Summary
It's the latest in romantic gestures - the old Galarian legend: give the person you like an Applin and you'll be together forever.
It's the latest in Raihan's major causes of stress - he hates all the attention the Applin rumour is getting.
...Raihan is also a giant hypocrite.
(Raihan's other major cause of stress? Leon. With Raihan, everything in his life always comes back to Leon.)

Summary
A series of standalone, yet related, non-chronological ficlets of Leon and Raihan being cute and oblivious together. 💜🧡
----------
“...How long?” Raihan asks. “Since you decided to confess? You liked me for a whole year?”
“I don't really know,” Leon murmurs, “but when I thought about it properly, I realised there probably wasn't ever a time when I didn't.” He hoists himself up onto one elbow to beam down at Raihan. “Does that make sense?”
It shouldn't but it does, and Raihan - who thought his realisation of a five-year crush was bad enough - suddenly feels like he's lost to Leon yet again.
