Author's Notes: Welcome to those of you reading this story for the first time :) I am currently in the process of rewriting this story - no changes to the plot will be made. I'm only simply touching up the chapters because, I was a new writer when I first wrote this story and I've grown so much since then and honestly (I'm not trying to toot my own horn but...) I think I'm a pretty amazing writer now :) So yeah, looking back to this story, I was honestly disgusted with this. I thought it was good then, but now that my writing has improved heaps, I think this is horrible. I won't be rewriting the chapters - I really don't have time to actually rewrite the chapters - I'm just reading them and re-wording things, fixing spelling mistakes, adding more thought and just making it much more enjoyable to read. You may read on if you wish, or you can wait until I touch up each chapter and follow this story that way, however the only downside of that would be you wouldn't know when I fixed a chapter unless you check everyday xD. So yeah...just wanted to get that out there :) I hope you all enjoy this story!

Dear Diary,

I'm new to this diary thing. My mom gave it to me after we moved a week ago to Pallet Town. This is my first time writing in it. She says I need it so I can write down all my feelings and junk. She thinks I'm sad because we moved away from all my friends... and most of all... my (ex)boyfriend... Lucas. Wait I'm going to introduce myself to you first :).

I'm Dawn Berlitz. I am 15 years old in the ninth grade. I'm extremely shy around new people until I get too know them I can be one heck of a crazy girl. I used to live in Sinnoh in the town of Twinleaf. Now I'm living in Kanto in the town of Pallet. My favorite colors are Blue and Pink. I love making friends. I Hate drama. I love boys. I like to shop and text. I am a pretty good artist and I like to design little outfits for Piplup and Buneary. Piplup is my bestfriend. I am now single :(. If I could have one wish as of now... it would be to find another boy like Lucas or maybe better...

Now that you know about me.. I can write a little more.

My mom decided to move - she 'says' she wants to because she wanted to get of out Sinnoh. I think she's hiding something, honestly. Well, we did move and I'm not adjusting to this new region. It's so different from Sinnoh. The pokemon, the atmosphere, the people. It's just so much. I wish I could go back to Sinnoh with all of my friends.

In Sinnoh, I attended Poketrainer Academy. I wasn't popular but I was well-known around the school and many people wanted to be my friend...you don't call that popular do you? Well anyways, I had my main bestfriends... Lawren, Jessica, and Ashley. We went through so much together. Things I will never forget. I will always love them no matter what! Even though I'm in Kanto - millions of miles away - we'll always be bestfriends.

But the thing that hurt most was...was leaving, now my ex, boyfriend Lucas. We've been dating for a year and two months. We started dating in 8th grade, but were really close friends ever since we were little kids. I love him with all my heart, he was the best thing that ever happened to me.

I didn't tell Lucas I was moving until the day it actually came...this is what happened...

I was standing inside my empty room with tears in my eyes. It was almost time for us to leave and that day I hadn't seen or heard from Lucas. I was going to tell him as soon as I could talk to him. As I stood there...I heard someone enter my room. It was Lucas. He had a sad/angry look on his face and his eyes were filled with many emotions that I couldn't make out all at once.

"Lucas." I stared at him for a long moment waiting for him to say something. Anything. A tear rolled down my cheek.

"Why didn't you tell me you were moving Dawn?" Lucas asked in a hushed tone.

I looked down at my carpet. "I couldn't...I didn't want you to know until the day I left." Tears started flowing down my cheeks as I looked back at Lucas. Tears were welling up in his eyes. I knew right then I'd hurt him, but I didn't mean to.

"Why? Why did you do that?" he asked trying to fight back the tears that were threatning to fall.

"If I would have told you as soon as I found out...you would have broke up with me. I wanted to be with you until I left Lucas...that's why I couldn't tell you." I stared in his eyes.

"I just can't believe you Dawn! I thought we wouldn't hide things from each other? I'd rather you tell me earlier than for me too find out now...I would have been able to deal with this a little better... I don't know what to say or think." Lucas now had a few tears coming from his eyes. He walked closer to my and his hands grabbed mines.

"We-we're over Dawn." When he told me this, my heart broke into a million peices and they all sank down somewhere.. somewhere I couldn't reach. Tears were pouring from my eyes and from his. I knew this was coming... I just wasn't expecting is so soon.

