I'll Choose You , Always (pucca x garu)

¿Too Late or On Time?

23 minutes into the movie and as I look over at my friend's I see Abyo nervously looking at random object around him to not loose the bet to the girls, also cause it's a kissy scene. Ching is leaning on Abyo's right arm with her hands wrapped around it. I face over to Pucca, she has her eyes set on the movie, siping water from her cup. I mean it's the romantic scene so of course she's into it. But as I look at her, I start getting flashbacks from when i 1st met her: I was reading a book and she was passing by. I remember her stopping in front of me. Next thing I knew was that she was now sitting next to me holding in her left hand, an ice cream cone. I looked over and she was now sitting next to me, eating her ice cream. And then I felt ice cream plotted on my face and then I felt someone's lips. It caught me by surprise so I ran away but I was being chased by Cupid's arrow & I doged it. Next thing I knew, my cat and this girl were in love with me so I used my garusion illusion to get away from them. But at the end, I chose pucca & that's when our friendship began & her crush.

Suddenly I hear someone crying, I snap back & see Pucca tearing up with Ching over the scene that was playing. I hear abyo saying "it's just a kiss, you guys get kisses literally everyday from us, & you don't cr- wow.... Nevermind, hmph!" I sigh while the girls start laughing, then I realized.... I've been staring at pucca for too long! Did she notice me?! Did she even see me or get a glance?! Okay I'll just play it cool. I let out a quiet sigh. I hear pucca giggle and I look at her again & she's now has her leg next to mine. I don't know if I should move it or keep it there, it was a battle back & forth until I saw that pucca had moved hers. I was surprised. Normally pucca would blush & try to get closer to me, but she just moved her leg & I couldn't tell if she was red , the only light that was shining was the TV. What if... Pucca... Nah I don't think so, she kissed me earlier today, but what if she did? Yet again why would I care? I don't even feel that way I'm supposed to feel for her. And yet , it bothers me.. Maybe she just moved it just cause? But why isn't she doing anything now? Then I see a note on the floor behind pucca, I grab it, open it & read it,

"Don't stress garu, it's the movie"

-Abyo

I look at abyo and he has this smirk on his face... Ah damnit, so he now has an idea & I'm not ready to get asked questions, especially about my feelings for Pucca... but more importantly, when did Abyo get paper? A pencil? When did he even get up? Maybe when I was thinking about Pu- okay I gotta stop. I look down and see my half eaten dumplings, I pick one up and start munching on them, I'm finally paying attention to the movie & on time I see. Finally a good scene, Abyo of course gets excited and kicks the table from under causing Ching to smack him. "Behave Abyo it's just a scene!" "Aha yes sorry Ching" Pucca laughs and continues to watch the movie, then suddenly I feel her leg... Brushing up against mine, I KNEW IT! But I don't care, so why was I all worked up about it. I started choking on my dumpling, & Pucca sees , she pauses the movie & runs into the kitchen to get some water. She then comes back out, hands me the water, and helps me out. Next thing we all heard including Pucca are the words that I knew things would never be the same again, "that's what happens when you realize you love someone and now that you bought a ticket there's no turning back" I choke on my water now...

