I am on a roll.
I really am. I scored a date with Elsea, I beat Cress (who was representing the trio at the tournament), and I picked the Pokemon for my next battle. This next one will be a double battle, and I haven't really brushed up on any battle training recently. Screw it. Electivire and Ampharos are both agile Pokemon, so they should have absolutely no problem against Falkner. He was a jackass, and I needed to show him how an asshole should be treated. That's why I chose two of my strongest Pokemon to massacre his Pokemon.
But that's not what Pokemon was about. I could destroy all his Pokemon, taking out all my rage against Falkner towards them, or I could go as a calm, laid-back 24-year-old who I usually am. I chose the latter.
I was waiting at the ticket booth at NimbasaLand when Elesa showed up.
"Hey!" she called out to me.
"Hi!" I called back.
"Come on in. Where do you want to go first?" she asked.
"Wait, so we don't need to buy any tickets?" I asked her.
"My gym is in here, so we get in for free." she explained. "You're cute when you're stupid." she laughed.
"Whaa-"
"Come on! We don't have all night!". And with that, she took my hand and ran in, literally dragging me in.
NimbasaLand was my dream destination as a kid, and it still fascinated me at this age. There were rollercoasters the size of skyscrapers, and there were lots and lots of food stalls. But none compared to the massive ferris wheel looming over us as we were exiting the park to go for dinner.
"Oh yeah! Almost forgot! We should go on the ferris wheel together!" Elesa exclaimed.
"Great idea. Let's go." I said.
We both entered a ferris wheel car. It was late at night, and we were the only ones on the ferris wheel at the time. As the ferris wheel started to move, Elesa popped a question.
"Do you like me?"
I didn't know how to respond. We had only known each other for two days, but I felt immense feelings for her already. I decided. "Yes. Yes I do. And I know that it has only been two days and we barely know each other, but I think that you belong with me."
It came out. I didn't mean to say that. But my emotions had their way in the end. Elsea stared at me, with her big, bright eyes. She was stunning, but I was scared as to what she would say. I noticed out of the corner of my eyes that there were fireworks in the distance. We both stared at them. Then, out of nowhere, Elesa grasped the collar of my t-shirt and dragged me into a kiss.
She was a great kisser. We both shut our eyes as our tongues played. I grabbed the back of her head, and she grabbed my shoulders. The fireworks lit up the sky behind. After about ten more seconds, we let go of each other.
"You're a good man, Volkner. You're the first man who has ever said that to me. The first man who hasn't judged me because I'm a model, and the first man who hasn't lusted ver my body or my looks. And that is why I fell in love with you." She said.
We were both silent as we exited the ferris wheel. We held hands as we talked about our lives, and what we did when we weren't battling.
"Do you like clubbing?" she asked.
"Sorry?" I didn't hear her.
"Do you like to go clubbing?" She asked again.
"Yeah, I go clubbing a lot with my friends", I replied.
"Then you'll love where we're going."
Sorry guys, haven't been updating as much as I used to. I went on a little "spiritual" trip to the northern parts of India, so that is why I wasn't able to chat or write to you guys much. For those of you who stuck with me all the way, thanks. For those of you who checked regularly for new chapters, thanks. You guys can expect lots more chapters in the days to come. Thanks again!
