Chapter 2
May stepped back, this time her foot colliding with the top of Misty's head.
"Ow!" Misty yelled.
She grabbed May's foot, causing May to fall backwards, hitting her head on the mattress of her bed.
"What the heck was THAT for, Misty!" May demanded, half-asking, half-yelling.
Misty picked herself up from the floor, just in time to come face to face with an enraged May.
They continued to glare at one another, May, glaring at Misty the way she glares at Harley when he did what he did back during the Grand Festival, and Misty glaring at May the way she glares at her sisters at times when they were too busy pampering themselves over their true responsibilities at the gym.
"Listen, May, just stay out of my way, alright? Ash doesn't like you, and, guess what? He never, ever, ever will!" Misty hissed at May's face.
"Well, guess what, 'Mist?' Ash doesn't know who he likes yet, so, if you think you can just poof into the picture, and sweep him off his feet, you are dead wrong, girl. Dead wrong." May countered, whispering into Misty's face.
At the mention of Ash's nickname for her, Misty flinched when she heard May use it. It just didn't sound right..
Suddenly, both girls realized that there was another person in the room: Ash, and, finally realizing what they were whispering about was him, he finally decided to speak.
"Guys?"
Both May and Misty turned to see their "friend." Suddenly realizing that he had heard the whole ideal, Misty did the first thing that came to mind.
She ran right out of the room, not even caring whether or not Ash would care, or that she left everything she had inside of that room.
Ash's POV ANDThoughts
(During May and Misty's little 'hissing' contest)
Ouch!
May hit Misty on the head pretty hard there, and, May hit that bed hard, too...even if there WAS a soft mattress, still... Whoa, wait.. She's standing up...
You know, its really not all that bad laying on the floor... Ah, stop thinking about that! Listen, listen! Wait, they're whispering.. Lemme see ifIcan listen in...
"... just stay out of my way, alright? Ash doesn't like you, and, guess what? He never, ever, ever will!"
Whoa. They're fighting because of...me? And, I think that was Misty... whispering to May.
'Ash doesn't like you and he never, ever, ever will...' that small phrase kept on repeating in my head..over and over...
Wait, I think May is talking!
"...'Mist?' Ash doesn't know who he likes yet, so, if you think you can just poof into the picture, and sweep him off his feet, you are dead wrong, girl. Dead wrong..." her voice kinda seemed to trail off.
And, did I just hear MAY call Misty... "Mist"!
That's MY nickname for her! Hey, wait a minute...did, Misty just...flinch? Or is that a twitch? Not really sure...
Ok, this is getting WAY too emotional. I have got to get up!
Whoa, my legs feel a little shaky...
I try to get up from my current position, which was on the floor, and turn to look at the two glaring girls.
Wow... Misty is glaring at May like the glare that she gives her sisters (or me, when we get lost) and May is giving Misty her occasional "I hate Harley" look. Scary! I gotta break this up...
"Guys?"
Wow. They BOTH turn to look at me... Misty is looking a little pale.
I reach out a hand to touch her shoulder for comfort and support for whatever she was going through, but, before I can raise my hand to her shoulder, she takes off full speed.
General POV
(after Ash talks and Misty runs)
Misty ran outside of the room. When she got out of the door, she paused, and saw a flick of green hair poking out of the door next to her room. She didn't care who it was, she whipped past him, and down the stairs, not caring even when she left everything she had with her outside her room, sprawled all over the floor.
No matter where she ended up, she did not care, because all she wanted was to get away from that room of dreaded horror. 'What would Ash think of me now?' she wondered, her tears slipping from her already tear-stricken face. Her first tears were of heartbreak then joy from finally telling Ash how she felt and then kissing him, but this... These tears were from her just being afraid of what Ash would say.
'I mean, I just kissed him! Without even asking him how HE felt about me! He must think I'm horrible...' Misty kept on repeating these words in her head over and over.
'Ash doesn't like me. He never has. He never will. I ruined it.'
Misty kept on running, not caring whether or not she bumped into people, until she got to the forest, just outside the Pokemon Center. She spotted a cave.
"Right now, that cave looks like a mansion to me... Anywhere is better than that room. Anywhere." she said aloud, talking to herself.
She knelt down on the cold ground. It wasn't raining, there was no breeze, it was just a normal Saturday afternoon, and yet, Misty felt as though she just dived into the cold, cold ocean. It wasn't soon until her eyelids dropped, heavy from crying, and she fell asleep in a wild Ursaring's cave.
Back in the Pokemon Center in Misty and May's Room
Meanwhile, after Misty ran off, May and Ash stared into each other's eyes. Ash felt that May's eyes were showing him hurt, despair, and desperation. May felt that all Ash's eyes concealed to her was confusion. Apparently, he had no idea what just happened and how it would affect May and himself.
