          Riddel’s P.O.V

     It was a fair Saturday night. All my friends were at the Poetry Confession. Poetry Confession is a nightclub where there is dancing, celebrating, poetry contests, dance contests, prize drawings and much more. I sat in at a table with Ash, Misty, Brock, May, Max and my friends Amy and Sarah. My poem; it was a scheme. I know there would practically be death, but I couldn’t resist reciting it here. In front of all these people!!!

“So Misty,” I yelled over the music, “How’s everything been going?”

“Everything is pretty good,” she yelled back.

“Whadda about you Ash?” I asked.

“Okay. I caught a Corphish,” he bragged, stupidly.

“You told us that story twice on our way over here, Ash,” Max screamed.

“Oh yeah! Hehe,” He guffawed.

“Ash, you’re so annoying sometimes,” Misty said, putting her hand on her forehead.

“No I’m not,” he shot back.

“Yes you are,” May added, nodding her head and sipping on her latté. Ash and Misty started fighting. I pointed back and forth at Ash and Misty to Sarah and Amy. I faked to sigh and fluttered my eyelids. Both of my friends cracked up. Amy’s diet-coke flew out of her nose, distracting Ash and Misty from their fight. May looked over and her latté almost came out of her nose as well.

“What’s so funny,” Misty asked, her face flushed from screaming.

“It’s obvious Misty. It’s your face,” Ash said, rudely.

“Shut up,” screamed Misty, bashing Ash on top of his head.

“Ouch!! Who are you and were am I?” Ash asked, after the bash.

“Guys, guys, guys… Come on, we’re here on a break,” Brock said. He looked over on the dance floor.

“I see hot girls calling out my name. Later guys.” Brock hopped up to the dance floor.

“Oblivious, isn’t he,” Amy asked, wiping her nose.

“Yep,” May said.

“Ya just realized that, May?” Asked Max.

“Shut up, kiddo,” May commanded. Max retaliated angrily.

“I’m not a kiddo!! I know more about Pokèmon than you ever will, stupid,” yelled Max.

“Whatever!!! You need ta stop lookin’ at them books so much and have fun. Go dance like a monkey or something Max,” She said and pushed him over to the dance floor.

“Hey, hey, hey, hey, heeeeyyy,” screamed Max, almost dropping his PokèNav. The dance music stopped and on came a slow song. Amy got up and went to the counter and ordered a drink. She did that every time a slow song came on. Never wanted to dance ever since Jack dumped her.

“Hey Riddel,” Sarah said, “How are you going to handle the poem?”

“Well, I know she’s gonna try to kill me, so, earlier I asked the manager to make sure the alarm didn’t go off when I ran out of the emergency exit.” Sarah tilted her head.

“You know that I’m gonna hafta RLH.” Sarah nodded. Amy sat her drink down, and went to sit on her chair.

“Shhh,” Sarah muttered to me. She pulled the chair out from under Amy’s rear before she sat down. Amy fell down. Ash, Misty, May, Sarah and I all cracked up. As soon as we silenced, Amy started to laugh. Whew, am I glad she’s okay!

“Humor; always a good thing.” I looked behind me to see who was speaking. Jack.

“Oh, hi Jack,” I said nervously.

“Mind if I sit down with you guys?” He asked.

“Go ahead. Knock ya self out. Whatever ya wanna say.” Jack sat down beside Max in the chair that Brock had been in.

“And Jack: please don’t be talking in Al Bhed, if ya get my drift,” I said, warning him. He just laughed.

“So… would you care to introduce me to your friends.” Amy introduced them.

“Okie dokie then.” A man stepped on stage, up to the microphone.

“Welcome to Poetry Confessions, ladies and gents! We have some very poetic folks here tonight. First up, Ashley Simpson!!!” Ashley stepped up on stage and sniffed.

“My poem is called attack.”

Attack of the 50-foot pigeon

It pooped on my foot

Not just a smidgeon

Looks like white soot

 

Attack of the 50-foot piano

Dropped a key on my head

My name is Liano

I need to be fed

 

The whole room was silent.

“BWAUGHAHAHAHAH!!!” Someone busted out laughing, followed by the whole room. Poor Ashley was crying. But it was her fault for making a stupid poem.

“Oh my god… That was really… interesting,” said the man on stage, laughing at Ashley. All right. Next up is,” he said, looking at his list, “Sarah Ashley.” The room cheered.

“Go Sarah!!!” Amy yelled.

“Woo,” Jack and I screamed.

“This poem is called Amy.”

 

Blonde and witty

She’s all you want in a friend

She’s quite pretty

Whenever you have a trouble, she’ll help you mend

 

Amy “Nicole” Quigley

Her hair is not squiggly

With black fabric on her quick write

She never causes a fight

 

The majority cheered.

“Amen to that,” I yelled, laughing. The man stepped up to the mic once again.

“Who wants to take a break from poetry for I while. I do. Alright, lets get some music again Ernie!” The DJ nodded and put a record on the turn table.

“Hey, Riddel! Come on let’s dance! I’m getting bored,” said Misty. Misty, Amy, Sarah and I all got in our little group and started dancing.

“Riddel tells me that you fell for Ash, Misty,” said Amy. I nervously smiled at Misty and she gave me an evil look.

“Heyck no,” Misty said with a twang. Yeah right. Everyone knows you love him but him. I snorted. Sarah looked at me.

“Pig much?” She asked, stupidly. I shook my head laughing. The song stopped abruptly, and a slow song came on. We all sat back down.

