Chapter4:Awkward
Ash's Pov
I didn't understand why you had to look into a girls eyes but I wasn't going to say no to Misty either and face her wrath of not taking this seriously. So I did
what I was told and focused in on her eyes. They were a clear ocean blue with flecks of green going through them.
Aquamarine. I noticed how they just sparkled from the moons rays. They were just so beautiful to look at I nearly forgot that I was staring at a person and that
person was ..Misty. I didn't just look at her eyes though. I looked over her face in general. Her creamy skin, her hair that actually looked like it was on fire, My
gaze then dropped to her luscious lips. They were so soft ,so pink and they were just so kissable. I then brought my gaze back up to her eyes, I could gaze
at her eyes forever but her fiery red strands started to block my view and without my own consent to, I tucked the stray hairs behind her ear gently so I
could see those amazingly perfect orbs of hers again. "You didn't have to do that" She murmured. But before I knew what was happening I was inching my face
closer to hers and whispering back "But I wanted to"
Beeeeeeep!,Beeeeeep! The sudden intrusion of noise brought Misty and I to our senses and we leapt apart. I looked around to find the culprit, but found
my phone buzzing in my pocket. I looked to see who it was and found it was my mom calling. Wondering why she was calling me I checked what the time
was 00:45."Shit" was all I could say before scrambling to my feet and then turning around to help Misty up. But when I did turn around I could only see the outline of
her being heading down towards the exit of our meadow."Misty!?"I shouted after her but without even turning around she yelled back "Its late I'll see you later!"
and then she was gone.
To be honest I was glad she had gone I didn't know what to make of our little moment and I doubt she did either. I have no idea what got into me it's like I
had no control over myself, staring into her eyes is something I should never do again to Misty. Oh God and Misty! what does she think about she is
probably so freaked out by me. I ask her to help me with Dawn and then nearly Kis.. I can't even think it, how would I ever be able to say it out loud! First thing
tomorrow I have got to apologize, I really hope she doesn't hate me.
Misty's Pov
WE NEARLY KISSED! If it wasn't for that stupid phone...What am I saying? I should love that phone it saved me from making a brutal mistake with Ash.
So when Ash got up and turned away I knew I had to get out of there. I grabbed my stuff and ran down the meadow to get home I could hear him call after
me but I didn't stop and just yelled out an excuse I hope he caught. He'd probably want to know what's going on or what happened and I honestly
don't know what I would tell him. Oh god I wish I knew what he was thinking, Does he hate me? Is he freaked out by me? or the unlikeliest Did he want to
kiss me? NO! Get that thought out your head Misty he was asking you for help with Dawn and you blew it! I highly doubt I would win friend of the year award at
this moment. Maybe a good night's sleep will help me solve my facing Ash
problems, well might as well find out.
This morning I have decided two things: The first thing I have decided about my facing Ash problems is I am not going to face Ash and I am just going to lie
low for a few days so the memory of our moment won't be as fresh. The second thing I plan to do this morning is when Ash finds me which I know
he will (but I'm going to try hide from him anyway)is to say we were caught in the moment and that was natural and act nonchalant about it even though it
will possibly kill me to say that our moment didn't mean anything. I was already for school on time this morning, dressed in my usual attire and
bag in hand. I headed out the door to where Paul was waiting for me. Cranky as ever because I know he's in a mood when he has no music on.
So I have to be bit more quite about what I say when Paul's in a mood. I maybe scary when I'm mad but I'm nothing compared to Paul when he's
angry.
"Hey" I say softly. Paul grunted in response and started to drive hating the awkward tense air between us I decided to break it with pointless dribble "So
have you heard about Ash and Dawns date?"I ask. "yup-p" He says emphasizing the "P" "I'm really happy for Ash he finally got the girl" I say
honestly even though a piece of me crumbles inside because he's going to be happy with another girl instead of me. "pu-lease" Paul muttered harshly but
continued "I don't know what ash sees in that girl, to me all she seems to do is cause trouble, Troublesome Girl" He says the last part while clenching his
hands on the steering so hard that his knuckles turns white. "why do you care so much about Dawn?" I questioned but then the realization hit me "You like
her" I stated, it wasn't a question but Paul sure as hell wouldn't let it go without out an answer. "What no way! She just got in the way of you and Ash
being together" this made me smile sadly at him and I decided to let the Dawn thing go. In a mood or not Paul shows his brotherly side by wrapping an arm
around my shoulder while keeping his other hand on the steering wheel. This comforting action caused me to rest my head on his shoulder and we
continued are decent to school.
