NOTICE: Ok people, I have noticed this as well and I don't know if I'm blaming this website or not yet, but the grammar and missing words are definitely not my fault. I do check this over at least 6 times before uploading it, then I double check it before publishing it. It's weird but I can't help it once it's published. I would like to thank all the people who reviewed and started following my story. :)
Ash and everyone at the table were waiting for their drink order to arrive when suddenly a familiar face popped up behind Ash.
"Hey Ash, long time no see, how's things?" Ash turned to see a tall well presented green haired man standing with 2 trays full of drinks accompanied by his brother with blue hair.
"Wow, Cilan, it's great to see you" Ash got up and helped him set out the drinks out on the table before giving him a hand shake and a manly hug.
"How's the restaurant? I heard your incredibly busy, everyone wanting a taste of the Unova life I take it" Cilan chuckled,
"Yes, of course by executing a well seasoned meal, our customers would spread the word like the smell of a broth simmering through from the kitchen" Ash smiled as he watched his old companion express his love for food, suddenly he turned to Cress,
"Hi there Cress, nice to see you again, hasn't been since I challenged your gym" Ash held out his hand for Cress to shake and as he did he smiled at Ash.
"Oh Cilan, I want you to meet some people" using the palm of his hand towards each individual, because pointing is obviously rude in the middle of a posh restaurant, he introduced everyone around the table "..this is Brock and his girlfriend Jasmine" Brock got up to shake Cilan's hand knowing he was an expert cook like he was he was and was also delighted to meet someone who took care of Ash during his journeys just like he did "..Professor Samuele Oak, my mother Delia" Cilan walked over calmly towards the Professor and shook his hand gracefully and politely and headed towards the other end to greet Ash's mother for the first time. "..oh and this is Zoey from Sinnoh and you remember Dawn?"
"Pleasure to meet all of you" he beamed suddenly turning towards Dawn "and Dawn, it's great to see you again after so long" embracing her in a hug Dawn suddenly stared beside him towards his brother Cress.
"Wow Cilan, you have a brother?" she asked curiously.
"No actually I have 2 twin brothers, I'm Cilan, this is Cress and my brother Chile is in the kitchen for the night, but I will be happy to get him later on in the evening for you so he can greet you personally" Dawn smiled at the suggestion and nodded in agreement, as she sat down at the table she look at Ash and gave him a wink, Ash knew something was up and Dawn had done something to help Zoey overcome her fear of facing Gary in front of everyone.
Cilan took certain peoples Starter orders and excused himself so he could serve other tables. Ash turned to Gary,
"Look Gary, I haven't a clue what your problem is so settle down and have fun, it's our birthday after all" Gary turned to look at Ash who was quite pissed off at this point,
"Yeah right fine, cheers then?" Gary held up a shot and brought Ash to smile and so they lightly clashed their small glasses together before knocking them back
"My Arceus Ash, take it easy please" Delia exclaimed at her son, who was enjoying himself too much to even pay attention to what she was saying.
"Delia, it's orite, they are both just having fun, you only get to be 21 once right?" Oak explained to her, though she couldn't be mad long, she loved being with her son and all of his friends.
When the starters finally arrived she stood up with a glass of wine in her hand waiting for the table to settle down "I'd like to make a toast" everyone raised their glasses, whether it was wine, beer, a shot or even water they all joined in "To Ash and Gary, Happy 21st Birthday you two" while giving them a hug and kiss on each of their cheeks "and of course good luck to Ash in his match in 3 weeks time and we'll all be there cheering him on to become Champion"
"Too Ash and Gary and to the Sinnoh Championship" everyone said in sync before taking a sip of their drinks.
Towards the end of the night as desserts were being ordered, everyone had moved around the table. Delia sat next to Professor Oak, Gary sat next to Zoey when he finally found the confidence to go up and talk to her, Paul suddenly started speaking to Candice and Ash was at the bar with Dawn.
"So Ash" Dawn glared at him looking quite tipsy "Happy Birthday" Dawn leaned in to give Ash a kiss on the lips before taking a sip of her drink,
"I'm not letting you drink that much tonight missy, now settle down!" Ash was very protective of any of his friends who were slightly drunk, especially of Dawn because now he was protecting her for so many more reasons. He led her towards the table for her to sit back down in her seat and went across to his mother who was having a conversation with the Professor.
"Mum, can I speak to you for a moment please?" Ash was sincere towards his mother, she nodded in agreement as Ash directed her to the side far enough from the table so that nobody could hear him.
"Look mum, I just want to say thank you, personally, for making a night to remember, I appreciate it all, and I couldn't of become like this without you, you do know that right?" his mothers eyes suddenly became watery,
"Oh Ash, I'm so proud of you, you have so much support and you have done from day 1, you and Gary have grown up so fast and I couldn't be prouder. Oh and of course Dawn, well what a catch my son" Ash knew that the drink was starting to talk, his mother would never say that if she was sober, he hugged her and thanked her again before leading her back to the table, before she sat down she suddenly went into her purse and brought out a black box and handed it to Ash.
