Please Don't Hate Me For This This is the second section of the story "Please Don't Hate Me For This". Enjoy.


The clock clicked over to 3am and Luke lie blankly staring at the roof listening to the seconds tick away. He watched the minute had click to half past and decided that he couldn't take it anymore he was going to get Andrew back whatever it took. He pulled on his jacket and headed out to the hospital it was a good job that it was only just down the street, as Luke didn't trust the sounds he heard from the bushes and the dark corners. Once he arrived at the hospital he snuck past the front reception and headed towards Andrew's room he arrived and quietly entered the room. He hadn't moved from when Luke had left him earlier his hand still wrapped around the Pokéball Luke had placed there. Luke went and sat in the chair beside the bed and stared at the various machines placed around.

"You need to wake up we have a lot work to do remember?" said Luke laughing slightly as he spoke

Luke sat back and began to look up at the ceiling however what happened next took him totally by surprise

"What so you mean you beat me every time"

Luke jumped out of his seat and stared at Andrew a smile cracked across Andrews face but his eyes remained shut.

"How long have you been awake?!" asked Luke "Don't know time moves so slow in here," said Andrew his smile widening

Luke sat down and put his hand on Andrews shoulder and gave him a hug

"Glad your ba..."

Before he could finish his sentence Andrew interrupted him

"There's someone at the door"

Sure enough when Luke turned around Misty stood there looking at Luke and Andrew her hands shaking slightly. Noticing this Luke offered his jacket to her and she came and sat down next to him and put his arm around her to keep her warm.

"Why did you come here all by yourself?" Asked Luke " I wanted to see where you were going I got worried when you left your room alone" Misty replied

To this Luke couldn't think of a response to this and so they sat silently for an about 2 minutes when Ash walked in. He glanced at Andrew but then his attention turned to Luke and Misty his felt his face burning up before he could think about what he was saying he walked over to Luke and said in a voice, which he tried to hide his anger behind, but failed

"You and me a Pokémon battle right now!"

Before Luke could answer Andrew butted in

"Hey you aren't getting a battle before I do"

This made Ash jump out of his skin as he had seen Andrew with his eyes still closed and assumed he was still asleep.

"None of you are battling till morning" Said Misty as she stormed out of the room "I agree we all need sleep especially Andrew we will have to discuss this further in the morning," said Luke.

Ash gritted his teeth and turned his head away from Luke.

"Fine, we will settle this in the morning" Ash mumbled as he walked out.

"Man I think you got him angry" Andrew muttered "You're telling me, I haven't done anything wrong" Luke moaned as he rubbed his forehead in confusion. "Cant you tell" said Andy looking at Luke with one eye. "Tell what?" "He's jealous" "Jealous of what?" "Isn't it obvious?" asked Andrew with a worried look "Uh um hang on ill get it uh oh is it me?" "Bingo" "What! Why would he be jealous of me?" "Oh I give up!" Andrew shouted showing how annoyed he was that Luke hadn't caught on to what he was talking about "Wait I don't get it" Luke pondered scratching his head. "Luke you may be an excellent Pokémon trainer but you're sometimes a complete idiot when it comes to body language" "Heh well we all make mistakes" Luke snickered as he grinned and put his thumb up.

As Andrew let out a sigh he turned over as much as the tubes and wires granted him and went to sleep, Luke quietly walked out of the room and headed back to the Pokémon center.

He got back to the Pokémon center, let out a big yawn and headed for the elevator, as he got to the elevator he saw Misty waiting for him at the elevator, she smiled when he appeared in her view.

"I thought I'd wait to make sure you got back safe" "Oh ok"

They both got in the elevator, thoughts were running through Luke's head as the pointer moved across the floor numbers on the dial.

"Why on earth did she wait for me to make sure I was safe? She saw how powerful my Heracross was against those Rydons, this just doesn't add up".

"So do you?" Luke snapped out of his deep thoughts.

"Do I what?" "Do you have? a.. a.. girlfriend?" Misty stuttered concealing her blushed cheeks with her hands. "Uh no" Answered Luke Turning red also. "Oh"

Both their cheeks turned back to normal and a silence lay in the elevator, an awkward silence neither of them dared to look at one another when a sudden pinging broke the silence.

"I guess this is our floor" Luke muttered smiling, being the courteous guy he was Luke let Misty off first then the door closed behind them followed by the noise of the elevator making its slow decent back to the ground floor.

"So I guess I'll see you in the morning then" "Yea see you in the morning" Misty suddenly gave Luke a kiss on the cheek then ran into her room shutting the door behind her, Luke caressed his cheek where her soft lips had been. Suddenly everything fell into place.

"I get why Ash is jealous of me now it's because Misty likes me, wha!"

