The Voice (An Amourshipping Story)

Love me, or Yourself Part 1

Today is the 17th of January, I've been in hospital ever since. Today is the day I get out, thankfully I didn't get any serious injuries from the fire. Gary saved me, he too made it out okay, he got out the hospital a week ago, I asked everyone to keep it lowkey about me being 'alive' I can't be bothered with the attention and visits, only Gary, Mom, Scoot, Step Dad and the doctors know I'm alive.

I was soo close to seeing my dad.

"Already to go, sweetie?" My Mom smiled at me.

I nodded.

The 'What Do You Mean' video had to be delayed because of everything that's happened.

I haven't heard anything from Rachel, but I know she's in safe hands.

In the time I've been in here I've been thinking a lot, about everything.

I've realized that I'm only human, I'm not a robot? I have feelings too.

"Yeah, I'm ready" I smiled at her.

"Good to see you on your feet again, Ketchum" The doctor nodded at me on my way out.

I smiled at him.

Once the door opened a cold breeze hit me which for some reason reminded me of 'Cold Water'

On the 19th I sing for Serena's class presentation. It's weird though, she probably thinks I'm dead.

I stepped inside the car and closed it, Scooter got in the seat next to me through the other door while the other two got in the front.

We sat there in silence.

My step dad turned the radio on and obviously it was my newest song.

'Where are you now'

I closed my eyes and listened to it.

It was about Serena, but I'm not singing it at the presentation. I'm singing 'Love yourself'

It's a song that I wrote while in hospital, it's about Serena.

Gary broke the news to me, they're both together. Yeah, I'm hurting but she doesn't love me, I'm doing this as a friend for her.

Like, I don't care? I feel happy for her, but I j-just don't?

Before I knew it, I was at home.

"Come on, time to get you in" Scooter patted me on the head.

"Yeah" I smiled.

I opened the door and made my way to the house.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'You home yet?' I recieved a message from Gary.

'Yeah' I answered.

'On my way' He replied right after I sent it.

I started to type back but before I knew it a knock was at the door.

I didn't want anyone coming to my house, but too late now.

Too late to say sorry?

I walked downstairs and opened the door.

"Hey, man" Gary walked in without my permission.

Nothing new.

"Sup" I replied plainly.

"I have an amazing idea!" He pulled out a light bulb and placed it on his head which caused me to laugh.

"W-What" I continued to laugh.

"We're going to release an album!" He gave me the thumbs up.

Wait a minute? An album?

"An album?" I said in shock.

He nodded.

He made his way upstairs and into my room.

So, I did the same.

"I have written 6 songs, one called 'All in it', another 'I'll show you', 'Company', 'Been you', 'Get used to it', 'The feeling', 'Purpose'

"Purpose?" I questioned him.

"Well, you see. What is your purpose?" He asked me.

I thought to myself for a moment.

"My fans" I said.

"Well, you're going to show your emotions in this album" He smiled at me.

In all honesty, he was right. This is the only true way I can do it. What do you mean can be in there, so can Sorry and Love Yourself!

"Gary! You're a genius! I want to work on a certain song, we'll start working on the other ones soon!" I winked at him.

"Sure, Ashy boy. What's it called?" He asked me.

"It's called Love Yourself" 

He blinked a few times.

"What?"

"Love yourself? What's it about?" He questioned me again.

Should I tell him?

"It's about Serena, she's with Calem now, so I have to move on." I sighed.

He nodded because he knew I was right.

"Let's get to business then!" I held my fist out for a fist bump, which he returned.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Serena's POV)

Ash's death has affected me, each day it get's worse. I hide it from everyone. Calem is now my boyfriend, he has changed for me which I find cute, but the death of Ash haunts me. The burden gets heavier every day, in 2 days times, it's my class presentation. I believe Calem will show up and play the Piano this time since I've noticed he's changed.

Drew is taking care of some little girl that was close to Ash. Her Mom died in the fire along with Ash, but Ash saved her, he would always put others in front of him. 

I don't love Calem, I love Ash. I love you, Ash Ketchum.

I-I think....I think I'm depressed. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Ash's POV - 12 hours later)

"Finished!" Gary smiled at me.

"Finally, play it!" I gave him the thumbs up.

I sat back in my chair and prepared myself for the outcome.

(PLAY THE SONG AT THE TOP^)

(after the song has finished)

"It's perfect" I smiled with my eyes closed.

"It sounds awesome, you sure it's the right song for....tomrrow?" Gary asked me.

"W-Tomorrow!?" I said in fear.

"It is 1am" He laughed.

He meant it's the 18th today, we've just not had our sleep yet.

"Oh" I laughed.

"You can sleep over, if you'd like" I smiled at him.

He looked unsure, but then a smile came onto his face.

"Yeah, okay" He nodded.

I walked over to my bed, he walked over to the single bed that was at the other side of my room. When me and Gary would make songs when I was younger, we would stay up soo late working on them it would be almost impossible for him to go home at the times, so....We bought him a bed.

I got into my bed as he did to his.

"Goodnight man" I yawned.

"Night, Ashyboy!" 

Broooo My fingers hurt, I need to relax. Obviously I wouldn't kill Ash, you spoons!!jk<3 This is the beginning of the end, so I'd say about 5 more chapters? Probably will finish it by the end of next week.

I'm going to fail my Spanish test tomorrow now LOL, goodnight peeps!
