AN:Thank u everyone who reviewed my second chapter!...I don't really know what to say now, so on with the chapter!

Chapter 3

Holly(eyes wavering): Genki...

Genki looked at Holly's sweet, innocent face and smiled.

Holly: I don't know if I can just go ahead and trust you again Genki.

Genki's smile quickly faded.

Genki: Wh-what?

Holly: Genki, I can't be sure if you're going to hurt me again or not. So I can't just go ahead and trust you again, and I don't know if you meant what you had said earlier, that you do trust me, how do I know, that that's the truth?

Genki: Holly, I said I'm sorry, what else do you want from me?

That's when Holly turned away from him. Genki lightly touched her shoulder, his hand gripping it with a little reassurance.

Genki: Holly, you should know by now that I trust you. I could never stop trusting you, since you have never done anything to hurt me, other than start hating me. I was just afraid I'd lose your friendship because of what I have become.

His voice softly to her, in both reassurance and concern for her. Holly then looked over at him, eyes wavering once again, then realized that he did indeed trust her. Then she started hugging him, and he returned the hug.

Holly: I'm so sorry Genki.

Genki: It's ok Holly, there's no reason to be sorry.

Holly: Yes...There is...

That's when she looked up at him, when he realized that she had tears in her eyes, and her tears were flowing down her cheeks softly.

Holly: How can you just forgive me that easily? I didn't trust you, and you've already forgiven me, I feel terrible Genki, please let me make it up to you somehow.

Genki: You don't need to make it up to me Holly, all I want is your trust and friendship.

Holly then smiled. The 2 of them just looked into each other's eyes for a little while, before closing their eyes, and their faces moving closer together. Just then, Pink eye, Rover, and Bluefur, were standing in the doorway, when Genki and Holly heard someone clear their throat, they quickly opened their eyes, moved away from each other, blushing, and looked towards the doorway.

Pink eye: Uh, Holly who is this man?

Holly: Oh that's right, you haven't met Genki yet. Pink eye, Rover, Bluefur, this is Genki, Genki this is Pink eye, Rover, and Bluefur.

Pink eye: This is the same Genki that helped you on your first adventure?

Holly: Yes, it is.

Genki: It's very nice to meet you. A friend of Holly's is a friend of mine.

Holly: Ok, guys, so what's going on?

Bluefur: It's time for dinner, Yosho told us to come and get both of you.

Holly: Ok, thanks guys. Come on Genki.

Genki: Ok.

Holly then takes Genki's hand in her own, getting him to follow her. Genki looks down at Holly's hand holding his, and slightly blushes. They then get into the dining room, and sees Yosho, Tiger, Hare, Suezo, Mocchi, and everyone else, waiting for them. Holly then lets go of Genki's hand, and sits down. Genki then sits beside her.

Yosho: So Genki. Are you in any relationships back in your world?

Genki blinks, taken aback by the question, but then answers.

Genki: No, I haven't been in any relationships at all. I've never been in a relationship with anyone.

Yosho: Oh. Why not?

Genki: Well, I'm just not really in love with anyone. I mean, there have been girls in the past that have been in love with me, but I've never loved any of them.

Yosho: Oh, I see. Holly's been in a relationship once before, but it recently ended. I don't think their relationship worked out to well.

Genki: Oh?

Genki looks over at Holly.

Genki: What happened between you two? Why'd you break up?

Holly looks at Genki, then turns away, gets up, runs out of the room, runs out the back door, slams the door, and runs into the garden, in the back yard. Genki then blinks in confusion, wondering what just happened.

Genki: Um...Was it something I said?

Yosho: I don't know. Maybe you should go talk to her about it.

Genki looks at Yosho, and nods his head, then gets up, and runs after Holly.

In the garden.

Genki starts looking around for Holly, and then sees her sitting down by a little pond in the garden. He then decides to walk over to her, walking quietly, so that she doesn't hear him. He then places his hand on her shoulder, startling her, and making her turn around, so that he can look her in the eye.

Genki: Holly...What's wrong?

Holly: Genki...I-it's just...Nothing, no forget it.

Genki: Holly, I can't stand seeing you like this, please tell me what's wrong.

Holly's eyes start wavering, and then she turns around sadly, but decides to tell him what's wrong.

Holly: Ok. Well, like my father said, I was in a relationship, but it recently ended. A few months ago, I met some guy, and I found out a few weeks ago, that he was in love with me, and I guess I had a slight crush on him. So we got into a relationship. Then a few days ago, he saw a pretty girl walk past him and I, and he instantly fell in love with her. He broke up with me, and chased after the pretty girl. So then I went back home, and then the next day, I saw him with the same pretty girl from the day before, and he started insulting me. He said that he doesn't know why he ever fell in love with someone like me, and that no one will ever fall in love with me.

Genki then gets enraged from what Holly told him.

Holly turns around, and sees that he's starting to get slightly angry. She then puts a hand on his shoulder, looking him in the eyes.

Holly: Genki?

Genki: I'll kill him! He can't get away with talking to you like that! No one can talk to you like that, and get away with it. I'm not just going to stand around, watch him insult you, and do nothing about it!

Holly's eyes start wavering.

Holly: Genki...Just forget about it...It's all in the past, and besides, maybe he was right. Maybe no one will ever fall in love with me. I will never find someone who loves me for who I am.

Genki: Holly! Don't talk like that! You will find someone who loves you for who you are, and I'm not going to forget about it! It might be in the past, but I'm going to get him back for that!

Holly: I suppose your right Genki. But if I ever do find someone who loves me for who I am, then it won't be for a long time.

Genki: Um...

Genki looks down at the ground, and blushes.

Holly notices this, and blushes slightly, looking at him.

Holly: Genki..?

Genki then looks at Holly, a blush still on his face.

Genki: Yeah?

Holly: I...um...

That's when she shakes her head.

Holly: ...Nothing...Genki..I am curious..Why were you blushing?

That's when Genki's blush deepens.

Genki: Um...Uh...No reason. Well, I'm getting tired, so...Uh...Good night Holly.

Holly: Good night Genki.

Genki looks at Holly, then looks around for a minute, picks a flower up from the ground, gives it to Holly, his blush deepening more, and runs back to the house.

Holly holds the flower in her hands, then watches Genki running back to the house.

Holly: Genki...What is going on with you?

Holly then walks back to the house as well, looking at the flower that Genki had given her, not having any idea that someone in the shadows had been watching Genki and Holly talk.

AN: Sorry for that chapter taking so long. Before summer started I had all the final exams to study for, so I couldn't work on the third chapter, and then after that, I had writers block for the longest time. But I hope you all liked the chapter, and I really hope that this chapter was worth the wait. Please r&r.
