Ash was very straightforward with everything he did. If he wanted to train, he would train. If he wanted to battle, he would battle. When he needed to eat, he would make it plain to the world... and if he didn't his stomach sure would. And when it came to love... he was utterly oblivious. Much to the chagrin of a certain female companion of his that he met in his childhood.

Serena had ended up joining Ash throughout his adventures through the Kalos region, along with Clemont, the gym leader of the Lumiose Gym, and his little sister Bonnie. She had seen Ash in a perilous scenario, trying to help a pokemon being tortured, and under mind control. She soon realized that he was the same kid who helped her so long ago, in Professor Oak's Pokemon camp, when he had been lost, and hurt. She packed up for the journey, and went after her long lost friend, and crush. Eventually they met up, and started adventuring together.

Ash however, had always been oblivious to her crush on him, no matter the scenario, or how obvious it should have been. The only interest that he had ever shown for her was mutual friendship, and surprisingly to Serena, she would occasionally catch him staring down. Upon looking at him, he would look away, pretending he had been minding his own business. But once, Serena managed to figure out that he was staring at her feet. Aside from that, only at the end of his journey through Kalos, when Serena had ended up kissing him before he got on the plain, had his eyes even been slightly opened to how she felt about him. He had decided that he would one day return to the Kalos region, and get to know Serena better.

5 Years Later...

"Ash, are you ready?" asked Delia, Ash's mother.

"Yeah, mom!" Ash replied, somewhat excited. He had all of his basic needs in a backpack. His loyal Pikachu was perched on one of his shoulders, as always. Pikachu had been his first Pokemon, and was easily his best friend. He had double checked everything, and made sure nothing was amiss. He smiled at his mom, and gave her a hug.

"I'll see you when I'm back from Kalos, mom." Ash told her.

"Don't come back without grandkids!" Delia said, catching him off guard, and making him blush.

"Mom!" he exclaimed

"Oh, I was just kidding. But in all seriousness, be careful, and don't do anything stupid!" She told him.

"I know, and I won't." Ash reassured her, before giving her one last hug, and heading to the airport. He arrived just in time, getting on his flight, and relaxing after running to make it in time. He petted Pikachu's head while he calmed down.

"Chaaaa!" Pikachu seemed to appreciate this. Soon, Pikachu had fallen asleep.

The duo finally arrived at their destination. They got off the plain, and stretched. Ash seemed excited to be back after all this time, as did Pikachu. The first place he wanted to go was to Professor Sycamore's lab. Along the way, he felt nostalgia from when he first came to the place. He smiled at all the fond memories.

Upon reaching the lab, Ash opened the doors. "Hey, Professor Sycamore, are you here?"

"Pika Piii!" Pikachu called out as well.

For a moment, there was no response. Then, from down the hall, he heard running footsteps. He was suddenly alert, wondering if something was wrong. Suddenly, a light brown haired girl came running out, and tackle-hugged Ash. He nearly fell over, but managed to balance himself. "Serena?" He asked with a smile on his face. "What are you doing here?"

Serena smiled at him. "When you told me 2 days ago that you planned to visit Professor Sycamore when you came, I decided that I'd meet you here at his lab! But Ash, it's so great to see you face to face again!" She smiled, blushing slightly.

Ash smiled back. "Same to you!" He looked her over. She was now slightly more curvy than she had been when they had adventured together, and her features were somewhat more defined. Her hair looked as it did when they had first met in Kalos, if not a few inches longer. His gaze took her in, and briefly stopped at her feet. She was wearing sandals, and her toes had pink nail polish on, matching the rest of her pink girly theme.

Serena noticed this, remembered that he used to do this, and smiled at him. "Heheh, like my pink nail polish? I got my toenails painted a few days ago."

Ash blushed so lightly it was almost impossible to notice. He was saved from having to answer by the sound of more footsteps coming down the hallway Serena had come from. Professor Sycamore came out, and grinned. "Ash! It's been a while, hasn't it? How have you been?"

Ash smiled in return. "I've been doing alright. How about you? Any new discoveries with Mega Evolution?"

The professor smiled. "A few things, but nothing major. So, why are you back in Kalos?"

"Well, I've been going back through the regions I've traveled through, for nostalgic purposes." Ash replied, smiling. He rubbed Pikachu's chin. "I've been through alot, and so has Pikachu. Good times and bad times. Mostly good times though. And I'd love to revisit the places where they all happened."

The professor nodded. "Well, don't let me stop you. I'm going back to work. Have fun, Ash. If you ever need anything from me, just come back here." The professor walked off into the hallway he had come from.

Once the professor was gone, Serena smiled at Ash. "Hey, would you mind if I joined you on your adventure again? I'd love to travel with you again."

"Haha, sure! It would be great to have you!" Ash returned the smile. "But first, I think we need to stock up on some camping supplies. We'll need camping supplies, and some food to start us off."

Serena looked happy. "Okay. Would you like me to help you with getting the food?"

"Sure! You can get the food. I'll go get the camping supplies. That should get stuff done quicker." Ash seemed satisfied with this plan.

"Wait, Ash?" He stopped in his tracks right as he was about to run off. "I was wondering if we could do this together? Just so we can keep each other company. I mean... it has been a while since we've seen each other..." She trailed off.

Ash looked at her with a somewhat oblivious stare for a moment, before he remembered the kiss she had given him right before he left the region. In a moment of clarity, without the usual density that kept him from noticing how she acted around him typically, he managed to grasp what she meant. "Oh, uh, sure! I would be glad to have your company!" He smiled at her.

Serena smiled back with a blush. She followed him to the grocery store, and they picked out what they needed for a week. They chatted about what they had been doing in the last five or so years, and how their lives had changed. After a while, they had gathered what they needed. They proceeded to the checkout, and bought what they had picked. Next, they heading out and got some tents for camping.

"Wait, Ash? Don't we need sleeping bags?" Serena asked him when they left the store without any.

"Yes, but I have two in my backpack. I decided to bring an extra just in case." Ash may be dense, but at the very least he knows how to be prepared... "Hey, what about Clemont and Bonnie?" ... or maybe not.

"Oh, they're on vacation right now. Last time I heard from them, they were headed for the Alola region."

"Oh. Okay then." Ash smiled. The two, now having all the supplied they needed, headed out into a forest near Lumiose City, and set up camp. They day passed quickly, the two tending to their Pokemon, and chatting. Upon nightfall, the two got into the tent they had set up, and found sleep quickly.
