Pokémon Ship Week Day 6! Today's prompt is Firsts. Enjoy your Vanivilleshipping!
His heart was pounding so hard in his chest he swore it was a Pangoro using Mega Punch. It was another day in Vanville. The whole gang was there. Calem, Tierno, Shauna, himself, and Serena. It was a wonderful auburn day, with the leaves falling off of the tree. He had his gift for her in his bag. He wanted to gift it to her, but consistently, he’d find a perfectly good moment to propose… and then he’d swallow his tongue. We were all having such a good time, he thought. He didn’t want to ruin the mood, maybe make it awkward by asking her out on a date or something only to have her turn him down. The friend dynamic that brought them together was now betraying him. This would be ironic if his brain would let him think of such a thing.
“So then, I tell him, no, not electric, Eelektross!” Calem’s joke was a home run with the group, making the others double over in laughter. And Trevor was so busy having chicken skin he didn’t even notice the joke. Calem gave him a playful shoulder nudge to snap him out of it, but he felt the light dampness on his skin.
“Woah, Trevs, you okay?” He gripped the brim of his hat as he spoke to his friend. Trevor just nodded.
“Y-yeah, perfectly fine. Sorry, I was uh, thinking about Pokedex stuff.” He stammered back.
Calem just smiled, but Tierno couldn’t help but get a quip in. “You’re looking kinda sweaty, bro. Maybe if you got a different haircut you’d ventilate a bit better.”
Tierno laughed, but Serena came in for Trevor’s defense. “Aw, lay off of him a bit. His hair style is cute and fashionable, you know.”
Trevor swore that every vein in his heart clutched for just a second. Cute?! Then… maybe there really was a feeling being reciprocated?! Wait, is she just being nice? No, there’s no way, right?!
“Here Trevor.” Shauna handed him a handkerchief. “Wipe yourself down! I’d hate to see your sweater get stained.”
“T-thanks Shauna.” He patted himself dry, and sighed happily. He was glad he at least had one friend to make this a bit easier.
“Hey guys,” Calem began to speak again, checking his watch as he adjusted the sleeve of his blue jumpsuit. “I gotta make a call with Sycamore. Break here for a bit?”
“Sure, I’ll go practice my dance moves over there.” Tierno hopped out.
“I’ll go use the restroom. Be right back!” Shauna scurried off. Calem nodded, gripping his hat as he moved out to make his call. That left Trevor and Serena together.
She sat on the stone planter, in her usual attire. Stylish red hat with shades. Red skirt. Black top. And he was just Trevor. He sighed deeply as her eyes seemed to gaze off into nothing. He scooted close to her, and before he could clear his voice, his hand accidentally brushed against her hip, making her turn her head quickly to face him. He was paralyzed, staring right back at her eyes. Her face went from neutral to a slight smile.
“You look like you’ve had something to say since we all agreed to meet up here.” Serena just giggled. Trevor’s heart fluttered. He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. With a silent nod, he reached into his bag and pulled out a heart-shaped box. With a flick of his wrist, he opened it up, and Serena went wide-eyed.
It was an assortment of Sweet Hearts. Some were plain. Some were covered in sprinkles. One was even drizzled with white chocolate; Serena’s favorite. But it was as obvious to anyone that this was Trevor’s way of confessing his love to her. Each chocolate was immaculately pressed and laid into the box. Normally, someone can only get one of these once a day in Camphrier Town, so to have a whole set meant that Trevor was dedicated. Serena’s mouth curled into a soft shape, and a blush came across her cheeks.
“Trevor…” She took the Sweet Heart box into her lap and smiled brightly. “I… I don’t even know what to say.”
He sighed, thinking this is a good sign so far. But he couldn’t help and say it.
“I love you, Serena.”
She turned to him and smiled back. She brought a hand up and began to place it on his thick head of hair, her thumb and fingertips massaging his scalp.
“...I love you too, Trevor.”
“R-Really?!” He almost burst with his response, before clutching his hands to his mouth. This just made Serena giggle. She was not oblivious to how fanciful she looked; she must’ve made Trevor extremely nervous with her style and grace, she thought.
