PLEASE read the song lyrics or you won't understand it!!!! The song is She's Always A Woman To Me by a man with unmistakeable talent, Billy Joel!!

POKESHIPPING!!

Dedication: SHO!!! i luv ya!!!!

Ash: 14 Misty: 15

Ash is wearing what he did in the Diamond and pearl series, and Misty is wearing what she did when she was in Hoenn.

I did delete this, because there were a few lines of the song that weren't bolded and italicized(sp?). so, here ya go. its back up!!! : D

~!#$%^&*()_+

Ash Ketchum slugged his backpack over his shoulder and walked down the empty corridors of his deserted hallways, his Pikachu at his feet.

He had, once again, gotten a detention for forgetting to turn in his homework. The teacher had already left, so he had to fend for himself in getting home.

He passed the band room.

But he walked right back and smirked.

There was a piano.

He smiled. His mother had pestered him into learning to play it when he was about six years old. He'd only said yes because she wouldn't stop nagging him about it. He looked around to see if anyone was around.

No one was with in ear range.

The piano was a large one with oak finish. He sat on the wooden stool and put his backpack on the ground next to him. Pikachu jumped onto the seat next to him.

With one more quick look around, he placed his fingers on the smooth keys, and pressed them rapidly to form a song.

He smiled and whispered to himself as he played,

"She can kill with a smile."

That was the truth! That Misty is smiling one minute, but that smile could turn into a viscious murderous look!

"She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies."

He chuckled at that. That was also the truth.

"And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child
But she's always a woman to me."

That Misty... Most of her is a secret, but what she wants you to see she lets you. She'll hide her face, but show it to friends.

And she was a woman to Ash.

"She can lead you to live
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth But she'll never believe you."

She never did believe him...

"And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free
She steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me."

Ash smiled. He got a little louder as he sang and ignored the feeling as if someone other than Pikachu was watching,

"Oh, she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind."

She never gives up. That's her! Give in, give up, give out, give down ((A/N XD))! Never!

"She will promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden."

She'd once promised him to give him the last cookie his mother had made them. She told him to spin around three times and say Pikachu.

He did it.

And Misty almost choked in laugher because...

She ate the cookie. ((A/N XD I got that from Riddle Me This, the episode. except Gary said it, not Misty))

"Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleedin'."

If she didn't hate blood as much as she did, she would probably do that to him.

"But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me.
She is frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel."

That was also true.

"She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
But she can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me."

Ash stopped playing the song and smiled at his faithful yellow rodent. He put his hand on his head and rubbed between its ears.

Then he picked the Pokemon up and held it to his face as he said, "You tell anyone what I just did, I'll give you to the Pidgeot."

Pikachu giggled and gave him a light shock before jumping out of his arms and into his backpack. Ash fell to the ground anime style.

He heard girl's laughing. He stood up immediatly and saw her.

Misty.

She was beautiful as ever, her cerulean eyes and fiery orange hair. It was still up in its ponytail.

Ash flushed as he said, "Uh... H-Hey M-Mi-Misty. H-How long have ya been here?"

"Who knew you could sing!" she giggled, covering her mouth, as he turned redder. Pikachu snickered. Ash sent it a death glare as it burrowed farther into his backpack.

Misty walked around him and sat on top of the piano, her slender legs dangling off the side.

"So what was that you were sing- I mean, screeching?" she asked smirking.

Ash scowled as he sat down on the stool again. He replied, "Nothin'."

"Who was it about?"

He blushed worse.

"Aw no one."

Misty rolled her eyes, crossed her legs and looked around.

Ash noticed something that made him shift uncomfortably. When they were younger, Misty had been flat as a book.

But now she was well, not...

Ash looked away as Misty said, "Please tell me?"

He sighed.

"F-Fine. I guess that I... I kinda... sorta... well, l-like ya..."

Now Misty was blushing as she turned back to him.

"Y-You do?"

"Actually, I love you."

Misty smiled and moved so she was on her hands and knees on top of the piano in front of him. She lied on her stomach, put her elbows on the wood and her chin in her palms.

"Really? You're not lying?"

"I wouldn't lie about something like that," Ash said as he sat next to her on the piano. She rolled on to her side so she was facing him. The arm that wasn't under his head went back to her side.

"Wow. I guess that I love you, too."

Ash smiled and put a hand on her cheek. He leaned over and kissed her. She kissed back more forcefully than he did. Their eyes shut and their heads tilted. Misty grabbed his collar and pulled him on top of her. He licked her upper lip, tasting her strawberry lip gloss, until she parted her lips, giving him entrance to her mouth. He sat so that his legs were on either side of her waist and that his hands were on her sides. Misty's hands were running through his jet black hair.

"WHOA!" they heard.

Upon looking up, they saw their friend, Brock Rockoni.

"Uhhhh... hey, Brock." Misty said. Neither had any intention of moving.

"Yeah, uh hey. You know," he folded his arms, "I thought I'd only see a make out scene on top of a piano in corny romance shows. But... okay."

((A/N T.T their not all corny... I'll get you Brock!!!! *shakes fist angrily* LOL.. leaving now...))

"Uhm, could you go now?" Ash asked slightly annoyed.

"Fine." Brock rolled his eyes and walked away.

"Hey, Myst?" he said as she began to suck his neck.

"Mhm?"

He cupped her chin and smiled as he said, "You may be the most viscious, annoying, cruel person in the world. You could lie, or cry or hide or whatever. But you know what? You'll always be a woman to me. The woman I love."

~!#$%^&*()_+

Me: wow that was a cheesey ending.
Ash: tell me about it.
Me: usualy, i'd get offended about it and do the whole "dark room, facing away from [insert two or more characters names here], rain cloud above, sulking" thing, but since its comin from you, i dont really care.
Misty: BURN!
Brock: But it was a cheesey scene. i mean, i musta seen that at least 40 times before.
Me: (dark room, facing away from Brock, Ash and Misty, rain cloud above, sulking) NOT THREE TIMES!! stupid fictional characters- makin me upset!
Ash, Misty, & Brock: three?
Me: yes THREE! u, Paul and Drew!
Misty: poor Manny! review and tell her that her ending wasn't cheesey and the piano make out seen wasn't corny!
Brock & Ash: THAT MEANS YOU!
