NOTE: This is not like the original tv series, Ash Ketchum is 16, Tess Morgan (New character) is 15, and Brock is 18.
"Tess! Tess, wait up!" I looked behind me, the tears in my eyes making my vision blurry. But i knew exactly who was calling after me. Ash Ketchum, 16 years old, and the most handsome boy i'd ever seen. His long, black hair, with a fringe that was always cutting in between his eyes, his beautiful brown eyes. I shook my head, as if willing the thoughts away. "Just leave me alone, Ash!" I shouted back, the tears distinct in my voice. I continued running, as if i was somehow running away from the truth. "Pika pika!" I looked down to see Ash's Pokemon, Pikachu, running beside me, trying to make me stop. "No! No, just please leave me alone!" I gasped as i felt myself falling hard towards the ground. It was too late to put my hands out, and my delicate nose hit the train track with such a force, i wasn't surpised to smell and taste the blood within seconds. I looked down to notice that the reason i'd fell, was because my foot had been caught in between the tracks. Ignoring what i presumed to be a broken nose, and carefully trying to free my foot, i winced at the site of my ankle. It was twisted at an angle that i knew couldn't be right. Trying not to worry, i clenched my teeth and tried to bare with the pain til i got off the tracks. As everything went quiet i screamed out as i heard the loud and fearful sound of a train, that was not that far away. I saw Ash, a few feet away from me, looking horrified, probably at the site of my face. "Ash, Ash please help me! Please Ash!" He stopped and noted the train, with a stern, calm look on his face. "Please!" I screamed again, shaking with fear. I felt like i was going to pass out. Ash quickly ran over and dropped to his knees. "Pika!" I heard Pikachu from somewhere behind me. "I'm so sorry Tess, i. I didn't mean to tell Brock, i just. I was." He bit his lip, as if trying to stop the hole he was digging himself from getting any deeper. I was still shaking with terror as he worked expertly, trying to get my foot free from the tracks with as little pain as possible. "Your ankle, its fractured, i think. I'm going to have to put it back into place for your foot to get free." I nodded, wiping tears and blood from my face. "Just do it. Hurry." I could hear the train getting closer. I gritted my teeth, as he slowly counted to three. "One, two-" I screamed out as a seering pain came up from my ankle and shook me to the bone. "What happened to three?!" I shouted as the pain became unbearable. "Im sorry, no, im sorry, are you okay? Hurry hurry, lets get you off this track." I looked to my left and saw the blinding light of a train, and it was only about 10 seconds away. I closed my eyes and waited for the impact, but instead i felt Ash lifting me up with ease, and carrying me across to the other side. As he sat me down on the gritty path, i kept my eyes shut as i felt the wind from the passing train blast against my face. I opened them, just in time to see him and Pikachu, both smiling, looking at me. His eyes glowed with something that i couldn't quite put my finger on, and it looked as though i wasn't the only one that had been crying. But his smile quickly faded."Tess, i didn't mean to tell Brock about your family. It just slipped out, i just wanted him to stop giving you a hard time and i thought if he knew about them just deserting you, then he would understand, i mean. Gah. You're only 15 and you've been left by your parents, just because they didnt have enough money to take you with them. Who does that?! Really? I still cant believe it. I. I just wanted him to leave you alone." I smiled, wiping yet more tears and blood from my face. "I know, Ash. I know." I was about to thank him for saving my life, when he came towards me slowly, his eyes level with mine, our noses touching. I lay back as he lay on top of me, our legs tangled. I noticed that he took extra care not to touch my sore ankle, and brushed the stray hair from out of my face. "Tess.." He started, his hot breath blowing over my face, his soft lips inches away from mine. "I've been meaning to tell you this for a while." He whispered softly into my ear, his hand reaching behind the back of my head, like a cushion. He played with my hair as i willed him to continue. It was like the addreniline that was pumping in both of our bodies had caused some sort of sexy vibe. "What is it Ash?" I whispered back, feeling confused and excited. What was he doing? Was this seriously happening? I ignored those thoughts and just went with it. "I love you Tess Morgans. I love you, everything about you." It was as if he was repeating it, to enhance his feelings somehow. I was soaring. I felt physically sick with butterflies, and the smile that crept upon my face, was so big, so real, i felt it would never leave. Not with him by my side. "I. I love you too, Ash Ketchum. I've loved you since the first day i met you. 3 years ago to this day." I whispered, my voice going quieter by each sentence that uttered from my rosie lips. "Well. Then i guess this is long overdue." He said slowly, his voice deep and sexy. He moved his head slightly so that we were facing each other once again, breathing in each others breath. As we both closed our eyes, i leaned in slightly, as did he, and our lips touched. Excitement flowed through my body and i tingled everywhere. His hands carressed my body as i fumbled with his lush hair. Our tongues touched and it felt like fireworks in my mouth. He lightly nibbled on my lower lip, and as we pulled apart slightly, he continued to kiss my neck, biting softly. "I want you to be mine. Forever." He whispered, looking at me directly. "Don't make me ask. Just tell me you will be." I nodded, unable to speak, unable to move. I nodded til i felt dizzy, but i could still make out the gigantic smile that slowly spread across his perfect face. "Pika! Pika pika!" We both laughed nervously as we looked to our left to see Pikachu, worried. "It's okay buddy." Ash said happily, getting up to pet Pikachu's head. "Pika!" I giggled at his cute little smile, and tried to get up. "No no, i'll help you." Ash took a small stride towards me, bent down, and lifted me up, again, with no effort. I wrapped my legs around his waist, my arms around his neck. He grinned cheekily, and leaned towards me, kissing my forehead. "I meant every word of what i said. Tess i want, no i need you, in my life. But i need you to be mines, i love you, i honestly do. My heart takes over my whole body when i see you, and when i see you cry, it feels like its literally breaking. I promise to take care of you, protect you, keep you safe. But above all, i promise that as well as me being able to call you mines, you will always be able to call me yours. Because forever i will be just that. Yours." My green eyes watered as i thought about what to say. "I dont want you to leave me. I dont want you to make me jealous if we argue. I need someone who will always, whatever happens, be there for me. And Ash, i hope to god that is you, because i've fallen for you hard. I just need you to catch me before i hit the ground. Can you do that? Can you pick me up when im down, make me smile when i cry?" He nodded, he nodded til his head was just a blur. "I promise." He whispered, kissing my forehead again. "Good. So. Good." I smiled, speachless. And as we set off, Pikachu in tow, i nudged my head into his neck, where it fitted perfectly, as if it was made just for me, and, forgetting the searing pain in my ankle and nose, i somehow felt my eyes grow heavy, and i was plunged into darkness.
