I'm telling you because their road is not easy to become one even if they fall in love easily. so without waiting further let's start this chapter.

chapter 3

suddenly they hear may's voice calling him. ash panics and hides behind the clothes pleading Serena not to tell.

may coming to Serena asks " Serena did you see ash anywhere here "

Serena looking towards where ash is standing tells" hmm, I don't know, I also don't know that he is standing behind this clothes. "

may go and find him standing there, she squeals and drag him where he glares at laughing Serena.

ash asks may " may where are you dragging me "

may with a wide smile answers " well I came to tell you that my friends are coming and they want to meet you and speak with you "

ash now confused " what do they want to speak with me "

may laughing " oh come on ash, you are like a celebrity, your father always win the best businessman of the year award every year without, so who doesn't want to meet you .more than that your mom was searching for you to meet your mom and come back to me so that I can introduce you to my friends "

ash grumbles " fine " telling that he goes away

...oooo...

ash comes to the living room to see all adults speaking.

he asks his mom " mom did you call me "

Delia smoking at him " yes ash, I wanted to say you not to go anywhere today since blue and Harry organized a big party today evening OK "

ash with a smile " oh OK, I had plans to go out tonight but don't worry I'll cancel it "

Delia very happy " good, now what you're doing "

ash frowning " well may's friends came who wants to meet me so I'm going to meet them "

Delia understanding " oh then you go"

hearing that ash goes to face hell, that is what he is feeling since he met may, always clingy.

after he goes Norman speaks " Mrs. Ketchum, this day your son and my daughter is spending lots of time, isn't "

Delia smiling " yeah I think something is going on with both of them "

Norman saw the right time " wouldn't be good for us if they marry, I mean now me and Harry are partners and when our children's marry we can be partners and merge our company into one, then our three empires will become one and then no one can stand against it what you say "

Delia after thinking " wow, it's a good idea, don't worry even if my son doesn't agree, I will make him agree to marry your daughter because my son will never go against me "

all adults become happy except blue oak since he doubts that somewhere it is going wrong. he sees his son frowning who was standing next to the door which confirms his doubt. he sees his son goes out where misty joins Gary and goes to the lawn.

...oooo...

two hours later ash was sitting with may and her friends, even misty and Gary was with them. Serena comes there with a juice for everyone and after serving she tries to go away but Misty held her back.

may babbling about Ash and his wealth which was making him very uneasy " you guys know Ash has so much wealth that they are capable of buying a whole Sinnoh region "

ash tries to stop her " may please stop "

may patting on his shoulder " oh common ash, it is normal to discuss this since the person present here all are rich " pausing she continues " well I know about everyone's status here but what about you Serena, are you rich, how much money do you have "

Serena simply with a smile " even I'm rich, I have 100 acres of land, 100 cattle, 500 sheep and poultry " she pauses with a thought and continues " more than that, I have my parents who love me more than all the money and rich and I love them more than my life " telling that she goes away and misty, Gary joins her

here ash cannot take his eyes off her.

seeing ash looking at Serena, may whines " ash why are you seeing her "

ash turning back " don't know, she intrigues me, I mean I see so many different faces of her, and she, without even trying she attracts many people. interesting very interesting "

seeing ash getting attracted to Serena, may whines " ash, why are you speaking about her, you need to concentrate only on me " because of which ash winces

...oooo...

it was just 2 hours before the party and misty and Serena was getting ready.

Serena after wearing shows " how is it, how am I looking "

misty with a big smile " wow sere, you look gorgeous. if I was a boy, I would have married you right away "

Serena shyly blushes " misty "

misty laughs " it's true "

Serena slightly adjusting her dress " well don't you think that this dress is slightly revealing, I mean I never liked this dress. my other friend Shauna forced me to buy this "

misty patting her shoulder " come on, it is OK to show some skin. so let's finish our make up "

Serena smiling " fine "

it was party time and the lawn was decorated fully, food and drinks were arranged, and the guests were started to come and the adults were already got ready and was speaking with the guests. one by one children's starts to come, first misty and Gary gives a grand entry to the party then ash and may where May was dragging ash. to escape from may's grip, ash smartly takes Brock's hand exchanges with his hand and he hides behind misty and Gary. may dragging Brock thinking him ash introduces him to her other friends who were not present before.

