"Gary? What are you- How did you- Why are you here?" I asked as I thought of the right words to use. "Heh, what do ya know, Mist. When I was hanging out with you, they gave my room away to some one else! Can you believe that, what are the odds that, that would happen? So, I was wondering, since you all are the only ones I know in town, can I stay here for the next 2 weeks?"
I couldn't believe it, I KNEW he had to be lying. The Oaks are one of the wealthiest families in the world. He must be up to something… Ash snapped me out of my thoughts, "NO WAY, GARY! Go home if you want a place to stay so bad! Right, Misty?" Ash looked towards me.
I knew that Ash wanted me to tell Gary to 'Back off and go away', then I would feel guilty about putting Gary out on the streets after being so nice to me on my birthday. What should I do? "Well, um," I thought for a moment.
Finally I came up with a conclusion, 'Payback time Ash', "I guess you could stay, for a day or two," Brock, Max and May just glared at me, while Ash stood with his jaw wide open and his face growing redder, "WHAT! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? ARE YOU CRAZY MISTY! IT'S GARY! YOU CAN'T TRUST HIM!" Ash Blurted out as close to my face as possible.
"Relax Ashy-boy, I'm not going to do 'nothing wrong, I just want a place to crash for awhile, alright? So chill, also, leave Mist alone. She's just trying to pay me back for before, right Misty?" He said looking up at me as he made his way through the open door towards the group. "Um, yeah", I replied.
Ash held in his rage and bounded off towards the house. "So, where do I sleep?" Gary smiled widely as he leaned against the wall. I rolled my eyes as I lead us all back to the house. I knew Ash was upset, but he will get over it, won't he?
We entered into the living room in a single file line until every one spread out to go to their separate rooms throughout the house. The only one's left were me and Gary. "So, where's my room at?" I glanced up at him, "I'll show you. It's upstairs across from Ash's room, sorry." I said as I started leading him up the stairway. "It's fine, if he thinks about doin' something to me I'll put him in his place, heh. Hey Misty, thanks. You didn't have to let me stay, especially since your boyfriend doesn't want me to be here."
I rolled my eyes again and gritted my teeth, "yeah, whatever. Here ya go, your rooms on the left." I stated as solemnly as possible as I pointed down a darkened corridor. Hem, lights are all out, Ash must be asleep. Oh well,I'll straighten everything out with Ash tommorrow then,I guess,I thought asGary started to walk into the darkness. Then he stopped and turned around, "See ya, Mist. G'night." Then he smiled lightly and walked away to his room. "yeah, you too, I guess." I sighed.
Why is Gary being so nice to me all of a sudden? No point in worrying about it, he's still a jerk, or is he...Oh, snap out of itMisty. You keep spacing out. Stop thinkingabout Gary Oak and more abouthow to settle this feud between you and Ash. I thought as I slowly walked up the second flight of stairs to my room.
A good nights sleep will do you some good, I entered the babyblue colored room thatI called my own.I took off mytennis shoes and leaned back onthe queen sized bed, that was coveredwith white and blue blankets.I reached my hand out to grab a picture on the wooden night stand beside my bed. It was a picture of Ash, Brock, and me the first time we met. It seems like just yesterday. Oh, stop making yourself get side tracked. What about the fight? Misty, if you can't pull yourself together and think of somethingby tommorrow morning, that picture is the only time you are going to evenSEE Ash. Oh,Maybe you can think of something to make Ash forget about being mad at you.And with that thought in mind, I slowly drifted of to sleep...
