Pink: The Color of Love

"together now"

Y/n's POV 

I decided to take Adam's advice and check the Sk8 app. I opened it and saw an unread DM. I opened it. 

Miya 🐈‍⬛💚🛹 has challenged Bubblegum 🍬🛹 to a BEEF!

Do you accept Bubblegum 🍬🛹?

Yes ✅ or No ❌

What is going on?  I asked myself. 

I didn't know you could DM beefs like that and how Adam knew about the DM. I'm assuming that he helped develop the app considering he's a founding member of S. I accepted the beef and met Miya at S the following day. 

"Hey Miya, what's this about?" I asked him. "We still don't know who's better, me or you. Our last beef ended in a tie" he explained. "Oh? You still think that you could win against me?" I asked him. "I know I can" he replied to me. "That's what everyone says, yet I'm undefeated" I replied. 

The traffic light went from red, yellow, to green. I pushed off of the ground really hard and tried to dust him, but he was able to catch up with me. 

"Do you remember that beef?" Miya asked me. "I've been trying to forget it" I replied to him. "That beef made history Y/n" he reminded me. "What are trying to get at?" I asked him, confused. "We raced while holding a full on conversation, like we are now. Last time it was a tie, this times things are gonna be different" he explained. "How so?" I asked him. "Well for starters, there will be a winner...and there will be a huge change after this race" he added. 

My heart started beating faster and I was losing the lead. I slowed down a little more so I could look Miya in the eyes. 

"What change are you talking about?" I asked him. "Y/n, I've never dated anyone before and I have a good reason why. For five years I've been in love with you. That's why I ditched you before that beef five years ago. I can't even put into words how much regret I hold for that, I've tried to put that in words but a thousand words could never tell you how much I regret that. A thousand words also can't fully express how much I love you Y/n" Miya confessed...sober!

I looked right into his eyes and felt nothing but joy. 

"I remember when I first saw you skate here, I was engrossed in your skill and I remember the first time we hung out, I remember when we went to the beach together and how we played Just Dance in the hotel, I remember when we went to the arcade together and you kissed me in the photo booth. I still have the pictures in my phone case to this day, they're always with me" Miya smiled at me. 

It was a contagious smile. 

"When I first found out you were dating Nishimura, my heart broke...but I was happy for you. He treated well until you ended things. When we went to Tokyo together, it made me realize how much I wanted to tell you how I felt. I've waited five years for this Y/n. Will you be my girlfriend?" Miya asked me. 

I was speechless. Miya was so sweet, I didn't know what I was gonna do with him. 

"Don't keep me waiting, this is making me nervous!" Miya's cheeks were pink. "I'll say yes...only if you can keep up" I smiled at him before pushing off harder. 

I wasn't worried because I knew Miya could catch up. 

Miya's POV 

I watched as Y/n dusted me...again. Her hair was blowing in the wind and she looked back at me and gave me a smile. After five minutes, I caught up to her. 

"I'm keeping up...so what's your answer?" I asked Y/n. "You only get answers once I beat you" she said. 

I shook my head and I was able to keep up for the majority of the race. Once we got to the warehouse, Y/n did her bridge and I jumped over the metal beam. This time, Y/n didn't hit her head. Once we got to the stairs, we slid down the rails and then I remembered that Y/n was on the broken side again. I reached out to her, but I saw her jump before I could get to her. She did a backflip and landed back on the board, leaving me shocked. 

"You didn't think I'd improve?" she asked. "When did you- Never mind" I said to her. 

We were almost at the finish line and I was trying my hardest to get past Y/n, but the gap didn't close. 

"That was a good race" Y/n said to me. "So..." I said. "You kept up with me...so you know the answer" she smiled brightly. 

I got off my board and walked over to her. I pulled her close to me and held her waist before kissing her for the first time. After a few moments, Y/n pulled away and looked at me. 

"Don't be mad...but you confessed to me already. You just don't remember" she said. "What are you talking about?" I asked her. "Do you remember when we went to the party and you got drunk?" Y/n asked. "...kinda" I replied to her. "You confessed that night at my house" she said nervously. "Oh- um- did I do anything else?" I asked, not knowing if I wanted to know what else I did. "I tried changing my shirt and you didn't let me until I insisted oh, and you kissed me" Y/n said. 

I turned around and hid my face in my hands. 

"Miya, don't be embarrassed, it was cute. I didn't tell you anything because I wanted you to remember your confession" Y/n explained to me. 

I looked down at her, she was now my girlfriend and that made me so happy. I picked her up and held her before kissing her again. 

"Oh my god he actually confessed!" I heard Reki's big mouth from one of the bushes. "You've been watching us!?" I yelled at him. "Hey man, it wasn't just me" Reki pushed the bushes back. 

Langa Joe and Cherry were also there. 

"Get your hands off of my niece right now before I amputate every one of your limbs" Cherry threatened me. "Wait! Wait! Wait! Please! Don't hurt me!" I put Y/n down and I was ready to run. 

Joe was holding Cherry back.

"Kidding!" Cherry smiled at me. "Uncle Kaoru! Don't do that!" Y/n said. "I'm proud of you Miya, you did it, after five years" Cherry said. "So...you all have been watching us?" Y/n asked. "Actually Langa, Joe and I helped Miya come up with this idea" Reki said. "...so all of you knew?" Y/n asked. "In our defense, we didn't know for five years" Langa said. "I mean, it is what it is now, Miya and I are together now, so it doesn't matter how long you've known" Y/n held onto my hand.
