The atmosphere was so intense and thick that not even the sound of playing wild Pokémon, that can be heard from the balcony, could break it. The assigned Pokémon egg was left on the chair, that was converted into a makeshift soft bed to keep it warm and from cracking. The trainer from Pallet Town and the blonde bookworm stood still from their position; Ash was trying to make eye contact with her so he can have her full attention when he gives his apology, but Lillie has her eyes locked to the ground with her hands held together over her chess, completely flustered.
"Lillie."
The said girl did not look up, instead she slightly turned to the side.
From her reaction, he must get her attention another way. He decided a simple, 'I'm sorry,' will not do much. Perhaps he should take it up a notch.
Qucikly, he went down to his hands and knees with his head bowed all the way to the ground. His actions shocked Lillie from out of her trance when she saw the experienced Pokémon trainer on the ground.
This surprised her, she did not expected him to do this, "Eh? Ash?"
Ash mentally celebrated when he head that he got her full attention, but quickly stop to do what he had to do.
"I'M SORRY!"
Lillie gasps. He was apologizing. Not knowing him that much since she avoided him ever since he entered into her life from out of nowhere, she half-expected him to apologize, but never like this. She blush, no one has ever apologized to her like this.
"I'M SORRY FOR THAT KISS! I'M SORRY THAT I DIDN'T APOLOGIZE TO YOU SOONER! IT'S ALL MY FAULT!"
Lillie felt her heart crack, she did not know that kiss was also eating him out. Regret started to fill her as she starts to rue all those times she avoided him. Sure she was embarrassed, but Ash must have been feeling terrible ever since then. She was so embarrassed with herself that she did not take his feelings into consideration. She feels horrible, she never wants to hurt anyone.
When Ash lifted his head up, Lillie felt her heart break even more. Ever since she met him, she never saw him so broken before. His face lacks that bright smile of his face and his remorseful eyes really pulled on her heartstrings.
"I'M SO SORRY! I'LL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU! I'LL EVEN LET YOU SLA-!"
Lillie could no longer bare it as she starts shedding tears, "THAT'S ENOUGH!"
"Ah!" Ash gasps as he stood up, seeing that his action made the opposite effect, "You're crying! Oh please don't cry! I'm so-"
He was cut off when Lillie caught him off guard by wrapping arms around, pulling him into an embrace.
Lillie then presses her face against his chess, "Just stop it already!"
It was muffled, but Ash heard and just stop. He stood there, not moving a muscle, waiting for Lillie's words. He soon felt his shirt started to dampen from Lillie's tear. A little uncertain with what he should be doing, he wraps his arms around her, returning the embrace. He rub up and down her back while patting the top of her back, comforting her and trying to make her stop crying.
They stood there motionless in each other's embrace for feels like a century when only minutes has only passed. When Lillie was done, she pulls back from him and pulls out her handkerchief from her skirt-pocket.
She was about to wipe her face when Ash reach his out to the cotton fabric in her hand.
"Let me." He asked.
Lillie stares at him with looks of regret. How could she avoided this kind, young man? He's been nothing, but kind and patient with her and she just ignore him like he does not even exist.
Now, she thought, she will not do that anymore.
"Okay." She let him take the white hankey. She closes her eyes as Ash wipes off the dry tears from her face. After he was done, Lillie took back her handkerchief.
"Thank you."
Ash smiles at her, which she shyly returns. Ash is glad that she is now starting to warm up to him and may even accept his apology.
Lillie then frowns, "Ash, I'm sorry."
"Huh? Why are you sorry?" Ash said with a surprised look and frown, "This is my fault."
"No, it's not!" She tried to tell him, not wanting him to feel downhearted anymore.
"Yes, it is!" Ash tells her, "That kiss wouldn't have even happened if I did not run across the course. So it is my fault."
"Yeah..." Lillie can not disagree with that reason, "but I don't blame you for that!"
"But I still made you uncomfortable, didn't I?"
Lillie fell silent, not sure if she could continue without making Ash blame himself more. She then felt his hands on her shoulder, looking back at him, she saw that Ash has a look of determination.
"If there's anything I can do for you," He started, "Name it and I'll do it to the very end."
Lillie blushes, she never knew that he was this handsome up close. Speaking of up close, this is the first time she is this to close to a boy who is not her older brother. She started to regret to never reading those dating magazines that were offered to her by Mallow, the knowledge inside those thin articles would have been great help with her current situation.
All of her time were spent on studying Pokémon, so she never gave much attention to boys her age ever since she mysteriously developed her phobia. Throughout puberty, her urges were repressed because her mind was always focused on Pokémon; after that incident, all of those repressed urges started to resurface of him and her kissing. Her eyes wanders down to his lips, which are now stern and determine. Her blush deepens when her mind wander back to the kiss.
