Ah, good ol' MangaQuest. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon. I wish I did, but then, don't we all?
…
1 - Comfort
It's not his fault that he hits on every girl he sees, Crystal thinks as she sobs into the ever loyal Yellow's shoulder; the thought doesn't help her feel better, but Gold showing up on her doorsteps later that evening with a bunch of soft white lilies does bring a smile to her face.
2 – Kiss
Green merely arches an eyebrow when Blue runs into his gym, interrupts his gym battle and drags him to the back room to tell him about Gold and Crystal locking lips; he promptly throws her out (but smirks when he remembers what he saw last Sunday in Professor Oak's lab).
3 – Soft
Her hair is delightfully soft, reminding Gold of cotton candy; when he mentions this in a thoughtful tone, Crystal simply smacks him for making her crave the sweet treat.
4 – Pain
"Don't tell me to calm down, Super Serious Gal," Gold snaps, cradling his injured Pichu in his arms, "When it's in pain, I'm in pain, or do you not care!"
5 – Potatoes
"I didn't know your family specialized in selling potatoes," Crystal exclaims, and Gold leans against the counter, flashes a grin and replies: "There's a lot you don't know about me, Super Serious Gal."
6 – Rain
Gold loves it when it pours and the water runs down his window; the water pools at the bottom of his window frame and shimmers like crystals.
7 – Chocolate
"Happy Valentine's Day?" a sheepish Gold offers, holding the box of chocolates up to Crystal's eyes- the girl glares at him and stalks off, fuming at the fact that he thinks he's forgotten Valentine's Day and not her birthday.
8 – Happiness
"It doesn't exist," Crystal says flatly when Sapphire tells her about how happy she is with Ruby- the smile is wiped off Sapphire's face and Crystal instantly feels bad for ruining her moment; yet she's somehow managed to convince herself that happiness doesn't exist for couples in love.
9 – Telephone
Gold has to listen to Green droning on and on about how busy Crystal is and how he really shouldn't be calling her during 'working hours', yet when he hears an indignant yell and the sound of a breathless Crystal going, "Gold?" into the phone, it's all worth it.
10 – Ears
The first thing that gave him away when he lied was the glowing tips of his ears; Crystal exploited it for all she was worth.
11 – Name
He's called her 'Super Serious Gal' so many times that she hesitates when someone calls her by her real name.
12 – Sensual
The way she kisses, Gold thinks, cupping her face in his hands, ought to be outlawed in every region, from Kanto to Sinnoh.
13 – Death
It is Crystal who squeezes his shoulder when he realizes that his mother is dead, and there's no bringing her back; it is Crystal who doesn't hesitate to pull Gold in for a hug and cry along with him.
14 – Sex
Blue smacks her face when Silver comes to see her with a swollen lip; his explanation was that he asked Gold if he had done it with Crystal yet.
15 – Touch
If he had known that a single touch from her could take him in, wash him over and pull him under the tide, he would have never flirted with every girl in sight (because really, their flirty strokes didn't compare to a touch of her finger).
16 – Weakness
Mega knows that despite the type disadvantage she's not likely to succumb so easily to Explotaro, but she's not so sure about her trainer's willpower against the boy.
17 – Tears
He's surprised to find himself crying, too, after he realizes what he's done to Crystal.
18 – Speed
Crystal runs faster, praying that her long legs outlast his strong feet because everything about them is about speed, and the slower one always loses.
19 – Wind
The best moment of their relationship, Crystal reflects, was when he took her to the hilltop where they sat, watched the sunset, and let whispered confessions linger on the tiny breaths of wind.
20 – Freedom
When a nervous Pearl comes to find Crystal (she still has no idea why Gold would send Pearl), she bluntly tells him that without Gold, she's never felt so free (it's a lie, of course, she feels the chains weighing her down every day).
21 – Life
"Life's about give and take, and I don't understand why you're always taking and I'm always giving you everything I have."
22 – Jealousy
She tries to tell herself she's not jealous that Gold gets to roam everywhere he wants; he tries to tell himself that he's not jealous Crystal has such a stable life.
23 – Hands
He stares at the two hands on his chest- he hears a stifled sob, turns around, sees a blue haired girl dashing away- he raises his own hand to try and stop her, but realizes that it's already too late.
