Last time:

He decided to test the first one out and left his house for Dawn's house.

With Kenny:

Kenny arrived at Dawn's window and looked up. He saw some movement and decided that that was where Dawn was at the moment. He looked around the yard until he found what he was looking for: pebbles. He grabbed a handful of the smooth stones and went back in front of the window. He picked up one stone and threw it skillfully at the window. As the stone came in contact with the window, it made a light "ping" sound. One by one, Kenny threw the nearly flawless pebbles at Dawn's window.

Finally Dawn appeared at the window. She had a scowl on her face, not what Kenny was expecting. She abruptly shut the curtains and walked away. When she returned, she had an ivory sketchpad. She opened up to one of its pallid yellow pages and hurriedly scribbled something down with a black sharpie. She held the sketchbook up to the window and gave Kenny a chance to read it. "Go Away" was written across the faded pages in Dawn's round and bold print. Kenny frowned and closed the curtains and walked away again.

With Dawn:

Dawn walked away from the closed window and flopped down on her bed. She knew Kenny was still at her window or at least still outside of her house. She had planned on going shopping but since Kenny was lurking outside her house, she decided it was going to be a lazy day at home. She sat upright and pulled out her laptop from underneath her messy bed. She decided to go onto her chat messenger to look for May. Sadly, Dawn scrolled through the list of people online and saw that May's name wasn't on the list. She sighed and logged off the chat messenger. She gently folded the laptop and placed it underneath her bed once again.

Dawn decided to go and peak out her window and when she saw that Kenny was no longer there, she smirked, which was unusual for her, and grabbed her teal purse and headed downstairs. She cautiously approached her front door and peaked through her peephole. She scanned the street and saw no signs of the chestnut-haired boy. She smiled and happily walked out the door when suddenly…

With Kenny:

Kenny frowned when Dawn closed the curtain after holding up the sign. Kenny had a lot of perseverance but when it came to his best friend, correction his ex-best friend saying go away, he felt absolutely depressed. He sluggishly walked home and opened his front door. He sighed, walked over to his living room, and flopped down on the couch. He held the list of things to try in his hand and groaned. Kenny re-read the list and shook his head.

Kenny's POV

"What was I thinking? Dawn may be a hopeless romantic but these are even insane for her. Geez, that book had some terrible ideas and they all happened to be couple stuff, they weren't even helpful: Drive into the country, find a grassy hill and lie with your partner and look up at the clouds, play the kid's game of looking for shapes in the cloud formations. That one wasn't even helpful to the situation. What the heck was I thinking or doing? I read the next one: Lighting candles of her favorite scent and putting them by her bedside when she wakes up. That last idea had me being a creeper!

What the crap was I thinking? I must have been doing some kind of drug!" Once I said that, I felt some kind of inward pulling. "What the heck? This feels really weird," I exclaimed to no one in particular. I decided to talk to someone about it and grabbed my PokeNav. I selected the contact list and scrolled down until I saw the name of the person I wanted to talk to. I selected the name and a few rings echoed through my house. A blond-haired and orange-eyed boy appeared on the screen of my PokeNav.

"Hiya, Kenny! Long time, no see," my friend smiled while waving.

"Back at you, Barry!" I exclaimed to Barry.

"So, why did you call?"

"Well," I started, "I need to talk to you about something. Got time?"

"Plenty, I just got to Hearthome City!" I went on to explain my situation with Dawn and my stupid list. I happened to mention that I thought I was on drugs or something while writing the list. I finally finished and Barry had a thinking face on: his eyes averted his hand on his chin, and his other hand holding the elbow of the hand one his chin. He finally spoke, "Sounds like a bad situation." I rolled my eyes and he continued goofily smiling, "I know what drug you were on." I made a confused face.

"What? I was joking!"

"Well, even if you were. I think you were on love." The confused face stayed etched on my face. I comprehended the sentence and was still confused. Seeing this, Barry continued to explain, "Love makes people do stupid things; for example, you made that list. So love is a drug. To make it simple, love is like a drug that makes you stupid sometimes." I shook my head in understanding.

"What do you think I should do?"

"Well," he went on to explain his plan for me. I shook my head at some things, blushed at others, and hung my head in shame that Barry was even my friend. "Knowing Dawn, she will only listen to force so this plan should work."

"Thanks, Barry. I'll leave you alone now!"

"The plan should work! If it doesn't because of you, then I'm going to fine you for screwing up my master plan!," Barry joked. I put my PokeNav away and stared out my window and waited for the right opportunity to make my move.

So, I know this chapter was really cheezy and kinda sucky but... I hope it's okay!
