A/N: This is my response to S. Muffin's 30 Prompt Challenge. This chapter is set a while after Ash and May go their separate ways. There won't be any regular updates; I'll just post whenever inspiration strikes. So here begins my first attempt at fan fiction!
Disclaimer: I'm pretty sure I don't own pokemon.
Keeper of My Heart
By NeoWolfX
24. Savior
Alone on a hilltop one starry evening, May found herself thinking of a certain raven haired trainer.
As she looked up at the stars, she remembered all the times they had together. From stuffing their faces at a pokemon center's cafeteria, to him fearlessly descending a cliff to rescue her and Torchic from a vicious Magneton. Yet the most vivid memory was of him placing her, Manaphy and Pikachu into a capsule while he left to try and save the temple of the sea. It was from that moment she realized her true feelings for him, yet she said nothing out of fear of rejection and he slipped out of her life as they parted ways.
She reached for the ribbon half that she always carried with her and pressed it to her heart.
"Ash" she whispered
It was at that point that she made up her mind to tell him her true feelings - no matter the consequence.
For he was her hero, he was her love, he was… her savior.
