Year of the Ships-Part 2
A/N- Hello, and welcome back to YOTS! This time, it's Jessie and James that I am putting into awkward romantic situations!
Now, I got two reviews last night. One of them asked a question. No, I will not just be doing the regular shippings, but I will try to do as many as possible within a year. I might extend it for longer but that is not likely.
The other review was sort of insulting my grammar. Farla, I know you probably didn't have the intention of being insulting, but my writing style is my writing style. I'm sorry if my grammar is annoying to you, but this is how I've always written and I'm not going to change it just because of one person's opinion. If you don't like it, then please, don't read it. Also, I only wrote that I thought it was terrible because I usually don't get such good reviews on my shipping stories. It took a huge burst of confidence and strength to even post this, and then to find this review on here telling me off for having bad grammar...It made me feel really horrible. I don't need people ruining my day with a bad review. Thank you, that is all.
Now, after that huge rant, I'd like to say, enjoy!

"...and then we swoop in and grab Pikachu!" Jessie finished, swatting one fist into her palm.
James nodded. "This plan sounds perfect!" He squealed, in a very, very unmanly way. "One question, though... Do we have to act as a married couple?" He asked.
Meowth nodded. "I agree wit Jimmy. Why do I hafta be da baby?" He whined. Jessie facepalmed, staring at both with a deadpan expression on her face.
"We have tried everything else in the case of catching that Pikachu. We hijack ships. We build giant mechas. We even just straight out grab Pikachu and run. None of it works." She ranted, pacing back and forth on the forest floor. "This time, we act as a married couple, all lovey-dovey and such, and they just sop it up. You know how much that brunette twerp loves romantics. Anyway, then, while they're not looking, we take Pikachu and stuff him in this bag." She finished, holding up said sack.
"Er... Alright, but no kissing!" James said, sticking his tongue out at the mere thought.
Jessie sighed. "Of course, James. Why would we ever kiss?"
*******************************Line Break********************************
"We shall nevah speak of dis. Ever." Meowth said, annoyed, staring at his outfit. He was wearing the most ridiculous costume he had ever seen, and that included the Snorlax one at that medicine place.
"Of course we won't, Meowth." James lied, already thinking of the blackmail. He readjusted one of the many frilly, pink bows on Meowth's dress, and tied a baby bonnet over his charm.
"Smile!" Jessie cried, and she snapped a picture of the poor Scratch Cat Pokemon. James stood up.
"Oooh! Let me see!" He said, peeking over Jessie's shoulder. Meowth growled, extracting his claws. He jumped up to strike...
"There's the twerps!" Jessie whispered, jumping out of the path of Meowth's fury swipes.
She straighted her dress, brushing off imaginary dirt. "Ready, honey?" She asked in a fake sweet voice.
James nodded, swallowing. "Yes, dear." He said, resigning himself to his fate. Meowth jumped into the stroller they had set up, plastering on a dopey, cute face.
Jessie grabbed James' arm and dragged him out onto the street. "Put your arm around my waist." She hissed. James slowly put his arm around her, nervously smiling at the group of "twerps" approaching the trio.
"Oh! Hello, there! You must be trainers, judging by your lovely Pikachu!" James cried, acting out his part.
Ash smiled. "Yeah! I'm Ash Ketchum, from Pallet Town," He said. "and this is Pikachu!" He said, gesturing to the yellow mouse on his shoulder.
"My name's Max."
"And I'm May!"
"Hi, I'm Brock."
"Oh, hello, my name is Jessebelle!" Jessie said, grimacing through her fake smile when James stiffened.
"And... And...Ouch! Er, my name is Jimmy." James said, finally coming to his senses after a kick from Jessie's high heeled shoe.
"Nice to meet you." Ash said. "Your kid is cute." He said, pointing to the disguised Meowth in the baby stroller.
"Oh! Thank you! Yes, little Matthew is very adorable!" Jessie said, pinching Meowth's cheeks. Right then and there, the cat Pokemon vowed revenge on Jessie's poor soul.
"You must be a very happy couple to have a kid." May said, looking at Meowth happily. "You certainly look happy."
"Yes, I certainly love my wonderful Jimmy!" Jessie said. James blushed.
"Heh, yes, and Jess is so beautiful!" He said, emphasizing the beautiful. He reached up to rub her hair in a fake romantic sort of way, and accidentally tousled the wig she was wearing.
A few strands of magenta hair began to pop out of the blond wig, and Jessie nervously pushed them back in, sending death glares towards James.
"Is something wrong with your hair?" Ash asked. "It's turning pink..."
"Oh, nonononono, nothing's wrong at all! Sorry, we have to go!" Jessie said quickly, grabbing James' hand and Meowth's stroller and hightailing it out of there.
Ash looked at his companion's, confused. "Huh. Strange couple. They sort of reminded me of someone..."
*******************************Line Break********************************
"James! YOU RUINED THE WHOLE PLAN!" Jessie raged, waving her mallet wildly.
James cowered in a corner of the clearing, whimpering. "I'm sorry! You said we had to look romantic, and I wasn't about to kiss you-"
"Why wouldn't you kiss me?" Jessie asked, suddenly quiet. James gasped, realizing his mistake.
"Oh, no, I didn't mean it like that! I meant what I said back there, you are very beautiful..." He said, blushing madly.
Jessie mumbled something. James looked at her, confusion filling his eyes. "What was that?" He asked.
"Yurcuttoo" She mumbled, still quietly. James smiled.
"Jessie, speak up."
"You're cute too!" She yelled, blushing madly and looking down at her feet. James blushed, moving in closer.
"Why, thank you, Mrs. Jessebelle." He said, shuddering slightly at the name that invoked nightmares.
Jessie looked up. "You know, maybe kissing wouldn't have been such a bad idea..." She muttered. James smiled.
"Ya know, I was just thinking the same thing." He said, and they kissed, both with faces redder than a Charmeleon.
Meowth walked into the clearing, holding a basket of bread. "Hey, guys, I was think-" He dropped his basket in surprise. "Well, nevah gonna unsee dat." He said, turning tail and walking out of the forest clearing.
