Serena's POV

We sat next to each other, his hand in mine, the sun had vanished into the horizon, revealing the luminous stars. I rested my head on his shoulder and listened to his heartbeat. It soothed my ears.

The tide covered our legs, but we didn't budge, neither of us wanted the moment to end. Everything was perfect. All the things that worried us before, had escaped. It was just me and him.

I placed my free hand on his shoulder and kissed him on his cheek. It could never get old; the sensational feeling of being able to kiss him, knowing that he was mine.

Ash's POV

I admired her pearly blue eyes, and pulled her in, closer to me. I kissed her warm lips, and hugged her, cherishing the flawless girl, who was finally mine. I never wanted to let her go. We were inseparable, no one could tear us apart.

An alert beeped from Serena's tablet, she sighed and reached over into her bag. She opened up her tablet and looked at the screen, "It's 2 AM!" she said with a panicked tone in her voice, "As much as I love being here, with you, I really think we should both get some sleep,"

"Yeah, suppose it is getting quite late," I chuckled as scratched my head.

I stood up and offered my hand to Serena, she smiled her sweet smile and grabbed my hand as I pulled her up. We kept the grip in our hands and walked down the short path that lead us straight to the pokemon center.

Serena's POV

Ash and I, still holding hands, had just arrived at the pokemon center. Everyone, even the pokemon, was asleep. We crept up the stairs as quietly as we could, trying to wake no one up.

I glanced over at Bonnie and Clemont's room, I could hear the both of them, through the door, snoring loudly.

We came to our separate rooms, opposite each other. I didn't want to leave Ash's side, I wanted to be with him, all night, "Ash...?" I asked him.

Ash's POV

Her face turned a shade of crimson, "I was wondering... if you would like to stay with me, in my room, tonight...?"

My heart skipped a beat. I was absolutely stunned. I still couldn't get my head around that she liked me, or loved me for that matter. And the fact she even wanted me out of all people, to stay with her.

"I wouldn't have it any other way, Serena," I smiled at her as my face flushed a dark fuchsia.

She dragged me into her room, still gripping my hand, and shut the door quietly. "Ash..." she said, as she released her grip on my hand, wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me on the lips, "...I love you,"

"I love you too, more than you could imagine," I replied as I returned the kiss.

The thought of sleeping with Serena made me excited and nervous at the same time. I laid down on the left side of the king sized bed, and Serena laid down on the right. We pulled the covers over us and slowly, but surely, moved closer to each other; until we were tangled

I could feel her warm breaths against my head, I couldn't have imagined of a more perfect moment. Serena was finally mine.

BONNIES POV

I stretched my arms out and yawned, Clemont was already out of bed making breakfast.

I walked down the stairs and I saw him putting food on the table, "Good morning Clemont!"

"Morning Bonnie!" He grinned, "I wanted to thank you, again, for yesterday. It was really nice to spend some quality time with you, just like we used to back in Lumious City,"

I smiled back at him, "Yeah, I enjoyed it too," I glanced at the table full of the food that my brother prepared, "is breakfast ready?"

"Yes it is... you wouldn't mind waking up Ash and Serena for me, it's starting to get late and we're going to be leaving the pokemon center today,"

I suddenly remembered about the plan I made up yesterday, had it worked? There was only one way to find out...! "Yeah! Of course!"

I ran up the stairs and came to the hallway where Serena and Ash's rooms were. I looked at Ash's room, then I looked at Serena's. I didn't know who's room to go to first. I decided there was only one logical way to find out who's room to go to first; it was the best way I knew to choose between things... I took out my finger and pointed at Ash's door, "Ash..." then I pointed it at Serena's "Serena..." I continued to move my finger back and fourth, "Ash... Serena... Ash... Serena... Ash... Serena!" My finger had chose Serena's door!

I gripped on to the cold door knob and opened the door. I looked over to Serena's bed... was that...

"AHHHHH!" I screamed with excitement.

Clemont ran up the stairs, faster than he had ever ran in his whole life, "BONNIE, WHATS WRONG!?" He panicked while picking me up.

I smirked at him, "Look for yourself..." I pointed at Ash and Serena, tangled up in sheets together.

Clemont was struggling for words, all he could get out of his mouth was, "oh...m-m-my!"

Ash and Serena stared at us, blushing like mad!

"Uhm... Bonnie... Why don't you go back downstairs and eat your breakfast, I'm just going to have a... talk... with Ash and Serena,"

I nodded my head and walked out the room; making sure to close the door behind me. I started to walk down the hallway but then I paused... why not eavesdrop conversation? So I rested my ear against the door and listened to the three, talking.

Serena's POV

I watched Clemont pace up and down, he clearly didn't know what to say. To be honest, I didn't either.

I didn't know how he would react to all this, and worst of all, I didn't know how to tell him.

Me and Ash had just woken up, I was still clinging on to him.

"Uhhh... Cl-cle-lemont" we stammered in unison.

I looked at Ash, he was following Clemont's footsteps with his eyes; I could feel the nervous energy that Ash was giving off.

I took a deep breath, "I'm not quite sure how to put this... so I'm just going to say it straight up... Yesterday, me and Ash, went to a picnic on the beach that Bonnie arranged. We sat there, and enjoyed each others company for a while, until... well... we confessed each others feelings to each other!"

Ash looked over at me and smiled, "It was at that point, that I didn't ever want to be apart from her... I loved her, more than I could imagine,"

We turned to each other and he let out his hand; which I gladly took. All the nervous energy had gone. Calm energy surrounded the room.

"I'm really happy that you two have finally faced your fears and opened up your feelings to each other. Bonnie was always telling me that you two would be a perfect couple, I guess she was right!"

The relaxed atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by Bonnie, leaning on the door as it swung open. She fell onto the floor with a loud thud.

"Bonnie?" We all said in unison.