"Mum, what's this?" he asked in curiosity as he opened it "A key?" he gave his mother a confused look.
"Well, you'll find out later on in the night" she smiled as she turned back to the Professor to continue their earlier conversation. Ash knew that something big was being planned as he glanced around the table looking towards each 'couple'. As he glanced over in Barry's direction he couldn't help but feel sorry for him, he was alone and needed someone to be with or keep him company so Ash got out his xtransceiver and called someone before making his way back to the table beside Dawn.
Cilan, Chile and Cress all came towards the table with their desserts they had ordered 30 minutes prior. Everyone had ordered something different, Profiteroles Tiramisu, Ice Cream, Chocolate Sundae, Pancakes and Fruit, Crepes and also Apple Pie. Dawn got up so Cilan could introduce her to Chile and while the brothers handed out the desserts. Ash suddenly stood up while holding his pint of beer before the 3 brothers left the table.
"I would just like to thank everyone at this table on behalf of myself and Gary" as he said that Gary stood up and toasted his glass in the air towards everyone before sitting back down again "for coming here tonight to celebrate our 21st, I would like to also thank Cilan, Chile and Cress for their beautiful food and cuisine and for treating us like more than customers, I appreciate it. I would also like to thank Professor Oak and my mother for all the hard work they have done to help me get to where I am today and of course to everyone here, rivals and friends who have helped me to see meaning and understanding and have always stood by me to help me become stronger, to us all, may the future be bright" everyone lifted their glasses and repeated the last line of Ash's speech before taking a drink and chowing down on the dessert.
Around 10:50pm the group had all ordered taxi's back to Pallet, Brock and Jasmine hugged and wished everyone a lovely night before heading back to Pewter City. As Ash and the group, apart from Max, Delia and Professor Oak, got into a cab, Mrs. Ketchum went towards the front to speak to the cab driver, handing him a piece of paper and whispering something in his ear until he looked at her and nodded in agreement. She waved the group goodbye along with Max and Professor Oak as they were driven off towards Pallet Town. Ash turned to his companions while edging off his seat.
"Sorry guys, but excuse me sir?" looking into the rear view mirror towards the cab driver, "What did my mother say to you?" the cab driver started laughing as everyone started to look uncomfortable,
"You'll find out soon" he replied smiling while singing along to the radio. Everyone glared at Ash like he had something to do with this.
"Look guys, I don't know what she said, maybe were going to a club or something" he finally spoke.
"Who cares! The night is still young and I still have plenty room for more drinks!" Gary blurted out waving his arms around in excitement while everyone nodded in agreement as they sung along with the cab driver to the radio. They cab stopped near Pallet Town outside a tall house with a big garden and an open gate at the front. The driver suddenly turned round and smiled at the group,
"Right, this is your stop, don't worry about the payment, It's already been taking care of, have fun" everyone got out of the car slowly not knowing what was going on, as they waved the driver off everyone turned to look at Ash.
"What? I don't know where we are!" trying to assure everyone with his honesty.
"Wait Ash" Gary shouted in a daze, "Isn't this your old house? You know from when you were growing up?" Ash stared at Gary for a moment then glanced at the house, he walked up to the fence and strolled up the path. He pulled out the black box from his pocket remembering what his mother had said to him 'You'll find out later in the night' a voice said in Ash's head, he opened the box and pulled out the key from the soft velvet cushion from underneath it and placed it in the door. He turned it a couple of time to ensure it would unlock and he opened the door. To everyone's amazement it had opened so they all followed Ash's steps and walked up the path into the house. Ash finally used his xtransceiver as a light to find a switch to the hallway. His mother had just given him a home, of his own. He took a quick detour of the house turning on various lights before heading back down stairs. The group eventually stumbled through the door taking off their shoes as they glanced around.
"Well everyone, what do you think? Your the first people in my brand new home" Ash smiled as he turned on the television to put some dance music on. Everyone shouted in amazement and went to hug Ash.
"Hey Gary, you have a similar house like this, where do you usually keep the drinks?" Ash asked,
"Well, in here usually" Gary stumbled towards a big brown cabinet in the living room and pulled out a few bottles of anything he could find, Jack Daniels, Vodka, Malibu, Sourz. Nearly every person grabbed a bottle and started raiding the kitchen for glasses.
"Well looks like my mum put beer and munchies in the fridge and cupboards for us.. so why don't we party?" Ash called from the kitchen while everyone yelled. All the females began dancing, and all the men were in the kitchen discussing the pairings up for tonight leaving Barry and Paul to 'flip a coin' Ash was outside talking on his xtransceiver giving directions to a certain someone.
As Ash walked inside, he was shocked at the image he saw, it was like a couples club, Gary was getting into Zoey, Brendan was getting into May, Paul into Candice, Tracey into Misty and he noticed Dawn and Barry were standing at the bottom of the stairs having a conversation,
"Hey you two, having a good night?" Ash asked
"Yeah Ash, look I better get back to yours, there's a no point in me hanging around here" Barry sulked as he said this after taking a sip of his beer,
"Bullshit Barry, you know I wouldn't leave you alone right? Your staying, and your about to get a surprise too" Ash gave Barry a nod as he went across to the door and opened it for a young blonde female to walk through in a tight orange dress and a short leather brown coat.