Most of the school day was a blur, It was hard work avoiding Ash and apparently he was on the search for me. Usually I'd love it if Ash was looking
for me it makes me feel wanted but not today. I wish he'd stop searching for me to make it a bit easier. He finally caught me when I was talking to Paul
about our fast and furious movie marathon on Wednesday. He tapped my shoulder surprising me because I thought I was in the clear "Can I talk to you
for a sec?"I looked into his brown eyes and knew I could never say no to him So I looked over at Paul apologetically "I'll be in the car" he muttered and
walked off.
Ash caught my hand and lead me into an empty classroom. We stood there for a few minutes and for the first time in our friendship there was an awkward
silence between us. That was one of my fears would happen and I hadn't even told him how I felt."I'm sorry" the words startled me causing me to turn my head
in his direction swiftly. He was looking down at his feet ashamed."I don't know what happened and after the moment, the phone call, you leaving
and avoiding me all d-" "I wasn't avoiding you" I interrupted only to receive a raised eyebrow "O-ok I was avoiding you but only because I thought you were
mad at me" I admitted now looking away ."Misty I could never be mad at you" His tone was sweet and sincere and made my heart flutter.
"besides it was my fault please don't think I'm a jerk" he said this after catching my face and turning my head to look up at him "I don't think it was
either of our faults I just think we got lost in the moment" I murmured getting lost once again in his sweet eyes. "ya, that's probably it" he said quietly while
looking intently into my eyes. I couldn't let this happen again so before anything could, I pulled away out of his grasp "Anyway.." I blushed a cherry
pink."Before you interrupted us, Paul and I were discussing our movie marathon this month its Fast and Furious your coming for it tomorrow right?"
I asked."For the past eight years I have never once missed it, you think I would break that record now?" he joked. "ok see you tomorrow" I smiled and headed out
the classroom door when a realisation hit me."Oh and Ash .."He looked over at me. He looked like he'd been thinking seriously when I had interrupted his train of
thought "ya-a?" "Good luck tonight" I plastered on a fake smile and winked at him and then left .
Ash's Pov
I had finally found Misty just as she was about to leave school. I had to fix this problem quickly because I couldn't lose her she means too much to me. She's
my best friend "Maybe more" a small voice in the back of my head murmured but I quickly shook it away as I could never think of Misty like that and meant
to think of Dawn like that and only Dawn.
After apologizing and sorting things out. There came a moment where I was caught looking deep into Misty's beautiful eyes once again. Those weird feelings I had
the night before came back to me and a warm sensation filled my stomach. I didn't want to pull away in fact I wanted to get closer to her. But she did pull away and
that warmth I felt in the pit of my stomach disappeared with it. We organized that our movie marathon was tomorrow and then she left. All these questions started
flooding through my head about me and my feelings, about Misty and just about us in general. Those questions were interrupted when Misty's voice floated by my
ears "Oh and Ash.."I turned to her"ya-a?"I was glad something had managed to tumble out of my mouth. "Good luck tonight" She smiled, winked at me and left.
I never thought I could feel disappointment for someone being happy for me especially if that person was Misty.
Later that night
It was just before my date with Dawn and I was nevous as hell. How do you know if a girls right for you? Misty said through eye contact but I need
something else to depend on if I am going to ask her to go out with me. That's when an idea hit me.. Paul! He's brutally honest and girls somehow manage to
like his sorry ass. So I called him. "Hello" a snappy grunt echoed from my phone."Hey Paul its Ash, I need
advice" He sighed "I thought you were meant to be on a date with ..trouble" He said that last part irritably. "I need to know how I'll know if Dawns right for
me?" He groaned obviously frustrated with my denseness "When you kiss her like in movies you should feel fireworks or a fire being unleashed within
you" "o-okay Paul thanks" hanging up the phone while still trying to comprehend what those feelings would feel like.
Even later that night
I had finally put my friends theories to the test. Looking her in the eyes and then kissing her. But if Paul's theory was correct I didn't feel anything when I
kissed her. It wasn't that she wasn't a good kisser, it's just that I didn't feel what Paul had described. But it was our first kiss and I'm still confused about
Misty. It's not like anything can happen between me and Mist. No matter How badly I would want it to.
