(Alright!  So who's ready for the small, petite fairy boy known as Ortega! He's my second favorite out of Team Star cause he uses Fairy types. Also for the sake of this story, since its not canon what Ortega's age is, you are both 14-15. So with that, let's go! On to the story!)

"Come on! You gotta ask her out, Ortega!" Giacomo said trying to cheer on the said boy.

"Yeah, Ortie! You never know what could happen!" Eri chimed as she picked him up, "She could like you back and you could both end up as boyfriend and girlfriend!"

"Or..." Ortega wiggled his way out of her hands and landed on both feet, "... I could be rejected by her due to the fact that I could be way below her standards!"

Mela scoffed, "Y'know, Ortega, with that attitude, you might as well call it quits right now."

"W-What?" Ortega questioned.

"Mela!" Eri said to Mela, "Don't say that!"

"Well, it's true, as long as he keeps tellin' himself that, he'll never be able to know if she likes him or not." Mela said as she put her hand on top of Ortega's head, "You need to seize your moment! It's not like she's even cares about how you look."

Ortega made a small pouty face, but then looked down, "B-But... What if she does? That would mean that I would have asked for no reason, I would've asked her out for no reason, then I would be completely embarrassed in front of the whole entirety of the school, and everyone would make fun of me for even thinking about asking her out! Especially since she's so.. So...!"

E: "Popular?"

A: "Charming?"

G: "Heroic?"

M: "Beautiful?"

Ortega, feeling his confidence shrink up with each word they said, shrunk back, "Exactly!"

Mela only sighed, placing her hand on her head, "Look, Ortega, you have GOT to reach for your chance." She said as she placed her other hand on her hip, "Listen, I wanted to be in the Art Club, but I was too nervous, so I had asked Eri to help me out, and look where I'm at! I'm actually part of it now! My art may look like a Fuecoco just smacked it's hands all over the place, but I'm part of the club!"

After Mela finished speaking, Penny walked into the conversation, "Sorry if I'm bothering at all, but may I ask, what's going on...?"

Ortega was about to answer, but was interrupted by Eri, "Ortie has a crush on (Y/n)~!"

Penny looked at Ortega with a suprised look, "Really? You like (Y/n)?"

Ortega huffed, then turned his head, being unable to reject the fact as he gave a small, but noticeable nod.

Penny smiled, "Well, then why don't you ask her out then?"

Ortega blushed and cringed at the question, remembering how nervous it made him when he thought about it, "W-Well, I-I-I just think she'd rather have someone better than me, l-like... I don't know, maybe that one guy, what was his name..."

"Arven?" Penny said, "No, they're only friends and besides, (Y/n) already said that she only thought of him like a brother."

O: "Well, then what about that other guy! The cocky one with green hair who wears his outfit incorrectly and has those glasses."

P: "Nope, she only talked with Fern once, and she's already told me he's in a relationship with a girl named Celeste."

O: "Well-! Either way-! She would never, in a million years, want to go out with me!"

E: "Well, you never know if you don't try!"

A: "Thou are correct, you may never dethorn a rose if you never pluck it from its root!"

Ortega crossed his arms, "Fine... I'll ask her when she visits the Base again!"

Eri shook her head, "No, you've gotta ask her today!" She then picked him up once again and twirled him around, "She might get asked out by another guy by time she goes to your squad's base again!"

Giacomo nodded in agreement, "Yeah dude! You should plan something for today for you and her!" He took a moment of thought, then an idea popped into his mind, "How about this? You go get your Pokémon team ready. One of us will look for her and tell her to go to your base!"

Eri gasped in excitement, "Ooh, I know what you're saying! After one of us sends her to your base, you can challenge her to a battle! And after you both battle, you can ask her out after the battle!"

Mela nodded, "If she says yes, then boom, you successfully asked her out and got a girlfriend! If no, then you at least tried rather than quittin' like you used to."

"I can take care of calling (Y/n), I've got her number saved on my phone." Penny said as her Rotom Phone flew out of her bag, buzzing with a sound of excitement and glitchiness in its voice.

"That would be great, Penny!" Eri cheered out with as she finally sat him down, "So Ortie, go to your base and get ready! If you want, Atticus can go with you to help you make sure you're prepared!"

Ortega sighed and rolled his eyes, "I think I'd be just fine going on my own, thank you."

Eri nodded, "Alright then! Go before she gets there before you and you aren't ready!"

Ortega then power walked out of the room as the other five watched him and sat there.

E: "Look at him, it's like he's growing up so fast!"

P: "Why are you saying this like he's a little kid?"

