The day of the festival

Hau

Eek! The festival is today!!
I sprinted over to grab my clothes.
That was when I noticed my flower crown was destroyed.
I picked it up and stared at it. Must've been from the fight with sun.
I sighed.
"I'll get you a new one." I heard a tired voice behind me mumble.
I turned around to see the Blonde, emerald eyed boy inches away from my face.
I noticed him shuffle back so we werent close anymore.
But I felt my face get hot and I saw him blushing red.
Today's a perfect night to ask the handsome boy out.
After I force him onto a few rides of course.
Maybe I should buy him a malasada?

"Haaaau-" I heard gladions voice say, "You alright?"
I realised that that I had accidentally been staring at him so I nodded, quickly turned around to grab my clothes and ran to the bathroom.
I closed the door and began changing.
I looked in the mirror. I had a scar across my forehead that I hadn't noticed before.
I began shaking, when did that get there?
"Gladion have i always had a scar on my head?" I muttered.
"You only just realised? Sun gave you quite a deep cut aswell when you fought."
"I don't remember that.." I said, trembling, then I did remember something, "wait, I did feel a sharp pain a few times when he hit my head against the wall, OH MT GOD THERE WAS A PIECE THAT WAS STICKING OUT."
I heard gladion gasp, "he could've fucking killed you!"
I shook my head, "I'm lucky he didn't then!" I said with a slight laugh.
I got my clothes on then walked out the bathroom and over to gladion.
He had gotten changed at the same time as me, just outside.
I walked over to him.
"Gladion you look so coool!" I squealed.
He then, shockingly grabbed my face, gently though, and took a close look at my scar.
It was quite a big one, he also noticed a faint one right across my eye.
"You have two scars" Gladion muttered.
If anybody wasnt up close and searching for it they wouldn't have noticed.
I didn't notice.
Gladion moved back and smirked.
I was feeling a bit insecure about the scars, it shows how weak I'd been.
Why was gladion smirking? Did he like seeing me hurt?

Then he said something that made me feel happy.
"Those scars make you look badass."
I smiled.
"You were very brave!" he laughed.
I felt he was trying to comfort me so I hugged him.
He was amazing.

The festival

I was clinging onto Gladions hand, we were sprinting and we met up with the others.
We all greeted eachother happily and went wandering off.
We were walking past until we saw a ferris wheel.
"Gladion can we go on the ferris wheel?"
Maybe I could confess there.
He sighed, "sure."
He went up and payed money and went into the cart, I followed him in.

We chatted and admired the scenery as we went round for a bit.
Then the ride stopped.
Me and Gladi were at the top, perfect time.
"Gladion I have to tell you something." I mumbled.
"I do too." he said.
"I love you." We both said at the same time.

We stared at eachother for a few seconds then burst out laughing.
"We both had the same idea!" I giggled.
"I guess we did." Gladion laughed.
We both came down from the ride after we reached the bottom and walked over to everybody.

What I hadn't noticed is that my hand was feeling warm.
I looked down at it and saw Gladion gripping onto it.
I looked away with a red face.

"Soooo, what were you talking about." Lana giggled.
"Did you finally release the gay?" Moon giggled.

Gladion immediately pulled me close and kissed me.
I heard everybody squealing but I payed little attention.
Gladion then broke the kiss and smiled.
I looked at the floor, sweating, bright red.
I then looked to the side to see everybody giggling and squealing.
Was us revealing we're now dating really a good thing to them all?
I guess so.

I took Gladions hand and began running off.
"Come on gladion let's go on this ride next" I giggled,
"Wait no, let's play that game, I wanna win a plush!"
Gladion sighed and smiled.

I love gladion.
He loves me.
