Hello it's me again!

That is so awesome! Thank you! I'm so happy to see that some like this book

I know that I took my time this time but I warned you and hey, the first three chapters came actually really quickly.

Anyway, let's start!

Disclaimer: I do own Pokémon ... in my dream world


Last time our small group of little heroes, spent the night in a cave and finished packing and cleaning up in order to leave the cave how it was before they set up camp.
It was still in the morning and the sun was now going to rise and rise until it reaches its noon position before it slowly descends until it is under the horizon. The sky was clear and the wind was slowly and calmly drifting. It was the perfect weather to cross a mountain.
Right now, the group is leaving the little cave

"Hey guys, are we ready to go?" Clemont asked

"Ummm... Let me think. We packed up the tents, recalled our pokémons, cleaned the table and packed it up afterwards. I think we're ready to go." Serena told Clemont

"Ok then let's go!" Ash exclaimed eagerly while fist pumping the air

"Pika pi!" Pikachu did the same including the fist pump

"Hey Pikachu, wanna get back inside my backpack?" Ash asked his long-life partner

"Pika pika chu" Pikachu answered before jumping onto Ash's shoulder

"I take that as a no." Ash said as he chuckled a bit

Serena just had to smile at the sight of her love and his best buddy. She just stared at the two smiling before spacing out for a while.

'They sure are best friends. Even if they are different species. I hope that I'll have a bond like Ash's and Pikachu's with my pokémons one day. Maybe I should let Eevee out. Eevee is shy but I'm sure that she isn't afraid of heights. It would be great for our bond if we spent more time together. I mean lately, Eevee spends more time with Pikachu and their bond seems to grow more and more. She isn't scared of him anymore.' Serena thought

"Eevee come out." Serena exclaimed while releasing Eevee

"Eevee?" Eevee questioned

"Hey Eevee, wanna cross this mountain with us?" Serena asked

"Ee!" Eevee responded before jumping into Serena's arms

"Serena, why did you release Eevee?" Ash wanted to know

"Because you want to strengthen your bond with Eevee, right?" Clemont concluded

"Yup, that's right." Serena confirmed his thoughts

"But isn't Eevee scared ? " Bonnie inquired

"No, she is shy but that doesn't mean she is afraid of heights, right Eevee ?" Serena told her

"Ee Eevee!" Eevee exclaimed before performing a back flip

"Look. Not scared of heights. And it seems that her shyness decreases." Serena pointed out

"I've seen her and Pikachu often together, lately. Pikachu seems to affect her shyness. And besides that, Eevee isn't scared of Pikachu anymore." Clemont told his observations

"Really Pikachu? Do you help her overcoming her shyness?" Ash asked his friend Pikachu

"Pika pika chu" Pikachu answered sheepishly, scratching behind his head just like his trainer

"That's great! You should spend more time with her. I wonder why I didn't notice it." Ash told his number one pokémon. Thereupon, Pikachu nodded.

'Wait did he just say that I should spend more time with Eevee?! And why am I so happy about it ?Ok I know why. Does this mean that he has ulterior motives or did he say it only because of my help decreasing her shyness. Ok it is Ash I'm talking about. Of course he hadn't ulterior motives. Anyway, I should use my chances as long as they exist. I'll walk with Eevee later when we walked for a bit.' Pikachu thought

"Ash you don't notice a lot." Bonnie pointed out

"That's not true! I notice a lot. I just didn't notice this thing." Ash responded

"Sure Ash, you notice everything." Bonnie told him in a sarcastic voice

"Yeah I told you so." Ash said without realizing that Bonnie didn't mean it seriously

'Oh boy, should I tell him about sarcasm later in our men talk? Better not. I don't want to overstrain his dense brain. Clemont first one thing. Don't exaggerate. It will be an impossible challenge to explain love to him.' Clemont thought completely forgetting to facepalm himself

The group didn't realize that they were still in front of the cave not moving one inch until Serena pointed out that they didn't start moving

"Umm guys, how about we start moving?" Serena suggested sweatdropping

"Oh, yeah we should do that." The others said simultaneously sweatdropping

And with that they started moving. Ash and Serena leading the way. Pikachu and Eevee following behind, and Bonnie and Clemont being the end of the group.

Bonnie and Clemont

"Hey Bonnie, do you think that I can teach Ash something about love in order to lessen his denseness" The lemon haired boy asked

"Wait what!? You're going to explain love to him?! Clemont are you insane?! Didn't you forget that you were as dense as him" His little sister almost yelled at him

"Bonnie, I'm not as dense as Ash ... anymore. It's true I was dense but now, I'm fully aware of the topic love and of Serena's feelings for him. And it is worth a try, right?" Clemont explained

"All right but try to not overstrain his dense brain. It may cause some trouble and repeated questions for you." His sister told him

"I already knew it. But the results may be advantageous for all of us."

