Jealous Love: Chapter 8

Chapter 8: Motherly love

"….Hoorayyyyy!!" Then the little bird jumped into the nest and chirped happily! It was going to be a good day! The sun was out and the other animals where singing and laughing and having a good time. When was the little bird going to fly again? The mother looked at her baby with concern. And are you still reading this? Hmm where is the story? Don't you want to hear about the bird? Oh you don't :P ^_^ just kidding….

Really now…. Its Chapter 7

"…The change….is permanent." Oak said half-smiling wondering whether or not it was a good or bad thing. Kasumi had let out a breath she was holding, not even knowing that she was holding it.

"Are you ok?" Ash asked concerned uncertain as well.

"Am I alright? This is the best thing ever!" Kasumi said half-crying and flinging herself onto him. Ash caught her and then smiled happily.

"Ok! If you are happy I am happy!" Ash then released her and then looked around out at his now happy group. He then turned back to Kasumi.

"Would you feel comfortable traveling again?" Ash asked. Kasumi sighed and then lightly punched him in the shoulder.

"Oh Ash! I'm not paralyzed or anything! I mean…I won't be able to fight for you anymore, but I can be a translator I guess." Kasumi replied.

"Well then shall we continue on our journey?" Ash asked his friends.

"Sure." Brock said.

"Count me in!" Misty smiled.

"Well ok! We can leave today after lunch!" Ash said full of energy.

"Oh honey make sure that you be careful! Don't forget to call me whenever you reach the place to where you are going!" Mrs. K said escorting her son out of the house, face full of worry.

"I wont Mom!" Ash responded heavily.

"Does everyone have everything! No one forgot anything? Did you get a backpack for Kasumi?" Mrs. K asked going through a check -list in her head.

"Yessss…." Ash said trying to walk down the steps his friends ahead of him.

"Uh…where are we heading to Ash?" Brock said examining the map.

"Uh do you think that we can go through Cerulean? Id like to stop by and check on my sisters." Misty sighed.

"Sure.."Ash said still trying to get away from his mother.

"Okay honey don't forget to call me when you get to Cerulean ok?" Mrs.K said looking at her 'little boy'.

"Alright mom." Ash said. Mrs.K then captured her son and then planted a kiss on his cheek.

"Aww mom!" Ash said struggling to get away from her. Mrs. K smiled and then said the one thing Ash had prayed she wouldn't tell him.

"And don't forget to change your 'you know what' every day!" Mrs.K sung as the group was already taking off. Ash sweat dropped and murmured a last goodbye.

So our group leaves the town of Pallet and head to the beautiful city of Cerulean but decide to have some laughs on the way…

__________________________________________

Ash and Brock walked in the group as the head leaving Kasumi and Misty in the back. Ash sort of sighed almost missing his pika-pal. Who probably would've been on his shoulder. Currently his little friend was behind him giggling every other second with Misty. Ash's annoyance level now rising with every laugh. It reached its peek and then suddenly he turned around and blurted,

"What's so funny?"

Misty and Kasumi exchanged glances and then broke out into another fit of laughter. Kasumi still laughing came up to his right and pulled on his cheek.

"You are sooo adorable! Little Ashy-Washy saying goodbye to his mommy!" Ash frowned at her. Misty then came up to his left.

"Aww don't be sad…It's ok to be a momma's boy." Misty said patting his head. Brock whipped out his map to cover his grin.

"I'm not a momma's boy!" Ash said looking at them and then went over to Brock.

"Right Brock?" Ash pilled the map down to release a hysterical Brock.

"Aww man…not you too!" Ash said rolling his eyes.*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

It was getting dark and the group decided that they would camp out and probably reach Cerulean by tomorrow. They made camp in a small open area in the woods.

"If I'm going to cook something for dinner…I'm kinda gonna need a fire…meaning that someone has to go and get some wood." Brock said getting pots and pans out from his bag.

"I'll go get some." Ash said shrugging and starting to walk off already. Kasumi then saw this as an opportunity and pushed Misty forward, giving her a wink.

"Uh…uh...wait up Ash…Ill come with you." Misty said dumbly.

"Okay." Ash said turning around and waiting for her. The two then left and Kasumi stood there smiling. Brock chuckled.

"What are you laughing about?" Kasumi asked wiping the grin off her face.

"You…you're really sneaky." Brock continued, while getting out his ingredients.
