Chapter 12: Double Date...Disaster?

Yellow paced back and forth in her room. Her blonde hair was let out of its usual ponytail and fell down a few inches past her waist. She had been thinking about what she should do with her feelings towards Red. It was a crush, an infatuation as she might call it, but definitely a crush. "Oh! What should I do? Should I ask him out? No, I'm just going to stutter badly!" Yellow repeated this line over and over again in her head and out loud as well.

Blue on the other hand knew about her friend's dilemma and called her.

"Hello?" Yellow asked.

"Hey Yellow! It's Blue," she said cheerfully.

"Oh hi! Is something wrong?"

"Not really, just wanted to check up on you and Red."

"W-w-what?" Yellow stuttered.

"You mean you two haven't gotten together? Just ask him and I'll help you with anything you need."

Yellow's side of the line went quiet for a few minutes, "alright Blue, I will and tell you after."

"Okay then!" And they hung up simultaneously.

One hour. Two hours. Now three hours past and Blue still hadn't gotten a call from Yellow. 'What's taking that girl? I know she's shy but I didn't think it'd take her this long,' Blue thought as she slumped back on Jiggly as it floated through the air. Her PokeGear rang loud and she picked it up immediately.

"Yes?" Blue answered.

"Blue! I-I did it!" Yellow was ecstatic and so was Blue for her friend's courage.

"See? I knew you could do it!"

"Yeah! And I'm really going to need your help, and I mean badly need it! Please come to my place at seven thirty tonight!"

"Alright, see you then," Blue hung up and directed her Jigglypuff over to Viridian City.

She got there with a few minutes to spare. Yellow swung her door open and pulled Blue up to her room, almost causing them both to trip on the staircase. "What should I wear?" Yellow asked.

"Well where are you going?"

"Well a restaurant first and then hang out by Cerulean Cape."

"Hm...Well something not so frilly or flashy."

"Um, Blue? I don't have anything like that."

"I know and that's good!" Blue replied and rummaged through Yellow's small array of clothes. She finally pulled out a nice combination. A white tank top under a light yellow open buttoned blouse; a nice light blue skirt with black stockings and white slip ons. Her hair was kept down with a simple white headband on.

"You look so cute!" Blue exclaimed, "And with a few minutes left to spare."

"Blue? Can you dress up too please?"

"Why?"

"Well you see, I'm still a bit nervous and I kind of asked Red if we could um...double date?"

Blue's eyes widened and frantically asked, "who are you and what have you done with Yellow?"

"Blue!" She whined, "Please? I know I wouldn't really do this but I would probably be stuttering and fidgeting if I was alone with Red. So I thought it would be great if you came along."

"Oh I planned to anyway; just watching you two from far away is so cute!"

"See that's the thing, Red and I would be much more comfortable if we had our friends there, which includes you."

Blue held up her hand, "stop right there, 'friends'? As in, not just me?"

Yellow shyly nodded but pushed her friend into the bathroom with a bunch of clothes she left the last time she was visited.

Blue came out within a few minutes in her old black dress and some nice black flats. "So who-" But she was stopped when the doorbell rang. Yellow rushed and opened it to find Red in his regular jeans and a dark red dress shirt, but this time without his signature hat.

"H-Hi Red," Yellow said with a shy smile.

"Hi Yellow! Are you and Blue ready?" As if on cue, the brunette came in.

"Alright, so now we all know that you two are going. So who's my partner in crime?" She asked the two. They turned their heads to find Green standing by the door in his usual attire (black shirt, purple pants).

"Can we please get this over with?" He asked the three impatiently.

"Wait a minute, I'm going with him?"

"Well he was the only one available," Red told her. Blue simply sighed knowing this night would be a very long on.

Surprisingly, things did go quite quickly. Red and Yellow blushed and nervously talked with each other while Blue tried to engage Green in at least enjoying himself, which he responded with a glare or by not even saying a word to her. Though they were unknowingly sparing glances at each other.

Cerulean Cape was great at night with the water glistening from the moonlight and the stars twinkling in the sky. It was also a famous date spot according to the Cerulean Gym Leader, Misty.

"So, did you enjoy tonight?" Red asked Yellow and she blushed more and nodded.

Sitting far away and spying on them was none other than Blue, commenting on what an adorable couple she thought they were. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted Green starting to walk away, "where are you going?" She asked him.

"Home," he simply replied.

"Of course you had to ruin the night," she huffed.

"What are you talking about? This date was for them. Not for me or for you, it's not like we went on a date. We just made them feel easier around each other and nothing more," Green continued to walk away. But for some reason, Blue felt a tinge of sadness.

Yellow and Red decided it was getting late and that they should head back home, right after he gave her a quick peck on the cheek and flew home with his Aero. Yellow touched her cheek where Red had kissed her and thought she would be able to sleep tonight.

Blue on the other hand was feeling a bit uneasy, 'why do I feel…sad because of a guy like him?' She wriggled out of the dress for her night wear but a note slipped out of the pocket. She promptly picked it up and read.

'Next time won't be such a disaster Pesky Girl.'

Blue's frown turned into a smile and called Yellow to plan the next one.
