Disclaimer: don't own Pokemon...sadly.

Note: lol I LOVE seeing reviews pop up for my story. I want to make one thing clear though that this story probably won't be updated as often since spring break is ending for me. But I'll make time for beloved pokemon XD. Ok well the story's heating up and as one reviewer said...

"I want to see how May will react." Well let's just find out shall we!? This chapter was supposed to be about that very subject. Ok well on with ch. 3!

Thought

Emphasis

"Speaking"

(Author's notes...me!)

A Forgotten Face

Ch. 3 Winner Gets All!

"Where are Ash and Misty?" May was getting really, really impatient and worried...about Ash.

WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS!? Oh! Look at me! I'm Misty! I traveled with Ash before you so I get first dibs! Too bad for you! Let's go and have Ash chase me and keep him there for 2 hours!

Brock and Max just looked at May.

"WHAT!?"

"Nothing!" May just growled.

"So were Ash and Misty together or something?" Brock was shocked by that question. He smiled inwardly. May must like Ash...heh, sorry May but you're too late

"No, not really."

"Not really? You can't answer a question like that. It doesn't make sense! They either were or they weren't!"

"In that case no, they were not."

"Thank you." Good, so I do have a chance. Wait...what am I saying!? There is no competition. Ha! Ash and me are already together! (I know it's my story and I'm making her like this but I really do see her like this. Sorry if you don't.)

Brock, May, and Max stood at the entrance of the stadium for a little over two hours. Finally, they could make out two figures coming out of a clearing.

"There's Ash!" It became clear that the figures were not even three feet tall.

"Tic!" (Translating time...Did you see them!?)

"Pika! Chu pi kaa!" (Haha finally! I've been waiting for that moment for four years!)

Both Pokemon seemed to be laughing about something. Ash's absence was pushing May over the edge.

WHERE COULD HE BE!?

Brock on the other hand had no problem. The longer they are the better "They'll be back before too long. Don't worry May."

"Yeah and why do you really care where Ash and Misty are?" Max had to ask just to get on his sister's nerves. May couldn't respond for a while.

"No reason." she lied.

"Really now?"

"Shut up Max!" Again, the two siblings started fighting while Brock just stood and waited. Pikachu and Togetic had arrived and waited with Brock. Although he couldn't understand what they were saying, he had a good feeling on what it was about. He blushed slightly imagining what was going on and smiled knowing things were going well between the two teens.

Misty laid her head down on Ash's muscular chest and was listening to his heart beat. Ash was lying on the mossy forest floor combing his fingers through Misty's silky, red hair. Both were thinking the same thought.

I could stay like this forever

But both knew it couldn't last for that long. Misty soon raised herself up. "How long do you think we've been out here?"

"I don't know, but I'm sure more than an hour." With that they both laughed. Again the two were staring into each others eyes. Misty, though she didn't want to, knew that they should get going.

If only we could just stay here. It's so nice just us being alone

"We should get going..."

"Oh...yeah."

Ash just kept replaying what had just happened in his head. Those beautiful eyes boring into his, stray strands of red silk falling on his face, then the taste of strawberries and cream (mmm... lip gloss XD) in his own mouth. It was a moment he would never forget. He didn't think it would happen again either. The fact that they still hadn't told each other the truth about how the felt kept him reassured.

Misty, strangely felt the same way. She only thought that as a way to escape her own question. The all too familiar feeling of rejection stung her heart.

The two teens started making their way out of the forest. Only now had they noticed that their Pokemon were missing.

"Where's Togetic!?"

"Pikachu?"

After a few minutes of searching they figured they must have left during their make-out session (lol sorry I just had to say that!). Misty turned the color of her hair at the memory and so did Ash. Soon they were out of the forest and on the main road back to the stadium.

"I hope Brock and the others are still there."

Misty giggled. "I wouldn't be surprised if they left. We've been gone for a long time."

"I wonder how May's taking this." Ash chuckled at his little joke. "Knowing her she'd probably be jealous or something." Again Ash laughed.

Misty fell silent and just walked on. Ash then realized what he had said and kicked himself for his stupidity. But then another thought entered his mind. But did what we did back there really matter to her? Am I just a boy toy? (you can be if you want to!)

