Question: GUYS THERE IS NEWS ON SEREBII THAT A NEW POKEMON GAME IS COMING OUT!oneoneone111(Even if it is unconfirmed)
My Answer: HNNNG so excited! (*crosses fingers for R/S/E remake*)
Characters: Isaac X Anelise, as requested.
Summary: Isaac and Anelise get trapped in a pokemart due to a an unconventional losing of the keys, but when Isaac's audino uses Attract on Anelise get a little more interesting. (As given to me by Artemis)
Attract
"I just want you to know," said Isaac with infuriating calm, "that this is one hundred percent your fault."
Anelise whipped around, her dark hair flying. "It was your audino that swallowed the keys!" she shot back, glaring at him from behind her red-rimmed glasses.
"But you're the one that works here," he answered, gesturing to her gaudy pokemart uniform, "and you're the one that phoned me over here to begin with."
The two scowled at each other. "It's not my fault that I needed a ride home!"
"Technically, it is," he replied, lifting a scholarly finger. "You're the one that keeps flunking your driver's exam."
"Yeah, well, you're the one that refuses to help me study!"
"Also, you're the one that dropped your keys. They just happened to fall into my audino's mouth."
"Stop defending your audino!"
Kip, Isaac's audino, looked back and forth from the two as if watching a ping-pong match as they continued to bicker. The pokemon hated to see them fight; he could always see the telltale glimmer of annoyance in his trainer's eyes, and Anelise was always so loud…
Deciding on his course of action, Kip drew his plump self up to his full height, and focused his eyes on Anelise. She glanced down at him, surprised and irritated. "What, Kip?"
Kip's eyes glowed cerulean, and Anelise stiffened, trapped in his gaze. Her eyes flashed the same colour as his before she dropped in a faint.
"Anelise!" The name sprang forth from Isaac's lips, and he caught her before she hit the floor. "Anelise?" He shook her once, and, upon receiving no response, swung his head around to glare at his pokemon. "Kip, what did you do?"
Kip giggled, pleased with himself.
A garbled sigh brought Isaac's attention back to the girl in his arms. Anelise stirred, her eyes fluttering open as she straightened. "What happened?" she murmured, dazed.
"I don't know." He gazed down at her, his face wiped clean of annoyance and replaced with concern. "Are you okay? You just fainted there."
Instead of pushing him off and becoming defensive, as he expected her to do, her expression became radiant. She threw her arms around his neck, and squealed, "Oh, Isaac! You caught me, didn't you?"
"Uh…I thought I did," he said, not returning the embrace. "I'm starting to wonder, though. You seem to have head trauma. Maybe a concussion."
"Don't be silly!" she laughed, pressing her cheek against his lovingly. "You wouldn't let that happen. It's because you care about me, just like I care about you!"
"Are you drunk?" he asked bluntly.
"Nope!" Her lips popped on the P.
"Drugged?"
"Of course not!"
With Anelise still hanging from around his neck, Isaac wheeled around to face his pokemon. "What did you do?" he demanded, aghast at his friend's behavior.
Laughing, the audino sketched a heart in the air with his finger.
"You used Attract on her?" Isaac yelled.
Overcome by the hilarity of it, Kip doubled over in laughter, nodding vigorously.
Isaac returned his bewildered stare to Anelise, who was gazing at him with eyes enriched with adoration. "I love you, you know," she told him, giving a rapturous smile. "Always have, and always will."
Bit by bit Isaac's anger at Kip faded, and mischief welled up in its place. A smirk tugged at his lips, while Anelise blinked obliviously up at him.

Half an hour later, Isaac was perched on the checkout counter, a camcorder trained on Anelise in his hand. "So what do you love about me, Anelise?"
Her mouth went soft at the thought, and she cupped her chin in her hands. "Well… I love how even though you tease me, you always back me up when I need you to. I love how your eyes get darker when you're deep in thought, and I love that dimple that sometimes shows up when you smile. I love your spazzy way of dancing. I love… everything about you."
Her sentence ended on a serious tone, and his smirk faltered.
She noticed his change in expression immediately. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," he said hastily. He looked at the camcorder, and then back at her. Sighing, he deleted the video he took, and tossed the camcorder to the side. "How long until it wears off?" he asked Kip.
Kip shrugged.
"What's wrong?" repeated Anelise.
Isaac glanced at her, and felt guilt consume him. Standing there in front of him, with her heart laid bare and no way for her to control it, he couldn't find any humor in it anymore. "Just… stop talking," he told her. "Kip used Attract on you; you're completely out of it."
She just stared at him blankly.
"Okay, stay here," he said, hopping off the counter. "I heard water helps the effects to go away." He ducked into the back storage area, leaving Anelise and Kip alone.
As soon as he was out of sight Anelise relaxed, the blank look evaporating. Kip blinked at her in confusion, and she gave him a weary smile. "The effects faded a long time ago," she explained, blowing her bangs out of her eyes. "That jerk; it was such a dick move to film me, even if he did throw it away after. Still…" She chuckled to herself. "It was nice to say those things out loud, even if he'll never know they're true."
Realization dawned on Kip's face, and she dropped him a wink. "What do you say to using Attract on him next time, hm? Then we'll be able to call it even for the swallowing-the-keys thing."
Kip bobbed his head in agreement before Isaac came back with a bottle in hand, and Anelise schooled her features into expressionlessness once again.
