Hi guys, this last week has been a huge pain in the butt for me. But this oneshot is overdue. This one is courtesy of LukasHinkle who gave me an interesting oneshot to contend with. Also, time to give Pikachu a dose of the love bug. This is gonna be a tad different, but readers of limitless resolve might enjoy this to. Hope you all enjoy :)

I woke up like I do on any other day. From the end of the bed, the suns rays soaked the room in warmth and the promise of a new day.

I started with a simple yawn, my ears pricked up and my nose wrinkled. Someone was cooking. Obviously not Ash considering he was still sound asleep. By looking behind me at a tuft of black hair protruding from the quilt cover I knew this to be true. An evil smile grew on my face. I unfolded my bolt-like tail from beneath me, gave a good stretch of my front legs and hopped off the bed.

I grinned as Ash turned over in his bed facing me. This might not come as a shock to him, well, physically it will. So I held my small hands like fists, closed my eyes and felt the familiar electrical burst of power build up within me. An electric surge blasted from within me, to my rosy red cheeks and out in an arc of yellow lightning directly at Ash.

The furious bolt of lightning was met with an all to familiar scream as Ash shot into the air shaking as shocks and sparks erupted through his body. Ever since he was young, being a pint sized alarm clock was always one of my favourite ways to wake up. Maybe it wasn't his but, hey, he should learn that this is what happens when he doesn't wake up before me.

When he finally hit the ground he looked up at me with a scowl. Maybe a few years ago, that would make me feel guilty, but I suppose the soot all over his face removed any of that from my system. Instead, I chuckled slightly at the fact I made his hair blacker somehow. "Oh you think this is funny huh Pikachu?" he grumbled.

I was not gonna lie, even now it made me grin to see him...'in a state of shock.' He rose from the now charred sheets, grabbed them and after throwing them into the wash basket, he ambled into the bathroom mumbling something about 'cheeky furballs.'

A few moments later, the smell of breakfast wafted back into the room and my focus went to the door. As if sensing my intention, the door swung open with a nervous creak. I almost laughed at that idea until a familiar fairy type strolled in.

I gulped. "H-Hey Sylveon." Damn it all. She always makes me nervous. She is just so...radiant. Similar to our trainers, I have a bit of a crush on her, but not so similar to our trainers, I haven't done anything about it. "Morning Pikachu, Serena sent me up to check on you two after a scream. Is Ash?"

My composure returned. "Yeah, yeah he is fine, charred, but fine." Sylveon giggled a sweet laugh to this. Its adorable to say the least. "I'm sure he would have woken up by himself Pikachu." True, but where is the fun in that. "Yeah, maybe in the afternoon." I replied smirking. We stared at each other a moment and both began laughing. My acute hearing picked up the running of water turning silent. "Say Sylveon, would you-" I was cut off when Ash walked out of the bathroom with a pair of shorts completely soot free.

I glared at him for ruining the moment which was a mistake on my part. He may or may not have picked up on my 'affliction' about Sylveon. Now he was gonna get revenge. When he noticed my look, he grinned in a similar way to me. "Hey Sylveon." Sylveon greeted him back. "Sorry, Pikachu I didn't mean to interrupt your cute-" This time I cut him off. He faltered when he saw my cheeks sparking little bolts of lightning, I doubt he wants to be having two showers.

With Ash shut up, Sylveon looked at me confused. I sighed in relief. She kinda reminds me of Ash a few years back, Sylveon is kinda dense. At least, she is when it comes to my feelings. Somehow that makes me both relived and disappointed. Before anyone else could say anything, another voice echoed from the hallway to the room.

"Ash, you up? Breakfast is ready." Serena's honey blonde head popped around the corner of the doorframe. "Hurry up before it gets cold, oh..." Serena went quiet and was blushing at the sight of Ash in just shorts. In this case Sylveon wasn't dense. We smirked at each other knowingly as our trainers both blushed intensely. I suppose you could say we 'ship' it.

"Hi, Serena, I was just...uh... getting dressed. " Ash muttered. "Yep, that's fine, pan abs... CAKES, PANCAKES are downstairs. Uh bye." Serena retreated in her embarrassment. Sylveon giggled, gave me a smile and followed. I glanced at Ash whose cheeks were now cooling down. Its amazing that after being together for over 5 years now, he and Serena still blush around each other. When Serena first kissed him, that really broke him out of his dense shell. Bonus for me, I get to stay with Sylveon.

