Misty was awoken by feeling Ash stirring by her side. She opened her aqua eyes and looked over at him and smiled. He had his arms around her waist with the most peaceful face she has ever saw on his face.

She buried her face in his hair. (Dang his hair smells good).

"I wuav oo missy," she heard him mumble.

He was still asleep. (Huh, it sounds like he said...I love you Misty?! yeah right. I only wish...)

Misty frowned. She hoped so much for her and Ash to be together. (I mean, he is the one....isn't he? Ah, he probably doesn't feel the same ). She knew she had to get him to let go of her or else, when he was to wake up, he'd embarrased and probably, maybe, get mad at her.

She hesitated a moment and then shifted to the right. That made it worse. He only gripped her more tightly.

(This isn't going to work) she sighed.

A few moments passed by, and finally, Ash twitched a little and opened his eyes to see a beautiful 'princess' at his side. He smiled, but not for long when he noticed her eyes were open, looking up to the ceiling of the cave. His face flushed in embarrassment and soon got more red when...

"Oh hey Ash. Did you have a good rest?" Misty tried to sound innocent.

"Uh...y-yeah," he stuttered.

"Why is your face so red?" she asked, even though she knew what it was.

"Uh...nothin'....it's just hot around here," he made an excuse.

"Oh, ok," Misty turned her head around and grinned. (hehe, that was fun)

"Um, let's go and look for Pikachu and Togepi again," Ash said while getting his cap of the ground and putting it on his head.

"Yeah let's go," she agreed.

They walked into more pathways in the dim-lighted cave but it lead them to nowhere, just more lost.

"This isn't working out, they could be on the other side of the cave," Misty implied.

"Let's just keep on going, you don't need to start thinking negative," Ash looked at her.

"I wasn't," she said.

"Can't we take a break? I'm getting so tired," Misty whined.

"Again?" Ash asked folding his arms.

"We've been walking for four hours, what do you expect?" she sighed.

"I expect we keep on walking to find them because they could be in trouble. Misty, I know you can go on a little longer, don't start this again," he said.

"Ash, I'm about to collapse! Let's stop just for a sec!" she shouted.

"NO!"

"Well, I'm going to so go on without me," Misty sat down.

"That is so pathetic, I'm sure your not that weak," he stopped and rolled his eyes.

"I'm not weak, WHO would walk non-stop for four hours? I'm sure you're a little tired," she said getting annoyed.

"No I'm not, there are many people who would walk this long without stopping."

"Uh, no."

"Uh, yes!"

"Ash, you think you know it all, don't you? I have never heard of someone keep going like this," she remarked.

"Just shutup..I'm going on and walking because I actually CARE for my Pokemon," he snorted, immediately regretting what he was saying.

"WHAT?! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I CARE FOR TOGEPI MORE THAT ANYONE COULD UNDERSTAND!!!" she shouted in his face with tears forming in her eyes."DON'T EVER SAY THAT ASH KETCHUM, THAT REALLY HURTS!"

"Sorry. C'mon, I know you can go on just a little longer, I know your strong," he encouraged.

"Ash..." Misty started.

He looked at her for a while and felt a burden on his back. (Why do I keep pushing her like this?)

"Ok, we'll stop for a minute," he sat down.

"Thanks," she layed on the floor.

But it wasn't a long rest until...

The cave shook fiercly.

"AAAAAAAH!" the boy and girl yelled.

The ground cracked under them and split.

Their voices echoed the caves as they fell.....
