Dedication: To everyone with a special someone, and to those who are still searching. Worry, do not. You will find them. It takes time. After Misty met back up with Sammy, Cassie, Ashley, and Sammy's friends, everyone heard the booming announcement. Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen. The talent show will be starting in a few minutes. To all the contestants, please report back stage to prepare for your talent. Misty squealed and ran for the backstage. As Misty ran towards the back stage, she felt a hand grab her arm. She swung her head around to see who would make a gesture. Gary: Misty, I have to tell you something. Misty: Gary, not now. I have to get ready. Gary: Misty, come on. I really love you. Misty: Gary, you know I don't like you like that. I like someone else. Gary: *beep* you Ash! Gary stormed off as Ash went up to Misty. Ash: Good luck tonight Misty. I know you'll do really good. Misty: *blushes slightly* Thanks Ash. That means alot to me. Ash: *blushing madly* No problem. What're friends for? Misty: 'To fall in love with one another?' To help each other whenever they can. Ash: *sigh* Well, I just have one more thing to give you. Misty: Really, Ash? You don't have to. Ash: But, I want to..... Within the blink of a Ekan's eyes, Ash was standing in front of Misty. He was looking down at her ocean eyes as she was looking up into his sea of chocolate eyes. Ash: I got this at a jewelry store. They said it'll bring luck to the person who wears it. Ash brought out a beautiful necklace. The string was of leather dyed a light blue. The medallion resembled a small, never-ending flame (i have a necklace similar to this one i just described, it's suppose to be meaning never ending or never giving up). He put it on around her neck, and made sure it was clipped on all the way. He stepped back to get a better look. Ash: I knew it'd look beautiful on you. Now hurry up and go back stage. You'll do fine. Misty: Thanks. It's really beautiful. See ya in a bit. Ash: Ok! Misty walked towards the stage. She pushed back the purple velvet curtain, thinking that Violet must have decorated the place...since her favorite color is purple. She met up with all of her friends that she came here with. A guy came up to her dressed in black pants, black shoes, and a navy blue t-shirt with "Crew" on the front. Man: Are you Misty Waterflower? Misty: Yes. Man: You're on first. Misty: ().() Man: It's pre-jitters. You'll be ok with that good luck necklace. Misty: Yes, thank you. He walked away calling out numerous other names. She walked over to another guy whom she was led to before the other guy walked off. He pinned back a couple curls that fell loosely over her face and re-did her make-up, asking who could do such a lousy job of make-up. After she was all "prettied up", she listened carefully at the person or persons on stage. She peered through the curtains and looked to see who was on stage that could cause such rowdiness in the crowd..... Lily: Welcome to the Talent Show! *Loud cheering and one or two booing's which were quickly shut up* Violet: Thank you all for coming. We have numerous people backstage getting ready to put on what we think.... Daisy: Correction Violet, we KNOW...... Violet: Oh how silly of me...*giggle* We KNOW this is going to be one of the best shows. We have a lot to see, so let's get going with our first contestant. She's been writing this song with us since the day she met a guy and would like to express her love for this man. Daisy, Lily, Violet: Please give it up for our sister, Misty Waterflower. People clapped fairly loud for her. She walked on stage in the most gracious way possible. Ash looked around him and seen a large number of guys whistling and drooling. He didn't have much room to complain. He couldn't take his eyes off of her. She looked absolutely beautiful. The way her dress flowed ever so gently behind her as she walked.....no, glided across the wooden stage. She walked up to the mike, and took it into her sweaty hands. Misty: Hi, I'm Misty. I wrote this song for my best friend who I hope has the same feelings. She listened as her music came on, closed her eyes, and sang her heart's desires. Out here in the quiet of the night Beneath the stars, and moon. We both know we've got something on our minds We won't admit, but it's true. You look at me, I look away. I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, but I don't know how to start. I wanna tell you but now I'm afraid, that you might break my heart Oh, why should anything so easy ever be so hard to do? I wanna tell you what I'm feeling and to say that, I love you. I practice all the things that I can say. Line by line, every word. I tell myself, "Today could be the day." But everytime, I lose my nerve. I look at you, you look away. I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, but I don't know how to start. I wanna tell you but now I'm afraid, that you might break my hear Oh, why should anything so easy ever be so hard to do? I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, and to say that, I love you. Why? Why do you turn away? It must be, you're afraid like me. I try, but I can't pretend that I don't feel for you, the way I do. Can't you see? I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, but I don't know how to start. I wanna tell you but now I'm afraid, that you might break my hear Oh, why should anything so easy ever be so hard to do? I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, and to say that, I love you. I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, but I don't know how to start. I wanna tell you but now I'm afraid, that you might break my hear Oh, why should anything so easy ever be so hard to do? I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, and to say that, I love you. As the music faded away, everyone clapped madly shouting "Encore!". Misty couldn't resist blushing so hard. She searched the crowd to find Ash, and there he was. Right there, in the front row, beaming up at her. She gave a soft smile back. He suddenly felt this impulse to do something. He jumped up on stage, and did the last thing ANYONE could expect.... ~~~ Ooh, what did he do? lol. I hope this was ok. I won't be updating as much as I used to. I have a lot of homework almost everyday. Well, gotta go. Catch ya later! ~a couple of doves (i almost put mistyandash4ever. anyone like this one better than mistyandash4ever? review plz!!!)
