The room fell silent and the only noise that could be heard was the sound of breathing except their was a difference in rhythm. One sounded calm and relaxed while the other sounded escalating and upbeat. Time slowly passed as Ash and Dawn sat on the bed embracing each other. Dawn could feel Ash's warmth as he held her.
Ash... I don't know how I'm gonna say this.. So you need to listen well... Also you have to promise me that no matter what will always be together.. Dawn said as she looked up at Ash with pleading eyes.
Of course Dawn... I promise but, your starting to make me worry this thing your suppose to tell me looks like it has been ... Hurting you. Ash said as he looked at Dawn straight in her eyes.
Dawn sighed again as she try to adjust herself so she was facing Ash, but Ash wouldn't let her as his arm was still around her waist. So she just looked up as best as she could and started her tale.
Ok Ash... do you remember about 3 years ago when we spent the night at the beach house in Kanto...? Dawn said as a hot blush appeared on her face.
Ash smiled and laughed a bit before he kissed her head and stared at her again like she was the brightest jewel in the world.
Yes Dawn ... I don't think I will ever forget that night. Ash said
Well... It ... Seems... That night might have sparked something in my stomach .. If ya know what I mean.. Dawn said as she started twirling her two index fingers.
Uhh Dawn I don't think I ... Ash said but then looked at Dawn and then all the puzzle pieces in his brain just clicked. Ash couldn't find the words to speak and all he could do was stare at Dawn.
Umm.. Ash... Ash please say something. Dawn said as she put her hands
on his shoulders and shook him .
Ow! Ash said as he broke out of his trance for his arm was hurting.
Ooo.. Sorry.. I didn't realize.. But you wouldn't say anything..
Dawn said as she began to feel some sort of relief but also regret for
Ash wouldn't take it well.
It's a boy.. a beautiful boy .. He looks just like you except he has the color of my eyes.. I named him Andrew and he is the sweetest, bravest, and strongest young boy you will ever meet. Andrew is also loved immensely ... Just like you are.. And ... Don't worry May is watching him for me ... Dawn said as she squeezed Ash's hand and smiled.
Dawn ... Why didn't... you tell me. Ash said as he felt guilty and pure sadness. Trust me I tried but just ... Couldn't.. I'm sorry.. Dawn said as she waited and thought that he would never see her the same way again.
Dawn.. You should have told me... I.. I would have never left on that trip.. I would have never left you all by yourself! I would have been there for Andrew! Ash said as he hugged Dawn tightly.
I'm so sorry! I'm... sorry... Ash said as a tear fell down his cheek while he hugged Dawn tighter. Dawn also still continued to hug him.
I didn't want to be a bad father if I had a son or daughter... I didn't want to become my ... my father ... Ash said.
Ash... listen ... first of all your hurting me a bit. Dawn said as
Ash slowly loosened his grip but didn't let go. Thank you and second
I believe that everything will be ok ... as long as we have each other and love each other we will be able to raise Andrew into the finest young man and you will Also be a wonderful father...Dawn said as she smiled and rubbed Ash's back.
I don't know... Dawn.. Ash said as he moved back so he could stare directly at his lover. It might be one of the hardest things I will have to do ... You know raising a son but everything can be ok because I have you ... Now one of the two, most beautiful gifts the world gave me..and also...Don't you think we should follow the tradition. Ash said as he slowly got off the bed.
What do you mean? Dawn said looking clueless at what Ash was doing.
I meant this.. Ash said as he slowly bent down on one knee and held one of Dawns hands.
Dawn Berlitz, you are the most beautiful, talented, and bravest person I have ever met. Your amazing at contest and have the most beautiful blue eyes that match your hair. I love you with all my heart and soul so ...Will you marry me? Ash said as he squeezed Dawn's hand.
Tears started pouring down Dawns face. Ash started getting worried for she didn't answer him.
Ash ... You don't know... How long I have been waiting for those words... Dawn said as she smiled at her love.
Ash stood up and wiped Dawns tears he then smiled and leaned in close to Dawn.
So does that mean yes? Ash said as he stared into her eyes and rested his forehead on Dawn's.
