Red like roses... Gelatin x Lollipop

Requested by really_unfunny

Plot: Gelatin and Lollipop have been dating for a while, and Lollipop is trying to comfort Gelatin after he lost BFB.

Lollipop's POV

I plucked a rose from the earth. A beautiful one, with petals softer than silk, and more gorgeous than Aphrodite. Red like blood, but gentle like a summer breeze.

Red like roses...

My boyfriend, Gelatin, lost BFB. Hopefully this rose will help him feel better.

I was very confident that he would win. Gelatin against Flower? She may have developed, but no one should forget how she has been all these years. But the voters chose her, not Gelatin.

And now he's sad.

Seeing my amazing boyfriend sad hurts a lot. It is truly heart-aching to see him distraught...

So I've made a plan. I'm going to be a good girlfriend, and comfort him. Starting with the perfect rose. Though...the rose isn't as perfect as Gelatin~

Nevermind. I can point out so many flaws of him, but so can I for everyone. I am great at finding flaws.

Though, I shouldn't bother Gelatin about his. Not for now, at least.

I walked back to a house I shared with him, approaching a light brown oak door, trimmed with a forest green color. Grasping the knob firmly, I twisted it, opening the door.

As I walked inside, I saw Gelatin, sitting on a black leather couch, wrapped up in blankets containing an assortment of colors. Red, yellow, purple, you name it. It was there.

"Hey Gelatin, I'm back~" I informed the depressed dessert, hiding the rose behind my back. "And I brought you something~"

He looked at me, wiping away tears. Ones that I knew would make him soggy. "Sorry babe, I'm really not up for anything right now..."

Holding a silver fork, he dug into a half-eaten container of chocolate icecream, consuming it, bite by bite.

Wait, that's the icecream I bought for myself!

Whatever.

"Gelatin," I began, sitting next to him on the leather couch. "I understand that you're sad about not winning BFB, but...think about it this way. You came very close to victory! And you played a very good game, almost winning! I'm proud of you..."

I gently held his hand with mine, the same one that had the rose, and gave him ownership of it. "Here. I found this beautiful rose, and I thought of you~"

He blushed lightly, inspecting the rose in his hand. "W-Wow, thanks Lolli..."

Then he pulled me closer to him, and nuzzled into me.

"But I think it better represents you~"

"Oh really?~"

We cuddled for a few hours, enjoying each other's company.

My love for him...

Red like roses...
