Iris' POV

When we finally arrived at the hotel, I got a key for the room, and Meadow got the same one. Meadow and I decided that we'd share a room. When we entered the room, I saw that we got the one with the bunkbeds. Amazing! "I'm claiming this one!" Barry yelled sitting on top of the first one. Brendan shrugged and placed his stuff on the bed under Barry's. "I'm claiming the top one!" I also yelled. "What!? I wanted that one," Meadow pouted. "Too bad," I said sticking out my tongue. "Hmpf," she grumbled. "It's that I'm too tired to start an argue," she said crashing on the last available bed. "Goodnight," she continued. "Shouldn't you change first?" I asked her. "Ugh... Yeah..." Meadow sighed and got up again. "Where?" she asked next. "What do you mean 'next'?" I asked her. "Where am I going to change? There are human beings from the opposite gender in this room," she explained. "We're going to the bathroom, and they can get changed here," I suggested. "But then I have to walk," Meadow whined. I sighed. "You have legs. Use them," I said grabbing my pyjama.

Leaf's POV

"I'm claiming that one!" May immediately yelled as we entered the room. She sat down on the one-person bed. I sat down on the other one-person bed. "Wai- That's not fair!" Gary yelled when he realised that only the two-person bed was left. "Oh no! I'm not sleeping in one bed with Gary!" Drew yelled. I rolled my eyes. Yes, it's weird for guys to sleep in one bed, I guess, but I want my own bed. But wait...

"May, go sleep on the two-person bed. You owe me one for the airplane," I said. "What? No!" she shot back. "Alright, I'll sit also next to Gary when we're flying back, if you sleep in the two-person bed," I said. May mumbled some words and grabbed her stuff. "So, since you two are a pair, I guess that you should sleep there," Drew quickly said claiming the one-person bed. Hey, that wasn't the plan! "Wait a sec... I'M CLAIMING THAT BED!" Gary yelled pointing at the bed I was sitting on. "Hey, this one is already mine!" I shot back. "You never said it, you just sat on it. Now it's mine!" Gary said proudly. "Then you'll have to get me of first," I said daring. "Alright," Gary answered. I grabbed the bed, but Gary was stronger than I expected, and in no time, he'd threw me over his shoulder. "Hey! Put me down!" I yelled slamming my fists on his back. "Alright," Gary said again, lowering me on the two-person bed.

He walked back to the other bed, but I got up and tackled him in the back. I pinned him to the ground and sat on top of him. "I win," I whispered. "Really?" he asked me. He gave me a smirk, and I saw a playful sparkle in his eyes, which caught me off guard. Gary noticed, and manged to change roles as he pinned me to the ground. "I win," he whispered. Our faces were inches apart. When I noticed that, I started to blush. Gary also noticed because his face also got red.

"GET A ROOM!" May suddenly yelled. Crap, I forgot those two were still here. My face became even more red, if that was possible, when I saw May and Drew, who both had a huge smirk on their faces.

Moon's POV

"Wake up, wake up!" an enthusiastic voice yelled in my ear. "Good morning to you too, Hau," I yawned. "We have so much to do today!" he continued. "We have to visit Sun, your mom, gramps, Guzma, Lusamine (A/N oh my Arceus, it autocorrected to Glutamine and I can't stop laughing why), and most importantly, the malasada shop!" he yelled excited. "Are Glads and Lils awake?" I asked him. "Yeah, they're already at breakfast, now hurry up!".

"Morning," I said to the rest while sitting down. "Has Hau already told you the plan for today?" Lillie asked me. "Yup. So, we're first going to the league?" I asked. Sun was originally also going to the same school as us, but because of his title as Champion he couldn't. "No, that's too far. I sent him an anonymous letter saying that he should meet us at the Beachfront of Hau'oli City," Lillie said. "You didn't sign it or mention any of us?" I asked her. "No, we wanted to surprise him!" Hau said eating a malasada. "Good idea!" I smiled. "What are you guys going to do today?" professor Kukui asked us. Hau explained the plan once again. "Let me guess, you're going to professor Burnet?" I asked him. "Of course! And she doesn't know it yet," he said with a wink. "Cute!" I whispered to Lillie. Kukui heard it and smiled. "Don't forget to be back for dinner!" he said before walking away.

