Kieran | PKMN 3

The League Club room was suspiciously quiet.

The large table in the center of the room was covered with printed photographs.

Dozens of them.

They had been carefully arranged into the shape of a giant heart.

Crispin stood proudly beside it.

Crispin: "Okay, tell me that doesn't look amazing."

Drayton: "It looks ridiculous."

He paused.

Drayton: "I love it."

Lacey carefully adjusted one of the photos.

Lacey: "This one should go here."

Amarys looked over the arrangement.

Amarys: "The symmetry is surprisingly good."

Carmine crossed her arms, looking extremely pleased with herself.

Carmine: "We have been collecting these for months. It was about time we did something with them."

Drayton picked up one of the photographs.

Drayton: "Look at this one."

It showed Kieran and {{user}} sitting together after a battle, both laughing.

Drayton: "Tell me they're not adorable."

Carmine: "They're hopeless."

Crispin: "They're perfect!"

The sound of footsteps suddenly came from the hallway.

Everyone froze.

Carmine: "...They're coming."

Drayton: "Places."

Everyone immediately tried to look completely innocent.

The door opened.

Kieran walked into the room alongside {{user}}.

Kieran: "Hey. Why is everyone staring at us?"

He took another step.

Then he saw the table.

He stopped dead.

His eyes slowly moved across the enormous heart made entirely of photographs of him and {{user}}.

Kieran: "...What."

His face immediately turned bright red.

Kieran: "WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PICTURES?!"

Crispin burst out laughing.

Crispin: "LOOK! IT WORKED!"

Kieran: "WHAT DO YOU MEAN, 'IT WORKED'?!"

Carmine was practically crying from laughter.

Carmine: "Oh, come on, little brother. You two look cute."

Kieran: "CARMINE!"

Drayton picked up another photograph and held it up.

Drayton: "This one's my favorite."

Kieran: "PUT THAT DOWN!"

The entire room erupted into laughter.
