---------------------------------Island Day 2------------------------------------------

Misty yawned, stretching. She paused, why was something wrapped around her stomach and pressed against her back? Why was she on sand? She remembered yesterday's events to answer the second question, but for the first she had no idea why that happened. She looked down, surprised to see arms wrapped around her stomach; she had a bad feeling about who they belonged to. She turned around and was greeted with a warm, muscular bare chest, looking up she saw Gary's face. She started blushing profusely. One reason being that she was being held by Gary, the other because she liked it. She scolded herself in her mind and attempted to get loose of his arms, but the moment she pulled back, his arms tightened. Misty was aware someone was watching them, when she heard a giggle. She looked around and spotted Amy sitting next to Alex, who was still asleep. Misty glared at her.

"Help me!" she hissed. Amy giggled again and nodded, coming behind Misty and pulling on Gary's arms while Misty pushed backwards. His arms finally came apart when Misty and Amy went flying backwards, landing tangled together. They giggled when Gary shot up like a bullet, eyes wide.

"What? What's wrong?" he asked frantically searching the island until his eyes landed on the giggling girls. His eyes softened when he realized they were in no danger.

"You wouldn't let go of me. I had to get Amy to pull on your arms while a pushed away." Misty giggled. Gary blushed brightly, he didn't remember putting his arms around her, he did vaguely remember feeling cold and dragging something warm towards him before falling back asleep.

"Sorry." he muttered, looking away, towards the sun. "Whoa, I wonder what time it is." Gary said, the sun was only a little bit up.

"I don't know, but I'm tired, I'm going back to sleep, Misty woke me up with all the ruckus she was making." Amy grinned good-natured.

"Sorry." Misty grinned sheepishly. Amy waved a hand at her, telling her everything was good, and crawled back over to snuggle under the tablecloth with Alex, instantly falling back asleep. "They're so cute." Misty murmured, smiling softly when Alex put a protective arm over his sister. In between Misty, Gary, and the kids were the pokemon, all still asleep.

"Yeah." Gary agreed, "Hey, if you're not going back to bed, we could watch the sunrise and you could see how it's more beautiful then the sunset." Gary offered, shifting his eyes to Misty. Misty looked back at him and smiled again.

"I'd like that." she nodded. Gary took her hand and led her towards an outcropping of rocks sprouting out from the beach, plopping down on them when he got to the end and pulling Misty down with him. He let go of her hand, making her shiver. It felt like something was missing. She shook her head and leaned back, resting on her hands with her legs crossed. Gary sat Indian style, he cautiously leaned back on his hands, at the same time putting his hand over Misty's. She looked over to him, but he was smiling, looking at the sun. Misty smiled softly and turned back towards the sun. "You're right, it's more beautiful than the sunset." Misty said, admiring the sunrise.

"Yes.....it is." Gary murmured, he wasn't looking at the sunset, he was looking at Misty. Misty didn't notice and continued looking at the sunrise. Umbereon grinned to himself, running back to the beach silently and telling all the other pokemon of their masters. The pokemon wanted the two to get together, badly and all cheered quietly when they heard the news, as not to wake up Alex and Amy. Eventually Misty and Gary made there way back to the beach where Alex and Amy were still sleeping, that is, after the sun had risen.

"What are we going to do today?" Misty whispered to him.

"I say we explore and start building a more permanent shelter." Gary muttered back. They were trying to not wake Amy and Alex, but Alex leaned up, yawning, which automatically woke up Amy.

"What's hanging?" Alex asked, "And what's for breakfast?" he added, stretching.

"You're choice, coconut or the other clam, oh, or coconut." Gary rolled his eyes. Misty slapped his arm and he winced, when did she get so strong.

"Coconut." Amy chose absentmindedly. Misty shrugged and grabbed three of the huge coconuts. Gary thought up some plans on how to make a more permanent shelter, making a few notes in the sand while Alex and Amy chatted sleepily.

"Can you cut these coconuts in half?" Misty asked Umbreon politely. The pokemon seemed to grin.

"Umb, umbre, umbreon!" Umbreon chirped. Sure thing, Future Master in LawThe other pokemon giggled. This seemed to snap Gary out of his thoughts.

"Umbreon!" he scolded. Umbreon ignored him and sliced the coconuts. Misty looked at the pokemon and trainer questionably, but shrugged and let it drop. After eating their breakfast, Gary turned the attention to himself, by clearing his throat.

"Okay, I said earlier that we would need a shelter and we do. But, we aren't sure what's in the forest, so we need to decide, take the risk of building something on the ground, or play it safe by building a house in the trees. A house on the ground would be easier to build, but pretty much every type of pokemon could get in. A house in the trees would take much longer to build and be harder to build. The amount of time it takes for us to build, really doesn't matter though, because I don't see a random storm coming along any time soon." he walked over to a tree, "Knock on wood, of course."

"Yeah, but a treehouse, so to speak, would be alot safer, only some pokemon could get in." Misty pointed out.

"Plus, a treehouse would be more fun." Amy contributed. Gary rolled his eyes.

"Obviously, then, we're building a 'treehouse', but we need to at least get a general idea of the forest first." he glanced at them, "Alex can come with me and Umbereon, Dodrio, and Arcanine. Girls, you, Blastoise, Azurill, Polietoed, and Dewgong can stay here, and Misty can direct the pokemon and try and get some fish." Gary nodded to himself.

"Who made you leader?" Misty asked, putting her hands on her hips. Amy copied her. Gary sighed.

"They want to come, obviously." Alex chuckled. Gary pulled Misty aside.

"Come on Mist, I need someone to fish." Gary soothed.

"Yeah, well why can't you do that?" she crossed her arms stubbornly.

"Because," Gary sighed, "I'm the only one who has some insight in building and we all can't go in the forest together, and we can't go together and leave Alex and Amy alone." Gary explained. Misty huffed, his logic was nearly fool proof.

"Fine." she finally agreed, "But, next time, I'm coming with you!" Misty demanded.

"Of course." Gary smirked as he remembered the game they started yesterday, he stalked closer to her, until she backed into a tree, "Believe me," his breath fanned across her face, "I'd like for you to come with me next time." he whispered in her ear, his lips slipping passed her cheek as he pulled away and headed back to Amy and Alex. Misty let out a breath, scowling as she remembered the game also, knowing he wasn't going to let it go. She walked back behind him and informed Amy they were staying there to fish.

"But why?" Amy whined as soon as the two boys left.

"Because he won me over with his logic." Misty explained, she turned to the pokemon, "Now, this should be interesting." she sighed, clapping her hands together.

A/N: Next time some quality bonding between the girls and between the boys.
