Confessions and Love

Please no flames! R&R! I like reviews a lot! :) First CafeMocha story! (I'm actually gonna drink that tomorrow :) )
"Wait up Ash!" Cilan shouted as he raced after the hyperactive boy. Once they arrived in Nacrene City, Iris decided she needed her own "girl time," and left, leaving the connoisseur with the "child." Right now, Ash was searching for the gym, racing around like there was no tomorrow. Pikachu was racing behind him, huffing every once in a while. "I can't find it anywhere!" Ash shouted as he turned the corner only to run into a dead end. This was probably the third dead end they had run into. Feeling a hand on his shoulder, Ash turned around to see Cilan smiling sadly at him. Returning the smile, Ash moved to walk back to the main roads when the hand on his shoulder grabbed his arm. Confused, Ash glanced at Cilan, seeing that he was about to speak.
"Ash...how about we try again tomorrow? It's already close to sunset..." Ash stared at the sky, noting that it was indeed late. But nonetheless, he was determined to find the gym.
"No way! I'm gonna find the gym if that's the last thing I do!" With that, Ash pulled his arm out of Cilan's grip and sauntered away, getting prepared to search again. Sighing, Cilan followed behind, his head beginning to pound from exhaustion. They had been walking for several hours, so Cilan's feet hurt badly and he desperately wanted a shower.
"Ugh!" Ash bellowed as he once again turned into an alley with a dead end. Cilan was walking up behind him as Ash turned around, but his foot caught on a crack in the cement and he fell forward into something soft and warm.
"Oomph~. Are you okay Ash?" Stunned at the quick movement, Ash vaguely realized that he was leaning into Cilan's chest, and he also vaguely realized he liked the warmth. Nodding quietly, Ash pulled away reluctantly, hesitating before walking past Cilan and going back to the main rode. His black hair covered his growing blush and the wind whipped against him. "Ash...?" Cilan whispered as he stared confused at Ash's sudden silence. Feeling a sudden surge of confidence through his heart, Cilan stepped forward quickly before Ash could walk back out to the roads and tugged him by the arm back into the alley.
"What-?" Ash was cut off with Cilan hugging him gently and firmly. A bright red blush could be seen on both of their faces, but neither cared. Placing his head on Cilan's left shoulder, Ash sighed happily as he could hear Cilan's heartbeat. He smiled as he heard the quick beats of the wonderful heart of the man he loved.
"I wanted to do this for so long..." Cilan whispered softly. Ash pulled away slightly to look into Cilan's face. Love and slight hope was in Cilan's eyes as he hoped that Ash returned his feelings, but ash didn't do anything except lean forward until their noses were touching. Cilan's green eyes widened slowly before closing just as slow when Ash closed the gap between the two. The kiss was natural and sweet, yet completely new to both boys. No tongue or anything, just a sweet and gentle kiss. This is like a movie Ash thought as he smiled into the kiss, feeling Cilan's arms circle around his thin waist. Raising his arms, Ash wove them around Cilan's neck as the two boys pulled apart, gazing into each others' eyes while the wind tapped them on their cheeks and fiddled with their hair. In the process of being pulled, Ash's hat had fallen to the cement ground, freeing his hair to be reachable by the wind.
"I..." Cilan started but froze, nervousness taking over. Ash smiled knowing exactly what he was going to say.
"Me too. Let's head to the Pokemon Center now. Pikachu is tired and so are we..." Grabbing Cilan's hand, Ash glance to his side to side to see Pikachu lying against a painted wall, sleeping soundly. Giggling, Ash used his other hand to scoop the mouse Pokemon into his arm, holding onto him gently so that he could sleep soundly. Glimpsing at Cilan, Ash grinned happily before walking towards the Pokemon Center. Cilan smiled as well as he walked side-by-side with Ash, gripping his had gently, yet lovingly.
"What took you guys so long?" Iris questioned as they walked into the Pokemon Center. Blushing, both boys quickly walked to their room without a word to the girl. Huffing, the girl trotted to her room with Axew, trying to figure out what she missed.
"I'll just ask them again tomorrow!" The purple-haired girl grinned happily, completely oblivious to what actually happened.
"Ax!" Axew shouted, curling up on the girl's bed and falling asleep. Yet in his head, Axew completely understood what happened.
"Goodnight, Axew!" Iris whispered before turning off the light and lying down herself. I hope those two got together finally! The Pokemon trainer smiled, drifting off to sleep.
