When you touch my hand… I feel like you've touched my heart.

And this is seriously the best I can do? Seriously. You'd think that after five years….

Yeah, I did say FIVE YEARS.

FIVE.

LONG.

YEARS.

Five years it took you to pick up on whatever the hell it is that's between us?

FIVE YEARS.

And I'm still not certain….

But the last few things you've written…

There's this…

There's something….

Something…

There's something there that I…

That I haven't ever…

…sensed? That's as good as it's going to get, I guess.

But still… it seems that there's something… more… in these words than there usually is…

Am I getting so desperate that I'm looking for something that's not there?

But it still seems that something's different…

The last time I saw you, and we said goodbye for what we both knew would be a long time… you hugged me.

And there was something in it…

Something in it…

That was… different.

Maybe it's just that it was you. I'd never hugged you before… but… but… still…

The way you held on for a second too long. The way you held on just a bit too tight…

It's been on my mind…

And what if…

What if…

What if I'm not just imagining all of these hopeless coincidences?

What if there's something… real there?

And what happens that now that this crush that I've had on you F-O-R-E-V-E-R has come back with a vengeance??

WHAT DO I DO??

And I can't even think of anything good to describe it. Just some silly words that I pulled from that time forever ago when you held my hand.

And… from my hope that your heart is touched when mine is, too…

I miss you, Mr. Pokemon Master.

And I hope that you weren't lying when you said that you missed me.

And I hope so much that your heart is touched when we touch, too.

Uhh… that was a little different from my usual style… I'd say that I have absolutely no clue where that came from, but I know EXACTLY where it came from. And this is an Ash/Misty thing. I hope that was obvious, seeing as I put it in the summary.

So… umm… yeah… feel free to ask me questions like "Why are you so random?!?!?"

Hope y'all enjoyed this:)
