Things I'll Never Say This is my 12th fanfic! If you noticed, the title is also the name of an Avril Lavigne song. I got the idea for this fanfic when I was just recently listening to the song. The lyrics speak a lot of this fanfic. Hope you like! Whatever is in ~ ~ is the song " Things I'll Never Say." Ash- 19 Misty- 20 Brock- 23 Rudy- 21 ~ I'm tugging at my hair ~ ~ I'm pulling at my clothes ~ ~ I'm trying to keep my cool ~ ~ I know it shows ~ Misty opens her journal and starts to write, " Dear Journal, Tonight's the super ball. I can't wait for it to start! Ash and Brock are going too. I really hope Ash asks me to dance! I haven't seen him since my sisters handed the gym down to me, which was last year. We keep in contact over email, but it's not as fun. I still hope he's cute and sweet. I still love him as much as ever. I've tried to tell him, but it's so hard. I stutter and I stumble, it's like I've got nothing to say. You should see the dress I got for it! It's aqua blue, and it's very long. It's super cute on me! Well I got to go. Write later, Misty Yawa Misty turns to a page in her journal with a picture of Ash on it and sighs. She kisses the picture and closes the journal. She stuffs it in her drawer. She gets out her dress and puts it on. She puts on the matching aqua blue shoes, and then she brushes her hair. She looks at herself in the mirror. " Perfect!" She says. Smiling. " Misty! You're ride's here!" Her sister Daisy called. " Coming!" Misty yells. She goes downstairs. Daisy's waiting at the door. " Cute look! I know Ash will like it." Daisy says. " Thanks! See you later!" Misty waves and gets in the car. " Bye! Have a good time!" Daisy yells. The car leaves the driveway. Misty sighs. " So miss," The driver asks, " Where are we heading today?" " The Pallet town arena." Misty says. " How long till we're there?" " About 15 minutes miss." The driver replies. Misty looks outside and watches the scenery. She sighs again. ******** At the Pallet town arena... " Brock, what time is it?" Ash asks. " 6:00." Brock says. " Misty should be here soon." Ash says. " I'm really nervous about it!" " Why?" Brock asks. " You know how much I like Misty!" Ash yells. " Chill Ash! You don't have to tell everyone here!" Brock says. " Whoops." Ash blushes a bit. " Yeah, really!" Brock says. " Now it's 6:02! She's late!" Ash says. " Chill, that's her limo pulling up right now!" Brock says. Misty steps out and Ash gasps. ~ I'm staring at my feet ~ ~ My cheeks are turning red ~ ~ I'm searching for the words inside my head ~ " Hey Ash!" Misty yells. " Uh, hey Misty." Ash stammers. He blushes redder as Misty comes up to hug him. " So, how's it been Ashy-boy? Oh, hey Brock!" Misty says. " Um, I've been uh, good! Yeah, good." Ash says. " Hey Misty, looking good!" Brock says. " Thanks. Why don't we head in!" Misty suggests. " Ok, sounds good." Ash says. They head in the arena. They go into another room. Misty gasps when she sees the room. " Wow! It's so beautiful!" Misty exclaims. " Uh, I saved a three person seat for us." Ash says. The go to table number 13 and sit down. A waiter comes by. " Hello! What would you like to drink?" The waiter asks. " I'd like a Diet Cherry Pepsi please." Misty says. " I'll have a Mountain Dew." Ash says. " I'll have an iced tea." Brock says. " Ok, coming right up! Tonight's meal is Pork flavored with lemon juice and mashed potatoes. Fruit cheesecake is for dessert." The waiter tells them and leaves. " So guys, what have you been up to lately?" " I just got back from the Johto league yesterday. I didn't win though." Ash says. " I heard about that. Second place still is really good!" Misty says. " What about you Brock?" " I just got engaged to Susie last week!" Brock grins. He shows them the ring. " Really?" Misty says. " That's great!" " I can't believe it!" Ash says. " I wish I had that kind of luck with girls." Misty looks at Ash. Ash looks back at Misty and grins. " You must have pretty good luck with guys, right?" " Uh, no. Actually, I get a lot of luck with guys, it's just that I turn them all down." Misty says. " What? You too good for them or something?" Ash asks. " No, I just... uh, nevermind." Misty says. The waiter comes with their drinks and dinner. " Come on guys, let's eat!" Ash says. ******** On the dance floor... ~ I'm feeling nervous ~ ~ Trying to be so perfect ~ ~ Cause I know you're worth it ~ ~ You're worth it yeah ~ " So Brock, who are you dancing