Ching was confused at the words Abyo said "what do you mean what's going on?" I look at Abyo and give him a begging look not to say anything. He gets the signal and says "huh? Oh no nothing I was just talking, don't listen to me i didn't know what to do but hey looks like Pucca handled it pretty well aha anyways let's get back to the movie" I look at Ching & look at Pucca. Pucca hands me a napkin to clean myself up while she cleans the floor due to the water I coughed out. I felt bad so I helped her out while I see Ching pull Abyo to the kitchen and I started to panic. What was he gonna tell her?! It's bad enough Abyo knows but Ching tells pucca everything! I don't want Pucca to get her hopes up, I don't even know myself what I want!? So I try to listen to the conversation but all I heard were whispers. Then I heard "Garu- *whispers* Pucca but she- *whispers*" then Ching says "it's not a big deal, everyone knows that" I get up and run towards the kitchen, Pucca is confused as to see why I ran so fast, so she follows and I start to panic even more. I open the doors & see the couple kissing.... I- uhh... sigh. Pucca tho, she just giggles & walks away. I follow her and sit back down. Pucca plays the movie & sits down as well, but she sat in Ching's seat. I was confused, why has Pucca been acting so weird now? Is it cause it's the 1st time us boys tag along in her sleepover? Or is she actually over me? That would be a good thing right? I would finally get time for more training without having to run away every 5 minutes. But something in me didn't like it. I try to play it off but I got so upset as to why Pucca didn't sit next to me... Finally Abyo & Ching came out & Pucca sat back on her seat. Whew I thought, maybe she was just keeping her seat warm after the makeout session, eww. Now as they sit back, they keep acting so weird, ching kept looking at me and whispering things to Abyo. I pay attention to the movie & now the scene that was playing caused pucca to start leaning on me. I felt better , but as soon as I looked at Abyo, he started making faces & I froze. Ching didn't seem to notice so I felt at ease. Ching started to hide behind Abyo's eyes & says "I hate this" while Abyo nervously replies "scaredy cat". Pucca starts to use my arm as a cover & as I look at the scene, I get the jump scare... I hide behind Pucca's flowing hair. "HA YOU LOST!" Abyo said "Now you get a makeover by Pucca herself *wink*" I lost my cool. I looked at Pucca and see laughs. Now apperantly that was the end of the movie. So I turn the lights back on & Ching says "hey let's clean up so that Dada won't have to have so much work tomorrow morning" We all agree and start heading out to the kitchen with our dishes. "Me and Ching will be on dishes while you and pucca sweep and mop?" I look at Pucca and she goes and gets the two. We start heading out and I hear pucca humming. I try to listen to see if it's a song we could duet too, I didn't have any luck. Then it was my turn to mop, I started heading for the mop & I heard ching come out saying "Hey Pucca I have to talk to you & I think you're gonna love it!" I run back and see Abyo alone so I take my chance. Then abyo soon realizes and said "I didn't say anything, i just said something everyone knows and that's why she replied with the exact same words I'm telling you now. I promise" I see Ching talking to pucca and i see pucca jumping up and down, I get worried and I look back at abyo and he said "oh Ching brought pucca this new dress & shoes, so I'm guessing that's why she's acting like that" I run out and see Pucca giving Ching a hug while ching said "I knew you'd love it, I was battling ring ring for them until I told her they're were for you, & surprisingly she gave them to me". I smiled at the fact that we FINALLY made peace here at Sooga Village. "Yuck! When is it bath time, I touched food in the water and splashed it all on me cause I thought it was an enemy trying to drown me..."

"Ughhhhhh!" We all groaned.

Pucca grabs Abyo and signals us to follow her. "Oh she's gonna give you guys a tour then take abyo to the bathroom" I nod and look to my surprise pucca was already steps ahead. I hurry up and I see how HUGE the upstairs room is! "Told you it was big! But don't worry, once she gives us the tour you'll be fine" I hear, & I keep walking. Pucca stops by a room and ching says "I present to you guys the uncle's room! We have to be really quiet they're asleep by now" And then I see this big red glittery door. I gasp & I walk towards it, then pucca giggles and says "ta-da". Her voice made me smile so big, I didn't even realize it. Then I remembered that I've actually been in her room, I just didn't pay attention cause I was being chased by cats after I drank the shrinking juice & while trying to hide from pucca as well. We go in and a gasp escapes from my mouth. It was all so clean & her bed was a king size. Her room was filled with pictures of us on the wall and some were just of me alone when we'd hang out aha ... alone. "Cool you have one of me! Okay I really need to shower please" abyo cried out and ching says "I also want to shower but I'll wait outside the door" and abyo smiled and gets his clothes and walks out. Ching whisper's sometimes to Pucca & laughs away. Then as ching walks out I see pucca pull out the mattress & struggles so I decided to help her out. As I'm doing it I start to think about how again pucca can still love me. It's just amazing how she has so much love for me, I felt all these emotions. I saw how sad her eyes were when she saw it was me. I knew I hurt her & yet, she didn't think any less of me . Then as I started to come back, I soon realized the mattress was already on the floor & I started to walk up to it but got pulled back and soon I realized...

My hand was holding hers.... & I froze.

She gasps & I blushes... I felt myself get warm too...

Then I realized that wasn't enough... I wanted both of her hands... I wanted her close...

Closer... Wait!

Oh... No...

No it can't be!...

Do- Do I like Pucca back?!....

But... She has been so weird tonight with me....

What if she's over me? It's too late right....
