Chapter 20

Ash's POV

"Isn't this nice Red?" She asked as she continued dancing with me "It is but.. why?" I asked her, she chuckled and kept quiet for a bit, but then she said "Since you remind me of him so much, why not dance with you?" She said with a soft giggle "It's stupid.. but right now.. i feel like i'm dancing with My Ash Ketchum" she said with a soft smile, Sylveon stopped playing and she gently let my hands go "Thanks, that made me feel so much better" Serena said as she walked back to the bench we were at, i gulped and walked over to Gary, Max, Paul, Trip and Brock with a flustered face, Max and Gary were smirking at me "S-shut up" I said as they laughed at my embarrassed state "I'm Jealous Red, you get to Dance with Serena Yvonne, the Kalos queen" Gary said teasing me "Did you see Reds face? it was just like his name!" Max laughed, I growled at their teasing and slammed their heads together "i swear, once you guys get close to a girl at all i will never let you hear the end of it" I said, i then heard Brock chuckle at that comment "She just suddenly danced with you, why is that?" Brock asked "I reminded her so much of.. well me" I chuckled "Ash?" He said quietly "Yup" I said as i heard small footsteps behind me "Mr. Red i'm tired.." Angela said, i chuckled and gently Picked her up, she then fell asleep in my arms "It's still so shocking that she looks a lot like you" Brock said "Right?" i asked as Korrina walked over to us "Hey there Red, we should get going now, you should heal your Pokemon for your next battle later "She said "Yeah, sorry, we'll head out now" I said and she nodded and went back to the Kalos Crew, i smiled at Serena but turned away quickly to avoid having eye contact "Let's go Guys" I said to the half unconscious Max and Gary, i chuckled at them as we headed out for the Pokemon center again, once we reached the Pokemon Center, Brock went to help out Nurse Joy immediately helping us heal our Pokemon, after the rest of us headed up to our rooms, the Kalos Crew and Korrina went to their room as the rest of us went to our room, once we opened the door we smelled freshly cooked food, i set Angela down on my Bed as we heard Reggie's voice "Welcome back guys, congrats on your wins" He said as he set out plates "I'll head down and Give this to Brock and Nurse Joy" he said carrying two plates of food "Eat up" he said as he headed downstairs "still Can't believe he is your brother Paul" I said as he slapped my head "What's that supposed to mean Ketchum?" He asked pissed, i chuckled "Nothingggg~" i said and ate my food with an innocent smile, he sighed at me and ate his food "So..Rudy and Misty" Max brought up, i looked over at Gary and i saw his face darken, i looked down at my food then closed my eyes

~FLASHBACK~

"Say Gary, you were famous with the ladies, did you actually like any of your fans?" Brock asked as he closed his book, we all look at Gary curious of is answer as well "not really" He said "Why?" Max asked "I mean they were all pretty" I said as i brushed Eevee's tail "There is a girl on your mind then?" Brock asked "Yeah.." He said sadly smiling "Well who is it?" Max asked, i felt Gary look over at me sadly, he drew a small star on his hand as he shook his head "Nevermind, I don't like anybody" Gary lied, we looked at each other "We can Use Aura Gary, no need to lie" Max said "I mean how bad is she?" Max added "Ash hates her" Gary said, i then realized who it was "Don't let me be the one to hold you back on who and what you want love, who knows, we might be friends again in the future" i said as i walked over to him and Pat his head "After i tell them off, then you can get her" i added, he smiled at me and ruffled my hair "Wait who is it?" Max asked "Misty" Gary said, Brock dropped his book "Misty?" He asked surprised "Yeah.." Gary said as he sat back down "He fell In love with the Boyish water type maniac" Max said "Basically yes" Gary chuckled 

~FLASHBACK END~

"Who would've known Rudy still likes her after all this time" Max said "How do you know about Rudy anyways?" Gary asked Max "Brock told me a few stories" Max said "Who is this Rudy guy anyways?" Paul asked "He's from the Orange islands, he is the Gym leader of Trovita Gym on Trovita Island" I said as i finished my food "Rudy only fell in love with Misty because she saved his little sister from a whirlpool" I said "That Guy really loves his little sister, so of course he'll fall for that Maniac" i added as i tried not to Diss Misty too much "That's all that Guy saw in that woman?" Trip asked "Probably" I said as i stood up, i had to walk past Gary so i pat his back in a reassuring way, i 'felt' him smile as i checked up on Angela, she was still fast asleep, Her Espeon and Vulpix next to her sleeping as well, i chuckled and headed to one of the windows in the Living room, i looked out onto the field, i saw the Cloaked man from the other day again, he looked up at me and we met eyes again, he signed something to me, and my eyes widened at that. The minute i blinked, he was gone, i scoffed and leant against the window "He is alive after all.."
