Chapter 4- Sleeping arangements
~*~
"So, Misty dear, how were things at the gym?" Mrs. Ketchum asked, taking a sip of her tea, as the group chatted around the Ketchum table.
"Oh, things were great!" Misty smiled, "It really helped my pokemon to battle so much, and I got to meet a lot of new people. I really missed traveling with the guys though."
"Of course you did!" Brock beamed turning away from the oven momentarily, "I would miss getting three square meals from master chef Brock too!"
Everyone laughed, "So Misty!" Ash beamed, "Did ya get any new pokemon besides Togetic?"
Gary rolled his eyes, "Oh brother, here he goes again."
"Actually, I have." Misty grinned.
"Awesome! What is it?!"
"Sorry Ash, can't show you now, maybe later."
"Aw man...."
"Hey Misty," Masato asked, "just wondering ... does that waterdrop on your shirt symbolize the Cerulean gym?"
Misty looked down at her tank top, it wasn't really different from the old one, just light blue with a waterdrop, "Yup!"
"So... you're from a water pokemon gym..." May said, "Meaning, you only train water pokemon..."
"Pretty much. Well, except for Togetic that is." She smiled at Togetic as it happily ate some of Brock's homemade Pokemon food with Pikachu.
"Yeah Misty, and Togetic is looking really great!" Tracy pulled out his sketch pad and began to draw it, "It really does look stronger then the last time I saw it!"
Professor Oak nodded in agreement, "It really is looking strong."
"Thanks! We've been doing a lot of training."
"LUNCH TIME!" Brock exclaimed, and in a matter of seconds, the table was covered in a feast of delicious edible goodies.
"Oh Brock, this looks wonderful! I can't even remember the last time I saw food this good!" Misty gushed.
"Well, then dig in!"
"Way ahead of ya!" Everyone glanced over at Ash who was pretty much inhaling food by the second.
"Ash! Chew your food!" Mrs. Ketchum scolded.
"I Fam!"
Everyone rolled their eyes.
"Some things never change," Misty smiled, "Ash is still a slob."
"HEY!"
"What? You are."
"I am not."
"Are too."
"Are not!"
"Are too!"
"ARE NOT!"
"ARE TOO!"
"Hey guys!" Tracy sweatdroped, "Take it easy, you guys don't wanna fight like this...."
"Yes we do!"
May turned to Brock, "Are they always like this?"
"Pretty much," Brock smiled wistfully at the two fighting, Tracy trying to stop them, Gary rolling his eyes, Masato watching with interest, and the adults staring at it all, beyond confused, "But in truth... they mean the world to each other."

"Jessie, Why are we digging another hole trap? The other one didn't work, why should this one?"
"Haven't you ever heard of the saying 'Try, try again' James? Besides, we're out of money to buy robots."
"Well, wes wouldn't be so bad in debt if yous twos hadn't spent the last dolloas on those tacky new bargain clothes yous got last week..."
"TACKY?!"
~*~
"Uhhh... Hey Ash, I need to ask you something."
"Yeah Brock?"
"Where are we all gonna sleep?"
"Uhhh... good question...." Ash's face faulted as he counted all the people who would be needing to sleep at his house, "Well, lets see... Tracy has the lab, and Gary has his house. That leaves me, of course, Misty, May, Masato, and you. That's five. HEY MOM!"
Mrs. Ketchum's voice floated from the kitchen, where she was doing dishes with Professor oak, "Yes sweetie?"
"Do we have enough room for everyone to sleep?"
She came into the living room with a thoughtful look on her face, "Well, we used to be able to fit you, Misty, and Brock in your room, but it's too small, not to mention messy, to fit all of you...."
"What about the guest room?" Brock asked, "The one I always slept in when Misty and Ash were fighting and was to scared to sleep in the same room with them."
Misty and Ash glared at him.
"Oh! You're right Brock!" Mrs. Ketchum smiled, "We can fit two of you in there, and three in Ash's room!"
"But, who's going to sleep where?" May asked. The group all looked, or in some cases glared, at each other...
Gary and Tracy sweatdroped nervously, as Pikachu and Togetic, sensing the trouble that was about to form, inched slowly from the room.
"Well, boys!" Professor Oak beamed, coming out from kitchen, whipping his hands with a dish towel, "What do you-"
"GRANDPA!" Gary grinned, running up to him and grabbing his hand, "What was that? Leave? GOOD IDEA! Come on Tracy!"
Tracy smiled nervously as Gary pushed the confused Professor Oak out the door, "Thanks for lunch Mrs. Ketchum and Brock! Good luck with the sleeping arrangements! BYE!"
Mrs. Ketchum blinked, "That's strange, I wonder what got into them... What do you kids think? Kids?"
"So.... Who's sleeping where?" May asked, glaring dangerously at Misty, who was glaring right back.
"I don't know May." Misty replied with clenched teeth, "What do you think?"
Brock tensed, this wasn't going to end well.
"I THINK I just might sleep in Ash's room," May stated, "since I have never been here before. You and Brock have both slept in it a lot of times."
"Really, because I was thinking that I was going to sleep in Ash's room, because I'm so used to sleeping in there and all." Misty countered.
"I don't know Misty... I think Masato should be able to sleep in there. He's never been here either."
"I don't feel comfortable sleeping in the guest room. I think he would."
"How would you know? You've never slept in there."
"Then why should I start?"
"I KNOW!" Ash beamed, popping into the conversation, "Misty, May and Masato can sleep in my room, and Brock and I will sleep in the guest room!"
Misty's eyes widened, "Oh no Ash, you don't have to do that. It's your room."
"Yeah Ash," May agreed, "it wouldn't be right to kick you out of your own room."
Ash shrugged, "I don't mind."
'But I do...' Misty thought angrily, "Ash, don't you want to spend more time with me? Haven't you missed me?"
"Of course I have, Misty, It's just-"
May cut in, "Ash, I've never even been to your house before! Misty's slept in your room tons of times!"
"I know that, I never sa-"
"Please Ash?"
"Ash, Please?"
"I uh, well, I...."
"Why don't you and Misty just sleep in the guest room, and let us guys have Ash's?" Masato asked.
If looks could kill, Masato would have been six feet under from the ones he got for that comment.
"Or not..."
"How about this?" Brock sighed, "Ash, May and Misty can have Ash's room, and Masato and I will take the guest room."
Misty and May gave each other a warning glance.
"I guess that could work." Misty shrugged.
"Yeah, I can live with that." May agreed.
{'Wonder what that was all about...} Ash thought to himself, {'Oh well, I'll think about it tomorrow, I still need to show May and Masato around the house.'} He turned to Masato and May, "Well, now that that's taken care of, you guys want a tour of the house?"
They nodded and followed Ash as he headed up the stairs, closely followed by Brock.
Misty began to go too, before Mrs. Ketchum put her hand on the girls shoulder, stopping her, "Misty?"
Misty turned and faced her, "Yes Mrs. Ketchum?"
Mrs. Ketchum gave the her an almost sad look, "Dear... are you sure you're ok with all of this?" seeing the girl wasn't following, she continued, "You know, with May and all."
"Why would May being here bother me?" Misty asked, faking confusion and forcing a smile.
Although she wasn't fully convinced, Mrs. Ketchum let it go, "No reason Misty, you go catch up with everyone else."
Misty nodded, "All right. And don't worry Mrs. K, I'm fine, really." With that she ran up the stairs to join the others.
"I hope you're right, Misty... I really hope so..."
