Chapter 9- "Stuck With Each Other"
{A/N: Hi. Short chapter. Only like 700 words. Wow. No comment on that. Hope Y'all like the chapter.
I think I forgot the disclaimer last time… I don't own Pokémon I don't own Pokémon}
"WHAT?!"
The volume level of both Ash and Misty must've reached back to Saffron.
"Wait, Gail- think about this-" Ash started.
` "I have thought about it. And I've come to the conclusion that I'm quitting." She said, suddenly with confidence. It felt as if a ton of bricks had been lifted off her shoulders when she admitted that she was leaving.
"But Gail- If you leave, than I'm out of the game too!"
"Ash, I'm sorry. You're very sweet, and you know that. And you won't be alone. You will have a partner. It just won't be me." Gail said and kissed his cheek, but this time it was more of a friendly gesture. "I promise I'll keep in touch, you're a really great guy." She scribbled out her number on a piece of paper and gave it to him. "I promise you'll be okay." She vowed. The brown haired girl just hoped that she could keep that promise.
"Eric? So now I'm out too?! Did you even think to consult me first? I'm already an emotional wreck! And now you're dumping THIS on me!" Misty yelled, infuriated.
Eric winced. He wasn't even finished yet. "Misty, you still have a partner. But it isn't me. Abbie and I have decided to quit the show to be together."
"Well that's just good for you but I don't see…" She stopped as she realized what he was saying. "Eric, no. Please don't do this to me!" She pleaded.
"Gail and I realized we already found love. And we realized that you have already found love too." He looked at the ground with that one, not meeting Misty's eyes. "Just be strong. You two seem to hate each other, but Abbie and I have seen that you do care. So just give it time." He said, averting his eyes from her face. "So this is kind-of goodbye." He told her with a hug, to which she was unresponsive.
"Just go." She said, with a sudden interest in her shoes. "It's not that I want you gone or anything, I just want you to go before I actually get a chance to comprehend this. So please." Misty said with a little shove. Eric half smiled at her.
"Goodbye, Misty." He said and hugged her one last time before he stepped out the door to find his new girlfriend.
"Who's going to be my new partner? Gail, what if they're not as good as you?" Ash asked her, worried.
"Ash, they're just as good as me." Gail said with a little smile.
"Then Who is it?!"
"Okay Ash. I'm leaving the show to be with Eric…" Ash scowled at that, but Gail continued. "And since we're leaving…"
"Hold up, you're leaving me with MISTY?!" He asked, bewildered.
"Yes, Ash. You two are very close. So you will work out being together." Gail told him. There was a dull knock on the door. "That's for me." She said, standing up. "Goodbye, Ash." She said and hugged him. She then turned swiftly on her heel and with a flash of brown and red hair, Gail was gone.
"Goodbye, Gail…" Ash choked out, disliking the finality that came with it.
Some of the camera crew swarmed in after Gail had left. "So! You and Misty! Our newest couple!" They said as one of the cameras was shoved in his face.
Back in Cerulean City, Daisy screamed.
"Like, what is it?" Violet asked, walking in to the room where her sister was flipping out in. "OMG!" She squealed, jumping when she noticed it.
Lily walked in. "What's all the…" She then noticed what TV show was on. "Is that who I think…?"
"Yes!" Violet said in a high pitched voice.
"And now they're…?" Lily questioned.
"Yes! It's, like, DESTINY!" Daisy screamed again.