24 – Taste
He tasted like citrus and chocolate, Crystal remembers- she promptly drops the chocolate covered orange slices into the trashcan, deciding to tell Ruby later that Professor Oak unknowingly ate his birthday gift to her.
25 – Devotion
"Maybe you need to learn the meaning of devotion," Silver drawls when Gold pours out everything to him; when Gold protests, Silver simply says, "So prove it to her."
26 – Forever
He shows up at her door again, and this time she just stares at him- he doesn't budge, saying, "I'll wait out here forever if I have to."
27 – Blood
She can ordinarily stand blood, but the sight of so much blood coming from a dazed Gold positively sickens her and she wishes that she never has to see it again.
28 – Sickness
"I told you not to drag me out into the rain, because I told you we'd both get sick," she snaps into the videophone, and he grins from ear to ear, despite the thermometer in his mouth: "But it was worth it, wasn't it?"
29 – Melody
Neither of them could sing to save their lives- well Crystal could carry a tune; but secretly, Red thought that they might be able to create a pretty amazing song.
30 – Star
"I like your star earrings," Gold stammers, and Crystal tugs nervously at her earlobe, smiling like a stupid schoolgirl.
31 – Home
"You're welcome to call this home if you want," Gold offers, smirking and she's tempted to smack him, yet she refrains because she senses that underneath the flirty tone, he's making a genuine offer.
32 – Confusion
Gold stares at the pile of paperwork for a good five minutes before reaching for the first piece of boring looking article on top- Crystal takes pity on the flabbergasted boy and helps him with his paperwork for the rest of the afternoon.
33 – Fear
She supposes that the initial hesitation she felt when Gold asked her out was because of the fear that he would see she wasn't as put together as she tried to be.
34 – Lightning
Usually, Crystal detested storms, and by default, lightning; yet the way Gold commanded his Pichu to use Thundershock fascinated her (although she suspected that she was more enamored with the trainer, not the attack).
35 – Bonds
The only way you could describe the bond between Gold and Crystal was strange.
36 – Market
It sounded odd, but the first time Crystal admitted to herself that she was in love with Gold was when he took her to the Goldenrod Market; the way he got so animated while explaining the different products revealed a softer side she hadn't seen before (and would like to see more of in the future).
37 – Technology
He silently thanks the genius who invented videophones, because if not, he would have to spend several months without talking to Crystal.
38 – Gift
Silver groans in exasperation: "For the last time, Gold, buying your girlfriend a coupon for a free meal isn't really a fair gift."
39 – Smile
Green rolls his eyes, Silver calls him clichéd, Red grins goofily, and Blue gushes about how sweet it is; but Gold holds stubbornly to the fact that the first reason why he fell in love with Crystal was her smile.
40 – Innocence
The downside to dating Gold- losing your innocent mind within a couple weeks.
41 – Completion
"I'm sending the both of you out to finish this Pokedex," Professor Oak declares and Crystal feels her heart soar; later, Gold hears Green say to his grandfather, "Nicely done, Gramps."
42 – Clouds
"I think that one looks like a Snorlax," Crystal says, pointing with her free hand to a white cloud- she turns her head to realize that Gold has fallen asleep, his fingers still intertwined with hers.
43 – Sky
"It's so big," Crystal says one day, observing the way blue skies rolled across the Johto region; Gold opens his mouth, saying "That's what she-" before Crystal decides to shut him up with a kiss.
44 – Heaven
When he was with Crystal, hearing her laugh at one of his jokes, or just having her with him was all Gold needed to know of heaven-
45 – Hell
-and her leaving the next day for a journey (for six months!) was all he needed to know of hell.
46 – Sun
The way his eyes gleam like gold dazzles her sometimes and reminds her of the bright, majestic Sun-
47 – Moon
-and the way her eyes speak of rolling tides reminds him of the alluring pull of the Moon.
48 – Waves
They know that their relationship will never escape the rolling, turbulent waves of fate; but the both of them are willing to stick together and ride out the storm.
49 – Hair
He is very pleasantly surprised to find that she smells like strawberries, instead of the lavender he expected her to be.
50 – Supernova
When they're separate, they create their own light and worlds; when they're together, Blue fondly observes, they create a supernova that far outshines the world around them (and it didn't look like it was going to burn out anytime soon).
