Requested by Raven332
This'll probably be the last part two I make in a while. After this, I have one more one-shot to make before I get started on the requested ones. I know I said that I would work on them in the holidays, but a total of 34 requests came in like less than a week and a lot of stuff came up when I was in China so I wasn't able to write. I'm really sorry about this delay, but I promise that I'll do my best to write as many as possible.
Also I reread the first part and I'm horrified, how in the world did you guys actually liked that? Anyway I reread it once and I definitely don't want to go through the torture again so sorry for any continuity issues that may appear?
Also, Valentines Day is approaching so I'm gonna be a proper Wattpad author and exploit this event :D

『 Comrades 』
[Name] - Third Person
"Boo!" [Name] shouted, dropping down from the tree just as Erik walked past. He rolled his eyes playfully at her antics.
"Heard you coming from a mile away," he told her, hands tucked into the pockets of his jacket.
The girl opposite him pouted in retaliation, and ended up rushing to catch up when he walked past without sparing her a glance. "Aw, I thought I really had you that time,"
"You never will, your heart's too loud,"
"Well I'm sorry for being alive," she muttered, placing a finger to her chin as she started thinking of new ideas. A slight smirk tugged on Erik's lips at her words.
"Jumping out of water will only earn you a cold," he said out of nowhere.
"I told you to stop that!" [Name] whined, roughly punching his bicep. Erik didn't so much as flinch at the contact, which only made her pout more. "Do that again and I'm breaking up with you."
"You've said that before didn't happen did it?" the Dragon Slayer immediately retorted, swinging an arm around her shoulder to bring her closer.
She rolled her eyes playfully as she concentrated on closing off her mind to him. "We'll I'm really mad this time, but I'll let you off I suppose,"
"Oh?"
"For a fee of course," [Name] sang, leaning her head slightly on his shoulder. "And you won't be able to get in my head this time~"
Erik's eyes narrowed at her as he attempted (and failed) to figure out what she was implying. He barely paid attention to their surroundings as they got closer and closer to the camp.
"What do you want?"
She faked a gasp. "You don't know what tomorrow is?"
"That's why I'm asking genius,"
[Name] snickered as she quickly slipped away from him, moving out of his grasp. Erik, on the other hand frowned slightly at the giant grin on her face. "Then that's for me to know and you to find out," she told him whilst pulling a face before she ran away.
"Oi!" Erik ran after her, but he was a late to grabbing her. She had already started dragging her brother in the opposite direction. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "If you're trying to be sneaky, don't."
"Hey hey, don't snap at me just because you had a squabble with [Name]," Sorano defended with a mischievous smile.
"We weren't fighting or doing anything of the sort,"
"Oh was it?" she snickered into her hand. "I thought that you might have broken up, in fact, I'm surprised that it hasn't happened yet given how utterly unromantic you are."
"What would you know about our relationship?"
"I may not have your ears, but I have eyes you know," the white haired girl snarked back. "It's really sad when the girlfriend has to ask for a kiss when it should be a natural occurrence."
"Shut up, that was one time and she was being whiney,"
"Then there's the fact that you don't act like a boyfriend. Does the 14th of Febuarary ring a bell?"
"Yeah, it follows the 13th of Febuary. So what?" Erik rolled his eyes. "If you aren't gonna be helpful then leave me be."
"But I am very helpful!" Sorano protested with a pout. "It's you who doesn't understand! The 14th of February is Valentines Day, how could you not know?"
"Is this so called Valentines Day meant to be special or something?"
The whited haired girl found herself blinking at him with a deadpan. "You're kidding right?"
"No,"
"Well then, I will take it on myself to tell you," she declared with extravagant hand movements. She then paused bmfor dramatic effect, but the glare Erik send her made her continue quicker than planned. "Valentines Day is the day you declare your undying love to your lover. You give gifts to each other and spend time together."
"So that's what she was talking about," he muttered to himself, digging his hands further into his pocket.
"Mhm, since its your first Valentines, you have to give her a whole lot of gifts," Sorano nodded with a mischievous smile. "Including chocolate, flowers and others."
"The first part was a lie,"
"Eh? How did you..."
"I have eyes you know," Erik snared back as he left for the village once again.

The next day, [Name] woke up in the girls' tent to a pile of small boxes at the foot of her sleeping bag. She could only squeal with delight, causing both Meredy and Sorano to shoot up with a start. Both girls haphazardly raised their arms in a fighting pose, looking around with drooped eyes for an intruder.
"Huh?" Meredy blinked, rubbing her eyes in confusion at the stack. "Was that always there?"
"What are you talking--" Sorano stared for a second before it finally regesiter. "No way! I thought he ignored me yesterday!"
"He's so cute!" [Name] gushed, hugging onto her pillow and dancing around.
"That's definitely not how I would describe him..."
"I mean... We can't really say anything can we..."
"I'll give him that then, more boyfriend material than any of those other guys,"
"But still definitely not the best,"
"You said it,"
[Name] ignored what they said about her boyfriend, still in a happy mood at the fact that Erik had given her so much. She was so in a daze, that she barely noticed Meredy and Sorano working together to sort out her gifts. Barely.
"Hey! Those are mine!" the girl pouted, throwing her pillow at Sorano, who moved her head to the side and let it whiz past her.
Meredy let out a whistle after seeing an expensive looking box, completely ignoring [Name]. "Where did he even find all of this?"
"Fine then, you can have some inexpensive chocolates but nothing else," [Name] pouted as she dressed. "Because the both of you are so sad and single."
"Oi!"
She stuck her tongue out at the both of them before leaving the tent with a bounce in her step. Outside, she found the guys of Crime Sorcière chatting admidly as they prepared breakfast.
Macbeth noticed her and was the first person to bring her scream up.
"What happened? We could hear your fuss from out here,"
"Nothing," [Name] only grinned as she skipped towards Erik, who watched as she came closer. "Erik was being cute. I found a pile of Valentines Day presents today!" she happily announced much to Erik's dismay.
And that cued the teasing from everyone else, well, mostly Sawyer. With every comment made about how wrapped around [Name]'s finger he was, he turned more and more pink to the point where he faced away from them all. But his girlfriend could clearly see his embarrassed state and giggled into her hand.
"Come on, let's get away from them," she offered, dragging him along behind him. He could be so shy sometimes about the things he would do for her. "There's nothing to be embarrassed about, I'm really happy!"
Erik only scoffed at her words, letting her link her arms through his. "You didn't need to announce it to all of them,"
"Hm? But I wanted to show off for you. Since you can actually keep a girlfriend," [Name] made sure to say extra loudly so that everyone behind them could hear. "Unlike a certain group of losers I know! Looking straight at you Sawyer!"
"That wasn't very nice [Name]!" they heard him yell back, but paid no mind.
"Ne, let's go into town tonight,"
"You went there yesterday," Erik pointed out, but didn't protest in the slightest.
"Didn't you see? There's going to be a festival tonight,"
"Oh, that's what it was,"
"Gee, you're really clueless sometimes," [Name] smiled. "I need to buy an outfit..."
"Why?"
"It's a date silly, I can't be wearing my normal everyday clothes," she chided, happily swaying from side to side.
"I don't understand it when you're like this," Erik rolled his eyes, using his free hand to poke her gently on the forehead. "I don't care for things like that as long as its you."
Her cheeks flushed pink in response and she hid her face in his shoulder.
"T-Then I guess I don't need too..." she muttered uncharacteristically as they walked along. "Jeez, this wasn't meant to happen..."
