~~NORMAL P.O.V~~
Iris picked another Oran berry and placed it in her basket. "Axew Ax," her Axew said, popping out from her bushy purple hair. "I'm afraid you can't eat any, Axew," Iris said, waving her finger, "I need them for the cake I'm making. It is Cilan's birthday." "Axew…" it said, disappointed. In order to cheer her Pokémon up, she said, "I don't think Cilan would mind if you have a piece of his cake but you have to ask him about it." Axew nodded.
The purple haired girl ran towards the Pokémon center that she, Cilan and Ash were staying at. "Hi Nurse Joy!" she greeted the pink haired lady behind the counter. "Hello," Nurse Joy greeted, bubbly, "What can I do for you?" Iris thought for a moment before asking, "Can I use your oven? It's my friend's birthday." Nurse Joy nodded and said, "Sure."
Iris walked to the kitchen. She opened the door and was amazed at the size of the kitchen. "Wow!" she said, looking around. "Yes, amazing isn't it," someone said behind her. She turned around to see Nurse Joy. "Nurse Joy!" Iris said smiling at her, "Can you do me a favor?" Joy nodded. "Great, just don't tell Ash or Cilan where or what I'm doing, okay? It's a surprise." Joy smiled slyly and said, "Oh, so you're cooking for your boyfriend?" Iris flushed red and stuttered, "N-no, Cilan isn't my boyfriend!" "Mmhm…" Joy said exiting the kitchen.
~~IRIS'S P.O.V~~
I don't like Cilan…do I? No, Iris, snap out of it. I searched my bag for the cooking book I bought at the local bookstore. I found it and started to mix the batter. "Axew Ax!" Axew exclaimed, happily once I gave him the bowl to lick the batter off. I smiled at him as I placed the cake into the oven. "Thank Arceus I used a 30 minute recipe, eh Axew?" I said as I waited for the cake to bake. "Axew Ax!"
~~TIME SKIP~~ AN HOUR LATER
I presented Cilan with my cake that I decorated with Oran berries and icing. "Wow!" Ash exclaimed, looking at it as if he wanted to gobble up the cake in a second. What a kid…and a glutton. Pansage was sitting on the green haired Pokémon Connoisseur's shoulder.
~~NORMAL P.O.V~~
Cilan was taken aback. He always said it was his role to make the food so he never expected this. Especially from Iris. "For me?" he asked, surprised. Iris nodded and said, "Happy Birthday, Cilan!" After a quick birthday song, Cilan blew out his candles and cut the cake. He gave some to the Pokémon, Ash and Iris. "Yum! Iris, how'd you make this?!" Ash said as he started gobbling the cake. Cilan nodded and said, "This cake is exquisitely good. A fine mix of sweet berries and milk icing." Iris raised her hand in protest as she said, "I just followed the recipe in the cookbook I bought."
Cilan said, pointing at his face, "You have some icing here, Iris." Iris blinked back at him. "Here?" she said as she wiped the opposite cheek that the icing was on. Ash ran off somewhere to train or something a few minutes ago. Cilan sighed. He grabbed Iris's shoulder and pulled her towards him. He licked off the icing like how a Lilypup would do. "C-Cilan! What are you doing?!" she said as she pushed herself off of him, blushing furiously. Cilan leaned back and said, "My apologizes, the icing is really addictive."
The next day, the three of them started their journey to the next city. Iris glanced at Cilan often as she wondered, How am I going to survive this? She blushed at the thought of it, earning teasing from Cilan and Ash. Little did Cilan know that she was thinking of him…
