~!^*Chapter Nine: Here With You*^!~
The greatest gift that there could be
Wrapped underneath my Christmas tree
Would be the same my whole life through
I'd spend the perfect Christmas
Here...with you
Ash was sitting on the couch in his living room, waiting for Misty to get downstairs. Misty was really cold, so Ash allowed her to borrow some of his clothes.
Ash heard footsteps coming down the stairs, and there was Misty, dressed in an old pair of Ash's long sleeve pajamas. Ash smiled at her as she came into the living room, and Misty smiled back. She then sat down next to Ash on the couch.
"Okay everyone! Time to open presents!" Mrs. Ketchum called excitedly as she came into the room.
Ash heard thumping noises upstairs and then a whoosh. There stood Brock, out of breath.
"Sorry," he said "Nature called!"
Everyone gave a warm laugh as Brock sat cross-legged on the floor. Mrs. Ketchum picked up her video camera and started filming.
"Well, you can start now!" Mrs. Ketchum said after a few moments of silence.
After that, Ash, Misty, and Brock abruptly started opening their presents. Ash got a daily planner from his mom. He flipped through the pages, and he found that on each day, his mom had wrote in 'change underwear'. He laughed and said, "Thanks Mom." Mrs. Ketchum smiled. He got a new Pokéball belt from Brock. It was a lot cooler looking then his old, worn out brown one. It was black, and matched the color of his hair. There were also silver streaks all around it. "Thanks, Brock! I needed a new one...really bad."
Misty got a video collection of her favorite water Pokémon show from Mrs. Ketchum. Misty's face lit up when she opened it, "Wow! Thanks Mrs. Ketchum, this is awesome!" She also got a new Pokéball belt from Brock. But hers was light blue and had little bubbles all around it. "Aw, this belt is so cute, thank you!" Misty said gratefully.
Brock got a new pair of sunglasses from Misty. He put them on and said "I'll be back," in a really bad attempt to sound like Arnold Schwartzenegger (don't penalize me for not knowing how to spell that! I'm not smart...). Brock got a book from Ash titled, 'How To Know What She's Thinking'. (LOL!)
There were many more presents opened, and then there were only two left. Rather small packages, and one was labeled 'Ash' and one was labeled 'Misty'. Ash and Misty looked at each other, then took the presents.
Misty opened hers first. The second she picked the pendant necklace, her eyes filled with tears. "I-i-it's beautiful, Ash-" Misty said tearfully. Ash gently took the necklace from her, went behind her and hooked it behind her neck. (a/n: You know what I mean, in all those movies, how the guy puts the necklace on the girl. The way he does it makes me feel, I don't know...I hope you all know what I mean...?) Misty turned around and hugged Ash. "Thank you, Ash, it's beautiful. I love it..." Misty whispered in his ear. Ash smiled.
Ash started to opened his. He tore off the wrapping paper, opened the box, and took away the tissue paper. He found the note on top and he read it, with a look of seriousness on his face. When he read the last line, I got this present for you because I care about you. Look inside it, and find what I've always wanted you to have., he took the small, golden Pokéball and opened it up. Inside it was a small, red heart, and on it, it read, 'My Heart'. Ash's eyes welled up with tears, and he shielded his face from Misty. Misty wrapped her arms around him in a loving hug. Ash took his hand away. He was now just centimeters away from Misty's face. They looked each other straight in the eye, and got closer. Their lips met and the kiss deepened.
Mrs. Ketchum turned off and camera and her and Brock quietly left the room. Hey, they needed their privacy.
THE END!!!!!!!!!
Whooo that was a doozy! I had a great time writing this, so I hope you had as much fun reading it! Check out my other fic, 'Hotel Paper: An AAMR', which isn't finished yet but you can start reading it. Oh, and I've decided to base my next fic on 'Just Missed the Train' by Kelly Clarkson, but that's only if I don't change my mind and find a better song to do. Good-bye, I'll remember you all in therapy! (lol Plankton said that when he switched lives with Mr. Krabs! That was a funny one!)
Mata nee!!
