It was a sunny morning in the Kanto region and Ash had just awoken. He saw his friends outside of his tent. He smelled some delicious food and wanted to eat (as always). So he got dressed and came out side.

"Hey Ash" Clemont said, "Did you sleep well?"

"OH Yeah! I slept great!" Ash said, still a little tired though. Probably because he nearly woke up five minutes ago.

"Morning Ash!" Bonnie said.

"Morning Bonnie!" Ash said.

The only one who did not say good morning to Ash was Serena. Serena was just stuck in a stare. She seemed to be staring at Ash! Serena has had a big crush on him for a while now but, she was too scared to tell him.

Ash noticed Serena and he broke her stare by saying, " Hey Serena, you seem a distracted. What are you thinking about?"

Serena blushed and said, "oh nothing."

"Wow that was close! You need to be more careful Serena!" She thought to herself as she walked up to the other three and sat down for breakfast.

This time Ash was starting at Serena. He also had a crush on her. "Wow, those big beautiful eyes." He mumbled to himself. Hoping no one had heard him. But, with his luck Bonnie heard him and was about to say something before Ash quickly grabbed her and took her somewhere so that no one could hear them.

"Bonnie!" Ash said, with a worried face.

"What?" Bonnie said, "why can't Serena know you like her?"

"I don't like her" he said, "I love her! But if she were to find out before I'm ready to tell her then I won't know what to say. And that could ruin Everything!"

"I still don't get it?" Bonnie said with a confused tone.

"Please, you just have to trust me!" He said making Bonnie realizing that he was serious. "I promise that I will tell her eventually."

"Fine! I will keep my mouth shut" she said in defeat but also understanding.

The two returned and no one spoke about why or what happened with Ash and Bonnie as they saw it looked serious.

"So ummm, What's the plan for today?" Serena said trying to break the silence.

"Well I think I am going to train harder for the Kalos league. After all I have all eight of my gym badges now!" Ash said with joy!

"That's right!" Clemont said

But, Ash really didn't feel like training with his pokemon. All he wanted to do was tell Serena how he felt and how he was going to do it. So Ash got up and got all of his pokemon and started to train!

But Ash was not in it like he usually was. All he could do is think about how beautiful she was! All his pokemon could tell but, Pikachu especially.

"Pika Pika?" Pikachu said

"Ya your right." Ash said slightly turning his head and looking at Serena, "I know I should focus but I can't! I don't know what it is but today all I can think about is Serena!"

"Pika Chu Pika!" Pikachu said with an understanding tone in his voice.

"Thank you for understanding Pikachu." Ash said, "But we still need to make a plan to tell, you know who, that I like her!"

Ash was thinking of a way to tell Serena that he loved her. Eventually after about 30 minutes everyone saw that Ash was not training with his pokemon.

"Hey Ash! You don't seem to be training?" Serena said with a questioning look on her face, "What's up?"

"Oh you know, just thinking of strategies for the battles up ahead." Ash lied.

Serena saw he was lying and said, " oh really? What do you have in mind?"

"Oh uh, well you see, umm, I was thinking of-" Ash got cut off by Serena

"AH HA! I knew you were lying!" She said with kind of a snarky tone, " what were you actually thinking about?"

Ash totally stunned, and trying to think of what to say and it hit him! He knew how he was going to tell Serena that he loved her!
