How We Met .....PT 2

"Easy, when the Dragonites attack, Ash saved me." Elena said in a chuckle. "I was so far from my Poke balls that I was actually defenseless and when they were about to attack me, someone push me to the water saving me from there attack and when I opened my eyes I saw Ash protecting me from the storm of electricity that blasted the Dragonites, stunning them for a while. Ash then suddenly carried me away as the Dragonites chased us." Elena told them with an embarrass smile. "And you know what; Ash was the first boy that actually held me like that and it was very comfortable." Elena added much to some of the girls and a certain idiot's dismay.

"How did Ash held you?" Sarah asked softly and quietly.

Elena merely smiled at her sister sweetly. "I'll keep that to myself." Elena stated mischievously.

Before Sarah could ask another question, Jane cut her off. "So after you save Elena, thank you for that by the way, what happened next?" Jane asked with a curious tone.

Ash and Elena looked at each other before chuckling in unison. "Well we were lucky back then that Ash found a cave and it rain, causing the Dragonites to retreat. The two of us hid in the cave for the night and to make a long story short, we instantly became friends." Elena concluded with a bright smile.

The group nodded but that did not answer any of there question "Answer this then, why are you two so close to each other, the way you two dance back then was so sweet that it seems that you two are already a couple." Neil inquired curiously causing the people that known about there relationship to coughed a bit while the mentioned merely smiled at him.

"Your name is Neil, right?" Ash asked while Neil merely nodded. "We'll that's actually a funny story." Ash stated in a smile. "Three years ago, your crew forced Elena to have a mandatory six month vacation right."

The crew nodded before sighing miserably. "That was the worst six months of our lives and the company." Michael stated in a sullen tone, remembering how much work they have to do in order to cover for Elena.

"She's an Archeologist." May exclaimed, startled a bit.

"And she's quite good at it I may add." Ash stated knowingly before returning at the subject at hand. "When she was on that force vacation was the same time I began my travel to Hoenn. Prior from our first meeting, we had a lot of run-ins with each other. Those run-ins made my Hoenn travel more entertaining." Ash stated in a laughed.

"Wait a minute, you said that you two had a lot had run-ins, right?" May asked quite shocked at that little information like the rest of the group. The two nodded in unison, causing May to bit her lower lip. "The why didn't we met her back then?" May inquired, curious on why she hadn't met the person that she now considers her biggest rival for Ash's heart.

Elena laughed softly at that question, causing May to growl a bit." That's the funny thing about it, Ash and I always met back then in the most opportunistic moments and that was when his alone, separated from you guys, or when you guys are doing Arceus knows what and leaved Ash alone." Elena answered causing May to uncharacteristically glared at Ash.

"And why didn't you introduce her to us?" May asked in a low and dangerous tone.

"Easy, I had so much fun with her every time we met that I decided, for as long as I can, to have her to myself." Ash answered causing May and anybody that he travelled with to almost cry, with the exception of Max who was now focus on his meal. The three girls can't believe that Ash care and like that girl so much that he would keep her a secret from them, for more than three years. Sarah, on the other hand, has a different reaction.

"You known Ash for more than three years and you didn't even bother introducing him to me." Sarah exclaimed as she got to her sister's face, much to her discomfort but she was quite used to this.

Elena slowly pushed her sister away from her so that she could explain. "Easy sis, if your wondering why I didn't introduce him to anyone I know is the same reason as Ash. I love his company and I don't want to share him every time we meet." Elena stated with a sharp smile and tone while emphasizing the word 'love' and the phrased 'I don't want to share him'.

"But you could have at least introduced yourself so that we know where Ash is and with whom he was with when he suddenly disappeared during his journey in Hoenn." May stated as she leered at Elena, she didn't know her that much but she decided that she hated her now.

Elena merely smiled sharply and gazed piercingly at May, challenging her to make her moved. "But you were the first that grew accustom to Ash's frequent disappearance, right?" Elena commented in a voice that suggested her to back off.

"Wait, how did you know about Ash's frequent disappearance?" Dawn asked, surprised that someone knew about Ash's disappearing act outside the group.

Elena smiled mischievously as she nodded causing all eyes to revert to the two once again. Ash sighed as he explained to them what she meant. "When Elena's six month vacation was coming to a close, we were already very closed friends. Before she departs to South Light Island, she kind of bought me this to remember her by." Ash then bought out a beautiful locket that was shape as a cross." And gave me this so we could at least have a bit of contact with each other," Ash said as he brought out his video phone. His friend, rivals and Elena's crew instantly looked at the phone and the locket.

After a moment of silence, Justin spoke." You give him those?" Justin said in shocked.

Elena chuckled while nodding her head. "I had to give him something, he had already given me a lot of freebies during our run-ins and he gave me a necklace too, and it is more beautiful and much more expensive than the one I gave him." Elena stated as she brought out the first jewelry that Ash gave her. At the sight of the beautiful necklace, every girl's eyes all went to Elena and her necklace while every boy's eyes landed on Ash.

"Ash gave you that?" The girls exclaimed loudly while the boys also had the same idea but a different question.

"How much did that caused?" All the boys asked, quite startled that Ash could afford a genuine jewel