"Look, he's already here," I whispered. Sun was standing with his back turned to us. Hau and I looked at each other and had the same idea. We sneaked up to Sun. "SUUUUUUN!" we both yelled as we jumped on his back. He hadn't expected us and fell on the sand. "Moon? Hau?!" Sun asked confused. "YEP!" Hau yelled. We all got up again. "Hi there!" Lillie said waving. "Hey," Gladion said. "What are you guys doing here?" Sun asked with a big smile on his face. "We're on a school trip!" I said. "Really? That's amazing! So, where are you going next?" he asked. "To my mom and Hala," I said. "I'm coming with you!" he yelled. "Are my eyes tricking me or is that really you?" a heavy voice suddenly asked from behind. "Whaddup kiddos? It's ya' boy Guzma!"

"Guzma!" I yelled as I tackled him in a hug. "Calm down, kid. What are y'all doing here?" he said laughing. "We're on a school trip!" Hau said, taking his regular pose. "So, the whole school is here in Alola?" he asked. "No, just our class," Lillie explained. "Then what's my little Gladion doing here?" he continued. "We're here for a project, and he's in it too because he sucks at math," I explained. With the last part I earned a glare from the edgelord himself. "What's the project about?" Sun asked. "Our prof wants to see if people can fall in love in a certain period," Hau said. "What has that to do with math?" Sun continued. "Nothing, the prof is just crazy and rich, so he can do whatever he wants," I shrugged. "Wait, so you're testing that? How does it work?" Sun asked. "We got paired up, and we have to do practically everything with the partner, like sitting next to each other, and stuff like that," Lillie explained. "Wait! Lillie and Hau are paired up and Moon and Gladion?" Guzma asked. "Yep," Hau answered. "No way! I'm wheezing!" Guzma said laughing. "Get it? Wheezing?" he asked hopeful. "Yeah, we get it," I said with a smile. "How long is the project?" Sun asked. "Three months," I answered. "Three months? Well, Gladion certainly doesn't need three months to fall in love since he's alre-" Guzma couldn't finish his sentence because Gladion had punched him in his stomach. "I got the message," Guzma said as he clutched his stomach.

"I'm already going to gramps, that way we can spend more time in the malasada shop!" Hau said before grabbing Lillie's hand and running away. "We'll meet you guys later!" I shouted after him. "Hi mom!" I yelled as soon as I opened the door. "Hi dear! What a pleasant surprise! Nice to see you too, Gladion. Why are you here?" she answered. I explained the school trip and all once again. We stayed and talked for a while, before leaving again. "Good luck in school!" mom said pulling me in a hug. "Thank you!" I said hugging her back. "Call me when you get back in Hoenn!" she said waving goodbye. "You got it!" I said back.

As we walked in the malasada shop, I saw Lillie, Hau, Sun and Guzma already waiting for us. "I ordered a sour malasada and sat down next to Guzma, and Gladion sat next to me. "This is Hau's third one," Lillie said looking at Hau. "THEY'RE SO DELICIOUS!" Hau said taking another bite. "I'm going to the bathroom," Gladion excused himself as he walked away. We just kept on talking, but time flew by and Gladion still wasn't back. "I'll go check on him," Guzma said standing up.

"And?" I asked when he returned. "He ain't there," Guzma answered. I looked at Lillie. "I think I know where he can be," Lillie said. We said goodbye to Sun and Guzma and left of to the Aether Paradise.