Even though that kiss lasted a second or two, she could still remembered the sensation of her lips press against someone else's. Before, she never understood the concept of kissing, sure she understands kissing on the cheeks, forehead, and on the back of the hand as shows of affections, but on the lips she did not understand. Initially she was disgusted at the thought of kissing on the lips, but after that experienced, her views started to change.
She actually liked the kiss. And she wants to do it again.
"Ki-kiss me...on my lips."
Ash's eyes widen, "What?" He has to be dreaming he thought.
Lillie look away, her face red in embarrassment, "You said that you'll anything for me."
Ash rubs the back of his head, "Yeah, but...are you sure you want me to do that?"
His classmate thought about it for a second and nods in absolute certainty. Even with that confirmation, Ash is still reluctant to go all the way with that request. Should he do it? If he did, their second kiss might drive them apart even further. If he did not, Ash fears that he will hurt Lillie's feelings. What to do, what to do.
"That was my first kiss."
That brought him out of his thought, "Huh?"
Lillie looks at him with her face flushed, "That kiss, it was my first."
"Oh, I'm so-" Lillie cut him off by pressing a finger against his lips.
"Stop it," She said which was almost an order. After she removed her finger, she continues to speak, "Since you're my first,...I think I'll be okay with...kissing you."
That still did not make Ash any less reluctant, "Al-alright, I'll do it." but he soon complied.
Wanting to make this feel less awkward, Lillie wraps her arms around his neck albeit blushing. Ash blushes from the touch, sure Lillie hugged him not too long ago, but it was not skin-on-skin contact.
"She feels soft." He thought. He then mentally slaps himself, "No! Don't think like that! She's a person, not a thing!"
"Yo-you can ki-kiss me now." Lillie told him as she closes her eyes with her lips slightly puckered.
He wraps his arms around her waist, "R-right."
Ash uncertainly, but lightly presses his lips against hers. When Lillie felt his lips, she instinctively returns it. It is just like before, only longer this time, giving them time to enjoy this one.
Ash's mind almost went wild, but thanks to years of controlling his urges, he has the mental power to control over his desires. He thought her skin was soft, but her lips are at a whole new level. His tongue instinctively slips into the small opening of her mouth, but Ash quickly retracted it back; even so, he still got a taste of her.
She tasted sweet, "Control yourself, Ash. Control yourself" He told himself in his mind.
Lillie is enjoying herself. Although embarrassed at first, she soon relaxed and enjoys the kiss. While Ash's lips are lightly pressing against hers, she can tell his are rough, yet she strangely likes it. She then felt something foreign momentarily entered her mouth, Ash's tongue which immediately went back. Disappointment filled her, getting barely a taste of him.
Ash soon broke the kiss, "Was that okay?"
Lillie pants lightly from that short time of no air, "Yes."
Despite sounding it was already over, they were still in each other's arms and their lips were merely inches away from each other. An invisible force soon pulled the two together; this time the two meet each other in the middle with their lips more open than before. It was a full blown kiss.
Unlike the previous one, this was more passionate and heated. Despite that, Ash was holding back his urges, but that control soon disappears when he felt Lillie's tongue pocking into his mouth, wanting to enter. As her tongues pokes in, it briefly brushes against his. When Ash got her taste, his urges finally took control. Parting his lips open, he let her tongue in.
Lillie's tongue is smaller and softer compared to his and it eagerly explores his mouth, but her little exploration only lasted a single second before her tongue got fully dominated over by Ash's. The male teen enjoys her taste so much that he lick every corner of her mouth from the roof of her mouth to under her tongue while also roughly treating Lillie's tongue. Lillie moan from feeling her tongue being treated so roughly; she tried to fight back, but Ash's is just too strong for her, yet she enjoys it as she still get to taste Ash.
The two soon speared for the lack of oxygen. A thin strand of their mixed saliva connected the two by their tongue for a moment before severing. Once they filled up their lungs with air, they completely separated from their embrace. Silence soon follows
Despite the silence, Ash has a smile on his face with a distant expression, "That... sure was... something."
Lillie giggles, "Yeah." Her voice sounded distant, her mind reminiscing over their third kiss.
More silence follows until the door opens and coming in is their friend.
"Hey guys!" Mallow waves to them when she entered the room, "Dinner's ready."
The chef frowns when she notices that her friends were not acknowledging her entrance into the room; Ash did not even get excited over the mention of food.
"Well... lets eat, I guess." Ash nervously said. He motions her to the door, wanting her to go first.
Lillie smiles at him before getting the Pokémon egg into her arms, "Oh... yes. Time to eat." She walks out the door without saying or acknowledging the green-haired girl.
"What... happened here?" Mallow tried to ask Ash, but the raven-haired boy said nothing to her as well.
The chef huffs at their rudeness, "Geez."
Up next, we'll see how those two kisses will affect their relationship.
