Hey guys! I'm here with yet another update. I think you guys might like this one! :D So enjoy!

I just stood there while he was leaning closer and closer, my heart racing and my breaths getting smaller. I wasn't sure what to do in situations like these. This would be my very first kiss.

A ringtone blasted loudly, causing Kenny to jump back a little. I sighed a breath of relief. I wasn't prepared to have my first kiss and on my first date. Ignoring Kenny's sheepish reaction, I answered my phone.

"Hello?"

"Dawn! Where are you?" It was my mom.

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"I'm at the airport! I have been since the past fifteen minutes," She told me matter-of-factly.

"What! But I thought you were coming tomorrow?"

"I think the plane landed early. Now please be a dear and come pick me up, I need some help as well." She told me.

Sighing, I nodded, "Okay..I'll be there. Bye." I said and then I ended the call.

I glanced at Kenny who was still standing there with a somewhat sheepish expression, probably of what happened earlier. He must've felt awkward now, but I made a mental note to myself to thank my mom for calling at an appropriate time. I wanted my first kiss to be right. I didn't want to be rushed.

"Everything okay?" He asked me.

"Yeah. I just gotta pick my mom from the airport." I said, nodding.

"Oh. Well, the airport's pretty far away and I don't have a ride. What are you gonna do?" He asked me, worriedly.

I shrugged, "I'll just catch a taxi. No need to worry." I told him.

"Are you sure? Maybe I could tag along with you?" He suggested.

I widened my eyes. Mom would get the wrong impression if he saw Kenny with me and she'd automatically assume that he's my boyfriend. Well, he didn't ask me to be his girlfriend, but still. It wasn't a bad assumption, but my mom never approved of boys and she always warned me about them. Most importantly, she thought I was way too young to have a boyfriend.

"Maybe next time, Kenny." I pleaded with my eyes and he seemed to have gotten the message.

"Alright. You have my number in case, right?"

"Yup. In my phone." I said.

"Cool. I'll text you later. Bye, Dawn." He smiled, touching my hand gently before walking away from me.

"Bye," I whispered softly, "Thanks for the great night."

I quickly called for a taxi and we headed off for the airport. I texted my mom that I was on my way and just as I was about to put my phone away, the ringtone blasted.

"Hello?"

"Hey, girl, how was the daaaateeee?" I could practically hear May smirking through the phone.

"It was good, actually. Kenny's a nice guy." I told May. "He took me to this outdoor place where couples just enjoy each other every other Friday evening. We ate, talked and even danced a little before we headed back to my place. Not bad for my first date." I said as I crossed my legs in the backseat of the taxi, getting comfortable.

"Nice. Well, you're missing an important detail." May said, rather vaguely.

"What?"

"You know…after every date…."

"Yes?"

"Are you telling me that Kenny didn't kiss you?!" She exclaimed through the phone.

I rolled my eyes. Typical. "Weeeell…he tried, I'll tell you that."

"OMG!"

"But we didn't kiss," I told her quickly before she started to fangirl through the phone.

"Aww," I heard her pout, "Why not?"

"Because the great Arceus answered my prayers by letting my phone ring at that exact moment." I told her, grinning.

"Darn! What did he do?"

"Well, it was kind of awkward at first, but I had to leave to pick my mom up at the airport. And he soon left. I'm actually in a taxi right now heading to the airport." I said.

"Ah," May said in realization.

"Now don't think you're off the hook. You have to tell me what happened with Drew. I saw you two almost making out in the cafeteria this afternoon," I said, smirking and I could tell that May was blushing due to the lack of a response.

"Well, if you think we're dating, we're not." She said, her voice soft.

"I didn't ask if you were dating. I just want to know what happened…or what's happening between you and Drew. Do you…like him?"

"That's the thing…I don't know if I like him or not. I'm not sure how I feel." She told me and I nodded in understanding, although she couldn't see me.

"What about when he kissed you on the cheek? And when he kissed you today?"

"Well, the kiss on the cheek was a result of losing a bet that I don't want to talk about. And when he kissed me on the cheek, it just felt...right. I had this weird feeling in my stomach; as if it was turning into a knot and my heart was beating more than ever. I found myself getting attracted to him, which was weird to me, because all this while, I thought Drew was an annoying and egoistical jerk." She explained, then sighed heavily. I processed the information.

"Hmm, what about the kiss today?"

"Apparently, he had the same feelings towards me when he kissed me on the cheek. So, we were talking in the cafeteria and he asked me if I felt anything after that kiss and because I was unsure of how I felt, he then kissed me to convince me that we have mutual feelings for each other." She hesitated before saying, "It was honestly the best kiss I ever had, Dawn! But I was so embarrassed cuz everyone was watching us…" She trailed off.

I smiled. I was really happy for May having some love interests for Drew.

"What do you think I should do, Dawn? He asked me out and I told him I need time,"

"May!" I exclaimed. "It's obvious that you like him and so does he! I think you should go for it!"

"You think?"

"Of course I do! And besides, I've noticed the way he looks at you. He really likes you, I can tell, but I guess he got a way to hide it."

