Kinks In Kalos: Chapter 1 - What Now?

"Okay, this is where she said..." he told himself, looking around through the crowds of people in the plaza as he stepped off the bus. No sign of her. Just his luck. He gave a sigh as he stuffed his hands in his pockets, noticing the familiar red entrance of Café Soleil and making his way towards it. No harm in sitting at a table and waiting there: he would still be outside, so his friend should see him if she were looking.

Taking a seat at an open table, Ash ran a finger through his messy jet-black hair as he kept an eye on the crowds around him. Since he had long since discarded his trademark hat, his fingers ran through from front to back of his hair. He had finally gotten used to buying his own clothes, since he had finally realized that his mom buying them was kind of embarrassing at his age. Instead of a matching outfit, he now wore a simple pair of grey jeans and black t-shirt with two white lines wrapped around the center of each sleeve. It had been quite a few years since Ash had last been in Lumiose City, and the crowded streets were just as bustling as he remembered everywhere he looked. The trainer was now 21 years old: officially an adult, despite his hesitation to call himself one. He had never really thought about what his future would be like after graduating from the pokemon school in Alola, which was a region where it was always hot and sunny outside. However, after returning home to Kanto following graduation, he discovered something had changed.

He no longer felt the need to go on another journey. Anytime he returned home from one of his journeys, he always heard about a new region and felt the urge to go check it out, but this time that wasn't the case. And shortly after settling in at home again, and some time passed as he simply stayed with his mother and helped out Professor Oak on occasion, he felt much more comfortable with the relaxed lifestyle. But after being home for so long, he started to think about the friends he had made on his journeys and considered making some visits around the regions. Misty and Brock would visit him in Pallet Town every now and then, since they were so close, and just last month he had traveled to Hoenn to visit Max after he got his first pokemon, which luckily was the same time when May had decided to visit home as well. And now after a certain call he had made last week, he decided to make another trip by himself: no pokemon, no overall plans, even letting Pikachu stay with Oak and the rest of his pokemon. He glanced down at his watch, noticing the time was a few minutes past the arranged meeting time. He wouldn't have thought she would be late...

"Heeey! Aaaaash!"

At the sound of the voice calling his name, his head turned towards the source of it. Partly hidden in the crowd was a girl, waving one arm above her head to draw his attention as she squirmed her way through the heavy crowds of the streets of Lumiose. She wore a white short-sleeved blouse with pink and yellow flowers spotted along the sides of her stomach, the bottom of the shirt tied in a knot to one side. He couldn't help but take notice of the familiar blue ribbon which was weaved into the collar and tied at the front, as if a part of the top. It was matched with a seafoam green skirt of similar style to the original one she had worn on their journey through Kalos, along with black knee-high socks and black sneakers with two red bands going around. He also noticed that the girl had grown out her golden-brown hair again, no longer curly but instead straightened and reaching down almost to the middle of her back. His old friend's smile was just as bright as he remembered it, rising from his seat as he watched her beaming smile come towards him in a hurry.

"It's so great to see you again!" the 21 year old girl's excited words were accompanied by a tackling hug, nearly knocking the man back but he managed to hold his ground. A few moments passed as the girl squeezed him tightly, then he prepared to pull away as he expected her to do so as well, but the girl remained attached to him. He glanced away, scratching his cheek as his other hand rubbed the center of her back.

"It's great to see you too, Serena," he replied, beginning to feel nervous until the brunette finally pulled away from him, a happy smile still on her face.

"It's been way too long! Why didn't you ever call and visit sooner?" Ash chuckled as the girl puffed her cheeks and pouted, staring at him expectantly. He had forgotten how childish she could get sometimes over the smallest things.

"Sorry, I've been busy with training. Back home in Kanto, Lance of the Elite Four offered me a chance to battle with him so I've been getting ready for it," Ash explained, sitting back down in his seat.

"The Elite Four? That's amazing, Ash! Congratulations!" Serena sat down in the chair across from him, watching the trainer scratch his cheek with a bashful look.

"Well, let's wait and see how it goes before saying that," he chuckled, the girl giving him an amused look as she giggled to herself.

"Don't be so modest, Ash. With how hard you work, I've never met anyone who deserves a chance like that more than you!" Ash cast a look to the side, embarrassed as he felt his cheeks grow warm. As if it wasn't bad enough that his embarrassment came a lot easier than it used to, but of course this had to happen with her.

Ever since leaving Kalos, Ash felt like something was different about him. It was obvious that parting ways with Greninja was a sad time, seeing as how powerful and close the pair had grown since the day they first met, but he also had to bid farewell to his traveling companions as well. And though he had done it before, that never made it any less difficult, especially for one of his newest - and also oldest - friends in particular. And what made it difficult was something he had experienced a few times before, but never quite like this last time.

With all the girls who had kissed him, none of them had ever gone for the lips before Serena. After all the times that his female friends like May or Dawn went crazy over romance, he had started to learn at least the basics, which of course involved kissing. And the longer his journeys continued, the more he witnessed situations like these, and gradually developed a curiosity himself. He had never expected to find himself thinking of something like this, but ever since the day of parting ways with Serena, he felt it growing stronger by the day.

It may have been his first kiss on his lips, but it's not as if it was bad. It was just...soft. Warm. And not to mention brief. It didn't even dawn on Ash's mind until he had gotten back to Pallet Town that the kiss had occurred right in front of Clemont and Bonnie, who seemed just as surprised as him that it had happened. Though Bonnie also seemed pretty content about it, too...

"Ash? Hey, earth to Ash!" the trainer blinked out of his thoughts, realizing that the brunette was leaning forward onto the table with a concerned look. "Are you okay? You seem like something's bothering you..."

"N...No, I'm fine," he replied, his eyes refusing to meet hers. He wouldn't say that it was bothering him, per se, but his memory of Serena's kiss was bearing heavily on his mind. Especially now that she was right in front of him. After calling her the previous week, it had been at the front of his mind to see her again and finally ask her about it. The more he thought about why she would do that, the more it confused him. And yet now, sitting face-to-face with her, bringing that topic up in conversation felt more difficult than anything.

"Are you sure?" the girl was certainly worried for the trainer by the sound of her voice, not appearing convinced. Ash gave a brief shake of his head.

"Really, it's alright. It's...It can wait a while," Serena gave a curious look, but decided not to press on it. She may have become worried about Ash's quiet behavior, that certainly would not let her forget about her own issues bearing weight on her heart.

Unaware that Ash's thoughts were going through the same cycle, Serena had also wanted to bring up the kiss. For quite a long time. It had been a few years since she finally mustered the courage to show how she feels about him, but through a few visits to him in Kalos and the fact that he never once brought it up, the brunette had come to realize that he didn't get the message. She knew he was dense, but she didn't expect it to be this bad. Most people would take a direct kiss as a very obvious hint, but apparently not Ash. Just her luck to fall in love with the one guy who doesn't understand it.

"Well...If you're sure..." she didn't feel entirely convinced by his dismissal of the subject, but Serena felt more determined to bring up the most important reason she wanted to see him again, besides simply being with him. And she knew the longer she put it off around him, the harder it would become to ask. This didn't stop her from dropping her hands onto her lap, twiddling her thumbs together nervously as she swallowed her breath. "...Actually...If you don't mind, I...do have something I want to talk about-"

"Weeeell, if it isn't my two favorite people~!"

Serena flinched at the voice directly behind her. Ash's eyes peeked up above the brunette's head as his friend quickly turned around, apparently having been startled by the figure behind her. Giving a coy laugh, the figure came around Serena to the side of the table with a wide smile. The newcomer was a girl: and not a stranger to either of the two. She wore black leggings with a pair of jean shorts over them, paired with an azure blue crop top that had short sleeves and hung loosely along the opening above her stomach. Ash suddenly grew nervous as her shirt clearly revealed the fair complexion of her skin, and he oddly felt as if her belly button were staring at him with nothing to cover it. Her hair was almost in the same length and style as it was since their frequent encounters a few years ago, except for the fact that a short ponytail hung from the upper left side of her head by a white ribbon. Her smile appeared just as mischievous as it always did, making Serena immediately start to worry about what was going on in her rival's mind. It also had a similar effect on Ash now, which he didn't realize that the blue-haired girl could easily see as she could see a sense of struggle in his eyes as he looked up at her. Turning herself towards him directly, she put her palms on the table and leaned forward slightly. "It's certainly been a long time, Ash! It's great to see you!"

"Y-Yeah, you too, Miette," he said hesitantly, taking all of his focus to keep his eyes up on hers as she smiled back at him. This was a strange moment for him: thinking back on his travels, he had been around plenty of girls who dressed openly or in clothing with minimal coverage, but he had never felt the urge to really look at them like he was right now. He also didn't realize that Serena noticed this too, puffing her cheeks as she slightly glared at him. It just had to be Miette of all people, and today of all days!

