Serena's Pov

Well I have finally decided what I'm going to do. I'm getting a plane ticket to the region Ash is exploring. I want to see him. It tore my heart the way we said goodbye. I'm ready to travel!
*time skip*

I finally made it! Now, I need to find out which town Ash is in. Wait, is that Clemont and Bonnie?!! Then Ash must be with them! Wait, who's that other girl? She looks a lot like me except her hair is brown, and she wears orange. Interesting... "Serena?!!" Ash said. "H-hey Ash... long time no see eh?" I asked. "Yeah.. It-its great to see you Serena..." Ash half smiled, causing me to blush, so I quickly looked away, hoping he didn't see me blush. He didn't say anything, so I turned back around after my blush was gone. He again smiled at me. I smiled back, turning a darker red. I swear I saw him blush to, but he turned away before I could confirm if he was blushing or not. "D-do you wanna maybe c-ca-catch up in the P-Pokémon C-C-Center?" I asked Ash, stuttering. "S-sure..." Ash replied, stuttering.
We caught up for awhile, him talking about his first three gym badges in this region, me talking about me still performing, trying to become Kalos Queen. Then Ash, Clemont, Bonnie, my new friend Spark, and I went inside the Pokémon Center, and ate the soup Clemont made. That's when I went into my dream world, daydreaming about Ash. I still have strong feelings for him, and they've even gotten stronger being here with him. If only he could tell I like- no, love him. He's just way too dense to notice. I just want to say those words to him, Ash Ketchum, I love you... I'm just too scared to tell him. I'm afraid he doesn't even know what love is... I do know my definition of love towards someone: Ash Ketchum. "SERENA!!!" Ash was shaking me, escaping from my thoughts "Huh? Oh, s-sorry..." I said awkwardly. "You ok? " he asked me, a worried expression on his face. "Y-yeah..." I stuttered, making it awkward. He then grabs my right hand, causing me to blush a deep scarlet red. "You know, you can tell me anything, we are friends after all." he said trying to reassure me. "Y-you wouldn't understand!" I said loudly. " Is it because I left Kalos?" he asked, worried. "No. I'm just to afraid to tell you what's bothering me right now!" I snapped. His worried face then went to an upset face. "I-I'm sorry Ash. I didn't mean to snap..." "It-its ok... But seriously, can you please tell me? I know I can help." he told me, making me ready to tell him. "o-ok, this may sound crazy, but I've liked you... I mean I've like liked you since Professor Oak's summer camp, except a lot more since we reunited back in Kalos." I told him, trying not to blush. That didn't work, so I then turned away, but as I did so, he put his hand under my chin turning me back towards him. He was blushing to. As we locked eyes, all I could see was sparks flying, as we locked lips. "I like you to. To be clear I mean I like like you, a lot." he chuckled a little at the last part. His laugh is amazing. We then locked lips again. It only lasted a minute, but it felt like a lifetime to me. After we broke apart, we then hugged each other, both of us blushing madly. We locked hands, and then sat back down.