I heard her sigh, "Okay. I'll do it!"

"Yes!" I exclaimed in delight. I noticed the car had now halted and I was parked near the airport.

"Oh! I have to go, May. I reached the airport, I'll call you later." I told her.

"Okay, Dawn! See ya! And thanks."

"No probs!" And with that, I shut off the call.

I quickly got out of the taxi, before looking at the window to the taxi man, "Hey, please wait here, I'll just bring my mom with me and you can drop us home."

"Sure." He told me and with that, I headed inside the airport.

Luckily, I saw my mother immediately and she waved me. Instead of waving back, I rushed towards her and engulfed her in a big hug. Her arms were comforting me and we stood there for about five seconds before we let go.

"Hey, sweetie, how have you been?" She asked me, tearing up a little.

I giggled, "I'm just fine, mom. And why are you crying? It's only been a week."

"I know, but you're my only child and a mother misses her only child, you know."

I smiled seeing my mom's case of emotional tears, "I missed you too, mom." I told her honestly.

She lit up, "Really? I would have thought you'd be happy without me. No mom means no telling you what to do so I think you took advantage of your freedom." She said and I widened my eyes. Busted!

I laughed sheepishly, "Well…maybe. But that doesn't mean that I didn't miss you." I told her and she smiled.

She laughed, "Alright. Now help me with these suitcases," She said, pointing towards the suitcases beside her. I lifted up the handle and started to drag it across the airport floor.

"So, how's grandma?"

She glanced at me. "She's doing much better. That's for sure."

I sighed a breath of relief, "That's good to hear." I said and she nodded.

"Yeah, she told me that she still has a few more years to live but for now she's not going anywhere." She said, in a joking manner but somehow I didn't take it as a joke. It wasn't even funny.

I stopped, "Was it that serious?"

"Yeah, pretty much."

I remained silent and in worry.

"Come on, let's go. Don't worry about it." She said and I slowly nodded before continuing to walk.

"Oh, let's get some coffee." My mom suggested and I immediately smiled. As a mother and daughter, one of the things we had in common was coffee. Coffee really lifted our moods and helped us to relax together.

Soon enough, my mom gave me a cup and I smiled before saying, "Thanks."

"Let's sit down for some time," She suggested. I heeded to her words and carried the luggage with me, walking to where the seats were.

Before I managed to sit down, my foot had gotten stuck somehow in the suitcase and struggling to get out of it, I stumbled upon my feet and tripped, dropping my coffee. Groaning in pain, I stood up slowly and noticed my mom coming towards my direction in a fit of worry.

"AAAHH!"

We both looked to the source of the voice. I widened my eyes in shock.

Ash Ketchum.

He was standing there, flailing his arms in pain and I realized that the spilt coffee had landed on his white shirt, after seeing a huge coffee stain.

"Ash! Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" I said, rushing towards him.

I wasn't sure what to do but I quickly took his hand and rushed him towards the nearest bathroom. He stood there, still groaning in pain, while I opened the sink tap and grabbed a handful of water. I gulped.

He took off his shirt.

I stood there, like a fool, taking every opportunity to notice his bare chest and if I hadn't noticed a big red stain outlined near his chest, I would have admired his six-pack as well. Slowly, I started to rub against the delicate skin and he winced in pain.

"Sorry." I said and he waved it off. He sighed a breath of relief.

"Is it better?" I asked and I noticed my voice echo in the bathroom.

He glanced at me, "Yeah. A little. Damn, how did you even spill coffee on me?"

"I'm sorry, I tripped. I didn't mean to spill coffee on you." I managed to say, sparing glances at his perfect chest every chance I got.

"See something you like?" He smirked and I widened my eyes. I really hoped that Ash didn't notice my cheeks turn into a shade of red.

"I've seen better." I lied and he chuckled a bit. One moment, he was wincing in pain and the next, smirking at me.

Ash was really confusing but yet, I am as well. I couldn't understand why I was staring at his chest. Well, it was because I admitted to myself that I am attracted to him, however, I had to control myself. After all, Kenny wouldn't approve of me looking at other guys like that.

"Sure," He continued smirking and then put on a shirt. Rolling my eyes, we headed out of the bathroom and ignored the looks people were sending us.

We approached my mom. "There you are! Oh dear, are you okay?" My mom asked, looking at Ash.

"Yeah, I guess, it's still a little burnt, but I'll apply some cream on it when I get home." He told her.

"Okay, good. Dawn, did you apologize to Ash?"

"Of course I did!" I rolled my eyes.

"Okay, good, it's important to apologize to your friends once you've done something wrong." She told me.

I wanted to laugh. Me and Ash friends? "We're not friends, mom."

"Oh then how do you know Ash?" She asked and I was about to reply when Ash took the opportunity.

"I'm her boyfriend."

What?!

I stared at him in shock and I only got a smirk lingering on his face.

"He is?" My mom gave both of us a look of disbelief.

"You are?" I looked towards him.

He nodded, "I am!"

Again…what?!

Who can remember where the spilling coffee thing came from? Yeah, it just brings back memories.
