Man! I am in love with this two character's relationship. They seriously look cute together.

So I hope u guys will enjoy the story. Do send reviews.

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon.

The school bell rang. It was a new session for this year's pallet high, perhaps the best high school one can ever get in the Kanto region. With huge successes in academic field and athletic field, as more than 70 percent students in the school get above 90 percent marks in exams and being the first ranked athletic school in the world, it is a kind of place one would love to join. It had all the facilities with star rated equipments and tempted the students to join here. Perhaps it was a dreamland for all except a short honey blonde girl, who feared to be devoid of friends to read here from all the way from the kalos region. As everyone approached for their first class, she hesitantly glanced at her routine to find that she was having a biology class in room 115. She woke up late today and had to hurry for school, being forced by her mom.

"Hope you'll have nice first day serena.", she said to her as she packed her lunch.

Serena knew she was going to have one hell of a day now with no one to talk to and no one to move with. She also had to leave her only Pokémon, fennekin in her house because they were not allowed here. How badly she missed her!

'well here it goes!' she thought and she proceeded towards a vacant seat. No one gave her company as she had her gaze fixed at the desk to avoid eye contact with other students. She was of the opinion that others might feel that she is not of their kind and end up getting insulted. She was too shy to get her introduced to anyone when suddenly some raven haired boy sat in her bench and asked "would you mind me sitting here with you for this day?Actually I am all new to this and I don't have friends . so I guess I saw this place vacant and felt like occupying it if it's okay with you?"

She was initially distracted by him and she retained her composure and squeaked "uh….yeah it's fine."At last she got someone to talk to and the boy indeed was polite. She felt comfortable sitting with him.

After some moments of silence the boy speaked again "ah…. By the way I'm Ash Ketchum. And I'm living here in pallet town. what's yours?"

She waved him a smile and uttered, " hey ash, I'm serena. I'm from the kalos region. I've recently shifted here to study in this school. It's really nice to meet you."

"whoa you've come from kalos region! That's an awesome place."

"so you've seen the place?"

"yeah kind of. I'm a pokemon trainer so I participated in the kalos league last year."

"really? How you ended up there?"

"well I finished up being second in the league you know . a guy named Alain got me in the finals."

"wow it seems you're quiet good of a trainer"

"nah it's not like that. I need to work harder to become the best pokemon master in the world. Speaking of which serena what is your dream?"

"Well I have'nt decided yet. But after talking to you I will surely find a way petty soon."

"Yeah you sure will and never give up till it's over."

That last phrase caught Serena off guard. 'never give up til it's over' was the thing that enchanted in her mind and within moments she felt energetic as if those words renewed her with courage. 'I must have heard it before, this is very common…..uh! let's forget it for now' pushing her thoughts aside she ended up saying,

"Thanks for the boost ash, this was much needed for me . when I came here I was pretty freaked out by this new surrounding. But having you as a friend will help me get things way better now."

"I'm glad to help ya serena. Whoa here we go ! The teacher is in here."

Serena then turned her eyes towards a tall rough man entering the class. She stood up along with others.

The teacher came in and was greeted by his new batch of students. With a little touch of experience in his eyes he fixed his glasses and while rubbing his hands together said, " Hello everyone. Welcome to pallet high, an university where dream comes true. I am Asturd wells your chemistry teacher, and I am feeling proud to say that this glorious university has touched its 25th year with you guys as our new freshmen. I hope that that this year will be very good for all of you and also for us, wishing all of you best of luck for your new academic year. You all can refer me as Mr. wells and I will be very friendly towards you, as I consider you guys as my friends. Study gets better with a better approach and if you make it interesting you sure will love anything you study. So I let you to introduce yourselves, keeping me aware of your name and nature in future days. Let's start with you, boy, over there in the second bench corner."

