Disclaimer: Look, All I own is a couple of comic books and candy. Pokemon belongs to people with money and that ain't me so don't bother me.

Sorry I didn't update earlier, I kinda went skiing and forgot about this. Oh well let's get started.

Chapter 3: Love through Letters

A couple of days later, another letter came for Tina. But as usual, Tina was bored so Misty was left to read it alone.

"Dear Tina, I'm so happy you wrote, now we will always be good friends. Yes, I do get chili chicken and stir-fry her but it doesn't taste the same. Guess what, I was chosen for the basketball team. One day, I might get to play in the NBA. I have a new friend. His name is Brock. Every Sunday, we go to the church. It is very beautiful and peaceful. But today, something strange happened. I began humming a tune. I'm sending you this tune. Write back! Love Ash and Pikachu"

Every week, Ash and Misty would look forward to receiving and writing e- mails to one another. Misty's secret identity was still undercover so Ash still thought that it was Tina writing to him. Years went by and slowly, without knowing themselves, they began to fall in love. The letters written, without even seeing each other connected their hearts.

12 years later.

"Sorry Brock, I gotta run. I've got something important to do. Cya!" and with that Ash ran home. When he got home he ran upstairs and put on his computer.

"You've got mail"

"Yes!" Ash exclaimed as he opened the file.

"Dear Ash, Your tune you gave me long time ago is like a habit to me just as writing to you is. Every time I go to church, I hum it."

Ash stared at the letter as he read it over again. Then he began to write a short letter in response.

"For me, you are also a habit. If I haven't told you everything that I wanted to tell, then I can't even go to sleep."

A couple days later, Ash received his letter. "If you can't go to sleep, then you should start reading. 'The Heart's Relationship' is a very beautiful story."

Nowadays, Ash and Misty's letters were becoming shorter and shorter but they held so much feeling in them. Even though not much was written, they understood each other really well. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~

Misty rushed upstairs and turned on the computer. She spotted Ash's letter and opened it.

"If you request, than how can I say no. Anyway, you know something? I only have a twelve-year-old photo of you and Misty. Why don't you send me a recent one."

Misty sighed. She loved getting letters from Ash and Pikachu. But e-mailing back was hard. This was because she couldn't let anything slip that would make him suspicious of who was actually writing back. Misty started to write back.

"Well.considering what you said, about you knowing me so well, I want to see if you would recognize me when you see me again." ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~

Ash had just read Tina's recent letter. He hadn't realized it before, but he was starting to fall for the person writing to him. He was always excited to hear from her. He always thought about her.

Ash began to write.

"Oh come on then, who needs a picture. I would recognize you the moment I lay eyes on you. Your image is always in my heart."

As Ash clicked "Send", he wondered when he would tell her the good news.

Somedays later, Ash received another letter.

"Liar"

Ash knew this was the best time to tell her. Since she did not believe that he would recognize her, he would prove it. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~ .~.~.~.~.~.~

"We'll see soon who is the liar. I have some good news. I'm coming home. I'm coming back to see you again. Gosh, I can't wait to see you. You must be so beautiful You are probably still the most prettiest, the most beautiful."

Misty finished reading his letter.

"That is not me Ash, that's someone else. someone else." She said quietly. She quickly got up and ran to the gym. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~

"Tina! He's coming back.? Misty exclaimed.

"Who?" Tina asked.

"Ash." Misty replied.

"Whose Ash?" Tina asked.

"Tina, you don't remember Ash! Our best friend who left twelve years ago. He has been e-mailing you so I emailed back under your name." Mist said the last part quietly.

"Misty, what have you done? Why did you write all the letters under my name?!"

"Ok, I was stupid but what was I supposed to do, leave him miserable? But now you have to help me. Just for two weeks and for those two weeks, you have to pretend that you wrote the letters. That's all, as simple as that." Misty said.

"No way, I can't do something that stupid." Tina exclaimed.

"Tina, you won't do this for me after all the things I've done for you. Ever since we were kids, I've done you're homework. And you can't even do this much for me." Misty pouted.

"Ok, ok, stop trying to make me feel guilty cause it's working. Just leave it to me. So.tell me, what does Ash look like?"

Misty remembered when Ash had sent her his graduation photo.

"He is very handsome. Six feet, chocolate brown eyes, messy black hair."she said.

"Ok, enough. Let him come. Let us see what he's all about, this Ash!"
