Bright x Strawberry

Requested by tea-cookierun

"Strawberry!! Strawberry!!"

Bright's loud and optimistic voice rang through the air as she suddenly burst into Strawberry's room and tackled Strawberry into a hug. Strawberry, who had been more focused on her game than anything else, nearly had a heart attack when Bright tackled her. The two fell over onto the ground which resulted with a very embarrassed Strawberry and one very happy Bright.  After a few minutes of silent comments about Strawberry nearly dying and Bright protesting they managed to get up and dust themselves off. 

Strawberry took a deep breath. Her dad had probably let Bright into the house. After composing herself from the very frightening experience of being interrupted during a fortnite game she mumbled very quietly into her hood. There was a very evident pink blush on her face.

".. what was so important.. that you needed to do that for.." 

Bright tilted her head at Strawberry and put on a bright and cheery smile. 

"Well, I haven't seen you for so long!"

".. It's been a day since I've seen you."

"I know! That's so long!"

Strawberry sighed at the statement Bright made and nodded slowly. She wouldn't admit it but she was very happy to know that the cheerful cookie had taken time out of the day to think about herself.  Why? She didn't really know, but that didn't stop the small blush from growing just a tiny bit.

"Of course.."

Bright plopped herself down on a nearby chair and spun around on it. 

"Soooo... Cheesecake is having a Valentine's Day party on Saturday and I was wondering.. if you wanted to come!" 

Oh no.  She said it.  The forbidden word that struck every person who had little to no social interaction down to the core. However, the fact that Bright had invited her to a Valentine's party made her heart beat quicken.

"A-a.. party?" 

"Yeah...! A party!"

Bright's expression faded a little bit but quickly perked back up. Strawberry knew the emotion Bright was feeling almost immediately.  She was feeling nervous. Was she making Bright feel nervous? 

"I-I don't know Bright... you know how I feel about parties... I always end up sitting in the corner alone-"

Bright almost immediately interrupted Strawberry and put her hands on Strawberry's.

"-but you won't be alone! I'll be with you..." 

Strawberry's eyes widened when Bright had gently put her hands on hers. Now Strawberry's blush had been worse then it had initially been.

"N-no... you don't need to do that...Y-you should be able to enjoy the party without worrying about me..."

Bright got closer and Strawberry could see now that she herself had a small blush on her cheeks.

"But what if I won't enjoy it if you're not there? I care about you Strawberry..." 

Both Strawberry's eyes and Bright's eyes widened. Strawberry could feel herself melting in nervousness. It's true, she did care a lot about Bright and as much as her heart ached to spill her feelings out of her mouth it was so out of place of her.  What if she said something wrong that would hurt Bright or scare her away? The most she could get out was stammering. Oh god she was a mess.

"I-I care about you too Bright... which is why... I don't want to let you d-down.."

Did she really just say that? Oh, Bright probably thinks she's pitiful right now, barely can talk, can't even go to one party, can't even go one day without playing her games-

"You won't let me down! Because I like you Strawberry! Like... Like like!.." 

Strawberry stared into Bright's eyes for a minute before breaking the stare by closing her own eyes. Gathering up all the confidence she could she lowered her hoodie a little bit. She leaned forward and kissed Bright. To say the kiss was awkward, was an understatement in Strawberry's eyes but it was still really nice. Looking at Bright's reaction she looked like she found it nice too.

"O-okay... I'll go to the party with you... just for you Bright."

Bright slowly covered her mouth in awe of the kiss Strawberry had just given her and nodded after a short time. A large blush covered Bright's face and it seemed like she had run out of things to say. Instead, Bright let out a happy squeal and hugged Strawberry as tightly as she could. This time though, Strawberry didn't mind much. After all, it was Bright.
