Ash let Misty and his mom finish talking so he can shower about five minutes after his shower misty called using the new pokedex phone addition he got from his return to Hoenn region. Ash answered "Yeah?"he asked.

"Hey Ash its Misty" Misty said on the other line

"Oh hey Misty" he said more enthusiastic.

This cheered her up.

"I realized I may have been a bit strange when I randomly requested your presence in Cerulean"

"Don't worry Misty I'm still coming which I figured I'll cut time if I just up and leave now for diglett cave in Pewter which takes me to Vermillion and I can just ride my bike from there to Cerulean in no time I'll be there as you lay to sleep I'll just bunk in the pokemon center for the night" ash said putting on his new outfit which was a larger version of his first outfit on his journey through Kanto.

"But won't your mom get worried?"

"Left her a note and my pokedex number I'm in viridian city heading to the forest now be there soon"

"Ok ash two things before we hang up"

"Mmk"

"One be careful and two I'm not the gym leader in cerulean I found an apprentice who learned quickly I quit my job when I found she was ready and well you know her, Ash"

"I promise not to be reckless Misty and who is she?"

"It's May"

"Really? That's awesome tell her I said congrats"

"I knew you'd say that Ash already told her you'd say that also your Bulbasaur came to me and rubbed his head on my leg when he saw me, Oak and, your mom all know that pokemon start acting like their trainers so do you have something to tell me?" Misty asked curious.

Ash was hesitant to answer right away.

"I uh..." manged Ash.

"Yes Ash?" Misty said confused.

"I'm having trouble telling you over the 'dex I will tell you in person", he said hanging up.

Hmmmmmm I wonder why she quit her job, Ash thought to himself

Meanwhile in cerulean city...

"What am i going to wear tomorrow?" Misty asked herself with several outfits, her Psyduck was trying to help her pick out clothes. May came in.

"So you going tell him how you feel?" May asked Misty.

"Yeah tomorrow I will", said Misty.

"Would you like help picking out your outfit for your date with Ash ?" May asked. At the word "date" Misty smiled and nodded. May smiled and started looking through Misty's outfits.

"You do know He'll be in his own little world, right?" May asked looking at a blouse Misty layed on the bed imagining how good it would look on Misty.

"I know but I have an idea that may have him share that world of his with me," Misty said blushing.

May looked at the rest of the outfits and pointed to one specific one "That one right there would look absolutely stunning on you", she said. Misty nodded and set it on her dresser then she stared down at the clock reliving her conversation with Ash's mom in her head:

Misty: Welcome back Mrs. Ketchem

Ash's mom: Thank you Misty dear but we both know you can call me mom or Delia So how'd it go

Misty: Well I kinda told him without telling him yet

Delia: well Misty you already seen that he's become quite the looker.

Misty: That's for sure

Delia: So when do I get a new daughter-in-law

Misty: What?

Delia: Oh come on now Misty your crush on him is no secret I know how you feel about him….

Delia's words Stunned and replayed over and over again in Misty's head and honestly she loved the thought of being Delia's daughter in law or rather the thought of being Ash's wife she smiled to herself her thoughts running wild and drifted of into a deep sleep.
