Chapter 2 IN THE HOSPITAL
I sat by Ash thinking about what happened last night. I hoped he would be okay. He looks really calm and quiet when he's sleeping. A whole different Ash.
"Ash," I whispered, "I want to sing you this song, even if you're sleeping I want you to hear it."
Out
here in the quiet of the night,
Beneath the stars and moon
We
both know we've got somethin' on our minds
We won't admit, but
it's true
You look at me, I look away.
I wanna tell you
what I'm feeling, but I
don't know how to start
I wanna tell
you, but now I'm afraid that
you might break my heart
Oh, why
should anything so easy, ever be so hard to do?
I wanna tell you
what I'm feeling, and to
say that, I love you.
I practice
all the things that I could say,
Line by line, every word
I
tell myself today could be the day,
But every time, I lose my
nerve
I look at you, you look away
I wanna tell you
what I'm feeling, but I
don't know how to start
I wanna tell
you, but now I'm afraid that
you might break my heart
Oh, why
should anything so easy, ever be so hard to do?
I wanna tell you
what I'm feeling, and to
say that, I love you.
Why, do you
turn away?
It must be, you're afraid like me
I try, but I can't
pretend that I
Don't feel for you the way I do
Can't you
see?
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, but I
don't know
how to start
I wanna tell you, but now I'm afraid that
you
might break my heart
Oh, why should anything so easy, ever be so
hard to do?
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling, and to
say that,
I love you.
I started crying again, (I need to stop) then fell asleep.
"Hnn, Misty?" He looked around and saw Misty sleeping next to him. "I thought I heard you singing. I guess I'm hearing things." He didn't realize that Misty had woken up as soon as he spoke.
"Ash,"
"Misty, you're up." He sat up and winced. "Brock kicks pretty hard." (A failed attempt at a joke.)
"Ash, I'm so so sorry about everything."
"That's okay. But, were you singing a minute ago?"
"Yes. Did you hear all the words?"
"I did." He was sitting up straight and looked serious. "If you meant that Misty-"
She had cut him of with an "Of course." He started to fidget.
"When you and Brock had started going out, I got really jealous, because… because… I love you."
He was blushing furiously. Misty was on the verge of crying again when a sudden, evil grin appeared on Ash's face .
"Misty, you owe me."
Misty.
I got the hint immediately. But what should I do? Ash is just sitting there smiling at me. Oh! I have an idea……………
Ash.
When I had said, 'you owe me' she looked confused at first, then it clicked. She grinned at me and climbed up on my bed. I can tell that she's afraid to hurt me. She straddled me and kissed me. Her kisses are amazing. It was soft and warm and her lips are incredibly smooth. I pulled away to look in her eyes then I pulled her close and kissed her again and again. I moved to kiss her neck, her skin smells good, when I licked it, I felt something warm where she was straddling me. I was excited up and felt myself get a little harder. I pushed away and said, "We'll finish this when I'm better.