"I'm sorry Dawn. But you know we can't keep a long distance relationship, they never work. I'll miss you Dawn...I'll miss you so much." Lucas let go of my hands. "I love you Dawn.."

Lucas looked at me for one last time and turned around and ran out of my room and out the house. "Lucas!" I tried to call him, but it was too late. He was gone, I never saw him again that day I left. I stood there crying in my room. The tears just wouldn't stop flowing from my eyes. My heart was broken and lost somewhere I couldn't find. To this day - a week later - my heart is still lost. I cried every night this week thinking of Lucas.

I texted him and tried to call him quite a few times this week. However, I recieved no response. I just decided to let go for good. Maybe he didn't want to be bothered with me anymore or just needed some time to recover before he had enough courage to face me again...

Okay... I'm soo done writing about that...it's making me tear up a little...ugh, it's time for the first day of my NEW school. I'll be attending RoseWood High School. I'm truly nervous.

What if I can't fit in and make new friends?

Arceus, please help me.

- xoxo Dawn /:

"Dawn, sweethear! Are you ready?" Johanna called to her beautiful daughter. Johanna was excited for Dawn attending her new school. She knew Dawn was shy around new people, however she also knew her daughter would be able to pull through for her first day. Her hopes were pretty high for Dawn.

The bluenette, who had been writing in her diary, sighed inwardly when she heard her mother's voice from downstairs carry up into her room. "Yes," Dawn yelled in response, "I'll be down in a second." Dawn uncrossed her legs and got off her bed with Piplup right by her side.

"Pip-lup," chirped the little penguin pokemon. The water type looked up at his trainer with worried eyes. He was aware of how Dawn felt about moving and attending a new school. He was worried for his trainer.

Dawn smiled down at her starter Pokemon. She could tell by Piplup's expression that he was concerned for her. However, Dawn reassured him by saying, "I know, I'll be fine, okay?" She didn't even believe what she had said herself, but she just didn't want Piplup to be worried.

"Pip pip," Piplup chirped, a bit unsure of his trainer.

"Trust me, Piplup, I'll be fine. No need to worry!" She recited her favorite saying and picked up her diary from her bed. "I better put this in a hiding place so mom won't try to read it." Dawn said, scanning her new room in search of a decent spot to hide her diary.

She put the lock on her diary, placed it under her pink bean bag, and put the small keys that unlocks the diary on her dresser. "Perfect," she said to herself. "Come on, Piplup." Dawn walked out of her room with Piplup trailing close behind her and walked downstairs. "Good morning mom," Dawn greeted her mother as walked into the kitchen.

The older woman was sitting at the Kitchen, sipping on a cup of coffee, waiting patiently for her daughter to walk in the kitchen. "Good morning, honey," Johanna smiled and took a sip from her mug.

"Pip-lup-lup," Piplup chirped wanting some attention too.

"Good morning to you too, Piplup," Johanna said brightly with a smile on her face. "So, Dawn, are you ready for school?" she asked her daughter who was now standing by the table.

Honestly, Dawn wasn't at all ready. She was nervous, which was expected, but she never thought her nerves would be this bad. However, she didn't want to tell her mom that. The last thing she wanted was her mom to be worried about her too. "Uuh...yeah, sure." Dawn forced a small smile on her face.

Johanna sipped more of her coffee nonchalantly. "Good. Do you want me to drive you to school?" Johanna asked Dawn, eyeing her with the most curiosity. Something about her daugther's demeanor was telling Johanna that Dawn wasn't ready for her first day. However, she wasn't going to push it.

Dawn shook her head. "No.. I want to ride the bus." This was only half true. Riding the bus meant she could have a chance of meeting someone. Maybe. Also, she didn't want to ride the bus because she was scared. What would the other kids think of her? "And it may help me learn the bus number too. I'll need to know my bus number."

"Yes, that's true, sweetheart. Well, okay, I won't drive you to school." Johanna eyed Dawn. She couldn't help but give her a reassuring smile and sayin, "Honey, you'll be fine today, okay?"

Dawn was a bit taken aback by this, however she kept her composure. She wondered where that had come from since she told her mom she was okay - and she seemedo have believed she was okay. "I know, mom," Dawn said a bit lower than she expected.

