Part Four!

Goh POV

SEVERAL DAYS LATER

I felt much better after the poison was out of my system- but I noticed Ash was starting to look bad.

NOT IN THE BAD WAY- Well, yes, in a bad way- BUT NOT IN THE LIKE, YOU-LOOK-BAD AS A PERSON BAD.

BAD IN HEALTH, THAT'S WHAT I MEANT.

He coughed a lot, and sneezed a ton too. For a while I thought he had what I'd had, but Pokemon poisoning isn't really contagious.

Then I remembered, the day before he'd fallen asleep on the floor- he'd played and looked for Pokemon in the cold rain.

I didn't join him- even though it was perfect conditions to encounter Zapdos- I didn't want to get wet.

He had come back in soaked and shivering. I wouldn't be surprised if that was what finally caught up with him and made him sick.

Speaking of Ash, he was sitting beside me, looking awfully sweet. It didn't matter if he was wearing half of the little cream cake he was eating on his face- it was adorable for him anyway. I rubbed my thumb over it, getting it off his face.

He hardly noticed, the way he was downing those things like they were small- which they weren't. They were huge, about the size of my palm, and he was eating them like they were the size of chips.

Pikachu was eating them just as fast.

I smiled at him. He had cream on his nose again.

After Ash had finished THE WHOLE BAG, he stood up. He looked dazed, like he'd been hit with Confusion or some other move that rendered the victim confused. I didn't know battles very well, Ash was the battle kind of person.

'Oh, you stole my cash? BATTLE ME!' and 'Oh, you want to take over the world and kill the champion, that's nice. NOW BATTLE ME!'

That kind of thing.

Ash still had cream on his nose, so I stood with him and grabbed a napkin. "Wha-?"

I cut him off by rubbing the napkin over his nose with a light laugh.

He blinked when I took it back. Several times actually.

I stepped back, and he took a deep breath.

And sneezed.

Hard.

He held his palm to his head for a moment with a groan. "Don't you hate when you have the biggest sneeze, and afterward it comes with the BIGGEST HEADACHE- and it makes your head feel all KABLAM and KABOOM?"
I nodded- doing my best to refrain from laughing. IT'S NOT FUNNY GOH IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW CUTE HE IS HE'S IN PAIN QUIT LAUGHING. Ash sat back down, and rested his head on the metal of the table we had been sitting at.

"Aughhhhhhh... My head." Ash held both hands to the sides of his head, with a mutter of pain.

"Do you want me to ask Professor Cerise if he has anything for a headache?" I asked, rubbing his back.
He didn't answer. "I'll be right back." I said, stealing his hat and putting it on my head backwards.

"Hey!" He said.

But I was already gone.

ASH POV

****

Aw man, he stole my hat! He is doing something nice though, getting me medicine, so I'll let it slide this once. I like my hat.

When he returned, I had my head down again. I mean, MY HEAD REALLY HURT. I don't know why it did, but it did, and it did a lot.

He handed me a small cup of water, and a pill. I ignored it and kept my head down. Goh tapped me, and I lifted my head. I must have looked like the dead, because he gasped, and said, "Take the medicine, I'm getting Professor Cerise." And he did just that.
