1 year ago..
"so... I did some talking with the others in town... and ... may have figured out why you were... off... for the past month..." Pollo smiled as an inteleon walked up.
"apparently they had been watching you for months.." Pollo chuckles as the inteleon blushed.
Sprout froze for a second. "huh?.. what?.." Sprout was flustered..
"ehe.. It's hard not to ire someone who managed to take down a pokemon with a type advantage over them.." The inteleon smiled
"uh.. uh .." Sprout was left Speechless as the inteleon hugged him. "uh.." Sprout looked at her.
"heh, name's Aqua by the way.." the inteleon smiled
"Arceus might've told me what was up with you.." Pollo smirked.
"huh ..." Sprout was lost in his thoughts as a Charizard flew above, dangling a mistletoe above Sprout and Aqua.
"hehe.. you know what that means.." Aqua smirked
"h-hey wait!" Sprout blushed Deeply.
Pollo chuckles.. "Merry Christmas Sprout..."
Now..
Sprout was humming to himself while making a wooden statue.. 3 days till Christmas... his and Aqua's anniversary...
"Alright... just a little more and it should be done..." Sprout smiled as he looked at the wooden statue before hearing a knock
"uh-" Sprout immediately covered the wooden statue with a fabric covering as pollo walked in
"oh hey Sprout"
"hey pollo" Sprout sighed in relief
"uh what's that thing?.." Pollo pointed at the fabric sheet covering the wooden statue
"oh that.. that's just my gift to Aqua.." Sprout smiled "i plan on making something great for her since... she's my everything...." Sprout blushes a bit
"ah.. no wonder you two started dating so quickly.." Pollo chuckles a bit
Sprout lifted the cover and continued working on the statue
"oh wow..." Pollo was amazed..
"heh yeah, it's amazing alright.. before taking down problematic pokemon.. i used to carve wooden statues.. it didn't pay much.. but I enjoyed it.. "
Sprout was just about to scrape a big chunk of wood as he heard Aqua
"oh sh-" Sprout panicked and slipped with his blade.. striking the center of his hand "
"AHGH!-"
Sprout immediately grabbed the sheat and covered the statue with his bleeding hand
"oh crap!" Pollo immediately grabbed his phone
two days later...
Sprout sighed as he laid in his bed.. looking at the wrapping covering his stitches..."well this is just great... Unable to do anything with this hand for 14 days.... and right before Christmas..." Sprout soon froze as he overheard something from outside his room
" No present? well you better get lost"
Sprout froze as he recognized that voice... it was Aqua's..
Sprout's worry grew as he heard this... but was unable to do anything ..
A couple hours later
Sprout sighed, looking at the ceiling... then the wrapping around his arm .. "she deserves something...or I could lose her.." Sprout got up and looked at the clock... "2 hours till midnight... there's still time!" Sprout clenched his fists, ignoring the spike in pain he felt
he rushed to the garage, lifting the blood stained sheet, seeing the wooden statue.. "it's now.. or never...." Sprout picked up his tools and got to work, ignoring every once of pain he felt.. "must .. finish what... I started!!" Sprout gridded his teeth as the pain got worse.. "come on .." Sprout got closer to completion until he felt something become lose ... noticing his wrapping was looking a bit red... (the stitches!) Sprout decided to ignore it as he kept working, adding the most Minor details... as his wrapping became drenched... (ugh .. light ..headed... no .. I... can't stop now!)
Sprout kept pushing himself as his vision started to become blurry.... "yes!"
he was now... almost done... "one more thing..." as Sprout was about to make the final stroke with his blade ... his arm moved in the wrong direction.... slicing his other arm ...
"Aaaaaaaaaahgh!"
Sprout yelled in pain.. waking the others up as he looked at where the blade hit... "not... agai-" Sprout es out next to the finished wooden statue... of Aqua...
Later...
"ugh ..." Sprout woke up .. back at the hospital..
"Sprout what the fuck!? I thought you'd know better to not handle tools with that hand until it healed!" Pollo was fuming. "and you got yourself even more hurt...AND caused the stitches to undo themselves!"
"shut up Pollo!" Sprout clenched his fist "you don't know how it feels to have the chance to lose the pokemon you love just because you got them nothing for Christmas!" Sprout snarled
"Wait.. this is what this entire thing was about?" Aqua walked in
"you pushed yourself this far?.. just to make a gift.. for me?.." Aqua walked up to Sprout, rubbing his head "Sprout... you should've known... you're the greatest gift I could ask for.." Aqua softly hugged Sprout.. "
"but.. what you said..." Sprout looked up at her.. "I was referring to my Ex... he alwaa expected some kind of gift... and not just my presence or me covering myself with ribbons..." Aqua sighed.. "now please... don't hurt yourself like that again...I don't know what I'd do if I lost you.." Aqua tears up a bit..
Sprout started to tear up before hugging Aqua..
"heh... wasn't expecting Christmas to go like this but.. alright" Pollo chuckles before hugging the two..