"What are you doing here, Miette?" she asked, looking up at the blunette. To her annoyance, the girl seemed to ignore her as she continued to smile at Ash, batting her eyelashes. Finally, she looked over at her.

"Is that any way to greet an old friend, Serena? I'm just having some fun in the city, like girls do," her playful tone didn't sit right with Serena. She was up to something, for sure. "And after I saw Ash from across the way, of course I would come running over to see you!"

"I-Is that so...?" Ash definitely had questions on that remark, but decided not to say anything. He noticed that Serena's expression seemed a little sour after the girl arrived, and felt a bad vibe coming from her, so he wasn't quite sure what to say right now. He knew women could be dangerous when they weren't in a good mood.

"Of course! It's been so long, after all," Ash could tell that Serena was not impressed as Miette pulled up a chair from another table, taking a seat to the side. Though he didn't notice she seemed a little closer to his side, nor that she quickly cast a glance to Serena as she made another deliberate scoot of the chair towards him. "So how have you been? What have you been up to?"

"Ah...Just staying back home in Kanto, mostly. Keeping up with training, nothing special..." Serena got a sinking feeling in her stomach, eyes narrowing on Ash as she watched his bashful attitude to Miette. His eyes were avoiding her entirely, she was still smiling like he was the only thing that mattered, and her body language seemed to express anything but shame around Ash. She crossed one leg over the other, both elbows on the table and resting her chin in one palm as she looked his way. All Serena could feel was her jealousy begin to boil inside of her.

"So how long are you staying in Lumiose? If you're here for a while, how about today, we go see the sights together?" Serena's fists tightened on her lap, quickly shooting a glare at Miette. Ash blinked, looking at the girl with a genuine look of surprise.

"H-Huh?" Miette's eyes almost shined eagerly as she merely smiled, giving a nod and awaiting his response. Ash cast a quick glance over to Serena, who was certainly not good at hiding her jealousy about the current situation. Ash felt uneasy about what to say: on one hand, he never wanted to be rude and outright refuse anyone, especially not girls because they could get scary if they wanted to be. On the other hand, if he did agree to going around with Miette, he could tell that would only make Serena's current attitude worse. This was a lose-lose situation. Not to mention, why was Serena even getting annoyed about this? He knew that she and Miette had always seen each other as rivals, but it seemed to extend off the stage of performing a lot more than any of Ash and his rivals. Except maybe Paul, but that had been slowly getting better than when it started. "Well...As fun as that sounds, Miette, I'm...not really sure..."

"Aww, please, Ash? Don't tell me you're afraid of a little date~" Serena tightly gripped her skirt, her eyebrow giving a twitch. Oh, that was it.

"Okay, Miette! Sorry to disappoint you, but Ash is going to have to decline!" Miette's eyes looked over to Serena curiously with a knowing smile, watching her quickly rise to her feet. Looks like that worked better than she had expected. "He only just got to Lumiose, and besides, he's already spending the day with me!"

"Oh? So you two are on a date, then?" the brunette felt a blush creep across her cheeks, recognizing the sneaky look in her eyes. She was just messing with her like usual. And like always. Serena was starting to get embarrassed by it, but she cast a quick glance to Ash. His face seemed just as embarrassed as hers, looking at Miette with a flabbergasted expression. Serena opened her mouth to deny her rival's flustering question, but no voice came out as she paused. She began to consider an alternate choice, which was just as - if not more - embarrassing, but she could tell Miette was only messing with her. This is what she wanted.

"...W...So what if we are?"

"H-Huh?!" Ash's eyes shot to Serena, somehow feeling even more shocked. The brunette wore a serious expression, but he and Miette could tell she was fighting to hold down her mortification as her fists trembled at her sides. Why would Serena say that? Ash felt his cheeks grow warmer at the thought: him and Serena on a date.

It's not as if the thought had never occurred to him. There were times in Alola where he had become curious about the concept of dating, and what really made one so great. He had learned through various experiences that women care a lot more about romantic scenarios than men do, and that dating was not a joking matter for them. He didn't fully understand, but they really cared about it for some reason, so maybe this explained why Serena was getting so serious right now. But why exactly?

"Oh? Is that right, Ash?" Ash tensed up as Miette turned towards him with a curious look in her eyes. What was he supposed to say to this? He cast a glance over to Serena, praying that she would be of some help with a follow-up saying that it was a joke or something similar. However, all he saw as she sat down again was a serious look on her face, also noticing her eyes had a hint of...determination? Was he seeing that right? "Well, Ash?"

"...Ah...W-Would that be a bad thing?" he chuckled nervously, hoping that would be okay for an answer. It didn't exactly agree with the idea of being on a date already, but it also didn't outright deny Miette, either. That wouldn't make either of them angry, right?

"Hmm..." he noticed Miette's eyes narrow suspiciously, focusing intently on him. He noticed in the side of his eye Serena's facial expression change slightly, the corner of her lips perking up as her eyes stared at him in clear shock. Though judging by the look Miette was giving, she didn't appear to be convinced. "...So you two are on a date, then? Not just hanging out as friends?"

"U-Until you interrupted!" Miette gave a playful laugh at Serena's glare, leaning closer to Ash and pretending to look afraid of her.

"Aww, I didn't mean any harm. You aren't mad at me, are you, Ash?" the brunette could clearly tell she was trying to act cute to appeal to Ash, but she wasn't sure what effect it would have on him since he never put it together that her kiss meant that she liked him. To her annoyance, she noticed Ash become bashful again.

"Well, I wouldn't say mad, you...didn't know..." his eyes avoided hers as she turned to him with a coy smile, making Serena's cheeks puff out in frustration. If anyone on the street had taken the time to look at them, they would say that the trio appeared to be a cliché love triangle. Miette's fake look of innocence turned into a knowing smile, briefly looking over to Serena before she looked at Ash's arms resting on the table's edge.

"Oh, thank you, Ash! I always knew you were such a great guy!" the man flinched as the girl suddenly put her hand on his, squeezing lightly as she only smiled at him. To his side, he didn't notice Serena's eyebrow starting to twitch more, her eyes staring intently on their joined hands. Miette noticed this as well, making her squeeze his hand more.

"N-Not really," he answered nervously, trying to look away but finding his eyes repeatedly drawn back to the assertive girl. Noticing that she had his attention, she batted her eyelashes every so often, playing innocent much to Serena's increasing annoyance.

"W-Which is why he came to visit me, not you," the brunette stated, grabbing Miette's closer arm and tugging her away from Ash. As her hand came off of Ash's, the trainer scratched his cheek with an expression of awkwardness. This was not how he was expecting this day to go. Miette briefly looked back to read Ash's expression, which showed only confusion at Serena's words, which made her smile more.

"I suppose. But I don't think that means he would be against the idea of a date with me, right, Ash?" another cute and innocent look from Miette made Ash feel a strange tug in his chest, unsure of what that meant. But before now, the only one who had ever made him feel something like this was-

"T-That doesn't even matter!" the brunette's quick protest only added fuel to the fire.

"Oh, come now, it's just a harmless little question. Unless you're afraid of what his answer could be?"

"I-I am not afraid of it! There's...just no point to it, okay? It's not like Ash would...would..."

"What's wrong, Serena? You almost seem annoyed. Almost as if you don't like the possibility of it. Of Ash and I. Going. Out."

"You...He wouldn't...!" her voice started to change into a grumble towards the end, Ash noticing this as well as her eyebrow starting to twitch.

"H-Hey, come on, you two, we're all friends, aren't we? There's no need to fight, it's not like we're on stage or in a battle, so there's no competition here," Ash explained in a desperate attempt to appease the two females. He had always thought they were friends outside of performances, but this situation was starting to make him think otherwise. But that didn't stop him from trying to make it a reality anyway. Serena looked to Ash, her expression softening into one of guilt before her head turned away in the opposite direction. Miette gave Ash a curious look at his statement. Even after a few years, he still had never realized about her advances to make Serena jealous. Nor that despite occurring right in front of him, there was a competition going on. One that he couldn't recognize.

"If you say so..." Miette finally decided to back down, sitting back into her seat and earning a suspicious peek over from Serena. The brunette just always made it too easy for her. "So then, on a serious note, how long are you staying in Lumiose?"

"I'm...not sure, really. I know for probably a few days, at the very least. Maybe a week or two at the most?" Ash watched Miette give a nod of understanding, unaware that Serena's expression shifted to one of disappointment at that statement. "What about you, Miette? Are you really just here to see the sights?"

