George
Calem followed Summer all the way to the lake as she held his hand, his cheeks were bright red as his Manectric snickered at the flustered state of it's trainer, it probably got the gist that Calem may or may not have a crush on her now that it knew what a 'ship' was. The boy didn't notice his electric doggo laughing at his expense, he was too focused on the surroundings and her.

"I... It's so pretty.."
Sharon
She didn't let go of his hand when they arrived. She just stared out into the lake with a smile on her face. "Yeah... It is pretty.." Her voice was quiet and calm.
George
He noticed how calm she was, a soft smile on his face as he squeezed her hand slightly. He wasn't sure if he should speak to maybe get a conversation going or if he should just stay quiet and let the peaceful silence take over, which seemed to calm his nerves too.
Sharon
She blushed slightly when he squeezed her hand, but she allowed it. She decided to kneel down in the grass, still holding his hand. She decided to take out her Pokeball and release Tsareena, she loved scenery like this. Once she was released, the grass-type looked around and made a sound of content when she saw the lake and started to walk towards it.
George
The noirette knelt down beside her, taking off his red cap which was adorned with black shades and placing it beside him. His Manectric chased it's tail for a bit, clearly being very energetic as it bolted off and soon came back with a hefty stick in it's jaws. The doggo then sat down beside it's trainer, knawing away at the branch as it's tail wagged furiously.
Sharon
Tsareena turned around and walked up to the dog, who was knawing at the branch. She looked down at him and pointed at the stick. *'Want to play fetch?'* Summer just watched the two of them and softly smiled.
George
The electric type's head pricked up at the sound of one of it's favourite games, it quickly got up and held the stick lightly in it's mouth, Calem giving a small giggle and petting it's head.

"A... Alright Eléc.."

The boy took the branch from them and attempted a throw at it, although his throws weren't that strong and it didn't even go out of their sight. The doggo didn't mind though, it new he was trying his best and it got the stick with a happy grin before bringing it back to them and waiting for it to be thrown again.
Sharon
She giggled and just watched them. Tsareena picked up the stick once it was brought back and threw it. She threw it pretty far, out of their sight, but Eléc would still be able to find it. Summer softly clapped when it was thrown, and Tsareena put her hands on her hips, proud of herself.
George
Eléc did a little doggo gasp and bolted after the stick, yipping exictedly as it went to go find it. Calem was incredibly amazed, if not a little embarrassed that he couldn't do as well.

"Th... That was v... Very impressive Tsareena.."
Sharon
*"Tsa!"* She made a sound that seemed like she was most likely thanking him for the compliment. Summer turned back in the direction of the water. She stared at it for a few seconds before frowning slightly and looking down. "Mm.."
George
The ravenette looked over at his blonde companion, tilting his head a little as he sat beside her.

"M... Mon ami?..A... Are you alright?.."

He asked, concern laced in his voice as he brought his knees to his chest.
Sharon
She snapped back to reality once she heard his voice and she looked over to him and smiled. "Mm hm! I'm just... Thinking about some stuff.." She scratched the back of her head nervously.
George
"Is there... A..Alot going on in your mind?.."

He asked softly, resting his chin on his knees as he kept his gaze to her. He was genuinely worried about his friend, so he wanted to do what he could to make them feel better.

"I... It may not seem like it b... But I'm pretty good to talk to about these sorts of things... S..Sorry if that sounds self-absorbed.."
Sharon
Her smile faded away and she closed her eyes and sighed. "Th-The Nightmare I was having... My parents they... They wanted to take me back... They hated me because I wasn't up to their standards... They wanted a powerful and confident girl who could take over the family business... But I'm not any of those things... I'm weak and shy... But, ever since I became an Elite 4, I feel like that weak and shy part of me started fading away... But... I don't want to go back... I just feel like they'll use me for fame and money and once they're satisfied... They'll throw me away like a crumpled up piece of paper..." Her voice broke and she could feel her eyes watering, she felt like such a burden, this is why she doesn't talk, she doesn't want to say things that make people feel like she's just seeking attention, or accidently spill things that'll make people pity her. She stared at the ground and a tear fell from her eyes and into her lap.
George
Calem listened intently as Summer said about ber worries and her nightmare, sighing softly he went over and sat infront if her, gently holding her chin up with his hand as he gave a small smile.

"P... People won't use you, I won't let them a... And if you don't want to go back, you don't have to.. You're your own person, a... A kind, thoughtful, beautiful and sweet person... A..A person I'd gladly risk my life for.."

He then hugged her a little bit tightly, wiping her tears away with the back of his sleeve.

"You're very special, m... Mon ami... I wish I could be h... Half as great as you.."
Sharon
She listened to him say these words to her and she froze when he hugged her. She felt... Happy, she didn't want the moment to end. She wrapped her arms around him and also hugged him, burying her face into his neck. "..I'm not special... B-but you... You... You're perfect.."
George
The boy shook his head, still softly hugging her as his tone was hushed and gentle as it usually was. That was supposedly one good thing about having such a quiet tone and a meek personality, it never felt like he was forcing himself to be kind to others.

