Well here I am. Writing again. It hasn't been that long. It's only been *looks at the last updated thingy at the top* about a month and a half O.O. Well time sure does fly when you have exams and a *explicatory* girlfriend turned ex that make you the laughing stock of the entire grade. O well, that's high school for ya. Any way, enough about my personal life, let's get back to Ash and May's!

And sorry for not finishing this story before Christmas itself, as that was my original goal. I was going to do it this week, since I don't have school, but then the family came in town and that just surprisingly sucked up a lot of time.

The Shady Walk Back

We rejoin our heroes as they are walking back to the Ketchum house for Christmas. May was humming a little tune and Ash was deep in thought.

Ok, so now that May's here, what do I do? Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I have no idea what we are going to do until then. I never planned this part of the week. Well, there is the easy way out of this. "So May, what do you want to do today?"

"Well, we could always just go to your house and chill. I mean, we haven't seen each other in a long time, and we do have some catching up to do. The other thing we could do, is go to the park and chill there. Either one sounds good to me."

Of course May puts the decision on me. O well, I rather not be in the house all day, so… "Let's go to the park!" exclaimed Ash.

"Ok, but first I need to tell you something."

"Sure, what do you want to tell me?" pondered Ash.

"Well…" Should I tell him now how I feel? If I tell him now, and he doesn't love me back, then that could just make the rest of my trip awkward with him. I think I'll wait to do it. I need to wait for the perfect moment. "I just wanted to tell you that I'm so going to beat you to the park!" And with that May grabbed Ash's hat and sprinted off towards the park.

"Wait a second, what just happened?" a confused Ash questioned. "May! Get back here!" And with that Ash took off towards May, but not without someone noticing. A person with grass green eyes looked at the running figures of Ash and May through a pair of binoculars. "Well, at least I found her. Unfortunately, that Ketchum kid seems to like her, and it would seem that she likes him too. No matter, once my plan is complete, she will fall into my open arms and will love me!" And then the mysterious green eyed man slipped into the shadows, hoping to accomplish his one Christmas wish. To capture May's heart!

Ok, so I know this is really short, but hopefully I can put up another on tomorrow to make up for it. This might just be done before New Years, and then I can make a New Years epilogue of something neat like that. Ok, until next time, and when I get all my wonderful presents, this has been Webby, a.k.a advanceshippingx2
