn't expect this answer." Garrett said.

"I mean, I thought you would never do it. Of course I want to date you!" Jasmine hissed and hugged him.

"So, when do you want to date?"

"After the first round of the Wallace Cup."

"Sounds fair to me. But someone else will be as happy as Jasmine." Garrett looked at Logan H.

"Will he chaperon you?" Delia asked and laughed.

Her friends launched a weak smiled at it.

"No, because he will be busy that evening." Lindy answered and gave the rose with the message to Hunter. He read it and was surprised.

"That's not fair!" Logan H. exclaimed. "I should be the one who asks you out. But yes, with pleasure of course. Besides, this rose is wonderful. Roselia has better but still, the intention matters."

Lindy punched him playfully in his arm and hugged him. But Jasmine suddenly ran away after this. Garrett chased her and caught her.

"What is the problem, Jasmine?"
