Discovered Love - Chapter 4 - "The Slowbro Café"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ash tapped lightly on the bathroom door. "Say Misty, er, its 6:00 and our reservations are in 10 minutes at the Slowbro Café….almost ready in there?"
"Yup, just about," she called, slowly turning the bronze knob of the door handle.
Ash straightened his collar. He was wearing a blue button-down collared shirt and a pair of sleek black slacks. His wild locks were somewhat tamed as he had attempted to brush his hair down. Nervously he looked toward the opening door, excited to see what Misty had on.
The door opened. Ash's jaw nearly fell towards the floor when he saw her. It was a relatively simple outfit, but fit her stunningly. She was wearing an orange tank top with a dark short skirt with flowing red, orange and yellow patterns on it. On her feet she wore sleek black sandals with a little bit of platform to them.
Misty noticed Ash staring at her and started blushing. She took one step out of the bathroom but out of nervousness, tripped on her shoes, flying forward.
She expected a cold hard ground to greet her fall, but instead felt two strong arms supporting her. She looked up, and beaming over stood Ash who had broken her fall.
Ash didn't know what to do. He had caught Misty, and now she was in his arms. It actually felt good. He didn't want to let go. Not ever.
Misty felt the same way, feeling secure and safe. But alas, the moment had to end, and Misty stood up and turned her eyes toward Ash.
Clearing her throat, she blushed, "Thanks Ash. Sometimes I can be a little clumsy in higher shoes," she looked away, then continued, "an-nnd, er, you look very nice by the way…"
Ash blushed, thinking: [wow…how do I respond to that…she looks so stunning in that outfit….wait what am I thinking? Ash Ketchum, failing for a girl, no, not in this life….but what do I say? I have to say something nice back…do I tell her she.s beautiful? But what if…?] His emotions got the better of him there, and braving back his courage, he took his arms, and turned her around to face him, and looking her in the eye, he said, "Misty, you look beautiful…"
Misty beamed, never expecting such a comment from Ash, and held out her arm. Pushing his insecurities aside, Ash excepted, linking arm and arm with her, and the two made there way out the doorway.
They didn't notice the two black eyes that had witnessed the whole scene, and nodded his approval as they went out the door, "Chuu…" (That'aboy, Ash) Pikachu whispered, resuming his nap beside the bed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"Excuse me waiter, we're ready to order now," Brock called.
"Of course sir, what would you and the lady desire for tonight?" the waiter greeted.
"We'd both like your salmon fillet, with the au gratin potatoes on the side, (**author note: this happens to be one of my all time favorite dishs! Bring on the seafood, baby!**) and a diet coke for me, and for Kiyone, an iced tea."
"Very well, zey will be ready momentarily sir," the waiter said, walking off towards the kitchen.
"That sounds lovely Brock, great choices! I absolutely love seafood, growing up in Jupiter afterall." Kiyone chirped.
Brock nodded, "Jupiter city is famous for its ports, right"?
"Uh huh. And especially for the seafood that comes with it," she smiled.
"Is Jupiter famous for anything else?" Brock asked.
"Well, another legend of the city is that, Jupiter is also known as the city of 'discovered love,' many write-ups say that even the most opposite acquaintances can find love if they come here," she giggled, "kinda a silly legend if you ask me," she Kiyone finished, reaching for Brock's hand, playfully squeezing it.
'Maybe not Kiyone, maybe not..' Brock thought, looking longingly in her eyes.
Brock and Kiyone's little moment was soon interrupted though, as a familiar pair set foot through the door of the Slowbro Café.
With Kiyone resting on his shoulder, Brock perked up and looked over to see who had just entered the café. His jaw nearly dropped when Ash and Misty entered, dressed up very nicely and "gasp" arm in arm. Brock decided to continue to investigate further. Ash and Misty were lead to a small booth and sat at opposite ends. A waiter came over to take their orders, and as he mentioned it, both Ash and Misty's hands flew for the menu in the middle of the table, both landing there at the same time. Blush escaped their faces as Ash surrendered the menu to Misty first, who quickly made her order.
Brock was in a state of awe. For one, very impressed with Ash being such a gentleman to Misty, and also the fact that not one bicker was exchanged between the two since they entered the restaurant. He grinned. Yes, they would make quite a cute couple.
Kiyone lifted her head off Brock's shoulder, and opened her mouth to say something, but Brock quickly silenced her, motioning to the shy couple across the restaurant. Kiyone grinned. This was going to be one interesting evening.
---------------------------------------------------------------
[What do I say to her…] Ash thought. Ever since they had sat down in their booth, he and Misty had both been practically silent. They both were equally nervous around each other. But this was just weird. In the past at restaurants like these, Ash and Misty would usually be fighting about something or another, or Misty would make some snide remark about Ash's eating habits. This was different though. Both Ash and Misty were acting like well-manned young adults rather than scrawy kids.
The silence was finally broken as the waiter returned with their food. Ash had ordered Jupiter City's famous sea bass, and Misty a Caesar salad. Both trainers occupied themselves in their food and nothing else. It was quite an unusually awkward evening for the two. But it wasn't like they were unnoticed.
Several tables down, Brock and Kiyone were well-aware of their friends' trouble, and had decided to initiate an icebreaker to come right after Ash and Misty's dinner.
---------------------------------------------------------------
"Here you are. Enjoy you two!" the waiter smiled, placing a giant sundae between Ash and Misty.
Both were quite surprised, since they hadn't even ordered dessert, and Ash inquired, "Um, sir, we never ordered this…"
"It is on the house, young man. A special surprise from someone anonymous. Please enjoy!" the waiter answered and walked off.
Not having said much all dinner, Ash decided he would try to begin a conversation.
"Wow, its huge! I've never seen a sundae so tasty and big!"
"Me too! Hope you're still hungry Ash, because this is when your appetite will actually come in handy," Misty playfully nudged Ash, taking a bite of vanilla icecream with chocolate sauce.
"Hey! There is nothing abnormal about my appetite!" Ash said back.
"Oh yeah, well, then look back at the food bills, and it will make since. That's why you've never been able to afford my bike," Misty grinned back, dabbing some chocolate sauce on Ash's nose. She was on a roll.
Ash was out of comebacks, so he returned Misty's gesture, and dabbed some chocolate sauce on her nose too. Misty grinned, "Now I look like a Pikachu with the chocolate on my nose, right?" Ash smiled, "Not quite yet, just needs some red cheeks," he slowly spooned some strawberry sauce on his finger and carefully dabbed in on her face. "There! Done," he said. "Not quite yet!," Misty giggled, dabbing strawberry sauce on his cheeks also. "There! Now you're a Pikachu too!" Ash grinned, "Actually, its still not quite done intil…," he took the two bananas in the sundae and held them on top of his head, "intil I have Pikachu ears too!" Misty erupted in laughter at the site of Ash with two bananas on his head and laughed so hard that she fell into Ash's chest, barely containing herself. Ash joined in too, absentmindly wrapping his arms around Misty, guffawing with laughter. The two of them didn't realize this, but it was one of the first times they were both laughing together, and not at each other.
They also didn't realize that a certain rock-type trainer and his girlfriend who had planned the whole thing, sat watching several tables away grinning from ear to ear. What a wonderful start for the evening!
