5. Ikarishipping

Year of the Ships- Part 5

A/N- Uh... I can explain! I'm late because of Bright House Networks! They keep disconnecting my internet because of the work they're doing to the cables across street. So, that means late chapters, unfortunately...

Anyway, it's time for Ikarishipping! Yay! This is one of my personal faves, but it's been a loooooong time since I've seen the Sinnoh episodes, and I lost my DVD, so I'm sort of rusty at writing their characters. Bear with me, peoples of fanfiction.

Enjoy!

"And it seems our clear winner is Dawn!" Marian said, pointing to the large board with the two coordinators on it. May Maple's picture disappeared to make way for a picture of Dawn with her Mamoswine.

May smiled at Dawn from across the field. "Blaziken, return." She mumbled. She walked over to May, a huge smile on her face. "Congratulations, Dawn! You're in the Grand Festival!" May said happily.

Dawn smiled. "Thanks, May. You were a great opponent, by the way." She said.

"Thanks. I'm gonna get going, now. I have a date with Drew." May said. She blushed slightly, and walked out of the contest hall.

Marian handed Dawn her ribbon, and she held it up for all the world to see.

"Yeah! Great job, Dawn!" Ash yelled from the stands. Next to him, Brock cheered... For the Nurse Joy judging.

Facepalming, and hoping that Brock had brought Croagunk with him, Dawn did a 180 to view the rest of the crowd, and then walked out of the contest hall.

Immediately upon entering the changing room, her vision was obscured by a mass of purple. She looked up into the dark eyes of her new boyfriend, Paul.

"Hi Paul!" She said happily. Paul smiled, which was still a strange expression for him.

"Nice job out there, Dawn." He said, as happily as possible. His voice still came out in a low drawl, and Dawn frowned.

"Oh, my poor boyfriend is unhappy! I have to do something! But what?" She asked the air, tapping her chin. "Oh! I know! How about this?" She stood up of her tip-toes, and smooshed her lips against his.

Drawing away, she was relieved to see a real, genuine smile on his face. "I knew that would work!" She said happily. Paul nodded.

"You know what I like." He said. Dawn smiled.

"That's because you're my boyfriend! My very cute, adorable boyfriend... Who really needs to stop wearing mascara..." She muttered, noticing that his eyes were much dark than they should be.

Paul shrugged. "I like it. Makes me look goth." He said. Dawn frowned.

"Well, I don't." She said sadly. She suddenly perked up, jumping up and down. "Hey! Hey! Paul! Hey!" She yelled, waving her arms.

Paul looked at her. "What?" He asked, slightly annoyed.

"Wanna go on a date?" She asked slyly. Paul smiled, the smile reaching his cold eyes and spreading warmth into them.

"Like I said, you know what I like." He said. Dawn squealed and led him out of the dressing room, sending a quick text to Ash and Brock so they knew not to look for her. She wanted some alone time with her adorable boyfriend...

A/N- I hope I did their personality's right. It get's so confusing with all those different characters, but I think I did alright. Next up should be Breedershipping(Another one of my absolute favs), and then after that probably... Uh... How about you guys pick? I can't decide... Tell me which ships you like in the comments, and I will try to do them justice.

Remember to R&R!