"Kind of. I just felt like coming to the city, almost like I felt something interesting was going to happen here," she crossed her arms on the table, flashing a smile in Ash's direction. "I guess that turned out true, huh?"

"If you mean running into us, I wouldn't really call this interesting. Long overdue, maybe, since it's been so long," Ash replied, the blunette tilting her head with a happy expression. As the two fell into idle small talk about what they've been doing lately, Serena watched with an increasingly suspicious look, shifting back and forth between the two. Both Ash and Miette caught this, which amused the latter, but the former started to feel guilty from her staring. "But hey, it's not like my life is that interesting. On my way over here, I was a lot more curious about how well Serena's been doing in contests."

"Huh?" the brunette blinked, noticing the two shift their attention towards her. She wasn't expecting to be put on the spot. "I-I...haven't really been busy, I don't think. Since I went home to visit my mom for a while, I haven't really done any contests. I come out for a showcase every now and then, just to get myself out of the house, but other than that..."

"Wait, you stopped contests? Why?" Ash's curiosity grew, as well as Miette's, though the girl decided not to ask anything as she noticed Serena's eyes dart away, starting to slightly shift in her seat.

"No reason, really...just felt like taking a break," Miette's eyes narrowed on the brunette at her change in behavior, then looked over to Ash.

"Well, contests are pretty different from showcases, so I don't blame her. We all need a break sometime," this prompted a surprised look from Serena. The last thing she expected was for Miette to defend her, so that was a pleasant surprise, at least. Ash took a moment before accepting and giving a nod.

"Yeah, that is true," come to think of it, that was the same situation Ash was in. Wanting to go home and take a break from his journeys, and spend some time with his family. He had to accept that, as well as admire it as he looked to Serena again. "Well, I'm glad you took the time to come out and see me while I visit. It's been a while since we last saw each other in Alola, so I've been wanting to do this again."

"O-Oh! R-Really...?" Miette smiled as the brunette blushed, looking away with an embarrassed smile. "Well...I would never pass on a chance to see you, Ash...Of course I would come out..."

"Glad to hear it. I'm always happy to see you, Serena," with a warm smile from the oblivious man, Serena's blush grew worse as she lowered her head in a weak attempt to hide it. Miette rested her chin in an open palm, smiling in amusement as she watched the girl. "So, what do you want to do today? We can do whatever you want."

"M-Me? You're the one who's visiting, so you should decide," the Kalos girl countered, making Ash shake his head. The blunette watched as the two began to go back and forth, insisting that the other decide on what they do, making her quietly sigh to herself. She had never really noticed, but they were a lot more alike than she thought. It took her about a minute before she had decided this was not going to get anywhere.

"Well, if neither of you have any ideas, there are some good movies starting this hour at the movie theater," the pair looked over at Miette curiously. "If we don't argue and head over now, we would have some time to think before picking one."

"That sounds good to me," Ash said, but Serena stared at Miette suspiciously.

"We?" she asked cautiously, Miette giving a smile as she rose to her feet.

"Well, it was my idea. It's not like you would be so jealous of me interrupting one little date, right?" the blunette's knowing look only made the brunette even more suspicious, but she knew she couldn't complain about it in front of Ash. She couldn't let him know that she really was bothered that they were interrupted, nor how much. And clearly Miette knew this too, since she immediately grabbed Ash's arm afterwards, gently tugging him onto his feet. "Come on, Ash!"

"O-Okay, I can walk myself..." he trailed off, getting nervous as the girl wrapped her arms around his, hugging it closely. But before he could make any other objections, the girl suddenly started to pull him away towards the sidewalk, quickly followed by an annoyed Serena. Ash wasn't exactly sure why he was being dragged down the street by a girl, nor why she was clinging to his arm so tightly while another friend of his glared at his current situation from his other side. Evading his notice, Miette was able to cast a quick victorious look over at Serena, which made her bite her lip and start to grumble quietly to herself. Ash did start to notice his old friend's growing annoyance, but was distracted as Miette suddenly hugged his arm tighter, making the back of his hand press against the skin of her stomach. He looked up to the sky as he tried to keep his thoughts in line, but he felt them start to wander as his hand rubbed against her slightly with the movements of their walking. Not only that, but he also felt his elbow pressing against something even softer, growing increasingly worried as he struggled to keep his eyes from checking what it was. He already had his suspicions, but did not want himself getting caught looking.

Arriving at the theater with some time to spare, the trio stood in front of the wall of posters depicting what was playing. Ash's opinion immediately leaned towards the popular action movie on the list, which involved a rookie cop starting out on the force with his comedic partner munchlax, but knew the moment the girls starting talking about the two more romantic flicks that he was not going to be heard. No point in fighting it, especially when the girls outnumbered him.

In the end, they decided on the more sad story of the two, which confused Ash as he continued to be dragged along into the theater. As they approached their intended seats, Serena watched for an opening to squeeze in and seat herself between them, but was worried of what Ash would think of her if she did so. Instead, she watched with a frown as Miette sat down in the seat to Ash's right, the brunette reluctantly taking the seat on Ash's left. At least she was still beside him, she thought. Ash quietly breathed a sigh of relief after sitting down, since Miette had finally released her grip on his arm, hoping that the girl didn't notice. Thankfully she didn't, though she did cast him a brief smile before the lights began to dim, signalling the start of the movie.

The plotline was like any other mushy film to Ash: the two meet in an odd situation, the girl gradually falls in love but denies it, while the man secretly develops his own feelings for the girl. Then the wrench comes down in the form of some difficult disease in the man, causing a rift between the girl and her parents, and she's willing to run off and elope with him to make the rest of his life happy. The whole time he watched the movie, all he could wonder was how girls were so intensely captivated by stories like these. He couldn't understand how a disease could be seen as romantic, or how abandoning your family for someone you just recently met was considered brave and inspiring. He would never abandon his mother, he knew that for sure, nothing was going to change that. So why did girls get so interested with this stuff?

Though, Ash found it difficult to concentrate the moment he felt something touch his leg. He tensed up as it started to move in a small circular motion, starting to register the shape of it in his mind. That was a hand. Definitely a hand. But what really made him nervous was that it was his left leg.

Ash's eyes glanced questioningly over to his left, despite the darkness, towards Serena. He didn't realize how dark it was when the movie had first started, but even with the light coming from the screen, he couldn't even make out the face of his friend beside him. Nor was he able to look down and see the hand that was very clearly a hand rubbing his leg. This...was just his imagination, right? He could never see Serena doing something like this, especially not in a public place of all times. There was no way. But the longer he tried to ignore it, the more brave her hand seemed to get.

His own hands gripped the armrests tightly when the hand suddenly slid its way off of his leg, and more towards the center of his jeans. Okay, now this was starting to get dangerous for him. Surprised by a sudden squeeze on his crotch, clearly not expecting that in the slightest, Ash quickly moved his hand to grab the one touching him but felt it smacked away before it gave another squeeze. What the hell was going on with Serena today? Her earlier annoyance with Miette was something Ash could consider normal, but this? This was definitely something new, and certainly unexpected. He held down a grunt as he felt what he thought was the thumb separate from the rest of the digits, remaining on top as the other digits snuck their way down to the underside of the jeans and rub the lower side. Ash was clearly growing increasingly uncomfortable. And the way he could feel his pants start to tighten in the hand's grasp was not helping in the slightest.

The moment the movie stopped and the lights came back on, Ash breathed a heavy sigh of relief. Finally, it was over. Serena's hand had only done that for a few minutes before it stopped, which made Ash feel relieved as he tried to get back into the movie. But then after about another twenty minutes, she started to rub his crotch some more, always smacking away his hand when he tried to stop her. It wasn't much longer before the movie ended, though Ash somehow got the feeling that if it were any longer, that would not have persuaded her to stop what she was doing.

"Oh, gosh, that was just so sad..." Serena sniffed, wiping a tear from the corner of her eye as they reached the lobby. Ash glanced at her oddly while trying not to let her notice: after what he just had to go through in there, that's what she has to comment on?

"I know, tragic love is truly an art in its own category..." his eyes shifted over to Miette on his other side, keeping his hands firmly in his pockets as he walked with his legs close together. Unfortunately for him, he was still going through the after-effects of the mischievous hand in the theater. And the more he wondered, the more he could not believe that Serena would pull something so risky in public. Or at all.

"Don't you think it was just wonderful, Ash?" the man flinched at the brunette's question, trying to keep his eyes from looking over at her. He could tell she was asking about the movie, but he couldn't keep his thoughts from wandering to what had really happened back there.

"It...It was great, yeah," he finally said, unaware that he made the brunette smile happily. Even if she were referencing what he had been through...at least now he told the truth either way.

