December 24th, sixteen years old.

The winter invaded Pallet Town, nonetheless in those times of the year, certain redhead always wished for a snowfall in his birthday.

“Silver, we’re only sixteen, we still have plenty birthdays to wait for snow…” he whispered for himself with a neutral manner. Then he directed his gaze to the two girls

“Y’know, Yellow” the brunette said calmly, not like her cold queen voice but with a caring warm tone that could only be compared to the orange rays that crowned the sunset in that bridge.

“What is it, Blue? Why you told Silver to leave us alone” the minor said glazing with the corner of her eyes the youth waiting for the two girls.

“I love you, like I love Silver, you are the little sister I always wanted in my life…” she said while playing with her hair. “That’s why I’m breaking up with Red next week, after New Year…” the one with sky like eyes only put her hair in the back of her ear and tienes toda see the smaller while the blond one just stared at her showing a mix of emotions in her face.

“I… why? But…” Yellow tried to say but she was defeated by her own feelings while being betrayed by her chords.

“You… you like him, right?” this time there were no movements for Blue’s part, only a question in the air. “Red?”

The thunder orbs were startled for a second, but then she realized the person she was talking, beautiful and graceful as a doll in the outside but an analytical cold minded computer in the inside, a woman only warm around those she loved.

“Yes.” she said with no hesitation, knowing that her secret was none to the major. “Red and I are…” she couldn’t finish before the taller one interrupted her.

“So… I just hope you don't…” Blue’s gaze fly away from Yellow to saw how Silver was patiently waiting for them. “Just don’t hurt… him, please. I could not bear watching the treasure I’ve been protecting all my life being hurt by you, Yellow.” with a loving smile she just fell her hand in the blond shoulder. “We shouldn’t keep the birthday boy, now we? Let us proceed.” always calm, always graceful but in her mind she could only pray for Silver’s happiness.

December 16th, nine years old.

The park wasn’t the man’s favorite place to spend time in his day off, but his son begged him to go to the park nearby. He sighed while taking out a cigarette but he stopped himself noticing the judging glances of the other parents, he thought how those people haven’t drove themselves into madness in a place filled with screaming children.

“Blue, Silver, don’t go too far, stay in the playground where I can see you!” yelled a man in trench coat to the two kids playing.

The two didn’t mind the adult and keep playing with Blue’s action figures.

“When I grow up, I want to be a white gloved thief, like one of those that Uncle Giovanni has in his books.” said happily the girl pretending that her doll was said criminal. “And my name will be… Jiggly!”

“I just want to be like Father…” the minor said shyly not really thinking about his answer, after all, he was watching a boy with a big hat in the swings.

The refreshing and almost cold breeze of the winter contrasted with the almost sunny day, but Silver hasn’t been paying attention to that details beside that boy who stood out in that setting. He was alone, he didn’t seem very happy, but Silver really was amazed how pretty the boy was and he remained curious about the big hat with the two feathers.

“Hey, pay attention to me, Silv.” the brunette girl said with an angry tone.

It felt funny, thought Silver, that boy was alone while playing sadly in the swings, he actually felt a little weird seeing that boy with a hat.

“What are you watching, Silv?” The girl said while looking at the swings. “The boy with the hat? That’s what you are seeing?” Blue questioned the smaller one. Silver only nodded. The girl took the boy’s hand and dragged him where to the swings, his metallic orbs were left with an startled look while following Blue understanding that he was weaker than the girl but when he realized where they were going he blushed fiercely.

“Hey, the one with the hat!” Blue said with her practiced joyful girl tone. That really startled Silver, the bravery of his friend to do anything with anyone always amaze him.

The boy saw them, he gave them a look Made by a mix of shock and curiosity,like being scared of something cute.

“My name is Blue!”a big bright smile and lending a hand in gesture of greeting, all of them planned just seconds ago in the girl’s mind.

The boy froze trying to think what to do, he was obviously nervous and the aggressive way of approach was quite intimidating for him.

