In Your Spotlight ✔

1k+ reads!?

The setting is a beautiful, large theater. 
The audience is filled with cardboard cut out people. 

The dim lights shine on the stage, revealing a short figure wearing an extravagant red kings cape.

"Greetings, Larry here." The sultry voice fills the room. In the Pikachu's mind, the people are cheering his name.  

"Ahh, yes, yes, I know. You're all so excited to see me."
A Pichu waddles over to him and hands him a deck of cards.
 
"Ahh! My book has reached one thousand reads!? Hahahaha! Of course, it has, Pichu! It is MY book."
 
A very grumpy looking Primarina glares at him, "Last time I checked you're not on the cover."
 
"Pfft! Tell Miracle to change it."
 
"She made a whole book just for you!"
 
"It's not enough for this king!" He yells, "I say we get rid of the dumb Primarina! Change this book to 'Larry's Spotlight!' Make me the main character! How does that sound?" Pichu gives him a thumbs up and he nods, "I've taught her well."
 
The blue-eyed Pikachu leaps up onto the podium and taps the mic, "Good evening, everybody. Truly sorry you had to hear me arguing with this peasant." 

The Primarina's hazel eyes burn with anger.
She's trying her hardest not to rip his head off.

"Oops. Looks like I made her mad," He says sarcastically.
 
"Larry-" She begins to say before being met with a Thunderbolt.

"Isabelle, shut up!" Larry stomps his foot down, "This is my show! Now." He pulls out the cards that Pichu gave him, "I have some people I would like to thank. Larry, Larry, Larry, Larry, and Larry. And last but not least, Larry."
   
The Pikachu smiles smugly then throws the cards in the air; making a huge mess.

"Chase!" A female voice can be heard from the other side of the stage, "I told you to lock him up in a cage!"

A small boy with light brown puffy hair dashes out on stage. He scoops up the Pikachu and runs around with him on his head, "I'm sorry! He must've got out."

"Ugh! He ruined everything!" The girl sobs.

The boy rolls his eyes and cleans up the cards, setting them neatly on the podium.
He waits for the girl to come out from backstage.

"Well, get out here." The boy crosses his arms

Her sobbing stops, "Uhhhh, I can't."

"Because of the dress?"

"Yu-"

He pulls her out onto the stage. 
Now all the cardboard people can see her.
 
Spooky.

Chase hands her the cards, "Read them."

She smiles weakly, "Uhh, uhh, My name is Miracle."

The Primarina face palms, "Sweet Arceus." She waddles off the stage, clearly ungrateful for her trainer writing a book about her salty butt.

"DON'T BE A CHICKEN!" Chase screams.

Miracle smacks the boy then places her hand on her hip, "Shut it, you. I'm warming up."

She hands the cards to Chase, "Those all say Larry on them by the way. He would be the last person I would thank."

Larry crosses his arms and pouts.

She takes a deep breath then claps her hands together, "Alright I'm gonna scream out some names and you're all gonna go to their profiles and spam them!" (Don't do that).

First up is...hehe Sydney aka: the biggest dork that ever dorked. 
Sydthelawyerkid there you go. You can spam her 'cause she called Zinnia shit and nobody calls her that!
Yes, I am still salty about it!
I will never EVER let it go! 
(I got triggered).
Anyways, if you're wondering why this dork is here it's because she created Larry who is honestly my favorite character...I love him!
Don't tell him that.
That and she's just amazing! We have so many wacky conversations that eventually end up here, it's pretty amazing.   
Love ya, Sydney, keep being salty. ❤❤
 
When I began writing this story, only one person voted. That person is herozen3. They've been here since the very beginning! 
You have no idea how good this made me feel; that someone actually liked my story. Even when I began to question if it was good enough, they told me that I was doing good.  
I think that's actually when I started taking risks and straying away from the main storyline of the game. Doing that was a lot of fun and I owe it all to you, herozen3.

Next is someone who doesn't really comment but, I see them voting a lot. Codename-Decidueye; you don't really talk much, huh? 
But, back on track, I really do appreciate all of the votes, that's more than enough support. 

BerryIcymoon She's a newcomer, but I'm pretty sure she voted on all of my chapters and got me to 100+ votes. I honestly thought Wattpad was broken when I saw all of the notifications. Anyways, she's pretty cool (hehe I'm funny). And from what I can tell she's super sweet and supportive, so be nice to her. I really am grateful for the support makes me feel all warm and happy inside. Oh, and I really like your comments, they make me smile.

And that's it! I'm done! Nobody else to thank! Bye bye!

Miracle throws the cards in the air and smiles.

Chase frowns, "Uhh, are you sure?"

"Yes, child. I'm sure."

They stand there in silence until Miracle winks and sticks her tongue out, "Gotcha."

"Got who?"

"I'm sure he knows," She says before slamming her hands down on the table, "Listen up, Hero! If you and I are going to be rivals, you have to get used to me pulling your leg every once in a while."

"Heroooo?"

Miracle rolls her eyes, "Child! Let me talk!"

Chase frowns and lowers his head, "I'm sowwy."

She sighs and ruffles his hair, "It's fine."

HeroGreninja11 did you enjoy my little trick? I know I liked it. Anyways onto why I'm writing this. One of the coolest people on this app/website. Why do I want to get better at writing romance? Because Hero inspired me and I wanted to try it. Now, I'm not one to get sappy so I won't say much. Just know that you inspire me, and I'm really glad that I got to meet and talk to you. But enough of this   sappiness! We're still rivals, and I expect nothing but the best from you, soldier!

"I think you need to stop." Chase whispers.

"Don't tell me what to do, peasant."

Well, that's everyone. Actually everyone this time. If I missed someone it's either because I forgot or because you're a silent reader (someone who never comments or votes).
I can't thank you for the support if I don't even know you're there.

Writing In Your Spotlight has been great. I've been able to meet so many people and improve my writing drastically. I really am so thankful. I never thought I would get this far or make so many friends.

I love you guys.

Your forgetful Phanpy, Miracle.

(P.S. Larry is here too! My thanks means much more than Miracle's ever could! Kisses! See you next time. Let's go, Pichu.)