Silence over came them for a couple of seconds, until Dawn spotted the bus coming down the street.

"There's the bus..I have to go. Bye mom, bye Piplup!" Dawn rushed out the door nearly falling over due to her hastiness.

"Poor Dawn," Johanna said to Piplup as she watched her daughter go. "She's so nervous. I hope she's okay." Piplup simply sighed and nodded his head in agreement.

x-x-x

Dawn ran to her bus stop and arrived at the perfect time. The bus had just stopped in front of the line of kids waiting to get on the bus. Dawn recieved a few curious stares from the kids at her bus stop. She looked away to avoid eye contact.

The doors to the bus opened and Dawn's heart began to race.

As she struggled to find a seat, the kids on the bus were going crazy. Papers were being thrown from one side to another, two girls were talking extremely loud to one another, - they were in the same seat - a few guys were picking on a little nerd boy, a girl was popping gum annoyingly, some kids were texting and talking on their cellphones, and the rest were quiet.

Dawn was still looking for an empty seat, when the bus started to move. She fell into a seat next to a beautiful red-headed girl. Though, the stumble was not her fault, she regretted falling in this particular seat.

When Dawn fell into the seat she bumped the girl causing the girl to miss her lips and have lipgloss going across her cheek. Dawn stared at her, unmoving, not sure what the girl's reaction would be. It was only an honest mistake and Dawn hoped she would understand that.

The girl had long red hair that reached half way down her back and her eyes were a pretty cerulean blue. "Hey! Watch what your doing! Look what you did to me!" the red head fussed at Dawn and pointed to her face.

Dawn's cheeks turned red from embarrasement. "I-I-I'm sooo sorry..." Dawn apologized and the girl just rolled her eyes, clearly aggitated.

"No what you can do to help? GET OUT OF MY SEAT!" The girl yelled at Dawn causing her to shiver. Dawn took the warning and hopped up from the girl's seat quickly and found another seat a few seats behind the girl's.

A boy laughed at how the girl blew up on Dawn. "Gee Misty...you didn't have to yell at her like that," a boy said. Dawn looked at him - he had brown hair and dark colored eyes.

Misty glared at him, "Look what she made me do! I have Lipgloss all over my face and she was sitting in my seat!"

The boy rolled his eyes and looked at Dawn, which caused her to look away. "I'm sure it was only an accident," he said. He honestly couldn't understand why she always had to make a huge deal out of little things.

The redhead scoffed and rolled her eyes, "Whatever."

"Oh, yeah, Misty, you better get the lip gloss on your lips for Ash..." The boy began to chuckle to himself. "He won't like it on your cheek," the boy teased Misty and laughed.

Misty rolled her eyes playfully. "Don't you think I know that?" Misty winked and took a tissue out her purse and wiped her face.

Thoughts ran through Dawn's head, "So her name's Misty. She must be popular or something. She looks pretty popular.. I mean she's fabulous. Her hair, her face, her clothes. And who's Ash? Her boyfriend? I wonder if he's cute. Well, even if he is, it doesn't matter. I can't have him because he's taken." Dawn stared out the window for the rest of the ride to school. Her bus to get to school was already bad...now she wondered how her school day would turn out.

x-x-x

The bus came to a stop in front of the big, beautiful high school. Dawn gasped at the sight of her new school. She stared out the window and looked around at the outside of the school in awe.

Students were everywhere. Some were getting off buses, sitting on the grass, skate boarding, talking, walking in the school, texting, making out, hugging, waiting for friends, they were doing all sorts of things.

Dawn snapped back to reality and rose from her seat, realizing she was the last one on the bus. Dawn walked down aisle and exited the bus.

She looked around nervously. She didn't know what to do or where to go. She just begin walking to the doors. People were staring and whispering as she walked by them. She tried her hardest to not pay attention to them. If she did, it would only make her all the more nervous.

Dawn put her head down so she couldn't see them. This helped her a lot.

However, it wasn't the best idea...

Dawn hollered and soon found her self on the ground with something very heavy on top of her. Dawn opened her eyes and saw a boy gazing down on her. His eyes were beautiful. He was a really attractive boy. His eyes were a light chocolate brown, he wore a red and white hat with a blue pokeball on it, his black hair was sticking out from the sides. From what Dawn could see, he had on a blue and white short- sleeved jacket. Dawn countinued to look into his eyes.

