Egoshipping Strawberry

Okay so I've updated but I'd like to say that it's only a build up chapter to something else (that I hope I won't forget).

Disclaimer: Darn it! I was unsuccessful in hi-jacking the Pokemon company and my side-kick (Tomboycountrygirl10) was attacked by Paul, the emo door man.

Chapter 2: No Big Deal

Gary used his shoulders to prop his body up slightly. He was lying peacefully on the grass (thinking about a certain exchange that he was positive that he wasn't suppose to have overheard) before he sensed someone staring at him.

Misty. He saw her there on the other side of the feild... Well, he didn't exactly see her- it was more like he was blinded by her necklace (again).

'Curse that necklace.' Gary thought as his eyes recovered from the light. He looked up to see Misty standing directly in front of him. On the outside, Gary managed to remain his cool image but on the inside, he jumped while thinking how Misty made it across the feild so fast.

"Gary Oak at a strawberry feild?" Misty questioned. She didn't sit down mostly because she enjoyed the view from where she was standing and she also felt slightly more superior than Gary who she always had to literally look up at.

"Why? Problem?" Gary questioned back. He didn't bother to get up or invite Misty down.

"No. I just would've thought that you'd be in bed suffering a major hang over from the night before or that you'd be off somewhere with your girlfriend..." Misty said before she added one stressed letter, "sss." meaning that she expected Gary to have more than one girlfriend.

Gary smirked as he looked at his black button up shirt that wasn't too tight or too loose on him. "You know me so well."

Misty sat down on his right hand side. "Not really if I geussed you were doing that instead of being here." Misty simply said. She picked up a large strawberry from the runners behind them and took a bite out of it. " These really are nice... I geuss that farmer wasn't kidding."

"What, you don't know?" Gary asked, "Do you need me to repeat the lecture that Coffe over there tells everyone?"

"Coffee? Lecture?" Misty repeated, "Who bought Coffee and lecture into the conversation? I don't even like Coffee."

Gary shook his head and sat up. "Coffee is the farmer's name and unless you buy something from him, he'll lecture you until you do."

Misty thought about the farmer's name. 'Coffee. Coffee. What kind of name is that?"

"I know." Gary said while looking at the Miltanks in one of the feilds that was directly in front of them then the Taurus in the other feild towards the left from where he was facing, "You're thinking about his name. But in his defense, his father was called Espresso."

Misty had started to pick some of the strawberries but stopped to try to restrain herself from laughing when she heard Coffee's dad's name. "What was his mother called. Latte?"

"No. She was named after his great-great-great grandma." Gary corrected her.

"So her name was Millie." Misty said before she placed a small strawberry into her mouth and swallowing it before she spoke again.

Gary nodded as he reached out for a strawberry from behind Misty and himself even though that little spot behind them was almost strawberry-less.

"But you still haven't actually answered my question." Misty stated before she reworded it, "Why are you here, at a strawberry feild?"

Gary shock his head at her question disapprovingly. "Can't I just come out to the open and relax without any questions?" he started to stand up.

Misty followed his actions. "Where are you going?" She asked once she stood up.

"Back to Pallet Town before the place becomes crowded." he answered as he continued to walk.

Misty caught up to him and walked along side him.

They walked past the old farm house and before they knew it, they could see the gate and Coffee, who wasn't going to let them leave without a long talk. But luckily for them, Gary knew a quick way out of it.

"Leaving so soon?" the old man known as Coffee asked.

Gary nodded. "You know why I always choose to come early rather than late." Gary said as he looked down to his watch, "And it's almost twelve. Your business for today is going to start rolling in soon."

Coffee looked at Misty. "Are you leaving too?" he asked her.

Misty thought for a while. "Yeah." she finally answered, "I need to get walking. But I'll see you again." Misty ran after Gary, who was only a few metres ahead of her.

Gary turned his head slightly to look at her. "Trying to hitch-hike lift back to Pallet Town?" Gary smirked.

"Maybe." Misty said in a way that signified she doesn't mind walking.

Gary pulled his car keys out of his pockets to unlock his red convertible. He walked over to the passengers side of the car and opened the door before he looked at Misty.

"Maybe I don't need a lift." Misty said, "Maybe I like to walk." But then her stomach grumbled.

Gary let out a small chuckle at the loud noises that was being produced by Misty's hungriness. "You know, I'm sure you know what that means right." Gary smirked, "You need food and you could get food quicker if you took my offer. I might not be so kind next time."

Misty thought about it before she climbed into his car- which in Misty's opinion was too flamboyant for her liking. Bright red was not her colour.

Misty remained silent during the journey from the out skirts of Pallet Town to the town itself. To her, it wasn't even the nice, comforting type of silence. She thought about speaking but anything she said could lead them to the subject of Gary's girlfriend... And her threat.

Gary on the other hand didn't mind the silence but he did think that it was unlike him to have company on his car and not talk to them. So to break it, he finally spoke up, "Where are you heading to?" he asked her.

Misty then remembered that her house was completely out of food. "Actually, the local supermarket would be good. My house is... foodless" Misty replied but too be honest, she wasn't sure if foodless is a wird or not but it couldn't have been that bad if Gary understood what she meant..

Gary thought her answer was a bit strange. "If you live in Cerulean City then should you not wait till you get there before you do the food shopping?"

It was then when Misty realised that Gary didn't know. She laughed to herself, "I don't anymore 'cause I moved here yesterday." Misty said which caused Gary to halt the car. Misty's body flew forward until he chest hit the dashboard. "Ouch." Misty shouted.

Gary looked at Misty. "Come again?" Gary said although he heard her clearly. He looked forward again after he saw Misty's look that confirmed what he had heard was correct. "You live in Pallet Town now?"

Misty nodded. "Why are you making such a big deal out of it."

That was a good question that he did not know the answer to... Yet. But what he did know is that things are going to get interesting around here.

Well, there was kind of a little bit egoshipping. But Let me just say, this is going to be longer than 'Love Life/ web Wrangler'.
