                                    Meowth's Wish
It was just a normal day for the unluckiest members of Team Rocket. Jessie, James and Meowth. They had just been blasted off as usual. Both humans were totally scorched. Meowth was complaining about his poor tail.
"Will you quit it, Meowth?" James said. Meowth muttered something and rubbed his tail. "What you say?" James said. He glared at Meowth, waiting for an answer. Meowth didn't answer. "Answer me!" he shouted. There was still no answer. James gave up and went to find some shade.
"Maybe the heat is getting to him. Why didn't you answer him, Meowth?" Jessie said. "Oh, it was nothing. Just me talking to myself." Meowth walked over to a well near by and sat next to it. Jessie went and joined James.
Why won't they? Meowth thought. It would be perfect. He sighed. He got up and looked in the big well. All that was in it was a couple of coins and a puddle of water. "Eh, might as well" Meowth said to himself. He removed a coin that he had kept behind his lucky charm. He closed his eyes, stayed silent for a minute and then threw the coin into the well.
He walked over to Jessie and James. "Hey Meowth. Sorry about earlier." James said. "Dats ok Jimmy boy!" Meowth said. He sat down next to Jessie and James. It stayed quiet for a couple of minutes. Dang, Meowth thought. It didn't work… "I'm gonna go for a walk…" Meowth said. "Ok. We are going to stay at that hotel." James pointed to a big hotel that was just down the road from where they were. "Meet us back there." Jessie said.  Meowth nodded and walked off.
"What's wrong with him?" James said. "Don't know." Jessie said. She relaxed against the tree they were sitting next to. "Do you think we'll ever catch Pikachu?" She said. There was a moment silence. "Nah!" they both said. They both laughed. They smiled at each other. They had never really got the chance to laugh with each other or talk before.
"Oh, better get going." James said. He got up. Then for some reason, he held out his hand to help Jessie get up. Jessie paused. Then she took his hand and James pulled her up. Werid..Jessie thought. He never does that. She sighed and they both walked to the hotel. They talked for the rest of the way, laughing and chatting.
They eventually reached a hotel. James reached into his pockets and took out all their hard-earned cash. "We got enough?" Jessie said. "Yes." James said as he counted the money. They entered the hotel. "Hey, this place isn't too bad." Jessie said. "I'll go get us a room." James said. Jessie walked over to a notice board. She looked at all the different posters. But one caught her eye. It was a poster for a dance. Jessie glanced at it. It was on tomorrow night. Jessie thought for a moment. I wonder if James wants to go to that…Jessie thought. "What you looking at?" a voice said. Jessie jumped. She turned around. It was Meowth. Jessie felt like getting her paper fan out but for some reason, she didn't. "I was..looking at this.." Jessie said slowly. She tapped a finger on the poster.
Meowth looked up at the poster. He stared at it for a while. "You want to go to dat, don't you? With James…" Meowth said. He waited for Jessie to react. Jessie didn't look at Meowth. She just stared at the poster with a distant look on her face. "Yeah.." Jessie said. "Want me to give James a little hint?" Mewoth said. "Thanks Meowth." Jessie said. She gave him a little smile.
James came up to them. "What are you two guys so happy about?" he said. Meowth and Jessie gave each other a little glance. "Eh, its nothing." Meowth said. James shrugged. Jessie gave Meowth another look. Meowth understood. "I'm going to go and get a little fresh air ok?" Jessie said. With that, she walked outside. "Somebody please explain to me what is going on?" James said. He had a very confused look. "All shall be explained…" Meowth said.
                                                  ***
James and Meowth were standing on the balcony outside their room. "So." James said. "You were going to explain all this confusion to me Meowth?" James said. He leaned against the balcony rail. Meowth stood there for a moment, thinking about what he was going to say, which was a change. "You like Jessie don't ya?" Meowth said. "Of course I do! Except for when she gets her giant mallet or paper fan out…" James said. "Dat's not da point." Meowth said. "Meowth, what are you trying to tell me?" James said. Meowth was struggling. He didn't want to just blurt everything out at once. "Did..did you see dat poster for the dance they got tomorrow?" Meowth said. James thought for a moment and then realised what Meowth's point of all this was.
"She wants me to go with her?" James said a little startled. "Dang…" Meowth muttered. "You got it in one Jim." Meowth said. He walked into the hotel room leaving James outside by himself.
James sighed and leaned on the bar on the balcony. This was confusing him. Why did Jessie get Meowth to tell him? Was she scared of asking him or something? James walked into the hotel room and saw Meowth asleep in the pokémon basket. James got changed and got into his bed. What was he going to do?
                                                 ***
Jessie was still outside. Thinking. She took a deep breath. Wonder how Meowth explained to James… she thought. She got up from the bench she was sitting on and began to walk back to the hotel. Jessie was as confused as James was. She didn't even know why she wanted to go to the dance and why she wanted to go with James.
Jessie reached the hotel and entered. She started to walk down the hallway. Then she looked at the notice board. And the dance poster. Jessie sighed and kept walking. She walked down the corridor until she reached a red door with the number 42 on it. She quietly opened the door in case James and Meowth were asleep. They were. She tiptoed over to her bed, quietly got changed and got into bed.
James woke up. "Jess? That you?" he said. "Yeah. Goodnight James." she said. She said it quietly because Meowth was asleep and it wasn't a good idea to try and wake him up. James smiled to himself. "Goodnight." he replied.