"Barry, you remember Bianca don't you?" Ash looked at Barry with his eyebrows up in the air, as if Barry could forget Bianca, they were exactly alike! When Ash returned from Sinnoh Barry caught up with him to ask him how his trip in Unova was, Ash had one thing in mind for Barry and handed him a piece of paper with a name and xtransceiver number on it, it was Bianca. He knew they would get along quite well and Ash knew that. He did hear they had met up a few times for dates but nothing really went on so he decided to invite her over while she was with her dad here in Kanto. Barry gave one of his cheesy grins towards Ash and hugged him like a kid getting what he wanted from his mummy.
"Ash, you know something, you surprise me every time" Ash just smiled as he closed the door walking back over to Dawn. He walked 3 steps up and turned to stop and began to shout at everyone in the house while turning the television on mute.
"Right everyone, before this night goes any further, I would like to say something" while clearing his throat,
"Go on Ashy Boy" Gary shouted from the couch as he raised a clenched fist in the air, everyone just laughed at the humour, Gary was more fun when he was drunk than sober and nobody could understand how that was. Ash continued his speech,
"Ok, so there are 12 of us here and only 5 bedrooms, if your gonna stay the night, which you all probably will end up doing, there are 3 bedrooms upstairs, 2 down the hall there and another living room through from the kitchen, just to let you know, my bedroom is the master one which is upstairs on the right, anyone goes in there I'll kick their ass!" everyone stared at Ash in fear, until he started laughing letting everyone know he was being sarcastic. He jumped down and headed into the kitchen to get a tray full of shots before bringing it out to hand to everyone. "To new beginnings and the future" everyone shouted in sync before knocking back the drink.
As the night went on, everyone apart from Ash and Paul, the most responsible ones in the group, were drunk. Ash was currently sitting near the bottom of the wooden steps in his new home sipping on a bottle of beer. He noticed Dawn trying to make her way over to him, he suddenly got up in a panic to make sure she didn't fall or spill anything.
"Dawn, are you ok?" he asked her while placing her on the steps beside him
"Why w-wouldn't I be?" before Ash could respond she started speaking again,
"Tell you what Ash" she gave a pause to try and get the words out of her mouth properly without mashing them together, "Take me upstairs to your MASTER bedroom" Ash didn't respond, he was definitely taken aback by the command his girlfriend had just giving him, he wasted no time pulling her up and tucking her under his arm so he could support her while walking up the stairs. As they got to the bedroom door, Dawn flew in in a daze, not knowing where she was. Ash quickly closed the door before turning round to find Dawn starting to strip off. Her bare back was in his direction, the first thing he could notice was the outline of her dark blue thong, it was incredibly thin like a piece of string. She turned around to face him and he couldn't help but drop his bottle of beer. Her hair was falling down to one side like a mermaids her breasts were perfectly big and round with her nipples fully erected, her body was shaped like an hour glass, her legs were immensely long and that piece of cloth covering the top of her legs, he just had the urge to rip it off. He had dreamed of a moment like this one, but in a very different way.
As Ash stood there gasping at the incredible image in front of him, Dawn paced herself towards him and started passionately kissing him trying to pull him backwards towards the bed. Eventually Ash pulled away and looked at Dawn in the eyes with a deep sorry look,
"Look Dawn, this isn't the time, your drunk and I'm not the type of person to take advantage of you" Ash quickly grabbed the nearest cloth close to him and placed it around Dawn's naked body as she started to cry. Ash sat on the edge of the bed and pulled her towards his lap. "Look Dawn, if you think I'm not attracted to you, that's DEFINITELY not it" he whispered in a cool but soothing voice, "Your body is a dream, you could be Elesa's competition in a few weeks time if you wanted too" this gave Dawn a slight smile before she used her right hand to wipe away a few tears and using her left arm for support around Ash's neck
"Then, what's the problem" she snuffled, placing her head on his shoulder while staring up at his tanned young face.
"There's no problem, I just want us to remember it properly, I can assure you, I do want to make love to you as much as you think I do, but not like this, not when your in an uncontrollable state. Now I'm going to lye here with you and we'll get some sleep, then we can talk about it tomorrow, what do you say?" giving her a cheeky smile she nodded while burying her head in towards his neck as she closed her eyes. Ash leaned forward to kiss her forehead as he whispered 'I love You'
He placed her body on the left side of the bed underneath the covers and made his way over to the door, he turned to give her one last love filled glance and switched off the light before closing the door behind him and headed downstairs into the front living room where nobody was too be seen. He laid down on the couch and closed his eyes.
This one was another long chapter. So, the lemon scene will be coming soon, I am female so it is a bit hard to write something so I will have to involve my experiences. Thank again! :)
