G is for Girl

In a field of flowers in the middle of a grouping of trees was a pond and beside the pond sat Misty Waterflower.

She seemed to have blossomed into a beautiful young woman since her younger days, but the look of pure disappointment in her face slightly tarnished her beauty, which suited a smile much better.

Misty shook her head sadly, why couldn't she get through to her thickheaded best friend?

Her head was consumed by thoughts of the oblivious, handsome Pokémon trainer.

She sighed once again and suddenly a Pikachu scrambled towards her, "Pikachu? What are you doing here? Where's Ash?"

Pikachu shrugged and Misty groaned and fell onto the grass.

She turned on her side to face Pikachu and ask, "Why is Ash so oblivious?"

Pikachu didn't know how to answer himself, Ash was oblivious from the moment the yellow lightning Pokémon had met him.

"I mean, he sees the most idiotic things, like when I'm feeling sad and when I'm mad, but why can't he see the main thing?" Misty asked shaking her head sadly.

Pikachu seemed interested now, cocking his ears.

Misty smiled, "Well for one, why can't he see just how much I love him?"

Pikachu snuggled into Misty's lap, as if saying, 'I'm sorry Ash is such an idiot.'

Misty laughed; her eyes were gentle as she thought of her crush.

She wasn't sure exactly when she had started falling for the dark haired, brown eyed boy but she had fallen hard.

She sighed stroking Pikachu's head and whispered, "Why can't he see that I'm a girl?"

She smiled wryly, "Why can't he see that I'm a girl, and not one of the guys."

Pikachu stared up at the fiery redhead, seeing the tears that were threatening to spill, "Why can't he see how hard I try for him?"

"I grew out my hair for him because I thought it would bring him to think that I was more of a girl to him then a guy if I had long hair!" She said angrily pulling at her long orange locks.

She didn't know however that a certain Pokémon master was standing behind her, watching her rant.

"Doesn't he realize that I wear make-up everyday to try and highlight my better features? Doesn't he realize that I spent hours upon hours trying to find the right make-up that would bring out my eyes?" She said as she touched her face looking into the pond's reflection.

"Doesn't he realize that I wear girly clothes now? I wear dresses, skirts, and all other things that May and Dawn chose for me when we met up before, but does he notice this? NO!" She clutched at her beautiful light blue dress that made her skin glow and her eyes pop.

"Does he see the jewelry that I carefully wear to match my outfits? Pikachu, tell me did I ever wear jewelry on our previous journeys together?" She felt at her ears and her neck and fiddled with the bracelets on her wrist.

"Pikachu, why do I try so hard to make him realize that I'm a girl, a girl who's madly in love with him, just to have him not see me?" Misty asked tears now running down her face, ruining her carefully put on make-up.

She suddenly felt two strong arms around her waist.

Misty gasped and was about to yell when she felt his voice in her ear, "Misty I notice all that you do."

"I see your long hair and wish everyday to touch it, to run my hands through your hair."

"I see your beautiful face, make-up or no make-up and I want to take your face in my hands and smother you with kisses."

"I see what you wear and wonder who you dress up for every single day, and think how lucky the guy is to have you."

"I know that you try hard to impress someone every day, and I definitely know that you are a girl."

He spun Misty around to face him and his eyes were glowing with love, "Misty, you aren't just a girl, you're the girl of my dreams. I don't care if you smack me with your mullet or get angry at me, I just love that you notice me and you see me and you pay attention to me."

Misty was still crying as she heard the words come out of Ash's mouth.

Ash smiled and said, "Mist, I love you."

He took her face in his hands and kissed her forehead, "And I definitely know you are a girl."