"You go ahead buddy, I will be down in a minute." He didn't have to tell me twice, I ran down the stairs at great speed, practically floating and being carried by the heavenly scent of pancakes. That thought brought me back to one time in Alola when I was rivals with this cocky floating Raichu in a pancake race.

I would have totally beat him if it wasn't for that weird Bewear... though I didn't lose to him either so its all good. When I entered the kitchen, the heavenly scent reached its peak and the sight before me had me drooling at the mouth. Three mountains of pancakes were on the table of our apartment. I could immediately tell one was mine. Me and Ash tend to eat a scary amount of food, Serena and Sylveon were likely sharing their one. 

Serena noticed me staining her floor with saliva and smiled. "Dig in Pikachu, you to Sylveon. Pikachu, Sylveon thought you would like yours with a special ingredient." I looked at Sylveon then at the pancakes. They were coated in the most beautiful, mouth-watering, holy substance ever to grace Arceus' green Earth...KETCHUP!!!

I couldn't help it, I walked up to Sylveon and nuzzled her lovingly. I tend to lose control at the sight of that stuff. "You know me so well!" I grinned after I stopped nuzzling Sylveon, careful not to let her touch my cheeks. "Yeah, um, your welcome." She bridled slightly. Was she...was she blushing?! It might just be her vibrant pink fur but she looked nervous. Just for a second, my thoughts were away from ketchup.

"You two are so adorable. If only Braixen could see this." Serena squealed breaking our moment. Braixen and Greninja had really hit it off. Some time after we came to Kalos again, Greninja found us. Like most of Ash's pokemon, he was at Oak's place in Kanto. Serena allowed Braixen to be transferred with him so she could be happy.

"Sylveon, just admit that mmff?" Serena was saying something which I did not quite catch when Sylveon put a feeler over her mouth to silence her. I decided not to question it though I did notice Sylveon's blush like expression grow. Forgetting about them, I sunk my teeth into the heavenly concoction before me. Halfway through a devastated mountain of pancakes bathed in the blood of a tomato, Ash walked in.

I as glad Serena was the cook of the two. Ash tried to pull off many a meal turned fiasco in Alola. None of them turned out very pretty. Just thinking about it makes me shudder. I mean I helped but hes the one with human hands...and no skill.

"Morning beautiful." He said as he walked over to Serena and kissed her cheek. She blushed...obviously. I ignored them for the most part. "That was fast." Serena commented. "Of course, I could not resist the amazing smell from upstairs. I had to get to my Pan ABS before Pikachu scoffed them all." He pretend mocked his girlfriend.

I glared at him for that comment. I like to think I have lost weight since we first met. Serena got my revenge for me by flicking him on the forehead. "Your so mean Ashy." Serena looked mock offended. Then they hugged. Most of their interactions after that were a blur. Sylveon jumped up onto the table with me and we finished the pancake as Ash and Serena walked out and fetched their coats.

When they came back in, they were both smiling with obvious excitement. "Sylveon, Pikachu, Ash and I are going on a date, it has been a little while and some quality time would be really nice, will you guys be ok?" A quick look shared between the two of us and a simultaneous nod gave Serena her answer.

"Have fun you two!" We both called. Even if they don't understand us, they get the idea. With the two of them gone, I realised something. I was alone...with the pokemon who held my heart in a knot. With Sylveon. I gulped as the realisation set in. "So... what now?" Sylveon muttered quietly.

"How about we watch some of those Pokedance shows you like?" Her face lit up when I said that. I didn't mind the dance shows but I know that Sylveon loved them with her performance history and incredible dance moves as the cute and shy Eevee she once was. We walked into living room and Sylveon leaped onto the double sofa.

I struggled with the remote. It was a stupidly large one, holding it in both paws I managed to stumble and fall forward. Making myself look like a fool in front of the one I like wasn't really on the to do list but at least I got a damned adorable smile and giggle from her. "Need some help?" She giggled once more and extended two of her feelers. One wrapped around the remote and the other wrapped around me.

