A/N: Hello again! I'm back with the third and final chapter! When we left Misty had just been stood up by her secret admirer, and now she's deeply upset because she could have told Ash how she fells about him. But he might not be the dirtbag he seems…

Chapter 3: Revelations

As Misty arrived back at the Pokemon centre she was paying no attention to her surroundings, so she couldn't see Ash's concern. When she got back to her room, it took her a full 10 minutes to notice a note on the floor by her door. When she did she slowly walked over, and picked it up to read it:

Dearest Misty,

I am forever sorry I did not show tonight. You must hate me, and frankly I don't blame you, I hate myself right now.

But, as I gazed upon your ravenous beauty, I could not work up the courage to come out of the shadows and say that I love you.

If, you are willing to give me 1 final chance, I swear, on the name of Pi- uh, I mean Pokemon, that I will show. If yes, then same time, same place tomorrow.

Forever yours,

Your secret admirer.

As she finished reading this she had no time to think about it before a knock on the door announced she had company.

"Hey, Mist, its me, can I come in?" said the voice of her best friend from the door.

"Yeah, okay" she replied, and he came in and sat next to her on the bed.

"So how come your back so early?" he asked.

"Because, um-". She was trying to think of a response that didn't seem to put him in the wrong. "Because one of his Pokemon got sick, so he had to bring it here to get healed.

Ash raised his eyebrow at her and said "I'm not as gullible as you think, you know Mist, and that was a pretty bad lie. Besides, I've been out in the lobby since you were out, and know one came to get their Pokemon healed.

"Oh all right" and she let him read the note.

"You weren't actually thinking of going were you?" he asked trying to keep his anger at the person who stood up his best friend out of his voice, unsuccessfully.

"And what if I am?" she asked equally as angry.

"But Mis-" he started, but was interrupted before he could finish.

"But nothing, now if you'll excuse me, I think I'm gonna turn in early tonight she said amongst Ash's many stuttered attempts to get her to listen to him, and she pushed him out the door and slammed it in his face.

"Pi?" came a voice from the floor. Pikachu had been eavesdropping on the conversation.

"Yep" Ash said with a grin, understanding the little yellow mouse as no-one else could. "Now lets go get something to eat, I'm starving!"

The next day there was silence at the breakfast table, except for Pikachu chugging away some ketchup, until Brock came skipping up to them with his joy of finally going on a date(pathetically for a 23 year old, his first).

"Hey guys, what's - up" he finished slowly as he noticed silence.

"Nothing" both Ash and Misty said bitterly.

"O-K then, hey Misty, how was your date last night?" he asked extra-politely, only to have his head nearly snapped off.

"It was fine, okay? Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to get ready for another one tonight!" and she stormed off.

"She's got another date tonight? - meaning were staying another night? - meaning I get to spend more time with Nurse Joy? - YAHOO!" and he ran off to tell her the "good" news.

Ash spent another day training his Pokemon(A/N: for what I'm not sure) and at 10 to 6 he went back in to see Brock and Misty off again. When it came to Misty, he put his pride aside, and apologized.

"-it's just that he doesn't seem worth it if he's put you through all this." he finished.

"Look Ash, I appreciate your concern, but really, it's fine". She was wearing the same outfit as yesterday, so Ash didn't need to gawp when he saw her. "I'll see you later, okay?"

"Yeah, okay, good luck!" he called after her. When he heard the door close he turned to Pikachu and said "Okay, buddy, you ready? Let's do this!" and he ran to his room.

At 6 o'clock exactly, he approached the bridge, with Pikachu on his shoulder. He was wearing a black tux(A/N: You figured it out yet?), similar to Brock's, and Pikachu was wearing a bow tie. As he walked to the end he took a deep breath and said "Let's do this Pikachu!", but at that moment, a robotic hand came out of the sky, and grabbed Pikachu! He turned around and looked up to see 2 of the people(and a Pokemon) that he least wanted to see in the world right now.

Team Rocket.

"Prepare for trouble!"

"Make it double!"(A/N: I wanted to change it a bit like they do on the show, but I couldn't think of some good lyrics, anyone got any?)

"To protect the world from devastation!"

"To unite all people's within our nation!"

"To denounce the evil's of truth and love!"

"To extend our reach to the stars above!"

"Jessie!"

