O is for Opal

Dawn, May, and Misty were excitedly talking about their anniversary.

At first, May and Dawn were the two talking about it but after a while even Misty got excited.

It was their one year anniversary since dating the guys.

The guys overheard their excited conversation and all three guys seemed nervous.

The girls had been sitting on the swings at the playground in the park.

Drew, Ash, and Paul were walking up behind them when they were saying this and had turned around and ran away not letting the girls see them.

"Dang it! I forgot about the anniversary." Drew said flicking his hair.

"Misty is so excited for it! Why? She's never been one to be excited for lovey-dovey things…" Ash shook his head as he slumped to the ground.

Paul kicked a tree in anger and exasperation.

Drew snapped his fingers together and smirked, "I got it!"

He turned to his two friends, "I have to go, see you around."

Ash then jumped up excitedly and said, "Dude! I have a plan! See you later Paul!"

Paul stood there in deep thought; he had no idea how to be romantic for this kind of crap.

He, however, did know someone who knew very well about things like this.

Reluctantly he pulled out his Pokephone and then dialed the number.

A sleepy voice picked up, "Hello?"

"Uh, hey, it's Paul, I need your help on something." Paul said, slightly embarrassed.

"Paul! As in Paul Shinji?" The girl's voice perked up.

"Yeah, me," Paul said.

"Little Paulie! What do you need help from me about?" She was now widely awake, her voice was booming with energy.

"Shut it Kammie, I'm really desperate if I need your help." Paul growled.

"Ooh Paul growled, must be something big." Kammie said.

She then breathed in and out and said, "Okay, I'm ready to listen now, spill!"

Paul rolled his eyes before saying, "Well, it's my one year anniversary with my girlfriend, and I don't have anything prepared."

Kammie screamed before saying, "You have a girlfriend? Why in Mew's name did you not tell me before?"

Paul rolled his eyes in frustration, "I've just told you, now help me. I forgot our anniversary."

Kammie was obviously disappointed, "My dear, dear cousin, I can't believe that you would forget your anniversary! Because if you asked her out, then you'd really have to like immensely like her!"

"But since you are my little cousin, I'll help you!" Kammie said.

Kammie then asked, "What's the special girl like?"

"Her name is Dawn Hikari, she's really upbeat, you know too cheery and happy, all that stuff, and she's a giant girly-girl." Paul said.

Kammie thought for a bit then said, "Paulie! I've got it! Jewelry would be perfect! I mean really she's a girl, of course she would love jewelry."

Paul nodded, "Sure, I'll talk to you later."

He wandered the streets until he found what he had been looking for, a jewelry store.

He walked in only to walk out utterly confused.

He reluctantly called his cousin once again, "Paulie! Having some trouble are you?"

Paul had set it on video phone and so he nodded, not saying any words.

Kammie thought and said, "What's her favorite stone?"

Paul shrugged.

Kammie frowned then asked, "What's her favorite color?"

"Pink." Paul said, positive of his answer because he had seen her wear it so many times.

Kammie frowned, "Pink jewels aren't as pretty though."

Then she perked up, "When's her birthday?"

Paul said, "In October."

Kammie grinned, "I got it! Go back inside the jewelry store."

Within a few hours, Paul had a pretty pink little box and a look of sweet relief on his face.

Kammie grinned, "Tell me what she thinks Paulie! And bring her around to see me sometime!"

With that the screen went blank and Paul made his way back to the Pokémon Center.

The next day, Dawn had received a text message from Paul saying to wait for him in the park.

Soon he made his way over to her with the pink box and she smiled as she saw him, "Hey Paul!"

Paul hugged her as she wrapped her arms around his neck and then said, "Happy one year anniversary Dawn."

Dawn's eyes widened as she saw the pink box and she squealed.

Then she brought out a dark blue box and said, "This is for you! Happy anniversary!"

The two looked at the boxes before tearing off the wrapping paper.

Dawn gasped as Paul looked slightly touched when both of them took out their present.

Paul's present to Dawn was a white gold bracelet with a white heart-shaped opal in the middle, "It's adorable! I love it!"

Dawn's give to Paul was a black opal pocket knife, "Your present is pretty good too."

Dawn smiled, "I can't believe you remembered my birthday was in October! Let alone remember that the October birthstone is Opal!"

Paul shook his head and said, "I can't believe you remembered my birthday and got me an Opal pocket knife."

Dawn smiled and then kissed his lips, "I guess our stone from now on is Opal."

Paul shook his head, chuckling, "I guess it is."
