Day 2: First Kiss
Ash was lying in his bed. Pikachu was fast asleep beside him, but he couldn't shut his eyes. He had just returned from Unova, and tomorrow he would be boarding a plane to Kalos, with Alexa.
Just like all other times, he was not thinking about his journey. Instead, his mind always shifted to a certain red-head best friend of his. He didn't know why, but thinking about her gave him giddies and butterfrees would fly in his stomach. He had not seen her in almost 3 years, heck, not even tried to call her or message her. Now he realised his mistake and was thinking about it. He pulled out a familiar pink and yellow handkerchief from under his pillow, unwrapped it and there it was, 'The Misty Special' lure, his lucky charm.
Whenever he looked at it, the Mini Misty, it gave him strength and courage, and he felt like he could do anything in the world
Thinking about her, he made a decision, which he knew he had to do and would not regret it.
So here he was, two hours later, in front of the Cerulean Gym, at past midnight, to confront and confess hi feelings. He reluctantly rung the bell until he heard a faint voice 'Wait a second, will ya? I'm coming' which seemed rather annoyed and angry, which he kind of expected.
The door opened with a loud voice, "What is it!? Can't you see its past midnight!? What do yo-", and it died down as soon as the owner saw the young boy with with raven hair and chocolate brown eyes standing in front of her, after all these years. Her one hand found a spot in front of her mouth, now agape. She was too shocked and uttered only one syllable, "A-Ash?"
"Hi Misty." Ash said.
"What are you doing here?" Now Misty's voice was more stern and she seemed pretty angry. "After all these years, huh Ash? I thought I was your best friend. But you never came back, even after you promised."
To this he replied "Then maybe I don't wanna be your best friend anymore, Mist." Misty was too shocked to hear this and was on the verge of tears. She turned around and was about to run when a pair of arms hugged her from behind.
"Wait Mist. Hear me out" Ash said.
She didn't reply. So Ash continued, "You know after all these years, you are the only one who comes in my mind, no matter what I am doing. And that you give me strength. Even though you're not there, it feels like you are there, yelling at me, that I can do anything. Misty, I want to be more than your best friend. I-I think I l-love you Misty."
Misty didn't reply. But this time it was because she too shocked from his confession. When she felt him tense up, she turned around in his arms and wrapped her own around his neck, completing the embrace. She felt so happy, that the dense, idiot, stupid kid whom she loved was in love with her.
She finally said, "Oh Ash. I love you too dummy." Ash's jaw dropped a bit. "I love you so so much. And I missed you a lot. A. Lot."
Ash, regaining from the shock, smiled and said, "I missed you too."
After a moment, Ash said, "Misty, can I get a kiss?"
She looked at him a moment, and said, "Never thought I would hear this from you." She chuckled.
"Ha Ha. Very funny." He said sarcastically. "Anyways, can I?"
She decided to tease him a more. "Hmm. . . .Let me think. . . ." But it was too late. Ash kissed her straight, which she returned with same love.
They broke apart and grinned at each other.
"It was my first kiss, Ash. And I am glad it was with you. I couldn't think of anyone else." Misty said.
Ash smiled and looked her straight in eyes, "No Misty, it was 'our first kiss' and it was heavenly."
"Of course, Ash. It was our first kiss. One to be remembered and cherished forever." Misty said.
They stood in each other's embrace, not knowing what the future awaits for them. But, as long as they are together, there is nothing to be worried about, which is forever.
So there's that.
The next chapter will be updated soon.
Please, RR.
Until next time...
