Okay, here is the Second Chapter to Façade. I know it seems like any other Ikarishipping fanfic, but I'm definitely going to put in some twists. Thanks to TakashiRika and Kojilover04 for reviewing! It means a bunch! Also, I figured out a whole lot of mistakes from the first chapter. I don't mind if you point them out ^^; And, NO, there is no secks in this story. That's why it's rated T.
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon, if I did, it would be really messed up and you wouldn't know it existed.
Previously on Façade: ~PAUL POV~
"What's that?" Dawn asked innocently staring at the cooler.
"Oh, it's just something to spice up the game." May giggled.
I had a queasy feeling inside of my stomach.
Please don't let this be what I think it is. I pleaded to myself inside my head.
May reached over Drew's lap and lifted the top of the cooler. Dawn gasped when she saw was inside, shocked to know what it was. My stomach dropped to the core of the earth as I leaned over to peer what was inside.
Beer.
Luck definitely wasn't on my side today.
Façade
Chapter Two: Hangovers
~Dawn's POV~
Where the hell am I? Ugh, I feel horrid. I felt my head resting on something soft. Since when was my pillow black? My eyes were forcibly opened as I realized what I was sleeping on. I flinched silently, trying not to wake him up. I…fell asleep on his chest… I mentally freaked before I got up groggily. My whole self was a mess. My hair was defying gravity and my clothes where crumpled and wrinkled.
Well, I don't think I'll ever play Truth or Dare with May. I cringed from the memories of last night.
I think I made out with Paul…EW!
I went to the bathroom to freshen up. Luckily, I brought a comb with me. I quickly swiped my comb through my hair, using water to flatten it. I washed my face, changed my clothes (A/N: Yes, she always has a spare change of clothes with her. Strange? I think not. Okay…maybe) and re-applied my make-up. I felt my stomach lurch when I finished my mascara. I quickly puked into the toilet, feeling some-what better.
I glanced at my Poketch to check the time. "10:50am!" I screeched on shock. "Oh, GOD I'm GOING TO BE LATE!" I jumped and ran out the door. I quickly called Reggie for the Limo. Luckily he made it here quickly enough that I wouldn't be super late. "Reggie, I have to get to the set by 11:00am!" I said quickly, almost fumbling over my own words.
"Okay, don't worry!" Reggie reassured as he stomped down on the petal, causing the limo to accelerate sharply.
"Eep." Dawn squealed as she was flung all the way to the back of the Limo.
It was only mere minutes when Dawn arrived at the studio. She sighed in relief and stepped out, checking her Poketch again. 10:58 just turned into 10:59. Dawn jumped and dashed into the building, huffing from running through the lobby and making her way up the steps to the small set. She approached the door and burst inside.
"There you are!" Jun exclaimed and ran towards me. "We are going to wrap this up today!" Jun chanted determinedly.
I nodded in approval. Gary smirked when he saw the determination flash through my eyes.
"We can do this!" I fist pumped into the air and hopped towards Gary.
"Okay, Scene 20, act 15, Go." Jun called out from the sides. (A/N: I have no idea what scene so I just made it up ;)
Gary and I looked at each other, our eyes shone in the light that was set on us. It was like a perfect scene, now all that was needed was the action.
I grabbed onto Gary's hands, my face reflected joy even though hot tears streamed down my face.
"I love you." The words slipped out of my mouth smoothly, my emotions overpowering the aura in the room.
Gary smiled a genuine smile and cupped my cheek. He leaned down slowly, creating a dramatic moment. I tip-toed up to reach his lips.
At this point, I was sure that Jun was going to stop us, but silence lingered in the air.
I closed my eyes once our lips touched. The contact sent chills down my spine. He pulled away with an adorable blush on his face. It was only a little peck.
Subconsciously, I leaned towards Gary, placing my hands on his chest. I pushed him back into another kiss. I wanted more. I craved more.
I need a boyfriend…I groaned in my head and smashed my lips against Gary's.
He deepened the kiss and snaked his arm around my waist. Is that…cherry? I thought to myself when I tasted his lips. I tried not to disturb the scene so I kept quiet. My inner self's face was contorted with disgust, but my outer shell had put on a passionate face. My eyes were closed, my tears were already dry. Our bodies were pushed together in a disturbing…err…steamy.
"AND," Jun called holding his hand in the air. He had watched us, lounged on his 'director's chair.'
"That's a wrap!" I jumped up. Everyone in the crew relaxed and set their things down. Gary and I broke apart heaving and huffing for air.
"Whoa, you changed a lot Dawn!" Jun shouted and patted my head. Gary nodded to approve of the statement.
"U-uh…I-I did?" I stuttered, embarrassed from the compliments.
"Yeah, you couldn't kiss like that yesterday." Gary raised a brow, and a confused look entered his face.
"Hmm…," Jun began tapping his chin thoughtfully. "Did something happen to you last night?" Jun asked.
I blushed furiously as I shook my head. "N-n-no…Nothing happened…" I stuttered again. 'Dammit, why can't I act now? I have to stutter?' I thought angrily, mentally slapping myself.
