"You know I really like your eyes.." She said out of nowhere as they looked at the setting sun from the topmost point in Rota sitting there for over an hour after their training..

"Huh?" He felt her hand grab his face forcing him to look into her grey eyes as he raised an eyebrow in her direction..

"Really?" He asked.. Ash never found anything about himself too charming.. Neither his face, nor his eyes, nor his personality, he just believed himself to be a normal guy with a normal not too handsome not too bad face.. Yet, they fall in love with him for some reason..

"Really... I don't find them rather beautiful.. They are just dead.." He said as her lips curled into a smile.. For some reason Ash reminded her of her own teenage years when she was delusional, depressing and downright idiot..

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Don't you think?" She ran her hand over his cheeks stroking them lightly as she looked at them.. She liked them for some reason, they were beautiful and represented a lot of things she loved about him.. Resilience, dependability, security, and safety.. Ash gave it all to them..

"Maybe? What do you see in them anyway.."

"A lot you won't understand.." She answered slowly pulling her hand away looking at the sun with a gust of wind making everything around them dance with it.. He looked at her beautiful face shining under the setting sun.. Honestly Ash could never say he loved all of them at one point.. It wouldn't be love then, it would be lust.. Love come naturally and slowly..

And he knew who he loved first.. Cynthia ran her hand through her blonde hair placing her hand over her black clips to prevent them from blowing.. It was Cynthia for some reason.. Ash wasn't the breast or thighs kinda guy at first place..

He loved Cynthia's wisdom and how he could talk to her about anything and she won't judge ever.. He was rather into brains and heart of a person kind of guy anyway.. And she reminded him a lot of Sabrina.. Smart, beautiful, independant and scary at same time..

But above all understanding..

"You sure have been staring for a long time.. Something wrong?" A vivid yet familiar voice whispered with the wind..

Cynthia herself never belived she could fall in love.. Maybe after a long time when she would past be her age.. Falling in love was fairytale kinds thing and time taking.. But then again the raging hormones in her body didn't helped too much.. She would completely blame it on her high levels of dopamine and norepinephrine released in her body to make her feel like a girl with her first crush but..

But deep in her heart she knew she formed a connection.. A connection she doubted ever could be broke.. Even if she settled with someone else.. She wondered if this feeling of adoration would ever go away..

She found him similar to her despite being so different and liked him.. She never admitted it officially until when they started living together but diantha had seen it..

She had seen how much she struggled to find Ash.. How desperate she was..

And Ash knew a woman won't cry for you unless she is your mother or deeply in love with you..

Or unless you punched her too hard which wasn't the case here..

And so they connected.. Not to mention he was into older women due to his past experiences much to their relief..
