"That poor Misty character." Cathy remarks, chewing thoughtfully on popcorn.

"Ya, Ash is WAY too dense to notice her." Tori agrees, earning a glare from her best friend. "Sorry..."

"When are Hoenn episodes gonna start? I wanna see some Contestshipping action!" Rio wails.

Tori sighs. She and her friends are hanging out at Cathy's house to watch a Pokemon Valentines Day special. But it makes all of them upset because of they're fail crushes in they're own ways. Cathy had given up hope with Yuma a while ago, Kaito was too bothered with Haruto for Dextra, Ana doesn't care about boys, Rio claims not to be interested in anyone but obviously has a crush on Dumon, and as for me... I just wish that Yuma would notice me.

"Hey." Dextra speaks up. "Remember back when we were making our New Year's resolutions and we all agreed that we would all get chocolates for our crushes when Valentine's Day came around?"

We all groan. Loudly. "Yes..." We reply in unison.

"Well, tomorrow's Valentine's Day and the closest department store closes in 30 minutes." She informs us. "Okay, sounds great. Let's go!" She answers herself.

We all groan but follow her outside to Nistro's truck( her car is being fixed) and pile in the back. Dextra and Ana climb in front because... She pushed everyone away.

~*~~*~*~*~**

"Ooh! This one is purrrfect!" Cathy exclaims. "If only I could give it to someone..."

"Why not Caswe---" Ana cuts herself off once she gets a Cathy Glare. "WHAT? Am I the only one who ships CathWell? They look cute together!"

"What about this one?" Rio asks, ignoring Ana. She had decided to just buy chocolates for Shark.

"Looks great!" I tell Rio, who's attention is drifting to the balloon assortment, including a shark.

"Be right back!" She squeals.

"Do you like this one for Kaito?" Dextra asks. She holds up a small red box.

"Sure! Honestly, I would just buy Yuma the biggest box... But I don't have nearly enough money!" I moan.

"Well, the second biggest costs... Not as much!" Ana tells me and holds up a box that costs $15!" Ya, I did't feel like converting. Oops! "Here!" Then Ana shoves the box in my arms.

So we finally go to check out with some nice chocolates. Except Ana. She didn't buy any, only a big lollipop for herself.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Yuma!" I yell,running up to the boy discussing something with Caswell. Cathy had decided to watch me talk to Yuma first then decide if she should give Caswell chocolates. Meanwhile, Dextra and Rio were handing out chocolates and Ana is just tagging along.

"Hey, Tori! Guess what! I-- What's behind your back?" He asks, running up to Tori.

"um--- It's for you." She mutters. "Here!" She shoves the chocolates in Yuma's hands. "i-- it's for-- Will you--"

"Thanks, Tori! And I got something for you, also!" And Yuma gives Tori a pack of Skittles. And it says, To: Toi From: Yuma

"Thanks." And she walks away.

~*Meanwhile, in the Park*~

"Kaito. There you are." Dextra says, walking up to Kaito, who's sitting on a bench and watching Haruto play with a stray dog.

"Hello, Dextra. Happy Valentine's--" Kaito gets cut off as Dextra thrusts the Ghiradelli chocolate box into his arms.

"Those-- are for you. Enjoy." She runs off, but Kaito dashes after her.

"Wait! Here. For you." Kaito gives her a bouquet of tulips, her favorite flower.

She just smiles and continues to run away.

Kaito lets her this time.

~*Meanwhile, Downtown*~

Rio finally spots Shark and runs up to him.  "there you are, Reggie! I have something for you..."

"Reggie? Well, that's new." He replies. "And what? Because I have something for you, also. But you go first."

"Well. I like nicknames. And here!" Rio gives her brother a huge chocolate bar. "you're favorite kind, Hershey's Dark!"

"Thanks. now here you go." In return, Rio gets an ice-blue bracelet.

~*~*~*~*~*

"So, Rio, let's start with you. You look happy." Ana decides as another episode of Pokemon finishes.

"Okay. Welll. REGGIE BOUGHT ME THIS BRACELET!" Rio squeals.

Next is Dextra, who quickly explains, but ends with, "And he gave me these flowers." Then holds up the tulips.

Ana didn't give anyone anything, and Cathy has a VERY long story, so she's going last.

"Well." I start. "Yuma was sitting at the school, and. I gave it to him. Then-- he- he cut me off when--when I was trying to-- THENHEGAVEMEAPACKOFSKITTLESWITHMYNAMESPELLEDWRONGONIT!!!!!" Tori groans and pulls out the "Toi" bag.

Everyone comforts Tori in every way possible, and Cathy admits that she was afraid to talk to Caswell so she pretended to be his "secret admirer". Finally, Tori says that she just needs some time alone so she heads to the mall.

And there, she sees Yuma. Talking to a flower vendor. Holding a bag. Walking over to Tori. And saying, "Sorry. About the Skittles. I spelled your name wrong. But in return, here." And he opens the bag. First out is a new bag of Skittles, bigger and has "Tori" spelled out on it. Next is a golden-chained necklace with an emerald key in the center. He drops his bag and runs behind the flower vendor. He pulls out a bunch ot small heart-shaped balloons spelling out Will You Be MINE? Finally, Tori finds herself holding a huge bouquet of all different flowers that she can't name. "Happy Valentine's Day, Tori!" Yuma exclaims.

A/N: Wow, I actually got this out early this time! Well, guys, have a great Valentines Day and if you have a boyfriend/girlfriend, do something good for them. And if you have a secret crush, then do something GREAT for them. Even if they're an anime character.
