May's Crush

Chapter 11:Cerulean

May opened her eyes to see Ash and Pikachu still sleeping. The sunlight dimly lit the room. She sat up on the covers, something none of them got under. She looked down at the neatly folded stack of her clothes. She slowly crawled off the bed and collected a full change of clothes. May tip-toed into the bathroom and locked the door behind her.

"Ash," May called to him. Ash turned to see her dressed fully in his clothes. The baggy sweatshirt hid her figure well, and the pants were much too baggy for her to be walking in.

"May, why are you wearing my clothes?" he asked her.

She turned his hat around her head. She began to walk towards him, stepping out of his pants. She was wearing the pair of cotton panties that Ash had to fish out of the dryer the night before. As she walked, she swayed her hips seductively. "So Ash," she asked him, honey in her voice, "you wanna see what they feel like?"

Ash bolted awake, his heart pounding like a drum in his chest. His motion launched Pikachu off the bed onto the ground. The mouse Pokémon rolled across the ground. Pikachu was confused, being tossed across the room while enjoying his slumber. Ash looked around. The light in the bathroom was on and glowing from under the door. Ash slid off the bed and walked cautiously toward it. He timidly knocked on the door. "May?" he called to the other side. He heard the sound of the shower through the door.

"What is it, Ash?" a cheery voice came from behind the door.

"Nothing," Ash let out a sigh of relief. "I was just wondering where you were."

"Did you miss me already?" May laughed from the shower.

"Of course!" Ash talked as loudly and sarcastically as he could. "My life revolves," he continued to lay it on, accenting 'revolves', "around you, Pokémon Battles, and Pikachu!" The both had a good laugh about that. By this time, Pikachu had come to his senses, and was angry with Ash launching him. He stepped from around the bed and glowered at Ash. "Hey Pikachu, good morning," Ash greeted his Pokémon.

Sparks showered from his cheeks. "Pika pikapika, pika!" Pikachu shouted as he launched a Thundershock at Ash. The trainer screamed as the shock coursed his body. The shock lasted only briefly, but it scorched the clothes he was wearing.

"Ash!" May shouted from the bathroom. "Are you all right?"

"Yeah," he coughed, "But I'm gonna need the shower after you're done."

May opened the door and let Ash in. He carried a change of clothes in. May noticed how he smelt like someone had burned him. She knew who had burned him. She walked out into the room and sat in front of a mirror. May turned to Pikachu asked him why he had attacked his friend. The Electric-Type mimed the scene were Ash awoke, complete with the jerking motion he made when he awoke. He pointed to where he had landed on the hard ground. She stroked his fur for a moment, and then set him down. She told Pikachu he should apologize, and the Pokémon went and waited for Ash to be done showering. May turned her attention back to the mirror. She took a hair brush out of her pack and began to brush the tangles out of her hair. She smiled at the good-spirited girl smiling back at her from the mirror. After she got her hair just perfect, she reached to Ash's nearby pack and carefully placed his hat on her head. She winked at the mirror. I can't believe how cute I am! she giggled to herself. For some reason, today felt like it was going to be a good day. She couldn't quite put her finger on what made her feel so giddy. May didn't care what the reason was. She was determined to have a good day with Ash today. As she made another cute pose in the mirror, Ash walked in from the bathroom. "Hey, Ash!" she grinned. "Are you feeling better?"

Pikachu leapt onto his shoulder and stepped around to face Ash, "Pi pika, Pikapi."

"It's alright, Pikachu," Ash smiled at him, "I'd be grouchy if I was woke up like that, too." He turned to May. "Yeah, I'm alright," he told her.
