ㅤㅤ( in her mind , flowers fluttered.
ㅤㅤher heart pounded like a drum ,
ㅤㅤso much that she swore she
ㅤㅤcould hear it in her ears.
ㅤㅤyet on the outside , she looked
ㅤㅤsame old , same old. )
ㅤㅤ" i've been well .. with your
ㅤㅤcompany , even more so.
ㅤㅤhow about you .. ? "
ㅤㅤ( so , the fact that he cared
ㅤㅤabout her likes and dislikes
ㅤㅤmade her really happy.
ㅤㅤthough it was hard to express ,
ㅤㅤthere was a small smile on
ㅤㅤher lips. which was a / lot /
ㅤㅤfor sabrina to do. )
ㅤㅤ" i'm flattered you remembered. "
ㅤㅤ↳
ㅤㅤ( a brief nod. it was sweet
ㅤㅤthat he had remembered
ㅤㅤthat part about her : her
ㅤㅤdisinterest in battles.
ㅤㅤnot a lot of trainers she's
ㅤㅤbattled really cared about
ㅤㅤhow much she didn't like
ㅤㅤto battle , more focused
ㅤㅤon their own desire for one. )
ㅤㅤ↳
ㅤㅤ( funnily enough , it was a
ㅤㅤlittle more difficult to get a
ㅤㅤproper read of red's thoughts.
ㅤㅤso for her , it was a little hazy
ㅤㅤon what his intentions were
ㅤㅤfor coming her way for a visit.
ㅤㅤhe didn't have any battling drive ..
ㅤㅤbut she couldn't know for sure. )
ㅤㅤ↳
ㅤㅤ.. i do.
ㅤㅤ( those half - lidded eyes would
ㅤㅤflicker down to look at the chocolate.
ㅤㅤthat cute little buneary face ..
ㅤㅤshe almost felt too guilty to eat it. )
ㅤㅤ.. i appreciate it a lot.
ㅤㅤ( as from her prediction ,
ㅤㅤhe seemed geared towards
ㅤㅤher gym specifically than just
ㅤㅤtraversing through the city
ㅤㅤfor whatever's sake. )
ㅤㅤ" .. what brings you to saffron ? "
ㅤㅤ( she'd ask with a very slight tilt
ㅤㅤof her head. curious , but her
ㅤㅤface didn't really show it. )
ㅤㅤ" a rematch .. ? or .. were you
ㅤㅤjust in the area ? "
ㅤㅤ( the latter she somewhat had
ㅤㅤdoubt for being the case. )
ㅤㅤ↳
ㅤㅤ( ah , so he did want to
ㅤㅤgive it to her .. swallowing
ㅤㅤdown her rising embarrassment.
ㅤㅤshe takes the candy , before
ㅤㅤgiving a small nod of thanks. )
ㅤㅤ( she gave a small glance
ㅤㅤdown. no sight of any other
ㅤㅤcandy .. she doubted there
ㅤㅤwas anything in his pockets.
ㅤㅤthat's just asking for a mess. )
ㅤㅤ.. you didn't have to.
ㅤㅤ( a small mumble , as a brush
ㅤㅤof pink dust speckled her cheeks. )

" ... I just happened to come. "
( he'd say bluntly , although surprisingly. red was very well known for his love of battles -- as unorthodox as his approach to life itself was. to see him at all was to expect his presence to have something to do with battling ... and yet , it didn't seem so. )
⤵️
( startled by her sudden appearance , only just barely having processed the fact he was IN her gym , red gives her a wide - eyed expression for just a moment ; rare for him , and definitely something she'd savor in her mind.
something about him all surprised would no doubt be cute to her. )
