Hi! Long time no see! Ok whatever. Just ignore me. I'm a bit all over the place cos my new studio is causing me sooooo much trouble! Also no flames please!
I don't own Pokemon or the song. The song is amazing! It's one of my favourites now! It's called This Kiss, by Carly Rae Jepson.
Chapter Eight
I went out last night
I'm going out tonight again
Anything to capture your attention (your attention)
And she's a real sweet girl
And you know I got a boy
Details we both forgot to mention (forgot to mention)
Why was she thinking about him? Her kiss with Gary. When Gary asked her to be his girlfriend. Whenever Gary hugged her, kissed her, put his arm around her. He was always in her mind.
And you, I always know where you are
And you always know where I am
We're taking it way too far
But I don't want it to end
This kiss is something I can't resist
Your lips are undeniable
This kiss is something I can't risk
Your heart is unreliable
Something so sentimental
You make so detrimental
And I wish it didn't feel like this
Cause I don't wanna miss this kiss
I don't wanna miss this kiss
It was like a story book. Only this one seemed like it ended with a sad ending. Her choosing the wrong guy. Her being depressed, miserable, regretting her choice.
You know you're just my type
And your eyes are lock and key, to my heart
Tempting my confession (my confession)
And you're a real hot thing
But you know I've got a boy somewhere
So can you feel the tension? (feel the tension)
And you, I'm dancing to where you are
And you're dancing to where I am
We're taking it way too far
But I don't want it to end
She touched her lips without realising it. She pulled away her fingers quickly, shaking her head.
This kiss is something I can't resist
Your lips are undeniable
This kiss is something I can't risk
Your heart is unreliable
Something so sentimental
You make so detrimental
And I wish it didn't feel like this
Cause I don't wanna miss this kiss
I don't wanna miss this kiss
There was something about his kiss, she thought, that made her want more. Maybe too much, she sighed guiltily.
But if you ask me to
I couldn't, I couldn't, I
You're leaning closer and
I shouldn't, I shouldn't, I
But if you ask me to
I couldn't, I couldn't, I
I shouldn't, I shouldn't
I don't wanna miss this kiss
Why? She didn't want to choose! Safety was always her first choice…but he was so amazing. The way his mouth fitted with hers. The way his body fitted with hers.
This kiss is something I can't resist
Your lips are undeniable
This kiss is something I can't risk
Your heart is unreliable
Something so sentimental
You make so detrimental
And I wish it didn't feel like this
Cause I don't wanna miss this kiss
I wish it didn't feel like this
I don't wanna miss this kiss
Crap. She punched her arm again. Crap. Her head met with the table. Crap. She kicked herself.
Crap. Her life was messed up. She had the perfect boyfriend and all she could think about was the playboy? The guy who broke everyone's heart? He hasn't broken mine, Misty thought smugly.
Crap! Why was he in her head again?
"Fuck you Ketchum." Misty growled.

"Hey Dawn. Hi May." Misty smiled as she arrived at the lunch table.
Dawn grinned back, pulling her hair into a high ponytail. May sat down, bubbling with excitement. She was, quite obviously, excited.
"I've got a date to the prom!" She cried, making jazz hands.
"Omg who?!" Dawn and Misty squealed in unison.
The three had planned their whole lives the moment they met. They had made instant friends in kindergarten, when the three of them all wanted to play with the same doll. From then, they made plans, where they would marry, where they would live, who they would marry. The three of them laughed over their 'plans' now that they were seventeen.
Sure, May had a date to the prom, they didn't yet, but they were delighted for their friend, remembering that once in middle school, they had despaired over the truth, whether any boy would like them.
"It's a secret!" May giggled.
"Ugh you can tell us!" Dawn pouted, her apple crumble forgotten.
"Yeah, we're your BFFs!" Misty joined in the fight.
"I don't even know either!" May sighed. "He wanted it to be a secret."
"What?!" Dawn cried, not quite believing her friend.
"Ok May, spill, otherwise that fruit yoghurt of yours is in your hair…" Misty threatened.
"Let me start from the beginning…"