"Why may be?" The future pokemon caretaker inquired

"Yeah I already imagined some scenarios. There are plenty of them but I'll tell you only the most probably scenarios. The first one is the one I also hope will happen.
After an easy love lesson, he'll realize that he always had feelings for Serena. Then he'll confess to her within the next few days and then they'll become a happy couple.
But the other scenario ends a bit different and I hope that it won't happen.
I try to teach everything about love to him but he keeps asking the same questions and in the end, we all forget about it and continue travelling as if nothing happened. And this causes that Serena has to do the first step.
But that is not the worst scenario I imagined. The worst one is :
I teached Ash everything that he needs to know and he understands it-" Clemont explained until his younger sister had to interrupt

"And why's that the worst scenario? I mean Ash finally understands love, right?" Bonnie asked

"Bonnie! Let me finish my sentence first, please. It's rude interrupting other people when they're talking." The older brother scolded her

"Fine. So continue!"

"Ok where was I ?" He asked nobody in particular

"Ahh yes. So Ash finally understands love and then I realize something.-" Clemont started but got interrupted by none other than Bonnie

"What!? What do you realize!? Tell me please! You need to tell me, Clemont !"Bonnie demanded a little freaked out

"I was about to tell you but I got interrupted by someone!" Clemont almost shouted, a bit irritated by Bonnie's continuous interruptions
His little sister just sweatdropped and apologized immediately

"Sorry brother"

"Bonnie what did I tell you ,only a few minutes ago " Clemont asked now calmer

"You told me that I should let people finish their sentences." Bonnie repeated his words

"And what did you do wrong?" Clemont asked knowing the answer

"Umm.. actually nothing. I did let you finish your sentence. So why did I have to apologize?"

Clemont face palmed himself so hard again so that it created an echo.

"What was that?" Ash asked

"I don't know maybe a pokémon?" Serena answered

Back to Clemont and Bonnie

"Just forget it, Bonnie and let me finish my whole statement." Clemont begged, desperate.

"Ok, but what did I do wrong?"

"Just FORGET it, Ok?!" He demanded

"Fine. So tell me what you may realize."

"OK. So Ash understood everything and then I ask him about Serena. Something like : 'Is Serena different compared to your past female companions or is she better or more special.' And I know that Ash travelled with other girls than Serena 'cause Kalos isn't his first region he travels in, so I assumed that he at least travelled with one girl in his travelling group. But I could just ask him directly whether he likes Serena. But then he answers with a different answer than hoped something as bad as : 'Nah my other companions are more special especially the one with the piplup.' ( Note: They don't know about the female companions but they do know that Ash knows somebody with a piplup so I just gave them some extra knowledge )
Or the worst one: You wanna know if I like Serena, right? To clear your question, I don't like Serena nor love her. Or something as directly as that.
So I hope that this scenario won't happen because it could make this journey awkward or even worse it could split our group. OK, that probably won't happen but there is still a chance." Clemont finished telling her about the different scenarios

"But that will never happen because Ash loves Serena."Bonnie stated, unwilling to believe her brother

"And why would you know that?"

"We both know why! He treats her differently compared to us. He always cares about her. Always helps her. Always cheers her up when she feels bad. And never treats her as if she wasn't someone special to him. Am I right?"

"Yeah but-" As always Clemont gets interrupted by his younger sister

"No buts! Do you remember our encounter with Diancie and Xerneas? Yes you do! So then you should remember that Ash helped Serena to cross a small tree trunk. He held her hand and helped her. He only held her hand. Not even my own hand! I crossed that log on my own. I mean that help was unnecessary. And do you remember Coumarine town? Of course you do! Ash gave Serena a beautiful blue ribbon which she still wears. Did we get any presents from Ash? No we didn't! And do you know why? Because We aren't as special as Serena is for him! And that's ok. No it is good because he should love Serena not us! So do you still have any second thoughts?" Bonnie told the whole story

"Umm-" Clemont thought but Bonnie interrupted him

"Your answer is No ! So what did you want to say?" Bonnie gave him no other choice

"No I have really no seconds thoughts. So that means that I should just forget my worst case scenario."

"Yeah you MUST do that!"

"Fine. So I shouldn't worry about my talk with Ash later ,anymore"

"When do you plan to do it?" Bonnie wanted to know

"I think I should do it now."

"Really?! So then shall I distract Serena?"

"Yeah that would make things a lot easier for me. Thanks Bonnie!"

"No probs Bro!"

"So then let's start!" Clemont exclaimed

At the same time

"Hey Eevee, why did Clemont and Bonnie think that you're afraid of heights? I mean you're not, since you walk easily beside me." Pikachu asked

"You know why and they know that I'm shy. So they also thought that I'm weak. And a weakling is scared of everything. So they weren't completely wrong 'cause I'm weak." Eevee stated completely losing her self confidence

"Eevee! What are you talking about?! You're not weak! I mean everybody has weak spots and yours is your shyness but that doesn't make you weak. 'Cause if you have been weak then everybody would be weak. Look you overcame your shyness! Are you afraid of me?"

