"Yaaaaawnnn"

There's nothing to do today, Natie said we are going to have a break on the fifth day of practice. I'm just taking a walk on the latest floor of the mall, looking around for chiks or something, got bored of my gameಠ⁠_⁠ಠ.

"Oiii, Mateo" someone whispered my name

I looked to my right, there is Marc, Elyzer, James, and Blake hiding behind those fake bush things. I went to them and joined them to hide.

"Is there something?" I asked

Marc put both of his hands on my shoulders.

"It's good that you are here, because if not, you are going to miss the most legendary moment in history✧⁠\⁠(⁠>⁠o⁠<⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠✧" he said to me

"What is the 'legendary moment in history?ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ" I asked again

Marc let go of his hands on my shoulders and made me face somewhere.

"You see those over there?" Blake joined in

I cleared my eyes and took a closer look.... It is..... Jayden and... Nova.... IT IS FUCKING JAYDEN AND NOVA w⁠(⁠°⁠ｏ⁠°⁠)⁠w. Both of them are having a diner outside the famous restaurant.

"Ohohohohoho♪⁠～⁠(⁠´⁠ε⁠｀⁠ ⁠), wait a minute, why didn't you all call me in the first placeಠ⁠︵⁠ಠ? I might miss this masterpiece if I didn't go here!"

"We are sorry okay(⁠๑⁠•⁠﹏⁠•⁠), we forgot about you" Elyzer said

"Oh c'mon(⁠ノ⁠｀⁠Д⁠´⁠)⁠ノ⁠彡⁠┻⁠━⁠┻, never forget about me or my name, mostly that I want my family to be famous" I replied

We looked closely, Jayden's face looked like he was nervous, his legs shaking. Both of them are laughing.

*Tsuk tsuk tsuk tsuk tsuk*

The others are taking pictures of them, I also took out my phone and took a lot of pictures. We went closer to them without getting noticed, some people looked at us with question looks.

"Hey , uhhhh⊙⁠﹏⁠⊙, I have something to say to you" Jayden said to Nova

"Wait a minute(⁠・⁠o⁠・⁠), is this it? Is Jayden really going to propose?" James said

"All of you, take all of your cameras out and record it just to make sure" Elyzer said

We started recording

"Wha... What is it?(⁠๑⁠•⁠﹏⁠•⁠)" Nova replied

We saw Jayden clear his throat, he then held Nova's hand higher.

"Wait a minute, what is that move!?" Elyzer said

"Hold on, hold on, let him cook first" I said

"What is Jayden going to do?" Blake said

Jayden's face is trying to gain his courage, he holds Nova's hand tightly.

"Will you(⁠๑⁠•⁠﹏⁠•⁠)... Will you be my girlfriend!"

........ Our eyes are full of shock(⁠●⁠_⁠_⁠●⁠), romantic excitment shook over my body. My mouth opened on it's own.

"YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAA-!!!!!(⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)"

Elyzer closed my mouth and Blake's mouth after yelling, my heart pounded faster, I am seeing really, really, REALLY, legendary moments... Of..... Our... History.

"Shhh shhh sh sh" Elyzer hushed us

The others hid, they made big smiles on their faces. People around us looked at us, we stayed quiet, overhearing their conversation.

"Uhhhhh, hmmmmm, uhhhhhh, yes, I will be your girlfriend(⁠๑⁠•⁠﹏⁠•⁠)" we heard Nova's voice

"Mmmmmmmm!!!!"

Blake and I tried to shout but our mouth was still covered by Elyzer's. I could see tears coming out of their eyes, mine too, this is just..... Too wholesomeಥ⁠_⁠ಥ.

"Hey guys, they are going somewhere" James said

We took a peek at them again, they're plates on the tables are empty.

"Let's follow themಡ⁠ ͜⁠ ⁠ʖ⁠ ⁠ಡ" Marc said

All of us sneaked, following them somewhere, they looked like they are heading to an arcade.

"We are still heading in there" Elyzer said

"But what if we get caught?" Marc asked

"We will just say "Oh, good to see both of you", try to hide your nervousness like you are finding something to pay" Blake said

We partnered ourselves into 2 and 3. Marc, James, and Elyzer, then me and Blake. We went inside and separated. While looking around for them, I am sensing something, something so familiar that I don't want to feel

I looked up straight, people walking past Blake and I were shocked or surprised faces.

"Wow, those eyes are cool and realistic!(⁠°⁠o⁠°⁠) My I have a picture?"

A girl approached us and said to the both of us. What does she mean by our eyes? Both of us just nodded. The girl took out her phone and came close to us for a selfie, we joined in..... Uh oh, our eyes are full of hearts(♡_♡⁠)..... Just like the day we practice.

"Say cheese!"

I regained my consciousness nice and smiled on the camera.

"I am going to add this to my collection! Are you both cosplayers?"

"No"

"Okay, thank you for the picture"

The girl continued our way, Blake and I exchanged glances. Our eyes have changed into a realistic beautiful beating heart. I looked at both of my arm, they are not charged.

"Is it really okay to show this on public? The only think I know to remove this is to wait a lot of minutes for it to be gone" Blake said

"I don't know, but let's just say to them, we are cosplayers" I replied

We continued to walk to find the 2 couples but people around crowded us to take a picture of our big hearts in our eyes.

"Wow, you guys are seriously cute!"

"Can I have a photo too?"

"OMG, you're like real-life emojis!"

People were crowding around us, showering us with compliments and selfie requests. Blake and I just kept nodding and smiling awkwardly.