"But boy, looks like that movie ran later than I thought," Miette said aloud, looking ahead to the glass doorways, where they could see that the sun was no longer shining. Ash briefly checked his watch, surprised to see that it was nearly 8 PM.

"Oh, crap, you're right. I haven't even gone to get a room at the hotel yet," he said, the two girls looking at him curiously.

"Well, neither have I," Miette added, her eyes looking down to his hand that was now out of his pocket.

"M-Me neither!" Serena exclaimed suddenly, quickly growing embarrassed at her outburst. "Well, since we're here together...We might as well get a shared room...right? It'll be just like old times..."

"That sounds like fun!" Serena immediately felt herself turn sour, quickly casting a look over to Miette at the cheery tone of her voice. Sure enough, the blunette was now wearing a bright smile as she clung to Ash's arm once more, the trainer clearly taken aback by this a second time.

"I wasn't exactly talking about all of us..." the brunette trailed off in hopes that she would get the message. She clearly did, judging by her expression changing to one that was clearly a fake pout.

"Aww, no need to be mean. What's the harm in one more?" she asked in a fake-hurt tone, not swaying Serena in the slightest. If anything, this would somehow turn into Miette messing with her like always, so she might as well stop it before it even starts.

"Well, sorry to say, but they don't really give rooms with three beds," Serena cast a quick look to Ash, who was scratching his cheek with his free hand. Seriously, of all the things to say...!

"But there are conjoined rooms! You can have one room to yourself, and us girls can share the room with two beds!" Miette suggested, Ash giving her a curious look as if he had never heard of that arrangement before. Serena frowned, noticing the look on his face. He was already on her side.

"...Fine. Let's go get a joined room, then," Serena admitted defeat. If she complained about this now, she would only come across as jealous to Ash, and she did not want him seeing her badly. Miette smiled, hugging Ash's arm tighter as they started their way towards one of Lumiose City's hotels. In their luck, they managed to find an available joined room arrangement at the first hotel they tried. Since Ash insisted on paying, he made the reservation for a full week: that was the shortest he could imagine himself staying in Kalos on this visit, and he could always extend it if needed. It wasn't much longer before they got to the room, swiping the card key and entering the room. The first room was simple: one king-sized bed, a nightstand, closet and TV along with a personal bathroom, as well as a second door in the far corner of the room. Figuring this was his room, Ash took a seat on the bed as the girls made their way into the second room. It was of an identical layout as Ash's, but with two beds.

"So, what do you two want to do for a while?" Miette asked, coming back through the doorway and giving Ash an expectant look. Serena followed her through with a yawn.

"I'm actually kinda tired since I came straight here from home, so I dunno..." the brunette yawned again, making Ash smile.

"Yeah, me too, honestly. I took the bus straight from the airport after I landed, and no naps either, so I'm still a bit jetlagged," he stated, leaning back on his elbows. Miette couldn't help but be a little disappointed, hoping that the two would have stayed awake with her. There goes her plans to tease the easily-embarrassed Serena all night. Ash was overcome by a yawn himself, noticing Serena start to rub one of her eyes as she leaned against the inside of the doorway between their rooms. "Go on, Serena, get some sleep."

"...Okay," she mumbled, rubbing her eye some more as she started to turn her body, giving one final look in Ash's direction. "Good night, Ash."

"Good night," the brunette paused before reluctantly disappearing into the other room, leaving Ash and Miette alone. She did feel a little worried about that, but she felt relieved as she heard his voice again after leaving. "Yeah, I think I'm gonna turn in, too. I'll see you in the morning, Miette. Good night."

"Okay...Good night, Ash," as Serena unclipped her bra beneath her shirt and lowered her skirt to the ground, she left the discarded clothes on the floor on the far side of the bed before slipping under the covers as Miette moved into the room. The blunette noticed the lump in the far bed, moving towards the side of the empty bed as she pulled her top up over her head. Taking a breath as it came off, she then took off her shorts and leggings, leaving only her azure panties and seamless, strapless bra of the same color. Slipping underneath the covers, she couldn't help but frown as she looked to the corner of the room at the closed door. She rolled onto her side with one hand between her legs, the other beneath the pillow supporting her head as she looked curiously over at the other bed in the room. No movement or sound. Serena must have already fallen asleep. Miette took a deep breath, closing her eyes and relaxing herself. It wasn't long before she couldn't hear any noise from the other room, either. Then she smiled: it's not as if she were going to fall asleep anytime soon...

Ash groaned as he slowly dragged a hand up to his face, rubbing the sleepy dirt away from his eyes in a drowsy state. He refused to open his eyes at the risk of losing his sleepiness, turning his head and rubbing it against the pillow lazily. Considering there was no light shining on him yet, it must still be sometime in the middle of the night, which he was okay with. That simply meant more time to sleep. Maybe he could get back to that dream he was having before he woke up: it was a particularly fun time with a specific girl in his dream, and they were starting to get into something a little further than his unexpected experience in the theater earlier today. He had actually woken up because of the increasing heat he was feeling just below his waist, kind of worried that it would be a problem, but now he disregarded it. It was a pleasant warmth, anyway, so he didn't complain. Although now that he was awake, he felt as though it wasn't just the dream.

Actually, it felt like it was...getting more intense...

Ash slowly pried one eye open, blinking heavily a few times as he stared up at the ceiling in the darkness. Then his other eye opened. Okay, the warmth was definitely still there. After Serena's risky fun during the movie, it's not like she would...No, no way. She wouldn't go that far. There is no chance that his friend would do something like that. But the moment he glanced down the bed, that thought quickly disappeared from his mind the moment he noticed the large lump in the sheets. And as he noticed it was moving slightly, he finally came to fully acknowledge the intense heat on his lower body.

"S-Seren-!" Ash whispered harshly as he raised the top of the sheets, peering down at his body with a bewildered expression after realizing what was happening. At first, his sight was still a little blurry from his drowsiness, so all he could make out was the shape of a head above his waist with something straight pointing between them. Since he could tell what the latter was, he squinted as he struggled to regain his sight to confirm what - or more specifically, who - he thought the former mystery was. But he wasn't expecting to be wrong. "M...M-Miette?!"

"Hello, Ash~" the blunette smiled as devilishly as always, but Ash couldn't really focus on that this time. What really got his main focus, fueled by increasing astonishment, was the fact that his dick - fully erect and standing tall - was in the girl's hand, holding it against her cheek as she looked up at him.

"W...Wha...Why...?!" Ash's brain could not even form a proper sentence at the sight in front of him. Miette only continued to smile, maintaining eye contact as she turned her nose towards his member and inhaled its musk deeply through her nose. This made Ash cringe, sending a chill up his spine as he felt her following breathe on it. "M-Miette...!"

"Yes?" her tone came out sounding innocent, but clearly devious as she rubbed an open palm along the underside of his shaft making him tremble. Miette's smile grew more mischievous as she watched him grow increasingly uncomfortable thanks to her actions, continuing to tease the glorious male organ in her grasp before opening her lips and quickly taking it into her mouth.

Ash's hips bucked off the bed a little as he felt the instant warmth of her mouth, feeling his tip poke against the back of her mouth before her throat. The girl choked a little but kept her composure: she wasn't expecting him to do some work himself, so that took her by surprise. Since sneaking over from her room into his and hiding in his bed, making sure not to wake him up, she was curious about the size of what he was hiding. Then when she pulled down the waistband of his pants, and it nearly sprung out and poked her in the eye, she felt a warmth start to grow between her legs. She had only crawled in for a curious peek, but after seeing this...No way could she just go back to bed.

"M-Miette, w-wait...!" Ash grunted, feeling the girl push her head down more which meant more warmth on his length. He gripped the edges of the mattress on both sides, squeezing tighter as he felt her tongue slide across his skin before doing a circling motion around the head at the back of her mouth. "W...Why...are you doing...t-this...?"

"Why...? That's easy," she slid his tip out of her lips with a pop, which only seemed to tease Ash further as she smiled up at him with one she had only shown a very select few. In the past few years, Miette had become a very curious girl: of course referring to sex. She started wanting to know about men, and everything there was to know about them and the subject of intercourse. How sex feels, what a real penis is like, how to make a guy feel good, she wanted to learn everything. And so, unbeknownst to anyone in her personal or professional life, she had found a few worthy and willing participants in her eyes who she...persuaded to help her learn. Her first time wasn't very good, which was to be expected with her inexperience, but the next time harbored better results since she at least grasped the basics of what to do. Then the next time she had somehow chosen someone who you might call a 'quick shot', and was too tired afterwards to help finish the deal on her end. Needless to say, that left her with a deep burning desire within her.

