Soo this is my first story :) i really hope you like it! And by the way, the first few chapters arnt that good and in the progress of a re-write.

THIS STORY IS WRITTEN MY NELSOPH! :D

At the girls dorm room.

Mistys POV:

"Misty! Wake up!" Leaf shouted. "It's not like you to sleep in like that."

"Yeah, sorry, I couldn't sleep last night, there was too many things going on in my head". I said.

"Oh really now? Like what?"

"Leaf, please get out of my room, I have to get ready for school". I didn't want her to know that I was thinking about Ash. If she knew, she would have told Dawn and May and they would be bothering me for the rest of the day. But for some reason, I couldn't get him out of my head… It was probably because he got a new phone and he has no idea how to use it. It was pretty funny actually, he thought he was playing a game but somehow ended up buying a stuffed monkey online.

"Fine, but hurry up, your breakfast is getting cold." She said as she was leaving my room.

I got dressed, brushed my teeth and went to the kitchen where May, Dawn and Leaf were. May and Leaf were eating pancakes with syrup and Dawn was eating a salad since she wants to keep her figure.

'Bing'. Mays phone went off.

"What's that" Dawn asked.

"I got a text message". May said. "Let me read it." May started to read the text she got, while as she was reading it she started to blush a little. It was probably a long text since she kept on reading for a while. You can see that she is not trying not to smile, but she couldn't hold her smile in.

"What did it say?" Dawn asked.

"Huh? Oh… it was nothing…" May said.

"Come on May, we are your best friends! You can tell us!" I said.

"Fine fine… it was a text from Brendan. He told me that he has to tell me something very important before school starts, he also said that everything might change after this question."

"Uhg, I hate Brendan! You know that Drew is right for you!" Leaf said.

"Whatever guys, I have to go now anyway and meet Brendan, bye guys." She said as she was heading towards the door.

Leaf got up and put her finished plate of pancakes in the sink and started to wash her plate.

"Dawn, are you done your salad?" Leaf said. "Yeah". Dawn replied. As she said that, Leaf took Dawns empty bowl and started to wash it.

"Guys we should probably leave for school now". I said

"Okay" Leaf and Dawn said.

In the High School.

I was on my way to school when I met up with Ash. Since we go to the same math class together (and math is our first subject), I thought it would be more convenient to go and walk with him. On our way there, Ash was trying to figure out how to use his new phone.

"I wish I never got this phone, it's so complicated! " Ash said. "I would get rid of it but it cost lots of money so I might as well keep it".

"It`s okay Ash, you'll figure it out soon." I said

"Haha! I hope so to!" It sounded like Drew's voice, but he wasn't near us. "Ash you idiot, you called me about 5 minutes ago but you never noticed it. I decided that I might as well listen to what you were going to say."

"Oh, sorry Drew, I'll try not you call you accidently anymore." Ash said as he hung up on Drew.

"Hey Ash, do you want to head over to the pool with me after school today?" I asked. We normally did this a couple times a week, but Ash would just watch me swim.

"Uhh… sure, I enjoy watching you swim laps, it reminds me how athletic you are." Ash said. A slight pink was going across my face once he said that, but I quickly shook it away.

"Thanks Ash, don't forget okay!"

"Okay".

After school.

Ash's POV

I normally watch Misty swim laps in the pool, but I never join her. Sometimes she even asks me if I want to go swimming with her, but I always make up an excuse to not go swimming. Don't get me wrong, I would love to go out and swim with Misty, but the thing is, I don't know how to swim. I would go and take lessons, but I would be the only teen beginner and that would be embarrassing. I would ask Misty to teach me but I like her and I don't want her to think that I am more of a child than I am right now.

I am on my way to the pool and as I approach the pool, I can see that beautiful mermaid swimming in the pool. Wait, did I just say beautiful mermaid? I had way to much sugar today… I walked over to her, and once she saw me she said hi to me.

"Hey Misty, so how many laps did you do while waiting for me?"

"I just got in the pool, so I didn't do any yet."

"Oh okay, now let's do what we normally do, I count how many laps you can do in 5 minutes, you get happy when I tell you that you did a lot of laps and then we go out and celebrate with ice-cream. " I said hoping she won't ask me to go and swim with her, that's why I said the 'plan' so confidently.

"Well actually, I was really hoping that maybe we can swim together?" Misty said blushing a little.

"Umm.. Sorry Mist, I didn't bring swimming trunks."

"Ash, you always say that. I just want to go swimming with you one time! Plllleeeeaaaasssseee" She begged me. I wanted to say yes, but I really don't want to look bad in front of Misty. But I also don't want to hurt her feelings.

"Okay fine, but I'm only going to stay at the shallow end since I, uhh, don't wanna get my hair wet."

"Umm… okay? But next time don't be such a girl, kay?"

"Haha, I'll try not to"

Since I didn't know how to swim, I was terrified, but I tried not to show that I was scared. I took my shirt off and went in the water. I could swear that I saw a hue of light pink go across Misty's face, but I ignored it and continued going into the pool. The water was cold at first, correction, the water was really cold at first. 'How does she fully go into the water almost everyday? This is FREEZING!" I thought to myself. Just as I entered to water, Misty slashed me! With the freezing water! And it hit my face! As payback, I slashed her back, then a splashing war broke out. After our war, Misty won by getting me all wet. Before I could do anything, she asked me a question.

"Wanna race?" Misty asked me.

"Umm, no sorry, I have to go home now." I quickly told her as I exited to pool.

"Oh, okay… I had a lot of fun today Ash." She said while smiling. I just nodded and I was off.

Ash's home.

I felt very embarrassed that I left Misty when she asked me if I wanted to race. She probably thinks that I am a wimp, a coward, someone who is lazy. I lied down on my bed and was trying to think things through.

'Jeeze Mist, why do you have to make me feel this way…'