Dawn could feel Ash's warm breath lightly caressing her lips and she could feel her heart, leaping with excitement every second he stared at her ,not only through her eyes but through her soul.
Yes ... In every possible way and language ... Dawn said as She felt Ash move closer and place his lips on hers. She felt such a huge jolt of electricity course through her body, Dawn knew that they were perfect for each other and finally at last he was her's.
In a second his desire for her became stronger but he had to contain himself from going any farther for she was still wounded. She continued to make out with her future husband when a knock could be heard at the door. They both stopped and faced the door. The doctor walked in.
Ash quickly whispered in Dawns ear.
Will finish this later.. Ash said as Dawn began to blush. Ash turned to the doctor.
Hello.. I'm glad to see that your doing ok.. And you miss? Drudfurd said
Ketchum.. Dawn said giggling as she quickly winked at Ash. Ash held
her hand and squeezed gently while smiling.
Ok Mrs. Ketchum well from my results you seem to be recovering slowly, but you would need to stay in the center for about another two weeks so we can make sure everything is healthy and ok in your system. Uhh... Mr. Ketchum I assume? Drudfurd said.
Yes... Ash said
You may leave the center in about a few days for your injuries aren't that serious. Your arm is going to heal but you must remember to take the specific amount of medicine I give to you so that it could relieve the pain.
Yes doctor, but I have a request to make .. Ash said
Yes, what is it? Drudfurd said
Well, could it be possible to move my wife to a hospital in the Sinnoh region where she can finish recovering ? I think my wife would like that ...Ash said as he saw Dawn smile at him.
Well she seems to be better so I'll see if I can make the arrangements
but, do you feel alright with moving Mrs. Ketchum ? Drudfurd said
Yes, of course I feel ok to move and I also want to thank you for your generosity towards me and my husband without you we wouldn't be here right now ... Dawn said as she bowed her head to the doctor thanking him .Her soft blue hair which was left free from her ponytail shielded her cheeks and Ash out of instinct put one side of her hair behind her ear and quickly kissed her cheek. Dawn started to look around the room.
What is it Dawn? Ash said
Umm ... Where is Pikachu and Piplup and all the rest of my Pokemon?
Dawn said
Oo Pikachu just went out for a bit and ... Ash said
And your Pokemon are in the careful hands of nurse joy. They are all healthy and well . Drudfurd said while smiling
Oo that's great to hear! Now their is no need to worry.. Dawn said as she giggled.
Excuse me while I make your arrangements and also I suggest that you young man go and get some rest... Drudfurd said as he left the room.
You know Ash he is right you need to get your rest... Dawn said as she stared at him with a worried expression.
Dawn.. I will get my rest but I just can't until I see that your asleep safe and sound.. Ash said as started closing the blinds for it was only the afternoon and the sun still shined.
Ok ... But promise me that you'll go straight to your room and go to sleep... Dawn said.
I promise ... Ash said as he kissed her on the lips and then slowly tucked her in.
Time past as Ash waited patiently for his love to fall asleep and because the room was silent and peaceful his eyes began to droop. Ash was quickly awakened by the sound of slow calm breathing which came from Dawn. He slowly moved to the door and turned off the lights.
Sleep well Dawn... Ash whispered as he closed the door and went to his room. As be was walking Pikachu strolled by.
Oo hey Pikachu are you ready to get some rest? Ash said staring down at his companion.
Pika... Pikachu said as it nooded.
Alright ... Let's go.. Ash said as he picked up Pikachu and let him rest on his healthy shoulder. He walked into his room and closed the door. He then made sure that the room was dark and Pikachu was comfortable. Ash slowly went under his sheets and stared at the door.
Oo man ... Tomorrow is gonna be a big day ... Ash said as he turned on his back and put one arm in back of his head. He gave a quick glance at the door and then looked back at the ceiling.
Tomorrow ... When I walk Through that door ... To think that my new life will begin ... With my wife and son ..Tomorrow I wait for you...
Ash said as he felt the peace of the room and fell asleep with his companion next to him .Awaiting another full day...
