Time can't heal every pain (Advanceshipping)

Ohne Titel Teil24

Ash looked at his girlfriend who intended to take a bath, but the only problem was that she wasn't herself at the moment. Having Ash's body, May could see some parts of him that she shouldn't see until they were a few years older. Not taking her serious, Ash thought that she just made a joke and that she was as embarrassed as him.

"That was funny, May. I almost believed that you are serious." Ash chuckled at 'May's joke'.

"That wasn't a joke, Ash. I'll take a bath." May winked several times, because she didn't see the funny aspect of her statement and it wasn't so that she intended to be funny right now.

"You can stop now, May. It was funny, but we should just think about tomorrow." Ash looked to Mew, but the legendary held his paws in front of his mouth to prevent something to come out of his mouth. Perhaps it were chuckles or giggles, however, it seemed that Mew had a reason to be so happy.

"What's so funny?" Ash knew that the legendary always laughed when he saw Ash like that.

"(I think that May's serious, Ash.)"

"That's right, Ash." May acknowledged. "You'll ... uh ... I'll compete in an important match tomorrow and the winner of the match should be someone who took a bath a day prior."

"May, you're aware that boys have a different anatomy than girls, right?" Ash hoped that his girlfriend knew enough about their different bodies.

"Of course, Ash, but I don't want to compete when I smell like a Muk!" May explained.

"If you don't like my body, than I'll be more than happy to take it back, May." Ash suggested, because Manaphy would listen to his mother and Ash wondered why the brunette didn't ask her son once to switch them back.

"There's nothing you have to worry about, Ash. You should trust your girlfriend." May crossed her arms, demanding her 'right' to take a bath.

"Mana ...mana ... dada should trust mama ... mana ..." Manaphy was obsessed with the idea to build new trust between his parents.

"You are too young to know about my problem with May's intention, Manaphy." Ash pulled on his brunette locks, blushing furiously.

"Come on, Ash. We're a couple and we shouldn't just act like friends anymore." May tilted her head. "You can take a bath, too if you want."

Ash's face became redder and redder and he wouldn't even dare to exploit the situation like that.

"I trust you, May, but promise me that you won't tell Dawn anything about this." Ash pleaded, not needing anyone who would tease him for the next years with that situation.

"Thank you Ash. I won't peek ...... so much." May added the last part only as a whisper.

Ash facepalmed, already regretting this decision. In all those years, he didn't have to worry about things like privacy and the fear to took off his clothes. Next to Ash was Pikachu and the rodent-turned-fox could understand his trainer all too well.

Soon, Ash could hear how the water floated into the bathtub and he just put his hands in front of his face. The thought of May that looked at his body was too embarrassing, but she promised him not to peek.

"You really grew up over the years, Ash." May said from the bath, giggling slightly.

"MAY!" Ash shouted, not believing that she actually meant what he was thinking at the moment.

"Oh boy, Ash. I just meant your body height!" May clarified, or rather tried to clarify or even to cover her true intention.

Ash's head dropped onto the bed and he couldn't take this awkwardness anymore.