"Uh..." The boy said blushing a little bit, and cutting Dawn from her slightly dazed stated.

Dawn cut her gaze, "Uh...could you get off of me please?" Dawn asked nervously.

"Oh, right." The boy got off of Dawn and he grabbed her hand to help her up. When their hands touched Dawn felt a sudden spark...one that she always felt when Lucas touched her.

"Um, thanks," Dawn said. She could feel her cheeks burning. "Sorry for running into you," Dawn apologized.

"It's alright," the boy said, "you should be more careful." He said this in a half-way harsh tone. He stared at Dawn and exaimined her. She wasn't looking at him, but he saw the red blush that took over her face.

His stare got even deeper. Her eyes were a pretty blue. Her hair was also blue, however much darker than her eyes. Her hair was flowing along with the small breeze. She wore a short denim shorts, black sandals, a pink shirt with a black heart on it, and diamond stud earrings. He thought she looked really cute.

"Well...you're okay aren't you?" The boy asked, coming back to himself.

"Yeah, I'm fine. No need to worry," she chuckled nervously. The boy nodded. The two stood in silence until Dawn decided to break it. "So what's your name?"

As soon as he was about to answer, the red-headed girl that rode Dawn's bus, Misty, walked over to Ash's side and took his hand. Misty glared at Dawn.

"Ash.. what are you doing with this loser?" She asked while staring at Dawn.

Dawn just stared at Ash waiting to see what he was going to say. "So he's Ash. He is so cute," Dawn thought to her self.

"Chill Mist...we just bumped into each other," he answered.

"Well she needs to watch where she's going!" Misty growled, still staring at Dawn dangerously.

Misty rolled her eyes at Dawn and she pulled Ash's hand to lead them away. Dawn watched them walk away. Ash put his arms around Misty's waist and he kissed her cheek.

Dawn heard him say something that made her a little sad in the inside.

"You didn't think I was hitting on her did you? What would I look like going out with that loser?" Misty giggled, as Ash kissed her cheek again.

Dawn rolled her eyes, "Just a jerk who must think he's better than everybody."

As she began to walk to the doors she heard people 'coughing' out "klutz". Dawn knew exactly why they were saying that. They obviously saw the whole scene with her and Ash. She just hung her head low and thought, "I haven't even made through the morning and already this day is bad..."

x-x-x

Dawn was able to find her classes with ease, which surprised being that this school was new to her and since it was so big.

The last bell of the day rang and Dawn was relieved to be able to go home. Her day had got a better after the incidents in the morning, however that was about to change.

Dawn was at her locker when a group of 4 girls came up to Dawn. She sighed wondering what they wanted.

"Are you, like, the girl that ran into Ash this morning?" the girl in the front asked. She had long blonde hair that hung in loose curls. She had on skinny jeans, a blue shoulder shirt, sliver flats, silver hoops, a silver heart necklace, and silver bracelets. Dawn guessed this girl must've been the 'leader' of the little clique.

"Well, hello?" one of the other girls said.

Dawn stopped her stare and answered, "Oh um..." Dawn trailed off and nodded, embarrased.

All the girls began laughing. "What a joke!" The girl in the front said.

"Yea, how are you going to just bump into the most popular guy in school like that?" A girl on the far right asked, laughing.

"What a klutz," another girl teased.

"Maybe next time, you need to watch where you're going. I even heard you fell into Misty's seat on the bus, too." The blonde girl said, laughing. "Do you, like, have a problem standing or something?"

"I'm surprised she's standing now." They laughed and waled away.

"Bye klutzarella," one girl said as they walked away.

Dawn's face was completely red. Not only from embarrasement, but also from anger. She couldn't believe how mean people were at this school. Never in her life had she been embarassed like this. Dawn closed her locker and walked at a quick pace so she could find her bus and get on it.

She ignored the stares, whispers, and giggles she received as she walked by people.

When Dawn stepped on the bus, she was relieved that she was the third person up there. Everyone else must have been lagging around with friends and doing other things before getting on the bus. Dawn wished she had friends to hang out with right now.

