After everyone left the contest hall they all went to the pokemon center.

"May are you okay," Max asked. "I mean you haven't said much since we left the contest hall."

"Yeah are you feeling okay?" Ash asked concerned for his girlfriend, noticing that she wasn't acting like herself.

"I'm fine you guys I guess I'm just tired," May said. But what was really bothering her was Amber. She kept thinking about her encounter earlier that day with her. I would love to put Amber in her place and beat her sorry butt in the Christmas Contest coming up. May thought.

Ash had trouble believing her. I wonder why May won't tell me what's wrong. I can tell something's bothering her, oh well maybe I am wrong she could be tired. We did have a long day today. Ash tried to shake the thought but he couldn't. I know what I can do to help her feel better! Then he realized that everyone else went off without him. After everyone had dinner some evening training and then headed off to bed.

Yawn "I'm really tired I need sleep," May said drifting off to sleep.

"Next let's welcome May from Petalburg City," Marilyn Meridian, the MC of the contest said.

"Alright beautifly use silver wind," May said as she released beautifly from its pokeball. It was a huge success beautifly's silver wind was the best May had ever seen it. Beautifly was surrounded by beautiful sparkles.

"An amazing silver wind attack from May's beautifly," Marilyn said. "This will be hard to beat folks, let's see what the judges give May for her fantastic performance." Nurse Joy, Raul Contesta, and Sukizo all gave May a ten.

"And it's a perfect score of thirty from the judges!" Marilyn said. Then the audience started cheering for May.

"May! May! May! May!" Then May heard Ash's voice.

"May! Wake up May!" He said trying to wake her up.

"Yeah Ash, what is it?" May answered drowsily.

"Come with me, I have something to show you," he said grabbing her hand.

They quietly tip-toed through the hallway trying not to wake anyone, once they were out of the pokemon center Ash took May up onto the roof.

"Ash, what are we doing up here?" May asked confused.

"I thought it would be nice to sit up here and watch the sunrise together. I wanted to do something for you because you were feeling so bad yesterday."

"Ash you have got to be the sweetest boyfriend I've ever had." May said smiling.

"I thought that I've been the only boyfriend you've ever had." Ash said looking confused.

"I know but you know what I mean." May said winking at him.

"Um, not really n-," then he was cut off when May pulled his body closer to hers and pressed her lips up against his. Ash was shocked at first but then he relaxed and kissed her back. He put his arms around her waist and pulled her even closer. May ran her hand through Ash's hair; she could feel Ash breathing into her slightly parted lips. She let her tongue start to run up and down his mouth. They pulled apart after nearly five minutes and went to go meet everyone else for breakfast. \

"Okay guys," Brock asked. "What are your plans today? Are we going to spilt up or did you guys all want to stay together."

"Well I wanted to go around town with Ash today," May said.

"So they can kiss," Max said smiling deviously at his sister.

"No so he could also help me train."

"And kiss."

"And look around town," May said becoming enraged.

"While kissing," Max said.

"MAX! IF YOU DON'T STOP RIGHT NOW I SWEAR I AM GOING TO KICK YOUR" May screamed but was cut off when Ash put his hand over her mouth.

"Okay, you guys could do that and I was going to go shopping for supplies today." Brock said.

"Okay well could I come with you Brock," Miley asked.

"Sure anyone else want to come?"

"No I was also planning on training today." Ashley said.

"Yeah and I was going to help her," Lauren said.

"Could I come watch you Ashley?" Max asked.

"Of course you can Max," Ashley said.

"Alright now that we know what we are all doing for the day, let's meet back here at around 5:00," Brock said.

"Okay," everyone said in unison.

Ash and May were walking hand in hand down the sidewalk going from store to store and talking.

"So May when did you want to start training today?" Ash asked.

"Um I was thinking that we could go into a few more stores and then we can start training."

As they continued to walk down the street they were spotted by someone.

Ooh cute boy alert. Amber thought to herself as she saw Ash walking down the road.

"Oh May I just forgot I have some really important things I need to do today," Ash said. "So could I just meet you for training at the pokemon center at 3:00?"

"Yeah I guess so," May said confused and disappointed.

"Great thanks," he said as he ran in the other direction.

Now is my chance. Amber thought as she followed Ash. Wait! I can't just go up to him I have to have a reason. I've got it!

"Alright Azurill come on out," she said releasing it from its pokeball.

"Azu Azurill. (What is it Amber?)" It asked.

"I need you to stay here and act like I lost you." Amber said.

"Azurill? (Why?)"

"You'll see now will you do it for me?"

