A Curvy Road - An Amourshipping Fanfiction :)

Chapter 8 - Meet Me

(A/N - I hope you like the pun with the multimedia and the title ;) also i was very disappointed with the last chapter. it didn't feel rushed as much but there was something about it that didn't live up to my personal standards. sorry if there're some grammatical errors in this story as a whole. english isn't my first language but I am taking a masters in english so I do hope to impress. i have a great and deep idea for another fanfiction but rest assured that i won't start it until this story is complete. i really want that completed tag. I have exams but fuck it, making u guys happier is more important. also i got 100 views in like the last 2 days since i released the last chapter. how is that even possible? thanks for 300 reads. <3)

Timeskip -> A week after the concert

Serena's POV

It's been a week now and being the lazy idiot that I am haven't been bothered to follow Brock's advice. It's not the same anymore. I still feel the same way towards him even if it's not mutual but I will always treat him the same but there's a sad truth I have to accept now. Ash doesn't trust me. I even asked him if I could take Pikachu back with me when he went to seventh period and he coldly rejected it. He normally wouldn't hesitate much but this time he didn't hesitate to say no.

Surely it can't have had that much of an effect on him. Was it really my fault? Was he this tempestuous? I felt a warm air current flow above me. It wasn't even soothing and I doubt if it was even real but I knew what it meant. Guilt.

Ash's POV

I said no. I didn't care anymore. It's not that I didn't trust her anymore, I do but I kinda want to be alone these days. Pikachu doesn't count. He's always welcome. He's not a friend, he's a part of me. But it always feels as if a part of me is missing and I can't seem to figure out what it is. And there's a mystic voice in my head that's telling me it's never going to be full...

I do still talk to her. But I left her cold there...

...

That's not right. It wasn't her fault that she's an emotional person. And so I stopped dead in my path, spun around and flusteredly went back to her.

"I'm sorry! I shouldn't be like this! It's not your fault Serena and I know that but it's just something inside me that telling me to do things I do want to!" I exclaimed. I was starting to feel ardent. Not just because I acted that rudely, but because I deserted a friend and that's a crime that you can never be forgiven for. Or so I thought.

"Ash.. I will always forgive you. Even if you didn't do anything wrong..." she said as he eyes filled with water. She touched my cheek and smoothly draped her hand down it. I wiped off her tears with a gentle jerk of my hand. I could feel her solitariness just by the touch of her tears. Her warmth and coziness bewildered me. I couldn't have ever asked for a better friend.

"Crying doesn't suit you, Serena." I said as the bell rung. I took a few steps back towards my class.

"Neither you, Ash" she winked. I felt confused as I waved goodbye but then felt astonished as the warmth of my hand from her touch was breached by a cold tear that had floated down onto my hand. I stared at it for a few seconds really trying to absorb what it meant.

It meant too much...

Timeskip -> Back Home

Serena's POV

I slammed the door shut when I got back home and rushed towards my desk. I had so much homework to do I wondered if I would be able to finish it by tonight. I had an individual project to submit tomorrow but of course I had forgotten about it and left it till the last day. Great. Guess this was gonna be a long day. I finished today's homework first and then started on the project. It was a long project to be honest. I had to make a model of a triangle with some materials and label all the trigonometric functions. I'm still waiting for the day the shopkeeper says the total is 189 + 5x^2 = 9. (A/N -> x = 6i{root(-36)} btw for those of you who were curious)