"So, tell us what happened." Gary pushed my into the conversation, I blushed again, trying to remember what happened last night.
"I don't exactly know. All I remember is Truth or Dare, Beer, and waking up on someone's chest. Thank God we weren't naked." I rolled my eyes.
"You sure you weren't naked?" Jun asked quickly.
"Yes!" I hissed, making Jun and Gary jump.
"Well, who was it?" Gary asked again curiosity filled his voice.
"Curiosity killed the cat." I snapped and grabbed my bags, getting ready to leave.
"Hey, Dawn, I need to have a meeting with you later today at 5:30. Meet me at the new restaurant downtown. It's called 'Ksala.' I'll meet up with you're new acting partner and we will go over scripts. Oh, and year something nice, it's a nice restaurant." He added slowly.
My eyes bugged out of my head. "WHAT? ANOTHER MOVIE ALREADY?" I shouted at the top of my lungs. Jun just plugged his ears.
"See ya!" Jun chuckled and ran out the door, avoiding my anger outburst slyly.
Gary patted my back to try to comfort me. I just stood there with my mouth open, staring at where Jun had left.
"He sure works you to the bone." Gary muttered. "I have to go. I have a date with Leaf. I'm going to propose, so wish me luck! Oh, and we'll invite you to our wedding." Gary winked and started for the door.
I groaned. Mixed feelings boiled inside of me. Another movie? Already? Ugh, I'm going to kill Jun. I hope my new acting partner's hot…and single…Wow. I'm so desperate.
I face-palmed and made my way out the door. I walked through the Lobby slowly, hoping that time would disintegrate, and I would finally have some rest. I realized that I had made it outside and stopped mopping.
"Why the long face?" Reggie asked once he arrived. His head tilted to the side.
"I have another movie and I just finished this one…" I sighed and got into the Limo.
"Oh…well, its okay. Hopefully you will get a big vacation after this." Reggie said. He was a rather optimistic person, but even he couldn't cheer me up. I forced a grin as he started to drive me home. Slowly, I drifted into deep though. Pointless thoughts roamed my head. My future flashed by. A mysterious man, children, and I were all smiling and laughing together. I smiled slightly. Maybe I should get a boyfriend. Plus my mom would love grandchildren.
The car slowed smoothly, so smoothly that I almost didn't realize that we were almost completely stopped. I smiled as Reggie came over and opened the door. "Thanks!" I chirped and made my way inside.
I'm definitely going to brush up on my flirting tips. I giggled and made my way inside my large mansion. It was roomy enough for my Pokemon to each get one room.
"Pip-piplup!" A blue penguin Pokemon greeted me at the door. I smiled and patted its head.
"How are you Piplup?" I asked it sweetly. It chirped back happily and put its flipper's on its chest proudly.
"Bun-Buneary!" Buneary hopped its way over to me and tackled me lightly into a hug. Pachirisu also came over, nearly shocking everyone from its hyper discharge attack.
"Guys, I have to go out tonight at 5:30." I gave all my Pokemon a wink. They all smiled happily.
"Want to help me choose what to wear?" I asked raising a brow. I directed the question mainly towards Buneary.
"Eary!" Buneary hopped onto my shoulder and we made out way upstairs. All my other Pokemon shook their head vigorously.
Once I entered my room, I jumped onto my large king-sized bed. I inhaled the pillows ravenously and propped my head up with my hand. Buneary had already started digging through my closet.
"Buneary!" Buneary gasped when it found something in my closet. I slowly sat up, curious in what she found.
"Bun-Bun-Buneary!" It cried happily and hopped out of closet quickly. She placed a silver box on the bed with a silky blue ribbon running diagonally across it on the bed.
I quickly jumped off the bed. How come I've never seen this dress before? I thought as a confused look etched across my face.
I saw that a note was tucked inside the ribbon. I felt my fingers tremble as I reached for the note.
Dear Dawn,
I'm sorry I had to move to Johto in such a short amount of time. Frank had
to move there for his job. Please take this as an apology.
Love you so much,
Mom
I smiled and remembered my mom's smiling face. I should call her once and a while, but I was always busy. Frank was her new husband, or my step-father. He was nice and sweet, so I had no worries of them together.
I picked up the box gently and placed it on my lap. Buneary watched me intently, waiting to see my reaction. Eagerly, I pulled up the top.
I gasped in amazement. I was the more beautiful dress I've ever seen. The strapless dress was an amazing silvery-gray color, with a hint of brown. A milky periwinkle belt was tied across the waist. The belt moved upwards and formed a bow on the top left shoulder. The bow was showered with a beautiful array of citrus colored diamonds. The material had puffed out from the waist and was tucked underneath the inner fabric, making a bell shape. (A/N: There is a picture on my profile if you still don't get it. -3- )
"Thanks Buneary!" I almost choked. My emotions were flying, my throat had closed up, almost like I was about to cry.
"Bun!" Buneary shouted pushing me towards the bathroom.
"Okay, okay." I smiled and gave my Buneary a hug and ran towards my bathroom down my mansion's large halls.
