ABOUT A GIRL
Michael led the way through the forest, Dawn following close behind, trying to find where May and Ash landed.
"Hey you guys!" called out a voice.
Michael and Dawn turned around and saw May and Ash running over to meet them.
"Hey Ash, May did you guys land all right?" Michael asked them
"Yeah, it was amazing, and you?" May said
"We landed alright, right Dawn?" Michael looked over at her; she had a smile on her face.
"Yeah, like I said, no need to worry" Dawn flashed a thumbs up, Ash and Michael looked at each other nervously.
"Come on, we better find a place to camp out, seeing as we're not going to reach the Pokemon center before night fall" Ash started to walk into the forest "Besides we don't even know how far we are."
After walking for hours it seemed all of them were tired and restless...and hungry.
May's stomach grumbled "oh I'm so hungry"
"Me too" Michael said "When we get back to the Pokemon center, the first thing I want is food…" he looked at his shirt and sniffed it. "Aw, and a shower"
May laughed "That's right, you haven't taken a shower since…." She remembered the night Michael fell and how horrible it was to watch one of her friends like that.
"It's okay May, hey wait, I know," Michael reached into his jacket and pulled out a capsule "I always carry a couple extra shirts in here; I guess we could sleep in those tonight."
"Awesome" May exclaimed.
"Well you know" Dawn began "I'm just thankful we survived that…Michael this was all your fault!" she yelled. Everyone turned around to look at her.
"Hey wait a minute, how are you going to blame this entire thing on me?"
"Because it was your Jacket that got us into this!"
"Well you know" Michael continued walking, Dawn closely followed him. "Nobody asked you to leave the Pokemon center."
"Excuse me, May and I came out here to make sure you guys didn't do anything stupid"
"Well…" Michael spun around and surprised her.
"That plan worked out perfectly didn't it? We all got kidnapped, had to jump out of a moving air ship and landed in the middle of…."
Michael looked at his surroundings not knowing what to call them "uh…in god knows where." He turned back around and continued walking.
Dawn could feel a tear starting to form in her eyes I should tell him what they…did but she held back her tear and continued to argue.
"Hey, If you hadn't ran away from the Pokemon center in the first place…" she began.
"Well hey, no need to worry right?" he stuck out his tongue playfully. Dawn put on an angry face, Michael thought it was cute and burst out laughing.
"Look" he said chuckling "why are you so obsessed with me"?" he teased her.
Dawn blushed "I am not!" she yelled
Michael turned around and grinned at her "yes you are…"
"Ok fine, maybe I am. Can I say that maybe I enjoyed that night in the forest?"
Michael looked surprised "well…I guess you can…can I say that I enjoyed it too?"
"You…. just did" Dawn told him.
Michael was also blushing now, they both stared at each others eyes.
"Well…it's still your fault" Michael said.
"No it's yours" Dawn shouted back.
"Oh yeah" Michael smiled a devilish grin at her,
"Yeah, believe it." Dawn ran to Michael and tackled him to the ground.
Both of them rolled on the ground hoping to get the advantage and get on top of the other. Even though they were struggling as hard as they could, they couldn't stop the laughter coming from them.
Michael continued rolling, getting on top of Dawn But falling off playfully laughing and giggling, leaving Dawn an opportunity to take the advantage. She placed her hands on his shoulders, pinning him to the ground, preventing any further escape attempts.
The boy was at her mercy. Her legs were on his stomach holding him down. A smirk appeared across Dawn's face. They stared into each other's eyes for a moment. Their clothes were now dirty from the dirt they were rolling in.
Dawn felt her heartbeat quicken. She flipped herself off of Michael and laid on the ground next to him.
Michael looked up and saw May and Ash staring at him with smiles on their faces. His entire face turned red, he didn't try to hide it. He knew he was caught.
Ash and May burst out laughing. Michael noticed that and couldn't keep it in any longer he laughed at the situation he was in. Dawn joined him too laughing at the events that had occurred.
Midnight. Ash, May, Michael, and Dawn have been walking through the forest for hours, not able to find a comfortable place to spend the night.
"We may have survived that crash but…." May's stomach growled loudly "how are going to survive until morning?" She asked.
"It's not much farther now, May" Ash told her.
Dawn looked up at Michael in front of her; he wasn't showing any signs of fatigue. She had an idea.
"Hey, Ash, Michael" she asked them "you guys are big strong guys aren't you?"