"May?"
At the sound of her name, May snapped out of looking into Ash's eyes into looking towards the ground.
"Yeah?"
"What just happened?"
"Ash, you don't get it, do you?"
"Get what? All I know is that Misty ran off after you guys fought. I mean, what is going on? Are you guys fighting..over..me?" Ash finished his last few words into incoherent whispers.
May leaned forward to hear what he had to say. Although they were just about a yard away, she went towards him, paused, then, hugged him. She was starting to feel really bad about what had happened in those last few minutes. Making Misty run off? What kind of a person was she to do that?
Ash was a little taken aback by May's actions. She was...hugging him. The thought raged on in his head over and over. He moved his arms and placed them on her back, hugging her back.
"It's going to be ok, May. It is. Really." Ash whispered as May broke down in small sobs in his ear.
"Ash...I'm...really...sorry..." May whispered into his ear.
"Its alright. We'll find Misty. She couldn't have gone far. Besides, since it's just us now, do you want to talk about anything?" Ash mentioned, letting her go and holding her in front of him, in arm's length, looking into her deep blue eyes, searching for any emotion, but, all he found was sorrow and desperation.
Ash was starting to worry. Maybe he wasn't the right person for them to be traveling with. Especially if it leads to THIS. Ash lead May to her bed and sat down next to her, her head leaning on his shoulder as he rubbed her back to comfort her at the moment. His head was filled with so many things he could not understand. They stayed quiet until May spoke.
"Ash?"
"Yeah, May?"
"I..I have something to tell you."
"Oh?"
May turned to look at Ash.
'He seems troubled. Maybe now isn't the best time. No. I have to tell him. Now or never. Now.'
May's thoughts turned into action as she leaned towards Ash's head and closed her eyes as her lips came in contact with Ash's.
Ash was taken aback by her actions, but, closed his eyes as well, thinking about how great a person May was, and also thinking of how Misty was dealing, and then, returned the kiss.
Ash felt May put her arms behind Ash's head and felt her deepen the kiss even more. Ash put his arms on her waist, feeling how slim and finely-figured she had become after traveling with her for 2 years.
May felt Ash put his arms on her waist and that made her head turn. She felt herself being dragged down. She suddenly remembered they were on her bed in her room at the Pokemon Center. She wondered if Ash left the door open or not...
Ash felt himself losing control of his hormones. He dragged May down on her bed and found a way to move so that now, May was on top of him, and they were still passionately kissing.
In the next room...
(Before Misty kissed Ash in the last chapter)
Drew had just woken up from his nap in his room at the Pokemon Center. He had heard someone pounding on the door of the room next to his, and that woke him up. Realizing he was still in his boxers, he went to the bathroom included with his room and changed there. That process took several minutes and by the time he was done, the pounding stopped and he decided to open up his door to see what had happened.
At first, he saw a red backpack on the floor in front of the door to the next room, and Pokeballs, a Pokedex, books, and some camping gear were everywhere. Then, all of a sudden, a red-haired girl with a tears streaming down her face came out of the room, pausing for a second to look at him, and then, runs towards the staircase in the end of the hallway.
Drew shut his door and thought about who that was.
'Aha!' he thought. 'That was one of May's friends. Wait, May! Since that red-haired girl is here, does that mean that...May is here, too?'
Drew's feelings for May haven't changed since he last saw her about a couple of weeks ago, after the last Grand Festival. There, he realized that he DID like her, more than a friend, if she considered him a friend, and all he wanted her to become was HIS friend. He was also considering the title "Drew's Girlfriend," but, that would probably be going too far. He just wanted her to notice him in a different light, other than noticing Ash in a different light.
After battling with his thoughts about whether or not he should go out there, collect the girl's things, knock on the door, and find out if May was in there, and to NOT do that, he decided to go out and find out.
Drew opened the door, knelt down, and noticed the door to the room open. The room held two beds. One on the left, and one on the right. The one on the left was empty, but, the one on the right held two people.
The two were making out, as Drew would say. He felt his open hand turn into a fist when he realized that those two people were no other than Ash and May. May was on top of Ash and they were making out.
"May?"
A/N: Ok, just to tell you guys now, I was not trying to make Ash be funny when it was in his POV, so, you can save the flame for that, please. I already know. I wasn't even trying to make him sound funny or BE funny. Besides, this is a DRAMA story for cryin' out loud...!
Anyways, PLEASE REVIEW!
I now accept anonymous reviews...took me a while to figure out where to enable them...heh...sorry about that...!
