Chapter 1: Getting to the Hotel

"Max how much longer do we have to walk before we get to the hotel?" May panted before sitting down on one of many large rocks.

Ash smiled and sat beside his girlfriend putting an arm around her. "Yeah Max come on I won't to be in town before the party tomorrow so I can spend some time with May."

"Alright let me try again," Max said before pressing some more buttons on the Pokenav.

"So…" Brock smiled looking over at Ash and May. "How the alone time and being a couple? I know you two haven't been able to be alone together in like years."

Ash, May, Brock, and Max had all went their seperate ways for the holidays except for Ash and May. They both went to their home in Kanto. Ash was Pokemon Master and May was 13 time Top Coordinator and in the Coordinator Hall of Fame. Both of their titles caused them to travel a lot and thankful for them people didn't want to see one without the other. So that meant they would always be together. Yes you heard me right Ash and May live together. With their salary they could afford anything that includes 2 cars and a condo next to the ocean.

"Perfect," May said looking down at her feet a deep blush forming across her face. May was 18 and anyone could tell you she was probably the most beautiful girl in Hoenn, Johto, Kanto, and Sinnoh. She had a black ruffle skirt and a pink shirt with spaghetti strap start and about mid arm high and was long sleeves. She had a pair of black boots that came to her knees. May had her hair down that fell over her shoulders but was curled. Although she was older, she was still the May he had come to love.

"What do you mean by that?" Brock asked, a devious smile coming across his face.

"Not like that Brock…" Ash said thinking at what he was supposed to say without giving Brock the wrong impression.

May looked over at the boy that she had cared for for so many years. He had got taller to where May had to wear boots to even be able to reach his chest. He had a deeper voice and his clothes were different. He usually had a white t-shirt under a black vest with a popped up collar, like her old Hoenn clothes from many years before. He had baggy blue jeans and black and white shoes and hat. The hat itself was black and the poke symbol was white. He still had his wild hair though…but she truly wouldn't want it any other way.

"We didn't do anything Brock I promise," May smiled.

"Alright May at least you could answer me," Brock said looking at a blushing Ash.

"Hey May come here a second I want to show you something," Max called back to her. May shrugged and walked over to her brother.

"Ash when are you going to purpose to May? I thought you were going to do it over the holidays while Max and I weren't around and I looked at her hand…there's no ring," Brock said as they began to walk a little bit.

"I was and then I got worried she would say no and then I would be hurt. Brock I can't live without her," Ash answered, his hat covering his eyes with the bill, releasing the tears that had set into his eyes.

"I know you can't Ash. I know how much you care about that girl. She means the world to you. I know, but if you never take the chance then you will never know what she will say," Brock smiled placing a sympathetic hand on his friend's shoulder.

"You're right Brock; I should try. I mean, the worst thing she can say is no…and how do you know I care about her that much? I never told you that," Ash said looking up at the black eyed breeder.

"I can just tell by the way you look at her and all. And plus I've seen you two kiss a couple times," Brock admitted.

A couple of minutes later the group was half way to the Pokemon Center. Ash and May holding hands and May leaning against him gazing at the scenery surrounding them as they walked, as Ash stared at May thinking of how he was going to pop the question to her. Not too long after that they were all in their rooms. Ash and May shared a room while Brock and Max shared a room.

After Ash and May got into their room they began to unpack their things for the next two days.

"Hey Ashy?" May said after placing all her clothes and suit cases in the closet closer to her side of the room.

"Yeah May what's up?" Ash asked sweetly, sitting down on the bed.

"Do you mind if I take a shower first? My back is killing me and my legs are sore…Man I just need a shower and to relax," May told him, rubbing the back of her neck.

"No, not at all. Go on ahead; I was gonna watch TV for a while anyway," he responded, looking up at his girlfriend.

"Thanks sweetie; you're the best., May smiled as she kissed his cheek genially before grabbing her clothes and walking into the bathroom and turning the shower on.

"Sweetie?" Ash whispered so only he could hear as he put his hand on his cheek taking in the sensation of her genialness. He then went to his back and pulled out a white box with a pink bow on top he opened it up and looked at a rather large diamond ring. In the middle was the biggest diamond shaped as a heart and the other two were rubies and were square. Ash smiled and turned on the TV so May wouldn't think anything was wrong.

15 minutes later….

May walked out of the bathroom. She had on a black night gown with lace at the top and went above her knees (but long enough so when she sat down you wouldn't see anything) her hair was down and out of the previous curls and was straight.

Ash jumped when he saw the door open because he was holding the ring in his hands. He placed it in his pack and closed it up. May smiled and sat on her knees behind him draping her arms over his shoulders. Ash smiled and took her hands in his.

"Hey May…did you have a nice shower?" Ash asked looking over at her head on his shoulder.

"It was ok until the hot water stopped working. Then I felt like I was about to freeze," May answered, then leaned her back on the backboard. "But it did feel really nice to be able to take a hot shower in a bathroom, instead of in a cold river."

"Alright then I'll have to go and take mine later in that case…But first, you want to go and get something to eat?" Ash asked. May looked down at her night attire.

"Oh man I already changed," May said, sadly.

