Rachael: A Rose for me-A Rose for you doesn't own Pokemon
Me: You got that right! Chapter 7!!
Chapter 7
A Darkhorseshipping Chapter
Rachael and Riku's 1st lesson was Battle. Riku and Rachael were battling each other.
"Go Arcanine!" Rachael yelled.
"Go Salamance!" Riku said.
The Pokemon glared at each other.
"Arcanine use Fire Blast," Rachael ordered.
Riku didn't respond quick enough and Fire Blast hit.
"Now class… did anyone see what went wrong there?" Prof. Oak asked.
Wally raised his hand.
"Riku was distracted," Wally said.
And that was true. When Rachael fired a Fire Blast her eyes turned a red color and Riku couldn't help but think:
'Wow… she looks beautiful like that.'
"OK Sit down you two… umm… Val and Viv… you're up next," Prof. Oak said.
Rachael and Riku sat down next to each other (much to the dismay of their fan clubs).
"Your eyes look nice in orange," Riku said.
He then looked down. It was a stupid thing to say. Rachael thought so.
"My eyes look good in orange? That's a pretty bad flirting technique!" Rachael laughed.
"Oh… you'd know if I was flirting," Riku said.
Rachael looked him in the eyes.
"Really? Bring it on!" Rachael challenged.
Riku looked at her and saw it… she was serious.
"Hey, I'm Riku," Riku said.
"Oh wow! I think I'm in love," Rachael said sarcastically.
"Play along," Riku said.
"Hi. I'm Rachael," Rachael sighed.
"That's a nice name. What does it mean?" Riku asked.
Rachael gave an odd look and said:
"It means lamb."
"That's nice. I thought it meant beautiful," Riku smiled.
Rachael smiled.
"You seriously think I'm beautiful. No kidding?" Rachael asked.
Riku contemplated this for a moment. Should he tell her the truth or lie?
"W-well…" he stuttered, beginning to blush.
Rachael started to laugh.
"I'm only joking! I'm a bit hyper because I'm hungry and I had Dr. Pepper," Rachael revealed.
"Right," Riku mumbled.
At Lunch, the girls and guys were sitting together. No one was really talking.
"So… you got the Pizza?" Ash asked Misty.
"Yeah," Misty said.
"Oh," Ash said.
Silence was again broke out.
"Wow. I am so glad this deal hasn't made things awkward," Drew said, rolling his eyes.
"For the record, I blame you," May said angrily.
"For the record, no one asked your opinion," Drew replied cockily.
"Yeah? Well-" May started.
"May calm down. You're making a scene," Steph said.
"You heard my Sweetheart," Brock said rolling his eyes (AN: Ummm… can he do that?).
Steph kicked him in the shin.
"OWWW!!" Brock yelled.
Rachael laughed into her soup. Riku shook his head.
"I'm out of here," Riku said.
"Me too, I guess," Rachael said.
They left the cafeteria. The girls stared after Rachael.
"Wow…" Anna said.
"What?" Dean asked.
"I know," Izzy said.
"What?" Julz asked.
"Rachael didn't finish eating…" Misty started.
"And?" Ash asked.
"She never leaves a meal," May revealed.
The guys fell over animie style.
Rachael and Riku were in the rock garden.
"I'm hungry," Rachael complained.
"You just ate," Riku said.
"Yeah… but I didn't finish," Rachael said.
"You didn't have to come," Riku said, sitting on a stone bench.
"Yeah… but if I didn't you'd go play neck nuzzle with Erica," Rachael said darkly.
"Not true," Riku said.
"So true," Rachael countered.
"Not true."
"So true."
"No- OK, we sound like May and Drew," Riku realized.
"Yeah… why does Drew pick on her?" Rachael asked.
"Uhhh… I don't know. He… likes to, I guess," Riku said.
"Why?" Rachael asked.
"Ummm… she fights back?" Riku guessed.
"We all do," Rachael pointed out.
"Ummm… I always thought it was because he liked her, and she was cute when she was angry," Riku said.
"Huh… maybe you should've dated her," Rachael said.
Riku got up.
"Why? I like you more," Riku said.
"Really?" Rachael asked.
Her face flushed. He bent down to her. His lips were close to her ear.
"This is how I flirt," he whispered.
Rachael shivered.
"Ooh… nice technique," She said.
Riku smiled softly. Rachael stood up and walked behind him as they head back to the building. Unfortunately, they were in the rock garden and… Rachael fell. On Riku.
"Hmmm… this could be considered romantic… if you fell on me," Rachael said.
"I think the guy falling on the girl is over-rated. This is way more of a turn-on," Riku said.
Rachael glared.
"I swear! You're sweet for the duration of 5 minutes then you… turn into Brock!" Rachael said angrily.
She got up and glared at him.
"Meh… Drew's a bigger playa… which is weird… since he doesn't really like girls yet," Riku said.
Rachael shook her head. She stormed off and left Riku behind.
"Yeah… That worked well," Riku said.
And with that, he hit continuously banged his head on the bench.
Drew: Ouch. That would hurt
May: Do you really think I'm cute when I'm mad?
Drew: Ummm… hey! This chapter is about Rachael! Talk to her
Rachael: Well… I wouldn't say romantic… Hey! Where's the authoress?
May: She's hiding in shame.
Rachael: Oh! Ummm… please REVIEW!!!
Drew: Yeah… I feel bad for her.
May: Awww!!! Empathetic Drew is sweet!
Rachael: Hee!
