It Was a Fling Part 1 By: Rai Disclaimer: I don't, and never will [sadly], own pokemon. There, said it, did it, I rest my case. Characters: Ash: 14 Brock: 19 Misty: 15 Rai (Me): 14 going on 15 Johnathan: 16 Pikachu: not sure.. Italics: Thought <...>: Pokemon translation (Italics) "Ash! You got us lost again! Again! What is your problem? Can't you see we're goin' in the complete opposite direction?" Misty yelled right up in Ash's face. He stared blankly at her, wondering why these past years she's been picking on him even though he never once held the map in his hands. Calmly, he stated, "Mist, I'm not the one with the map and-" pointing to a Brock with eyebrows twitching so "-I'm not the one who gets us lost." So he stood there, seeing that Misty was seeing red. She looks so cute when she's mad, and yet defeated Ash thought. Misty, knowing that she was, after all, defeated, turned to Brock and wacked him with her mallot. Pikachu, being an audience to the small conflict, started to crack up at the sight of this. "Brock, gimme the map!" Misty snatched it out of his hands. They were headed for Thunder Jolt (TJ) City, apparently the city for lightning pokemon, like pikachu. As the threesome and the yellow mouse continued, Ash kept stealing glances at Misty, hoping that she didn't notice. But she did, and was doing the same, not knowing that they felt the same for each other. The trip to TJ City was gonna take 3 days, long enough for the two to find out what's really going on. Why does he keep lookin'? Does he feel the same way? What could it be? Misty thought while setting up her tent and laying Togepi on her sleeping bag. "Brock, I'ma goin' to get firewood..'kay?" Ash yelled back. "Sure, whatever makes you happy.." replied Brock. Now's my chance! "Brock, do you need water for the..the...food?" "Uh...yeah, would you--" "Okay, I'll be right back!" "That was weird.." Brock looked over by the corner of his tent and saw the water pail was still there waiting for Misty's pickup. Misty was nowhere to be seen. "Hmm..those two finally came to their senses," Brocked told Pikachu. "Pi..Pikachu? ." Brocked turned back to setting up camp. Meanwhile, Misty was rushing through the wood trying to find Ash..It's so dark. "Looking for...me?" said an oh-so-familiar voice. Misty whipped around to see Ash. Startled, she fell into his arms. Ash's heart began to race like Rapidash. He finally relized why Misty's presence have been driving him nuts and out of his mind: He loved her. He loved Misty Waterflower, her aqua blue eyes, her fiery red hair, all of it. Misty looked up into Ash's pure brown eyes. She couldn't be more happy than to be in his arms. Ash leaned in for the kiss. It was a passionate one, one that had some meaning to it..or did it? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That's the end of part 1! Sorry if it was a little short. But the second will be longer..REVIEWS PEOPLE!!! Thank you. Gracias. Merci. Aloha.
