Ash lied on the couch watching TV, bored stiff. Jessica hopped up onto the couch. She sat on his stomach. "Hey! You're sitting on me!" he said.
May looked at him. "Ash, leave her alone."
"She's sitting on me!" he said. Jessica saw the remote on the floor,
hopped down, and picked it up.
"Barney!" she yelled, pushing a button labeled 'Channel Jessica.' It was her favorite channel because it had Barney, Telatubbies, and all her favorite shows on it. The purple dinosaur was singing at the moment.
"I have got to remember to stop putting the remote down!" Ash sighed. He got up and went in the kitchen.
"Poor Ash can't watch what he wants because Jessica's watching Barney!" May sang.
"Shut up."
"No. Ash, we have to meet Cyrus, Anne, Sakura, and Li tonight, remember?" she said.
"Yes. We still have a few hours," Ash said. He walked out of the kitchen.
Ding dong! Ash walked to the door and opened it. It was Sakura and Li. "Hi, Ash," she said.
"Hi," he said. Li gave him a look.
"What's up?" Li asked.
"Nothin." Li sighed and walked into the house. Sakura smiled at Jessica.
"Aunt Sakura!" Jessica yelled. She ran at Sakura.
"May!" Ash yelled. May looked at him from upstairs.
"Coming!" she yelled. May came downstairs.
Delia Ketchum knocked on the door. Ash opened it again. She was going to watch Jessica for the night.
"Have a good time," Delia said.
"Ok," they said. Ash, May, Li, and Sakura left.
The music was pounding when they arrived. "Ash?" May asked.
"Huh?"
"I want you to go find Cyrus and Anne," she said.
"What did you say?" he asked. She yelled what she said. "Oh! Ok!"
Ash went in search for them. May, Sakura, and Li went in another direction to help look.
"Yo, Ash!" Cyrus yelled, running over. They got to each other.
"Where's Anne?" Ash asked.
"Right here!" she said. She was behind him. Ash took them to the rest of the group.
It was a few minutes later. Cyrus, Li, and Ash-who by chance was not having a very good time-, was sitting at the bar, talking about this and that.
"Come on!" Cyrus cried, "Just one!"
"No." Ash said stiffly, "I don't drink and you know it!"
"Pppllleeeaaassseee?" he begged.
"NO!" Ash yelled.
"Come on!" Cyrus said. He thought a moment. A smile appeared.
"No!" Ash said.
"Wimp," Cyrus muttered. Ash glared at him.
"WIMP?! I'LL SHOW YOU WHO'S A WIMP!!!" Ash yelled. Cyrus muttered to the woman behind the counter something. She nodded and walked away.
"Go ahead, Ash," Cyrus said, when she returned to them with the glass. Ash looked at Li, who shrugged. He drank as much of it as he could in one gulp.
Cyrus and Lee's jaws dropped. They couldn't believe it. "We can't believe you just did that!" they said.
"Oh well," Ash said. He took another gulp of it. Cyrus and Li shock their disbelief off and continued talking.
"A-ash, I don't think that is a good idea." Cyrus said, "It could give you alcohol poisoning. It is a little much for you.."
"What'cha' talkin' 'bout, Cyrus? It ain't gonna do that," Ash said. His speech was getting slurred.
"Look what you have gone and done, Cyrus!" Li hissed, "May is going to cream us!"
"No she won't! She'll just get Ash outta here before he hurts himself." Cyrus said.
"I'm going to make sure those three aren't getting in trouble," Sakura said. She walked over to them. Cyrus and Li stood up in front of Sakura. "What's the matter?"
"Nothing! Nothing." Cyrus said.
"Cyrus, you gotta stop worrying over nothin'!" Ash said. Sakura saw Ash.
"Oh dear!" she said. Sakura looked at Cyrus and Li. "What have one of you done?"
"nothing!" they said. Sakura glared at them. She went right next to Ash.
"Ash?" she asked.
"'Uh?" he asked.
"Let's go see May," she said sweetly.
"Who?" he asked. Sakura glared at Cyrus and Li again.
"Look what's happened now!" she said.
"May!" Sakura said.
"Oh.May." he said. Ash stood up. He was a little wobbly at first. Sakura lead him all the way through the place.
"MAY!" Sakura yelled.
"Over here!" May yelled. Sakura got him over to her.
"What did he do?!" she yelled.
"I didn't do nothin'!" Ash said. May sighed.
"May, we got to get him back to your house!" Sakura said.
"Yeah." May said, "Come on, Ashy, let's go home!"
"Who ya talkin' to?" Ash asked.
"You," May said.
"I don't wanna go!" he said.
"ok, we won't go.but you stay with me," May said.
"Ok." Sakura started her conversation with Anne again. Ash was a little more playful then usual.
"Ash! Not here!" May said.
"What are you trying to do Ash? Rape her?" Sakura said. Ash giggled.
Anne, May, and Sakura looked at each other.
"Um, was it just me, or did I just hear him giggle?" Anne asked.
"Not you, that's for sure," Sakura said. Cyrus had showed up a few minutes before. He was laughing, hard.
"Hahaha! I can't believe I just heard him giggling!" Cyrus roared.
"Shut up!" they said. Cyrus shut his mouth. Li ran up to them.
"What's going on?" he asked.
"Oh, Ash just attempted to r-" Cyrus said.
"Ahem, Ash just wanted to kiss me!" May snapped.
"No, he tried to-"
"Don't tell me what he was doing!" May snapped.
"May, I'm bbbbbbbbbooooooooorrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeddddddddd!" Ash whined, nuzzling her. May smiled.
Anne and Sakura both giggled, Cyrus smirked, and Li just stood there watching blankly. "Why are you bored?" she asked.
