Chapter 5- Can You Fix It?

I know that I've been producing these chapters quite slowly, and I'm sorry for that. I'll try and do better! Thank you to all those continuing fans who have read every single chapter! I'm already on pokémon number five~! Hopefully, when my Summer break starts I can start producing chapters more quickly, then I can actually get to generation two! (sorry for such a small goal... -_-) I was also thinking that there's going to be like a thousand chapters if I do every single generation, so I was thinking of making sequels and that stuff and possible using the same picture, if you agree please tell me! Sorry for talking so much, now lets start Charmeleon's debate!

Please accept me! I know these circumstances are different, but please don't reject me!

"I've liked you ever since I could remember Riza...And I was thinking that we could possibly go out some time," says a sixteen year old boy with slicked back red hair and cool blue eyes.

"Sorry..." says Riza with a bittersweet smile. "But I just don't like you like."

"What?" asks the boy, Zod.

"I'm really sorry," says Riza, unapologetically.

"How pathetic!" says a voice from behind them. Both teenagers turn to see a girl with short, spikey, bi-colored hair with a baby face and energetic blue eyes sitting on the brick railing to the stairs of the school.

"He's more feminine that man really," says Riza with a cocky smirk. She crosses her arms and seems to be looking down on Zod, " mean, I talked to him like once and he thinks it's love!"

"Not him!" yells the girl as she pushes off the wall and hooks her arm around Zod's neck. "You!"

"What?" asks Riza, bewildered.

"It probably took a lot of courage to tell you his feelings! Not to meantion you just squash them as if they were inconveinant! You love terminator!" says the girl as she points an accusing finger at Riza. "You don't even have the decency to go out with him!"

"I never said that I wanted to go out with him!" snaps Riza. "Why should I be viewed as the bad guy for rejecting him?"

"Well... you shouldn't," says the girl, shocked. "It's really quite fine you don't like him, you just don't have to be mean about it."

"Can you two stop talking as if I'm not standing right here?" asks Zod

"Shush please, we're trying to talk," says the girl as she puts her hand over his face.

"Oi!" yells Zod as he wipes it off, of sorts, "quit touching me and leave us alone! A level one like you can't possible understand this!"

"Love knows no age!" yells the girl as she puffs out her cheeks, she then glares over her shoulder at Riza. "Why do you even like this girl?"

"What?" asks Zod, kind of taken aback.

"Why. Do. You. Like. Her?" asks the girl slowly, enunciating each word.

"Well..." says Zod as he scratches the back of his head. "Everyone says we go well together... and we seem to get along... now that you mention it..."

"You don't really like her," finishes the girl with an understanding nod of her head.

"I guess you can say that," laughs Zod.

"Then why did you waste my precious time to tell me that!" yells Riza as an angry blush covers her face. She storms off into the building with a slam of the front doors.

"Ow!" says Zod as he gets flicked on the nose by the girl. "What'cha do that for!"

"Stop being so flighty and pick a girl already!" yells the girl.

"She was the first girl I confessed to Dodo, how does that make me flighty?" asks Zod as he rubs his now raw nose.

"You didn't like her in a snap! That's flighty," says Dodo.

"Some people wish they can get over someone that quickly!" yells Zod.

". . . I'm hungry!" says Dodo as it took her a while to process.

"What?" asks Zod.

"Ice cream~! Can we go have some ice cream~!" says Dodo excitedly as she starts to jump up and down.

"But we were... just... the conversation!" says Zod confused.

"ICE CREAM!" yells Dodo with little tears in her eyes.

"Fine..." sighs Zod, giving in to the insanity that Dodo calls life.

"Yes," says Dodo as she does a victorious fist pump.

"Come on or we'll be late for diner," says Zod as he grabs his bag and money.

"Ice cream! you scream! We all scream! For ice cream!" sings Dodo as she skips though the gates.

"Do you actually know why they are screaming for ice cream?" asks Zod as he watches Dodo.