Finally, they could make out five figures in the distance. The sun was already setting and the twilight was coming into view. It could easily be 7 o' clock by now. They really had been gone for a long time.

"THERE YOU TWO ARE! Jeez! We thought you were dead or something!" May was relieved to see Ash but then Misty popped into view. Brock was getting tired and Max was already asleep on a nearby bench.

"Let's get going to our hotel. Misty, do you have anywhere you can stay?"

"Oh...no, I wasn't planning on staying."

Pain shot through Ash at her words. So she was just playing me

"It's okay, you can stay with us. We did get a suite, I'm sure there's enough room."

"Thanks Brock!"

"Anytime."

The gang started walking to their hotel. Ash, who was silent the whole time, in between May and Misty, Max over Brock's shoulder asleep, and Togetic and Pikachu a few feet ahead. Once there, they checked in, went to their room, and made the sleeping arrangements for their new guest.

"May, is it okay if Misty can share your room?"

Ooooooh no. She is NOT going to be in my room! Well... At least this way I know she's not near Ash "Yeah sure!" Stupid bitch

Max slept on the couch, since he was the only one who could fit on it, and Ash and Brock shared their own room.

As the sun set and the moon rose, sleep enveloped the group.

Misty woke early that morning. She took a shower, brushed her teeth, and washed her face. She was about to exit her and May's room to go down to the lobby to get breakfast when she was stopped.

"And where do you think you're going?" If she thinks she can just sneak off and go to Ash she's got another thing coming

"Uhh...to get breakfast? Is that okay with you Your Highness?" What the hell's up her ass?

"Hey! Just because I'm wondering where you're going doesn't mean you can act smart."

"Sowy mommy! If I be mowe nice can I get some ice cweam?" May was furious.

"Okay okay! SoooooRRY!"

"What the hell's your problem? God I go to get breakfast and you question me? Am I not supposed to be leaving the room?"

"I was just wondering... I didn't want you to get lost." May said in a matter of fact tone.

"I can manage on my own, thanks."

"Well sorrrrrry for caring."

"Okay seriously what's going on?"

"Nothing!" You just don't back down do you?

"Don't give me that crap, what are you hiding!?" God she's annoying...how does Ash stand her?

"NOTHING!" By now Ash and the others had woken up.

"What the HELL are you two yelling about?" Ash had entered the room. Bad move by him. May turned crimson. She was basically only in her bra and panties.

"PERVERT! GET OUT ITS CALLED KNOCKING!" Ash quickly left before he could get smacked. Misty got the message...

Ohhhh this is going to be good

"Oh so you like Ash?"

"Yea- WHAT NO!"

"Oh I see, so you were trying to keep me from him."

"Basical- NO! WHY WOULD I DO THAT?"

"Whatever..." She had gotten the answers she wanted.

"You're unbelievable do you know that?"

"Me!? I'm the unbelievable one? Wow, you must be a ditz."

"THAT'S IT! YOU'VE GONE TOO FAR!"

"OH MY GOD! WOULD YOU TWO SHUT THE HELL UP!?" Ash was getting a headache. He could hear them from his room which was on the other side of the suite!

"Oh. Sorry Ash. We'll be quieter!"

"THANK YOU!"

Misty just sat there smirking at May. She knew that she liked Ash as much as she did herself. May had the same thought.

Ash can only belong to one of us

"You like Ash don't you? I mean you were gone for two hours yesterday..."

"That's none of your business. But I don't think he shares the same feelings for me if you must know..."

"I've got an idea. Ash can only be with one of us. So I challenge you to a Pokemon battle!"

"Sounds good to me...what are we betting?"

Ohhh I'm good! "Ash."

"What!?"

"You heard me! Ash."

"Umm what about what he wants? He has feelings."

"Oh I already know what he wants." Misty just filled with pure rage. WHO THE HELL DOES SHE THINK SHE IS!? "Fine you know what I'm in! Winner gets Ash!"

Ohhh! This is by far the longest chapter lol. Oh man... this was just one huge bitch fight between May and Misty. lol it was great, while writing this chapter I got an email about a review just made. "P.S.: You're right about May and Max... I can't stand them... they can die (LOL)!" Lol I laughed at that one. Thanks for all the reviews! I never thought I'd make it this far. Let's find out who wins! Hopefully I'll have time to write chapter 4! Until then!