"The ferry leaves in ten minutes," Lillie said, as she returned with the tickets. "He's an idiot! It's against the rules to wander off by yourself! But apparently he's too edgy for rules!" I complained. "I think he just wanted some alone time with mother," Lillie said. "He could've just asked me that! But apparently he's too edgy to ask stuff!" I continued my rant. "He didn't used to be like that, you know?" Lillie said as she stood up to get a drink from the vending machine. "What do you mean?" Hau asked. "When we were younger, he was a very happy kid. Here, look at this," Lillie handed over a photo. On the picture you could see a younger Lusamine, a small Lillie, holding a lillipup, and a young Gladion, holding a cleffa above his head. "You are both so cute!" I said handing the photo to Hau. "Aw, look at the small Lillie!" he said giving the photo back to Lillie, and a small blush appeared on her face. "Unlike then, you hardly see him smile. Well, except for when he talks abou-," she suddenly stopped. "Never mind. I should let him do it himself," she continued with a smile. Hau and I looked confused at each other, but there wasn't time for questions, the ferry had arrived.

"Wicke!" Lillie shouted as Wicke came in vision. "Miss Lillie, it's nice to see you again. And you too, Moon and Hau. Young master Gladion just arrived a minute ago. He's with president Lusamine in the mansion at the moment," Wicke said politely. "A minute? But we had to wait ten minutes for the ferry and he left way earlier!" Hau said confused. "Thank you, Wicke, we'll be going there too now," Lillie said with a polite nod. "Oh, Hau, here. Have some malasadas," Wicke said handing over two big malasadas. She's always so nice!

"We'll give you some private time," I said to Lillie when we arrived at the front door of the mansion. "Thank you," she replied before going inside. "Say, Hau, what do you think of Lillie?" I suddenly asked the guy. "Lillie? Well, she's a really nice girl, always polite and in her Z-powered form she's a lot more confident. And she's also very cute," he answered. "Do you like Lillie?" I asked. "Well, of course I like her! As a friend, but I think I also like her more than that. When I'm alone with her, I get really nervous and try to cover it up with jokes. Do you think she noticed that?" Hau asked me. "I don't think so," I answered. They're so adorable!

Suddenly the door slammed open, and Gladion walked out of the building. He walked straight past us. "Hey! Where are you going?" I yelled after him. He didn't respond. "I'm going with him, you stay with Lillie," I said to Hau, before running after Gladion.

"Is something wrong?" I asked when I caught up with him. He sighed. "Nothing," he answered. "Yeah, like I'd believe that," I rolled my eyes. "I just want to be alone right now," he said, looking away. "Well, I'm not leaving you," I responded. "Why not?" Gladion asked, with a little irritation in his voice. "First of all, it's against the rules. And second, I like being with you. So you can yell at me, hit me, whatever, I won't leave you. Unless you're secretly Pennywise, then I'm outta here," I said making a disgusted face. Gladion was at first silent, but then surprisingly started to laugh. I was taken a bit back, because I never expected such a reaction. "I told you that you shouldn't have watched that movie!" he said, still a bit laughing. A smile appeared on my face as well.

"Wait, what time is it?" Gladion suddenly asked. "Eh, ten for seven. Oh, yeah, we have to be back at seven," I replied. "Eh, yeah, sure," Gladion answered. We took the ferry back to Akala island. I was about to head to the hotel, when Gladion grabbed my hand and pulled me in the opposite direction. "The hotel is there," I said to him. "I know," he answered with a smile. "Where are we going then?" I asked confused. "Just wait," he answered. "We're breaking the rules!" I complained when I saw that it was seven already. "Don't worry, goody two-shoes, Kukui gave me permission," he answered, still holding my hand. I just pouted.

"Close your eyes," Gladion demanded when we arrived at Hano beach. "What?" I asked confused. "Trust me," he assured me. "Fine," I said closing my eyes. "No peeking!" he said as he led me over the beach. "Don't worry," I answered. Suddenly the soft sand under my shoes was replaced with a solid ground. "Can I open my eyes?" I asked Gladion. "Not yet," he answered. I pouted again. Suddenly I felt two arms picking me up. "Aah! What are you doing?!" I screamed. "Calm down, I'm just picking you up, it's to hard to guide you here," he answered. "Can I open my eyes?" I asked again. "No," he replied. I could hear in his voice that he was genuinely happy, which made me happy too.