“And I am…” the redhead tried to introduce himself, but he still felt the embarrassment trapped him like a blanket that suffocated all of his being. The one in the swings only stared shyly which only made the situation worse. The one of metalic eyes took a deep breath trying to calm himself. “I a-am… Silver… a pleasure to meet you.” he said fast and almost inaudible, but the boy with the hat was given a bit of courage thanks to the awkward ways of Silver.

“I’m Yellow, nice to meet you.” he said taking Blue’s hand.

.

March 3rd, seventeen years old.

“Birthdays are worse as time goes on.” He said sitting that dock at the river where his companion loved to fish.

“Why do you think that? I’m happy with you right now, Silver…” the words felt like a whisper for anyone, but for the boy, they felt like everything and that made him feel guilty.

“Gold and Crystal are having some relationship time, Sapphire is in Ruby’s fashion contest and Blue, Green and…” he hesitated “Red are in college.” he thought how the two men seek veterinary and how his best friend biology.

The silence reign for a while between the youths, just watching the stream of the water.

“But they are happy… and I’m happy thanks to that…” the blonde got up as she ended her sentence. She started walking out of the dock.

“Lies…” the redhead whispered copying Yellow. “You are not happy.” he grabbed her by her sleeve, he didn’t want to face her so Silver stayed watching the river while Yellow still faced the exit of the dock. They were facing opposite sides only being connected to that hand.

November 21th, twelve years old.

Quite strange, thought Silver, Blue’s room was always organized, it was almost shocking but this time it was a mess of clothes and accessories.

“So, what do you think?” said the brunette teen only wearing a bra in the top. “This one?” said putting in front of her a white blouse. “Or maybe this one?” now putting a black dress.

“The blouse.” answered Silver without hesitation just imagining the looks on his friend with that dress. “Why are you so worried about your looks, in any case?” the boy asked knowing how beautiful his companion was.

“Tomorrow is Green’s birthday party, one of my classmates, and he invited that guy I’ve talking about, Red.” the teen said happily.

“Red…” the red haired repeated almost hating the guy before knowing him, but he was just being protective.

June 1st, twenty years old.

“Are you ready?!” the crowd exploded as the singer shouted.

People jumping and trying to dance at the spinning multicolor strobe lights, Silver didn’t like that, but he was there for Blue.

“Yeah!” the brunette shouted while sitting the shoulders of the one with red eyes. “Come on, Red, higher!

“Blue you are hea…” the black haired youth tried to say, but was stopped by a kiss provided by the other brunette.

“Blue, you are tiring my boyfriend.” Green said but almost shouted by the screams of the people.

“It was my boyfriend first, I have right of seniority!” shouts mixed with laughs, as the whole concert was reflected in Blue, radiant and noisy. Red only blushed by the comments of the two.

Then, that song started.

A melancholic tone sounded, a reminiscence of a love that never happened, a voice that was quite but still full of emotion, slow instruments but still harsh, Yellow’s favorite song.

He couldn’t blame Blue or himself, he thought about the memories that triggered that band. After all, that band was Yellow’s favorite thanks to Blue.

Then, Silver smiled, look up and just let it all go in a sigh.

January 27th, thirteen years old.

“Hey, Silver…” the blonde teen asked to her companion.

“Yeah, Yellow.” he didn’t even bothered opening his eyes, he was comfortable just being recumbent like that in the roof of the house of his friend.

“You aren’t scared about… y'know, being alone?” Silver opened his eyes just at the hint of Yellow being troubled by something like that, she was far stronger than him, he thought.

“Not really.” he answered fast and simple. “The thought of being alone doesn’t really bothers me, but, it isn’t a big deal, after all I got you.” he added. He was already remembering his crush in Yellow when they were kids, he thought that the one with thunder in her eyes was pretty even when he was in the mistake that Yellow was a guy, he blushed just thinking about that.

Yellow looked at him with a dazzling smile that was decorated by the orange rays of the twilight.

“You’re right.” the youth laid down next to the youth of metallic eyes. “Maybe we don’t have the answers, but that’s okay…

August 28th, fifteen years old.

“Blue is late, again…” Silver said while changing Ferraligatr for Weavile seeing how Yellow choose Pikachu.

“She is with Red, isn’t it?” the teen said with a trembling noise in her voice.

