Hi! I'm back! With yet another chapter! I quite like this one. And Misty loves her nerdy glasses. And thanks so so so much for my five reviews! I mean, it's a lot for me, at least.
A lot of people have been questioning about May and Drew. I just wanted to clear it up quickly. There should be a happy ending. If I'm not being mean. And also why is there a 'contest shipping' in the description? Huh? HUH?!
I don't own Pokemon.
Chapter Three
"Wait you?" Misty gasped.
"Who else would I be?" Ash asked, raising an eyebrow playfully.
Misty flushed red. Oh her nerdy glasses, he was cute.
"I don't know." She pouted.
"Ok Miss Helpline-" Ash started.
"Call me by my real name please. And you promised not to tell anyone." Misty snapped.
"I promise. And uh..I don't really know your name." Ash said sheepishly.
Misty clicked her tongue impatiently, slightly offended.
"Oh of course the great Ash Ketchum wouldn't remember the name of the girl who sat in front of you all through grade four and five." Misty said sarcastically.
"Oh I remember! Missy!" Ash grinned.
"That's even worse. It's Misty. With a t. Now get that right and I won't tell anyone of this meeting."
"Alright Miss Bossy."
"And no flirting either."
"Yes Miss."
"Good. And I want to make a deal."
"A deal?"
"Well done Mr Obvious. You help me be less of a nerd and stuff and I'll help you get a serious girlfriend. Deal?"
"Ugh ok. Deal."
They flopped into the seats and Misty started talking.

"Wait, a date?"
May shivered in excitement. Drew was asking her on a date. A date! See, maybe he was bisexual. That would show Dawn and Misty!
"Eh.. I was just hoping to see if I'm bisexual or not." Drew muttered.
May clenched her fist. That stupid boy! Getting her hopes up like this! And so she slapped him. Hard. On the cheek.
"Go and snog someone else for your 'test' and let me remind you that I know you look at my answers in maths." May flounced away, a shadow of a tear forming in her eye.
Drew sighed. Maybe those weren't the right words. Or maybe it was because of his reputation. He was gay. He was a playboy. He had just hurt the only person who might have helped him be bisexual. Time to go to plan B.

"So, you have anger problems?" The counsellor asked.
"I thought they already told you these things." Paul growled.
"I was just confirming. How about your family?" The counsellor plastered a fake smile on her face.
"My parents are dead and my brother looks after me." Paul snapped.
"Oh sorry."
"You don't sound very sorry."
"Oh about your brother…Reggie, is it?"
"Yep."
"I'm sorry Paul but we may have to rehome you…"
"Are you insulting my brother? Sure he might be a drug dealer, and he's gay, and he's set up a matchmaking business, but he's still family."
Paul stood up.
"I'm going. Nice to meet you. Bye."

"Hang on. You need some cheerleaders?" Dawn chewed on the end of her pen nervously.
"That's right." Casey twirled a baseball bat on her finger. "Twelve please. By Thursday."
"Ok Casey. Twelve up and running for you by Thursday." Dawn sighed.
"Thanks Dawn. You're way more organised than Serena." Casey grinned.
"Where is Serena?" Dawn asked, curious.
"One word. Playboys." Casey said, smiling sympathetically.
"Aww. She really must have fallen in love with him."
"That's right. Anyway, I have to go."
Casey skipped out, leaving Dawn. Dawn sighed. Getting elected to be the lead cheerleader was tough. She needed something to help her relax. Just then her phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hi is this Dawn Berlitz?"
"Oh hi! What can I do for you?"
"I might need some help from you…"

Misty groaned. He might've been cute, but he sure wasn't smart.
"So girls don't like playboys?"
"Of course not! How would they like it if their boyfriend went off with another girl? You would get dumped!"
"Oh right. So I have to stop? But it'll ruin my reputation!"
"Your title is not something to be proud of. And yes, please stop. I don't want more letters saying how you don't notice your pathetic fan girls."
"Then maybe for that reason I'll keep my title."
"Would you like your head to be turned into a pancake?"
"No thanks. I like my head."
"Yeah, big and empty."
"Hey!"
Ash scowled. Misty raised an eyebrow.
"Now, how about my part of the deal?" Misty smiled, knowing she had the upper hand.
"Ok. You're clothes are too ugly. Your hair is messy. The ponytail is disgusting. Your shoes are muddy. You're a nerd. You write letters to people for fun. You hang out with nerds. You…"
"I didn't say to freakin' insult me! And you can pay. I'm leaving."
Misty glared at him, running out of the door. Ash felt a pang of guilt. Maybe he did have to change his character. But he couldn't! Not after all his hard work. No wonder he always got top grades in drama. He was so good at it, that every minute of his life was fake. But he was too scared to show the world the real Ash Ketchum. And he couldn't bear to think of the consequences.
Misty ran home. Sure, home wasn't exactly 'homely' but it was the first place that came into mind. Except for school.
"Misty? You're back!" The three sisters sang in unison.
"Don't expect me to be in your water play." Misty grumbled.
"But Misty! After all we've done for you…" Lily started.
"Don't you start on that crap! I've given up all of my dreams so you guys can be happy! Can't you appreciate that? I work my heart out, doing errands after school and at the weekends, yet you spend it all on ballet clothes and that stuff!" Misty exploded.
"Misty, our mother wanted us to do this." Daisy whispered quietly.
"Our mothers dead!" All four sisters flinched. "And our father ran away after she died! We can do whatever we want! We've had enough water ballets for a lifetime, can't you guys get a real job? Not some water show that hardly rakes in any money?"
"You shouldn't be the one saying this!" Violet cried.
"Yeah, it's because of you she died!" Lily shouted.
"We could've had our mother here with us if she didn't have you. And you. Were. An. Accident. You hear me?" Daisy growled.
"THAT'S ENOUGH. I'M LEAVING AND I'M LEAVING FOR GOOD. GOODBYE SISTERS."
Misty shoved her stunned sisters out of the way, pulling her emergency bag with her. She had always expected this to happen. But where could she go? She had fallen out with May and Dawn, and she didn't really have any other friends. She tried not to think about it.
She walked down the streets, the heavy rain beating down on her, and after some walking, she fainted, exhaustion taking over her.

A/N: so I made Paul have anger issues. And I'm sorry Reggie. It was the closest thing to a breeder and I needed to make you unsuitable for looking after Paul. XD So many gay people.
And Misty sure got fired up. I would've if I had those sisters.
Please review, follow and favourite.
