Happy Valentines Day! I wrote a short one shot for this special occasion for my favorite ship, soulsilvershipping!

Disclaimer: I'll let you figure it out if I own Pokemon or not.

"I lost, I can't believe it," Silver said "I will get stronger, and one day I will defeat you," Boom! "As soon as the storm passes of course." He looked over at the girl next to him, she was still sopping wet. She didn't respond to his comment, or to the fifty other ones he had said over the past hour. Her name was Lyra, she was the Johto league champion, she was quiet but a tough battler. Right before the storm he had challenged her to a battle; her pokemon wiped the floor with his. She had really grown as from when they met after he stole his first pokemon. Even back then she was able to defeat him. He watched her fight her way through gym battles and team rocket, he has seen her grow and mature, and become a better person; pokemon can do that to you. He had always admired her, but he'd never be able to admit it. Maybe he would do it today considering what day it was.

She didn't know how to say it, it would be the perfect time, they were alone in the pokemon center stuck there till the storm let up. She didn't know how he did it; Silver could say what was on his mind without a second thought. She on the other hand was too shy to tell him anything, she the pokemon league champion was to afraid to tell Silver her feelings. When she met him over two years ago standing under the window at professor Elm's house, she didn't know it would lead to this. Maybe she could tell him today, and she knew how she would do it.

She reached for her bag and pulled out a box decorated with small hearts and spoke the first words to him all day, "Want one?" He looked up she held out a solitary heart-shaped candy out to him. He stared at it for a minute and nodded. He grabbed it and read the little saying printed on it, I love you! He thought for a moment then popped the candy into his mouth. He didn't get what she was saying, but she wouldn't give up and she handed another out to him. He took the candy and read the new saying, Want to go out? He popped it into his mouth and leaned back without a second thought. Her hopes vanished.

"Can I have another one?" Silver asked.

"Sure," she mumbled and handed him the whole box to him. He poured a few out and looked through them carefully. He picked one up and handed it to her. She looked puzzled but accepted it. She looked at the saying on the heart, and her heart skipped a beat, it read: Yes.
