"Eat shell!" Ash yelled, jumping to his feet to steer his wii remote. Paul sat beside him kicking Ash's legs and desperately trying to win the Mario Kart race. Ash flew through the finish line and tossed his controller in the air in his celebration. "I win!" he giggled.

"I let you," Paul growled, getting to his feet to get in Ash's face.

"Nuh-uh," Ash teased, grinning from ear-to-ear. "You were trying real hard to make me lose; you weren't even close to beating me!"

"Whatever!" Paul scoffed, knocking his controller over Ash's head. "If we went again I know I'd beat you!"

"Is that a bet?"

"You're damn right," Paul smirked. He picked Ash's remote off the floor and placed it in his hand. Pikachu sat curled up on a table, trying ever so hard to ignore the two boys obvious flirting. If he just didn't pay attention, nothing would happen, right? "And while we're at it, since I know I'll win, why don't we make it interesting?" Dammit, something's gonna happen.

"Fine!" Ash plopped down in seat, "If I win, you have to dress like a girl and enter a contest with Torterra!"

"OK, and when I win, you have to kiss me," Paul said, sitting down in his seat. His heart was beating a million mile a minute; he might as well have just said that he liked Ash as more than a friend and wanted to make out with him! If the bet bothered Ash, he didn't say anything, instead he slammed the button down to begin the race and set them up for only one.

They raced on Rainbow Road, which was, under normal circumstances, the hardest course in the game. Under the pressure of a bet with harsh consequences, it was even harder. Paul found himself trying way too hard; he flew out of the start while Ash sputtered from holding the button too soon. Paul turned his body into the turns of the road and jumped in his seat when his cart jumped over ramps and bumps. He was getting into the game as much as Ash usually did. Ash was playing roughly the same, cursing under his breath as he tried to catch Paul.

"Blue shell!" Ash shouted as he released the object and sent it to smack into Paul.

"You little bitch!" Paul snapped, shoving Ash's arm.

"Hey, no pushing!" Ash fussed, righting himself and just barely saving himself from falling off the course. "Nononono!" Ash tossed his controller down to his feet as Paul took the win.

"Ha!" Paul gloated. He turned his seat to face Ash, who looked as though he'd been smacked several thousand times with the realization stick. "My prize?"

"You're not serious, right?" Ash squeaked. He sat up in his seat and faced Paul. Paul leaned forward and dug his elbows into his legs, getting into Ash's space.

"Dead serious," Paul said in monotone. Ash nodded, glancing down at Paul's lips. He leaned forward and closed the space between them, ghosting his lips on Paul's.

"There," Ash backed away quickly. "There's the kiss."

"You call that a kiss?" Paul snickered. "Whatever." He leaned back in his seat, trying to calm his heart and the butterfrees churning in his stomach.

"What, that wasn't good enough?" Ash asked, sounding a bit offended at Paul's tone. Paul decided to see where that thought was headed, so he shook his head. "Fine!" Ash hopped up and stood in front of Paul, leaning down mashing their lips back together. Ash tossed Paul back down and crossed his arms, trying to seem mad even though his head was spinning. "Was that better?"

Paul smirked, "Much. Wanna play again?"

I dunno. I really just dunno.
