Angel's Quote;

Angel: Nearly 1am and It's going to take me until 1:30am. Haha! Anyways last chapter it showed that Dawn saw Ash on T.V. And that Dawn is on her way to Pallet Town to meet Barry. Which he REALLY has to tell her something! Enjoy this one!

Ok, so this is my first time using those 'Shipping' things.. (Well not really the first...) So I think this story is a Twinleafshipping, and I don't know about the other one.. was it a Pearlshipping? Idk. Well on with the chappy!

Dawn's POV

I stood on the dock of the boat and watched the waves hit the side of the boat. While my Piplup who evolved into Empoleon was sleeping beside me.

I sighed as I thought about Barry. It would be shocking if in the next hour he'll grab my hands and told me how he feel's about me. I would litterly cry and tell him how I feel about him. I sighed again as I leaned over the railings.

"...Barry..." I whispered under my breath. I closed my eyes as I listened to the waves crash and the quiet snores of Empoleon. Then Ash's face blocked my thinkings of Barry.

"Ash." I said as shook my head. "No, I can't like someone who hurted me and never came back to apologize to me." I said to myself. "Barry is better than Ash. He has the looks, style, and personality... But his maturity needs work."

An hour past and I made it to Pallet Town.

Barry should be around here somewhere. I feel sorry for him if he had to wait here for at least half a day for me...

Empoleon called out and pointed to our left.

I looked over and saw this tall figure of Barry leaning againts the bars of the dock with a small smile as he looked straight at me with those beautiful orange eyes.

My heart started to pound faster in my chest.

Wow, just look at him, he gorgeous!

He wore his old runners, denim jeans, a white sweater with his green scarf around his neck. His blonde hair grew at least one or two inches longer and he was at least Ash's height. Then I saw that dark blue and black bracelet with a penguin shape on it around his wrist.

He still has it! I gave that to him after we first met.

I then touched the bracelet he gave me the same day I gave him his. The colour is black and green with a turtle shape on it. It was very surprisingly that we both had one and decided to give it to eachother to remember forever.

"Dawn...?" The little blonde boy said shyly after a fun day at the park with his new friend.

"Yes, Barry?" I looked at him with my deep navy blue eyes.

Barry took out a bracelet. "I want to you to have this..."

I gasped as I surprisingly had a exact same bracelet.

Barry put the bracelet around my slender wrist as it was too big then.

"Oh, Barry. Thank you!" I hugged him. "I have the same bracelet but different." I said and took out the bracelet and put it around his wrist. "And I want you to have it too."

"Thank you! Now we both have something that we could have forever." Barry said.

I giggled.

Empoleon growled softly to get me back on earth.

I blinked and saw Barry walk up to me. A slight blush went across my cheeks as he came closer.

"Hey, Dawn. It's been forever!" Barry said with his childhood smile.

"Hey, Barry. I know, we never saw eachother since we went into highschool... Until you moved here." I said as I had to look up a little since he was at least a foot taller than me.

"Yeah, I called you because I missed my best friend so much." Barry said sheeplishly as he shrugged his shoulders.

It must of sounded to childish for him to say that if he looked like that.

"Awh, Barry. I missed you so much too!" I said as I hugged him. I knew he was shocked because he didn't hug back ten seconds later.

We pulled away and I cleared my throat. "So, your little Piplup is now envolved into a strong Empoleon." Barry said as he smiled at Empoleon. "I can imagine how hard it was for you and for Empoleon to evolve."

I nodded and I put a hand on empoleon's shoulder. "Yep, took weeks for me to get use of it after the first evolve. But everybody changes, changes are good. That's what I told myself. Now I'm ok." I said.

"That's good." Barry said.

"So, my mom said that you wanted to tell me something urgent. She even winked at me when she said you told her something that she can't tell me." I said.

Barry's face flushed as he remembered what it was. He started rubbing the back of his neck.

"Well...?" I said waiting desperatly for a answer. "Please tell me!"

"I... I don't know how to put it." He said as he tried thinking his words. "Ok, since we were young... I sorta... Had this... Huge crush on you."

Ok! I almost screamed! Don't scream, Dawn, Don't Scream! You're not thirteen anymore, Dawn. I reminded myself.

"Really?!" I said in shock. "... I sorta had a crush on you too..." I said.

Yes, I said it!

Then Empoleon decided to walk away leaving the two of us alone.

I watched as Empoleon went up to a sick child in a wheel chair.

I smiled.

"You do?" Barry said making me blink back at him.

I nodded. "I always have, I guess."

Barry chuckled. "I did too. That's why I wanted you to come here. I wanted to treat you out somewhere nice. I found a few places we could go."

"That would be nice." I said with a smile.

"And maybe later we could go see Ash. I know you never saw him in a long time." Barry added.

My face went pale. Ash? But what if I'm not ready to see Ash. Plus I'm kind of scared to even see him.

"Um... I don't know. Ever since the incident I don't really want to see him right away." I said.

"But it's been six years. But don't worry I won't force you." Barry said.

"Thank you.." I sighed in relief.

Moments passed of awkward silence as I tried to find something to brake it but it seemed like Barry broke it.

"First things first!" Barry said pointing his finger between us.

"Huh?" I looked at him. "What's that?"

"A Pokemon battle. We never battled since we were traveling." Barry said with a smirk.

I smirked back. "Yeah, we should. I've been training my Pokemon for years now. I might beat you again."

Barry's smirk went wider. "Oh, really? I've been training too. And I might be able to beat you this time."

"How many times did you say that?" I asked with a smile.

"Ok that's it!" Barry yelled as he stepped away from me holding up the Pokeball in his hand. "Are you ready to meet the new champion here now?"

"Aw, thank you! I'm new again!" I said teasingly.

Barry gritted his teeth and through the Pokeball yelling out. "STARAPATOR, GO!" Barry shouted as Starapator came out of the Pokeball.

I also took a Pokeball out and through it. "GO, AMBIPOM!" I shouted as Ambipom stood in front of me. Ready to go.

"The battle starts... NOW!"

Angel: Well that was fun I guess... But I'm half asleep so... Yeah. Next chappy it would be the battle ending because I can't do the battle, and Dawn and Barry's 'date'

You: *Sarcasticly*No... Really? I thought it was a Pokemon picnic.

Benz: Shut up, I said I'm- ZZZzzzz...

You: ... Hmm... BYE! *Leaves*

Benz: AWW, She added me in here, back in those dayz when I didn't know she wrote it! :D The last chapter Angel wrote is the next one!