"O... Oh no, I... I'm nowhere near perfect... Th... There are so many people who are way more talented than me, w... Who are so clever, brave a... And kind like you.. I'll never be as good as them.."
Sharon
"Y-You shouldn't say that about yourself... You're great!" She looked up at him, with her arms still wrapped around him. "You're sweet, kind, funny, handsom-" She stopped herself after that last word and her face got red. "I mean- Attractive- No- I mean.." She buried her face into his shoulder, trying to hide her flustered face.
George
He froze at her compliments, his face going completely red as he shook a little. When he saw how flustered she was however, he smiled softly and rubbed the back of her head, giggling a little.

"Merci mon ami... Y.. You're rather cute too.." ,
Sharon
She lifted her head off his shoulder and gazed into his eyes. "I-I am..?" She smiled at him. Tsareena was standing a few feet behind Summer, but still in Calem's vision. She put her hands to her... Lips(?) and motioned her hands towards Summer, trying to tell him to do something, but what could it be ***HMmMmM***
George
"Oui.."

He said with a soft smile, looking over at the Tsareena and tilting his head a little. Moving Summer a little bit away from him, he put both of his hands on her lips and looked back at the Pokémon.

***Oof-***
Sharon
Her eyes widened and she blushed and giggled. Tsareena facepalmed and walked into the woods, coming back a few moments later while dragging Eléc with her. She set him down and quickly pressed her lips(?) against his. Then motioned to the two of them like she was saying, *'Do that.'*
George
The Manectric barked angrily when it was kissed, jumping into the lake to clean itself. Calem's cheeks flushed and he looked away, not quite sure on what to do. What if she didn't want to? What if she hated him afterwards? The mere thought of losing the one friend he had made him shake, looking back at the girl and exhaling sharply. 

Grabbing her shoulders, he pulled her towards him and kissed her, his arms and hands still shaking from all the internal worrying.
Sharon
Tsareena "Barked" Back at him, making it sound abit more intimidating and angry. *'Dog breath..'* The Pokemon thought to herself. She watched the two of them and smiled, before following Eléc to the lake to clean herself aswell.


Summer's eyes widened when she was kissed and she tensed up, but after a few seconds she relaxed and placed one of her hands ontop of his.
George
Calem then pulled away, shaking as blush covered near enough every inch of him. Shaking quite alot, he let go of her and brought his knees to his chest, putting his arms over his head and whimpering.

"I... I'm s... Sorry... Pl... Please don't... Please don't h... Hate me.."
Sharon
She took a moment to process what just happened. Snapping back to reality once she heard his whimpering. "H-Hate you? Never..!" She gently moved one of his arms off of his head and held his hand. "I... I actually kind of liked it.." She was also blushing quite a lot.
George
He looked up at her, sniffling a little bit as he rubbed his eyes with his free hand.

"B... But... I..I just... I.."

Eléc poked it's head out of the lake, unsure on why it's trainer was so red. Were they hurt? Did something happen to them? Doggo was concerned about the flustered and anxious boy, giving a soft whine.
Sharon
She scooted next to him and turned his head towards her and placed a hand on his cheek. "Shh... It's okay.." She gave him a warm smile. "I don't hate you, and I don't know what could make me hate you.."
George
He put both of his hands on hers, small tears rolling down his cheeks and onto her hand. His greyish-blue eyes were glossy from his quiet crying, he shook a little bit more before hugging her tightly.

"I... I don't th... Think I'm good enough f... For someone like you.."
Sharon
She wiped his tears away with her fingers and when he hugged her, she hugged him back with her cheek resting on his shoulder. "No... You're not good enough for me... You're perfect..
George
"N... No.. I'm not.."

Calem calmed down slowly, hugging her softly as his mopping wet Manectric waddled over and layed across his lap, whining as it licked it's trainer's arm to try and make them feel better.

"S... Sorry..."
Sharon
She giggled and let go of him. "So... Is there anything else you'd like to do..?" Tsareena just snuck up behind Summer and reached for her belt and pressed the button on a Pokeball and went back inside.
George
Eléc shook itself off whilst on it's trainers lap, snuffling it's snoot into Calem's satchel before it booped it's pokéball and returned itself. Looking over at Summer, the noirette gave a little shrug.

"I... I don't mind.."
Sharon
She thought to herself for a moment. "I mean... We can go to the pool and swim... I-I mean... We *Could* Swim here, but uhm.." She didn't want to admit it, but she's scared of swimming in lakes, she doesn't know why, she's just fine swimming in the ocean and in pools, but swimming in lakes terrify her.
George
"I... I don't think it's a good idea to swim in a lake.."

The ravenette mumbled, rubbing the back of his head nervously before looking back at her. He didn't mind that she was a bit uneasy at the thought of swimming in a lake, it would of been a bit odd anyway.

"Uhm... S..Sure, we can go to the pool..."