“Yeah. Yes. I mean it. But why tell me now, hm? Why not sooner?”
“...I was always so intimidated. I always thought that maybe you’d, you know, have feelings for someone else, like Calem, or I dunno, Grant or something. And then I didn’t say anything. I almost didn’t even say it today because I was afraid of, you know, making things awkward.”
“Were you afraid I was going to turn you down?”
“I was afraid to hear you say you were taken. But then my mind thought, that if you were taken, I’d rather find out than let the thoughts just rot in my brain. So…here I am.”
The two stared at each other after he let his mind speak.
“Do you like the Sweet He-”
Before he could finish his question, he felt a warmth on his lips. She kissed him. Eyes closed, a hand on his shoulder. He stopped trying to speak. He just closed his eyes and felt her taste on his lips too. His first kiss. Eventually she’d pull back with a giggle and a wink.
“I’m sure I’ll love them, but I’d rather share them with you, Trevor~.” Serena winked yet again. “I’ll save these for later once the rest are gone. Then you and I can have our first date. What do you say?”
Trevor smiled in earnest for the first time today. He nodded, and the two scooted up to each other on the planter, hands holding each other as their fingers intertwined.

The next pic in this series, featuring a canon character and various fankids for that character, made by different people across the fandom. Serena is the subject of this one and due to the sheer number of amazing fankids people have made for her, it was tricky to narrow down who I wanted to draw. My adult design for Serena is in the middle, based on gameverse rival!Serena. The fankids in a roughly clockwise direction starting from the top left are...
@pkmnnovareset‘s Leaf/Serena son, Ali
@pkmngame-fankids‘s Shauna/Serena daughter, Kierra
@whats-ahead‘s Calem/Serena daughter, Elise
@unmeiverse-nextadventures‘s Emma/Serena daughter, Eva
@theroadyouchoose‘s Clemont/Serena daughter, Arianne
my Trevor/Serena younger daughter, Lotte
@pkmn-downtheline‘s Clemont/Serena son, Louvel
@pkmn-their-journey-continues‘s Clemont/Serena daughter, Eloise
@mysticspkmnfankids‘s Ash/Serena daughter, Veronica
@pokemon-legends-and-legacies‘s Calem/Serena daughter, Aurélie
@endlesshighway-pkmn‘s Ash/Serena daughter, Angelique
@pkmn-nextgenadventures‘s Shauna/Serena daughter, Maddie
my Trevor/Serena older daughter, Trish
Dawn | Serena

Day 05 OTP Challenge - Kissing
Pairing: TrevorSerena (Vanivilleshipping)
-
'Oh no ohnonono.'
Trevor says to himself as his Raichu sped by, knocking Serena and him over. With his quick thinking, he wraps his arms around Serena, adjusting himself to shield her from the sudden fall and closes his eyes before the impact.
They both land on the ground, their bodies sprawl over one another. Trevor swears he felt something soft brush up against his lips, but by the time he cracks an eye open all he sees is a sea of brown hair.
He remains stock still on the dirt road, catching his breathe, all the while ignoring the hint of berry shampoo with each breath he takes. It isn't until the mass of brown hair beings to lift up and Serena is staring back down on him. He knows his face is red as her lips beginning to curl into a smile and she lets out a chuckle; at his reaction or the fall he is not sure except he does know his face and ears are turning all the more warmer.
Many blubbering apologies and untangling limbs later, they are up and he is profusely apologizing, again, all the while asking "Are you ok, Serena?" and "Are you sure you are ok?", and giving his Raichu a scolding once the large rodent noticed their predicament.
After putting his Pokemon back in his pokeball a giggle brings his attention and Trevor turns, looking up to see her smile at him again, thanking him before bending down to kiss his cheek.
Blinking dazed and confused, he missed whatever Serena said next as she gently took his hand and pulled him towards the small red cafe.
When he finally comes to his senses they were already inside the cafe, their hands still intertwined. He feels himself reddening again and he stares at their hands for a moment and watches as her hand squeezes his. He looks back up at her rosey face and suddenly he doesn't care if his face is as red as a Fletching's or smiling goofly as he leans forward to place a small peck on her lips.