"W-What...?" Ash couldn't make any sense of the girl as she ran her tongue up along the underside of his length, placing a quick kiss on the tip as her hand began running up along the skin very slowly.

"I said it's easy...Because it's you," she gave his tip another peck, causing the sex organ to twitch. Ash stared at her in disbelief, unsure what to make of that response before seeing her tongue slip out from between her lips and poking against the bottom of his head. Then she started to drag circles around the outside of the mushroom tip, and that sensation together with the teasing slow drag of her hands up and down his length made the trainer shudder. He was forced to put a hand over his mouth as he struggled to contain a groan, not sure which was more unbelievable: the fact that Miette was doing this to him, or the fact that she was so good at it.

"M...Me? But why-" he quickly bit his lip, barely stifling a grunt as her tongue suddenly found the opening on his tip, poking into it curiously for a brief second before retracting.

"Mmm, that's a cute reaction~" she purred, licking her lips before poking her tongue inside again. Ash pulled his waist down sharply into the mattress, but alas he couldn't go anywhere to escape the girl. "Come on, Ash, why are you resisting? I certainly don't get the impression you're not liking this down here~"

"M-Miette...! Just...why...?" Ash struggled to get the words out, always getting cut off by the sensation of Miette's tongue or hand somehow bringing his brain to a grinding halt. The blunette smiled, resting her chin on his tip and looking up at him again.

"Like I said, big boy, it's because of you."

"W...What do you mean...?"

"Think about the past, Ash. Why do you think I always asked about your love life when we ran into each other? Or if you had someone special to be with in the future? Or why I asked you to be my date to that dance party?"

"I...I thought you were just..."

"Playing around? Maybe at first, but eventually, I realized that I started to get a little more serious about it," Ash tensed up as he watched her head start to grow in size, but felt himself unable to move to do anything about it. Now her head hovered mere inches above his as he could feel the soft skin of her thighs against either side of his hips, the full weight of her petite figure holding him down in place. Her hands were on the pillow on each side of his head, her breath tickling his face as she hovered closer down towards him, stopping the shortest distance before their lips would have made contact. "And there's only one reason I would do that, Ash~"

"I...Y-You...what...?" Ash's mind couldn't process any of this. First she crawled into his bed in the middle of the night, then she pulled out his dick and started sucking it before he even woke up, and now she was saying something that Ash definitely thought he was misunderstanding. Was she...saying that she liked him? As in romantically?

"I know this must seem odd to you, but I promise that I'm telling the truth. So if you want to prove it..." Ash flinched as he felt one of her hands reach down, her fingers wrapping gently around his member and giving it a few playful rubs. "Since you're awake now...Why don't we get to the real fun~?"

"Real...?" it took Ash a few moments to realize what she meant. Oh. The blunette was taken by surprise as he suddenly jolted beneath her, his upper body lurching upward as his hands move to push gently on her arms. "W-Whoa, hold on! Miette, this is not something we should be doing-!"

"Ssssh!" the trainer felt her palm cover his mouth, silencing his voice. Looking into her eyes questioningly, he only noticed her lips start to curl into a sly smile. "Ssssh, you don't want Serena to hear and catch us, do you?"

Ash froze. Oh God, Serena. He had totally forgotten that she was sleeping just in the next room! There was only one wall separating her and...whatever this situation was! He could not let her find them like this, for a multitude of reasons. One, he and Miette were not like this. Two, he knew she would feel betrayed if she found him like this with one of her rivals of all people. Three...It's Miette! Serena could probably make up any excuse at all to be annoyed with Miette about this!

"That's it...Good boy," Miette whispered, slowly raising her palm from his lips.

"Miette, seriously, we can't do this...!" Ash brought his voice down to a whisper, now that he remembered about Serena. The blunette batted her eyelashes innocently.

"And why not?" Ash tried not to let her innocent tone get under his skin, no matter how difficult that was right now.

"Because...Well, just because. For one, I don't do this stuff with just anyone! A-And neither should you!" he told her quietly, the blunette's head cocking slightly to the side. He turned his head and looked to the edge of the bed, starting to feel a sense of guilt. "It's not personal...And I'm flattered, about what you said, but...I wouldn't feel right about this."

"You seemed to feel right during the movie."

"N-No, that was the same, I didn't-" then Ash stopped. A few moments passed as his brain seemed to struggle, feeling the girl move her hand on the pillow to his open chest, starting to rub it slightly in a small circular motion. Just like...

Ash's head slowly turned back, his eyes staring up at the girl in bewilderment. He struggled to find his voice as he stared into her eyes, which seemed to shine innocently but very clearly hid a sense of lust behind them. "...T...The movie...That was...you?"

"It's funny, simply reaching over and starting with the opposite leg seems to do wonders at throwing you off," she whispered seductively, tapping her index finger on his chest and then doing the same with her middle finger, alternating in a walking motion across his chest. "You know, when I first saw you guys at the café, I thought today was the perfect chance to finally get a little closer to you. And after you agreed to going to the movies and letting me tag along, I figured the best way to do that would to give you a little...sneak peek, if you will."

"A sneak...peek of what?" he asked, unable to make any sense of this. So that wasn't Serena in the theater? I mean, in his mind that made so much more sense, but...that meant Miette was the one feeling up his crotch in public?!

"Of this, silly," the blunette grinded her hips up along his, making the trainer grunt as he felt the heat of her own loins start to rub up onto his bare abdomen. Glancing down, he finally noticed that the girl was also barely clothed, only in her underwear and what looked like a bikini top to his eyes. Although, despite the multiple shocking things about tonight, as well as his lack of knowledge on female undergarments, he didn't really want to take the time to question it. The blunette arched an eyebrow, giving a teasing smile as she rubbed herself back down along his pelvis, prompting another quiet groan from him. "I saw how hard you were trying not to stare at me when you first saw me. The way my top doesn't cover much...or how my shorts hug my legs so tightly~"

"S-Stop, Miette, just...please, stop this," he pleaded, making the girl give him a look of slight disappointment. "Look, I...I'm not trying to put you down, after what you said before...but I can't just accept this. I...already..."

"You have feelings for someone else?" Ash gave her a dumbfounded look. "And if you do this, you feel like you would be betraying her...Am I right?"

"...Y...Yeah," he admitted, feeling the blunette not give any kind of movement. Even her hand let go of his dick. For a few moments, the girl seemed to do nothing and say nothing. She just stared at him blankly, blinking every so often. Finally, she sat up straight and brought her bodyweight down on his pelvis, surprising him as she stared down at him silently.

"...You really care about her, huh?" she asked, confusing Ash. There was no way she knew who he meant, right?

"uh...Yeah," he replied, the girl continuing to stare quietly for a few more seconds before taking a deep breath and exhaling.

"...Am I not good enough?"

"W-What?"

"I asked if I'm not good enough. You can be honest, I can take it...You think I'm more like a boy than a girl, right?"

"W-Whoa, where did that come from?"

"Just look at me," Ash flinched, the girl taking one of his hands and pressing it against one of her breasts. He grew increasingly uncomfortable as he felt the softness of it seep against his palm, and couldn't help but catch himself thinking that it didn't quite feel like enough to be considered a big handful. "I know they're not big...but that doesn't mean that I'm clueless when it comes to handling a man~"

"W-What are you doing...?!" Ash watched in panic as the girl body movements followed her suggestive tone, sliding her lower body down along his legs before she pushed them apart, lying herself down on her stomach between them just as she was before he woke up. "Miette, h-hold on a second-!"

"There's nothing wrong with this, Ash. It's not like you're dating the girl you have feelings for, right?" he opened his mouth to protest, but nothing came out. Dammit, she had a point there. "It's not cheating. It's simply you and me, a man and a woman, having some fun~"

"W-Wait a sec-!" his voice shifted into a deep grunt, clenching his teeth as he felt her lips wrap around his sex organ and quickly descend her head onto it. His toes curled as he felt her tongue begin to swirl around in her mouth as she took in more of his length, pulling it down slightly towards her as she breathed in with her nose. As if that wasn't bad enough, Ash forced his head back against the pillow, clenching his teeth harder as he felt her lips suddenly reach the base of his member, along with the gagging slurp as his tip descended into her throat. Miette could tell with one glance up to his face that he was struggling: his dick started to twitch against the inside of her throat, throbbing as she traced her tongue in circles trying to cover as much surface area of his skin as possible. Seeing that he was clearly enjoying it, she decided to tease him instead by switching styles, starting to bob her head up and down his entire shaft.

"What's wrong, Ash? Don't like it~?" her teasing tone earned a curious look from Ash before she continued her motions, gagging slightly each time he reached the back of her throat.

