❝ Pure hearts; Sinful desires; Endless love ❞
"Ain't it scary? How you can have everything you wanted only to lose it next second?"
She asked the picture holding it in her hand.. Her fingers brushing over the portrait taken years ago in the memory...
"Hate me, never forgive me but please.. Forget me..." ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ × ━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"I love you..."
The word rung into her mind like a gong being striked violently over and over.. Ash Ketchum loved her.. She didn't knew what to say.. How would she? She found herself at loss of words... It wasn't the first time someone confessed to her... But alas.. It was the first time someone she loved more than herself confessed to her... I love you... How simple are these three words but how complex too... Just what is love...
As their lips connected once again against the hallway leading to her bedroom, she remembered a quote from the book she was reading... 'Love is when one person knows all of your secrets... your deepest, darkest, most dreadful secrets of which no one else in the world knows... and yet in the end, that one person does not think any less of you; even if the rest of the world does...'
A lot of girls loved Ash..Who wouldn't?He was son of owner of a multimillionare company, a rising champion, a smart and loving guy but it all meant nothing to her... For her, he was just her best friend.. In a tad of footstep they reached her room...
It was a little... No amount of denial could remove it.. No amount of he is my student, he is a kid, I can't love him could deny it. Love was there in her heart for him...
They did have thise moments too, hundreds of them... His hand pulled her closer to him.. A sharp lightning was accompanied with a thunder making her heart beat miles per hour.. She found herself sandwiched between the door and him who tried to open it... She knew what he was trying to convey with these kisses.. He was trying to convey how much she meant to him and she didn't pushed him away too...
Ash knew everything about her... About her parents, her debts her favourite ice cream flavours, her first draft of a book she hid away from world in embarrassment, her favourite show... There weren't a lot of things he didn't knew about her...
"Ash..."
"I love you..." For the nth time he said the same thing to her with the same tone filled with genuineness... He couldn't find any other way to bring out what he wanted to say.. She held his face placing her forehead onto his closing her eyes trying to understand the moment... He held her hand over his cheek... None of them were good with words... But maybe they could understand their feelings through these small acts..
He didn't wanted to hear her shitty reasoning again... He loved her... That was the end and beginning of everything for him... For the first time in his life, someone made him feel like he was worthy enough to live... That he could love someone too... And for that, he gave his everything to stand as her equal...
Alas, fate is a bitch... He felt grave pain not more than 5 time in relation to love... First when he moved away from Serena without giving her a explanation... Second when he saw tears in Astrid's eyes, third was when he found Cynthia left him, fourth was when he found she was his teacher.. And last was tonight... When he saw her cry because of him...
