Chapter 4: Some Female Bonding...

"WHAT?!" Misty and May said in unison.

"Yea, if I really have to go to some freaky dance, then I want to go with my best friend!" Ash explained.

Misty was speechless. He really wanted to go with her? * No Misty, * she thought to herself. *He just wants to go as friends...well, at least its not May *

"Wow Ash! I'd love to go with you!" Misty said finally, a little louder than she intended.

May crossed her arms and glared at Misty. "Hmph."

~*~

"Hey Max! We're home!!" Brock called once he and the others entered the gym/home.

"Finally you're home, Brock! The pokemon were getting hungry for lunch!" Max told him.

So Max and Brock went into the kitchen to make everyone's lunch. Ash went into the living room, plopped on the couch and flipped on the tv. May was about to follow him but Misty stopped her.

"Hey May, who are you going to the dance with?" she asked.

"Oh...umm... I-I-"May sputtered. She didn't really know who she was going to go with, and it certainly wasn't going to be Brock. No offense to Brock though, he was nice but...him and May?* No*, she thought.

"Wellll, while you figure that out, what do you say we do some 'female bonding'? I'll take you around town, and we could even get a beautiful dress for the dance! And also get to know each other better! We could go for lunch! It'll be fun! We could talk and-"Misty rambled.

*Does she really want to be my friend? Or is she just feeling sorry for
me that Ash wants to go with her instead of me? *

"Female bonding? Well, um...I guess so..." May said hesitantly.

"Great! HEY GUYS, ME AND MAY ARE GOING OUT! BE BACK LATER!!" Misty called
out to the boys. But they didn't get a chance to answer because Misty had
already dragged May out the door.

~*~

"Ooo! How about this one, May?" Misty pointed to a long, red, sparkly
dress.

"Well, is it my size?"

"Of course it's your size! It has your name on it! You should definitely
buy it!"

So May ended up buying the dress and Misty had gotten a nice black
strapless dress with pink and blue stripes down the side.

Misty and May left the store to go eat lunch. They chose a restaurant and
sat at a table outside. While they ate their desserts May asked, "Do you
like Ash, Misty?" Even though, she already knew the answer, she wanted to
know how Misty would respond to the question.

Misty turned redder than the cherry on top of her sundae. "N-no, of
course not. He's just my best friend, that's all."

"No way. There's no way a guy and a girl could just be 'best friends',
there's just no way," May told her.

"Of course there is! You- hey...why do you ask? Do * you* like Ash?"

"No! Don't turn the question on me!"

"But you do don't you?"

"I'll only admit if you do!"

"Ok. On three..."

"One..."

"Two..."

"YES!!" they both shouted at once. Some by passers looked at them as if
they were psycho.

"I knew it!" Misty said triumphantly.

"Hey! You said it too!"

"But you have to swear not to tell him! Please!" Misty pleaded.

"You too!"

"Fine."

"Fine."

Then Misty said, "Wanna know something freaky about Ash?"

"Tell me," May said curiously.

"*giggle * Whenever Ash is drinking Sprite – no other drink – and you say
'POO!' really loud, it'll come out of his nose!" Misty started laughing.

"Oh, that's the way to impress a girl!" May started laughing to.

When they finally settled down, they both finished their sundaes and got
up with their shopping bags to go home. As they were walking, they both
heard someone behind them say, "Misty? Is that you?"

Misty and May turned around to see a boy who looked like Ash, but had
brown hair. He also had a pikachu with him.

"Ritchie (sp?)? Yea it's me! You sure look older!"

Ritchie put a hand behind his head. "Thanks! I guess. So do you I almost
didn't recognize you!"

May looked at Ritchie and noticed that he was actually as cute as Ash.

"Oh, this is May. May, this is Ritchie- a friend of me, Ash, and Brock!"
May shook Ritchie's warm hand. She blushed a little. They all talked for
about 20 minutes, then Misty brought up the subject about the dance.

"Are you going with anyone, Ritchie?" Misty asked.

"Well, um, not really. I-"

"Good! Since me and Ash are going together, you should go with May-!"

"Gee Misty! Look at the time! We'd better go! Nice meeting you Ritchie!"
May grabbed Misty's arm and dragged her away.

"Hey! What was that about?!" Misty asked once Ritchie was out of earshot.

"You don't have to choose *my * date, Misty!" May scowled.

"I was just trying to get you a date so you won't be a wallflower at the
dance!" Misty shouted angrily.

"I don't *need * your help! I can go alone can't I?!"

"Well, *I'd * rather go with someone other than myself!"

"Well, I'm not you!"

"Fine!"

"FINE!"

Misty ran the rest of the way to the gym leaving May in the dust.

*Who does she think she is? She needs to mind her own business! ....Gee,
some 'female bonding' * May thought as she slowly made her way towards
the gym/house.