"No. Why?" asks Dodo as she turns around and starts walking backwards, facing Zod as they talked.

"I-I don't know why, t-that's why I asked you. I thought you knew," says Zod, feeling like this conversation could have been prevented.

"Not a clue~!" says Dodo happily as she continues to skip. Zod let's out a loud sigh.

"Cheer up! Cheer up!" says Dodo has she pats him on the back. "You can't eat ice cream with a sad face~!"

"Wha!" yells Zod as Dodo's sudden apperance frightens him. "How did you get there?"

"A friend in need is a friend indeed!" laughs Dodo as she skips ahead.

"Don't just say random proverbs that fit the context!" scolds Zod.

"Kill two birds with one stone," says Dodo with a brief serious face.

"Just get your stupid ice cream so we can go," says Zod as they arrive at the Ice Cream Shop.

"I want chocolate~! No, or should I get cherry? But mint will freshen my breath... hum..." deliberates Dodo. "Which one should I get~?"

"I don't care, I'm not eating it," says Zod as he looks at his money. Only enough to buy one cone if I want to eat tomorrow.

"I want all three~!" says Dodo cheerfully as she tells the clerk.

"That's not what I meant!" yells Zod, starting to panick.

"But I want it," pouts Dodo on the brink of tears. It took Zod three seconds to look at that face before he gives in.

"Okay," sighs Zod. I just won't be able to eat... why am I even with this girl!

"Thank you," says Dodo sweetly as she get's handed her ice cream cone.

"You're lucky I have to look over you," says Zod as he reluctantly hands over his lunch money. "If I didn't, people would think that I'm being bullied by a two year old..."

"I'm not two year old!" yells Dodo, getting genuinely angry. "I'll be level two like you on my next birthday!"

"Ah~! To be young and naïve~!" says Zod as he pretends to be brought back to simplier times.

"Stop thinking that I'm so young! I'm smarter then you think!" says Dodo as she puffs out her cheeks.

"If you're so smart then why does your Mom pay me to tutor you?" asks Zod as he starts having an arrogant way to his walk now.

"I'm not that stupid," pouts Dodo, starting to get depressed.

"Come on Dodo," says Zod with a big smile on his face as he slaps her on the back, trying to get her energized again. "Why are you so down? I'm the one who got rejected! Why are you so sad!"

"You're over it now?" asks Dodo as she looks up at him with sparkling eyes.

"Of course! I already told you that I was," says Zod.

"Good for you!" says Dodo. "That's Zod for you! Never get down!"

"Come on! Our moms might get mad that we're so late already," says Zod as he starts running towards their houses. He tries taking deep breaths to slow his rapidly beating heart. I thought my doctor gave me medicine for this. Why does my heart still hurt like this?

"Zod! Wait up~!" whines Dodo as she tries to catch up with him. "My legs aren't as long as your's are!"

Zod then stops and looks back at her, waiting. "You see, this is why I treat you like a two year old," says Zod.

"So if I start acting like a woman you'll treat me better?" asks Dodo as she perks up.

"Of course," laughs Zod.

"Then wait for me!"says Dodo as she points at him and places one hand on her hip. "In two weeks I'll become a real woman!"

"In two weeks you'll become a level two," says Zod. "Then you'll be literally a woman!"

"Just wait!" yells Dodo as she runs ahead and waves good-bye to Zod over her shoulder.

"Where are you going?" calls Zod.

"To be a woman!" yells Dodo over her shoulder. Zod just stares at her as she leaves, his heart racing again.

"Tch," says Zod as he rubs his chest. "I feel... worried. I hope she's not getting into trouble." Zod just shakes his head. This might not be good.

Two weeks later

Zod walks down the street with his head down as he starts to think.

"Zod!" calls one of his friends as he runs and puts Zod in a headlock. "Don't walk around with that stupid look on your face! You look too sad!"

"It's nothing..." says Zod as he shoulders his friend off.