She lifted me up along with the remote. Its times like this I'm glad my cheeks are naturally red, she cant see me blushing. Only if something truly adorable can either of us really see each other blushing. "Oh stop pouting Pikachu, it was kind of cute, I just hope you didn't crush the remote under your pancake pot belly." She snickered and I rolled my black eyes.

Then I turned on the TV and we watched Pokedance shows to her hearts content. It wasn't that bad and admittedly it was kinda entertaining in some moments. Some girl and her Piplup doing some mad spins everywhere. That brings back memories... A load of random performers and their pokemon.

At one point I found myself blurting out the words. "You know, none of these are anywhere near as talented as you Sylveon." She gave me a sidewards head look and then a smile which could melt the coldest heart. Some time after that she actually began leaning onto me with two of her feelers wrapping around my arm and bringing us closer together.

At that my point my innards may have liquidated from the sheer nervousness I felt. Ironic, how Ash and Serena were the ones on a date and here we were...like this. It was heaven. The two of them came back sometime later in the evening. Sylveon was sound asleep and I dared not wake her.

I was looking at her the way Ash looked at Serena. As if he had to soak in the image of her smile, let it sear its image into his brain for fear he would forget it. They both smiled at our state. It was also clear they had a good night. Serena kissed Ash and headed off upstairs. Her fingers lingered on his hands a few moments as she retreated in a much more dignified way than the morning.

Soon we all ended up going to bed. Well more like Sylveon slept on the couch and I didn't particularly want to move either. To my surprise Ash woke up early the next morning. He tugged on my ear to wake me up. Groggily I opened my eyes, he knows I hate when he does that. "Don't give me that look, you shocked me, that hardly makes us even. Anyway come on, we got somehere to be."

I did not know what he meant by that statement but I got up gently easing Sylveons feelers onto a pillow. I jumped on Ash's shoulder as I always have done and we went into the kitchen. Ash grabbed one of those breakfast bars and then we headed out, where I don't know.

15 minutes of walking had passed and Ash got out the breakfast bar. Splitting it into two parts, he offered me one piece. I gladly took it and squeaked my thanks. "Ok, Pikachu listen. Last night, as you know, I went on a date with Serena." I nodded and he continued. "Well, that date was more like a way of me coming to a certain decision I have been thinking of lately."

I finished the last morsel of my improvised breakfast and continued listening fully. "Well, I have come to that decision and that is where we are going. Since I don't want you ruining the surprise, you will have to wait and see." I gave him a look that said 'who me?'  and Ash rolled his eyes.

"Yes you, anyway I was thinking that this would be a good opportunity for you to get something for Sylveon while I get what I need for Serena." That was considerate of him. I wonder what he has planned. Then I wondered what he might be getting Serena and then what I could get for Sylveon. My choices were narrowed down when we entered the jewellers. Kalos had an excellent array of shops just a little away from Vaniville.

Ash was very quick in deciding what he got. A small glimmer escaped his hand but did not give away the identity of his gift. After that we walked around for a couple more minute with him offering ideas on my gift for Sylveon and me shaking my head each time. Then as we were walking a shimmering glint caught my eye a couple of shelves above.

I pointed upwards. "Up there!" I yelled. Before Ash could react, I jumped off his shoulder and climbed up to the shelf. What I saw made my eyes glimmer like stars. It was perfect. Sylveon would no doubt love it as much as I do. I picked up the case with several bright objects within and showed Ash. "That huh? Good choice bud." I dropped it down to him. He caught it and we paid for the both of the gifts with no delay.

On the way home, Ash's smile never faltered. He was planning something, something big involving Serena. I had my suspicions but I suppose we will find out tomorrow on his next date with Serena.

The day went quite quickly after that, almost as if a time skip was in order to get to the next juicy bit of the following day.

Ash once again woke up early. He and Serena were dressed very differently following breakfast. He wore a tuxedo of sorts with a very interestingly coloured tie. It was red. It made me hungry. Serena on the other hand looked quite beautiful. Both me and Sylveon squeaked our approval of her cloud white dress and bonnet. It was complimented well with both a yellow ribbon on the hat and her blue ribbon which she had faithfully worn all these years. A symbol of her love for Ash.

