The next performance was one Ash would have nightmares about in the nights to come.

"Must they touch eachother....every....two...SECONDS?!" Ash hissed at Brock.

"Do I look like I'm controlling the dance moves? Calm down!" Brock replied and turned his head one last time in search of Nurse Joy or Officer Jenny.

'They don't look like dance moves to me.. They look more like their about to........' Pikachu was cut off by Ash clenching his mouth shut.

"Don't even say it. Just don't even say it."

Brock managed to control himself and not literally fall over laughing at how easily Ash was jealous.

"Does Misty realize they're CHILDREN HERE?!" Ash yelled.

Pikachu rolled his eyes.

'Get..over it.. Your just wishing it was you, eh?' Pikachu asked as if he like seeing Ash about to blow up over something so minor.

"You know, I still don't see why they took away the glass wall. It was practically my best friend, and then they go and pull it away." Ash sighed loudly with exasperation.

Misty could feel Ash's eyes practically burning her skin from all the anger radiating from him... Or was it jealousy?

The boy spun Misty around and followed her wherever she went around the stage, touching her every chance he could get.

And I can't help myself.. When you put your hands on me.. It's paradise, when you and I get close, get tight.. When all I wanna, go all, all night.. I wanna play that game with you baby. Listen to me.

It was obvious Misty was playing hard to get because when he would touch her, she'd walk away. Although it'd take her an awfully long time to walk away.

All I want is you, come over here baby.. All I want is you (oh oh), you know you make me go crazy

All I want is you (yeah yeah), now baby don't be shy. You better cross the line.. I'm gonna love you right.. 'Cause all I want is you

Misty stood in the middle of the stage with the boy behind her as the background dancers danced around them. She turned to look him in the eyes and he slowly ran his hands down her arms and hips as she sang in a very...spicy tone of voice..

Ash wanted to just crawl into a little corner, curled up in a little ball, and wait for death to come his way.

Don't you wanna be the one tonight.. We could do exactly what you like.. Don't you wanna be just

you and me? We could do what comes so naturally.. I got a thing for you.. Got my mind made up (yeah).. And I'm serious, never been more baby.. I'm sure that it's real (so sure).. And it's right here, uh come on.

The boy lowered his head towards Misty and was going to kiss her. He was slowly beginning to close the gap between their lips. It was part of the show to do that, but that's not what Misty thought.. Ash cringed in his seat, closing his eyes tight, and telling himself to not go up there and kill him.

Misty made it seem as if he had spun her around and away from him as she began making up her own complex moves to the song, just so she didn't have to kiss the boy. Racheal and the other backup dancers looked confused, but managed to follow Misty's moves.

The boy looked the most stunned then all of them, but followed Misty in the dance moves so he didn't look as stupid as he really was. Misty almost cringed when she saw the look the manager was giving her. He saw what had happened...And she was going to get it.

Oooh yeah yeah.. You give me what a girl feels, what a girl likes, what a girl needs, what a girl wants...

Misty closed her eyes tightly again and looked so worried she would make a mistake with the high notes.

All I..All I want is you..Ooh baby... All I want is you.. Oh you make me go crazy.. Now baby don't be shy, you better cross the line, I'm gonna love you right, cause all I want is you..

Misty and Ash both sighed with relief as the song ended. Brock was just staring straight at Ash the whole time, in pure astonishment at how easily Ash could become jealous. After this night, Brock wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the evil green eyed monster and Ash.

"...Is....Is it over? I think my eyes have been blinded." Ash said, slowly opening his eyes, to find everything was dark around the stage again.

Brock blinked.

"Unless they have a special part of the show which is done in the darkness and in a deadly silence, except for the moans that can slightly be heard, yeah, I guess it's over, Ash. Well at least that song is.."

"Thanks. I don't think I've ever felt more sick in my life."

'You..have...no..idea..' Pikachu mumbled, holding on to his stomach as if he would vomit any second..

"SEE! That's why we need Nurse Joy around here!" Brock said, guessing Pikachu's stomach hurt from seeing him holding his stomach tightly.

Ash raised his eyebrows at Brock.