“Boy, they gotta ruin all our fun by putting a slow song on,” Amy joked, rolling her eyes.

“Hey Riddel, wanna dance? As friends?” Asked Jack quickly.

“Sure,” I said too enthusiastically. Amy looked at me, with the look of revenge in her eyes. Crud. I forgot she still likes him. I was planning to talk to him about Amy when we were dancing. He put his hands on my waist and I hung my hands over his back.

“So, Jack. Why’d you dump Amy?” I asked, tilting my head.

“Cos she stood me up at the dance.” I rolled my eyes angrily.

“You’re a moron. She had to work on stuff for-“

“Really? I thought she was just being a bit-“

“No. She’s not one of them. Most of the time. She still likes you ya know? Why don’t you dance with her the next song and at the end of the night, give her a kiss an’ ask her out.” Jack looked at me, sternly.

“Sure it’ll work?” I nodded my head and smiled.

“I’ve never had a relationship, but it doesn’t mean I’m stupid. I’ve seen enough movies and helped Ella with her boyfriends. Trust me, Jack,” I said. I liked Jack a lot but I knew Amy would kill me if he asked me out or something. I was trying to quit, and it was partly working. The slow song stopped and another one began.

“Now go do it, man,” I said with a sly smile on my face. I sat down and decided to enjoy the ride. Both Jack and Amy were blushing, extremely bad. I saw Amy smile and look over at me happily. I gave her thumbs up and winked.

“Hey, did yaaa set them up,” Ash asked. I smiled.

“Yep.”

“Boy that was really smooth, Riddel,” Misty said, sipping on her tea. I smiled, shut my eyes and stuck out my tongue at her.

“Hey,” May said, “You looked like Brock there for a sec!” We all started laughing. Brock was still on the dance floor, looking for a girlfriend. As the song ended, the man came back on stage.

“Aaaaaaaalllriiiightyyy. We didn’t have many volunteers for the night, so here’s da last performer, our very own: Riddel Johnson!!!!!” I hopped upstage.

“How ya doin’ tonight?” Everyone cheered and I smiled.

“My poem is called The One Who Was Dense. Oh and BTW, its free verse. No rhyme scheme. If ya thinking

‘Hey waitta minute this girl’s poem ain’t been rhyming’ after I said this, you’re obviously drunk or was talking.” I stuck my chin out and eyeballed everyone.

“Just kiddin’ folks.” I began reciting my poem.

 

I have a friend

Who fell in love with an idiot

She was quite enamored

With that dense fool

 

He was so dense

That if she said “Hi!”

He would look at her

And say “Who are you?”

 

And he always called her scrawny

Then she would hit him

Beating him up

Was the only way to hide her love


Her name was Misty

His name was Ash

Now the poem’s over

And I must run

 

“Seeya later folks,” I screamed as Misty bounded onstage, ready to kill. I rushed out the emergency exit, followed by Misty. She tackled me down to the ground. I was laughing my head off.

“I swear, I’m gonna kill ya,” she said. I pushed her off and sat up.

“WHY’D YA GO AN’ DO THAT RIDDEL???!!!!” She screamed. A bunch of people came out of the main entrance. I looked over and saw Ash, May, Max, Brock, Amy, Sarah, and Jack bounding towards us.

“Great poem Riddel,” Sarah and Amy exclaimed, laughing. I smiled and shrugged. As soon as Misty saw Ash, she started to blush, horribly. We all made our way towards the Cerulean Gym. May walked backwards, talking to us.
”As soon as you and Misty ran outta the exit, there was this humongous amount of applause!!! It was awesome!”

“Why Thank you my beautiful public,” I joked crazily. When we reached the gym, Jack look at me and I nodded for a reply. Jack turned to Amy.

“Amy there’s something I hafta tell you.” Amy cocked her head, ready for whatever he was going to say. Jack leaned in and kissed her on the lips. We all cheered for both of them.

“I guess we’re going out,” Amy said, breathlessly. I laughed. Amy made her way home and Jack made his way home.

“Later Sarah, talk to ya tomarrow okay?”

“Kay,” Sarah said and ran home. May, Max, Brock and I all went inside the gym and watched Ash and Misty from the window. I could hear what they were saying.

“Um… Nice breeze… huh Misty?” Ash stammered.

“Yeah… Ash… I have something to tell you. I-I-I-…l-lo-l-… I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!” She said. My jaw dropped.

“Now it’s my turn. Monkey hear monkey do.” Ash kissed Misty on the lips, full force. It had to have lasted for at least a minute. Misty giggled.
”Ash, it’s monkey see, monkey do, sweetie.”

“So what? And now I’m a sweetie? Whassup with that?” They both smiled and walked in holding hands. Right as they walked in the door, we all cheered, loudly.

“Like, whats going on?” Asked Lilley.

“Long story sis, long story,” came the reply from Misty. It was going to be another adventure telling Misty’s sisters about THIS.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Hey, now I can make a song!!! My poem was successful, so who knows what the song’ll do!!!! Let’s begin…” I yelled.

 

              °°°°The End°°°°

I think that worked okay!!! I made The One Who Was Dense during English class and didn’t think about it and just scribbled it. Never thought I could make a story outta it! Kool! So… good, bad, great, terrible, horrifying, five stars, WHAT DID YA THINK??? I hate myself for not making May look stupid though. WHY????? COS I HATE MAY!!!!!!! Well later!! Review meh!!! And dood! I wrote this whole thing in less than a day. Way less than a day!!!!!!