Just as they were heading out, Ash stopped and tuned back to me. He kneeled down and whispered under a low voice. "Hey bud, might wanna take this opportunity to show Sylveon your gift." He smiled and I gasped. I hadn't thought abou that. He gave me a toothy grin and gestured to Sylveon who, like her trainer, was confused. " See you later Pikachu."

Ash turned and walked out hand in hand with Serena. "What was that about?" Serena sked with a raised eyebrow just as the door began to close. Ash merely tapped the side of his nose as the door closed with an exasperated sigh from Serena.

I wasted no time. "Hey Sylveon, wait here." She nodded, though still slightly confused. I ran to the bedroom and opened up the closet by jumping on the handle and hangling on as it slid open. As expected there was the bag. Ash had already took his gift. Hang on, he could have left the door open.

Ignoring Ash's incompetence, I took the gift from the bag and quickly ran downstairs. There Sylveon was sitting patiently. "Ok...this is for you." I presented four of them. They were gemstones of varying colour each attached in a ribbon of a slightly darker variant of the colour of its own gemstone. There was a red ruby, blue sapphire, green emerald and yellow diamond.

Each one was meant to be a ribbon for one of Sylveons feelers. Sylveon was left  speechless at the sight of the sparkling gem ribbons. "Oh, Pikachu!" She finally managed. I wasn't expecting her to grab me in all four of her feelers and hug me the way she did. It was great. "They are beautiful! Thank you so much." She set me down after nuzzling me emotionally.

"Your welcome Sylveon, its just my way of showing how much I care fore you..." Right there I could tell she was definitely blushing. However sad I was to interrupting the moment, we had to be fast. "Sylveon, we should go, don't you wanna see what Ash and Serena needed to be so dressed up for. Soemthing tells me this isn't a normal date."

With Sylveon in agreement, we both went out of the house after our trainers. This time, Sylveon opened the door, I am NOT hanging off a handle again today.

Ash and Serena did some pretty basic date stuff, had dinner, watched a movie etc. What did confuse me and Sylveon as we followed them was when they entered the forest. I still had my fifth part of the gift for Sylveon hidden. We pokemon have a very special way of holding onto things without them being seen.

We followed them into the forest either way. What followed confirmed my suspicions from yesterday.

Ash and Serena finally settled down in a fairly open clearing. Sylveon and I watched from a safe distance from behind a tree. Ash began to speak to Serena. Luckily, our incredible hearing picked up exactly what was being said.

"Serena, I brought you here for a reason. It was a forest like this where we met for the very first time. I hadn't realised it back then, but I'm glad to say since then, we were bound to be soulmates. I would have taken you to that very spot if we were in Kanto. I guess this is the next best thing."

"They are talking about how they first met, what has that got to do with a date?" Sylveon questioned quietly. "Lets find out." Ash continued. "That place was very special to me. As are you. You have become my goal, my drive and my reason to never give up. Now I was wondering if, till the very end..." He paused.

Taking a small box from his pocket, Ash presented a ring before Serena down on one very cliché knee. "Would you be my wife?" Those words immediately made me and Sylveon blush madly. My ears twisted up in a knot. Sylveons two front feelers went over her eyes partially. We were both astonished by this sight.

Serena held her hands to her mouth kinda like Sylveon, bursting with surprise. "Ash..." For a moment we feared she would deny him, as did Ash as sweat drenched his brow. But then. "Yes, yes of course!!" She pulled him in for a hug. When she pulled back, Ash placed the ring gently on her finger then kissed it. The both of them hugged once more. Now then...

Turning to Sylveon I gulped the biggest bit of courage I could down to my fluttering stomach. "Sylveon, I guess I should follow Ash's example." I pulled out the final part of the gift. This one was a butterfly ribbon which was centrally pink and then had a shade of blue outlining. In the very center was a large pink pearl from a Clamperl. It matched her fur and feelers perfectly.

"Pikachu. That's so sweet..." Complimenting her feelers which had the multi-coloured gemstone ribbons. This final ribbon went on Sylveon's head and seemed to compliment her already stunning appearance. It was then that we hugged fully realising the love that our trainers had... was something that we shared. "I guess you could consider this a dual proposal."

I told Sylveon I love her just as Ash told Serena the very same words.

GASP 3500 words. Nother GASP Pikachu fell in love. This one was so different. Sorry for the wait Lukas. Hope everyone enjoyed this one :)
