"Thank you!" The honey blonde calling out with her arms behind her back and smiled widely upon her face with bright blushy red cheeks while looking up at the trio who was wishing her luck.

As she neared the bottom of the  escalator, Serena looked up once more, giving her final wave to the trio who made her first journey an unforgettable experience.

She then looked ahead at her and continued her walk to the gates that would lead her to her new exciting journey in the Hoenn region.

The young aspiring and determined performer raised her hands up and pressed them against her burning red cheeks. Her heart couldn't stop pounding, cheekbones wouldn't allow her to suppress such a giant smile.
No matter how much she tried to keep a straight face, her lips would automatically curve back upwards.

But She couldn't believe what she just did. She kissed Ash Ketchum, the boy she's been crushing on for years in her whole life.

So what he didn't kiss her back? She did what she never thought she had the courage to do, and it was making her feel invincible, strong and confident. She felt empowered, and she had a strong feeling that her journey in the Hoenn region was going to start off great.

But Still, the fact that she was being separated from Ash again left a bitter feeling in the pit of her stomach. She hoped that she would see him again soon. And the Lumiose siblings too, of course. Most of all, she wished that Ash would remember the kiss. It was her first kiss ever, and quite a memorable one too. Hopefully, he felt the same way.

"SERENA!" A familiar voice called out to her.

"Huh?" Serena blinked several times before lifting her hands off her cheeks. She brought her arms back down to her sides before turning around to see who was calling out to her.

With widened eyes, Serena stared at the boy who was running her way.
"Ash...?" she questioned quietly with the thump in her chest which was repeating much louder through her system.

"What is it?" she asked as soon as he neared her. "Did I forget something?"

"Yeah," he responded through his jagged breathing.

"What is it?" she asked, feeling somewhat disappointed. She wanted to be sent off with that kiss as his last memory of her.

Now it was going to be replaced with a trivial memory such as him handing her something she must have forgotten to pack.

"Well, I..." Ash trailed off while rubbing his nape. He glanced down at his feet before looking back up at the bewildered honey blonde.

In one swift motion, Ash grabbed her wrist, causing Serena to step forward and fall into his arms. As her body fell onto his chest, Serena looked up at Ash.

She stared up, confused.

Ash lowered his head, finally, pressing his own lips against her lips.

This time, it was Serena whose eyes were left open during the passionate moment. And now, she was leaving with a memory that was an infinity times better than the one before.

Her crush, Ash Ketchum kissed her back.
