Gary's POV
The next morning I wake up on Serena's couch. She is cuddling in my arms. It's 5 in the morning and I realize there's school today. I need to go to my place and get ready for school. I slowly get up abd unwrap my arms from Serena's waist. Thank god her mother is on a business trip. If she wasn't I would've never gotten to sleep next to Serena last night. I wake up Umbreon and tell him we have to go. I write a note to Serena telling her I left.

   Good morning princess, I hope you slept well. I left this morning to get ready for school. See you there, I'll be waiting.
Love, your stupid hedgehog.

I put the note on her coffee table and leave. My house was only a block away, so I jogged there. I go back to my bed to sleep for another hour before going to school.

Serena's POV
I wake up, on the couch.
Shit.. today's school.. wait, wheres that dumb hedgehog?!  I look at the coffee table and see a note. I read it. So he left this morning?  I remembered last night he stayed at my place. What was I thinking?! I obviously wasn't! I let Gary sleep over, on the couch with me! I hope he doesn't get any ideas!! I walk to my room to pick out an outfit and see a hat in the corner. It was the same hat my dad used to wear before he died. I tried to keep it out of sight so I wouldn't have the painful reminder. But it must've been uncovered when I was picking my outfits. I burst into tears. I missed him so much. The fact that I've had my heartbroken so many times didn't help. My dad died trying to save pokemon.. My little sister died because of cancer.. Ash dating Misty.. my mom always leaving for business trips.. I couldn't hold in the tears much longer. So I grabbed the hat, held on to it, and let the tears fall down my face. All the pain.. hurt.. and rejection. I looked in the mirror and suddenly didn't feel so strong anymore. I was damaged, broken.. I don't think love can fix that.
Get yourself together, Serena! I thought to myself. I wiped the tears away and put on jeans, a yellow crop top, my black combat boots, yellow earrings... And my dad's black hat. A reminder that he was strong for me, pokemon, and died as strong as ever.

Hhhhheeeyyy shippers!! I love you, don't cry. I know this chapter was alot.. but you guys are strong. Like Serena's dad. And her little sister. Don't forget that there's still Gary to fix Serena's broken soul. I hope you enjoyed (if I'm can even say that) this chapter.
Love, your stupid hedgehog...
