A/N well guys I want to do a one-short for Christmas that is set in season 1 or 2 guys and girls with a lot of pokeshipping for ya and some NaruSaku as well which I hope that you all love. After all I did want this to come out sooner thanks to the Last which I hear is not doing well, but hey I could be wrong I wanted to make this since the next few weeks I will be busy so I thought I would do this for you all.

Christmas special

Snow fell heavily outside, beautiful ice crystals swirling in the frosty night air. Inside it was warm and warm, the room buzzing with conversation and cheer. Ash raised an eyebrow, looking outside the window and then back to the crowd inside. His heart hammered anxiously in his chest and was accompanied by a warm feeling that made him strangely happy.

But what was causing those feelings? Could it be Christmas? Was it the excitement of getting presents and the joy and fun of the party? Maybe it was the delightful snow and the impatience for day to break so he could play in it.

There's a feeling I'm getting

I just can't explain

Making me glad tonight

Maybe it's Christmas,

Maybe the snow

Maybe the mistletoe

'No.' Ash answered himself, knowing that those weren't the reasons for his unexplainable excitement. Something suddenly caught his eye and his heart skipped a beat. This must be the reason! He turned to see the object of his emotions.

His eyes widened and he felt his face turn red. 'This is what's making me so happy?' The noise from the party was now distorted and faded, all Ash could see was the mistletoe and all he could hear was his own heartbeat.

Slowly, step by step, he walked towards the mistletoe, drawn to it like a Venomoth to a flame he looked over as he saw that Naruto was trying his best to get Sakura under some mistletoe, which made him laugh lightly.

"Come on Sakura-chan." Naruto said with a grin crossed over his face. "It's a party some come on and dance."

Sakura on the other hand was not failing for the trick that Naruto was trying to pull as she saw where he was trying to take her. "No you don't Naruto, I know what you're trying to do, and I won't fall for it you hear." She said with a huff and crossed her arms over her chest.

Naruto just gave the girl a playful grin at her, as he acted like he didn't know what she was talking about. "What are you talking about Sakura all I want is a little dance." Naruto replied still trying to act innocent.

However Sakura just looked over to where Misty was and knew the redhead was looking at her, and all Sakura could do was hope that Naruto saw Misty was there right now. "But Naruto there is something you need to know." Sakura started as she looked at her team-mate and friend. "Misty is already there, and I think that she is waiting for Ash so shouldn't we let them kiss." Sakura said as she gave Naruto a grin as she knew that he had stopped. "And we both know how Ash is, so shouldn't we try to help them."

Once she had said this Sakura saw the look that Naruto had in his eyes and knew that his inner prankster was thinking of something to use on the two. "Oh Sakura-chan why did you have to go and say something like that?" he asked and looked over to Ash, and saw that he was doing the best that he could to keep away from Misty and the mistletoe. "Alright Sakura chan I'm in. Operation lets get them to kiss is a go." Naruto said as he punched a fits into the air.

Misty's sea green eyes scanned the party, picking out familiar faces in the crowd. One of the Nurse Joys, Brock-unaware that Joy was behind him, Professor Oak, Tracey, many other faces-but no Ash. Wondering where the reckless Pokémon trainer could be, she searched for him.

During her search the mistletoe caught her eye. She stared at it, her heart thudding with a yearning ache and color appearing on her cheeks. 'Ash…' The secret hidden in her heart screamed to get out, splashing her with a powerful wave of emotion.

There's a secret I'm keeping, that no one can hear

I'm feeling deep in my heart

Maybe this Christmas my true love will show

Under the mistletoe

Ash had made it to the mistletoe and stood under it, not knowing what to do now or why he was there. Who exactly am I waiting for? He wondered and looked around. The noises of the party had returned and so he was more aware of his surroundings.

Jolly Old St. Nicholas

Before the night is through

There's something very special that I'd like to say to you

Merry, Merry Christmas

And I'd like you to know

Misty just smiled as she too looked around as her Pokémon were also enjoying the party. "Now you be good Togepi." Misty said as the little egg Pokémon gave a happy chirp to her mother.

I'm hoping that I meet someone under the mistletoe

Sakura on the other hand just at her two friends that she had gotten to know since she came to this world and smiled as she saw that Misty was standing under the mistletoe and knew what she was planning, and she couldn't help but smile at the red head. "Hi Misty this sure is an awesome a party huh." Sakura said as she moved over to her friend, as Sakura made sure not to get under the mistletoe her self as that was the last thing she needed right now.

Misty just giggled as she nodded at Sakura and looked over to Naruto. "I see that Naruto tried to get you under the mistletoe?"

Sakura just looked at Misty with a shocked face. "Oh come on Misty that is not funny you know." Sakura said as Misty saw the girls face starting to go red.

