Two Items of Love

Looking through his bag to complete his nightly rituals. Even now years later, the sixteen year old clutched the soft silky pink cloth in his ungloved hand. He opened the cloth to reveal a winking fishing lure that was identical to the girl that stole his heart.

Those two items have been with him in each journey since he received them. They were worth so much, they were home to him, she was his home. Even though he never physically gave her a gift, little did she know he gave her his heart, he was in love with the fiery gym leader.

Ash Ketchum stood on the balcony overlooking the ocean next to the Pokemon Center in Laverre City in Kalos. He grew to love the water, it made him think of Misty's eyes because they shared the same color. His thoughts traveled to her hair and how he loved it so much, it was red and red was his favorite color. To him, she was beautiful and he promised himself that when he returned home this time he was going to tell Misty he loved her. He smiled to himself as he gazed at two of the most precious and treasured items he had.

He couldn't help but smile whenever he thought of her. How could he not? She was everything he could ever want in a girl. He promised that when he did tell her how he felt, he would make sure to take care of her just as he took care of his two favorite momentos. His heart beating with determination. She gave him strength and she she didn't even know it. Misty.