She left the console and laid down in Silver’s bed, much to Silver’s disgust but he was losing, after all.

“Silver, what am I for you?” Yellow asked while the youth sit right next to her.

The thought mix his head, but the, the started thinking about the question.

She wasn’t asking him why he liked her or why did he harbor a crush for her. But Silver couldn’t really answer that, she was his friend, obviously, but there was something more he thought. Of course she was his first love, even when he thought she was a boy.

For Blue she was the little sister she always wanted.

For Red she was that strange friend who acted weird but always caring.

For Green she was some kind of apprentice.

But what was Yellow for him? Not only some love interest, a friend was rejected thanks to his feelings, he haven’t really expected a wonderful future with her, he really liked her, she was smart, caring, strong, beautiful, nice but at the end those words were not more than adjectives and he was digressing.

Yellow wasn’t a sibling like figure for Silver, nonetheless an apprentice, if she had a liking for him as she has for Red he knew, he knows her.

Still, just words, none of them could really wrap around what was that person, a dazzling smile and laughter but still delicate, a caring but strong willed gale which razed in him, but and most of all, she made him feel like he was everything and the thought of her liking Red made him feel like nothing.

“You are ev…” then he laid down keeping almost a perfect parallel, after all he wasn’t much taller than Yellow, he damned waiting for a growth spurt. He putted his arms in the pillow above him. Yellow mimicked the gesture letting her arm rest atop Silver’s connecting them by the wrists.

“You are my really dumb friend.” everything for me, he wanted to say.

Then she laughed.

March 3rd, seventeen years old.

“Silver, let me go.” a harsh tone, void of emotion.

“No.” an icy response, like he was convinced of what he was saying. “I want to be egoist.”

“Then be egoist with someone else…” she was done, Yellow knew that she made mistakes but she hoped that at least Silver let her he wrong.

“You confessed to Red, and nothing happened. Are you going to cling to that?” even more attacks, he didn’t want to do that, he didn’t want to be egoist but he was frustrated.

“What do you know about clinging into someone?!” she smacked his arm with her free hand and looked straight to her friend.

“More than you, that’s for sure…” he said while touching the sleeve of that red and black jacket Yellow gifted him.

“Yeah, because seeing your best friend being the girlfriend of the guy you like is compared to anything you could have, Silver!” those eyes, electric and menacing, almost threatening.

“Blue broke up with Red for you, and you know it, Yellow!” he yelled, the monotone voice broke, he broke. “And he ended being Green’s boyfriend!” silence.

They crossed looks, no one knew that, only he and Blue. They decided to not tell Yellow.

Then, the blonde ran away.

December 24th, fourteen years old.

Alone, he thought. Changing channels mindlessly of the television wasn’t helping, just the blank noise of the device didn’t help the loneliness accented by the monochromatic living room.

Blue was in Sevii Islands traveling with her parents and his father was busy with his work.

Silver was quite comfortable being alone, at least most of the time, but in holidays and in his birthday was another case, back alone like when he was just a child and Giovanni worked all day and haven’t met Blue.

The door knocked and snapped out him from his thoughts.

He ran toward the door to find Yellow behind it.

21th May, seventeen years old.

“Silv…” the brunette said quietly.

“I know, Blue…” he said in a false monotone voice. While making him comfortable in his bed.

“You know Yellow’s leaving today, still you choose to stay here!” the young adult snapped at seeing her friend not doing anything.

“It’s not a big big deal…”

“Your friend is leaving without you saying goodbye!” now she was screaming.

“We fought, she doesn’t want to see me…”

“That’s it?”

December 24th, fourteen years old.

“Hey, I brought you some food!” the teen claimed happily while entering the house. “Uncle Wilton let me spend the night with you, since I told him that you were alone” she explained while showing a bag full of tupperwares with food while managing to something with her free hand.

“Oh, that’s very thoughtful, thanks.” he answered quietly while taking the bag and closing the door.

“So, what’s better than seeing trash movies alone, in the dark, in your scary house?” the blonde commented while still keeping something from Silver in her back.

“All of that with you?” he asked mildly curious about his friend antics.

