« Clemont tests out an invention on Ash and it explodes »

Finally. It was complete.

Clemont was about to start yelling about his newest invention, but he remembered it was 1 in the morning and Ash was sleeping. He refrained.

Wait... Ash was asleep. That's perfect! He could test the invention on Ash in his sleep. It was a device that reads dreams, anyways.

Carefully attaching the small sensors to the black-haired boy's forehead, he was sure to not wake him. Ash was a heavy sleeper, so he didn't have much to worry about, however he didn't want to get too careless.

Putting on the headphones and fiddling with the tuner on the device, he adjusted it until he got a clear signal. On the monitor, Ash's dream came into focus before Clemont's eyes... And he saw... Himself?

After the next few minutes had passed, Clemont's face was bright red. Ash was not only dreaming about him, but the two of them... The thought sent shivers up his spine and then back down again, where they settled in an uncomfortable spot. He shifted awkwardly, only to knock his invention over, ripping the sensors from Ash's head, and the headphones from his own. It hit the ground, and exploded, as usual.

Ash woke up yelling, sweating, screaming and coughing from what had just happened... In his dream, he and Clemont had been... And suddenly Clemont had exploded. And by the looks of it, something had blown up in real life also.

Once the smoke cleared, Clemont's shocked face could be seen, soot-covering his cracked glasses and obstructing his wide blue eyes. Ash wiped the soot from his own face, shooting a questioning look at the blond.

Clemont sighed and removed his glasses, wiping them off on his shirt and not caring whether he just stained it or not.

"Looks like another one blew up," he said simply to Ash, trying to pretend nothing weird had just happened, however the shakiness of his voice told otherwise.

"Yeah. What was it?"

The blond quickly replaced his glasses in an attempt to hide his face. "I-It was nothing."

"Then why are you so close to me?" Ash's voice seemed to get lower with each word he said, and a mischievous smirk was tugging at his lips. Oh Arceus, help him.

"Be-Because I wanted to make sure I didn't wake you up...?"

"Well you did. Only one thing to do now, this late, huh?"

The next day, Clemont was exhausted. When Bonnie asked him why his glasses were broken, and why he was walking funny, Ash told her he had fallen off the bed.

Yeah. Banging around again.
