Oookay we have the strange Gary Ash meeting about to happen here…………… umm well it's been dark and cloudy all day just to let you know. To set the mood if you will. Oh and sorry I couldn't get it up yesterday… school……grrr well we get out early today so I should be fine!

Ash ran and ran, he didn't care where he went he just wanted to get away. I hope I don't hit anyone. I can't see anything. Ashe thought, it had already been quite dark but now it had started to sprinkle and was increasing in strength and number. Just as Ash's jacket had been soaked completely he smacked into someone, falling, and equally soaked his pants.

"Ash! How dare…." Gary began harshly but trailed off when he saw that more than rain trailed down Ash's face. "Ash?" he asked. This isn't the Ash I know. The 'never give up, must beat me' Ash. Something must be terribly wrong! Ash isn't with his little gang of dweebs… Geeze something really must be wrong! Maybe Misty said that she wasn't going to be their slut anymore. that last thought made Gary laugh and cringe inside at the same time. He had been meaning to be nicer to Ash and plus if that were true that would mean that there was no chance of Ash liking him.

"Gary? Is that you?" Ash asked quickly wiping tears off his cheeks. "What do you want? Leave me alone. I don't want to deal with you now. Okay?" Ash said harshly with a strained voice. He began softer, "You think I'm a wimp now don't you?" he then started to raise his voice. "I'll tell you something Gary! I can still beat you any day!" Ash's voice was being strained to the extremes to try not to crack and failed a few times. Gary was speechless.

He really does hate me! Oh my God! Gary scooted back a little bit and started to feel terrible. I… I have to go back to Pallet and give Gramps the poke'mon back. The only reason I went on this stupid adventure was to impress Ash. I even failed at that…. I just made him hate me more…….. Well maybe even if I can't solve some of my own problems I can solve some of his. That would make me feel a little bit better. Gary lounged at Ash. And Ash being Ash thought that Gary had finally had enough of his whiny little voice and just him in general and that Gary was trying to kill him… So he screamed.

"AAAAHHHhhhhh! What are….. You doing???" Ash trailed off as Gary hugged him. "What's going on?" Ash asked as Gary lifted him up to his feel. Gary continued to hug him for a bit.

"Ash..?" Gary asked in a slightly softer voice than normal and after some time had passed. Gary's eyes had begun to drowned themselves in tears of slight hate for himself. Gary squeezed harder, but it was a comfortable grip not and 'oh my god he's killing me!' Ash's arms were pinned to his sides or else he might have had a different reaction.

"Ummm….. Yeah?" Ash asked after another moment had passed. He was horribly confused. Gary hated him and he was hugging him? Ash's rears had definitely slowed by Gary's strange behavior.

"Are you okay? What happened?" Gary asked.

"Umm yeah… sure…" he answered hesitantly. "Well Tracey's a girl…. But why do you care anyways?! Your just going to tease me about it later! About how I'm a sick person because I'm traveling with two girls." Ash said in a kind of confused angry tone. Gary balked… that would have been something he would have done~

"I…. I do care! I have cared! I care about you! I wont tease you! I promise! I'm so sorry I put you through that! I'll never do it again!" Gary cried harder. How could he have been so cruel to the one he loved?

"Whaa??!!… What's wrong? Are you feeling okay, Gary?" Ash asked. Gary loosened his grip.

"………… No,… no I'm not okay……. I feel horrible. I'm going to go see Nurse Hotaru." He made up an excuse to escape. Ash proly didn't like him anyway. It would be best to just leave now. "Bye, Ash, see you later." Gary cried while running off.

"Uhhh….?" Ash was befuddled. Gary hated him! Gary hates me, I just don't get it. He hugged me!….. But….. It was nice……. What's with him caring… about me?! And he was crying…. I wonder if he really does like me? What if he like likes me?… Is that a good thing or a bad thing? (Oh just admit it Ash! Your gay and your in love with Gary!) "That's it! I'm gay and I'm in love with Gary!" Ash yelled at the sky. (Heh heh heh.) Ash walked into a Ramada with a bunch of really beautiful guys in it. (From my point of view not Ash's. Ash is too involved with Gary to care about anyone else.) Ash sat down crossed his arms and set his head down on them. The guys stopped talking and stared at Ash.

Ha! Finally I'm done! What will happen to Ash will the strange gang of puurty guys beat him up? Umm yeah……. Right I make cheesy preview thingies don't I?