"No"

"So that means that your trying to fight your shyness. You don't need to be brave but small courageous things could change a lot. I mean you nearly talked with me when we first met but later and later we talked more frequently!"

'Courageous things?' Eevee thought

"Yes, you're right. I'm not weak and not brave like you but I'll work on that with small courageous things!"

"Yeah that's the spirit!" Pikachu stated

'Then should I really do that? He said that small courageous things could change a lot . But-... No buts he's right so GO FOR BROKE Eevee!' Eevee discussed in her mind

"Hey Pikachu, may I ask you for a favor?"

"Sure what is it?"

"Umm.. Caa-n-n I-I- hol-d-d you-r-r haaaanddd?" Eevee asked doing the first step becoming less shy. But at the same time her face did the first step to become a tomato.

'Wait ! Does it mean that she loves me?! I don't know much about love but I do know that you don't want to hold somebody's hand if you don't like like them, right? I mean I never saw Eevee holding Bunnelby's hand. So I think that she maybe but just maybe likes likes me...' Pikachu thought in his mind while he blushed a bit at the beginning but then he felt his heart jumping and sparking with electricity. He felt like his heart was using volt tackle and thunderbolt at the same time. He just couldn't describe it properly but one thing was sure. The feeling was somehow good and the most important fact was: He liked it. At first, he couldn't identify this feeling but then realized something. He has the same feelings for ketchup. He knows that he likes.. no loves ketchup but his feelings for ketchup are much weaker compared to his current inner sensation. So he put one and one together and figured out...

'I love Eevee.'

And that was the final thing which wandered in his head. All of that happened within roughly ten seconds. It was like his brain was using quick attack to process everything in just ten seconds but these ten seconds were like a whole hour for Pikachu. His brain was rushing so much that he almost forgot Eevee's bold question. But he just almost forgot. The moment he realized it, his answer came out of his mouth like Hitmonchan's punch.

"Yes!"

'He said yes! Does it mean that he likes me?! Or did he do it because-' Eevee's inner fangirling stopped when she realized that she has no hands

"Wait what!? I have no hands how are we supposed to hold hands, now?" Eevee freaked out feeling disappointed and a bit embarrassed. But Eevee wasn't the only one was sad. Pikachu felt his heart suffering a tackle. It was weak but strong enough to change his mood. But then Pikachu had an idea

"Oh yeah, I didn't realize it. But if you want we could hold hands when we make stop next time. I mean we could hold paws when we're sitting so that you don't have to try to stand on two feet. Of course only if you want to." Pikachu suggested giving her his wide smile

"Of course Pikachu! I would love to hols your hands even if it was for a moment." Eevee blushed a deep shade of red when she realized what she said. But she didn't take it back since she wanted to become courageous and maybe and just maybe brave. But that is another mission.

"So then let's hope that we'll stop soon!" Pikachu exclaimed

"Yeah... can't wait" Eevee said but her voice faded at the last part so that Pikachu couldn't hear it

'Mission accomplished! Yesss!' Eevee's thought

'Oh Bunnelby. I'm going to win this!' Pikachu exclaimed inwardly

Still at the same time but this time at the front of the group

"Hey Serena, do you know what the deal with what happened this morning is?" Ash asked still unaware and dense. So almost the same Ash as always. But just almost. Normally Ash would have just forgot it by now but Ash couldn't just forget it because everything felt so weird for him

"Huh? Whaaa-t-t do-o yo-u-u me-a-n? Ther-e wa-sss nothing this morning, right?" Serena stuttered feeling shocked since normally Ash would never think twice. Her cheeks used heat wave and her forehead used some kind of rain dance move since her cheeks turned really really red and her forehead was soaking wet.

"Yeah was actually nothing this morning but still Bonnie freaked out just because we almost kissed. I don't know why she freaked out. Do you? And why is your face so red and why are you sweating? It isn't warm here and this wandering isn't exhausting."

"Umm... umm..." Serena tried to find an answer for him without revealing her feelings for him

"Hey Serena, can we talk for a bit?" A little girl with lemon colored hair and a Dedenne on her head asked eagerly after sprinting to her

"Yes!" Serena immediately replied seeing and taking the chance to escape from the weird and embarrassing situation

"Yaayyy!" Bonnie exclaimed before taking Serena's hand to drag her back to the end of the group

On their way to the end of the group, Bonnie and Serena saw Clemont walking to the front with an uneasy and sweaty expression on his face but a small hint of determination was visible

'That's it Clemont! No way back from now! I know that this is a task which Arceus himself could not complete. But I do it for Ash and Serena. They are my friends and they deserve to be happy. And it makes me happy when they're happy. But my nerves and my brain won't be happy probably.' Clemont thought before he risks his mind by informing Ash about ... Love


So that was chapter 4!
