A Special Kind Of Love?

Chapter 6

[Serena POV]

We sat at one of the tables in the restaurant while Ash went in the working area. As I sat there a waiter walked to us. “What would you like to have miss?” He asked, “Oh no, I just came here with my friend. I don't need anything yet. Thank you for asking.” I replied, he smiled. “Very well, please tell us if you decide. I-huh? Pikachu? What are you doing here?” He asked when he noticed Pikachu sitting in my lap.

Pikachu looked up at him and cheered up, “Pikachu pi.” He squealed. “Uhh.. I don't understand you.” The waiter spoke with a bored expression. “Well I came here with Ash. He told Pikachu to stay with me.” I replied, hits eyes widened when I told him this. “Really?! Well uhh, I must go attend other customers. It was nice meeting you.” He said and walked away, leaving me confused. I looked down at Pikachu who was giving me a knowing look. This made me even more confused.

Then I saw Ash, he was taking order at one of the tables. I just say there and watched Ash taking orders and serving them. He was returning from a table when he reached near my table. He noticed me and gave a smile, then he asked, “you didn't order anything?” “No, I didn't really bring money with me.” I replied sheepishly. “What? That's not an excuse. You can order anything you wish. I'll pay.” He said, “I can't do that. I-” “nonsense, I'm coming back after few moments till then you can decide anything from this.” He said as he handed me a menu and walked off.

I read the menu, there were many kinds of dishes. But they were really expensive since this was a very classy restaurant. I felt very uneasy in this situation. After some time I finally selected one sweet dish from the menu.

Just after that Ash came back. “So did you decide anything?” “Uhh, I think I'll go with… err the Soufflé.” I replied hesitantly. “Alright. anything else?” “Umm, no…” “drinks maybe?” He asked, I thought for a moment. “nah, just water will do.” I replied, he more then down. “Alright, one plate Soufflé coming right up.” Then he walked back to kitchen.

---Time skip---

We have arrived at Ash's home. The Soufflé I ate was really amazing I can still feel the taste in my mouth even after so much time. Next time I'll make sure to bring some money with me so that I can enjoy the delicious food without any worries.

Right now we are sitting in his room. He's in the bathroom. I was sitting on his bed petting Pikachu. When he came out we went to the living room to work on our assignment.

“So, finally today will finish your bio data then we can start working on the presentation.” I said as I took my notepad. “okay, so… let's start.” I asked him questions about his personal characteristics and his likes and dislikes. Then we moved into his family and friends, this topic turned out to be really small… Since he had no parents since he was five so he didn't anything about them, and friends? He had none except me.

Then moving onto his trainer info. “now, I'll be needing your Pokedex for this one.” I said, Ash gave me a before look. “Do you really need it, I mean I can recite my info to you.” He said nervously, something told me that he didn't want me to know something important. “No can do, for this we need the info given by the Pokedex only. So give it to me.” I said, he sighed in defeat and gave his Pokedex.

I opened it and listened to whatever it said, I noted the important info on the notepad. Ash sat quiet the whole time. It made me suspicious. But I ignored it and continued my work. After that when it was time to write down the Pokemon names… “Pokemons owned: Pikachu, Snorlax, Sceptile, Infernape, Torterra, Lycanroc, Greninja and Charizard.” The Pokedex spoke, I was stunned. He had such strong Pokemons. Was he embarrassed about this?
