James P.O.V
We got to the Pokemon Center and Nurse Joy was now looking over me and Meowth. Meowth wouldn't leave Pikachu's side after awhile and curled close to him, terrified due to almost being disected. Joy was quite as she stitched up the worse injuries. "Heard you wanted to own a restarant and make ramen before. My sisters and cousins have had your ramen when you used to cook. You should go back to it." she suggested. He looked at his feet miserably. "Meowth, we all have our talents. Ours isn't stealing." I explained.
Ash chuckled as he gently held my hand and Joy finished up and started on me. "You're good with that Meowth." she said.
"I'm kind of his trainer. Accidently caught him during my first years as a Team Rocket member. He's only been attached to me since out of everyone else in the whole work team." I said. Joy hummed as she continued and sighed. "You'll have to stay overnight. He did a number to you." she said. "Need anything?" I nodded. "The movie RENT and the books from my bag." I said. I was actually gay but a lot of Pokemon trainers and Team Rocket members would never ever accept that so I kept it a secret and told no one. I loved whearing the female disguises
when Jessie had us dress up and had found out Jessie was bisexual by accident. She's now dateing Misty though.
"Didn't know you liked musicals." Ash said. "You're talking to a man who disguises as a girl for fun and makes Jessie whear the guy disguise when chaseing you guys. Yes. I love musicals." I answered. "Can I watch it with you. RENT is my favorite." he said(those of you who have never seen RENT it's one of like the main musicals like Grease but it's a more modern age one). I ended up watching RENT with Ash and after awhile ended up curled up in his arms. Joy returned to rebandage my injuries and had to tell Ash to go. "He needs to sleep for the night." she said.
-The Next Day-
Ash P.O.V
I woke up early and found James already awake and waiting to get out of the med bay. Joy said nothing while checking him and sighed. "You can go. Here's some pain killers for you. Meowth's meds are in a bag on the counter." she said. "Thank you!" he cried out and left. I lead him to the dineing hall to have breakfast with everyone and the 2 of us sat down. Meowth was eating the breakfast Brock set for him. Meowth food was different due to almost being disected and his injuries. I frowned at the bandages on his cheast. I hated it when pokemon were mistreated and had suspected Team Rocket were not the nicest to theirs at times.
Not Jessie and James but the REAL workers of Team Rocket. Brock felt around Meowth's stomach for broken bones to check if he needed to take care of anything. "Some bandageing later." he said thoughtfully.
Meowth was quite. I sighed knowing he was worried about humans. Dawn gently scratched behind his ears where most cat pokemon liked and he leaned against her feeling safe. "You're good." I said. "You just have to show you mean no harm." she said. I held my hand out to Meowth so he could show I meant no danger and he nuzzled it and then laid against Pikachu. I smiled knowing Pikachu liked Meowth.
"Not hungry James?" Brock asked. "I'm fine." he answered and got up and left. I took James' plate. "I'll make sure that he eats." I said.
