The Plan
Last chapter of this story! This may be the longest chapter also! This one is all fluff. BTW sorry I took more than a day to write this. I was acting in a movie which took over 14 hours of recording. ugh. Anyways enough about my excuses! Enjoy!
Chapter 6: Rivalries
(A few days later)
Serena's POV
Everything is going perfect! I told Ash about how I feel and even though he hasn't said that he likes or loves me back, he's given me a lot more attention than he normally has. I don't know his feelings for me but as he always talks about never giving up until it's over, I won't ever give up on him. He's never given up on me and I won't give up on him or his feelings.
"Good morning Serena!" I turn to see the boy I love. I Immediately hugged him.
"Morning." I sighed into him. Ash still hasn't let me kiss him since our first one but he does let me hug him and hold hands with him. He cares about how I feel and will do almost anything he can to make sure I'm always happy.
"Good sleep?" He asked. I've slept in the same tent as him for days now. Why? One because he now lets me and I'd be stupid not to accept it. Two, I love him which kind of adds to the first reason. 3, I don't want anything or anyone hurting Ash so I'm there to make sure he's alright.
"Yes I did." I had my eyes closed with a smile on my face hugging him tighter. "It was so relaxing and peaceful."
"Great!" Ash smiled back. He was- No, Still is dense. It kinda cancelled out what I was trying to do but this is probably so new for Ash... And me. I waited for years to be like this with Ash and I don't need to rush Ash into loving me. This is good enough for now.
"How was yours?" I asked with a playful tone. Ever since I told him I loved him, I became more playful and relaxed! I haven't felt like this since before I met Ash.
"I had a really nice dream so I say it was nice!" He was so innocent.
"Did that dream involve me?" Ash had to have dreamed about me. What else would he dream about?
"Ya it did. You and I were in a Pokemon battle and Braxien tried to use flamethrower but slipped and it hit me. I remember your look. You looked so worried but then I started to and and you joined in afterwards. It was a funny dream." Ash explained. Ash dreamed about me!? My heart fluttered.
"Well hello you two!" I heard a voice come from the forest. We saw a girl who had short blue hair- wait no it's not...
"Hi Miette." Ash greeted. Dang it Ash! She wants to take you from me!
"Miette?" I ask.
"It's great to see you!" Miette eyeballed me motioning to Ash. I blushed hard.
"So Miette what are you doing here?" I ask trying to get her attention off of Ash. She pulled me close and whispered in my ear.
"I heard you make a plan to win Ash over. But since I was passing by, I thought I would have a little 'talk' with Ash." She smirked.
"But my relationship progressed with him!" I whispered back.
"How so?" She didn't believe me. Honestly I wouldn't believe me either if I was her.
"I told him I love him." I whispered back confidently.
"Aaaaand?" I knew she was teasing me.
"Yes I kissed him." I said somewhat embarrassed. Why does she do this?
"Did he say he loves you back?" She knew what my answer was going to be.
"No... But, he did change the way he acts around me. We even sleep in the same tent!" My whisper got so excited I almost screamed. It still excites me that we sleep together!
"So you wouldn't mind if I asked to go on a walk with him... ALONE. Do you?" I hate her teasing
"I do actually. We're in a relationship!" Uh oh. Did I just say that?
"Oh Ash?" Miette was about to capitalize on my choice of words.
"Ya?" Ash asked back.
"Are you and Serena in a relationship?" Miette turned to me with a smirk. I do not want to hear what Ash is about to say.
"Um... I don't know about relationships honestly. How would you know if you're in a relationship?" My heart eased off a little. It wasn't a 'No' so it must be a 'Yes' right?
"Well." Bonnie was listening to the whole thing and walked up. "They always hang around or want to hang around each other. Like when they're eating or walking etc. Then there's caring for each other more than you would a normal friend. Being around each other makes them feel safe and happy. They also admit to everyine that they like or love each other-" Bonnie was interrupted by Miette.
"And they kiss." She did that just to raise the stress level inside my heart.
"Or hug" Bonnie finished.
"Oh. Really?" Ash sounded kind of skeptical.
"Yup!" Bonnie winked at me. She's amazing.
"So are you?" Miette asked again with a teasing voice expecting he'll say no or I don't know. Here it comes.
"Well when you put it that way then I guess we are!" He laughed with his hand behind his neck.
(Later after Miette went along her way still telling Serena that she hasn't given up yet.)
"Ash?"
"Yes?"
"Do you really love me?" I asked him
"What do you mean by that?"
"Like when I told you I loved you and I kissed you. That kind." I felt myself looking down in embarrassment. "Sorry. That was a stupid question."
"No it's a good question." Ash started. "Honestly I still don't know about how I feel or what I'm feeling but if we are in a relationship together and we stay that way, I guess with you I'll find out if I do or maybe I'll get that feeling with you! I'm just unsure right now that's all." He said optimistic as usual.
"So we are in a relationship still. Correct?" I ask.
"Well I don't know." WHAT!? Oh no! He can't be backing out on me now!
"Wait what? But you told Miette that we were." I added.
"Well I'm still not 100% if we are or not."
"Why?" I ask I feel my heart sinking. Tears are about to form.
"You didn't answer the question either so what you say depends if we are or not." He smiled
"YES!" I blurt out as fast as I could.
"Well then we are!" Ash said but then started again. "Two rules."
"Yes anything! What are they!?" I want to get this finalized before anyone can do anything about it.
"One. We aren't going to do anything not PG 13 ok?" Ash gave me not a disbelieving look but a look that told me not to get careless and do something she wasn't supposed to. 'So kisses are fine right?' I think.
"Obviously." I responded to Ash's first rule.
"Great! Oh and two. No random kisses."
"Wait, why?" I'm confused.
"Well if I want to find what love is it can't be just kisses for the sake of kisses. They have to mean something." That actually makes sense. I can't mislead him. Deal. "Is that ok with you?" He asked me. I knew how to answer this.
I kissed his cheek. Not his lips but a quick kiss on the cheek. "Does that answer your question?"
"Ok then. All is settled then?" He looked so confused. It's so cute.
"Yup!" I beamed. I was now officially Ash's girlfriend!
"So... What do we do now?"
"We just live life as usual but we'll just see each other differently." I start. I see his sudden confusion. "In a good way!" I quickly add.
"Oh. ok! Sounds fun!" There he goes again with his density.
I don't care what happens to us but as long as I'm with him, we'll be ok. I will help Ash find his feelings for me. I know he'll love me when he realizes it and I hope someday we'll be even more than just boyfriend and girlfriend. But for now, I am in heaven with him and we will grow together to beat anything the world throws our way.
Good ending? I hope you all enjoyed it! If you all enjoyed this story I may write another! Tell me how I did! Love you all! Thanks for reading!
