Thanks again to everyone who reviewed chapter 2. Here's chapter 3.
Chapter 4 Birthday Surprise
It had been two months since Ash and Pikachu arrived at Petalburg city and had been staying with May and her family, and it was safe to say that they hadn't worn out their welcome. Norman and Max never got tired of talking about pokemon with Ash, and he never got tired of telling them about his experiences in the different regions that he'd been to.
Another person that was happy that Ash hadn't left was May. She never missed an opportunity to talk or spend time with him. Ash of course loved every minute of it. The only thing that annoyed Ash was whenever Max came and took him away from May to talk about training or have practice battles. Ash being the kind hearted, well mannered guest was all too happy to oblige and held his frustration at bay.
It was fast coming up to Ash's 21st birthday and May wanted to throw a surprise party for him.
"That's a wonderful idea May," said Caroline as she prepared dinner. "We just need to make sure Ash doesn't find out."
"That won't be too hard; he wouldn't know what was going on unless we stick a big neon sign under his nose."
"That's not very nice May," replied Caroline holding back a laugh. "So who are we going to invite?"
"Brock, Misty, Tracey, Dawn, Gary, Richie, Harley, Zoey, Mrs K (May's name for Ash's mum), Prof. Oak, Prof. Birch, Prof. Elm and Prof. Rowan, and a few other friends,"
"Ok. We need to notify them and get Ash out off the house on his birthday so we can prepare,"
"Ok, I'll start making calls."
So May went off to start calling everyone who was coming to the party and Caroline started making a list of things needed for the party.
June 18th-Ash's Birthday
When Ash woke up on the morning of his birthday he was hopping no one remembered because he hated people fussing over him like they always do on this day. He said morning to Pikachu who replied with his version of 'happy birthday". After Ash got dressed he made his way down the stairs and was stopped suddenly by Max who was blocking his path.
"Morning Max,"
"Morning Ash," replied Max who was quickly thinking of a way to get Ash out of the house so that Caroline and May could start getting the surprise party ready. "Hay, do you wanna go for a hike through the national park today?"
"Sure, why not. Let's go."
Max then let Ash out the door and gave May the signal that they were gone. May then went and told Caroline who called up Delia so they could start getting preparations under way.
6pm that night
Ash and Max made their way back to the house after a long day of walking.
"Thanks Max. That was a lot of fun. I didn't know that there were so many pokemon in one area,"
"Yeah, I always enjoy talking a walk in the park,"
"I know what you mean. Well, I hope dinner's ready cause I'm starving,"
"Same here."
Ash was about to open the door to the house when he noticed the lights were out.
"That's weird; there must be a power out."
Ash then proceeded to open the door and walked in.
"Hello. We're back. Is the power out or something?"
The next second the lights turned on and about 50 people jumped up and said "HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASH".
"Thanks guys, but you didn't have to do this,"
May walked up to Ash and gave him a hug and said. "Yeah, but I wanted to give you a birthday that you'd remember."
As May pulled away Ash kissed her on the cheek saying "Thanks May, you're a real friend."
This made May blush as red as the dress she was wearing. The two looked at each other for a while before they were interrupted by Brock.
"So, are we gonna get this party on the road or what guys?"
"Yeah, let's party," said Ash and May together.
Everyone proceeded to the ball room at the back of the house. When Ash entered he saw that they had gone to a lot of trouble with the decorations and the food, so he decided that tonight would be a one off from fussing. The D.J. turned the music on and everyone started to dance and eat and drink.
After Ash had done his rounds of talking to everyone and dancing, he decided to go outside and take a break. As he walked out he saw Pikachu sitting on a bench with a bottle of ketchup that he'd stolen.
"Hay buddy," said Ash as he sat down with Pikachu and started patting him. "You know, tonight's not just about me," Pikachu looked up from his bottle of ketchup and stared at Ash. "It's been ten whole years since we've been together."
Pikachu jumped on Ash and gave him a hug. As this was happening, May had come out looking for Ash. When she saw Ash and Pikachu hugging she just couldn't help but stop walking and watch the two.
"We've had our ups and downs," said Ash to Pikachu. "But I'm glad that you've stuck by me all this time."
"Pika," replied Pikachu.
May then started walking again and started talking.
"Sorry to interrupt," she said. "But the birthday boy is needed."