Ash and Michael looked at each other "um…I guess" Michael answered.
"Well how about doing May and I a favor?"
Ash looked nervously at Michael and put his hand on his head "oh man this can't be good…"
Michael hesitantly asked "what is it?"
Dawn looked over at May. May smiled and knew what she was thinking.
The girls walked up to the guys with puppy dog eyes "Carry us… pleeeeeease"
Michael and Ash fell to the ground.
"What?"
"Don't you think we're tired too?" Ash told them. The girls never looked away still staring at them sweetly.
"Quit looking at me like that, will you" Ash told them, he was starting to give in.
"Please, Ashy?" May put her arms around Ash, making him blush.
Michael sigh "ok…hop on" he pointed to his back.
"Michael!" Ash yelled at him "how could you give up so easy?!"
"Ash, the sooner we get some rest the better, a little more physical exercise isn't going to kill us."
Ash looked down "you have no idea…"he muttered under his breath.
"What was that Ash Ketchum?!" May screamed at him.
Ash looked at her apprehensively "Nothing May…climb on."
"Yay!"
May and Dawn excitedly climb on their backs.
"Oof" the boys yelled out
"Oh man" Michael said.
"Michael, what's wrong" Dawn asked him, her faced slowly formed a frown "hey are you saying I'm heavy!"
"Uh…"was all he could say.
"Yeah Ash," May looked down at Ash "are you guys saying we're heavy!"
"Let's go" Ash quickly walked on through the woods.
May took Ash's hat off his head and placed it on hers "Go Pikachu" she said "Use thunderbolt!"
"Very funny" Ash told her. May giggled pretending to be him.
Dawn took Michael's jacket and put it on, sniffing it slightly
"Wow. Michael you may stink but your jacket always smells good." May and Dawn burst out laughing.
Ash and Michael sighed.
"Man this going to be a long night" Ash said
"For sure" Michael added.
1:00 am still no sign of a comfortable place to sleep. Ash and Michael were falling asleep but were being waken up constantly by May and Dawn's jokes.
"I don't get it, Michael" Dawn told him "You and Ash eat like maniacs but still you're so skinny" She wrapped her arms around him tighter.
"I know," May added "you guys eat whatever you want and never gain and ounce."
"Just lucky I guess" Michael yawned.
2:30 am after walking for five hours in the night in thick forest and carrying their friends, Ash and Michael finally collapsed in the only clearing in the entire forest, their location unknown.
Michael kissed the ground "We made it, oh I've never been so happy in my entire life" he cried.
"I'll never take for granted a nice warm bed again" cried Ash.
"Oh, it's so dramatic, eh" May and Dawn playfully stuck their tongues out at them.
Michael took the capsule from his pants pocket and pushed the button on the top of it, out popped four large t-shirts and an extra large sleeping bag.
"Michael are you sure it's okay for me and Dawn to wear your clothes?" May asked him.
"Yeah it's okay" Michael sat and pressed his back to a tree. "All of our clothes are dirty, besides your only gonna use them for one day and you need something comfortably to sleep in."
Michael handed May and Dawn two shirts and tossed one to Ash.
"Okay but you guys better not peak when were changing!" May warned them, half jokingly
"We won't" Ash told her "we're going to be putting our shirts on."
"Be back in a second" Dawn told them.
Ash and Michael quickly took off their dirty shirts and tossed them aside, pulling over their clean shirts, feeling more comfortable.
They laid down on the ground using their dirty shirts as pillows, staring deep in to the night's sky.
"What a day" Ash said quietly.
"Yeah, some story this is going to be" Michael told him.
"I wonder how Brock, Max and everyone else is doing; we haven't seen them in a while now." Ash thought about his friends still at the Pokemon center. Probably worried sick about us he thought.
"Hey Ash?" Michael asked him. "You think after this whole experience…that we're still dense on love?"
"If its one thing I'll never understand it'll be love" Ash told him.
I'll never forget
On that day we first met
I never thought
That I could depend
On my friends
Until the end
I wasn't there
I didn't care
Feeling lost
And never found,
My whole world
Spiraling down
That was of course until I met you
I'm so excited
I can't wait to see her again
My best friend
"More that just friends"
Could this be true?
And just maybe
Love isn't so hard to learn
I'm not sure…
"Wow, where did you hear that?"
Michael and Ash looked up, May and Dawn had come back, dressed in Michael shirts, reaching down to their knees.