Dawn sat in the front to avoid as much humiliation as possible. She didn't want to have a bad ride home.

A couple minutes later, kids begin pouring on the bus filling up the seats. Misty was the last to get on the bus.

Misty glared at Dawn and smirked, "Klutz." Misty laughed a bit and made her way to the back.

Dawn rolled her eyes and slumped down in her seat to hide her face. She looked out the window and saw Ash looking at the bus. "He's so gorgeous," Dawn thought to herself, but her thoughts were interrupted when she heard Misty shout something out the window.

"Ash, call me later. I love you!"

Ash smiled, winked, and nodded. He then went to his bus.

Dawn watched Ash walk as much as she could before he disappeared out of her sight. "I can't wait to get home. What a rough first day." Dawn sighed.

x-x-x

"Finally!" Dawn shouted in her head. After what seemed like a long bus ride, the bus stopped at her bus stop, letting herr and severval other people off. They were the last ones to get off.

Dawn put her keys into the lock and turned it sideways unlocking the door and going inside. When Dawn walked in she noticed her mother was in the kitchen baking cookies.

Johanna heard Dawn come through the door and smiled.

"How was your first day honey?" she asked eyeing her daughter with a smile. Johanna noticed that Dawn wasn't smiling or anything. She couldn't quite read her daughter's expression, but she could tell that she was upset. Johanna immeidataley begin to worry.

"What's wrong Dawn? Are you okay?"

Dawn ignored her mother and walked until she reached the stairs. "Just fine!" Dawn spat as she turned around and walked heavily up the stairs and into her room.

When she reached her room she realized Piplup was on her bed. "Piplup, out for a few minutes," Dawn ordered the little pokemon. Right now, she just wanted to be alone.

Piplup fussed annoyingly, not wanting to leave. "Only for a little bit, Piplup. Please?" Dawn said pouting.

Piplup sniffed the air, and smelt chocolate chip cookies. He quickly hopped off Dawn's bed and ran down stairs to the kitchen.

The bluenette couldn't help but smile a little. "That'll work too." She closed her door behind Piplup, grabbed the diary keys off her dresser, retrieved the diary from under her bean bag and plopped down on it, opening her diary and begginning to write immediately.

Dear Diary,

Today was one of the worst days of my life! I was humilated. I guess I have a knew nickname...'Klutzarella.' That's so embarassing! All because I ran, well more like fell, into the most popular boy in school.. Ash. *sigh* He is soooooo cute! His eyes are beautiful and his smile is dazzling. He is definitely one of the hotest boys I had ever seen. But get this...he is also one of those boys, who THINK they're all of that! He called me a loser today! He was talking to his bitch of a girlfriend, Misty. I don't even know her and I hate her already! She's popular too. What a 'great couple'. They probably both think full of themselves...ugh.

And on top of that, a group of girls approched me. What about you ask? ABOUT ME RUNNING INTO ASH! They were they first to actually call me Klutzarella. They said I was a joke only because I fell on accident. I had no idea kids could be that mean...

I really hate my new school.

- xoxo Dawn

Dawn sighed and smiled a bit. She felt a little better after writing. She closed the diary, locked it and placed it back under her bean bag. She then placed the keys back on her dresser.

"Dawn?" Johanna knocked lightly on the door and came in before Dawn could even answer her. The younger bluenetter turned to her mom and gave her a annoyed look.

"Dawn, sweetie, what's wrong? Did something happen at school today? Do you want to to talk about it?" Johanna asked her daughter. She was very concerned for her daughter and she'd do anything to make her feel better.

"No mom," Dawn answered, avoiding her mom's gaze. "Can you just get out, please?" Dawn asked her mother with pleading eyes. Johanna nodded, understanding that her daughter wanted to be in private. "Oh, yeah, mom?" Dawn spoke up as her mom was bout to walk out of her room.

"Yes honey?"

"Thanks for the Diary." Dawn's voice was sincere.

Johanna simply smiled at her daughter and exited her room, closing the door behind her so Dawn could have her privacy. Johanna knew that diary would come in handy to Dawn.

Dawn sighed and hopped on her bed. Within a few seconds, she closed her eyes to get some rest and take her mind off all the happenings today.
