Late update and sort of a short chapter I know. Haven't been feeling well lately, sorry! Thank you for reading!


My brain completely shut off as soon as I saw her walk out. It's almost as If My whole body just didn't know what to do next. I couldn't even make out a single word.  

"Uh Oh Ash, She caught us. You Should've told her sooner" Misty says.

What Is she talking about? I Should've Told her what? Is She trying to trick her or something?!

 Pikachu tried to show Serena that Misty forced herself on me but Serena ignored it and walked back into her room.

"Looks like she found out our little secret Ashy.  I'm heading back to Kanto so I'll be expecting a call from you, K? Love you." Misty says as she walks away over to the elevator.

I ignore her stupid comment and walk over to Serena's door to tell her she misunderstood. I Was to late though, as Serena had already closed the door.

I tried knocking on it and calling her name in order to get her attention but she kept on ignoring it.  I then tried calling her repeatedly but she ignored my calls too.

I sat outside her room for a bit to see if she would eventually come out and let me explain to her what had happen. Pikachu saw my distress and tried to comfort me but it didn't work too well. It felt pretty late though, so I checked my phone to see the time and I found out it was 10PM.  My Flight is early in the morning so I gave up for now In hopes of her maybe calling back. I then left and walked back to the hotel


30 Minutes Later

I finally got back to the hotel after a long walk. Once I walked in, Gou saw That i wasn't in the best mood so he just greeted me and let me go to sleep.

I was about to lay down until I came up with the idea of Texting her so she could know what had happened. My phone was about to die but I managed to send a message before it ran out of battery.

[Hey Serena. About what happened, It wasn't what it looked like. It's too much to explain through a message so I would Appreciate it if we could meet up again early in the morning or if you could Call me back.]

after a couple of minutes She unexpectedly responded.

[Sorry Ash. I saw what I saw. I don't know if we can still see each other. I even saw you staring at her while we were eating. No doubt you guys were seeing each other Normal Practice and Rehearsal Begins next week either way, I won't be able to see you. Goodbye, Ash.] 

I quickly tried to reply to her but my phone died before I could reply. 

3 Days Later, 9am.

3 days had passed since that incident. I waited patiently for a text back after I sent her another text but she never responed. The flight back was dreadful since I wasn't in a good mood. I've been feeling tired and weak ever since I went back to kalos so that was part of the reason I haven't been happy.

Once We Got back to Kanto, We continued to do work as researchers at the lab. Today though, We were going on break for two days since not much Has been happening that we were needed for So I went back home to see my mom. After talking to her for a while, I Spent the day Laying on the grass of a forest near my house. Pikachu laid there beside me.

As I stared into the sky I began to reminisce of better times. Times when I felt carefree and toured the world making multiple new friends. My Eyes then began to tear up. 

Why'd it all go wrong?

Will this be my last time doing that?

Will I ever fix my relationship with Serena?

Is it My fault?

Can I fix this?

This Isn't my fault is it? I mean, Misty forced herself on me and Serena Won't Believe me. I then continued to rant quietly in my head until I felt my phone continuously vibrate. I had hope it was Serena so I quickly took it out of my pocket and checked to see who it was. 

It Was Misty. 

She was calling me.  

I picked up the call Since I wanted to know why she did that a couple of days ago.

"Hello?" I ask.

"Hey Ash. Want to meet up? I'm missing you so I wanted to see your pretty face again." She tells me.

"Are You Serious? You kissed me for no reason after you knew I had a Girlfriend. What is Wrong with you!?" I Yell in anger.

"Calm down. It was a mistake. I know you and her had a falling out though so I'm guessing you're single now?" She asks me.

" Calm down?! How could I calm down after you made me lose someone so important to me!?" Out of pure anger I threw my phone against a tree. Obviously, It broke on impact.

I then Panicked and tried to recover my phone but it was completely broken. I was only able to buy a phone because I won a league so How Would I Buy another one?

Then, I got an Idea.

If I was only able to afford a phone because of a league, Why don't I compete in another one? I could also be able to get Serena's attention after I win. I haven't trained in a while though So I have to Train endlessly in order to be strong.

I told Pikachu my idea and he seemed to be ready for it. I told professor Cerise that I was going to compete in a league So he would know I wouldn't be helping out for a while. 


I then Ran back home to do some research. Once I arrived I quickly went into My room and turned on my computer. I Searched up what league was going to take place soon. It was the Kalos League.

After planning for a while, I ran To professor oak's Lab to Form a team.

I Chose My Infernape,Sceptile and Krookodile. I then decided I would take my Lycanroc but he's in Alola so I would have to go back to Alola.

I then grabbed a bag full of Snacks, Items and Other necesities, And prepared to train like hell for a couple of days.


 

Might've been a short chapter but atleast it's something. I'll try to update soon but I don't know when that'll be. It'll definitely be within this week though. Thank you for reading!