"M-Miette...quiet...!" Ash grunted, gripping the edges of the bed tightly as she began making slurping noises, bobbing her head faster. Ash thought that she didn't seem too concerned about the noise she was making, and was more focused on tasting his meat which she was clearly enjoying. "...S-Serena...will hear...us...!"

"Not if you stopped holding back~"

Ash tensed up, which Miette could definitely tell at her suggestive comment. Ash stared at her in disbelief as she simply smiled up at him, teasingly pecking her lips along the side of his dick without breaking eye contact. Ash felt guilty and questioned himself why this was still happening, but hated himself for already knowing the truth. He was not going to stop this. He wasn't able to stop this: she was clearly in control. With the risk of Serena hearing them from the next room, he had no means of escaping, and deep down he found no intentions of interrupting her. And he certainly could not ignore the throbbing of his dick against her cheek, noticing her drag her tongue teasingly across her upper lip. But at the same time, he couldn't help but feel wrong about this happening - and with Miette, of all people. It's not as though he had found her unattractive, but he had never really thought of her in a sexual way before. But then he couldn't help but find his mind being changed after seeing her outfit earlier today, along with her very open body language.

"It's not like anyone has to know. Serena's sleeping, so this could be our little secret...Just. Between. Us~"

Ash mentally cursed himself - more specifically, his sex drive - for breaking him. That teasing tone and seductive smile was finally too much for him to bear.

"Mmffg-!" Miette gagged as she felt his hands suddenly grab both sides of her head, pulling her down and plunging his dick between her lips as far as it could go. Her eyes shot open, struggling to take a breath in through her nose before his hands began to bob her head on his shaft, building a rhythm. She briefly looked up to him, noticing his eyes closed with a mixed look of focus and strain. He felt a vibrating against his skin as she moaned into the forced blowjob, his lower body giving a shudder as he started to move her head faster. The blunette's eyes closed as her loins grew hotter with his dominance: this was not something she had experienced before. But now she started to wonder if this was going to become an addiction.

With one final buck of his waist, Miette's eyes shot open wide as she felt a sudden gush of hot liquid flowing directly down her throat. She tried to contain her gagging noises, but was taken aback by the unexpected volume which was released with his climax, struggling to gulp repeatedly before it began to overflow back into her mouth. Ash's eyes were clenched shut, his fingers sinking into her hair and gripping tightly as his lower body trembled in ecstasy. His semen continued to spurt into the girl's throat, feeling the girl's hand tapping on his stomach. Opening one eye and noticing a strained look on her face, a wave of guilt washed over him as he released her head.

"W...Wow..." the girl raised her head off of his dick, the tip coming out with a pop followed by one final gush of the thick liquid as she swallowed what remained in her mouth. She used her tongue to clean the inside of her mouth as she hovered a hand in front of her lips, her eyes looking up at his in amazement. "...Th...That was...more than I expected..."

"S...Sorry, I...I was trying not to, but you..." Ash's guilt grew worse as he looked at the girl's face, which seemed genuinely surprised by what he had just done to her. But beyond his expectations, she merely broke into a smile.

"I didn't say that was a bad thing," she said teasingly, her eyes looking down at his dick which now had a stream of semen running down the side from the tip. She brought her lips back down to it, catching the liquid with her tongue before pulling it back into her mouth, giving one final swallow with a smile. Ash stared in bewilderment at her clean-up action, watching as she proceeded to use her tongue to very thoroughly ensure that his entire dick was clean - but not going as far as to start another blowjob. Although a twitch of his dick told her that he might not be against that idea.

"I-I really am sorry..." he turned his head away, feeling ashamed about his perspective on the situation. He had just forced a girl to swallow his load. Oh God, how could he have just done that?! He had never even been with a girl before, and now his first time started with Miette crawling into his bed and ended with him forcing himself on her. He had never expected to be involved in anything sexual anytime soon - much less getting rough, which he now felt terrible about.

"You worry too much, Ash," he blinked in surprise, feeling the girl slide herself up and sit herself on his abdomen like earlier, leaning down with a seductive smile as she tapped his nose. "I can't say I expected you to get so rough with me so quickly, but I'm certainly not complaining~"

"W...What?" the trainer gave her a funny look, which made her giggle quietly.

"That was one of the best times I've ever had, big boy," Ash's eyes narrowed on her in shock at her statement, noticing her lick her lips teasingly as her eyes darted back and forth between his. One of her hand pressed gently against his chest, making him start to re-experience the sense of nervousness from earlier as he watched her other hand graze his skin down in front of her underwear. "And if you ask me, I say that we're not done yet~"

"W...What are you- W-Whoa, wait-!" his voice grew panicky as hand on his pelvis reached around behind her, finding his dick again and giving it a few rubs as her other hand touched the fabric covering her own privates. She pulled his dick towards her own body, the sex organ giving a twitch as he felt it touch the fabric. Miette flashed him a teasing smile as she shifted her butt backwards, pressuring his dick against her panties. He started to feel the heat of her skin as his dick started to get squeezed by her cheeks, wincing as he felt his dick start to regain its sturdy composure from earlier. He began to get distracted by the warm sensation and didn't notice Miette's smile shifted into one of mischief, licking her lips as she lifted her waist up off of his body and position herself above the throbbing rod.

"No sense in stopping now~" she chimed, Ash finally cluing in as he noticed her pull her panties to the side, revealing her slit and thin patch of blue pubic hairs to his eyes. His mind became overrun by a barrage of thoughts of what to say to the girl, ranging from what she was thinking - despite appearing obvious - to begging her to stop since Serena was just in the next room. But his mouth didn't open fast enough to get anything out before she dropped her waist onto his, plunging him inside of her.

Ash's eyes shot open, his head forcing back against the pillow as he felt an even stronger heat begin to course through his body from his loins. As mentioned before, Ash had never been had any sexual experience before this; but that didn't stop him from becoming curious in the past few years. Though he never expected it to be like this. He thought her blowjob earlier was warm: this was like flying towards the sun. Dick first.

"W-Wowww...So...big...~" the blunette panted, feeling her breathing grow shaky as her thighs began to tremble on top of him. His tip definitely reached further than anything she had felt before. She quickly clasped a hand over her mouth to silence a moan that snuck up on her, breathing out heavily as she felt his dick rub against places she had never even found herself. She felt a pressure rapidly building in her stomach that she recognized, astounded that it had already begun seconds after he entered her. That was certainly new.

Her eyes slowly widened as she started to lift her hips off of him, his dick sliding out of her at an almost teasing pace in the man's opinion. He was forced to conceal a deep grunt as she suddenly dropped herself back down on him, unaware that the blunette's action nearly forced her own shock as she climaxed instantly. Her thighs squeezed against the sides of his waist, trembling as her muscles convulsed, her eyes rolling back into her skull with a drunk-happy smile plastered across her face. Oh God, nothing in her memories compared to this.

Currently distracted by the intense waves of pleasure coursing through her body, the girl didn't realize that Ash had noticed her expression, as well as the sudden surge of heat on his privates. He may not have had personal experience with this stuff, but he had a pretty good idea of what that was. And he had always heard that women's orgasms could even be more intense than men's, which meant that she would be pretty out of it right now...

The blunette suddenly shrieked, slapping her hand over her mouth as she felt his dick pull out of her before plunging back in. Regaining control over her eyes, she looked down at the trainer questioningly before noticing a certain sense of lust in his eyes as he smiled. His hands moved to her hips, holding onto her skin carefully as he gave another upward buck of his waist, hearing a muffled squeal be stopped by her palm.

"W-What are you-?" Miette's eyes widened as a sharp shriek escaped her throat, feeling the man thrust inside of her again. Since the girl had removed her hand to try and question his sudden change of heart, Ash swiftly moved his own hand to cover her lips and prevent her shriek from being heard. He held still afterwards, staring into her shocked eyes but didn't concentrate on them. His concentration was instead on his hearing, listening for any sound at all from the other side of the wall towards his feet. But he couldn't hear even the slightest stirring sound. He breathed a sigh of relief: that means Serena must still be asleep. "A-Ahhnff..." the girl's moan he felt against his palm brought Ash back to reality, his eyes focusing curiously on the blunette's facial expression. Much like the moment of her earlier orgasm, he could feel her breathing heavily onto his hand as her eyes stared into his, shining with an intensity of lust that he didn't think possible. Since he was still worried about Serena hearing them, he hadn't begun moving again yet; but Ash could tell that she was beginning to get antsy.

