“I-I don’t mind if they l-look squished, what matters is t-the effort that you exerted to get them for me. T-thank you,” she began, hiccupping herself back to some measure of sanity as she then took the bouquet of roses into her left hand. “I don’t care if they’re different; it’s the gesture that makes it all the more sweeter,” she added with a sagely nod, before wiping off as much tears as she could, and then trying to make herself more presentable at that particular moment.
“I… I hope you take the time to enjoy the ch-chocolates,” she added with another hiccup, before taking the box of chocolates that came along with his bouquet as well.
“Never really did understand why people are fussing over that particular day,” she muttered a few moments later; because she could totally imagine the scenario that he’d gone up against—a literal crush and mountain of people trying to get the best picks of the bunch without spending a lot of money for it. “A-anyway, the thing I wanted to tell you… do you r-really want to know?” she continued, hoping that her courage didn’t fail her again if he’d ask about it himself…!

Josh smiled a bit at her response. He was glad she loved them, even if they were a little squished and unruly. It wasn't what he had been hoping to get her, but it worked. He was happy that she liked them, at least, despite the circumstances, and even if her own gifts were better. "I'm sure I'll enjoy yours just fine" He answered with a small smile, messing with her hair a bit. "As for what you wanted to tell me..." He began, scratching his head.
What could be so important that it made her run off? He couldn't wrap his head around it. And he was incredibly curious.... But yet...
"... You know what? You can tell me when you're ready. I won't rush you" He would respond with a smirk crossing his lips. "I just want you to be comfortable, whatever it might be. I don't wanna force it out of you" He said.

Izumi then looked up, blinking. She was taken aback by what he was saying before finally falling silent—so it was alright for her not to come out with the confession now, and it would be fine to wait until she felt comfortable with telling him what it was she wanted to say?! The tension that had been building up inside of her seemingly melted away; and she finally let out a long sigh of relief—without realizing that she’d been holding it in all that time!
“A-are you s-sure about that?” she began, in response to his last statement. “I-I mean, if it’s alright with you, then I’ll wait until I’m more comfortable with saying what I wanted to tell you at a future time…” she stammered out after a few more moments of silence.
In any case, she then hitched up the bouquet of roses in her left hand, while trying to balance the box of somewhat squished chocolates in her right. “I-I included a letter with the chocolates I made… hope you get to read it,” she added in a quieter tone, once the initial awkwardness had passed. Now that she was free to tell him whatever it was that she’d been trying to say (since earlier) without getting too swept up and feeling all rushed, she let out another sigh of relief, before attempting to wipe the rest of her face down, because who knew that she’d be letting out a literal deluge of frustration when she’d bolted from Josh in the first place?
Now that the awkward situation was smoothed over, she then attempted to hug him again (loaded arms permitting) but ended up only smooshing herself against his taller, leaner body, arms currently occupied with the gifts that she was now trying to balance without having them all spill out of her hands again. “Oh… that reminds me…” she began, suddenly remembering something rather important.

The blonde would smile faintly. "Well.. Honestly, Zu... I am curious. I really am. But... I'd rather you be comfortable in telling me whatever it is you gotta talk about, because it's obviously important to you. Besides, I'd rather you not run off on me again" He would snark with a chuckle. He smiled as she would try and hug him again, and he responded, despite full arms, by hugging her tight and nuzzling her cheek gently, a small show of affection that would probably make Izumi's cheeks flash crimson. Alas, he would curiously release the hug before deciding to open the letter to read it. As he read it, he would eye her when she mentioned remembering something important. "Hm?" He would respond curiously, tilting his head. She had his full undivided attention. Not the Pikachu's though, the easily distracted Pikachu was sniffing flowers nearby. Typical Lightning, of course.

Now that she was secretly relieved that she didn’t have to pressure herself in telling him what had been bothering her for the longest time, she then felt her lips pull back up into a smile. It wasn’t one of the usual cackling ones that had her sassing him a few seconds later; but a softer kind of smile that obviously relayed the relieved feeling that was now coursing through her.
“Oh… it’s nothing. I think I may have found you something that you’ll find very surprising… but I’d rather give it to you another day. For n-now… enjoy the chocolates I made. I don’t know if you’re a-allergic to nuts or almonds or anything, just… just have at them,” she remarked; finally releasing the breath that she was holding for the longest time and finally looking up at him again.
If there was anyone watching the scene, the two would soon hear some ‘awws’ and ‘Isn’t that sweet’ kind of mutterings rising from the crowd; and it was only then she looked around and saw that there were people… there were people watching their little exchange! Oh, shit! I forgot that we’re in a public place! Oh boy… she thought to herself before chuckling softly and continuing, “Uhhh… J? You want to go somewhere a bit more private after this? P-people are starting to watch us,” she stammered as softly as she could manage; before hiding her face in his chest again—her hands still loaded down with the flowers and the box of chocolates.
She thought she caught a flash of yellow that had gone over to sniff at the bouquet of roses; but it was just Lightning, trying to keep himself busy.

The blonde took a steady breath in relief as he saw that Izumi had begun to calm down. Good, the crying had begun to cease for now, he'd done what he had wanted to do. He still wondered what bothered her, but... Well, he was sure she'd tell him soon enough, as she mentioned. But why had it caused her to run off and start crying? He ran his fingers through her hair playfully, just teasing her a bit. Josh would begin to read the note, which the writer never actually mentioned what was on it, before Izumi brought up some kind of gift. He would tilt his head curiously... What was the crazy gal going on about now? Regardless, he did notice the staring. He supposed they had made quite the commotion with the sobbing girl running off like a rejected bride. "Uh... Yeah" He muttered toward her as he looked around, before getting to his feet. He would smile down at her, before motioning for her to bag her gifts as he would gently put her gifts to him into his own massive pack, that had been used for holding the gifts he was giving her previously. Once that was squared, he would let Lightning climb onto his shoulder, before holding out his hand to Izumi and gently taking it once her arms weren't full. He would lace his fingers through hers before walking off to go talk in private.
