"Whoa. Misty, you're kidding, right?"
That was what May said when I told her about you. We were at her engagement party, and I couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy. She just looked so..happy, while I was dampening everyone's spirits with my own petty drama. I didn't want to say any more. Knowing her, she would probably worry and end up not enjoying the night. I needed an excuse, one that would distract her. Preferably for the rest of the party.
My rescue came in the form of her fiancé – her former rival, Drew. He hugged her from behind and asked her to dance. The look she flashed at me was long-suffering, but I let her go. I didn't want company. I wanted to think, to wallow… and to reminisce.
I started, seeing you sit down beside me. I hadn't known you were here, although I knew you had been invited. You had changed, I noticed. You looked stressed. Your once-sparkling blue eyes were tired and weary, your easy grin replaced with a grim line. That wasn't the only thing. You were alone. Dawn wasn't here with you. And I almost wanted her to be…because I knew – I knew – that she was the only one who could make you smile the way you used to.
Ash and the gang immediately surrounded you, and I nearly collapsed in relief. I didn't want to make fake, awkward conversation with you. Because I knew your thoughts would always be centered on her. Even though she left you, even though she treated you like crap, even though she was gone from your life, you would still think about her…even when you were talking to me. And I knew I wouldn't be able to stand that.
I watched you laugh with your friends. The sparkle in your eyes had been revived – it was dim, but it was there. Warmth flooded me, overwhelming, almost suffocating… I had kept it at bay long enough. I sighed, a bittersweet smile curling my lips. You just had to come back, didn't you? I thought I'd finally moved on. I thought I'd finally forgotten about you. I thought I could finally give someone else another chance.
But you were like chains, binding me, restricting me...never letting me go. It was almost funny. Because although I'd known, although I'd suspected, I'd never really admitted it until now: There was never going to be anyone else. Many had tried – and many more would – but none would succeed. I would always end up comparing him to you: your piercing blue eyes, your oh-so-casually disarrayed cinnamon spikes, your smug smirk… None of them could ever compare. You were, after all, Gary Oak.
You had me trapped, and all I knew was that no matter how hard I tried to break free… I would always end up coming back to you.
Because...because...I was still in love with you.

Decisions
"You know, Ash," Misty stated with an uninterested smile, "you don't have to train so hard all the time. Take a break!" She had been watching Ash and Pikachu practicing some attacks for almost an hour while waiting for Brock to make lunch.
"I can't!" Ash replied excitedly. "We're only two days away from reaching my next gym battle and we need to be ready! Right, Pikachu?" Pikachu just looked at Ash and, between taking deep breaths, mumbled a stubborn, "Chuuu
"
Misty stood up in a huff. "Well it's fine with me if you two want to work yourselves to exhaustion! I'm getting some lunch." And with that she stormed off through the woods in th

Enough
Misty and Ash glared at each other in silence after a rather fretful storm - also known as one of their daily arguments - looking as if they were ready to physically attack each other. Only this time was different, at least it seemed so. A terribly tense atmosphere was surrounding them, engulfing both in a prisoner state.
Misty was a mess. What was once a beautiful baby blue, one-shoulder cocktail dress was now tainted with red wine; her perfectly combed hair, tied to the side with little curls cascading down and cupping her cheek, was ruined to say the least; and so was her make-up - black trails of mascara were down on her wet cheeks as m

WHAT!!!!!!!! Misty jumped back.
Hehheh I was right! I do remember you from kindergarten. Ash looked at her with his brown eyes smiling. Misty started to blush.
Just because you were my kindergarten crush doesnt mean you still are! Misty lied.
Then how come you are still blushing Reddy
Misty blushed deeper and looked at her watch. Just then the teacher woke up and said detention was over. Misty ran out and ran to her locker. Following her was Dawn and May.
Ahh, I cant believe that was my kindergarten crush!!
Misty, its ok! Dawn comforted her. May nodde

edit (o6/14/1o): I think..for now. I've decided to keep this as a oneshot. I seem to have lost my muse for this and I'd rather keep it this way, instead of putting up a low-quality Chapter Two.
I'm so sorry to all those who were looking forward to the second chapter. Forgive meeee...
This is in Misty's POV, just in case it isn't clear
The back story of this one-shot goes like this:
Misty and Gary were an item a few years ago, but they broke up when he left for Sinnoh again. Since then, Misty has been convincing herself to get over him and denying to herself that she still loved him.
Gary, on the other hand, had gotten together with Dawn until she broke up with him.
(Sorry for using Dawn, but I don't like her.)
I'm not really sure about how this turned out.
It was kind of a half-assed, "spur-of-the-moment" kind of thing. Not to mention that this is my first Egoshipping-ish fic
This was originally supposed to be a portion of my upcoming drabble-fic, "Countdown," but after a bit of thought and some brainstorming with my besties, I decided to scrap it and re-do that part.
Seemed like a waste to just erase it all so...yeaaah
Comment please! I'd like to know how I did
