"I can't wait to see Daddy again!'' Bonnie squealed as she ran over the platform; ''come on Clemont, don't be such a Slowpoke!"

"It's not my fault we overslept again!" Clemont yelled back as he tried to keep up with his little sister's pace. He tried to catch his breath as he leaned against a pillar of the train platform.

As he looked down he saw a very well known Pikachu, it looked up to him as if it wanted to ask him why he stopped running. A hand firmly landed on his shoulder. "I don't want to put any more pressure on you, but your train is kinda leaving in 5 minutes..." a familiar voice said.

Clemont looked up to the face of his best friend and strongest trainer he has ever met. "Oh man, you can't be serious!" A stressed out Bonnie came running up to them as she impatiently jumped from one leg to the other. "Hurry up brother! We can't miss this train, the next one will leave 3 hours later!''

Clemont stood up straight and adjusted his glasses which had slid down to the tip of his nose. Ash stood in front of him and stretched his hand out towards him; "I guess this is it then, isn't it?"

"Jeez you make it sound like we'll be gone forever. You can visit us any time when you visit Kalos again." The blonde gym leader said as he shook Ash's hand. Pikachu has climbed his way to his trainer's shoulder and happily received a chin scratch as a last goodbye.

A sudden realisation struck the black haired trainer; "But what about Serena? She won't make it in time!" Why did she have to go shopping at a time like this?

"She'll be fine." Clemont calmly said.

"Fine?! If she doesn't show up in 2 minutes she will miss the train!" Ash said panicking.

The gym leader walked up to the entrance of the train and looked over his shoulder as he waved him goodbye; "Bye Ash! Take care! Until we meet again!"

"But-"

"Hey Serena!" Bonnie yelled as she stood in the doorstep of the train's door.

The still confused trainer turned around just in time to see Serena walking towards him. Why is she so calm? She is going to miss her train! "Thank goodness you made it in time! The train is just about to leave!"

Serena couldn't help but laugh about his stressed facial expression. "It's true I have to catch the train that goes to Lumiose City to get home, but I'll wait until the next one."

"But- but what about Clemont and Bonnie?" Ash stuttered in surprise; ''Don't you want to say goodbye to them?"

"I already did that earlier this morning," Serena said as she looked at the window of the train where the blond siblings could be spotted. "They knew I would skip this train."

"Eeh? Why would you skip a train if you can catch this one as well?"

Serena sighed. He really is the densest person on earth. She stepped forward. "Because I have something to tell you..."

"Something worth skipping a train for?"

This was it; the moment she had planned out for months now. She couldn't get cold feet now. It was now or never. "Ash, I –" A loud whistle gave the signal for the train to leave.

"Did you say something Serena? I couldn't hear ya because of the train."

Bonnie was hanging out of the door that was about to close. "She wants to say: I love you!"

Serena jumped up as her cheeks instantly turned red. Why, Bonnie? You kept it quiet for months and now...

Ash looked puzzled at the lemon-haired girl. "Ehhh, you love me Bonnie?" He widely grinned. "I see you as a very close friend too!" he yelled as he waved.