G: "Cause he is the smallest one of the group."

A: "'Tis the truth, he has been mostly known in Team Star for his youthfulness, and how he's more childish in our group."

M: "... Y'know, it's gonna be kinda sad, if you think about it."

P: "What do you mean, it's gonna be a bit sad?"

M: "I mean, he's gonna have a girlfriend, then overtime, y'know, he might change and get a little more mature, then he'll no longer be known as the kid of the group."

G: "Huh... Y'know you're kinda right."

E: "... But hey! That's a good thing! He's getting mature and he'll no longer feel less confident in himself!"

A: "Ah, thou are correct, we should be content with this accomplishment!"

P: "Yeah, let's just hope that (Y/n) accepts him."

Everyone nodded and hummed in approval as they walked out of the room, continuing on with their plan at hand.

-------

Ortega stood by the base camp tent, waiting for the (h/c)-haired girl to arrive. He paced around in front of the tent, as his Hatterene and Dachsbun sat on the ground in curiosity. Surprisingly, even though Ortega was showing a mass amount of emotion, it didn't really care that its trainer was pacing around, it just watched him look panicked.

"Ah, what if she decided that I wasn't worth the trouble or effort to meet with? What if she thought that it was stupid of me to ask of them to ask her to come here?" Ortega sighed, "I knew this was a terrible idea-!"

"Hey!"

As soon as he turned around, he let a a small shriek, "(Y-Y/n)?! Y-You actually came!?"

(Y/n) smiled, "What? Did you think I wasn't going to?" She said as she giggled a little bit.

Ortega blushed a little, his face looking as if he became a Jigglypuff, "U-Uhm-! N-N-No, I-I knew you were going to come, I mean..." He stopped trying to calm himself down, letting out a small breath of air before speaking again, "A-Anyways. W-Would you like to battle me...?"

(Y/n) smiled, she thought he was cute when he stuttered, "Well, yeah, that's one reason why I came!" She said as she grasped her Meowscarda's Pokéball, "I had something I wanted to ask you, but that can wait!"

Ortega, relieved that she didn't judge him on his stuttering, smirked, "Alright then! Let's make this a good battle then!" He said as his Dachsbun into battle, as it ran in front of him, and barked excitedly.

---------

Throughout the battle, Ortega had a huge advantage over (Y/n)'s Pokémon. After a large amount of time, type advantages, and Charms, they were both pit against their last Pokémon. Ortega's Hatterene and (Y/n)'s Houndstone.

"Alright Stone, let's finish off this match with your Terastrialization!" (Y/n) called out as she raised her arm, holding the Terastrial Gem in her hand as energy irradiated from it, then tossing it. Then Houndstone gained a crystallized ghost hovering over its head, "Finish Hatterne off with your best move, Last Respects!"

Ortega was about to yell out for his Hatterene to use Dazzling Gleam, but was too late as the large dog-like ghost Pokémon charged into Hatterene, allowing for a critical hit, "Hatterene!"

Houndstone woofed in victory, running up to (Y/n) and jumping into her arms, "Haha! Good job, Stoney!"

Ortega was concerned on how you could hold the skeletal ghost dog without flinching, but he didn't question it as you returned it to it's Pokéball.

"So... You won. That's good." Ortega said as you noticed that he looked like he was happy, but conflicted as he was wanting to say something, "Hey... If it's alright, may I ask you something?"

(Y/n) thought for a moment then said, "I've got something to ask of you as well, actually..." She then grinned, "What if we say it at the same time?"

Ortega was reluctant, but nodded, "Alright... Ready?"

(Y/n) nodded, "On the count of 3! 1...."

"2..."

"... 3!"

They both then said at the top of their lungs.

O:"Would you like to be my girlfriend?!"

(Y/n): "Would you like to be my boyfriend?!"

They both blushed at the sentence, then (Y/n) smiled, "So this means... You felt the same way about me?"

Ortega turned away and nodded, "... Yes."

(Y/n) happy about this news, hugged him tightly, then placed a quick peck on his lips, "I'm happy then, that is, if you wanna be my Fairy Boy?"

Ortega grinned, feeling confident in what he was going to say next, "Yeah, and you can be my Pastel Girl."

You were both happy and you both knew that nothing could ruin this moment for the both of you....

That was until you noticed that someone had taken a picture of you two holding each other.

(Oh this one...

This one was just full-on floofy-

That's fine though, cause I hope it was fluffy enough to warm some hearts.

Anyways as you might notice, it takes a little bit of time for me to write these cause of classwork, so I hope that's okay.

Also if you saw the reference, then :D

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this one!)
