Chapter Text
It had been a month since Ash had become world monarch and to be fair the stress had been getting to him, He had been traveling the regions performing matches with strong trainers and meeting his old traveling partners and is currently staying in a villa in the Alola region, It turns out that Ash had shit loads of money, by the time he reached Unova he had a grand total of 725k Pokedollars and when he became would champion he had 2.5 million meaning he could have a Mansion in every region, and so he did.
“Well Pikachu look how far we’ve come.”
“Pika pii!.” Ash was lying on a bathing chair, Pikachu on an identical one next to him
“Do you ever feel a bit empty knowing we have everything.” Pikachu turned his head towards his trainer; he knew his trainer was having a hard time and the only time he could relax was when he was alone, with friends or battling. But he didn’t get to do any of those much, mainly press conferences and meet’n greets.
“Pika..” answered Pikachu a sad tone in his voice, his pinap juice laying forgotten on a small table, the Alola breeze blowing gently in his yellow fur.
“Aaash!!” a female voice sounded through his villa; Ash turned his head to see who it was. A young woman around 17 walked onto the balcony with green hair in two long strands, Mallow, Ash had hired her to be his personal chef since he didn’t trust any other chefs. “Are you hungry?”
“Yeh, could you make some lunch please?”
“Aaand do you want some Pikachu?”
“Piiiikaa!!”
“I’ll be back with your food soon.”
The girl marched away into the villa to prepare lunch. Ash took a sip of his Pinap juice, Pikachu copying him.
“Look Pikachu it’s Kiawe’s Charizard!” the two of them waved at the flying dragon, the figure on top waving back. “You see Pikachu not that much has changed right?”
“Lunch is ready!!!” Mallow called out. Ash rose from his chair and wondered into the kitchen Pikachu following him. On the table was two large plates, one had large rice balls with a side of noodles and meat, the other was filleted fish with a large streak of ketchup and rice.
“Thanks Mallow!”
“Pika!”
“Well, that’s what you pay me for!” Mallow winked “Oh yeh your assistant told me to remind you that tomorrow we have a flight to your Villa in sinnoh for a meeting with Cynthia, Steven and Alder to discuss plans for a renovation for battle institutes in Unova, Sinnoh and Hoenn.” Mallow smiled “And I will go ingredient shopping in Jubilife city because Dawn told me you really enjoy the meet and sweets from there.”
Ash grinned; he loved sinnoh there was just something about Sinnoh that calmed him, the rivers and waterfalls calmed him, he could sit there for hours listening to the ripples of water. Mallow looked at Ash, she knew that something had been bugging him recently, but she couldn’t figure it out.
“Thanks for reminding me, Mallow I don’t know what I would do without you.”
“PIIKAA!”
“What is it Pikachu!?” Ash and Mallow asked
Pikachu jumped onto the table and started frantically pointing at the front door “PIKA PIKA PIII!!”
Ash stood up and walked to the door opening it to see a large crowd gathered at the front gate trying to get into the estate
“IT’S ASH KETCHUM!!!”
“I LOVE YOU!!”
“MARRY ME PLEASE!!”
“SIGN MY HAT!!”
Mallow peaked her head around the door
“Ash what’s going on?”
The crowd gasped
“ASH HAS A GIRLFRIEND!!”
“ASH HOW COULD YOU I THOUGHT WHAT WE HAD WAS SPECIAL!!”
“CAN I HAVE FEET PICS?!”
Mallow frowned, she now understood how Ash feels whenever he goes outside, of anyway for that matter.
“She isn’t my girlfriend!! Please calm down! Why are you all at my house!!?”
The crowd erupted into shouts and screams, forcing Ash and Mallow to run back into the mansion.