"James!"

"Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light!"

"Surrender now or prepare to fight!"

"Meowth! That's right!"

"Wobba!"

"Urr, back in the ball!" said an annoyed, but at the same time happy Jessie.

"Uh, hey, Team Rocket, can we do this later, 'cause, I'm kinda busy right now" he asked the world's most pathetic villains.

"Of course not! Team Rocket doesn't revolve around you, you know!" said James angrily.

"Well you sure do act like it!" he yelled, and they fell down anime style before Ash said "Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"(A/N: One thing I never got, why is it "Thunderbolt" if thunder's just a noise, shouldn't it be lightning bolt?).

But the attack did nothing except shock Pikachu! It seems Team Rocket have bought yet another complex machine, with money they could have spent on food.

"Hahahahahahahahaha!" Team Rocket laughed maniacally. "P-lease twerp, do you honestly think we haven't learnt over the years!" James continued.

"Oh yeah, then I'll just use-" but he forgot that he left his other Pokemon at the Centre. "-Then I'll just use, uh, this!" and he picked up a stick, chucked it at the machine, and, incredibly, made it blow up! But rather than blasting them off, as it usually would have, they landed on the ground blackened.

Jessie was the first to come to her senses, and tossed her pokeball and cried "Go Dustox, Psybeam!" and the moth - like creature popped out and shot a multi-coloured beam out at the boy and tired mouse(whom Ash had caught after the explosion), as they tried to escape.

At the other end of the bridge, Misty, who was unaware that anything was happening was starting to think her mystery man had stood her up again, as it was already 20 past 6, until…

"Misty!". Ash came running towards her out of nowhere.

"Ash?" she said disbelieving. Then she noticed Team Rocket and started to run towards Ash, who gasped "Don't - talk - just - run!" and he grabbed her arm and pulled her along, Pikachu under her other arm.

When they saw a miserable Brock, Misty grabbed his arm and pulled him along too.

They reached some woods, and thought they were finally safe so they stopped and caught their breath.

"Hey Brock, - why aren't you - with Nurse - Joy?" Ash puffed

That got Brock crying like Torkoal. "She - she said she couldn't have a relationship be - because her job was more important - over dramatic sob noises".

"Oh, there, there Brock, -" Misty started, patting his shoulder, but couldn't finish, because just then an Ursaring came from around the corner and scared them out of their minds!

Team Rocket had finally reached the forest, and, realising they'd lost the twerps, hit Meowth.

"This all your fault Meowth!" said Jessie angrily.

"Yeah, you and your short - ". But James couldn't continue, because what he, Jessie, and Meowth saw next scared them more than Ash, Misty and Brock had been by the Ursaring.

It was the Ursaring, only stood next to it was - Officer Jenny! And behind them was, Ash, Misty, and Brock, who were all smirking, and stood next to a police van!

"Your under arrest for attempted robbery and attempted murder!" and without further ado she tossed them into the van. At this point Brock went into full - fledged - flirt - mode.

Misty went to try and pull him back, but Ash stopped her.

"Misty, I - I was your secret admirer!" he blurted out quickly and then looked down at his shoes. Misty of course had worked that out on the bridge but decided to humour him.

"You - you were!" she said with mock surprise in her voice.

"Uh-huh" he replied. "And I meant every word of what I said in those cards, Misty, I love you, I've loved you for years, and I-" but he was cut off.

"Ash, your babbling" she said with a giggle, and without another word she pulled Ash into his(and hers) first kiss.

Ash was shocked, but kissed back, and they only broke it when they heard a slap, followed by a police siren, and three people(Or two and a Pokemon) yelling "Team Rocket's carting off again!". When they turned around, they saw only Brock, with a red handprint on his face crying again. Ash and Misty started laughing until Ash said "Happy valentines day, Mist"(A/N: Okay, I know it's supposed to be the 15th, but just go with it, Okay?).

"Happy valentines day, Ash" and they shared another kiss.

A/N: Okay, so what do you think? Was I too obvious? Frankly I was surprised that none of you tried to guess who it was. Oh, and please review, I know your reading it, I checked my hits! Whether or not you liked it, I want to know! You have the power! Now then, that's the end of my first fic, hoped you liked it(review!) and if anyone's got any idea's on more I could write, they will be gratefully accepted. See Ya!