"Here you can borrow my jacket so it will cover your top I'm sure you'll be alright like that and plus I will be there with you and I promise I will never let anything bad happen to you," Ash smiled before pulling her against his body and running his fingers through her silky brown hair.

"Thanks Ash and that would be great. I'll be fine but don't leave without me, alright?" May smiled nuzzling her face into Ash's chest.

Ash laughed and placed his jacket over her shoulders zipping it up in the process. He was right; it covered her whole chest and nearly the whole night attire she had on. Ash put his arm around her and then they walked down the stairs to satisfy the rumbling in their stomachs.

30 minutes later they were heading back up to the room. They both flopped down on the bed when they got back to the room.

"I think I'm going to go get a shower. I'll be back in a couple minutes," Ash announced before getting some clothes and walking into the bathroom just like May had done earlier.

May sat down and pulled down the covers followed by pulling a romance novel out of her pack before sitting on the bed not covering up just yet though.

10 minutes later Ash walked out of the bathroom and into the room placing the clothes he had just previously shed into his suit case. He had on a pair of black pajama pants and no shirt. And he had a towel residing on his wet head. He sat down and looked at May who was still reading her book. He placed his arm around her shoulders, taking off the towel and tossing it over next to the bathroom.

"What are you reading May?" he asked, looking at the front of the book.

"Romeo and Juliet. But I'm done with this chapter." May answered, placing the book on the nightstand next to her.

"I was only in the bathroom 10 minutes." Ash said before laying his head lightly on her chest. (Like on High School Musical 2 with Troy and Gabriella in "You Are the Music in Me")

"I'm a fast reader," May said, beginning to rub on his shoulders causing his composer to shake at her soft touch. "Man you have knots everywhere but I guess that's all the traveling we've been having to do lately and the stress is catching up with you, Ash Ketchum."

"I know I've had a lot happen lately," Ash responded as his thoughts went back to 'the question' for a quick second before thinking about May rubbing his shoulders.

"Well you need to stay calm; I don't need my boyfriend under stress now do I?" May asked playfully.

"No I guess….not," Ash paused for a second as May touched a 'sweet spot' on Ash's shoulders.

May noticed the pause, "Aw, did I hurt you? If I did I will stop..."

"No, no that felt good where did you touch my shoulder?" Ash asked.

"Oh…you mean right here?" May asked placing her hand in the spot again rubbing it tenderly.

"Yeah right there…keep doing that," Ash whispered through deep breaths of dare I say it…pleasure.

May did as she was told and rubbed that for a little while. "Alright May you can stop if you think I'm not tense anymore," Ash said, looking up into her drowsy sapphire eyes.

Ash took her hands in his "You tired?" Then looked over at the clock; 12 midnight.

May nodded, "Yeah I'm going shopping tomorrow so I need to get some rest." She slipped under the covers and cut off the lamp next to her side of the bed. Ash smiled at her then turned off the TV followed by locking the door and shutting all the windows and locking them.

He climbed into bed beside May and turned out his light. May laid her head on his chest and then placing her hand on his stomach and started to run her fingertips across him in a calming manner. Ash blushed however as she did this.

"Hey Ash," May said, breaking the silence that had surrounded the room except for the fan blowing silently next to May's side of the bed.

"Yeah May, something wrong?" Ash asked, concerned.

"No I'm fine but…do you ever think of how long we'll be together?" May asked, sitting up so she could look into his gorgeous auburn eyes.

"Yeah every now and again I will think about that but I always find the answer that I need to hear in my heart," Ash told her passionately, gazing into her striking sapphire eyes and placing his hand on her cheek while caressing it softly

"And what does your heart say?" May asked.

"…Forever…" Ash responded faintly. May smiled but before she could do what she was about to do she had to ask this.

"Ash I want you to give me the 100 truth on this one alright…even though I know you will anyway…Would you give up being Pokemon Master to be with me?" May asked, sighing.

"Aw May of course I would. You're way more important to me than some dumb title. Sure it was my dream when I was younger but now I have all I could ever wish for…friends…family…loyal pokemon…and the most important thing in my life…you," Ash smiled.

Mays sapphire eyes were now being to shimmer with unshed tears until they began to run down her cheeks in steady streams. Ash smiled and took his right pointer finger and began to wipe away the stream that was going down her face.

She smiled warmly as she leaned in and kissed him placing her arms on his cheeks. Ash took a minute to realize what was happening before he began to kiss her back.

He placed his hands on her lower back and rubbing her back softly causing her to sigh. She then felt his tongue slip into her mouth rubbing against her own slightly. Then May, being as weak as she was fell over on her back him on top of her. She wrapped her arms around his neck to pull him in closer.

As time went on Ash left her mouth moving to her neck, leaving a light stream of kisses leading down to where he currently was under her collar bone slightly. May kept her eyes shut until she felt his lips connect with hers again. They stayed this way for at least half an hour, taking in small breathes from their noses. Then there was a loud boom sounding from outside. Even though May was now 18 she was still kind of afraid of thunderstorms and Ash knew this he got off her and laid back down beside her as the lightning, thunder and rain popped and crackled outside. Ash held May close into his chest before he heard her last words before falling into her deep sleep.

"Good night Ash. l love you," she sighed before falling asleep.

Ash smiled and petted her head and kissed her forehead, "G'night May. I love you too," he responded before falling asleep himself.
