HELLLOOOOO. This was supposed to come out yesterday but I got tired sorry.  Sorry If anything felt rushed. It was late when I made this. Anyways, Thank you for reading!

"Uhh.... I'm sort of busy right now. How about Later?" I respond.

"Sure. I'll tell you when and where I'll see you." She replies happily.

I then hang up and continue cooking.  

Although I want to spend the rest of the day with Serena, Misty is my friend so I should see her at least once before I leave.  Obviously though, I'll tell Serena before I see her.

6pm

Time flies by as me and Serena hang out for most of the day. We do the normal things a couple would do and we've been doing the same for the past days. Serena has become a lot happier after the time we've been spending together. We haven't really brought up the whole "me leaving" thing. We didn't bring it up since we wanted to forget about it but since I'm leaving soon, so it's basically inevitable. I decide to bring it up at least once.

"Hey Serena, I know we won't be together for long, But promise me we'll stay in touch, kay?" I tell her.

"Yeah obviously. No matter what, I'll always keep in touch. One way or another" She says with a smile.

We talked for a while until suddenly, my phone rings. I read the number and it's the same one as Misty's.

"Who is it?" Serena asks.

"It's an old friend from Kanto. For some reason she's here and she wanted to see me before I left." I tell her.

" Oh. If you want to see her, I totally understand! I trust you enough, Ash." Serena says with a smile.

"Thank you Serena, I love you." I say as I get up from where we were sitting, And I go Outside to take the call.


"Hey Misty, what's up?" I say to Misty.

"Hey Ash. I want to see you. I just wanna talk a bit. Where could we meet up? Misty replies.

"Umm..... Anywhere is fine." I Say.

"Alright, Meet me at the park near the Grocery Store. I'll be waiting." Misty says in a seductive tone.

"O- Okay." I say awkwardly. 

I ignore the way she talked and ended the call. I then say goodbye to Pikachu and Serena as I leave.

20 Minutes later

I finally get to the park after a short walk. I look around but I don't seem to find Misty.

"Ash! " Misty says out of excitement from behind me.

"Misty" I say.

"So Ash, You must be leaving soon, huh? We haven't had a one on one conversation in a while. want to go get food and chat for a bit?" Misty asks.

"Sure" I reply.


we walk over to a seafood restaurant near the park. We get seated and get our food.  As we eat we have a casual conversation until she brings something up. 

"Sooo Ash. Who's your girlfriend?" she asks.

"Her Name is Serena. I've known her since we were young." I tell her.

"Hmm  I remember that name. You thanked her when you became the Alolan Champion. She's your first Girlfriend Isn't she? What a shame, I always hoped I would be your First." Misty says sadly.
