Love Me Like You Do
(Feature Song: Love Me Like You Do by Ellie Goulding)
Dawn wakes up and looks at the time. "Wow, it's morning!" She turns her head around and sees Odd next to her in bed! "What the fuck?" Dawn tries to remember what happened last night. Later that night, Dawn lays on her bed and thinks about Odd. "I think it's too hard right now!" Allison is spending the night with her sister, so Dawn has the room all to herself. Odd lays on his bed and thinks about Dawn. He currently is not speaking to Ulrich at the moment. Odd looks at a picture of himself and Dawn on the ski trip. He gets up. He knocks on Dawn's door, and she answers. "Hey, can we talk?" Odd asks. "Sure!" Dawn said. Dawn tries to remember what else happened. "I remember inviting Odd into my room; then we started kissing. Kissing leads to me taking off his shirt and Odd shoving his hand down my pants and squeezing my ass!" Dawn looks at Odd, who is looking at his phone. "Good morning, Odd!" Dawn said. Odd looks at Dawn and blushes. "Good morning!" Odd said. "Nice talk, we had!" Dawn said. Odd blushes again. "I remember taking off Dawn's shirt and kissing her chest. Then I remember picking Dawn up and carrying her to her bed." Odd blushes again. "Yeah, nice talk!" Odd said. Dawn and Odd stare at each other for a while. "Look! I want to give us a chance!" Odd said. "I know! I do too!" Dawn said. "Then, will you go out to dinner with me? I had this whole idea in my head for weeks!" "Sure!" Dawn said. "Until tonight, do you want to go snow tubing? The fresh snow makes all the difference!" "Sure. I heard that we are all going to meet up at the rink," Odd said. "Yes, we can do both!" Dawn said. Odd smiles and kisses Dawn on the nose.
In the evening, Dawn is freaking out. "My hair! Why the night of all nights!" Dawn scrambles to tame her hair. "Help!" Allison rubs Dawn's shoulders and helps her fix her hair. "I think you should curl your hair. It will go with the scenery," Allison said. "How do you know? Did you help Odd plan this?" Dawn asks. "Not really. I helped him booked the place since the beginning of summer. If all of this shit hasn't happened, Odd would have brought you to the place." "I see. Well, I'm glad that Aelita and Jeremy worked things out. I heard that they had a romantic time at the rink earlier in the day before Odd and I arrived at the rink." "They did. It was sweet! But it would help if you focused on Odd. He really went all out for this." Dawn blushes. "I'll bet he did." Dawn picks out a navy blue dress and wears an evening coat to match. She meets Odd downstairs. "You look sharp!" Dawn said. Odd blushes as he fixes his black evening coat. "Thanks. You-look-beautiful!" Odd said. Dawn blushes. "Thank you, Odd. Are we going to one of the dining rooms?" "No, silly! Why would we have on our coats if we were staying inside!" Dawn looks confused. Odd leads Dawn to a gondola. "What is this?" Dawn asks. Odd puts his finger on Dawn's lips. "Shh. Be patient." Piplup, who insisted on coming for Dawn's safety, is worried. Houndoom made sure Piplup stayed out of the way. The pair gets on the boat, and Odd rows them down a path. Dawn notices the lights on the trees, the water lilies in the canal, and the sleeping water Pokemon along the way. When the pair arrives at the venue, Dawn is speechless.
"Wow!" Dawn said. Odd and Dawn walk into the indoor gazebo, decorated with fairy lights, white roses, and tree vines. "I see that you like the place," Odd said. "Wow!" Dawn said. "Just to let you know, I had to request the flowers, and everything else is part of the venue." Dawn smiles and kisses, Odd. "Now, for the basket," Odd said. Odd takes out an orange blanket and lays out all of the food. Dawn looks at the food. "Watermelon slices, a bottle of sparkle juice, two plastic cups, sandwiches, and a small cheesecake, Hey! This is what you brought on our 'fake date'!" (Delta Company: Arc 25). "I know! Why mess with a classic!" Odd said. Dawn giggles. "But I added something else: Meatballs and Couscous!" "You made that! It smells good! Right, Piplup!" Piplup agrees. "I made something for Piplup and Houndoom as well," Odd said. Piplup rejoices. As the evening progresses, Dawn and Odd feel more and more connected to each other. A few moments later, Odd gives Dawn a jewelry box. "What is it?" Dawn asks. "Open it!" Odd said. Dawn opens the box and takes out a necklace with a cat head and ladybug pendant. The pendant sparkles in the moonlight. "Odd! This is amazing!" Dawn said. "Would you like me to put it on you?" Odd asks. "Yes, please!" Odd puts the necklace around Dawn's neck. "Let's take a picture!" Dawn said. Odd and Dawn take a selfie. "Do you want to dance?" Odd asks. "Sure!" Dawn said.

You're the light; you're the night
You're the colour of my blood
You're the cure; you're the pain
You're the only thing I wanna touch
Never knew that it could mean so much, so much
Odd takes Dawn's hand and starts to dance with her. Dawn blushes as Odd twirls her around.
(Ellie Goulding)
You're the fear; I don't care
Cause I've never been so high
Follow me through the dark
Let me take you past the satellites
You can see the world you brought to life, to life
Dawn rests her head on Odd's chest as they dance. Odd gentle strokes Dawn cheeks as she lays her head on his chest.
(Ellie Goulding)
So love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?
The pair dances the tango as the lighting in the venue changes to a soft, amber color.
(Ellie Goulding)
Fading in, fading out
On the edge of paradise
Every inch of your skin is a Holy Grail I've got to find
Only you can set my heart on fire, on fire
Yeah
The pair extends their arms out, then in, then Odd twirls Dawn around. Dawn wraps her arms around Odd and kisses him on the cheek.
(Ellie Goulding)
I'll let you set the pace
Cause I'm not thinking straight
My head's spinning around, I can't see clear no more
What are you waiting for?
Dawn comes around Odd and takes his hand. Odd takes her hand and kisses it. He grabs her, twirls her, and dips. Then winks at her, which causes Dawn to blush.

Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?
The pair dances the tango. Odd twirls Dawn around as Dawn holds on to him. The pair extends out, then in, and as Odd twirls Dawn around, she kisses him.

I'll let you set the pace
Cause I'm not thinking straight
My head's spinning around, I can't see clear no more
What are you waiting for?
The pair slows down. Odd gazes at Dawn's eyes as he leans in for a kiss. Dawn gently touches his face as Odd kisses her.

Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?
The pair dances the tango. Odd twirls Dawn around as Dawn holds on to him. The pair extends out, then in, and as Odd twirls Dawn around, she kisses him. In the end, Odd dips Dawn as the pair share a kiss.
"That was incredible!" Dawn said. "Yeah, you were!" Odd said. Dawn blushes and kisses him. "I love you, Dawn!" Odd said. Dawn is shocked. She did not have any words to say, but she kisses Odd again.
Later on that night, Dawn sist on her bed and thinks about her evening with Odd. "Allison, it was wonderful!" "It seems like it! You are in a daze!" Allison said. Dawn remembers Odd giving her the necklace, which she put back in the box, and Odd telling her that he loves her, which Dawn does not know how to respond to that. Dawn thinks about their time as a couple that the whole shit-show of a summer they were having. "Dawn, I know what you are thinking!" Allison said. "If you want him, then go be with him!" Dawn nods as she grabs the jewelry box. She knocks on a door, and Odd answers. "Dawn!" "I want you, Odd!" Dawn boldly said. She kisses him, and he kisses back. He closes the door and picks him up as he passionately kisses her.