However all Misty could do was laugh even more than she was before as she looked at Sakura, as Sakura raised an eyebrow at her friend as she wondered what was so funny. "What's so funny Misty?"

Misty simple crossed her arms as she looked at the pink hair girl with a cheeky smile. "Oh Sakura, I can tell just by how red your face is right now." Misty replied with a grin forming. "We girls know after all."

With one last smiled Misty left Sakura as she needed to be ready.

Now there's a crowd at the party

Our friends are all here

Everyone's warm and bright

Maybe I'll meet him where hearts are aglow

Under the mistletoe

Maybe I'll just stand here

And no one will know

I'm under the mistletoe

"Wow. This party sure is crowded." He said aloud and noticed the food on the tables. "Hey wait a minute! There are Christmas cookies over there! Let's go get some Pikachu!" Ash said excitedly, his eyes becoming bubbly.

"Pika!" Pikachu agreed with equal enthusiasm as Ash left his post and started towards the food. After he had taken only a few steps away from the mistletoe, Misty appeared suddenly.

"Hi Ash glad I could catch you." Misty greeted as she gave a smile to him hopping that this would work.

Ash almost jumped in surprise and he became anxious. "Oh, hi Misty." He said nervously. He was very careful of the mistletoe a few steps behind him and started to sweat. 'Of course it was Misty I was waiting for... But I can't do this.'

"Great party right Ash?" She continued and took a step forward while Ash in turn took a step back.

Ash froze as he realized what Misty was trying to do. She was trying to push him back under the mistletoe. "Yeah, we were just going to get something to eat." He said dismissively, looking past her at the food.

"Did you see Nurse Joy?" She asked, changing the subject.

"Y-Yeah, maybe you should go tell Brock." He joked, putting his hand on the back of his neck. Please? He begged silently.

"Yeah, maybe not Ash that is the last thing we need." Misty said with a raised eyebrow.

"Anyways, may we please pass you? We're pretty hungry." He finally asked.

"Oh... Sure." Misty sounded disappointed. She tried to step aside but Ash was already going towards that direction. He tried to then step to the other side of her but she moved to try and get out of his way. It was just an awkward process that lasted a little bit before Ash finally broke past Misty and went to the tables.

'Whew, that was close.' Ash sighed with relief as he got his food. 'I almost got caught under the mistletoe.'

Misty had spotted Ash walking under the mistletoe she was staring at. Her heart skipped a beat and surged with hope as he just stood under it. It was as if he was waiting for her. She walked towards him, Butterfree's fluttering in her stomach.

She reached him when he was a couple steps away from the mistletoe, walking somewhere. When she reached him the fear was evident on his face. She just didn't know if the fear came from being shy or that he didn't want to be kissed.

'This may be my only chance and he's so close!' Misty thought and sneakily started to push him back towards the mistletoe. Frustration hit her when he caught on to her plan and refused to budge.

She became hurt by how desperately he wanted to get away from her so when he asked to get past her, she couldn't hide her tone of hurt and disappointment.

Jolly Old St. Nicholas

Before the night is through

There's something very special that I'd like to say to you

Merry, Merry Christmas

And I'd like you to know

I'm hoping that I don't get caught under the mistletoe

After he got past her, she stared after him sadly. 'Maybe he just doesn't know how I truly feel about him.' She tried to cheer herself up hopefully. 'He may find out, you just never know…'

"These cookies are delicious!" Ash said through his cookie filled mouth, shoving another handful in.

"Pika pi!" Pikachu agreed as he stuffed his face in turn.

Ash swallowed his last mouthful of cookies. "Let's go tell Brock about these cookies!" Pikachu jumped on Ash's shoulder and the two went to look for their friend. Brock was standing among the crowd with his head down as he moped.

"Hey Brock, what's wrong?" Ash asked as he reached him.

"Pika?" Pikachu asked curiously.

"Nurse Joy rejected me." Brock said sadly.

"Hmm? I thought you would be used to that by now. Come on! You should go get some Christmas cookies, they should cheer you up!"

Brock was unsure for a second but then his head suddenly popped up and he grinned excitedly. "Maybe I can share a cookie with Joy!" He danced off.

Ash blinked and then shrugged, looking for more people to tell about the cookies. Everyone seemed to have cookies on their plates. Ash frowned in disappointment. He wanted to spread cookie joy. Then he saw Misty without a plate and smiled. Maybe he could spread cookie joy after all. He walked towards her, forgetting what had happened earlier.

Now there's a crowd at the party

Our friends are all here

Everyone's warm and bright

Maybe he'll find out

You just never know

Naruto on the other hand was getting ready as he looked over to Sakura as the two ninja nodded as Sakura was already holding another mistletoe in her hand just in case Ash decided to run off from Misty, the two already had a radio on them so that they could talk to each other.

"Alright Sakura chan I'm ready, what about you?" Naruto whispered into his radio.

