AN: This was inspired many years ago by a certain episode of South Park. If you haven't seen that South Park episode, then this fic will make even less sense than it already does.
Sometimes, I still can't believe that I'm married to him. Satoshi, my best friend, and then my rival...it seems like only yesterday I was playing my little games with him, that touch and go dance of insulting him one minute, then turning around and acting as if we were still friends the next...how could I have been so insensitive to him? How could I not see the love for me in his eyes? I don't deserve him, one that is still so innocent after all these years, with a light that seems to surround him, shine out from him into the far reaches of the universe.
I loved him. From the first time I remember seeing him, I loved him. I didn't want to end our friendship, but I had to do it...I was scared, and confused, and didn't believe a boy so pure as him could return my feelings; I didn't want to hurt him.
But, what's meant to be will always find a way. And so, destiny brought us together, in a way I never would have expected.
I thought I saw something different in him, that day. As if he had suddenly realized something, as if an even brighter light had gone on behind those deep brown eyes. I ignored it, though, in my stupidity...but fate still prevailed.
"You SUCK, Ash!" I had told him that day...
Well, he took it as a command, and the rest is history...
Today we are sitting on our couch, with our children at our feet.
"Do you kids wanna hear about the time I saw the Loch Ness monster?" Ash asks.
"No," chorus the kids.
"Well, it was about 10 years ago...I had to get my Pikachu to a Pokemon center, so I grabbed a bike to get him there faster. We made it, but soon there was this horrible monster following me around, screaming, 'Pay me back for my bike!' I asked it, 'What do you want, monster?' And it said, 'I need about three fitty.' So I said, 'Dammit, monster, you're not getting no..."
"Daa-aad!" whines Lavender, "I'm hungry!"
Aubergine chimes in, "Yeah, when's dinner?"
"Don't you kids want to hear about the SECOND time I met the Loch Ness monster? It was about..."
But the kids are already sneaking into the kitchen. Just then, there is a knock on the door.
"I'll get it," says Ash. "Hello, how can I help you?" he asks as he opens the door.
"I'm selling girl scout cookies, would you like to buy some?" says the stranger at the door.
"Well, sure, how much do you need?" asks Ash.
"I need about three fitty."
That's when I notice that this so called 'girl scout' has an ugly red pony tail sticking out the side of her head and is wearing a T-shirt that says, 'Hundreds of Twerpshippers can't be wrong!'
"You're that damn monster!" Ash realizes. I think he's getting a little less dense as time goes on. "Listen, monster, in this house we WORK for our money..." says Ash. But she barges past him, into the living room. Well, we'll manage to get rid of her. We always do.
