Chapter3: Don't wanna let you go

Authors Note: Do you have to put a disclaimer up in every chapter? I f you do, don't sue. I don't own these characterz.

That last chapter must hav bin confusing. Its written as a memory. Neva mind. Lets get back to the present.

"What about the last battle?" Misty asked curiously.

~You've done it now~ Ash thought.~Dug yourself into a hole. Don't talk about the kiss. Erm….~ A rememberance about the trip zapped back into his mind and he looked at the grass beneath his feet seriously. They hadnt talked about it since the presentation almost a week ago. Since then Ash had been building up his courage to tell her those three words. They were so easy to say, yet so hard.

Quote from a familiar song sung by a certain red-haird pokemon trainer:

"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."

(*But plz remember that he never heard her sing that*)

"You know about the trip, don't you?" He said gravely.

"Yes." She replied, her voice as grave as his.

"I'm sorry….I really want to take you with me…… but I cant…."

"It's okay Ash, I'd probably get in the way anyway." She said, trying to make him feel better.

Misty was slightly confused. Why was Ash concerned about her???? This was coming from the boy who thought about Pokemon 24/7. The boy who thought about nothing else, not girls (VERY UNLIKE BROCK) not football, any other hobbies, anything. Oh, except food. (How could she forget that?)

"I want to make it up to you…"Ash started, Misty hardly believing what she was hearing (Not that she didn't like it) "I know it's not much, but since we were on that island you've been going on about how lucky I was to ride on Lugia…" He went on. Misty gasped.~He's joking. He has to be….~

Ash pulled out a set of banboo pipes from his pocket and continued. "So I called in a few favours, and…" He blew on the pipes, which Misty now recongised as Melodys'. (Movie 2.) A tune erupted from them, and the whole field went quiet, all that could be heard was the breeze brushing the trees in the late afternoon sun.

A white figure appeared in the sky, then soared down and landed in the centre of the field, the people and pokemon backing away to make room for the beast of the sea. (yes, lugia.)

It smiled, and then looked towards Ash and Misty, the latter standing in amazement. Ash had put away the pipes and was now smiling at his friend.

Lugia said two words: "Get on."

Misty smiled joyfully and climbed onto the water beast, not after tossing togepi to a very confused Brock.(Plz remember, he didn't see lugia coz he wasn't there in movie 2) Ash closely followed her, and pikachu was about to board when Brock pulled it back. Pikachu looked at him questioningly.

"Ash has something to say to her." He whispered into the electric mouses' ear. Then winked, if it was humanely possible for Brock to do that.(*Brock knows more than he lets on, methinks.*) Pikachu smiled understandingly.

"Pi, pika pika pi." (I still want to watch though.) Pikachu commented, grinning evilly. ~Brock doesn't understand a word I say~

~Hehehehehehehe!~

Lugia got ready to take off, carrying only two passengers. As it was about to leave the ground, Pikachu darted out and grabbed hold of the tail. Lugia took off, and brock stood gawping at the disobediant Pikachu holding onto the tail. Pikachu turned and stuck his tounge out at the rock trainer. ^-^
