~A~[Apprentice]~A~

Georgio Ash thought to himself

There he was with that stupid sky blue scarf wrapped loosely around his neck. Who in their right mind wears those things indoors anyway? Oh, right excuse me it is called an 'ascot'. Though, still really not sure what the difference is or was though. Still looks ridiculous. He looks like such a dork. Honestly, he looks like a stuttering, gawking, mindless fool. Ash thought this to himself as he just shook his head slightly and rolled his eyes as he watched the boy discreetly from the glass windows from his spot outside of the Cerulean Gym. As he peered into the reception area of the Gym though, the man took that moment to just silently observe the awkward display infront of him. Ash watched intently as Georgio tried talking to Misty from his seat at the desk.

In all reality though, the guy Ash was silently berating in his mind wasn't really a bad person. He met him for the first time a couple of months ago when he was in the area to see his girlfriend. Just before then is when Georgio decided that he wanted to get a job learning the ropes of what a gym leader does on a daily basis and get the chance to see Misty everyday. He pretty much answered phones, scheduled some battles, helped feed the pokemon and referee on occassion.

This boy is Misty's so called 'apprentice'. Ash heard all about him previous to that initial meeting. Oh yeah, Ash was well informed about the love letter and her refusal to go on that date with him years ago. So he knows there is no way that working there was just to work there. He believed Georgio still had feelings for her and the raven haired trainer wasn't wrong either.

Even though Ash and Misty are dating and madly in love mind you. He still couldn't help but to be jealous, regardless. Even with no reason to feel threatend really. It wasn't because of Misty at all, there were absolutely no trust issues between them, completely faithful. But, she could use the help around the gym so when she was approached, she accepted. It was mainly just her and Daisy working there so an extra hand never hurt especially since Violet and Lily were rarely around. But, the kid managed to rub Ash the wrong way. Well every guy who looked at Misty did but for now his target and sneers were on the 'dork with the scarf'.

"Ssso uuh M-Misty. Do you um want me to feed the pokemon now? Oh a-and you um have that battle soon. The challenger should be here within the hour". The boy spluttering and staring at her like a hormonal teenager while he stammered through his sentence. He had a constant blush on his face whenever the gym leader looked his way. Taking care to look away so she wouldn't catch him staring. Though Misty dismissed his blushes because regardless, she did not feel the same, wether Ash was in the picture or not.

Unaffected "Oh. For right now could you just man the phone?" Misty answered while going through her mail. You know the usual. Bills, bills and yup you guessed it more bills.

The boy seemed more nervous than usual. Believe me that is saying something. She knew what the problem was. The guy wasn't as excited as she was that her boyfriend was coming to see her that day. Who knew Ash could be so intimidating?

Taking this opportunity to finally go greet Misty. Casually walking through the sliding glass doors without any words he strode up to the pre occupied gym leader. That day she was wearing a very tight pair of dark wash jeans that drew attention to every curve on her lower body. Not to mention the subtle show she had put on display in her light purple v neck shirt that was showing off a decent amount of skin. Walking right up to her without any verbal greetings he let his actions do all the talking. He without warning, shoved his tongue halfway down her throat and pressed her body as humanly close to his as he could possibly get her. Fully aware that he had an audience. Yeah Georgio wasn't the only hormonal teenage boy in the room except Ash had exclusive access and permission granted to do as he pleased. Well, to a point...

Misty totally forgetting Georgio was even the room brought her hands up and moved his hat to the back. No obstructions. Plus, he looked very sexy when he did that anyway. She could've sworn she felt something bumping into her leg but dismissed it the feeling, too happy to be in her love's arms to care. As his gloved hands began traveling down past her waist they tore apart when a shrill RING filled the room.

"Hi. Cerulean Gym", Georgio mananged to say without giving off his embarrassment and slight dejection. "Um Misty? It's uh Daisy."

Blinking out of her daze and now snapping back to reality. She took the phone and tried to catch her breathe as her fierce blush was slowly disappearing. "Love, I have a battle that has been pre-scheduled in an hour. Would you mind going to help Georgio feed everyone? I needa take this call"

Smiling, "Yeah. Sure"

As both boys walked into the battle area Ash couldn't help it, "See she asked me to help you with your job. I don't needa be an apprentice to work here. But thats your excuse to get close to her. While I get to help and get the perks," Ash smugly gave the boy a crazed smirk. It was really unlike him to behave like this but when your jealous and in love it can make you act differently.

"Apprentice" ,Ash thought. Forget that, boyfriend is more like it.