"Michael" Dawn asked him again "that was beautiful, who is it by?"
"Me…" Michael said shyly, he didn't realize anybody was listening in on him. "I wrote it."
"Oh…" Dawn sat next to him, eyeing Michael. "SO…who is she?"
Michael backed up "who?" he said pretending not to know.
"That girl you were singing about…" Dawn sat next to him and inched closer to his face "You know…that she's more than a friend" Dawn kept pushing him, hoping to reveal his love.
Michael looked at the ground blushing, hoping to escape. "Nobody" he said.
"Any girl I might know?" she asked.
"No."
"Okay, I'm just teasing you Michael" she ran her fingers through his wild hair and stood up.
"Besides I think I already know who it might be…"
Michael looked up, his eyes wide open. "What!?!" he said. Dawn giggled and ran off. Michael stood up and followed her.
"Dawn wait!"
Ash stood up and began to follow them "wait you two, don't go far!"
"Wait, Ash!" May yelled out to Ash. "Don't leave, they'll be fine!"
I better stay with her, I can't leave her alone.
Ash walked back and sat down next to May. "Ash I need to tell you something…" she began.
"What is it?"
"I can't thank you and Michael enough for rescuing Dawn and me."
"No problem, May we couldn't leave you up there with those awful guys."
"You have no idea…" May said softly, her tears starting to form in her eyes.
"May what is it?"
"Those guys they…tried to…" May voice sounded frightened and distressing, her tears couldn't be held back any longer.
Ash took her hand. She lay her head on his shoulder "Its okay May, you don't have to be afraid"
May sobbed into his sweatshirt, the comfortable warmth of her loved one soothing her,
"They touched me…Me and Dawn" she whispered, still frightened.
"It's alright, May," Ash tried to comfort her. "Their not gonna touch you, anymore." He ran his fingers though her hair trying to straighten it out to the familiar style he associated with her.
"I was so scared, Ash…" she whispered into his sweatshirt.
"I'm here, May," he reassured her, placing her head on his shoulder. "No one is going to try to hurt you."
"You don't have to worry," Ash smiled back at her, his dark hair pressing down to the sides of his face.
"Ash… I…" May smiled back at him, blushing.
"I love you, May," Ash said to the girl in his arms.
"I love you, too, Ash," she responded,
Their love for each other overcame them and slowly their lips inched toward each other.
May felt protected and out of harm's way being held in his arms, surrounded by her friends, she felt safe in a world so cold and so untrusting.
"Ash?"
"Yeah, May?"
"Thanks for being there for me..."
"No problem May...just us two together..."
Michael and Dawn returned a short while later. Ash looked at their faces, so serious yet gloomy.
I guess Dawn must have told him too.
They sat down next to Ash and May, still in each others arms.
"May…" Ash whispered quietly into her ear "You and Dawn better climb into the sleeping bag and get some rest."
"Ash…Michael, what about you?" She softly said.
"We'll stay awake just in case…"Ash began.
"No Ash Ketchum, you guys need your rest too" May got down and opened up the sleeping bag. She pulled Ash down next to her "we'll share" she said.
Michael lay down next to Dawn, she fell asleep in his arms, he stared at the sky.
"Thank you Ash" May whispered to him. "For being there, for me"
Ash kissed her on the cheek "No problem May…I'll always be here, all of us, no matter what"
"Goodnight" she said. Ash and May slept soundly in the arms of their love.
Michael continued, deep in thought staring at the sky.
Why? He thought does this have to be so hard to understand, love… such a complicated subject…
Michael softly began to sing, slowly helping everyone drift off to slumber. He sang a soft ballad by Finger Eleven
Restless tonight
Cause I wasted the light
Between both these times
I drew a really thin line
It's nothing I planned
And not that I can
But you should be mine
Across that line
If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
Wouldn't that be something?
I promise I might
Not walk on by
Maybe next time
But not this time
Even though I know
I don't want to know
Yeah I guess I know
I just hate how it sounds
If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
Wouldn't that be something?
He turned to Dawn, running his fingers through her hair "Wouldn't that be something?" he whispered, he moved closer and gave her a kiss.
"Goodnight… you guys" he whispered
If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
"Just for one thing….This one thing…."
Michael's song as i call it, is something i wrote, it's not very long and just something i made up, not as good as my other poems, but i felt michael needed an original song of his.