"There's nothin' to do here!" Ash whined.
"What do you wanna do, Ashy?" May asked.
"Go home," he said.
"Ok, if you want to," May said. Sakura and Li trailed behind. Cyrus and Anne were behind them.
"Ash, you have to be a idiot to listen to Cyrus," Anne said. They were in the car. Anne sat in the front with Cyrus. Li, Sakura, May, and Ash were in the back.
"Who?" Ash asked.
"You," she said. May glared at her.
"Ohh," Ash groaned.
"What's the matter?" May asked.
"I.!!!!!" He fainted.
"Oh, wonderful!!! Ash just passed out!!!!" Li grumbled, "Thanks Cyrus!"
"Don't blame me!" Cyrus said. Li grumbled again. May sighed.
They pulled up to the house. Cyrus carried Ash into the house without much difficulty. Delia looked up. She gasped.
"What happened to him?" she asked.
"Oh, Cyrus just went and got Ash drunk! He fainted in the car!" May said, "Get him upstairs!"
"Mommy?" Jessica asked. May thanked Delia and she left. Jessica ran to May.
"It's time for bed for you!" she said. Jessica ran upstairs. Cyrus, Anne, Sakura, and Li left. May climbed the stairs.
***The next day*** May made breakfast for Jessica. She left her to eat. It was around 9 in the morning. Frowning, she went upstairs to see if Ash had woken up yet.
To her disappointment, he was still asleep. Then something hit her. "*He is going to have a major hangover when he wakes up.*" she thought sadly.
May went back downstairs. Jessica was playing with her fork. She let the baby down, and watched Jessica run off to the living room.
"What matter Daddy?" May heard Jessica say after 3 hours. She looked
up. Jessica came trotting in, following her father eagerly.
"May," he groaned, "I have a headache."
"Ash, you look like you've died or something," May said, opening a cabinet, and taking a bottle of aspirin out. She took two pills out, and gave them to Ash.
He swallowed them. "And I feel the part." Ash muttered sourly, sitting down at the table, and putting his head down, "I wish I could sleep for a decade."
Jessica tugged on his jeans. Ash looked at her. "Daddy, you say you play wif me!" she squeaked.
Ash closed his eyes for a minute, then opened them again. "Daddy can't play right now. Daddy tired and hurt all over," he said slowly.
"Why do Daddy hurt all over?" Jessica asked. He looked at her with weary eyes.
May watched them. Usually, Ash would be energetic, quite happy to play with Jessica. Right now, he seemed less then thrilled at the thought. "Jessica, go in the living room and get your dollies out," May said.
"Ok, Mommy," Jessica said. She ran out. May sat down by Ash.
"Ash, is that aspirin helping at all?" she asked. He shook his head, no. "Then go back to bed, and try to go back to sleep."
Ash nodded and got up. He trudged back up the stairs. May went to play with Jessica. "Where Daddy go?" she asked.
"Daddy went to take a nap." May said, "Let's play with your dollies!"
"I want to play wif Daddy!" Jessica whined. May frowned.
"He doesn't feel good today, Jessica. Let Daddy rest, then he'll play!" she said.
"Ok!" Jessica said. They played with the dolls that were scattered about for half an hour. Jessica fell asleep on the couch at the usual time.
May went upstairs to check on Ash. She sat down on the edge of the bed. Ash opened his eyes and looked at her.
"Did I wake you up?" she asked. Ash shook his head.
"No," Ash sighed. He shook his head again. "I haven't been able to sleep."
"You feel ok?" May asked, running a hand through his black hair. He shut his eyes, sighing again.
"No," he said, "I've never felt this bad since.ever."
May looked at him. His eyes never looked as dull as they did then. He rolled over, his head on her lap.
"This has to be the worst day of my life," Ash said. He frowned to himself.
"Jessica is taking her 2-hour nap, so I'll stay up here if you want?" May asked. Ash nodded slowly, his head still throbbing with the headache.
May got off the edge of the bed and onto it fully. Ash stretched out, head still on her lap, eyes shut again. "I don't even know why I feel like this." he yawned.
"It's just a hangover Ash," May told him.
"That's wonderful," he muttered sarcastically. Ash frowned. He fell asleep after a LONG while.
Jessica stumbled over to the stairs after she woke up from her nap. She climbed up until she was in the up stairs hallway. "I wanna play!" she cried.
No one heard Jessica crying. She blinked, and walked to one of the doors. Jessica pushed the bottom of it, until the door slowly, but steadily, opened.
"I wanna play!" she repeated. She got ignored again. "Daddy, wake up!"
Jessica climbed halfway up onto the bed. She started screaming, kicking, and trying to get on the bed. "Hey, how'd you get up here?"
She stopped and looked. Ash sat up, shaking his head. He took hold of Jessica, around her middle, and picked her up. "You're suppose to be taking your nap!" he said.
"Mommy said you'd play wif me after your nap! I wanna play!" Jessica squeaked.
"Did she now?" Ash looked around. "Let's see, why don't you, go, um, take another nap?"
"But I wanna play!" she whined.
"But I'm still tired! We'll play after dinner, whenever that is."
"Ok, Daddy," Jessica said. She climbed down, and walked out. Ash shook his head again, and lied back down.
A couple minutes later, something started tugging on the sheets and blanket down on the floor. Ash sighed and looked over the edge. Jessica was back, but now equipped with a blanket and teddy bear. "You said take my nap again, so I wanna take my nap wif Daddy!" she said.
"Oh, fine!" he laughed, picking her up and putting her on the bed. Jessica hugged her teddy bear, wrapped up in her blanket. "Is that better?"
"Yes, Daddy," she said, going to sleep. Ash looked at her, before going to sleep himself.