with?" Misty asks. " I dunno. You wanna dance with me?" Brock asks. " Sure." She puts her arms around Brock and Brock puts his around her waist. Ash watches them jealously. " So, how's your sisters?" Brock asks. " Good! Daisy got a job as a secretary just recently. Lily helps me run the gym, and Violet is a model. I rarely see Violet anymore." Misty says. " I just saw her in Sixteen magazine last month. She looked great! Hey! Susie's finally here! I'm gonna go dance with her if that's ok." Brock says. " It's fine." Misty says. " Ok." He leaves her. Misty sighs and goes to sit down next to Ash. ~ If I say what I want to say ~ ~ I'd say I wanna blow you... away... ~ ~ Be with you every night ~ ~ Am I squeezing you too tight? ~ " Oh... uh, hey Misty." Ash stammers. " Hi Ash." Misty says. She sighs again. " Uh, are you ok?" Ash asks. " Yeah, I'm fine." Misty says. " Um... Mistydoyawanndance?" Ash asks. " What?" Misty asks in confusion. " Sorry. Do you wanna dance?" Ash asks slowly. " Um, sure Ash." Misty says. He takes her hand and they walk on the dance floor. A fast song is playing. They start dancing. " So Misty, what have you been doing lately?" Ash asks. " I've been running the Cerulean Gym. I haven't lost a battle yet!" Misty says. " Cool." Ash says. " What about you?" Misty asks. " I'm everywhere, battling trainers and stuff." Ash replies. " I see." Misty says. A slow song comes on. Ash and Misty both turn red. Misty puts her arms around Ash's neck, and Ash puts his arms around Misty's waist. ~ If I say what I wanna see ~ ~ I wanna see you go down on one knee ~ ~ Marry me today ~ ~ Yes I'm wishing my life away ~ ~ With these things I'll never say ~ " Misty Yawa, is that you?" A voice says. " What? Who said that?" Misty says. " It's me, Rudy!" Rudy says. Misty breaks the dance with Ash. " Oh my god! I haven't seen you in forever!" Misty exclaims. She goes up to Rudy and hugs him. Ash gets a little mad, but stays quiet. " I know. I've missed you so much!" Rudy says and kisses her on the cheek. " So Misty, wanna dance?" " I'd love to Rudy!" They start dancing. Rudy smiles. " Oh Misty, you've gotten so beautiful." Rudy compliments. " Thanks." Misty says, blushing. " What have you been doing lately?" Rudy asks. " I'm the fourth gym leader of the Cerulean City gym!" Misty says. " That's great! I didn't know you were related to the Sensational Sisters!" Rudy says. " You're definitely as beautiful as them." " No way!" Misty says. " Really! I think you're the cutest!" Rudy says. Ash scowls. "Um, thanks again." Misty says. Ash looks at Misty. ~ It don't do me any good ~ ~ It's just a waste of time ~ ~ What use is it to you ~ ~ What's on my mind ~ ~ If it ain't coming out ~ ~ We're not going anywhere ~ ~ So why can't I just tell you ~ ~ That I care? ~ " Oh Misty... I love you." Rudy says, beginning to kiss her. Ash punches him in the face. " Stay away from her!" Ash yells. Misty blinks in confusion. " What's your problem?" Rudy yells, wiping blood from his cheek. " Misty's mine!" Ash yells. Rudy raises a fist, but a policeman grabs him. " No fighting in here! I'm throwing you out!" The policeman says. " But... he hit me... not me!" Rudy yells. " I didn't see it!" The policeman yells and throws him out. " Um, thanks Ash." Misty says blushing. " No problem." Ash says. Misty smiles and hugs him. " Were you serious when you said I was yours?" Misty asks shyly. " Uh, well, um, yeah... I guess so." Ash says. " Ash, can we talk outside?" Misty asks. " Sure Misty." Ash says, thinking " Great, now she's gonna tell me that she doesn't like me..." They step outside. They sit at an outdoor table. " Ash, I just wanted to say that..." Ash interrupts her. " I know! You don't feel the same way I do!" He gets up and starts to walk away, but Misty grabs his hand. " You've got it totally wrong Ash. I love you." ~ If I could say what I want to say ~ ~ I'd say I wanna blow you... away... ~ ~ Be with you every night ~ ~ Am I squeezing you too tight? ~ ~ If I'd say what I wanna see ~ ~ I wanna see you go down on one knee ~ ~ Marry me today ~ ~ Yes I'm wishing my life away ~ ~ With these things I'll never say ~ " You do?" Ash asked. " Yes! I have for all this time!" Misty says. " Misty, I love you too." Ash says. They start to kiss, but Ash breaks it. " Misty, will you marry me today?" " Of course I will Ash." " I'll never spend a night without you." They lean in and kiss. Things I'll Never Say plays in the background.
