I should have done the prologue for my other story first. I know but I put this up so I can put full focus on my new other story. It's my first oneshot ever so..

Dawn POV

All of my friends had someone that they knew loved them. Misty with Ash. Leaf with Gary. May with Drew. I loved someone who I was sure could never love me. In fact, he probably hated me. It was unbearable to think of it all. Loving someone who could never love me. Paul hated me and I loved him.

I headed into town to buy some new seals for the contest I would enter in next week. I really had no idea what combinations I should do. I have a lot of ideas but I haven't tested any of them out with my Pokemon yet. I need to start now or-BUMP

"Watch where you are going."

That voice. I looked up from my gaze at the ground. That purple hair, those onyx eyes. Paul.

I looked up from my fixated gaze on the simple, concrete ground.

"Excuse me?" I said,mainly from personal shock.

"Watch where you are going, Troublesome." He always called me that. I hated it with every being I had.

"Can't you call me by my real name?" I said with an annoyed tone.

"I don't see why I should," he said as equally annoyed.

"Because it would be nice," I said quickly and obnoxiously.

"A good reason," I said with growing annoyance and brewing irritation.

"So, it would seem like you cared about life..?"

"...I don't have much to care about.."

"There has to be someone.."

"My brother died a year ago.."

The irritation in my voice began to slowly fade as I thought of which words to say next, unrewarding what had just happened.

"I'm so sorry for you..."

"Just one person left to care about.."

"One..?"

Paul POV

I didn't even know why I was continuing this conversation with Troublesome, and I was starting to admit that she was the one I loved but I was sure she hated me. She was merely feeling sorry for me because my brother died a year ago.

"Who is the other person you love?"

"..."

I didn'tknow what to say, I could admit it to her but I wouldn't know how Dawn would react but if I did.

Dawn POV

I felt like I asked a personal question that hurt him. Or shocked him. Now he would walk away and act like he had never known me or ever seen me. I had no idea what I'd had said. I should say sorry or he would never even think of me again.

Paul cupped my face in his hands and said one simple word in reply to my question,"You." He kissed me so gently and doubt in my heart quickly diappeared. I broke away from the kiss to say words as simple as Paul's.

"I love you too."

I know the story should be more detailed but I only had my laptop to publish for a couple minutes. Please review. :P