may with a wide smile " hey girls, this is my boyfriend and you know how rich he is " telling that she sees his face to get shocked

she exclaims " what are you doing and where is ash"

Brock laughing mocking her " well he kept your hand in mine and escaped, so what do you say, will you be my girlfriend and bear me a child " with a puppy dog eyes

she growls and goes in search of ash. ash who was hiding sighs in relief.

ash with a relief " thank god she went that way, I can be free for some time from her, she attaches to me like a leech "

misty laughing at her " she was just like that with that drew until his father went bankrupt "

ash exclaims " what "

Gary continues " yeah, I knew drew, he went into bad depression, he has suffered a lot because of her "

ash sighing " man I better maintain a distance from her "

Gary and Misty nods, suddenly blue calls them to meet his partners. Gary and Misty tell that they will come back and goes to their father blue.

ash was going to see his mother but gets stunned after seeing Serena, she was looking so gorgeous, he was feeling butterflies in his stomach. he notices many men ogling her and feels like taking her to a place where no one is there. she was going to speak with someone when he notices something so he immediately goes and stand back of her and covering her. seeing this she gets annoyed and moves away from there but he trails behind her.

she gets angry and frantically asks" why are you following me, what if someone sees us, they might think that something is going on between us to go away "

ash asks frantically " I can't so please come aside"

Serena walking away asks " why, I don't want you behind me, so go and I'm not at all coming with you "

ash once again tells " please come to that side "

she once again tells " no "

ash sighs trailing behind her " your tops hooks is open and it is revealing your beautiful back "

Serena stopping once but thinking he is fooling her starts to walk telling " no, your lying and I'm not going to believe you "

ash continue to trail behind her tells " you have two moles where one mole is big and another one is small "

Serena stops in track and checks when she confirms he is telling truth, she runs and stands behind the wall and tries to put the hook but fails.

seeing her attempts, ash goes to Misty who was speaking with Gary and tells " hey mist, your friend is calling you there " showing his finger towards Serena "

misty sees Serena indeed calling her, she excuses herself and goes to Serena.

misty asks " what happened Serena "

Serena tells frantically " hey help me misty, my top's hooks is open and I can't hook it back so, please "

misty smiling goes behind her and put the hooks and after that, she excuses and goes to Gary's side. here Serena's eyes were searching for ash.

suddenly ash comes next to her and asks " are you searching for me "

Serena seeing him tells " who would search you ahhh "

ash mocks her " oh come on, admit it that you were searching for me "

Serena huffs " fine I was searching for you "

ash with a wide smile " finally you admitted it, so why were you searching for me "

Serena smiling with gratitude " well I wanted to thank you and wanted to tell you that you are a good monkey "

ash with happiness pats his own shoulder and tells " congrats ash "

Serena seeing this confused asks " what are you doing "

ash smiling " well I just got promoted from pervert monkey to good monkey, "

Serena smiles and tries to go away

ash stops her and asks " hey I have a doubt "

Serena asks " what it is "

ask with a smile " well I got promoted from pervert to good monkey, so maybe something triggered in you "

Serena now confused " what! "

ash with a playful smile " something-something "

Serena quickly tells " nothing nothing "

ash once again " no there is something-something "

she finally tells " nothing " and goes away but he follows her and teases her throughout the party. she was very much annoyed at first but now she was starting to feel comfortable around him, actually more comfortable. he was following her still mocking her something-something, she did many things to escape him and one time by mistake she crashed Delia which angered Delia, she poured ice cubes inside his shirt, told may about him who was searching for him but still, he escaped may and once again followed her constantly telling something-something.

she finally escaped and sighs in relief when she hides behind the wall. she was about to go inside when she sees misty speaking with a guy where that guy was speaking rashly and misty was on the verge of tears. she goes to misty when that guy leaves, and misty hugs her crying when she sees Serena and tells everything.

Serena thinking for some time goes to ash giving her hands who tells " something-something " to which she nods which makes him happy and he dances around making some of the guests think that he is mad.