Surprisingly, the dress had slipped on easily. The silky material underneath the outer fabric, made me comfortable and cool. I let my navy blue, waist length hair down and curled the ends, letting them bounce when I walked. I smiled contently and made my way over to my make up counter.
I wore light make up, my skin was already smooth, without it. I put on little mascara and light silvery eye shadow. For my lips, I just wore my favorite strawberry flavored gloss.
I smiled contently when I looked at myself and walked out. I was surprised to see Buneary already there with Piplup and Pachirisu. They were clapping happily when I walked out. I laughed and patted them all on the head affectionately.
As I flipped open my cell phone to check the time. 5:00. I still had time, but Ksala was downtown, so it would take about ten minutes to get there.
I set my phone back down to search for a hand bag or purse. Before I could start looking, Piplup shoved a hang bag into my hand. I giggled softly when I saw the blush it his face.
"It's okay Piplup, guys can have good fashion sense too!" I said softly and patted his head. "Thanks Piplup, it actually looks great!" I smiled when I saw the periwinkle bag with a silver chain dangling across the purse.
I flipped it open, dropped my wallet, lip gloss, and phone inside. "Well, I better get going!" I said patting their heads once more. "Make sure you don't break anything, and don't get into trouble okay?" I said sweetly and rushed out the door after slipping on my BCBG, open toe, silver pumps. It was connected with a small diamond belt on the front.
Quickly I dialed for Reggie, noticing that it was 5:20. Am I always late for important meetings? I groaned inwardly. Right before I could beat myself up, Reggie came in the Limo. He rushed outside and opened the door for me when he saw me tapping my feet.
"Ksala?" He raised a brow, trying to get a definite answer on the destination.
I gave a small nod and flipped open my phone. I had one new text message.
May
5:10PM
Hey, we're goin 2 chill on Saturday. We dont know where yet, but bring ur boyfriend, or some1 and well hang. :)
I sighed from the thought of having a boyfriend and rubbed my temples, trying to think about what I should message back.
"Hey, we're almost here, you're almost late, so get ready!" Reggie called from the front. I nodded and put my phone back into my purse.
Once Reggie stopped, I hopped out of the car with out his help opening the door. I checked my phone again. 5:30PM.
"Ack!" I whimpered and walked towards the restaurant as quickly as I could without ruining my hair or clothes.
I entered the restaurant as quickly as I could. One of the waitresses gasped. "Dawn Berlitz?" Her leafy green eyes were wide with shock. Her brown hair reached her shoulder.
"Yes?" I winced, not knowing I had that many fans.
"I'll get you seated right away!" She jumped scrambling for menus.
"Um, No need to worry, I'm meeting someone." I said sweetly, trying to calm her down.
"Oh, okay! Who are you meeting?" She asked, now flipping vigorously through a list of reservations.
"Um, his name's Jun." I said chewing on my lower lip. This girl seriously needs to calm down…
"Um…" She bit her lower lip and kept flipping through the list.
My stomach dropped. I started to feel uneasy about coming to this restaurant.
"Oh!" She exclaimed but was cut off by another voice behind me.
"There you are!" Jun shouted grabbing my shoulders. His face was twisted with worry. He wore a light gray suit, polished black dress shoes and a cherry red tie. His blond hair was crazy as usual.
"Yeah, I was here…hopefully on time, but I had a bit of a hold up…" I mumbled as he started to lead me to the seats.
I looked around the inside of the Ksala. The smell of vanilla and cinnamon filled the air, it was strangely relaxing. The ceiling wasn't high but the creamy white walls and deep blue carpet made the place seem a bit larger. The walls were decorated with an array of fancily designed lights.
I got back to the seat and frowned. "Where's my partner?" I furred my brows in confusion. Jun laughed softly.
"Surprisingly, he's later than you. I was going to go check up front to see if this was the right restaurant but, I found you instead." He explained nervously.
"Ah, I get it now. I was going to check for a reservation, but the lady up front kept fumbling and muttering something about my name…" I sweat dropped shaking my head.
Jun was going to open his mouth to respond but a loud shriek from the front cut him off.
"I think that could be you're partner." He chuckled in amusement.
"Ugh, great, he's another one of those people with a bunch of stalkers." I groaned and slumped back into the seat.
"Probably…" Jun shrugged. "But, I have to say that you have a lot of stalker's as well! Even when you were fourteen, you had the stalker named Conway." He gave a lop-sided smile.
"Right…" I rolled my eyes and then shivered at the thought of Conway. I wish he was dead…
More shrieks were heard from the restaurant, and they were getting louder. A waitress emerged from the corner, a familiar faced person trailing after her. His hands were shoved in his black suit pockets, is posture was slouched. He wore a dull, expressionless look on his face.
My stomach dropped as they headed closer to out table. I turned to Jun who didn't say anything, he just grinned. My mouth dropped open in horror.
The waitress stopped right in front of us. I almost puked.
"Meet, Paul. You're new Acting partner and Champion of Sinnoh." Jun gestured his hand towards the purple haired freak.
WHAT THE HELL?
