Reika and Charles were, of corse, finding a place to train, they pasted many shops, then took a quick break infront of one of those shops that Reika doesn't like to go into. (hehehehe XD)
Ooc: XDD hope that works for yeah. =D

Ooc: XD Alright...
Charles sat down on a bench in front of Emma's Family-Made Dresses. "Odd place..." Charles whispered, dismissing it in an instant. The dresses inside, of course, made him quickly think of the ball, which he knew was just around the corner. I don't feel like telling her---I can't. Wouldn't even have it in me to ask... Again, he just dismissed everything. That is, until an old woman, Emma, stepped out of the front door.
"Ah, the both of ya look as though yer lookin' for a nice new dress! For the ball, I imagine." Charles, having just thought of that moment before, shook his head violently, trying not to let Reika see him doing so. "Charles?" The woman glared, "Charles Emerson??" The woman tilted her head in honor. "It's a pleasure to see ya again, sir."
As she bowed, Charles couldn't help turn to Reika with a slight blush. "Errr...we should go...now..." He grasped Reika's hand with his own, stood up, and tried to pull her away from 'Emma' and the large, old shop front.

"A... Ball?" Reika asked, shock written all over her face. I never knew that a ball was coming up... Yikes! She thought, as soon as Charles grabbed her hand to leave, her face turned as red as a beet's root.

The crazy woman known as Emma grabbed Reika's other arm, pulling back, "Nonsense, Charles! I know you and your girlfriend want to go to the ball together." As soon as she said 'girlfriend,' Charles' face turned scarlet and he let go of Reika, allowing Emma to pull her towards her.
"She's not my girlfriend." He glared towards her, upset by Emma's extrovert personality. "But thanks," he rolled his eyes sarcastically. "Yes, Reika, there's a ball coming up...and apparently Emma thinks we are going together, so, what the Hell?" He rubbed the back of his head, smiling widely, "Would you go with me?"

"Well jeez, I would, but I. Do. Not. Wear. Dresses." Reika growled, pulling her hand away from the old woman.
Ooc: Ohmi, sorry for the shortness, I'm working on a new site. XD

Ooc: That's alright. XD
Charles raised an eyebrow, as did Emma. "Well what d'ya mean, child, ev'ry girl should where a dress at times!" With a smirk, she grabbed her wrist again and pulled her inside the building, which actually suprised Charles.
"Wait, what're you doing?" He followed, wondering what would actually happen if Emma didn't listen to Reika. "I recommend not getting on her bad side, Emma...really..."

Reika sighed, being dragged in by Emma. "I don't want to wear a dress, really, don't make me!" Reika pleaded, sweatdropping. "I'll even give you money if you don't make me put on a dress!" Reika was very, very despreate now.

"Nonsense, dear!" The woman told her with a shrill tone to her voice, "It'd be for the best..." And she waltzed on over to the front desk where another woman was standing. "She needs a dress, Jenn, a nice one, at that." The woman, Jenn, nodded and pulled Reika into another room.
Charles, having followed all the way, knew that he could not follow into the next room. It's the fitting room. (XD I dunno.)

After a few minutes of finding the right dress, Reika now was wearing a dark, nearly navy blue dress with spagetti straps, the dress was just below the knees. "It's... not half bad." Reika mumbled, looking at herself in the fitting room's mirror.
Ooc: There, all I can come up with. -sweatdrops anime style-

Ooc: Awesome. XD
Bic:
Charles looked down at his watch, noticing that it'd been awhile. She seems somewhat picky with dresses... He glanced around, waiting for her to come out of the fitting room. ((Shortness...XD))

Ooc: I can be shorter. CX
Bic: After making sure everything was alright, Emma pushed Reika out of the room. "..." Reika glared at Emma before walking over to Charles. "I'm not paying her, she forced me." She mumbled.

