A/N: Hello! Sorry it took so long for the second part to come out but here it is! This one takes place in Kalos, no specific area. Here is Ash's side and thoughts on Misty. Pokeshipping :)

A/N*** I edited this chapter a bit, thanks again Anonymous101 for the heads up, I appreciate it!

I love...Her

"I'm one key away from being able to compete for the title Kalos Queen. I'm feeling so nervous as the time gets closer, my adventure with Ash will be over,"

"Not only that but, this feeling, my feelings for Ash are starting to consume me, I feel so strong that I have to tell him, but when or how?"

"But the real question is, just what does Ash feel?"

"Serena?"

The honey blonde in question spun around with a rapid beating heart.

"Everything alright?"

Ash asked quietly as to not to disturb the sleeping Lumious City siblings from their slumber.

You take in a deep breath, he makes your knees tremble and you begin to get nervous. You steady yourself and instead of Answering the teen back, you surprise the both of you by what comes out of your mouth.

"Ash, there is something I need to tell you"

Ash's eyebrows shot up and gave you his full attention silently allowing you to go ahead and speak.

"Ash, I really like you. As in like you, like you, a lot. I-I just can't keep it inside anymore and I feel that you should know and I hope that you like me too?"

The words tumbled out of the young girls mouth so quickly out of sheer nervousness. Figuring if she said it slowly, she would've deterred the conversation and not tell him, again.

She was watching Ash's face, to try to figure out what exactly was going through his mind. Just what was he thinking about and ultimately what were his feelings, the nerves she felt crashed into her like a stormy wave in the ocean crashing against a pile of boulders.

The handsome teen blinked a few times and waited to see if she was done speaking so he could go ahead and have his turn.

"Serena", Ash said slowly praying that this comes out right, not wanting to break the girls heart into pieces at what he was going to say. He continued,"You are a very sweet girl and an awesome friend. I think it was nice of you to want to find me after seeing me on the news cast months ago. But, I need to be honest too. See the thing is Serena, I knew of your feelings. I knew that you liked me after traveling for a few weeks. But, I am truly sorry that I don't feel the same way you do. I see you as a friend and I am flattered that you like me, I just hope you understand that I simply can't return your feelings and I hope that you would still like to be friends?"

Serena looked at Ash with a sad but knowing expression," Ash you like someone already don't you?"

Ash's cheeks burned as he turned red practically confirming the girls question.

"Well I uh..."

Serena smiled at him,"It's the girl you gave you that lure and the pink handkerchief, isn't it?"

If you thoughts Ash turned red before, his whole body felt as if Charizard unleashed a flamethrower on him making his core temperature rise, the trainer now sweating, other than Pikachu no one else knew how he felt about a certain gym leader from his home region.

"How did you know about those two things?" Asking quietly, all of sudden feeling shy which is out of character for him.

She giggled,"Bonnie and I saw them in your hand one night and never asked you about it. Besides, you do mention her name a lot, you talk about all your friends but the name "Misty" always gets you eager to talk about her accomplishments as Kanto's top gym leader. That and I noticed you do talk to her on the phone more than anyone else."

Ash smiled,"Yeah, no one other than Pikachu knows about how I feel. It's wierd I never told anyone this before honestly. Misty, I more than just like her, I may be young but when it comes to her, I have fallen in love."

Serena's eyes widened at the word "love".

Ash fought his blush as he continued," No girl makes me feel the way she does. All my other female friends including you and Bonnie, you are all like sisters to me but Misty, she's so special. The girl is my driving force and I fell for her so long ago when we were just ten. Now at sixteen I need to tell her, even if she doesn't feel the same, she needs to know."

"Tell her after the Kalos League. But, not on the phone though. Go to her in Cerulean and tell her face to face. Who knows she just may like you back?"

With that Serena bid goodnight to Ash and left him in his thoughts,"Hm, alright after here I'll go to Cerulean. Oh Mist, I hope you love me too"