"Ok," replied Ash standing up. "I'm coming."
May then grabbed Ash's hand and told him to close his eyes. Ash did what he was told and let himself be led by May. After May led Ash to a large table she told him to open his eyes.
"Wow!" exclaimed Ash.
In front of him was a large chocolate cake with a Pikachu and 21 candles on it.
"Time to cut the cake," said Max.
"Yeah, and if there's crumbs on the knife you have to kiss the closest girl," said Brock.
So Ash cut the cake and the knife came out with crumbs on it, and it just so happened that May was standing right next to Ash.
"You know the rule Ash," said May. "So kiss me."
"Alright then," said Ash.
May had turned her cheek towards Ash, but Ash lent in and kissed May passionately on the lips. The whole room went silent and Ash and May lingered their kiss for a little longer then intended. As they broke apart they blushed as red as red can get, and 1000 and 1 thoughts came flooding into Mays head.
"Wow," thought May. "I can't believe that happened."
Her thoughts were rudely interrupted by Max.
"Ash and May sitting in a…."
He was cut short by May hitting him in the head with her mallet.
The party all laughed at this and went back to enjoying themselves.
As the night wore on the D.J. played the slow music for the last dance of the night. Ash looked around he saw many couples dancing. There was his mum and Prof. Oak, Gary and Misty, Caroline and Norman, Brock and Mays friend Emma, (Brock finally got a girl), and many others. The next second May had grabbed Ash's hand and was dragging him onto the dance floor. May put her arms around Ash's neck and he put his around May's waist. They stayed like this till the song ended. Ash then gave his thankyou speech and wished everyone a good night as they left the house.
After everyone had gone Ash, May, Max, Caroline and Norman cleaned up and then sat around in the living room talking about the night. Eventually Max, Caroline and Norman left and went to bed. This left Ash and May alone watching TV. After a while May finally decided to ask the question that had been on her mind all night.
"Ash?"
"Yeah?"
"Why did you kiss me like that at your cake cutting?"
"Cause its part of the rule, you even said so yourself,"
"No, I mean why on the lips?"
"Cause I felt like it and…." Ash trailed of while thinking about what to say next. "I should just tell her how I feel. It's not like her reaction could spoil tonight," Ash thought to himself.
"I'm waiting," said May.
"And, I really, really like you. That kiss was my attempt at trying to tell you,"
"You like me Ash?" asked May while thinking, "He's finally admitting it. Yay."
"Yeah, I do. A lot,"
"I really, really like you Ash,"
"Really?"
"Yeah. And this is my special birthday present for you."
May then proceeded to kiss Ash on the lips. Ash, who was taken by surprise, started to kiss back. As the two started passionately making out, Ash picked May up and carried her up the stairs to Mays room. They quickly pulled off their clothes while continuing to make out. Ash could feel the firmness of Mays breasts as she pulled him down on top of her on the bed. Ash then kissed May on the lips. As they broke a part Ash started to speak.
"I love you May,"
"I love you, to Ash."
Ash kissed May again as they lost themselves to their passion.
The next morning Ash woke thinking that what happened last night had been a dream. He felt a breath of air on his chest and looked down to see May lying on his shoulder with her arm across his chest. Ash gently slid May off of him so that he wouldn't wake his sleeping beauty. He then proceeded to get dressed and went down the stairs to the kitchen. As he got there he noticed Pikachu was passed out on the counter. (Pikachu had snuck a bit of wine and it knocked him out cold).
He was making pancakes, (yes, Ash can cook), when May appeared in the kitchen wearing her bath robe.
"Morning," she said as she walked over to Ash and kissed him.
"Morning to you to," replied Ash kissing May back.
This proved to Ash that last night wasn't a dream.
The couple ate breakfast and then sat on the couch and watched TV. Ash had his arm around May, who was leaning on his shoulder and starting to doze off. When Max came down the stairs he noticed Ash and May. Ash saw Max looking and proceeded to give him a thumbs-up and a big smile. Max then went into the kitchen with a big smile on his face. As Max disappeared, Ash looked down at May and started to think.
"That was defiantly the best birthday ever."
He then kissed May on the forehead and went back to watching TV.

End of part 4. Hope you enjoyed this part as much as I did writing it. You MayxAsh fans can now stop worrying when they were going to get together. It has now happened.
