"A Pokemon Gaining Adventure"

Chapter 3


While on the way to the Pokemon Center the three stopped at a small restaurant to eat. Misty stared at the dessert bar.

"Look at all of the delicious desserts!" she said.

After they were seated she began to gobble up all of the cookies and ice cream. Tracey pulled out his sketchbook.

"Amazing, I have to sketch this!" Tracey whispered to himself, somewhat awed by Misty's eating.

He began furiously sketching down the scene. This caught Ash’s attention.

"Hey, what are you drawing, Trace?" Ash inquired.

Tracey blushed and held his sketchbook up to his chest.

"Oh, nothing, really."

"C’mon, you can show me."

"Oh, alright."

He let Ash look at the picture of Misty.

"Hey, this is pretty good," Ash said, "Could you draw me one?"

"Uh.. sure, I guess."

Without her knowing, Tracey drew Misty for Ash. Soon they left again for the Pokemon Center; when they got
there were still crates and assorted packing things lying around.

"Is there anyone here?" Ash called.

"I don’t see anybody," Misty said.

"Oh, is somebody out there? I’m sorry," said a voice, sounding like a Nurse Joy.

"So this is the new Pokemon Center?" Ash asked.

"Yes, we should be opening in a month," Nurse Joy explained, "Right now we don’t have all of our equipment
here or running so if you need your Pokemon to be healed, you’ll have to come after we open in the near future."

"That’s ok, we just came by to see the Pokemon Center," said Tracey.

"Oh. Well you kids watch out, we still have a lot of things lying around here," said Joy.

"We will," Misty answered.

Nurse Joy went back into the storage room to straighten it up.

"So what are we gonna do now?" Ash asked.

"I dunno, look around some more?" Misty suggested.

"Toge, toge-briiiiiii!!!" Togepi squealed.

For no reason, Togepi wiggled around and slipped out of Misty’s arms, bounced off her belly and went rolling
off. Nobody noticed, Misty just felt a wobbly feeling on her stomach.

"Ahh!! Where’d Togepi go??" Misty said after a few seconds.

"Tracey, you go look over there, I’ll look over here, Misty you go check around the corner," said Ash.

The three split up and Misty headed off around the corner. Togepi was there waddling around by some crates.

"Toge-briii!!"

She ran over and scooped up Togepi.

"Don’t you run off like that again, Togepi!"Misty lightly scolded.

"Who’s there?" came another voice from in the room.

"Huh? Who said that?" asked Misty.

Somebody came up from behind a few of the crates. A young Nurse Joy, no older than Misty.

"There’s two Nurse Joys at this Pokemon Center?" Misty asked, confused.

"Well, I’m not a Nurse, not yet at least...," Joy replied, sighing.

"What do you mean, is there some reason you can't become one?"

"No, it's not that. My aunt says I need to become a Nurse like everyone else in my family, but I don’t want to."

"How come? I thought all Joys wanted to become Pokemon nurses?"

"Not me. I don't like to work."

"Why don't you just tell your aunt you don't want to be a Pokemon nurse?"

"She doesn't care. She says I'd bring shame to the family if I didn't... You’re lucky your family doesn’t
make you work against your will."

"Actually, my family lives far away from here," Misty stated, "Besides, At the rate I'm going, someday I
may be too big to work anyway..."

Joy gasped, "That’s it!"

"What’s 'it'?"

"‘Too big to work!’" Joy repeated, "I’ll just become so big I can’t work here! That’ll solve my problems!"

"I guess...." Misty said, "But are you really sure you would want to do that? You'd have to gain a lot of weight..."

"I wouldn't mind, I'm already on the large side anyway," Joy said.

Misty got a look at Joy for the first time, she was definately one of the biggest Joys she'd seen, although
not that big, sahe still had a rather stocky frame, and weighed approxamately 145 lbs.

"Ohh, but I’d need someone to help me... fast," Joy said, "The Center opens in one month."

"Well, I could help if you wanted..."

"I meant more like a guy or something..."

Misty had noticed Tracey acting weird around her earlier while they were walking and at the restaurant. Could he?......

"Hey, I might know someone who would be interested...." Misty said.

"Really??"

"Yeah. Hey, it’s getting late, why don’t you stop by my other friend’s house tomorrow around noon and you
can meet him?" Misty suggested.

"Sounds great, where is it?"

"Um, here’s the address," Misty said, writing on a sheet of paper, "See ya!!"

"Bye!" Joy said to her new friend.

"Toge-brrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!"



"What???" Tracey exclaimed.

"She’s coming over tomorrow to Ash’s house and I told her you’d be there. Don’t be late."

"What’s she like?"

"Well, she’s a Joy, if that explains much."

"Hmm..." Tracey mumbled.

Ash, Misty, and Tracey stopped in front of Ash’s house.

"So you’ll be here tomorrow at noon?" Misty asked.

"Alright. See ya!"

"Bye!!" both Ash and Misty shouted.

The two went inside after Tracey was gone. Delia had a huge meal waiting for them so they ate.
Afterwards, Misty got up.

"I’m going to go take a shower," Misty said.

Misty wobbled off to the bathroom and Ash stayed in the kitchen where Delia was.

"So, honey, how was your day?"

"Fine. Me and Misty visited Tracey and Professor Oak."

"Misty told me that you’ve been taking her out to eat almost every day for the past several months.
Are you two together now?"

"What do you mean?" Ash asked, clueless.

"Together, you know, going out."

"Waa?" Ash yelled, blushing, "No, we just do that so we can.... eat?"

"Well I know that...," Delia said, "She seems to really like you, dear. You should ask her out sometime."

"Well, maybe..."

"Mrs. Ketchum?" Misty shouted from the bathroom, "Do you have anymore towels? Mine is too small!"

"Yes, Misty dear, hold on a minute!!"

Delia went off to get a bigger-sized towel leaving Ash to think. Misty soon came out of the bathroom,
clad in a large pink towel. She went down to Ash’s room and dressed in her small, blue pajamas.

"Not again...." Misty moaned.

Her exposed stomach was sticking out at least 8 inches and sat nicely on her lap. She giggled and poked it
a few times, somehow entertained by her own squishyness. She heard footsteps so she got up, dumping her
stomach off her lap. Ash walked in.

"Hi, Ash," Misty greeted.

Ash looks at Misty’s ‘immense’ beauty.

"Uh, yeah, hi," Ash answered, blushing.

Misty was sad at this response.

"What’s the matter, Ash?"

"Nevermind."

"C’mon, you can tell me...."

'Well, I might as well some time... Mom said I should,' Ash thought, "Misty, I... I.... kinda like you."

"Yeah?......"

"You know.... a lot....."

"You mean, you... lo.. love me?....."

"Um, kinda.. yeah," Ash said, turning and blushing again.

"Oh Ash.....," Misty squealed, hugging him hard, "I love you too!!"

"Oof!" Ash puffed, then wrapped his arms around her too, "Yeah, I’ve loved you since the day I met you,
and... hey, these are pretty big."

"Get your hands off my butt!"

"Sorry, um, I thought you would want me to or something."

"Well not yet."

"Um, ok."

Ash and Misty then closed in for their first kiss.

"I could just stay like this forever...." Misty said quietly.

"Want a bedtime snack?" Ash asked her.

"Ok!!!" she shouted, quickly letting go.