"Dude, this is getting out of hand," Blake whispered

"What do we do?" I asked

Just then, someone tapped Blake's shoulder. It was a girl with a bright pink backpack and a vibrant smile. She looked at us, her eyes wide with wonder.

"You guys are the coolest cosplayers ever! I saw both of you on Cosplay Central going viral! You guys are so popular!"

What the, Cosplay what? And popular?ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ We were just saw by them a few minutes ago.

"Cosplay Central?" Blake asked

"Yeah! The 'Heart-Eyed' cosplayers! You're everywhere! Everyone's talking about both of you" she replied.

Suddenly, a wave of panic washed over us. We had no idea about any TikTok video or "Heart-Eyed" cosplayer!

Oh hell naw, well, yes, I'll get popular but not in my name. I looked to my right, I saw Jayden holding Nova, like he is holding Nova because Nova is going to slip down. My romantic excitment filled my body. Hayyy, this is so 'kakakilig' to see.

"Woooooow!(⁠・⁠o⁠・⁠), you can also do that too?" The girl asked me

I turn back to her

"What do you mean?" I asked

Blake looked at, his face turned into a surprised reaction(⁠☉⁠｡⁠☉⁠)⁠!

"Bro! Your body is floating with hearts! Like there are tiny floating hearts coming out of you!" Blake said

The girl turned around and raised her phone for a selfie.... Wait a minute, they are not lying, there really ARE tiny floating hearts coming out of my body.

"This is so realistic! How can you do it? Your friend here looked pretty shocked(⁠ツ⁠)" the girl said

I looked above me, there are hearts popping up above me. I looked back again at Jayden and Nova, they are gone. People around started to record us.

"It is, uhhhhh, a secret you know. Magicians don't and never reveal their secrets" I replied

The girl's face is full of disappointment. She went closer to me and smelled me.

"Why are you smelling me!"

"When I got near to you a while ago, you smell like an expensive cologne but this time, you smell more better. Like the smell of a rose" she replied

I smelled my body, I smelled my body, I can't smell anything, I really have a weak smell that's why. A girl suddenly came out of the crowd and went to me. She put her hands on my neck and raised her phone for a selfie.

Is this..... LUNA!!!!!!!!?????? She started talking selfies rapidly. I joined in and smiled, raising some piece sign finger, I started to feel a strong romantic excitement. She suddenly raised a teddy bear, the teddy bear I gifted her.

Luna looked at me with a smile, then a shocked face. I kept feeling a very very very strong romantic excitement.

"Hey, I woke up because I am feeling strong! Are you okay?" My Gigantosaurus asked

"Y-yeah, I am okay" I replied

People around looked at me with shocked faces. I raised my arm... I am emitting a pink aura, I looked around my body, my body is emitting pink aura. Holy, shit.

Luna gave me a beautiful smile(✿⁠^⁠‿⁠^⁠), waved goodbye and disappeared back in the crowd.

"How are you doing thatಠ⁠_⁠ಠ?" Blake whispered

"I don't know, it's just coming out of nowhere(⁠・⁠o⁠・⁠)" I replied

"Bro, let's go outside, it's getting hot in here mostly this arcade is not that big" Blake said

I nodded, both excused the crowds, they gave us our way to the outside. As we got outside, they stopped following us, that's good, it would be a pain if they still follow.

I started to feel dizzy

"Shit, I.... Felt overload"

I looked to my left, I saw Jayden and Nova side by side walking.

"Woah woah woah woah woah, what is that? Why are you revealing it?" Marc asked, the 3 of them came out of nowhere

Blake and I told them the whole story, how we gained it out of nowhere and somehow activated on its own.

"Well, okay then, but both of you need to hide" Marc said

"What about the 2?" Blake asked

"Don't worry about them, one day, we will find them but first, we need to take care of Mateo here, he looked very dizzy"

Bonus Content:

Mateo was finally allowed a moment of peace. He was tucked away in a quiet corner of the mall, trying to rest, but even in his sleep, his "Heart-Eyed" aura pulsed with a soft pink glow, emitting tiny, glowing hearts.

Marc sat nearby, keeping an eye on him, while Blake and Elyzer tried to figure out how to undo the whole "Heart-Eyed" debacle. James was already out of the mall, having gone on a "coffee run" as an excuse to get away from the attention they were getting.

"How the heck did we even get into this mess?" Elyzer asked.

"You know, if I wasn't worried about Mateo, I'd probably be rolling on the floor laughing," Blake said, trying to suppress a smile.

Suddenly, a high-pitched squeal filled the air. A group of young girls was swarming around the corner, their eyes glued to Mateo. He was sleeping peacefully, but his aura was having a strong effect on them.

"That's the Heart-Eyed cosplayer from Cosplay Central!" one of the girls shrieked.

The girls began to crowd around Mateo, taking pictures of him as he snored blissfully, unaware of the chaos he was causing.

Marc sighed. "This is gonna be a long day."

The girls, completely enamored by Mateo's aura, started to sing songs about love and happiness, creating a bizarrely enchanting soundtrack to the scene. Mateo stirred, a confused expression on his face. He looked around and saw the girls staring at him with admiration.

"Dude, I think we need to get you out of here," Blake said, his voice full of desperation.

"No, I'm fine," Mateo said, his voice soft but firm. "These girls seem pretty cool. Maybe we could hang out."

Blake and Elyzer exchanged a look. They knew this was a terrible idea, but Mateo's aura was too potent, and they had no idea how to stop it.

The "Heart-Eyed" chaos continued.