"Come on! Just tell me already!" says his friend.

"I told you I won't so I won't!" yells Zod, angry.

"Okay! Okay! Settle down dude," says his friend as he backs away slowly.

I can't tell him I worried about Dodo, he'd think I was an idiot. Gahhh! Why am I even worried about that bimbo! Is it because I haven't seen her in a week? Am I going through some sort of Dodo withdrawl? That's not good~. That would mean that I'll have to see her at least once a week, and my wife might get suspecious and I'll probably divorce her and it'll become a vicious cycle! Why am I worrying about this now?

"Hey Zod? Are you okay?" asks his friend as he slaps him on the back.

"What?" asks Zod as he jumps a few paces forward, trying to keep his balance after his friend rocked him off of it.

"I was asking you a question and you just spaced out on me," says his friend as he rubs the back of his head, worried. "Are you okay?"

"Can you ask the question again?" asks Zod with an embarressed laugh. "I didn't quite catch it."

"I wanted to know if you'll meet my girlfriend," says his friend as he continues to walk towards school.

"I already met her!" says Zod, irritated as he falls into step with him.

"Nah... not that one," laughs his friend. "Me and her broke up. I got a new one though! You should really meet her! She's so cute and energetic! Just you're type!"

"Oi! Are you trying to make me meet your girlfriend or setting me up," says Zod as he glares at his friend.

"It's nothing like that!" laughs his friend. "I won't let you have her till I'm through with her! 'Kay?"

"You're terrible," says Zod with a snort.

"Not as bad as you are," says his friend as he slaps him on his back.

"Oi! Stop doing that," says Zod as he turns to look at his friend. "That really hurt you know! What if I did that to you?"

"Ah! Sorry," says his friend with a dip of his head. "Won't happen again."

"Better not," says Zod as he turns to continue to walk to school. "Because I'll be pretty mad if it does."

"Didn't mean to upset you," says his friend apologetically. "My bad."

'Don't worry, it wasn't you who put me in a bad mood," says Zod

"What?" asks his friend.

"Ah... never mind! My bad!" says Zod with a laugh. "I shouldn't have said anything. My bad. S-so this girlfriend of yours... w-when's the meeting again?"

"Zod?" asks a familiar voice behind them. Zod turns around to see Dodo standing there, with shoulder length, fluffy bi-colored hair and a made-up face. It took a moment for Zod to realize who she really was.

"Hey baby!" says his friend with a happy smile as he waves to her and pushes passed Zod.

"I thought we were meeting Zod tomorrow," says Dodo as her boyfriend gives her a kiss on the cheek because she turned her head.

"Dodo~! Why don't you ever kiss me?" asks her boyfriend with a pout.

"You haven't earned it yet!" giggles Dodo as she puts her hand in front of his face and smiles teasingly up at him, "You've gotta make me love you first~!"

"S-so youre dating Dodo?" asks Zod as he just stares at them, shell-shocked.

"Yeah~!" says the boyfriend with a cheesy grin on his face. " Week met after I broke up with my ex-girlfriend and begged me to teach her how to be a girlfriend! I could I resist such a cute girl?"

"So this is what you meant when you said you wanted me to wait till you become a woman?" asks Zod as he looks at the two, bewildered.

"Well... two weeks is a long time... and at first I was playing hard to get but then..." says Dodo as she looks away in embarressment, she then turns back to Zod with a fake smile. "Then I just got bored with waiting for you."

This can't be true! W-w-why would she... Argh! As if I care! She can date whoever she wants! What's it matter to me?

"I'm happy for you," says Zod with a fake smile of his own.

"Right! Right!" laughs his friend. "Hey baby! Why don't you invite some of your friends over so that Zod here won't be so lonely~!"

"Hey! That's going a little too far!" says Zod. "How is she going to find me a date so soon?"

"Actually..." says Dodo as she thinks for a while. "I actually have someone in mind."

"Not that level one girl," says Zod with a roll of his eyes.