With a light laugh on the other side Sakura just gave a light laugh. "Well I'm all set got some more mistletoe from Mrs Ketchum and she was more than happy to help when I told her what we are planning." Sakura said as she was already on the ceiling as she began, too look around the party for her to targets and soon smiled as she saw them. "Naruto I see them remember we need to wait." Sakura said with a whisper.

Maybe I'll stand here

Maybe I'll go

Ash just looked around once more as he saw Naruto he was talking but to who he had no idea as he needed to be on the lookout for Misty.

"Alright there getting closer to each other." Sakura said with a grin on her face as she watched what was going on.

Maybe this Christmas

I might let him know

Misty was looking around and began to wonder what happened to Sakura as she had last seen her talking to Ash's mum and that was the last time she had seen the girl. "I just wonder where Sakura went off too." Misty asked as she looked around the room and only saw Naruto who looked like he was saying something but with the music on it was hard to hear what he was saying.

Maybe this Christmas

I might just get... Uh oh...

When Misty saw him walking towards her, her face brightened. 'This is it.'

"Hi Ash, did you get something to eat?" Misty asked when Ash reached her. "Uh, yeah-" Ash started, about to tell her about the cookies but pausing when her expression changed.

She stared at him with half closed eyes, a soft smile on her face. "Um, Ash?" She asked sweetly. "Did you realize we're standing under the mistletoe?"

"Huh?" Ash asked dumbly, looking up to see the plant of doom in between them. "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" He screamed with wide eyes and a scarlet face.

"Ash! Where are you going?" Misty yelled angrily at Ash as he bolted away.

"I'm going to get some Christmas cookies!" Ash called without stopping.

"You just got some cookies!" Misty snapped.

"I-I know, come on Pikachu!"

"What's his problem Pikachu?" Misty growled, glowering at Ash.

"Pika." Pikachu twitched his ears.

"Come on Pikachu!" Ash yelled as he looked down at his friend.

"Uh, Ash Watch out for-" Misty tried to warn him but was too late.

Ash wasn't looking where he was going and ran right into a table, stumbling and falling face first into the cake wile also knocking over some of the other food.

"Never mind..." She said.

Watching the two trainers were both Sakura and Naruto gave a sigh at what they saw and knew that they needed to now put their plan into action before Ash ran away. "Hey Ash let me help you up." He said as he looked up to Sakura and gave a node and a smile.

Sakura just nodded as she moved to where Ash and Naruto was and watched as she saw Misty was making her way over to the two. "Ash, are you alright?" Misty asked as she moved closer to him.

"Yeah..." Ash began as he started to get up and saw the frown that was on Misty's face. "I'm alright."

"Well good, so why did you run off like that?" She asked as she crossed her arms over her chest and gave Ash a little scowl.

Ash on the other hand just began to get very nervous as he saw the look on Misty's face as he started to back away from her not knowing that right behind him Naruto was smiling away, as he saw Sakura right about Ash and Misty with the mistletoe in hand as she made her way above the two.

"Well Ash I want to know as well?" Naruto said has he looked over at Ash with a grin on his face. "I mean I thought that what your meant to do kiss the one that under the mistletoe?" He asked with a goofy grin.

"Well you see Uhmmm." Ash said as he tried the best that he could to at least think of a reason as to why he didn't kiss Misty.

However all Naruto did was smile more and more and Misty began to wonder what he was smiling about and she soon looked up and saw Sakura holding onto some mistletoe and smiling down. "Hey you two what's up?" She asked with a grin as Ash looked up and he soon saw what Sakura was holding.

The moment Ash saw that mistletoe in Sakura's hand his face went blue as Naruto was stopping him from running away. "Sorry Ash I'm not one for the rules but with this one well I think I will follow it."

When Ash heard this from Naruto he just shot the blonde ninja a look that said I will be getting you and Sakura back for this some how and he was going to make sure that he did as well. But right now he needed to deal with the present situation at hand, and that was Misty and the mistletoe that was above the two.

He could already see the blush that was forming on Misty's face and he may not have been that smart but he could tell that she was a little embarrassed by all this. "Look Misty let's just get this over with as fast as we can." Ash said as his face started to go red and looked away, not sure really what else to say.

Misty simple nodded as she looked up at Sakura, once Ash was not looking at her that is and smiled up at her. "Thank you." Misty mouthed to her friend as Sakura simple smiled back as Misty closed her eyes along with Ash as both moved closer and closer to each other with many of their friends watching the two knowing that in a moment their lips would be touching the others something that was making many smile.

A/N, well guys that is the end of the chapter a little short I know but I was debating a long time on should I have Ash and Misty kiss but in the end I thought that they should and all thanks to ourtwo ninja lol and yes I know many of you hate me right now for not showing or in this case telling the kiss lol but hey later on the really will kiss same with Sakura and Naruto you all need to wait for it is all.
