Warning: Slight bashing of May in an anecdote. Around that, she's all good.

What dress should I wear? It was still only noon as Dawn was searching through all of her dresses thinking about which one to wear. The restaurant was pretty classy. It has a dress code, and does not let anyone in that is not properly dressed. Like no blue jeans or sneakers. She had a lot of dresses, and she hasn't even worn all of them yet. Some were even designed by herself. As she did was searching, she continued to think about Ash.

Ash is so good to me. He's...so awesome. Like letting me buy all these dresses. He doesn't mind shopping at all as long as it's with me. And he's so much more. He's so sweet. I really love him.

Dawn had a bright smile on her face as she kept searching. Dawn put a light blue dress up to herself to see how it looks. "Like it Buneary?"

"Bun!" cheered Buneary.

"Let me bring Ash in here and ask him what he likes."

Dawn left the room and headed toward the living room. Ash was talking on the phone with Professor Oak. Ash was calling a few friends to tell them about his plan to ask Dawn to marry him. Dawn heard Ash talking while walking down the hallway.

"Yeah, I'm gonna ask her tonight," Ash told Oak.

"Well, good luck Ash. Make sure tonight goes a lot smoother than the very beginning of your Pokemon journey," the Professor joked.

Ash just gave a nervous laugh. "You wanna know how I'm gonna ask?"

After hearing that, Dawn quickly turned on her heels, put her hands over her ears and sprinted back to the bedroom and closed the door behind her.

"I don't hear anythiiiiiing," Dawn said to herself in a sing songy voice. I definitely do not want anymore surprises ruined. Buneary who was still in the room just looked at its trainer amused.

Dawn then laid down on the bed and started thinking again. She tried not to think about it too much because she was barely able to stay calm when she thought about it...but she couldn't help it. Dawn smiled again as her mind raced.

I wonder if Ash plans to hide the ring in whatever I order to eat. Maybe a waiter will come with the ring and give it to Ash or something. Maybe he'll wait until were out. Or maybe he'll do it the old fashioned way. That would be just a lovely as any other way. I can image Ash kneeling down on one knee in front of me right now.

Dawn imaged that exact thought. Ash on one knee in front of her, his cute smile that brightens her day every day, with the beautiful engagement ring held out. Dawn blushed a deep red and let out a dreamy sigh.

Ash then came into the bedroom and saw Dawn lying on the bed. "What you up to?"

"Nothing, just checking out what to wear, tell me what looks good," Dawn said now standing up.

"Okay, but after I come back, I gotta go do something, I'll be back soon."

"Where are you going?"

"Umm...just gonna go make sure the restaurant...still holds our reservations..."

"I'm pretty sure they still have it, but ok," Dawn chuckled with a smile. She had the idea that Ash is probably actually making sure his plans work out smoothly.

Ash smiled back and said, "Ok."

Ash opened the apartment door to leave and Dawn was behind him. On the other side the door was their close friend May, standing outside with a hand up to knock on the door.

"Hey you two!" May said cheery, putting her hand down.

"Hi, May," Ash and Dawn greeted in unison.

"Come in, I was just about to go out, I'll be back in a while. You and Dawn can catch up while I'm gone." Ash told May.

"Oh, ok, see ya." May replied walking in.

"See ya," Ash said walking out and closing the door behind him.

"Sit down May, we have to catch up!" said Dawn leading them to the couch.

Dawn and May are both close friends, even though they haven't always been. A long time ago they used to fight. They would fight about Ash. When they were young, both of them had feelings for Ash and would fight over him. Ash would try to calm both of them down whenever they argued, but it never worked. Then, when Ash and Dawn both started dating, May became really upset and stopped talking to Ash for a while, even though Ash still wanted to be friends with May. After a while, May came to the realization that Ash did love Dawn, and that she was okay with it. She soon returned and rekindled her strong friendship with Ash, and also became a friend of Dawn's and that also made Ash happy. Eventual Dawn and May became good friends. Dawn and May always keep in touch now and are really close.

"Is there anything I can get you May?"

"No, I'm fine, lets just talk," Dawn and May both talked for a while when May asked. "So what have you and Ash been up to recently?"

"Well, Ash and I are going out to a restaurant tonight."

"Ooooo, where?"

"That really fancy one called, 'Kanto Frontier.'"

Then out of nowhere, May started getting really excited, "Really!!!!?? Ooooo, can I go to? I've never been there, I can find a date, they can raise your reservation to four can't they? Please, please, please can I come? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?"

Dawn started to panic a little, "Umm, I...don't think so..." Dawn said frowning slightly.

May frowned, "Awwww, why not? Pleeeeeeeease? I know you two want to be alone with each other, but I've always wanted to go there." May was in a frenzy and obviously really wanted to go. She was ready to beg.

Dawn tried to let out a smile and told her, "I'm sorry May, but..."

"Is there a reason?"

"Umm...no, but you can't"

"Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!"

"Please, stop May..." Dawn said quietly.

"Just give me a reason..."

"Ugh, ok, there is a good reason," Dawn admitted with slight annoyance.

May was a little surprised wondering what the reason could be. "What is it?" she asked now calmed down.

Dawn looked down then back up at May and smiled, "Ash is planning to propose to me tonight."

May let out a long, drawn out gasp and had a wide open smile on her face as she looked at Dawn in awe. It then turned into a confused look as she asked, "How do you know?"

"I accidently overheard Ash talking about with Pikachu...he doesn't know I know. I don't want his plans to be ruined so I don't plan on letting him know. Thankfully I don't know anything else, only that he plans on asking tonight. I have no idea on anything else."

May squealed and took a hold of Dawn's hands, "Wow Dawn, I'm so happy for you and Ash. How do you feel?"

Dawn let a loud girlish squeal of her own as her hands started shaking and said "I feel great May. I'm so happy and excited. I can barely hold still." They then both giggled and smiled at each other.

"You'll make me bridesmaid, right Dawn?"

"Of course May. Just make sure not to tell anyone else, until Ash tells you himself." They then both pulled in for a friendly hug.

Meanwhile outside of "Kanto Frontier," Ash was talking on his phone. "So...it knows what to do right?"

"Yeah, don't worry. It'll be ready when you need it," replied a voice over the phone.

"Great."

Like it? Sorry if it wasn't as amusing as the previous chapter.

I can't believe I wrote this much.

Not sure when I'll update again. I will though, don't worry.