"How'd t ya know?" asks Dodo with large eyes. "Well then! What about Iza? She's really cute! And she's what you call a 'real' woman."

"Oh... Really?" asks Zod as he puis his hands in his pockets. Aren't you a real woman? If not... then why did you ignore me for two weeks! I shouldn't be thinking about this.

"Sounds like fun!" says Zod with a fake smile. "When will these double date be? I'm kind of excited about it know!"

"W-what?" asks Dodo, stunned.

"Isn't that great sweetheart?" asks his friend with a big smile that showed off his fangs.

"Y-yeah!" laughs Dodo. "It's perfect~! I wanted to set her up for sooooo long! Let me tell you, she's a good catch!"

"I'll see you there," says Zod as he walks away.

"See you there!" calls Dodo. Zod just waves trying not to turn around, not wanting to show his face. He was so angry that his face was red. Stupid idiot! What does she think she's doing!

Zod straightens his collar, getting ready for his date. Honk-hooonnk! That was his friend. "That's me mom!" yells Zod as he runs out of the house.

"Make sure that you come home, on time!"says his mother from the living room.

"Okay mother," says Zod as he runs outside. His friend was honking furiously from his old, run-down car.

"Where've you been?" asks his friend from the front seat. Dodo was next to him, looking really gorgeous. In the back was a girl with long, fuzzy bright red hair and braces, waving frantically. Zod cringes as he looks at his date.

"Hi! I'm Iza!" laughs Iza energetically. She tries to climb out of the window and pull Zod in.

"Hey there Iza..." says Zod, a little scared of her.

"Come on Zod! Hurry up and get in!" yells his friend as he opens the door for Zod. "We're going to miss our reservations."

"Okay! Okay!" yells Zod as he climbs in.

"I'm so excited for this~!" squeals Iza. "We're going to have so much fun! You're going to have a romantic diner and then we're going to make out afterwards~!"

"Yeah~!" says Zod, unexcited. His friend then starts the car and drives off as Iza continues to talk about everything that will happen at the end of the date, and Zod didn't want any of this. I'm living in my own personal hell.

"Hey Iza?" asks Dodo after twenty minutes of her talking.

"Yeah?" asks Iza innocently.

"Shut up," says Dodo, completely irritated with her. Dodo didn't look back at Iza when she spoke to her, she continued to stare in front of her.

"W-what?" asks Iza, confused.

"I don't care what you do with him, just keep it to yourself," says Dodo, completely angry.

"S-sorry," says Iza as she shrinks back into the seats.

"It's fine, as long as you don't keep it up," says Dodo, still looking ahead.

"Here we are," says her boyfriend as he stops his car. He just waits for everyone else to get out of the car. When no body moves out of the car, the boyfriend drums his fingers, waiting for the others.

"So... this weather," says the boyfriend, trying to make small talk.

"We have reservations!" says Dodo as she opens her door. "Come on everybody! Let's get out, hurry up!"

The four teenagers fall out of the car and walk towards the resteraunt. "So what are you going to get?" asks Iza as she attaches her arm to Dodo as she drags the group forward.

"I-I was thinking...?" asks Dodo, unable to comprehend this situation, searching for something to distract this maniace. "What about you Zod?"

"I would love a steak," says Zod has he claps his hands together, starving.

"Oh! I would love that too!" says Dodo as she gets tugged into the resteraunt.

"Dodo?" asks Iza, not stopping for a beat or anything. "Can I see you in the bathroom?"

"I guess so," says Dodo with absolutly no say in the matter, being that Iza was still pulling her around like her own personal pet.

"Oh! Zod, party of four," says Zod to the girl in front.

"Right this way," ushers the girl as she picks up four menus and walks to their table.

"Thank you," says Zod with a slight bow of his head and a smirk.

"Isn't Iza something?" asks his friend as he hits Zod on the back really hard. "She's smart, intelligent and really down to earth."