Luke was surprised at his own conclusion and decided it was best to put it behind him if he was going to have a match tomorrow he needed to get the sleep, he headed for the door, turned the knob but it was locked.

"Ghh Ash must have locked it when he came up, wait"

He looked over to Misty's room door.

"There's a spare bed in Misty's room hope she doesn't mind"

He walked over to Misty's door and softly knocked on it.

"Misty are you still awake? Ash has locked the door so could I sleep in the spare bed?"

A muffled voice came from inside the room.

"Yeah sure its open I'm just in the shower"

Luke walked in and looked around noticing all of Misty's things nicely placed on the dresser.

"All my stuff is in the other room ah well I'll just sleep in my boxers"

After making sure Misty was still in the bathroom Luke stripped down to his boxers and started to get into bed when he heard footsteps coming from the bathroom he quickly got under the covers and pretended to be asleep, Misty came out of the bathroom dressed in a yellow and blue satin night dress. She looked at Luke then got into her own bed closest to the window, pulling the Pikachu covered duvet over her.

"Isn't his bag in the other room? He must be..." Misty cut herself off with a giggle before turning over and going to sleep.

An hour had passed Luke was fast asleep but Misty was fidgety and was shivering as she was closest to the window, she just couldn't get to sleep she turned over to look at Luke.

"I'm sure he wouldn't mind"

She got out of bed and tip toed over to him lifting up the cover, noticing his toned body she giggled then slipped into the bed next to him, he was warm, A comforting warmth that made Misty feel safe and secure, Misty put her arms around Luke but Luke didn't notice she nuzzled close to him and she too drifted off into a deep sleep

The morning sun came over a hill and The Pidgeys started the beautiful song once again. Sentrets were scurrying across the field next to the Pokemon center. A beam of gorgeous sun came through the curtain and shone on the two deep sleepers in the bed. In the other room Brock was the first to wake as he had never left his bed from the night before and was completely oblivious to what happened during the night before, seeing Luke's empty bed he assumed he was in the bathroom, He went down to the Cafeteria to get some breakfast, Ash got up a few minutes after Brock left and turned to also saw that Luke wasn't in his bed He got up and walked into the bathroom, noticing he wasn't there either he decided to go and check if Misty had a good sleep, he got dressed in his usual attire, walked out of his room and noticed that Misty's door was open ajar. He cocked a brow then opened it slowly to the vision before him.

"Misty and Luke in the same bed!" His rage for Luke intensified tenfold

He went over to them and poked Luke harshly in the shoulder, which abruptly woke him but it did not wake the beautiful girl next to him.

"What it's still early" "You dirt bag! Playing Modest just so you could get Misty in bed" "What are you talking about?" "Don't play dumb with me you imbecile she's right there!"

Luke turned to see Misty laying her head next to his with her hand on his chest.

"But but I didn't know"

He quickly got out of bed trying to not disturb Misty; he laid her hand down and quickly got out of the bed and got his clothes on.

"Yea likely story I knew you were just a rat hunting for some fresh meat when I saw your face when she hugged you, you disgust me, forget Andrew, I want my battle now, I'm going to wake Misty so we can get away from you!"

Luke stood in front of him blocking his path to where Misty was sleeping, completely oblivious.

"Out of my way" "Look I'm your problem not Misty lets have this battle then I'll get her to explain that I didn't do anything"

Ash turned and walked out.

"I'll be waiting in the arena"

Luke turned to the still fast asleep Misty and let out a sigh.

"You're more trouble than I need"

He walked out and got into the elevator, He was surprised to see none other than Andrew standing in his usual attire with just a bandage round his arm but he had a frown and an angry glare in his eyes as Luke walked towards him.

"Hey Andrew, feeling better?" "How could you do that Luke" "What?" "Sleeping with Misty! We have known these people for a day and you go and do something stupid like that, Ash just told me everything" "But I didn't sleep with her I woke up and she was next to me you have to believe me Andrew" "That's kind of hard to believe don't you think?" "Andrew" Andrew looked deeply into Luke's eyes he could tell he was telling the truth, his frown disappeared.

"So what happened then?" Andrew questioned "I don't know I went to sleep and this morning I woke up and Ash was standing in front of the bed and she was next to me you have to believe me I didn't do anything with her I didn't even know she got in the bed"

Andrew patted his distressed friend on the shoulder.

"Don't worry I believe you I'm just annoyed that I don't get a battle now" Andrew moaned with a chuckle, Luke chuckled back.

"Oh that's right I better go battle him then this whole thing will be sorted out"

Luke walked towards the entrance when Brock walked up to him.

