Ash's POV

"Only three more days to Christmas huh Pikachu?" I ask him as we make our way to the Celadon City department store.

"Pika!" He replies happily.

"Well lets get everybody some gifts what do you say?" As we step through the doors of the store.

"Pika pikachu!" He agrees.

"Yeah I'm excited too." I reply

Several hours later...

"Well, thats everyone, except for one person..." I say looking around

"Pika?" He asks.

"That one is special." I anwser. As he nods understandably

May's POV

"Good morning Dawn." I say as I catch up to her on the road.

"Good morning." She replies. "You ready to shop?"

"Of course!" I say cheerfully. "Today I'm going to buy everyone presents for Ash's Christmas party!"

"I'm excited for it its gonna be great!" Dawn says happily.

"Yeah me too..." I reply.

"Ohhh I know exactly why you're excited for." Dawn said.

"W-what do you mean?" I ask nervously.

"Well lets juts say you might have a crush!" Said Dawn.

"What!? Me? N-no I don't think so." I replied.

"Come one, don't try to lie, you're in love with Ash!" She said excitedly.

"Okay." I sigh. "The truth is I've been in love with him for a long time. Have I ever told you about the time he risked his life for mine?"

"No way! Really?" Dawn said astonished. "Tell me!"

"Well it was back when we were still traveling together we helped out a traveling circus and they had a rare pokemon egg that turned out to be manaphy and then a pirate wanted to steal it and the crown of the sea, which were a collection of rare crystals. So he managed to take one so Ash being who he is went to stop him and returned the crystals. I also tried to help him but once the temple we were in began to flood he put manaphy and I into an escape pod while he went to save the temple, and before he left he said, 'stay here, if anything happened to you I wouldnt be able to live with myself because I care about you.' It was at that moment that I knew... I loved him. I first felt something when we met and it kept growing over time. Now I know its love..."

"Awwwww thats so sweet!" Said Dawn. "I got a little teary eyed."

"Yeah me too..."

Later in the evening ...

Ash's POV

"Well everyone should be arriving soon Pikachu." I said.

"Pikachu!"

Suddenly the doorbell rings.

"Brock! How are you?" I say greeting my oldest traveling partner and friend.

"I'm good its been a while hasn't it?" He replies. "How are you?"

"I'm fine." I reply.

"Ash, you arent fine. Its May isn't it?" He says.

"Yes..." I sigh. "I just love her so much... but i dont know if I should tell her."

"Tell her Ash I'm sure she feels the same, you guys were meant for each other." He said calmly. "Now lets go because the doorbell is ringing again."

May's POV

"Im so nervous Dawn, its been so long since I've seen him in person." I say nervously.

"You'll be fine." Dawn replied reassuringly. "He's probably as nervous as you are."

"Do you really think so?" I asked.

"Of course just relax." She answered.

"Okay." I said as I rang the doorbell.

The door opened and there stood Ash just as I remembered him, both him and I stood in silence until Dawn intervened.

"Merry Christmas Ash!" She exclaimed as she hugged him.

"Huh? Oh! Merry Christmas Dawn!" He said snapping out of his trance.

Gathering up my courage I followed Dawn's example.

"Merry Christmas Ash." I said shyly.

"Merry Christmas May." He replied.

Ash's POV

Everyone else had shown up except for two, Dawn and May. The doorbell rang and surely enough ther was Dawn, and May...

"Wow shes even more beautiful." I thought.

"..." We stood there in silence for what seemed forever until Dawn broke it.

"Merry Christmas Ash!" She said.

"Huh? Oh! Merry Christmas Dawn." I replied as I hugged her.

Suddenly May spoke. "Merry Christmas Ash." May said.

"Merry Christmas May." I replied. "She's just so beautiful..."

She was looking down at the floor and suddenly I hugged her. Her hair smelled smelled like strawberries. I quickly let go but she then hugged me.

"Well come in." I said.

" I cant even get myself to talk to her. I need to clear my head."

"Come on Pikachu" I said.

May's POV

As I was inside talkig with Brock and Dawn I noticed that Ash was going outside. I followed him but by the time I was outside he was gone. I followed his footsteps to the lake where he sat on a bench talking to Pikachu.

"Should I tell her? Or not? What do I do Pikachu!? She's gotten even more beautiful than the last time I saw her. I'm so lost, I love her but I cant tell her. What if she doesn't feel the same?" He stared over the lake. "I just wish she knew how I feel, when I risked my life for her... I did it because I loved her... I still do."

I waked over to him. "Mind if I join you?" I asked.

"May!" He said startled as he stood up. "I didn't know you followed me."He said. "May there's something I need to tell you."

Ash's POV

"May there's something I need to tell you... May...I love you..."

"... I love you too..." She said.

"R-really?" I said shocked at what I heard.

"Yes. I've loved you since we met. I didnt know what it was that I felt at first but over time as it got stronger I realized... it was love." May replied

I hugged her and kissed her, it was the most amazing feeling.

"May." I said stepping back, I pulled out a small black box and handed it to her.

"What is it?" She asked.

"Open it."

She opened it and pulled out a silver necklace with a tear drop shaped sapphire.

"Its beautiful... thank you Ash." She said.

"Merry Christmas May." I replied

"I got you soemthing too." She said as she pulled out a pokèball from her pocket. "Its for you." She said.

"What is it?" I asked her.

"Throw it and find out." She answered.

"Well here goes, go pokèball!" There was a flash and there stood a Riolu. "May! This is awesome thank you!" I exclaimed.

"Merry Christmas Ash." She said.

"I love you May." I told her.

"I love you too Ash." She replied.