A random boy introduced himself so did others. Mr. wells now asked ash to introduce himself. He did very well. After ash it was now time for serena to introduce herself. She lifted herself up and facing the polite yet stern face of the teacher replied, " Hi everyone , I am Serena Yvone. I am from the kalos region. I've recently shifted here to let me cherish the luxury of reading in such a prestigious university. I wish that we will get to know each other very soon." She took her seat and sighed

'well here goes for nothing!' she thought. She quickly noticed ash giving her a thumbs up and a 'you did great' look, for which she smiled him back, when she felt her heart beat fast as ash blankly stared at her for some moments but then looked back. Before she could get what happened the teacher started his class.

AFTER ONE HOUR

The teacher quickly packed his books and said "okay class so this is it for today. I would say to go through the atomic structure when we have our next class. Do give emphasis on bohr's atomic theory. Bye for now." He moved out. Ash asked Serena , "hey Serena which class do you check now", as she said " yeah let me give it a hit once". She had commerce.

" looks like you are having commerce now. Ah I am having a class on pokemon types. But check it out Serena we have two class together today. Kay then see ya later."

"huh and ash!?"

"yeah serena?"

" mm…thanks for being there with me today. But for your help I might have remained dumb in the chemistry class."

"don't worry Serena . we are friends aren't we? I am glad to help you anytime .", and with a genuine smile he waved her bye.

'he is sorta cute and adorable' she thought.

'she is sorta pretty and nice' he thought.

Serena moved to her next class. It was a bit smaller than the last one but still was large enough for her to find a her was a tall brunette girl who cherishly greeted her, "hello there I'm Dawn, its nice to meetcha. Are you the resident of this city or….."

"nope. I am from the kalos region, but by far this day has gone pretty good for me and I've started liking this place. What about you?"

"yeah this day is going nice for me. I've also got many new friends, and many of my old friends are here too. So what period you had in the first place?"

"I had chemistry. It went awesome."

"I guess we May many some more classes together. Lets see…."

She peeked in her routine record and started matching it with Serena's and exclaimed, "wow Serena we are having 8 to 9 classes together in week including this one. We are gonna have many fun times together"

"Yeah we sure will."

"Would you like to meet my friends during lunch?"

"I'd love to!"

"it's settled then! Jus gimme a sec."

She texted some of her friends and said, "I've told all of them to come and meet us in the canteen during lunch break. It'll be great then."

"I would be glad to meet all of your friends. But lets hit the books for now."

"Yeah you're right."

They soon concentrated on their class as the teacher started with his lessons.

MEANWHILE WITH ASH

Ash passed down the aisle to enter his next class. Relaxing himself on a seat his empty sight now moved towards a spiky haired boy staring at him.

"what's your name?" Ash asked.

"oh hey, just could'nt see through. I'm Gary,it's nice to meet you"

"I'm Ash , it's nice to meet you too."

"looks like you're quiet interested in the battle classes just the way I do!"

"Yeah you bet! I'm all hyped up!"

"let's get through the books then. The will arrive anytime."

The teacher enters.

Placing his specs on the table, he firstly sits on the chair and sips some water the proceeds, " hello class ,I am Mr. smith and I'm your new pokemon type teacher and this is going to be an interesting class for you guys."

While the teacher continued with his lessons gary's phone vibrated. He unlocked it to find a message from Dawn that read:

Hey gary,

It's Dawn. Well you see I have a friend who has come from kalos to study here. She would be happy if after this class I get her introduced to all of you. Hope you accede to my plans. You May bring your friends to meet us. See ya later. Gotta focus on the class.

Bye.

He kept the phone aside and called Ash

"what'd ya say Ash?"

"what?"

"Would you like to meet my friends after the class gets over? They would love to see you."

Ash was planning to meet Serena at the lunch. This sudden question of gary caught him off guard, but he decided it would be rude to reject him so said

"Yeah sure I guess."

The teacher called Ash

"hey you over there. What makes you blab?"

"uh I'm sorry sir just gossip."

"then answer this question who has a type disadvantage when a fire type and an ice type faces off?"

" the ice type type has the disadvantage sir, since fire can melt ice."

"hmm looks you're attending the class as well. You may sit."

As Ash sat down gary said "wow Ash you're quite a good learner. I didn't knew the answer for sure."

"ah it's nothing, you'll eventually get passed in these. But lets not talk much"

"Yeah"

The class continued.
