T is for Time
Time was such a troublesome matter.
The male Pokémon Master kept flashing a look at the digital Pokéwatch on his wrist every so many minutes.
His Pikachu shook his head and smirked at his trainer in a knowing way.
Ash didn't realize this until he glanced at the Pokémon he was supposedly training.
Ash glared at his Pikachu and said, "Don't smirk, Pikachu."
Meanwhile on the other side of the city, there was an orange-haired beauty who was at the present moment teaching a water Pokémon class.
As she walked around the pool areas where a large variety of kids and their Pokémon were training, she would ask each one of them what time it was every few minutes.
Misty was clearly anxious for something.
Although the two did not know it, they both said the same thing at the same time, "What can't time go by faster?"
Ash rubbed the back of his neck, "This is so dumb, it's supposed to be our vacation. And we get to spend some of the limited time we have for vacation doing things that we do every day!"
Misty looked out the window, "This isn't good, we don't have a lot of time for our long awaited vacation anyways and now we're stuck working?"
Pikachu looked at his trainer and shook his head. He silently climbed up to the top of Ash's head.
As the two gazed out to who knows where, someone appeared to each of them.
A female around Misty's age ran into the water Pokémon class, "Misty, can you come out here, I need to speak with you."
Misty looked confused as she walked outside the classroom, "Ashley? What are you doing here?"
Ashley smiled, her brown eyes twinkling. She was Ash's cousin and looked identical to him, they had the same brown eyes, the same raven hair, and even had a Pikachu.
Ashley did a peace sign and winked, "Just go to Ash, I'll take over your class. I know it's your vacation time and it wasn't right for you to get roped into this. Go to the Pokémon center, he'll meet you there."
Misty smiled and hugged Ashley and said, "Thank you!"
Ashley smiled and said, "Now run before they catch you!"
Meanwhile, someone had stumbled upon Ash's training area.
"Milos? What are you doing here? You're usually with Ashley, aren't you?" Ash had taken a moment to recognize his cousin's boyfriend.
Milos grinned, "You are on vacation with your girlfriend, no?"
Ash had taken a few moments to try and understand what Milos had said in his thick accent.
"Yeah, I'm on vacation with Misty." Ash replied.
"Then go to her. She's waiting for you at the Pokémon Center. Hurry." Milos said.
Ash flashed a look at his watch, "Has she been waiting long?"
Milos shrugged, "I do not know, Ashley simply told me to tell you the message."
Ash nodded and Pikachu knew to hold on to Ash's head tightly as Ash started to bolt through the park to get to the Pokémon center.
Misty had started to run to the Pokémon center as soon as she snuck out of the Pokémon School.
The two had arrived at the Pokémon Center at the same time, but hadn't noticed each other although they had stopped directly in front of each other.
They were panting and were obviously very tired.
Then the two looked up, their eyes met.
Misty's lips curved into a wide grin and Ash's lips did the same thing.
"Ash!" Misty said as she closed the distance between them and fell into his open, awaiting arms.
"It seems like we haven't seen each other in the longest time." Misty said as she buried her face into Ash's chest.
Ash grinned and placed his hands firmly on her waist and lifted her up.
Misty yelped in shock and looked down at him, her cerulean eyes glowing and her orange hair fell around her face, curtaining it from the world.
Ash smiled up at her, "Time will soon be irrelevant, because we're going to be married soon, soon-to-be Mrs. Ash Ketchum."
Misty smiled, "We'll have all the time in the world."
Ash grinned, "You're timeless to me."
Misty placed her hands onto his face and said, "I love you and no matter how much time comes and goes, I always will."
Ash nodded, "I know."
And that was all the time watching couple needed.
