It's Called Love, Right?

Chapter 27 - Fun

"KYAAAA!"

A scream echoed the bath room as Dawn fell into the bathtub, splashing water all over the place.

Pikachu let out what sounded like a snicker and Ash turned around, trying his best not to laugh.

"Helping me would be nice," Dawn rolled her eyes as she stood up, completely drenched. Ash just shrugged, his back still facing her.

"It was your fault for slipping on soap."

Dawn was about to say something but stopped. The room suddenly grew silent, the only audible sound was them breathing.

"What's wr--"

Before Ash could turn around, a towel slammed into his face, making him take a few steps back.

"Don't you dare turn around," Dawn said to him. Not knowing what she was thinking, Ash just sat on a chair, placed his hand behind his head and yawned.

"Aye sir."

(A/N: anybody know the reference...?)

After glancing at him once more, Dawn quickly looked down at herself to see if any parts of her clothing was see through. The last thing she would want was for boy to see what they're not suppose to, even if they're as dense as the deep blue sea.

Ash was a good example.

Lucky for her, nothing she wore looked transparent except for her sleeves, which wasn't a big deal. Letting out an relieved sigh, she turned over to Ash, who was still sitting on the chair, his back facing her.

"You can turn around now."

She waited a few seconds for him to stand up but he never did. Raising an eyebrow, she walked over to Ash and poked her head over his shoulder to see his face. After doing so, Dawn simply shook her head.

The jet-haired boy was asleep. Again.

She didn't know why she said 'again'. But from what she had taken note of, Ash was always asleep at the strangest times. She sighed.

As expected from him.

"HELLOOOO!" a familiar voice echoed into the bath room. Dawn jolted up in surprise and Ash opened his eyes groggily before turning around.

"Iris?" Dawn looked at the violet hair girl that stood in front of the doorway, "What brings you here?"

Iris gave the two a cheeky grin as she held up Pikachu, who purred in her arms.

"Pikachu!" Dawn exclaimed, "Don't wonder off by yourself!"

"I found this little guy wondering around the hallways," she said as she caressed the yellow feline. She handed it to Dawn, "Figured it might belonged to you."

"Ah I see," Dawn nodded thoughtfully.

"By the way," Iris looked at Ash, then Dawn, then Pikachu, "Whatcha guys doing?"

Dawn tilted her head, "Didn't Ash ask you to help?"

"Help with what?"