"Sure," says Zod as he gives his friend a skeptical look. If clouds substitute as the ground. She really needs to get out of la-la land.

"So what do you think of her?" says his friend.

"For what?" asks Zod, kind of lost.

"For me!"

"What?"

"Yeah, Dodo isn't really doing it for me, if you know what I mean, and I was thinking about trading her in for a more... laid-back model."

"Wait, wait, wait! You're going to trade in Dodo because she doesn't agree with you?"

"Why not? She was just a toy. It's not as if I actually had feelings for her. Some one has hot as her... you really can only do one thing with."

That's when Zod punchs him in the face and his friend goes down... hard.

"What was that for man!" yells his friend as he touches the side of his face. "Are you insane?"

"Not as insane as you are," says Zod coldly. "How dare you treat Dodo like a toy!"

"Zod!" yells Dodo as she and Iza come out of the bathroom. Dodo runs to Zod and tries to hold him back. "Zod! What's the matter with you? Don't just hit people!"

"Whatever," says Zod as he shoulders her off and walks away.

"Where are you going?" whimpers Iza.

"Lost my appetite," says Zod as he leaves the resteraunt.

"You're not going to get away that easily!" yells his friend as he gets up and runs over to Zod. He then give him a punch to the face also and Zod loses his balance for a second before he was able to steady himself. Zod then gets a running start and punches his friend in the face, his friend once again going down.

"Zod!" says Dodo sharply as she stands inbetween of Zod and his friend, trying for them not to fight any more. "What's the matter with you! You would never do this under normal circumstances!"

"Normal circumstances? Normal Circumstances!" yells Zod. "Tell me, what normal circumstances are!"

"When you thought I was a little girl!" yells Dodo.

"I've never thought of you as a little girl!" yells Zod back. After he notices what came out of his mouth he quickly doubles back and rubs his forehead, trying to get the blush off his face.

"What?" asks Dodo, in shock.

"You just naturally fit me... so when I grew up I just assumped you grew with me," explains Zod quietly, trying not to look at her. "I always thought you'd be there for me, always a part of me. Now that I look at it, I know it wasn't fair to you. I'm sorry. I should have... noticed..."

"Notice what?" asks Dodo after Zod just trails off in thought.

"Notice my feelings," says Zod as he turns to look Dodo in her gorgeous eyes.

"Your... what?" asks Dodo, still in shock.

"I've just relied on you for so long that I just assumped that it was normal to see you... that way. But when you disappeared for two weeks I realized that it wasn't as normal as I thought at first. And when you came back, I was expecting you to come back to me... but when you didn't..."

Dodo just stares at Zod, trying to process what was happening. "And I was trying to convince myself that what I was feeling was wrong, and I didn't want to be hung up on you after you moved on... so."

"You idiot," cries Dodo as tears run down her cheeks. Zod looks up, shocked, and gets surprised attacked by a running kiss by Dodo. Her sweet cherry lip gloss meeting his lips as their lips collide. Zod had never felt this... feeling before he kissed her back, wanting this warm feeling so more.

"You're such an idiot," sobs Dodo when they parted. "How could you not see my feeling before."

"Don't you know?" laughs Zod as he pulls her in close for another kiss. "You're boyfriend is oblivious."

Sorry this one took so long to write... I was having major writers block and I wanted it to be perfect. Please don't hate me~! Thank you for reading! Hope to see you next time!

Okay, I know what you're thinking, did she really not want to take the time to actually name her character! The answer to that is no, I did think about it for more then a second and there is a meaning behind it. The japanese romaji name fore Charmeleon is Rizado (hence the names Riza, Zod, and Dodo) Dodo is just the ending doubled. I know you really don't care about that kind of thing, but I thought I should explain it. Wow! And all that leaves me now is to say good-bye! These go by so fast *sniff* :'( Next chapter is the one you've been waiting for~! That's right! The man I made as the main character! CHARIZARD! Please look forward to it! And if you like us, recommand!