"Azu Azurill rill (You got it.)"

"Thanks."

Amber looked down the street and found Ash walking towards a jewelry shop. She ran up to him trying to catch up with him. She finally was close enough that she could touch him.

"Excuse me?" She asked. "Will you please help me?"

"Sure what's wrong?" Ash asked confused.

"It's my poor Azurill. I can't find her anywhere, she was my first pokemon and I don't know what I would do without her." Amber said fake tears forming in her eyes.

"Yeah of course I'll help you." Ash said.

"Thanks," Amber replied. "I last saw her over by the antique store but then I lost her."

"Okay lets start there then." Ash said as they ran in that direction.

They searched for twenty minutes trying to find Azurill. Okay Azurill you can come out now. Amber thought. No sooner Azurill came running towards Amber. It jumped into her arms and seemed ecstatic to see her trainer again.

"Oh Azurill! I'm so glad you're alright!" Amber said. Then she turned to Ash and hugged him. Ash blushed bright red but hugged her back. "Thank you so much for helping me."

"You're welcome. By the way my name is Ash and I'm a trainer from Pallet Town."

"Well Ash as payment for helping my find Azurill would you like to join me for lunch my treat."

"Sure thanks that would be great." Wow she is really nice and pretty cute too. Ash thought.

May looked at the clock tower, it was 3:30.

"Where is he? He was supposed to meet me here a half an hour ago." May said wondering where in the world Ash was. Just then a young man with brown hair was running towards May.

"Excuse me miss." He said.

"Yes," May replied.

"I'm sorry to bother you but I've been trying to find you all day. I found your bag in the department store downtown and I wanted to make sure you got it," he said.

"Oh well thank you I'm glad you found it. What's your name?"

"I'm Daniel Smith but you can call me Danny."

"Well thank you Danny for bringing this to me." May said. Then she glanced at the clock tower again.

"Are you waiting for someone?"

"Yeah my boyfriend," May said. "He said he was going to meet me here at 3:00 to help me train for the contest but I haven't seen him since this morning."

"Do you mean the Christmas Contest?" Danny asked.

"Yeah."

"Oh well I could help you train. I'm entering the contest too and I could use the practice. So would you like to have a practice battle with me?"

May thought about it for a minute. "Thanks Danny I would love to."

Ash and Amber spent the whole afternoon together hanging out around town and getting to know each other.

"Well Ash this has been a great afternoon. I hope I will see you again soon." Amber said giving Ash a good-bye hug and walked off.

Ash looked at his watch it was 5:00.

"Looks like I'm right on time," he said as he entered the pokemon center. "Hey Brock. Where's Miley?"

"Oh she went to go put her bags in her room and Max, Lauren, and Ashley are in there rooms too." Brock said.

"Where's May then isn't she here?"

"I thought you were with May." Brock said.

Ash then realized that he was so busy with Amber that he forgot all about May.

"Crap!" Ash said.

"What's the matter Ash?" Brock asked.

"I was supposed to meet May at 3:00 to help her train," Ash said as he ran out the door. Oh no I have to find her. She's gonna kill me when she finds out that I forgot about her. Ash thought. He was to busy thinking to watch where he was going and ran right into someone.

"Ouch!" Danny said as he and Ash both landed on the ground.

"Oh I'm sorry," Ash said getting up and helping Danny off the ground.

"Its okay dude I'm okay," Danny said. Then Ash heard a girl's voice.

"Danny are you okay I saw you fall." May said running towards them.

"May!" Ash said. "I'm so sorry I forgot about you today I promise I'll never do it again."

"It's okay Ash. Danny helped me train today so it's no big deal." May said.

"Well May I'll see you around." Danny said.

"Bye Danny." May said as she waved at Danny who waved back and disappeared over the hill. "Hi sweetie." May said as she kissed Ash.

"Wait so you're not mad at me." Ash said confused.

"No you're fine but don't ever do it again." May said.

"Alright I promise I won't. Come on let's go meet everyone inside."

So everyone meet in the pokemon center and went on to dinner and talked about there day and what everyone did. Then everyone went off to there rooms to go to bed. May woke up in the middle of the night.

"Ugh I can't get back to sleep. I'll go see Ash maybe he's awake too."

She quietly tip-toed out of her room so she didn't wake Max up. She came into Ash's room and saw him sleeping. Ash is so cute when he's asleep.

She quietly went over to him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then Ash spoke subconsciously.

"Mmm…Amber." May gasped. She went back to her room and sat on her bed. She knew that she was definitely not going to get any sleep that night.
