Chapter 24

"Ash is completely dominating." Serena stated the obvious as she sat down next to the coach.

They had made it to the coach's office and after a short introduction the coach asked Ash if he would be willing to play a scrimmage with the rest of Kanto University. Of course Ash was eager to accept and it didn't take more than a few minutes for him to change into some shorts and a t-shirt that the school provided.

The coach didn't give a verbal reply as he wrote something down on the sheet of paper attached to his clipboard.

"Red!" Ash shouted gaining Serena's attention.

She watched as Ash called his former captain's name as if he were intending to pass him the ball, but surprisingly after a unexpected ball fake Ash preformed a behind the back pass to a wide open teammate who obviously hadn't been expecting the ball at all.

"Woah." The young man muttered as he barely manage to catch the pass. Despite the fact that it was a behind the back pass it still had a lot of heat on it.

The coach watched the play with raised eyebrows also surprised by the pass. He had seen the open man, but he hadn't believed that Ash saw him as well. "Isn't Ash right handed?" He directed his question towards Serena.

Serena smiled. "Ash is ambidextrous, most people don't know that though and assume that he is right handed."

The coach shook his head a bit clearly amazed by the revelation. He wasn't sure he had ever seen a player with as much potential as Ash. The high school senior was playing with the bench squad and they were actually winning against his starters. It was unbelievable. The game just came so naturally to the boy.

He was clearly born to play basketball.

With May

"May..I said are you willing to go through with this?" James repeated after his question went unanswered the first time.

The brown haired girl still didn't reply however as she continued to stare at the photo that James was showing her. She didn't know how to feel. The reasonable side of her brain told her that there is probably more to the story than what James was telling her, but the insecure side of her brain was telling her that Ash had moved on that quickly.

"May, I'm sure Ash has a good reason for this." Brendan assured as he looked at the girl who he had been helping for the last few months.

Dawn quickly caught on and agreed. "That's right May! Ash definitely loves you, he wouldn't go to Serena just because you guys broke up."

As the words came out of Dawn's mouth May came to a realization. She couldn't blame Ash at all. She was the one who had broken up with him. She had stepped on his heart. She had lied to him when she should have just told the truth from the very beginning.

But even though she knew she had started it...

Even though she knew she should try and learn more about the photo before jumping to conclusions.

The anger that was building inside her was quickly matching the sadness.

"I have to think about it.." May finally answered causing both of her friend's eyes to widen in shock.