"Alright, you can open your eyes now," Gladion said putting me back on the ground. We stood on a cliff with a beautiful view over the ocean. "Wow... This is amazing," I answered speechless. "You're catching flies," Gladion said and I quickly closed me mouth. "What is this place?" I asked him. "This is sort of a secret place. I used to come here a lot when I was on the run," he answered. At that moment my stomach growled like a pyroar who hadn't eaten for weeks. "Perfect timing," I murmured, feeling my face becoming red. "Don't worry, I took care of it. Well, actually, professor Kukui made it for me," Gladion said as he showed the picnic basket that was a few meters from us. "Gladion... I don't know what to say," I whispered. "Then don't," Gladion answered as he sat down. I sat down next to him. We ate in silence, enjoying the view and each other's company. "Thank you," I whispered when we were finished. "Thank you too," he whispered back. "For what? I didn't do anything," I asked confused. "Thank you for not leaving me when I asked you to," he said. He gave me a kiss on my cheek, but after that he immediately pulled my hat over my face. At first, I was a bit shocked and confused about what just happened, but soon I felt a blush appearing on my face that was hidden under my hat. "Hey! I can't see anything!" I said with a laugh. As I put my hat back to its normal position, I saw Gladion standing up with also a blush on his cheeks. "Let's head back, it's getting late," Gladion said grabbing up some stuff. "Okay," I chirped.

"Where were you guys!?" Hau immediately yelled as we set a foot in the lobby. "Eh, some team skull grunts attacked us," Gladion said before I could answer. I just rolled with it and nodded. "You missed all of the food! You're lucky Lillie and I saved some for you! Let's go!" Hau yelled as we went back to our room.

Iris's POV

"Let's play truth or dare!" I yelled enthusiastic. "Really?" Meadow asked sarcastically. "Yeah! And I already made a plan! We're gonna ask if May and Gary wanna join us, and maybe Misty and Ash too, because playing with four isn't fun, and because it's time Brendan's gonna make a move," I explained proudly. "And Leaf and Drew?" Meadow asked. "No, Drew and Brendan in one room isn't a good idea," I said like it was obvious. "I'm fine with being in one room with Drew. Th problem is when he starts to talk," Brendan said not looking up from the magazine he was reading. "I'm gonna ask them, be right back!" I said before closing the door. When I was in the hallway, I saw May walking towards me. "Hey May, you wanna join truth or dare with us?" I immediately asked. "I was just about to ask you guys! We're with six, since Dawn was already asleep, and Paul is staying with her. I also tried Serena's room, but Mallow and Kiawe are staying with their families and Serena and Calem weren't in the mood," she explained. "Perfect!" I said. Crap, six of them also means Drew. But that's not gonna stop me! "You coming to our room? We have the bunkbeds," I asked. "Sure! Let me get the rest first," she said turning around. "Alright!" I said back.

"Good news, they're in. Bad news, Drew is also there," I said sitting on Meadows bed. "Alright," Meadow responded, putting away her book. "Hey guys!" Misty said entering the room first. Misty sat down next to me, Leaf and Gary sat on my bed, while Ash took place next to Barry. May sat next to Brendan and Drew next to May. Oh boy.

"Let's begin!"

I was planning to do the truth or dare this chapter, but this chapter is longer than I expected, so I'll do it next chapter. Plus, I suck at making questions and dares, so... if you have any thruth or dare... please help me, please?

PLEASEEE???? :)

XD

I also can just google some... Whelp

Also, once again, I've had a lot of time last week, so I could write a lot. Of course, I'll try to write as much as possible, but again, don't get too used to it ;P
