Chapter Text
"Hey, Pokecrap!" Emari mocked. Them and Poketwo didn't really get along well, they would normally fight and mock eachother.
"No need to be rude, Emari! Why can't you just take me seriously?" Poketwo said with a grin.
"I'm sorry that your brain was fried last year." Emari said as they rolled their eyes.
"You're so mean! You know why I went crazy? You!" It said as it started pointing at Emari.
"Well, I don't know why I even bothered talking to you!" Emari replied.
"Well, I'm sorry that my stupid head was fried last year!" Poketwo said again.
"Oh yeah? Well what do YOU have to say for yourself!?" Emari yelled.
Poke glared at them, before running away to it's house. While running, it's hat fell off.
Emari noticed, and grabbed Poketwo's hat for it.
'I might give this back to it later... maybe.' they thought.
As Emari thought, they went back to their house to do their stuff.
~~~
As Poketwo got back home, it noticed that its hat was missing. After checking every room on the ground floor, it checked in the bathroom. As it looked into the mirror, it saw a note with a few flowers drawn on it.
"If you want to talk, come over here and I will tell you all the things you did wrong..." Emari had written on the note.
"They still hate me huh..." Poketwo muttered to itself, while going up to it's bedroom.
It looked through its closet until it found what it needed, a black turtleneck sweater and some black jeans. It went downstairs and put everything on. When looking out the window, it realized that it still didn't have it's hat. With that thought, it decided to go to Emari's.
When it arrived there, it knocked on the door. There was no answer, so it took a step closer and knocked louder. Finally, Emari opened the door.
"What do you want?" They asked.
"Nothing really, I was wondering where my hat is?" Poketwo questioned, while holding it's hand out.
"Ugh fine, I'll bring it down for you. Follow me." Emari stated and headed back inside. They brought Poke's hat out and set it in front of Poketwo.
"Thanks." Poketwo said with a smile.
"You're welcome." Emari smiled back.
They stood awkwardly for a little bit before speaking again.
"Um, do you wanna hang out tomorrow?" Poketwo asked.
"Sure, whatever. What time?" Emari asked.
"9pm?" They suggested.
"Sounds good to me. See ya tomorrow."
"See ya," Poketwo replied, before turning and walking towards it's house.
~~~
After that conversation, Emari's mood changed. They began thinking about Poketwo more, which was something new for them.
This continued on for about 2 weeks straight, before it finally happened. Emari was sitting on their porch, drinking a glass of lemonade. They heard their front door open and saw that it was Poketwo.
"Sup." Poke said.
"Hi. Do you want anything to drink?" Emari questioned.
"No thanks, I'll just sit on the porch, if that's okay with you?" Poketwo replied.
"Yeah, that's cool." Emari replied.
Poketwo sat by them, looking through Emari's desk.
"Poke, I'm quite hungry, you want to get some McDonald's?"
Emari questioned.
"Yeah, sounds good."
They both left, heading in opposite directions. On their way there, Poke noticed that Emari was walking slower than usual. They were also quieter. Once at the restaurant, they ordered their food, while Emari waited for their order. Soon enough, their food came.
"Here's your order," The waitress said.
"Thanks," Emari replied, taking their food and starting to eat.
They tried to make small talk, but it didn't work because the only thing being discussed in that moment was the meal. When Emari was in the half of the meal, they felt nervous, so they excused themselfs to go to the bathroom. Upon leaving their seat, they walked around the corner, hoping they wouldn't run into anyone. Once in the bathroom, Emari locked the door behind them and leaned against a wall.
"Why am I so nervous?" They said aloud, then sighed.
They continued thinking for a while until they heard a voice from the other side of the door. They recognized it as Poketwo.
"Emari? Are you in there? Can we talk?" Poke questioned.
Emari sighed, deciding to reply.
"You can come in..." They whispered, opening the door slightly.
Poke stepped inside, shutting it once he was inside. Emari walked over to the sink, turning it on to face them.
"So, why are you here?" Poketwo asked, worry laced in it's voice.
"It's just... I'm nervous." Emari replied, not making eye contact with Poketwo.
"Oh..."
"I wanted to ask you on a date."
"...Date..? Why?"
"Because..." Emari stuttered, In a clearly nervous state.
"Just tell me!"
"Because I like you, alright?!" Emari yelled, turning around to face Poketwo, who was frozen in shock.
"You... you like me?" Poke stammered.
"Yes, and I think we could be great together. We get along well, and... I just want us to be a couple!" Emari exclaimed.
Poketwo stared at them, Emari doesn't know what expression Poke is signifying with it's expressions. Surprise? Disgust? Hatred? Love?
"I... uhm..." Poketwo trailed off, trying to form words.
Then, it slowly reached down its hands and grabbed Emari's. They immediately jumped.
"Emari; i... i love you too." It spoke softly and lovingly, tears welling on it's eyes.
"You do?" Emari replied, surprised.
"Of course. Even though we haven't been on good terms for most of the time, i've fallen in love with you." Poketwo confessed.
"Me too, so much... I've never felt this way about someone before." Emari admitted, blushing lightly.
Poketwo pulled Emari into a hug, pulling Emari close to it. Their arms wrapped around eachother, embracing each other tightly.
"I love you, Emari." Poketwo whispered.
"I love you too, Poke."
~~~
Six months passed by, and their relationship just grew stronger. It became an official couple. And they were happy together. Both of them always held onto one another for warmth when it was cold outside, or to feel loved. No matter where they were, Emari and Poketwo always stayed next to eachother. They were so perfect for one another.
One day, Emari and Poketwo went to that same McDonald's that they confessed their feelings to one another. It was a memorable place. But it wasn't a memory that they would want to forget.
This made them happy.
When Emari and Poketwo finished eating, they both walked home. But on the parking lot, Emari stopped walking.
"What's wrong Emari?" Poketwo asked, noticing something was wrong.
"I'm nervous about something," Emari replied quietly.
"What is it?"
Emari was silent for a second. Then Poke turned around to look at them.
"I've... been planning this moment for quite a while. So, please let me tell you now..." Emari said, getting nervous.
Poketwo nodded to show that they understood. Emari took a deep breath, before saying what they want to say.
"You and I, we've been dating for 6 months now. At first, you were just a enemy of sorts, but after some time, we started falling for each other. I've been wanting for us to go further, since I don't want to lose you. You mean the world to me. So, then..." Emari kneeled in front of Poketwo, pulling out a ring from their pocket.
"Will you marry me, Poketwo?"