"Honestly.." Ash muttered.

'So.. What can you tell about the story through the lyrics so far?' Pikachu asked.

"Well..Misty and stupid boy are going to get frisky tonight, obviously."

Pikachu sighed.

'Close enough.'

They waited in the dark for a good ten, boring minutes. Most of the crowd was just about to fall asleep when the lights shown on Misty, who was lying on a bed looking very interested in a book she was supposedly reading. What was with all the books?

On the other side of the stage, there was Racheal and the boy.

"Racheal...I never liked her..She was just a girl on the side, basically. I've always liked you. I don't see why you don't feel the same way about me." The boy said with hints of exhaustion in his voice.

"She...She's my best friend and she loves you.. I wouldn't do that to her. I don't know...." Racheal replied, sounding unsure of herself.

Ash watched the play completely interested in what was happening..

"But..Would this help..?" The boy asked, leaning down to kiss her. Racheal's mind told her to pull away, but her heart wanted nothing but to stay. And there they were. Kissing and Misty not noticing.

Racheal stopped and pulled away.

"No! I wont!" She yelled, backing away from him slowly like he was a criminal.

He looked at her shocked, and began to walk towards her.

"How...how could you? How could I?" Racheal asked before turning and running away. Misty barely contained a laugh when the crowd went "Awww..."

The lights began to dim on top of the boy and grew brighter against Misty as the phone next to her began to ring. Misty seemed tired as she picked up the phone.

"Hello?...Hey Rach..Listen, I cant talk..I'm expecting a call from someone........ What? N..No he didn't...Jason wouldn't do that to me..," Misty stuttered, "You..Your just a liar, Rach.. I always knew you were jealous. Besides, he would never do that to me..I know him...."

Misty stood up from the bed and walked around, tears beginning to form in her eyes.

"Maybe I don't know him well enough.. " She sighed, and seemed to have been a little taken off guard when music began to suddenly play.

In the play, Racheal was outraged that Misty didn't believe her and was beyond angry. She was going to tell her with music. [authors note: you may want He Loves Me, He Loves You Not by Dream playing. ^^]

Racheal came out from the darkness singing.

Give it your all girl.. Give it all you got.. You can take your chance, and take your best shot.

They narrowed their eyes at eachother as Misty sang her part.

Say what you want girl.. Do what you do.. He's never gonna, gonna make it with you.

'Ooh..I get it.. Their fighting through music.' Pikachu said, growing more interested by the second.

"Go Misty!" Ash yelled with a chuckle, although he still had some anger flowing through his veins because of Jason.

Racheal moved in closer to Misty, getting ready to hurt her as well as Misty.

You're pulling petals off a flower. Trying to get your way.. Keep pulling till it says what you want it to say.. Girl, you can pick a field full of daisies, but he'd still be my baby.

It's almost as if you could sense actual anger flowing between them. Misty was trying to stay angry, imagining Ash was the boy that she had stolen from her. She guessed that Racheal was just an incredible actress.

I know you can hardly wait till I'm away from him.. Instinctively I know what you're thinking

You'll be giving him an open invitation, but my baby won't be taken in, no.

They faced eachother and it seemed they would just attack eachother any second.

Racheal sang half of the pre-chorus.

You can pout your cherry lips.. Try to tempt him with a sweet kiss..

And Misty finished it up,

You can flirt your pretty eyes.. He ain't got his hands tied.

Just when you'd think they were going to attack eachother, they both suddenly turn and face the audience and began dancing and singing to the chorus together. One by one, back up dancers came out and began dancing with them.

No chains to unlock.. So free to do what he wants. He's into what he's got.. He loves me, he loves you not. No matter what you do.. He's never gonna be with you.. He's into what he's got.. He loves me, he loves you not.

Ash watched Misty carefully, his eyes following her every move. She felt him watching her. And It was incredibly uncomfortable, especially now.

'Ash Ketchum..If you keep watching me like a hawk I am going to screw up very badly here.' Misty thought before she began singing her part in the song.

You're the kind of girl that's always up for do or dare.. Only want him just because he's there Always looking for a new ride.. The grass is greener on the other side.