...oooo...

after the party, Serena, ash and misty gathered in his room where misty tells everything.

misty crying tells " his name is Rudy, I met him when I went to the orange island for an internship. me and Gary were in break and once I went to pub where I met him, at first meeting I felt he is good and I agreed to dance with him, it was sensual slow song for which we danced and while dancing he started to touch me where he shouldn't touch, I thought he is drunk because of which he is doing like that so I told him nicely but he kissed me forcefully, then I slapped him and went from there " she continues to sob

Serena comforts her and tells her to continue to which misty continues "after that, I saw him today only. Now he is blackmailing me by showing the photos of that time which shows him touching me and kissing me that he will make copies of it and give it to Gary and his family if I don't give him money and spend a night with him, he has given me 2 days maximum. what to do, I know about Gary and he won't believe me, I have already separated from him once and I don't want to separate from him " telling that she cries continuously

ash now annoyed asks Serena " is this your something-something "

Serena taking his hands " please ash, you are a youngster and adults won't understand and finally Gary, he never thinks before acting his feeling. please ash help us "

ash after thinking and knowing about Gary and misty fully, tells " fine, don't worry about it, I'll solve this problem and I'll get that photos back and give it you "

Serena hearing this squeals " thank you so much ash "

ash turning to Serena tells " and you are coming with me "

Serena nods.

ash asks " where did he tell you to come "

misty sniffing tells " he is staying in his rented house in pallet town. I'll give you the address " telling that she writes the address and gives him

...15 days...

ash and Serena watch his home whole day and watches his activities, they see that at night he is going out with a girl. thinking this is their chance, ash and Serena enters the house easily, since that idiot Rudy forgot to lock. they tiptoe into the house when ash was about to stamp on the dog by mistake, Serena saves him. they silently and quickly move away from the dog and starts to search the whole house. while searching ash comes across a pen drive, photocopies and camera, he takes everything and starts to search for Serena.

Serena was searching in one of the drawers of the table suddenly someone pats on her back for which screeches

ash calming her " hey, calm down, it's me, I got everything, every proof he had, so let's go "

Serena sighs in relief and smiles but that smile disappear seeing the growling dog back of them.

she asks to do ash " what to do now "

ash who was stunned seeing the growling dog tells " run "

both runs fast which results in dog chasing them. they immediately run to the bathroom where they hide in the shower room and close the sliding door. it was very congested and Serena was becoming very uncomfortable.

she asks " what to do now "

ash seeing the dog from the crack of the door tells " do one thing, you open the door slowly and go first which results in a dog following you and then I'll go and give this to Misty "

Serena glares at me " are you joking "

ash simply answers " no I'm serious "

Serena annoyed " then you do that and I will give them to misty "

ash simply " fine " telling that he goes to open the door .

she stops him holding his shoulder with concern and tells " hey it will bite you "

he freezes because of the current shock he felt when she held him with concern. even she felt the same and separates from him.

ash finally shows his playful smile.

then they try many tactics to escape the dog from everything fails. suddenly the valve opens and shower starts because of which both start to become wet.

Serena irritated " ash will you stop that shower"

ash nods and tries to close the valve but it comes into his hand because of which Serena becomes angry. when it became unbearable because of the water he stands in front of her and water falls only on him. suddenly his phone rings which he picks the call.

from another side " darling I miss you "

ash with a sexy voice " I miss you too baby "

their conversation continues because of which Serena becomes jealous. when she heard them talking about sex and...etc

she blasted him telling " are you nuts, we are in the middle of something "

ash laughing cuts the call and tells " jealous much "

Serena annoyed " why should I be jealous of you "

ash with a smile " because you have something-something towards me "

Serena huffs " cut your bullshit and think how we can escape "

ash giving a smile sees the dog once again and sees that dog is sleeping, so ash signals Serena and they tiptoe from the bathroom and closes the door behind. they try to go out but suddenly they see Rudy standing in front of them holding a gun and pointing at them leaving ash and Serena is shocked.

well, that's all for today's chapter.

will Rudy shoot them and kill them before they understand their feelings and fall in love

or will ash or Serena escape smartly?

let's see in the next chapter.