"I can't believe May got a date to the prom…." Dawn wailed.
"I know right! I thought she was just gonna give up after what happened with Drew." Misty sighed, pulling on her blue jacket.
"And you're gonna get asked by Gary…" Dawn pouted miserably. "And I will just rot away sadly, not having a date to prom…"
"You can still go though!" Misty smiled, patting her friend on the back. "And you never know, the perfect boy is out there! And Gary might not ask me!"
"Eh hem. Gary WILL ask you. And I seriously doubt Prince Charming is out there." Dawn waved her hand at the boys in the classroom, either jumping around or shouting.
"Hmm. You're right. These boys suck." Misty sighed dramatically.
The two girls flopped onto the table, overreacting slightly.
Meanwhile, in the classroom next door, May was miserable too. And angry. How she hated maths! But it was even worse with her (ex)crush was sitting right there. Right next to her. And looking at her answers.
"Greenhead. Stop looking at my answers." She snapped, wedging her arm between them, so he couldn't see. He scowled.
"Get your fat arm off my table." He retorted. "And if you think anyone's going to ask you to prom with that bandana, then you're mistaken."
May was annoyed. Ticked off. Until she remembered some minor details. She took a deep breath. She smiled. Finally, she could take revenge!
"Actually I've already been asked." She smirked, moving her arm so she could pretend to faint. "And it was so romantic!"
She sighed dreamily, ticking Drew off slightly. So she had exaggerated with the truth. May pleaded with herself to forgive herself for stretching the truth.
"And who was stupid enough to do that?" He growled.
"Someone who doesn't want to be named." May scowled, scrawling another few answers on the sheet, slightly offended by Drew's words.
"Hmm. Sounds like a lie to me." He smirked, casually looking at her answers again.
"Ugh! You're so annoying! Wait till you see my date to the prom!" May hissed.
She flounced off to her next class, leaving Drew with an ugly scowl plastered on his face.

"Gary!" Misty squealed, running down the steps of the cabin.
"Hello darling. Now off we go." He hugged Misty quickly, before opening the door of his car.
"Where are we going?" She asked, her blue-green eyes sparkling.
"I know you like the water, so I've brought you to a water show." He replied.
Misty gasped, and wrapped her arms around his neck tightly.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Come on! Let's go in!" She cried, pulling on Gary's arm.

"How would you like to have some pets in our house?" Gary smiled, pointing to a nearby tank.
Misty grinned at how he said 'our'. Dawn and May were going to be so jealous! She swore her life was way too perfect. These things only happened in movies, right?
"Ooh! How about those two!" Misty stabbed her finger towards two fish swimming around.
One was white, with floaty fins and ruby red spots. It looked like it was wearing a dress, as it swam gracefully through the water, it's blue eyes staring ahead.
"That's pretty." Gary remarked, glancing at the price tag.
"I'll call it Goldee! With a double 'e'!" Misty smiled at her new pet.
The other one was a red fish, with almost a gold crown on its head. It had two long whiskers, reaching down to its bottom fins.
"This one is now christened 'Magik'." Misty giggled, her hand in Gary's.
Gary payed, and the two came out of the stall, holding two fish in a tank. Then they went into the next store, and Misty purchased two small plushes. One was a seahorse, and the other was a turtle. They were both small, and could fit into her hand. She looked over at the front of the shop longingly, at the huge seal plush. She didn't mind though, that Gary didn't buy it for her. It was quite expensive after all.
Misty sunk into her bed, the tank of fish was placed in the front hall, and the plushes on her bed. She was in a dream world, thinking about the past few days, how everything had gone so perfect. She was in such a daze, that she couldn't hear the argument her boyfriend was having in the next room.
She woke up the next day, to her phone ringing. She had set it to one of those loud and annoying ringtones. She couldn't be bothered to change it. Time was better spent on reality than technology, she told herself. Now she regretted it, as she rubbed her eyes wearily.
'Ash Ketchum (the idiot) is calling you'
She glared at the screen, and snuggled into her bed again, the ringtone blaring in her ears. She sighed, feeling slightly guilty. But things had to be done. The phone vibrated, did everything it could possibly do to get its master to notice it.
She ignored him.
Because things were going well for her.
Because she had a boyfriend.
Because she didn't want to remember the pain in her heart.

A/N: I hope this chapter was ok! The date was so romantic! Ok it wasn't, but I'd love a boyfriend who took me to buy plushes.
And yes, Goldee and Magik are references to Misty's Pokemon, Goldeen and Magikarp. Oh no, I can hear the reviews now. "How about Pikachu? How about Togepi? How about…(insert name here)?" Ugh. I have this planned, ok? Just leave the magic to me.
And that reminds me. Please review, follow and favourite. Just a few clicks, taps or whatever you need to do.