Racheal gave Misty a rough push before her own solo began. Misty stopped dancing and gave Racheal an evil look, while putting her hands on her hips. She ignored Misty as best as she could and sang.

You're the kind of girl who's not use to hearing "no".. All your lovers try to take you where you wanna go.. Doesn't matter how hard you try. Never gonna get with my guy.

Misty gave Racheal a rough push with both of her hands. She took about six steps backwards. As the chorus began and they both sang, at the same time they slowly walked closer to eachother with that fake anger in their eyes.

No chains to unlock.. So free to do what he wants. He's into what he's got.. He loves me, he loves you not. No matter what you do.. He's never gonna be with you.. He's into what he's got.. He loves me, he loves you not.

Out of nowhere, Jason appeared with a stupid grin on his face. He seemed to be enjoying seeing two girls fight over him as Racheal began to sing again, walking towards Jason, and completely forgetting about Misty.

Doesn't matter what you do.. He's never gonna be with you.

Misty followed Racheal, also walking towards Jason.

"Kill her, Misty.. And while you at it, Kill him too.. " Ash said with an evil tone to his voice, talking to no one in particular. Pikachu looked at him strangely, but went back to watching the musical shortly after while mumbling, 'He gives a new meaning to jealousy.'

Give it all girl, Give it all you got.. Take a chance, and take your best shot.

Racheal got a hold on Jason's hand as Misty grabbed the other hand. They both sang the rest of the song together, both pulling on Jason, wanting him for their own.

Say what you want girl.. Do what you do. He's never gonna make it with you.

The chorus finally came up, and Misty let go of Jason along with Racheal, which meant they both gave up. All three of them began dancing to the chorus, but only Misty and Racheal sang, of course.

'Well..At least he isn't singing.' Pikachu said with a quiet giggle.

No chains to unlock.. So free to do what he wants. He's into what he's got.. He loves me, he loves you not. No matter what you do.. He's never gonna be with you.. He's into what he's got.. He loves me, he loves you not.

The song ended with a loud bang and they all held hands, bowing down to the audience. People clapped hysterically.

"Well. It wasn't as bad as the one before it. That other performance gives me shivers." Ash shook his head, as if he was shaking the memory out.

Brock raised an eyebrow at him.

"Unbelievable." Brock shook his head and brought his attention back to the musical.



***



Misty was waiting for the manager to come screaming through that backstage door, but there was no interruption. 'Thank God he's a lazy bum.' Misty thought to herself.

"Aydee, can you hand me that towel?" Misty asked while pouring herself another cup of water. If she kept drinking water at this rate, she'd have to go to the bathroom nonstop.

"Sure....." Aydee said with an evil grin on her face.

"Thanks so much.. I think I'm really beginning to get the hang of th- -"

Misty stopped speaking when a towel that was rolled into a ball was hurled at her. Aydee had always disliked Misty when she suddenly became the star of the show. Aydee was supposed to be the star, but when the manager saw Misty, he knew she'd fit the part much better then Aydee.

"Th..Thanks...Ahem.. " She cleared her throat and cleaned the sweat off of her face with the towel. Aydee walked away from Misty angrily.

Misty thought it wouldn't be so bad to hurl a couple of basketballs at Aydee. She was so tired of being treated like dirt. She didn't ask to be the star of some musical, so why was she getting towel balls thrown at her?

Misty sighed and shook her head as she changed into her costume, silently thanking the manager Aydee wouldn't be one of the back-up dancers anymore. After this concert Misty would be home free.. Back on the road with Ash, and free of Aydee.

She smiled to herself at the thought. Truth be known, she could not wait to be walking beside Ash again. She missed being beside him the second she went to go get ready.

'Just another half hour to go...Thirty more minutes..You can do it, Mist. Yup, you sure can. Definately..No doubt.. Right.' She cleared her throat again, reaching for her cup of water.

'But thirty minutes is so...long...' She almost groaned.



***

"Okay.. So far, Girl falls in love with boy..Boy finally loves girl back..But boy is an evil spawn of Satan.. Therefore, both girls give up on boy.. And are best friends again?" Ash said, slightly unsure of himself.