"Hi Luke, Hi Andrew feeling better?" greeting them with a smile. "I'll have to talk later Brock I'm about to have a battle with Ash because he thinks I slept with Misty when I actually didn't and she is still asleep and the door was locked so I had to go in her room and now I need to battle Ash and then tell him what happened and then I'll have Misty tell him what happened also so I'll see you in a bit"

And with that Luke walked out, Brock scratched his head in pure confusion, Andy walked over to him and patted him on the shoulder.

"Long story just come and watch the match and you'll understand"

Brock didn't get any of this but he followed Andrew out the entrance around to the arena outside.

The arena was standard size The was a chain link fence all around other than where you could enter there were bleachers on one side of the arena and picnic tables on the other the arena its self was just a dirt patch with a faded chalk Pokéball marking in the middle of it there were two boxes marked out where the trainers stand and flood lights in all four corners but as it was morning they were not needed and were off, Ash stood in his trainers box ready to battle Luke with his companion Pikachu perched on his shoulder, he had a determined face which glared as Luke walked towards his trainers box, a cold breeze blew across the field but neither trainer stirred as there stares intensified until Luke spoke up.

"How many Pokemon are we using?" "Just one, I only need one to take you down" "Fine then we will start" Shouted Andrew as he took the referees box in the middle of the sideline, Brock sat at the top row of the bleachers. "This battle is between Luke and Ash each opponent will use just one Pokemon" "Let the battle begin" Shouted Andrew as he raised his hand in the air then threw it down to start the battle.

"Go Lucky" Luke yelled as he released his Heracross and it spread its wings and took to the sky.

"Go Pikachu" Yelled Ash as the little yellow mouse jumped off his shoulder and ran into the battle

Luke was the first to attack.

"Horn attack"

Luke's Heracross dived down charging at the rodent with its sharp broken horn.

"Dodge it and counter with Thunderbolt" Shouted Ash confidently as Pikachu jumped out of the way then charged up to unleash a devastating thunderbolt at Heracross.

"Lucky absorb it and fire it back"

Lucky dropped to the floor and stood its ground as the thunderbolt hit it with tremendous force, but to Ash's surprise sparks started zooming around its horn, it then fired the bolt back at Pikachu knocking it across the field.

"Pikachu!" Ash screamed as the little mouse groggily picked itself and got back into battle stance.

Suddenly a shout was heard from the opening in the chain link fence, everyone turned to see who it was, it was Misty standing watching as the two trainers battle.

"Ash I didn't do anything with Luke, I was cold so I got out of my bed and slipped into his he was asleep the whole time please stop this battle please!"

Suddenly an explosion came from where the picnic benches where a giant mechanical digger shaped like a Sandslash rolled onto the field Grabbing Pikachu in a claw suddenly three characters popped out of a hatch on the top of the Sandslash's head, a women with Long red hair, a man with medium blue hair and a Meowth that had learnt to stand on it's hind legs.

"Prepare for trouble"

"And make it double" "To protect the world from devastation"

"To unite all people within our nation"

"To denounce the evils of truth and love"

"To extend our reach to the stars above"

"Jesse"

"Ja..."

"Oi what the hell do you think you're doing?" Shouted an angry Luke from his trainers box.

"Shut it twerp we haven't even finished the motto yet!" shout the man.

Luke fist's shook with rage at his sides as he lifted up his head to look at the three with the same flame in his eyes as he had had hen he looked at Ash after Andrew had been injured.

"Lucky get Pikachu out of that claw"

The Heracross shot up to the claw smashing it open letting Pikachu drop out, Pikachu ran back to Ash while he watched as Luke turn to him.

"Stand back and watch"

"Crossfire attack!" He screamed as Heracross began to glow. "Focus it on the on that machine"

As his trainer had commanded Lucky released the energy blast directly at the machine causing a massive explosion sending the three people hurtling into the air.

"Looks like we're blasting off again!" Shouted the three in unison as a star appeared where they had flown out of view.

The dust cleared and Ash walked up to Luke

"I'm sorry; I should have let you explain" "It's ok" Luke said with a grin "but that still doesn't explain the door" "Door?" "Yeah you locked the door when you went to bed didn't you" "I didn't lock the door" "Then why was it locked?"

Brock came over to them with Misty and Andrew.

"I can explain you see our door is a bit of a pain and you have to push it hard to open it once you turn the knob"

"Oh" Muttered Luke, suddenly him and Ash started to crack up, seeing that so much had happened just because of Luke not pushing the door open. Luke seeing the funny side of it started to laugh as well. The two of them laughed loudly and the others stood and smiled watching them both. Eventually the two of them calmed down and the laughter died down.

Brock looked around and then turned back to the rest of the group with an inquisitive look on his face.

And there is even more surprises and battles in the next instalment keep reading.
