Chapter 8: Finally Figured Out

"What's been going on with May lately?" Ash questioned, stroking Pikachu.

"Pika?" Pikachu replied, as if to say, 'How am I supposed to know?'

"Sorry, Pikachu, that wasn't meant to be said out loud."

"Ash?"

Ash turned with a jolt. "M-M-M-May??" Ash felt his face heating up with a blush. He wanted to say more but his nervousness had overcome him. He stumbled on every word that managed to escape his mouth. He couldn't breathe. As he stared at May his mouth was sort of…chattering. His eyes were wide, as if with fear.

May seemed puzzled for a second. What was up with Ash's behavior? Was he sick or something? May didn't want to tear at that for too long Instead, May unexpectedly ran toward Ash and jumped into his arms.

"I love you, Ash!" She beamed, happily; nearly squeezing him to death.

"Err…I love you, too…?" Ash replied awkwardly.

"Oh, Ash! Really?"

"Squeezing—me—too—hard! C-Can't breathe!"

"Sorry!!" May shrieked, letting go immediately.

"It's okay." Ash assured, pushing her away gently so that she was arms length from him.

For a moment, the two of them stared deeply into each other's eyes. Without a single thought Ash leaned in and kissed May right on the lips. And May wasn't even surprised, as if she had seen this coming.

They kissed for many minutes, not wanting the kiss to end. May wrapped her arms around Ash's neck, pulling him closer. Ash followed suit lovingly wrapping his arms around her slim waist. Nothing could break up this moment; a moment so pure and romantic that the world seemed to be a perfect place right then and there.

Finally all the misunderstandings and confusion had been put to an end; Ash felt the same way about her. And she felt extremely stupid for thinking he was a two-timing…playa. If only May hadn't let her jealousy get the best of her, if she hadn't she would have been with Ash long ago. But that's the thing about a girl's brain. They jump to conclusions when it comes to the guy they're madly in love with. Kissing him felt like she had dyed and gone to heaven, it was that precious.

All worries had escaped May's world right now, there wasn't anything that could bring her down. She felt so happy, that the word "happy" couldn't quite describe it. She felt immense happiness as she kissed Ash and he kissed her back. Everything was perfect, perfect, and so very perfect that even the word "perfect" couldn't quite illustrate it.

She ran her hands through his messy black hair, enjoying the kiss, drugged by the sensation. It was an amazing sensation, one that May would never get enough of. She knew right then and there that Ash was the one, the one she wanted to spend her life with. The one she forever wanted to be with.

At last, everything had fallen into the right place. And May wouldn't have it any other way.
