Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon.

Cynthia X Dawn is L.O.V.E.!!!

Short fic is short. :P I'll try to make something longer later on...

"I...I really think this is a bad idea..."

"Aw, c'mon, baby...if you don't ever try to take any risks, then how do you expect to get ahead in life?"

Dawn scratched her forehead as she contemplated the current situation. In her right hand was a cellphone, and her left hand was clasped tightly between Cynthia's lithe fingers. Dawn let out a heavy sigh.

"You can do it...just punch in the numbers..." Cynthia egged her on.

Dawn gulped. "F...Fine...I'll do it..."

"Atta girl!! Kick some ass!!"

Dawn flashed a glare at her much older lover. "Cynthia..."

"Sorry..." Cynthia replied, grinning sheepishly.

After dialing her home phone number, Dawn held the receiver up to her ear, and waited for her mother to pick up. Cynthia rested her head on Dawn's shoulder, waiting excitedly for what was going to happen next.

Dawn could feel her heart pounding against her chest as she waited. It was the most uncomfortable, deafening silence she had ever been forced to endure.

"...Hello? This is Johanna..." a voice finally spoke from the other line, and Dawn immediately recognized it as her mother.

Dawn took in a deep breath. "Uh...h-hi, mom...it's me, Dawn..."

"Oh! Dawn! It's been so long since you've called, honey! How are you?!"

"Oh, I'm...I'm fine..." Dawn felt a shiver crawl up her spine. Cynthia's grin grew wider and wider with each passing second.

"That's good to hear! I'm really so happy that you called...I've missed you..."

Sweat rolled down Dawn's face as she let out a forced chuckle. "Y-Yeah...I've...I've missed you too...m-mom. Uh...listen, mom, the reason I'm calling...well, I need to tell you something really important..."

Johanna's tone of voice immediately became grave. "What is it, dear? Is...is something wrong?"

"N-No...nothing's wrong," Dawn exclaimed, "It's just...umm, how do I say this...well..."

"Yes? What is it? You can tell me..."

"Really? You sure...?"

"Of course I'm sure...now what is it?"

Dawn pinched the bridge of her nose, and let it all come out in one breath. "Mom, I'm a lesbian-"

"OH MY GOD, IT'S WITH THAT ZOEY GIRL, ISN'T IT?!!" Johanna immediately proclaimed.

"Uh, no...it's not...I'm seeing someone else..."

"Really? Oh...then who is it?"

"Wait!! Aren't you...aren't you upset at all? That I'm a lesbian, and everything?"

Johanna laughed. "No, of course not, sweetie! I love you! Why would I judge you over something like that? Now...tell me who it is that you're dating...I'd LOVE to meet her!!"

Although relieved her mother was taking her coming out so well, Dawn still had to reveal the other, more delicate, piece of information regarding her and her lesbianism. "I'm also living in the same house with a much older woman, who happens to be the Pokemon League Champion, and she's my lover..."

"...And we've had alot of sex lately!!" Cynthia added in.

"YOU DIDN'T NEED TO SAY THAT!!!" Dawn snapped back at her.

Johanna was no longer on the phone.

"Mom? Mom? Mom?!! Are you there?! Hello?!! Mom?!! Mom?!!! Where are you?! Mom?!! Mom?!!! Moooooooom...damn, she hung up..."

Sighing, Dawn slammed the phone down onto the table, and muttered, "Great...just great...this didn't work as well as I had hoped...now she's probably traumatized..."

"Ah, well, tough luck," Cynthia remarked without a care, wrapping her arms around Dawn's waist, "Now...let's go to bed! I've been dying all day to try out this new toy I bought and-"

"Whatever...I'm annoyed right now, so let's make this quick..." Dawn rolled her eyes, and began making her way to the bedroom...
