Chapter 2
Ash and Pikachu are gathering firewood a couple of minutes from camp. Finally deciding to break the silence, Ash starts speaking with his friend.
"Hey Pikachu, there's this girl that I like, but I don't know how I can tell her." He says.
"Pika Pika Pikachu" (Don't worry Ash you'll find some way) Pikachu replies while grabbing a couple more sticks.
Ash shrugs, "Yeah that's true, eventually I'll tell her. But what if she doesn't like me back?"
Pikachu drops the firewood its carrying, jumps onto Ash's shoulder and reassuringly nuzzles the left side of his head.
"Thanks buddy." Ash says while scratching the mouse under his chin.
Later after returning to camp with the firewood, Brock cooks another delicious meal. Ash and May sit next to each other, but the only words that either of them say are compliments to Brock for another good meal. They even find it difficult to look at each other. Pikachu and Eevee also sit next to each other while eating their dinner, and began to converse.
"Pikachu Pika Pika Pi?" (Hey Eevee have you seen how weird Ash gets around May?) Pikachu asks his friend.
"Eev Eevee vee."(Yeah, May also acts the same way around Ash, she also said that she likes someone.) Eevee replies.
Pikachu stops eating for a second, "Pika Pika Pikachu." (Hmm... Ash also said that he likes someone.) he mutters.
"vee vee..." (You don't think...)
Pikachu and Eevee look at Ash and May and realize that they liked one another.
After everyone finished their meal and Brock began to clean up Ash and May are still sitting by each other. Eevee sneaks close to May who is too distracted by Ash to notice.
Eevee sneaks a little closer to May then gently tackles her. It wasn't a heard tackle, but was strong enough to knock her over...right into Ash.
"Whaa!"
Ash catches her in his arms and they begin gazing into each other's eyes. Suddenly realizing where she was, May quickly springs out of his arms and both trainers begin blushing.
Pikachu snaps his fingers and says, "Pika Pika." (Darn it, I thought that would work.)
