"Finally! A weekend off work. Now I can find some time to relax." Ash said. Misty smiled at him. "Maybe even spend some quality time with your wife." she told him. He smiled wickedly at her. "I don't know, Misty. You're not quite as easy to train as a Pokemon." he said. She threw a pillow at him. "Alright, that's it. You've had it now." She pulled a pokeball out of her belt and released her Pokemon, Togetic. He waved at her sadly. "Now, after all this time, you should know that your Togetic is no match for my Pikachu. Besides, they won't battle each other anyway." Ash said. She picked up her Togetic and sat down on the couch beside him. He put his arm around her. "I wouldn't want to battle you anyway...you'd never win!" he said. That was it, now he was going down. She tackled him and the two wrestled each other plyfully to the floor. Misty was glad that their five years of marriage hadn't effected their playfulness. After Ash had completed his Pokemon journey and had become a Pokemon master, she hadn't been sure of their future together. Somewhere along the way in their travels, she had realized that she had feelings for Ash. When he had completed his journey, he had kept his promise and had gotten her a new bicycle. She returned home to Cerealean City in tears, confiding in her sisters of her feelings for Ash. She had never expected what happened next. One day, Ash made a surprise visit to the gym. He told Misty he needed to talk to her alone. She led him into the gym and sat down. He knelt beside her and took her hands. "Misty, we traveled together for a long time. I was just a kid for so many years, but you gave me courage and direction in my life. I never realized how much you meant to me until you were gone...I'm sorry we wasted so much time and I want to make it up to you now. Misty, I love you. Will you marry me?" Misty was startled by his confession. She never thought he had cared at all. She looked into his eyes then and saw two men, the trainer she had traveled with for so long, and now, the man he had become. She threw herself into his arms. "Oh Ash, I love you too! Of course, I'll marry you." she said. After a whirlwind courtship, the pair were married with their Pokemon at their sides. Togepi and Pikachu were the ringbearers, Misty's sisters were her bridesmaids, with Ash's mom as her maid of honor. Ash had Brock as his best man. The couple had settled into their new life. Ash's mom finally revealed to Ash what he had known all along-that she and the Professor had been close for years and she was finally going to be with him. They explained that they had kept the secret for so long because she felt it had been more important to be there for her son than to focus on her own needs. She gave the couple the family home as a wedding gift. Misty embraced her. "You have no idea how much this means to us, Ms. Ketchum. I've loved your son for a very long time." She embraced Misty back. "I've always known. A mother always knows." Not only were the couple happy together, but so were their Pokemon. Together, they built a greenhouse with a heated pool for their water and plant types. Horsea, Goldeen, Politoed, Staryu, Starmie, Totodile, Psyduck and Kingler could never get enough of the pool, diving off the diving board, sliding down the slide, playing together. Bulbasaur and Bayleef froliced happily together in the greenhouse. Noctowl kept watch over it all at the top of a tall tree. As for Ash's Muk, Snorlax, Heracross, Cydaquil and Tauros, they were happy to frolic in the big backyard. Togepi evolved a few years later to Togetic, and it stayed inside along with Ash's Pikachu. Thankfully, because of all his years as a trainer, he had become famous and had built a career traveling around and lecturing about Pokemon training. Misty was the happiest she'd ever been. Her and Ash were happy, and for that, she was grateful. It was their love of Pokemon that kept them close. While he traveled, she was content to stay home and tend to the Pokemon. When Misty was bored, she would swim with the Pokemon in the pool, giving both Togetic and Psyduck swimming lessons. Togetic did the dogpaddle with little effort, and Psyduck was content floating around on his back, snoozing. Somhow however, today was different. While Ash took a much needed rest, Misty had just finished givign the Pokemon their lunch when the doorbell rang. "I'll get it." she told him. She put the food bucket down and answered the door. "Gary?" It was Gary Oak.
