Dawn, who was at her hotel, was thinking about the day's events. Ash had showed her around Slateopolis City. Just the two of them, alone...she sighed. She really liked him, but she wanted to be sure he wasn't the guy she had to kill. She pulled out her Holo caster, and called Paul.
"Hey, Dawn. Is he done with?" Paul asked.
Dawn shook her head. "I met a guy named Ash Ketchum. Is that the one?" She was hoping he'd say no.
"If he has spiky black hair and brown eyes, then yes. Kill him soon, and get back here." Paul said. Great. Dawn thought. I'm head-over-heels in love with him, yet I have to kill him! What should I do!? She began to cry a bit.
Ash's POV
I went outside my hotel room, and the person in the room next to me, that person's door was open. I don't know why, but I looked inside...and saw Dawn! crying! Was she okay?
I walked over to her and sat on her bed, and she was oblivious that I was right next to her. I wiped her tears with my hands.
"Dawn, don't cry." She looked up, saw me, and gasped.
"Ash! What're you doing here?" She asked.
"I'm next door. Why're you crying?"
She took a deep breath. "It's nothing."
"Dawn, something is bothering you. I hate to see you cry. I may have just met you today, but I feel like i've known you for eternity. You can trust me." Dawn shook her head.
"Dawn, please, tell me..." I took a deep breath. "I love you."
Dawn's POV
"I love you." Ash said. I stopped crying, and looked at him. He liked me? Yay! Same here. But, how can I kill him when I know he likes me? I was battling over what to say, when I let the words tumble out of my mouth.
"I love you to." Ash smiled a bit, and leaned forward. Oh no. I mean Oh yes. Oh, whatever!. I thought. The next thing I know, is that Ash's lips are on mine. Great! Perfect way to make matters more complicated. The part of me that didn't want to kill him must've taken over, because the next thing I know, i'm kissing him back. I don't know why, but I leaned back, pushing Ash to the bed. I immediately pulled away.
"I-I really love you, Ash." I said. It was true. I did love him. I felt his hand stroking my hair. "Same here." He murmured. He got off my bed, gave me a quick hug, and went to his room.
Ash's Pov
I kissed Dawn! YESSS! I was so happy with myself! Also, She kissed me back! I felt like doing my Happy Dance, but I decided not to. Suddenly, I remembered about how I had to kill Dawn. Maybe that Dawn is different from my Dawn? I hoped. I decided to call Gary via Holo Caster to find out.
"Ash, have you killed her?" Was how he greeted me.
"No. I met a girl named Dawn Berlitz. Is she the Dawn I have to..."
"Yes. She should be very pretty, blue-eyed and blue-haired. Please, kill her, and get back to headquarters." Gary hung up. Great! I thought. I have to kill my girlfriend. Wait...Dawn is my girlfriend...right? Grr! How'll I be able to kill her!?
Sorry for the short chapter. But, Ash and Dawn are now confused of what they should do; follow thier duty, or thier hearts! And, for those of you wondering, I named the city 'Slateopolis' after my favorite cities in Hoenn; Slateport and Sootopolis. Please R&R
