Disclaimer: I do not own pokemon. I do not own the song "Things I'll Never Say", Avril does.

This is a song-fic. I am writing this, waiting to get reviews for my other story, because the little amount that I received was just ridiculous. This song is by Avril Lavigne, and Avril is cool. So there.

This is supposed to be some kind of AAML but it'll probably just end up really stupid. So... here's the story.

--Things I'll Never Say--

I'm tuggin' at my hair

I'm pulling at my clothes

I'm trying to keep my cool

I know it shows

Misty lay in a bed at the pokemon center of Viridian City. Ash and Brock were sleeping on the other beds in the room, Pikachu asleep on Ash's stomach. She looked beside her arm where Togepi slept in a ball.

She stared up at the ceiling. 'Why cant I tell him...?' She thought.

She let out a very loud sigh. More like a grunt from frustration. This woke up the cute yellow mouse on the bed beside hers.

'Uh-oh...' Misty thought.

"Pika!" Pikachu yelled crankily.

"Huh...?" Ash said, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. "Is it morning already?"

"Uh... N-no.. You're... dreaming. Yeah, dreaming.. Now.. go dream something else!" Misty said.

"Mist, what are you doing up? It's gotta be," He looked over at the clock, "three in the morning!" He exclaimed.

I'm staring at my feet

My cheeks are turning red

I'm searching for the words

Inside my head

"I just... couldn't sleep, I guess."

"Something on your mind?" Ash asked.

"Um.. No, not really." She lied.

"Mist, I know there's something up. You're usually the first asleep!" Ash argued.

"Well..."

I'm feeling nervous

Trying to be so perfect

'Cause I know you're worth it

You're worth it yeah...

"C-can... can I ask you something?" Misty asked.

"Sure."

"Do you.. like anyone?"

"..." Ash blushed.

"I'm going to take that as a yes." She said. "Can I ask who?"

If I could say what I want to say

I'd say I wanna blow you away

Be with you every night

Am I squeezing you too tight?

If I could say what I want to see

I wanna see you go down on one knee

Marry me today

Guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say

"Um... well... eh..." Ash stuttered.

Misty stared into his eyes, waiting for an answer.

"I... Uh.. you.. Ya' see... I.. I..." He kept stuttering.

It don't do me any good

Its just a waste of time

What use is it to you

What's on my mind

"W-well, who do YOU like?" Ash said.

Misty didn't expect that, for some reason.

"M-me?" She asked.

"... Who else?" Ash looked at her like she was crazy.

"I... I... I aksed you first" She said quickly.

If it ain't come'n out

We're not going anywhere

So why cant I just tell you

That I care

"Well, I... I like... I love... you." Ash confessed. He closed his eyes tightly, expecting the ever so trusty mallet to make contact with is head.

When it didn't, he looked up and saw Misty smiling ear to ear.

"Ash..." (VERY smart thing to say, huh?)

'Cause I'm feeling nervous

Trying to be so perfect

'Cause I know you're worth it

Misty closed the short distance between them with a (yep you guessed it) kiss.

(Chorus)

"I love you too, Ash" Misty said.

What's wrong with my tongue

These words keep slipping away

I stutter I stumble

Like I've got nothing to say.

(Chorus)

--The End--

Hope ya enjoyed, I'm gonna go eat, bye.
