Leaving your heart behind

Chapter Eight: "Just when things couldn't get worse…"

Disclaimer: God, this again… No it's obvious I don't own Pokémon…

Well, I had to open my big mouth… I got much less reviews this time… -_- But anyway, those who review deserve their thank you:

Shadow Kat: Thank you so much for reviewing (God, I'm always saying this… ^_^) ! Oh, and sorry for the delay… I'll try not to take so much time to update ok? ^_~

Alexis: Thank you for reviewing my two chapters… I know Ash didn't show up in the last chapter, but he's in this one! Don't expect much romance between him and Misty for now, just in later chapters… Everyone has "voted" for an aaml so far, so I think you don't have to worry about the pairing ok? ^-^ 

And now, on with the story!

The morning after the unforgettable date, Misty decided that she wasn't going to get out of her room that soon: she thought of sulking in her bed for a few hours would be much better… So, she scribbled in a small piece of paper a "sweet and caring note" that warned her "beloved" sisters not to bother her if they didn't want to face her "unstable" mood…

And that's how that marvellous morning started…

Anyway, Lily got up lazily, yawning loudly and stretching her arms, already preparing her not too subtle or discreet questions, when she noticed the note on Misty's door…

"So I guess the date didn't go that well…" she said, grinning evilly.

Of course that note didn't persuade her: we're talking about one of Misty's sisters, it only made her even more curious… And that's why the foolish girl attempted to get Misty to spit it out, only causing her scream hysterically…

"Hey Misty! So, tell me how was your date…" Lily said right after she opened the door slightly.

"LEAVE NOW!!!!!! DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO READ, YOU STUPID, LAZY…" her voice was cut off when Lily closed the door abruptly.

"Bitch…" the usually cool, pink haired girl mumbled under her breath.

She got down the stairs and sure enough, breakfast wasn't ready when she arrived at the kitchen…

"Daisy, Violet, come here and make some breakfast!" she demanded.

And of course that this was equally stupid… All she received was some more lovely words (meaning: insults) by her other moody sisters.

"Crap! Lazy bastards…" she cursed angrily, while she tried to find the cookie jar (this being the only thing she could actually cook… because it wasn't "cookable", get it? ^_^).

And the only thing that could get her day even better… Yes, the damn phone had to rang…

"I WON'T ANWSER IT!" Lily yelled furious, crossing her arms.

"LIKE WE CARE!" the other three yelled in response.

"Please die…" Lily moaned while she eyed the phone dangerously.

Well… It didn't. It just rang and rang and rang getting more and more annoying…

"Stop ringing…" she said in a menacingly low tone.

The phone just kept ringing…

"WOULD YOU JUST GET UP YOUR LAZY BUTT AND STOP THAT STUPID PHONE???" Misty screamed fuming, from her room.

Lily got up livid, almost tearing apart the phone when she answered it…

"Hello?" a relieved male voice said on the phone.

"How can you be soooooo annoying and stubborn??? Didn't you even think that no one wanted to answer the damn phone??? You selfish bastard!" Lily burst outraged.

"So this is definitely Cerulean City Gym… Is this Misty?"

"No it isn't and I'm not going to call her!" Lily replied cruelly.

"Please it's a bit urgent…" the voice begged.

"She's not in the mood and I'M not in the mood for her mood… GET IT???" Lily said harshly.

"But I need to talk with her… Would you pleeeeeease do me the favour of calling her?"

"No way…" she replied.

"Pweeeeease???" the voice begged again.

"I'm gonna hung up…" Lily warned.

"Well then… Who are you anyway?"

"Lily…" she replied impatiently.

"Well Lily, I'll have to call and keep calling till Misty talks with me…"

"Are you Gary? Because if you are, I must warn you that Misty is furious with you… To say at least…" Lily said.

"But I'm not Gary, I'm Ash Ketchum…" Ash informed and added surprised "But why is she furious with Gary?"

"Like hell I'm telling you…" Lily said simply.

Ash sighed frustrated. This was going to be hard… Misty's sister wasn't helping and his patience was running out… And what was that about Gary??

"Can you at least take a message?" he asked suddenly.

"Do I look like your servant?" Lily asked indignantly.

"I'll call again…" Ash menaced.

"Fine!" she huffed "What do you want???"

****************************************************************************************************************************************

Four hours later…

Misty had finally decided that sulking in her room was boring and she was starving… So she went down the stairs and tried to find the cookie jar (well, the incompetence in cooking was common to all the members of the family obviously…)…

"Where is my cookie jar???" she moaned.

Searching the whole kitchen and finding nothing, she grabbed an apple and went to her room enraged.

"Lily, did you steal my cookies?!" Misty asked annoyed when she passed Lily's door.

"DI-SA-PPEAR!!!" Lily yelled in response.

"Fine! But you'll pay for it!" Misty replied angrily but quickly asked "Who was on the phone? Someone for me?"

"So who was the stupid, lazy girl…?" Lily thought wickedly and answered simply "Oh, just a boy with a wrong number…", adding a fake smile.

"Oh… Humm… I was just curious… So, I'll go to my room now… Right…" she mumbled nervously.

"God, I was too hasty… Now she'll think that I was expecting Gary to call… Gary??? Why him? I need to eat, I'm definitely not thinking straight…" Misty said to herself and left to her room not even suspecting the surprise that she was going to have…

****************************************************************************************************************************************

"Hey, someone's on the door…" Daisy said simply and turned her attention to a magazine.

"Go get it Misty, I'm working on my nails…" Violet asked.

Misty left the living room cursing and went to the door.

"I'm working on my nails, go get it Misty… I'm too dumb to know how to open a door…" Misty said sarcastically.

Lily got up quickly from the couch and ran to her room.

"Lily, what's your problem??" Daisy asked curiously, but not moving her eyes from the magazine.

"If Misty asks, I left to visit a friend and I don't know when I'm coming back!" Lily replied and got to her room.

"What's her problem?" Violet asked while she looked at the door, waving her hands for the nail polish to dry.

"ASH KETCHUM???? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE???" Misty scream was heard in the entire gym.

"What now??" Daisy said annoyed.

****************************************************************************************************************************************

At the Gym door…

"ASK KETCHUM???? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE???" Misty yelled shocked.

"Herm… Didn't Lily tell you? I called to ask if you could help me with a St Valentine's gift for May… And nice to see you too…" he replied with a weak smile.

"LILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Misty screamed infuriated.

"Oh, so that's why Lily went to her room…" Daisy said, while she and Violet peered from the top of the stairs.

"WHERE'S LILY???" Misty yelled livid.

"Hairdresser!" Violet answered.

"Restaurant!" Daisy said quickly.

"I said I was in a friend's house! You really are useless!" Lily yelled from behind them "Oops…" she mumbled when she saw Misty's dangerous glare.

Ash stared dumbfounded but with a smile on his lips.

"I missed you Misty…"

That's it!

Please review!

Sorry for taking soooo long!

Oh, and stay tuned for the next chapter, I think you'll like it better than this one!