21th May, seventeen years old.

“That was cruel of you, Silver” the brunette confessed harshly.

“I was very full of myself in that moment, and since then we haven’t talked.” he admitted.

“Full of yourself? Dude, you were mean with her, even I admit that knowing that my ex-boyfriend and best friend are dating is harsh, in any case, yeah, you were mean while confessing your six years old crush on her.” the teen was confused, he didn’t had a crush for that long, he thought that he was Blue’s best friend and…

“I never confessed to her…” he said quietly.

“What?”

“I never said anything to Yellow about how I feel for her…” he came to that realization, he didn’t confessed.

“So you are just letting Yellow go, might not seeing her in years, without her knowing why you did all of that?”  Blue scolded her friend.

“No…” he got up from the bed and grabbed that jacket Yellow gifted him. “Got your motorcycle, sis?”

“I thought you’d never ask, bro!

24th December, fourteen years old.

“Merry christmas!” Yellow said while handing Silver the present she kept hiding from him.

“Very funny, thanks, anyway.” he opened the present to see a black and red jacket.

“When I saw it I thought that it was made for you, Silver.” the blonde said happily while the red haired one try the cloth.

“It’s too big for me…” the teen said looking how it didn’t fit at all.

“You’ll grow, I mean, your father is quite tall… so… it was the last one, you know…” she lost herself as she give his friend a hug. “Happy birthday!”

Silver reciprocated the hug, but, it esa strange.

Yellow was always for him in that ways, weirdly quirky she showed while not knowing how to answer stuff that embarrassed her, caring like he was thinking of him about that jacket that he loved, strong how every time she saw Blue with Red she wanted to think that she was happy for their relationship, but and most of all, she cared. She didn’t thought that Silver’s antics were a mask, she was happy to see him being as he liked.

That’s when it hitted Silver.

He always thought of Yellow like a messiah or someone celestial, and that wasn’t farfetched she was a wonderful person, and that line fall of, he also thought that Yellow was awful pretty but that wasn’t the real point.

He liked Yellow for caring about him and the others.

He liked Yellow for being strong to keep him and the others.

He liked Yellow for being a good person who always tried her best.

He liked Yellow for being fun, weird, innocent, intelligent, caring and the best person he met.

He liked Yellow because she accepted him and likes him anyway.

He liked Yellow.

“Thanks for the gift…” I like you, he wanted to say.

21th May, seventeen years old.

“Yellow!” he yelled while entering the airport, he knew it was wrong, even knowing how big it was he didn’t care anymore, he needed this.

He ran off the way Blue told him she was going, still yelling her name. Then, he saw that hat and the beautiful long blond hair sticking out.

“Yellow!” feelings, all of his emotions, they were bare in that moment. Yellow look up to him, her eyes watered by seeing her friend.

“Silver…” she didn’t know what to do, just stay there watching and wanting to say something but nothing was there to say.

“I like you, I always liked you, you are smart, brave, funny, strong, amazing, caring, thoughtful… there aren’t enough words or time to say everything, but know that I like you, and I wanted you to know that” she ran to him and ended everything with a hug.

July 2nd, twenty years old.

A moonlit black starless night in that bridge, Silver laughed at himself for being that sentimental.

“You are late…” the youth said to his arriving companion.

“Sorry, Lance and I lost track of the time.” the blonde answered heartily.

“Lance the “not a serious deal” guy, Yellow?” he questioned her mockingly.

“You goof… where’s Blue anyway?” grabbed the taller one’s arm.

“She had to buy some books, you know, biology and evolution stuff, but she said we could met at my house…” the red haired started walking not minding how the one with yellow orbs hanged from his arm.

“Yeah, I get it, medicine school is quite hard to me…

“That’s because you are dumb, Yellow…” they laughed.

A strong wind rushed in their area, leaves flown, everything felt like it moved by their own, then, Yellow’s hat flow away from her head, Silver tried to grab it. The weight shifted into the side were the smaller one was hanging, his leg gave up and let the two of them landing in the floor, fast enough Silver put Yellow in a position to let her being above him

They looked at each other, and laughed. And Silver was happy with that.