Miette bit her lip, letting out a disappointed whimper against Ash's palm as she couldn't resist her hips from shifting. The trainer beneath her tensed up as he felt the skin of her butt grind back against his thighs, then forward up towards his abdomen, and then repeating that process as she grew more vigorous with each movement. One of her hands dropped onto his stomach, her open palm trailing upward over his chest as her other hand rubbed over her bra. Ash couldn't help but notice as her hand began toying with her breast that a small point was becoming increasingly visible, the same phenomenon happening on the other small mound as well.

"Think you can keep quiet?" he whispered, the girl's eyes looking down at him curiously. She seemed to hesitate for a bit at that suggestion. Her heavy breathing on his hand seemed an indication that his actions might have been a little too brazen; but the way her eyes stared into his with a glimmer of interest told him that his actions were instead almost too effective. It wasn't long before she gave a timid nod, despite how eager her eyes showed her to be, the trainer carefully took his hand off of her mouth. He watched her lick her lips as her fingers began to rub up and down along his chest, occasionally squeezing.

"Finally seeing...it my way...?" the girl panted quietly, lips curling into a smile as the man's expression turned rueful, giving a sheepish scratch of his cheek. "There's no reason to be ashamed, Ash. Like I said, you're a man...I'm a woman...We both have our needs..."

"I know, but...still..."

"You feel like you're betraying her?"

"...Kinda..."

"...That really is just like you, Ash," the trainer's brow furrowed, feeling one of the girl's hands move to his cheek as she smiled down at him. "Look, Ash, I didn't come in here tonight thinking that I was at the front of your thoughts. Heck, I actually wasn't expecting to get this far already."

"You...You what? What were you expecting?" he asked, the girl giving a coy giggle as she moved her hands to either side of his head, holding her head above his as she laid her chest on top of his.

"Honestly? Just a little touch and taste, but for you to sleep right through it. I've heard you're quite the sleeper," she smiled, noticing the funny look he gave her. "If I'm being honest, I only got the courage to do this because of your reaction during the movie today. If you hadn't been so cute in the theater, I don't think I would have been able to really act on these feelings of mine."

"I...Is that so...?" he asked hesitantly, feeling unsure about her statement. A part of him couldn't help but question whether or not she was being truthful when she mentioned having feelings for him, since it was something that he had never imagined the possibility of happening. Not with Miette, nor any girl at all. "...Look, Miette, about...when you say that you have...feelings for me, do you...really mean...?"

"Well, maybe that depends, big boy," she replied, lowering her forehead a little closer towards his. He began to get worried at this, but noticed that she stopped with a few inches still remaining between them.

"O-On what?" he asked cautiously, eyeing her with interest. The girl merely smiled, one of her hands starting to trace a circle on the skin of his chest.

"If I say yes, and ask just for tonight...What are the odds you focus only on me~?"

The suggestive tone of her voice, along with the mischievous smile and eager glimmer of hope in her eyes, became too much for Ash. Living back home, he never truly had any troubles controlling his ego, since he never really had frequent personal encounters with any girls that he would consider a potential intimacy with. But given recent developments, his libido was definitely starting to boil past a point of no return. And it felt to him that her suggestion might have been the final nudge he needed.

Miette bit her lower lip, eagerly staring into his eyes as she felt his hands reach around to take two handfuls of her lower backside. As he gave a few enthusiastic squeezes of her flesh, the girl struggled to hold back a whimper as she felt a heat starting to rise in her loins. But the way he simply smiled and proceeded to rub his hands along her behind made it very difficult to not lose her composure: and Ash could easily see it on her face, which only encouraged him more.

"You love to tease, huh...?" the blunette asked with a smile, being responded with a rougher squeeze as his other hand started grazing around the side of her waist. She glanced down curiously as his fingers left her skin just before reaching her belly button. Her conjectures on what he was up to were quickly answered as she watched his hand swiftly take hold of one of her breasts, earning a gasp with his groping. She was taken by surprise even further as she felt his fingers sneak in beneath the top edge of her bra, pulling it down and suddenly exposing her chest to the chill of the air. She opened her mouth to give another witty remark of his playful nature before rapidly covering her mouth.

Ash watched in amusement as his fingers twisted on her hardened nipple a second time, hearing another muffled squeak behind the girl's hand as he pulled his waist down away from hers. The girl's eyes started to glaze over as he drove himself back inside, biting the inside of one of her fingers as her inner walls began to constrict tighter on the dick currently penetrating her. He began to gradually build a rhythm, watching the blunette's eyes become more blank by the second as her mind struggled to cope with everything he was doing to her.

Ash may not have fully realized it, but the girl was struggling a lot more than he thought. Not to mention more than what she had expected. His sudden dominance in using her mouth earlier had lit a flame in her loins like nothing before: no man, toy, or even herself had ever made her this horny. The feeling of his dick repeatedly pulling out of her before rushing back in, reaching deeper into her than she had ever felt made the girl start to lose grip on reality. Her vision started to go white as she felt a growing pressure within her; but she could barely focus on that as his hands continued to play with a handful of her ass as well as her breast. As he rolled his palm around in circles on her chest, he watched her hand slowly start to fall limp from her mouth, watching her jaw hang open as she tried to keep her panting to a minimum. But given his growing success in performance, that was becoming more difficult by the second.

"O...Oh my...G-God, A...Aaash...!" Miette couldn't help but moan as one hand was forced to hold the bed beside her. Her body was quickly overcome by the many wondrous sensations she was experiencing, the numbing feeling of pleasure starting to make it difficult for her to keep herself up straight. And with Ash's rhythmic thrusting from beneath her, that difficulty only grew. She was forced to bite down on her lip harder than before, his pelvic movements making her start to feel dizzy. Ash could read the girl's struggles like a book, given her mixed facial expression of exhaustion and euphoria.

She bit down even harder, struggling to hold down a delighted squeal as she felt the tip of his dick push her to orgasm. Ash grunted as quietly as he could as he felt her walls tighten on his member like a vise, his facial nerves straining as the increased heat on his genitals made him become much more aware of the growing pressure within his own loins. Watching her eyes roll towards the back of her skull - along with her entire nervous system convulsing uncontrollably - the trainer quickly sat himself up.

Feeling Ash's movements come to a halt, Miette couldn't help but release a dissatisfied grunt and give an objectionable look as she felt his shaft start to slide its way out of her insides, stopping where only the tip was barely left in. With his face coming up to her level, he maintained a short distance between them as he stared into her eyes which were clearly overrun with hormones: come to think of it, this was the first time he had ever really paid close attention to her eyes. They were a golden shade of auburn, much like his, which he had never noticed. Ash could see the obvious disappointment in the girl's eyes as she drew in the corner of her lip, casting a brief occasional glance downward to his own lips.

"Miette..." the trainer hesitated. There was only one reason he could imagine why anyone would be looking at someone else's lips so frequently - let alone a girl - and with what has already transpired so far, his suspicions only seemed more likely. Although despite his hesitation, the blunette could already tell what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, I won't ask you for that much," the trainer's brow furrowed, feeling the girl put her finger against his lips. He looked up with a questioning look but was only given a smile in response. "You've never kissed a girl before, have you, Ash?"

"...That easy to tell?" he asked, the blunette giving a playful giggle.

"And I take it you want to save your first kiss for the girl you have feelings for?" the man took a moment before giving a slow nod, looking bashful. "It's actually adorable how innocent you are, Ash. You worry about a little kiss, even with the position we're in together right now."

"Well...You were a little more...aggressive than I expected," the girl's smile grew, her hands draping around his neck and coming together behind the base of his head. As she watched him turn his head away slightly, his eyes shifting to the side shyly, she couldn't help but feel a small tightening pain in her chest. This was the same Ash from the past whom she had playfully flirted with to annoy her biggest rival, since it was so fun to tease her about her obvious crush. Back then, it had always been such a fun game that she looked forward to each time she ran into them on the road: and now here she was, straddling him like a horse with his dick probing inside of her. But looking at that shy look on his face, she knew for certain that it was no longer just a game anymore. These feelings of desire were real: which made it more regrettable to accept that she had already lost this competition.

"Are you still okay with going forward from here?" she asked, the trainer looking forward again at the girl. The obvious curiosity and hopefulness in her eyes made his dick give a twitch against her inner walls, feeling some of her fingers start to sink into his hair. As he opened his mouth to answer, he stopped when some things came back to his attention. At the front of it all, was a mental image of Serena. He was already ashamed of himself for having gone this far with Miette: though technically it was not cheating, as Miette herself had pointed out, since they weren't dating at the moment. Then there was also the matter of Miette's feelings for him. She had always seemed playful and coy in the past, but Ash couldn't help but feel that she wasn't joking this time around. But could she really like him like that?

