CHAPTER 1. THE DAWN OF LOVE. By Mr.Dark
Ash slowly walked along the dark road, sadly thinking about when he used to be Gary's friend. He was confused. Gary had always been Ash's best friend. When they were younger they had decided that they would go on their pokemon journey together. But then Gary had suddenly turned mean and spiteful. On his tenth birthday Ash had been so happy. He was finally going on his journey with Gary! Then out of the blue Gary had just walked up to Ash, glared at him and started to yell about what a stupid loser and worthless trainer Ash was. Ash had been hurt and confused. "Gary" Ash had started to say. Gary cut him off before he could get any further. "Shuttup" he had yelled. "Your nothing but a stupid loser. I don't know how I could have ever been friends with you". "But Gary I.........why"? "Just get lost" he had yelled. Then he had shoved Ash away and stormed off. Then Ash had cried. He had just lost his best friend and he didn't even know why. And he still didn't know now. Whenever Gary had said anything to Ash, it had just been about how stupid he was. Ash sighed at the painful memories and a single tear rolled down his cheek.
Gary was driving down the road. His cheerleaders had all left after he had been defeated at the league. Gary was actually kinda glad they had left. They had just gotten annoying. Now he was alone he had time to think properly. And he was. He was thinking about the day when he and Ash had stopped being friends. He had walked up to Ash to set off on his journey, but had got a strange feeling in his heart. Ash had smiled at Gary and Gary had realised that he was in love with Ash. He had panicked and shoved Ash away in his fear. He had been so cruel to Ash and it had hurt more than anything in the world had ever done. Gary looked up at the stars. They sparkled brightly and Gary sighed, remembering how Ash's eyes had sparkled in the same way. He stopped the car and frowned to himself. Opening the car door, he climbed out and sat on the grassy bank at the side of the road. Gary unhooked a pokeball from his belt and threw it. His Arcanine appeared in a blaze of light and bounded up to its master. Gary stroked his pokemons head sadly. "Arcanine, I'm so confused" he said. "Why did I do that to Ash".. "Arc arc arcan" his pokemon replied, seeming to understand his sadness. Gary smiled weakly at his pokemon. "Thanks" he said. "I miss Ash so much, but every time I see him I'm horrible to him, even though I don't mean to be. What am I going to do"? Arcanine whined as it saw tears streaming down it's master's face. For some reason he was very upset about something. Arcanine hated to see it's owner so sad but what could it do if it didn't even know what was wrong? Arcanine raised it's head and howled mournfully at the sky.
As Ash walked down the road thinking, he heard a loud howling sound. He stopped to listen, barely breathing. The howling had a sad note to it. That sounds like Gary's Arcanine, Ash thought to himself. But why is it out of it's pokeball? and why is it howling so sadly? and most importantly, where is it? Ash frowned slightly and set off in the direction the noise was coming from.
Arcanine looked up and began growling as it heard footsteps approaching. Gary stared at it wondering what was wrong. then he looked up and gasped as Ash appeared from round the corner. As Ash started up the hill towards Gary, Arcanine growled viciously and charged at him. Ash barely had time to cry out in shock and terror, as he was tackled by 324 pounds of blazing fur and stripes. Next minute he was pinned down, with a gleaming set of fangs hovering a few inches away from his face. Ash bit his lip to keep from screaming. Then he heard Gary's voice saying " no Arcanine, down".Arcanine backed off of Ash to it's master and sat down, still growling quietly. " No Arcanine, he's my friend". Arcanine's growls subsided and it slowly walked over to Ash and licked his cheek in apology. Ash could hardly believe his ears. Did Gary just say he was Ash's friend? He did! "But I.....Gary I thought you hated me now", Ash said sitting down next to Gary. Gary looked up at Ash, then looked away and sighed. Before he could answer, a cold gust of wind blew by making Ash shiver. Gary noticed and frowned. "You must be freezing" he said. "Here" He held his arm out to Ash. "There's plenty of room". Ash stared at Gary for a few seconds then moved closer, allowing Gary to wrap his arm round his shoulders and hug him closely. Ash blushed slightly as he felt his body pressing against Gary's. He looked up and was stunned to see that Gary had been crying. Gary was first to break the silence. "So.....where's your Pikachu"?he said. "I finally convinced it to go in its pokeball" "What about Brock and Misty" "They both went back to their gyms". Ash was quiet for a while. "Gary" he said, laying his head on Gary's shoulder. "Why did we stop being friends"? The question caught Gary off guard. "I.....I...." Ash looked up expectantly. Gary stared down at Ash. His dark hair was shining in the moonlight. He's beautiful Gary thought to himself. "I.....Ash I......Gary faltered and sighed." Ash I did what I did because........I..........loved you. Ash's eyes grew wide. Gary carried on talking. "I did it because you were always so happy and friendly. I didn't want to ruin that in you so when I started to fall in love with you I pushed you away, thinking it was best". "Oh Gary" Ash murmured. "I'm so sorry Ash" Gary said. "Please forgive me. I'll understand if you hate me now". Ash looked at Gary. "I don't hate you Gary" he said. " I love you too. That's why I was so upset when you changed". Gary's mouth dropped open. " You......I.....you mean". Ash smiled and nodded. Gary grinned widely and gently wrapped his arms round Ash, hugging him. Ash returned the embrace, burying his face in Gary's soft red hair and inhaling. Gary smiled lovingly at Ash. Ash smiled back and Gary slowly began to lean closer to Ash, closing his eyes. Ash's eyes closed as his lips pressed softly against Gary's. As they kissed tenderly, Ash felt Gary's tongue brush lightly across his lips and he opened his mouth in shock. Gary took advantage, slipping his tongue in and brushing it gently against Ash's. Ash froze but soon relaxed and began kissing Gary passionately. They eventually broke the kiss and Ash smiled as he slumped in Gary's arms and a feeling of incredible bliss swept over him. Gary hugged Ash again, then slowly reached down and began to unbutton Ash's jacket. Ash blushed as Gary pulled his jacket of and then lifted his shirt over his head. Gary gently pressed his lips to Ash's shoulder and then to his chest. Ash moaned quietly and Gary, encouraged by this began to move lower. As his lips kissed slowly down Ash's stomach, Ash's moans grew louder. Gary's fingers touched the waistband of Ash's pants and he felt Ash's hands rest on his shoulders and gently try to push him away. Gary looked up at Ash, his face full of worry. Ash smiled nervously. "thank you Gary. I did enjoy it but I don't think I'm ready for that yet". Gary nodded and smiled. "That's o.k." he said. "Your ready when your ready and I wont rush you". Ash smiled at Gary as he put his shirt back on. Gary hugged him again. They both lay down using Ash's jacket as a blanket. "I'm, so glad were friends again" Ash said. Gary smiled as he snuggled closer to Ash. Arcanine lay down next to them, warming them with its body. Gary kissed Ash again and smiled at him. Ash smiled back and soon they both fell asleep in each others arms.
