Chapter 1: Telling Her
Today, we find Ash, Brock, May, Max, and Misty gathered around a campfire in the woods. Misty had gotten released from her prison that was the gym when Ash and Co. came to visit.
"So," May asked. "Where to next?"
"Let's see." Max said looking at the Pokenav. "Why don't we head to Pallet?"
"That sounds good." Ash said. "Mom would be happy."
"Yeah." Misty agreed. "I miss Mrs. Ketchem's cooking."
"Hey Mist?" Ash asked. "Can I have a word with you?"
"Sure." Misty said leaning in.
"Alone." Ash added.
Brock and Pikachu gave each other a look.
"O…Okay?" Misty asked confused.
The two trainers left the campfire. After they left, Brock and Pikachu suddenly crossed their fingers and arms (like they do in the Parent Trap) while closing their eyes as if in prayer.
"What's wrong Brock?" May asked.
"Please admit it. Please admit it." Brock chanted.
"Brock's hoping Ash will tell Misty his feelings for her." Max translated.
"Oh. I hope so." May said. "If they argue one more time…I'm going to take drastic action and play matchmaker."
"What do you think Pikachu, Tracey and I have been trying to do?" Brock asked her.

By a lake,
"Sure is beautiful." Misty said as she looked at the moon's reflection on the water.
"Yes you are." Ash said.
Misty turned to him wondering if she heard right.
"I mean…." Ash started to correct, "IT is."
"Oh." Misty said disappointed
"Misty?" Ash tried.
"Yes Ash?"
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why did you follow me? And don't say it was that stupid bike."
"It was NOT a stupid bike!" She started to argue.
"Yes it was. Because you got the bike back, you had to leave!"
"No! Because my sisters won that stupid trip, I had had to leave! Besides, you didn't seem to have a problem with me leaving."
"Only because you didn't."
"I did too!"
"Well, so did I!"
Before either of them knew it, Ash had pulled Misty into a kiss.
"Did that just happen?" Misty asked when they pulled out.
"I have no idea." Ash said in just as much shock. "I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"In case that kiss DID happen."
"Why are you sorry? I liked it."
"You did?"
This time, Misty pulled Ash into the kiss.