Pikachu nodded. 'I think so. I'm not sure he's a spawn of satan, but it seems to all fit.'

Pikachu seemed to become started when the music suddenly began to play, and someone was singing, who sounded like somewhat Misty, but you couldn't see anyone. Before Ash started to become worried, the lights slowly went on and he could see Misty and three other shadows.

Yeah I was right there.. like the "littlewife".. I was everything that you need, always in line.

I was living you, loving you, filling your desires.. But that was then-this is now, look me in the eyes.

The three other shadows revealed Racheal and two other dancers. They walked towards the center of the stage as they sang the pre-chorus.

Oh oh oh oh - if love could choose sides.. Oh oh oh oh - it's taken mine (so)

There was a loud boom and fire emerged from both sides of the stage as they sang the chorus.

Get over yourself..goodbye.. It must be hard to be you, yeah.. Living in your life.. I was always the one to cry.. Now everything, everything, everything is all right.. Get over yourself, know why.. Cause without you see i do anything i like.. Sometimes i stay out all night.. And everything, everything, everything is all right.

Suddenly Jason appeared out of nowhere, trying to touch Misty as she sang. First he made a grab for Misty, but she roughly pushed him away.

"Go get him Misty..Go get him! Make him pay!" Ash evilly chanted in his seat.

Pikachu merely rolled his eyes, as well as Brock.

This just can't be it, I kept telling myself.. And every magazine said was me was on the shelf..

I was given out, giving in, giving way my dreams.. While you put it in, put me down, now i found my self esteem..

Jason soon walked up to Racheal and gave her a meaningful look, but she also simply pushed him away from her. Jason gave Misty a mean glare before disappearing into the darkness.

Oh oh oh oh you won't get me back.. Oh oh oh oh think i overact? (well)

Misty danced harder and with more passion then she had ever in her life. She was doing her absolute best..And the dancers were still attempting to keep up with her.

Get over yourself..goodbye.. It must be hard to be you, yeah.. Living in your life.. I was always the one to cry.. Now everything, everything, everything is all right.. Get over yourself, know why.. Cause without you see i do anything i like.. Sometimes i stay out all night.. And everything, everything, everything is all right.

She was almost scaring Ash at how forcefully she was dancing. She made it seem as if the way her body was moving was creating the music.. She loved that feeling.

So now you wanna talk.. Say let's do it just once more for luck.. Like old times make up

Better yet just forget better get over yourself.. So stay in touch.. When you learn a few things about love.. Until then wake up.. Better yet better get better get over yourself..

All four of them sang the chorus one last time and stopped to pose. The loud boom went off again and the fire made itself known. All four of them were breathing heavily, but Misty was breathing the heaviest of all of them.

Misty let a couple of seconds pass before she spoke to the audience. She could barely breathe. The audience watched the sweat on her face, neck, arms, and her slightly showing stomach from the huge television screen as she opened her mouth to attempt to speak.

"I'd like to thank all of you..For being such a wonderful audience..And for clapping even if you thought I was horrible.." Misty said with a laugh.

She continued before the manager had the time to give her another evil glare, "Anyway, I will now begin to choose a boy from the audience to be my new boyfriend in this musical.. Then I will sing a song dedicated to him, and if he accepts my love, then he will have to step forward and dance with me. Sounds terrifying, eh?" Most of the crowd laughed.

Ash was far too nervous to laugh. Brock and Pikachu seemed to be content with everything, but Ash was passed the 'loosing it' stage. He looked like he was already in the 'I need a padded room' stage.

Misty looked through the audience, seeming as if she didn't know who to pick, but he was staring at her all this time.

Brock was paying close attention to Racheal as she neared Misty and whispered something in her ear. From the way Misty's eyes sparkled, he could tell it was about Ash. Misty nodded with a grin on her face.

Most of the males in the crowd stood in a deadly silence when Misty began speaking again, "With the help of my friends..I made a decision.." She allowed a giggle to escape her lips when she pointed her finger at the lucky young man.

"I choose you."
