Chapter 6: The Jig is Up! The next day Ash's mom had a plan to get him to 'fess up.

"Ash! Wake up, time for breakfast!"

Ash walked out of his room to tell his mom okay.

"Okay Mom, I'll be right down."

At the table....

"So Ash, how are you this morning?"

"Uh, fine ma." Ash noticed right away that his mom was up to something.

"You know Ash, I miss that girl that you were traveling with, what was her name?"

"Misty. Why do you ask?"

"Oh I don't know, I just was wondering if she could visit or something."

Then Ash panicked, "Uh well...maybe. When can she come over?"

"How about this afternoon?"

"Can we talk about this another time mom?"

"Okay Ash, whatever you say."

Then Misty woke up and she went to the bathroom.

"Ash, what is that noise in the bathroom?"

"Uh, I think Pikachu is messing around."

"Really, I didn't know that Pokémon can turn on a faucet."

"Well, yeah, Pikachu is really talented."

"Ash...,"called Misty as she walked downstairs seeing Ash's Mom.

"Ash Ketchum! What is that girl with practically no clothes on doing in my house!?"

"Uh...mom, it's that girl we were talking about earlier."

"I don't care who she is! What is she doing in my house?!"

"Well Mom. Were going together. She's my girlfriend."

Then Ash's Mom went from suspicious to soft.

"Oh Ash sweetie, you have a girlfriend? How sweet."

"Mom, is it okay that she spent the night here?"

"Well, yes and no."

"What do you mean mom?"

"Well, the two of you were practically naked. When I came home last night, I peeked in your room and saw the two of you, and both of you were sweaty. I thought you did something."

"What! No. We'd never do that Mom. I'm not like that."

"Well okay. If you have her over again to spend the night, could you two not show as much skin?"

"Okay Mom."

"Oh my gosh, I'm going to be late for work! Bye Ash. Have a good day, and stay out of trouble!"

"Okay Mom!"

Once Ash's mom left, the two of them were relieved.

"Phew, I thought my Mom was going to flip out on us."

"Me too. For a second, I thought she'd say something like I could never see you again!"

"Oh, Misty, that would be horrible. I could never live a day without you."

"Me neither." Then they hugged each other followed by a passionate kiss.

"Ash..."

"Yeah Misty?"

"How 'bout you come over to my house and sleep over there?"

"Sure, as long as you sisters aren't there."

"They won't be. They went to Vermilion City, won't be back for a week!"

"Cool."

"Will your Mom mind?"

"No I don't think so, I'll leave a note."

"Alright. Let's go."