"No need to pay me---I already owe young Charles here quite a bit." She smiled and patted him on the back. "Got me out of a tight spot, his family did." She nodded again and pushed Reika along. "Don't worry about it..."
"We told you that it was no problem. We didn't really need it...The money, I mean. It's over. In the past. Done." He stared up at her, "So I can pay you."
"No, no, no. without you there to persuade your parents, I'd be sitting in the poor house because of my businesses' debt. So thanks, sir. Thank you, much." She tilted her head again in a bow.
"Fine, then." He rolled his eyes and looked back at Reika. "Looks wonderful, by the way. I could never imagine you in such a beautiful dress..." Realizing just how he said that, he rubbed his head and rephrased. "I meant to say that...err...I could never imagine such a beautiful young wom---" He cut off there, "It looks nice..." He looked down at the ground and kicked at it with his right foot.
Emma was grinning the entire time, having understood what he meant. "I think she get's it, Charles. Just keep your mouth shut now!" She slapped his back, which eminated with a loud, shrill noise.

Reika rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah, I get your point Charles." She mumbled, trying to hide her blush. Then she swiftly walked back into the fitting room, changing back into her normal outfit.
Once she finnaly got back out, she asked, "So... When is the ball?" She asked, still not very excited toward the subject.

"The ball is, well," Charles gulped, "Tomorrow night." With a smile he stepped backwards away from Reika, whom he'd hoped wouldn't explode with the short 'dead-line.' "I have to go home and get my suit, but that's it." He chuckled and turned his attention back to Emma. "Thanks again, it's been a pleaure. And Reika, we should get going. There's still some more training to do."

Reika rolled her eyes yet again when he said 'Tomorrow night'. "Yeah, sure, lets get going." She mumbled, grabbing her dress, which she put in her bag (that can fit anything in it XD). "Y'know Charles, if I keep rolling my eyes, their going to fall outta my head?" She said sarcasticly before saying a 'thanks' to Emma and walking out the door.

Charles followed outside, right behind Reika. In a moment, he caught up and was then walking alongside her. "How about we go to the 'Park for training? It's a lot closer than that old Gym. And there's more room, too. Might be easier." He shrugged, containing his energy about the upcoming ball.

"Sure." Reika replied. "And we can have a double battle this time, if you want, I'll need to train two pokemon at once." She added on, thinking of a battle stratagy.

Ooc: I have to bring Feebas to the Crystal, so it'll be a moment. XD I can reply now, though.
Bic:
Charles nodded in agreement as Reika spoke, "I have to train a couple of my Pokémon, too. They seem somewhat far behind the others. But hey, either of us will win that Gym battle, so there's no need to worry, right?" He chuckled, turning into the entrace of the Pokémon Park.

Reika followed closely behind. "Good point." She said, then spotted a good place to battle. It was lined with Cherry Trees (that were still in tact XD) and the Field part was big enough to battle on. "Hey, Charles, over here." She said, walking over to the spot she found. "Here's a good place to battle." She said, releasing Cloyst and Jackie.
Ooc: I just got a random idea, but you don't have to follow. Charles asked where Reika got the Flaaffy, she says she got it as an early birthday present from her grandmother, then Charles freaks out because he wants to buy her something. XDDD

Ooc: Good idea....okay! xD
Bic:
Charles turned quickly, spotting the great area. "Nice...good environment, a breeze, and hey! A fountain!" He nodded, remembering the Feebas that he just got for his own present. "Woah..." He noticed her Flaaffy, "Where'd you get that?" He smiled, releasing his new Feebas and his Vulpix.

"Jackie... I got her as an early birthday present from my Grandma." Reika said, then walked over to one side of the battle feild, Jackie and Cloyst infront of her.

Charles stared for a moment, realizing he'd never asked for her birthdate. "Your...birthday?" His eye twitched. Mental not: buy Reika something nice... "When is your birthday, Reika?" He inquired, walking to his side of the battle field before hearing an answer from her. "And what do you want for it?"