"...W...What about when I...y'know..." the blunette cocked her head, giving an amused smile before taking the trainer by surprise. Ash's eyes widened as he felt his face pressed against the bare skin of her breasts, feeling one of her nipples poke against the outside of his cheek. He glanced up curiously, noticing a few bats of her eyelashes as her eyes stared down at him with a returning sense of restrained lust.

"I'm already on the pill, so don't worry about that...So you go ahead and fill me up, 'kay?"

Miette was expecting a look of embarrassment from the man, but was instead forced to stifle a squeal as she felt his dick drive deep inside of her. His hands found both cheeks of her behind, giving a rough squeeze as he lifted them up. The blunette's eyes opened in awe as she felt her waist lifted up off of him by only the handfuls of flesh on her lower backside, struggling not to whimper as she felt his dick sliding out of her once again. His hands stopped raising her, holding her a handful of inches above him in the air. Looking down into his eyes questioningly, she only felt his lips curl into a smile against her skin as she felt his hands give another eager squeeze. This was quickly followed by the feeling of his dick disappearing within her once more, making her shudder: which only got more intense as she felt his teeth on her breast.

Gently pinching the mound of flesh in his mouth, Ash felt her chin drop onto his head before slumping downward. He could feel her mouth hang open against the top of his hair, the feeling of her moan ringing against his head seeming strange to him, but he didn't object. In fact, he only urged it further as he flicked his tongue across the hardened nipple, feeling the girl's hands pressure his head more intensely against her chest. She felt his hands slide their way downward on the cheeks of her ass so that his fingers reached the back underside of her thighs, holding up her bodyweight more efficiently as he lowered his waist against the bed before bucking upwards.

It was a matter of seconds before the blunette's eyes were rolling into the back of her head, feeling the man develop a rhythm of thrusting inside her, each thrust almost seeming to reach deeper than the last. She was surprised that Ash had taken the initiative and chose to move while keeping her still, but she certainly had no complaints with this feeling. Her arms fell limp over his shoulders, every nerve in her body trembling as she was overcome by another orgasm that proved not enough to stop the man's movements. The intensity of his dick repeatedly poking against the depths of her insides - along with the coursing waves of pleasure from her climax - made the girl's mind go blank as Ash bit down harder on her nipple. In his own experience, he was beginning to struggle to continue as he felt his own climax grow closer with each thrust. Attempts to keep the slapping sound of his pelvis against hers to a minimum also proved difficult, as well as the increasingly wet sloshing sounds of his member sliding along the insides of her slit. His teeth released her nipple, the blunette immediately wanting to complain before feeling his lips quickly squeeze together on her opposite breast, along with the feeling of him starting to suck intensely on her skin. His tongue grazed over her nipple again before his teeth clamped down on them, his lips pursing tightly over it as he sucked even more intensely, making the girl's back arch as she tossed her head back with a sharp inward gasp.

It wasn't much longer before she felt his tip poke at the entrance of her womb, his length pulsing against her inner walls as a strong gush of liquid rushed to the deepest reach of her privates. Her eyelids widened more than she could have thought possible as the warmth deep inside her grew stronger by the second, mouth hanging open as she panted heavily into the air, her nails digging roughly into Ash's back. She didn't even have the strength to scream at the ecstasy she was experiencing. All she could do was struggle to breathe, her mind blank as the overwhelming blast of Ash's seed pushing her to climax instantly. Her muscles trembled, the man feeling her nipple somehow grow even more erect between his teeth. With each powerful twitch of his dick, and a new spurt of semen rushing its way into Miette's pussy, he strained as he tried to keep his voice down from grunting loudly at the onrush of pleasure he was experiencing.

Unbeknownst to Ash, the girl on top of him had slowly begun to return to reality, raising her head again. Still having trouble regaining her breath, she glanced down curiously at the man's head against her chest, now feeling his teeth release her nipple. As he pulled his head away, eyes clenched shut with a strained look on his face, she noticed the clearly visible bitemarks on each of her breasts, as well as the two groups of claw marks on the man's bare back. The trainer slowly opened his eyes, feeling the final spurts of his release start to subside, glancing up and meeting eyes with the girl. With the feeling of what had just happened - and now the spreading warmth of his seed starting to run down his shaft inside of her - he had never felt more awkward.

"...S...Sorry..." he apologized, his eyes shifting down to her bare skin in front of his eyes.

"...Don't be," the girl's calm tone confused him, her hand pulling the back of his head between her breasts again. He looked up in confusion, only noticing a smile on the blunette's face as she wrapped her arms around his head. Only this time it was not in an urging force of lust, but instead a gentle embrace. "I told you, big boy, I was prepared for that from the beginning. There's no reason you should apologize for something I was hoping for."

"...I...I don't...get it..." he managed to turn his head in her embrace so that his cheek rested against her bare skin, which made him realize that she was just as excited and exhausted as he was with her rapid heart beat.

"What's not to get?" she asked curiously, the trainer's eyes shifting down nervously.

"...Why would you like me?" Miette blinked in silence. "...There's nothing special about me, really...I'm just like any other guy..."

"...Don't be silly, Ash, there's plenty special about you," the woman's comforting words didn't prove fully effective for Ash as he was still bothered by the whole idea. A girl having feelings for him...What could her reasons be? As he pondered this, he barely noticed the girl part his head from her chest, one hand resting beneath his chin and tilting his head up to look at her. As she looked into his eyes with a smile, her other hand caressed his cheek gently as she brought her lips to his forehead, snapping him from his stupor. "But I guess I'm not the girl you want to hear that from, am I?"

"...Miette..." watching her pull her head away from his, Ash started to feel guilty as he watched her give a brief shake of her head.

"She's a lucky girl, Ash. I hope it works out for you two, really," his brow furrowed, watching in confusion as she slid off of him onto the edge of the bed, quickly bringing her panties over her opening to prevent any of his semen from dripping out. Lowering her feet over the side onto the floor, she pulled up her bra to cover her as it should, casting a smile over her shoulder. "And if you help her experience something like that, then I'm sure she won't be able to get enough of you."

"W-Wha...?" the blunette giggled at his embarrassed reaction, watching him scratch his cheek bashfully and glance away. She shifted her eyes down to his crotch, noticing that a small amount of his jizz had managed to dribble out as she got off of him. Even with everything that had just happened, he still couldn't help but watch in awe as the blunette rose to her feet, turning with her hands on the bed and lowering her head over his waist as her tongue collected all of the remaining sticky liquid into her mouth. Hearing the sounds of her swallowing it down - even if it wasn't much left - made his dick twitch eagerly, prompting a curious look and sly smile from Miette. He looked away, embarrassed since he couldn't help it, making the girl giggle.

"You know, I wouldn't object to more if that's what you wanted," she said teasingly, moving her hands up the side of the bed towards his upper body as she flashed him a sweet smile which made him nervous. Then she poked his nose. "But, I'm not dumb. As fun as it was, I know there's someone else you would have chosen before me...and as much as it does hurt, I know I can't compare to her."

"Miette..." he started, but felt the girl put her finger to his lips. She leaned her head closer towards his, noticing her eyes shifting downward slightly from his eyes repeatedly, which made him start to grow nervous. But that was alleviated as he felt her lips press softly against his cheek. Watching her head pull away again, he saw that she was still smiling with her eyes starting to glisten.

"Just promise me...you'll take care of her, okay? Always."

"...I...Of course I will."

"...Good. Then for your sake...we'll pretend this night never happened," his brow furrowed as the blunette raised her hands from the bed, standing straight and turning away. He watched with a look of confusion as she started towards the doorway to the other room, noticing her lower her head slightly. "No matter how much I don't want to..."

"Huh?" Ash blinked, unable to hear that last part with how quiet her voice had gone. The blunette hesitated, then looked over her shoulder with a shake of her head.

"It's nothing. Good night, Ash," and with a discreet rub of the corner of her eye, Miette disappeared and the door closed, leaving him alone in his room. As everything that had transpired in this room tonight, he couldn't help but get more confused the more he tried to make sense of it. And just when he did make sense of something, another part of it threw it back into disarray.

The trainer let his head fall back against the pillow, his hands fixing his boxers before pulling the bedsheets back up over his body. He turned onto his side, bringing one arm beneath the pillow as he stared ahead blankly, thinking over the various things that Miette had said to him. How was he supposed to make any sense of any of it, this late at night or suddenly? And how would he face Serena after this? It might have been a slight relief to know that she was not the one responsible for his dilemma in the movie theater, but now he was faced with an embarrassing secret with her biggest rival. He shook his head against the pillow, closing his eyes and trying to force the thoughts out of his mind. He wouldn't be able to solve any of this even if he stayed up until morning, so he had to get some sleep. But when he finally felt himself start to drift off into slumber, he still couldn't help but wonder...

What kind of hell was tomorrow going to bring now?
