" Misty, we need to get out of here." Ash said as he grabbed her wrist.
" But the Tentacruel...."
" We need to save ourselves first! Come on!" He ran, and Wisty yelped as she turned and ran with him.
" La ta to, la to daaaaa." Wisty hummed as she threw flower petals everywhere.
Ash blew one off his face. " What's this about?" He mumbled as he rubbed his eye.
Misty yawned. " Yeah, what happened?"
Wisty grinned at them. " This is the day you two met each other a year ago!"
Ash raised a brow. " What does that have to do with anything?"
Wisty smirked. " Look at your hands."
They looked.... And gasped.
Ash was holding Misty's hand, their fingers intervened.
They both yelped and pulled away from one another.
Wisty rolled her eyes. " Stop acting like you don't like one another."
They both froze. " Wha- What makes you say that?" Ash asked nervously.
Wisty smirked. " Oh, let's see..... Holding hands, making sure the others safe, arguing you don't like one another, blushing.... It adds up."
Misty's eyes widened. " T- that's not true!"
Wisty threw her a photo album. " Consider it your gift for your one year Anniversary. Congratulations, Ash."
With that, she walked out the front door, Eevee trailing behind.
Ash and Misty causiously opened the journal with stickers on the cover, and peered at the first page.
Misty and Ash holding hands for the first time.
It was that day when the Tentacruel attacked. Misty wanted to stay to reason with the sea creature, but Ash pulled her away
Under it were the captions, " Ash and Misty holding hands."
Ash blushed. " When did she take this?"
Misty pointed to a picture of Ash being reeled in from Misty the day they met. Under were the captions, " love at first sight."
They turned the page.
Ash and Misty sat in stunned silence, staring at the album as they turned the pages. Each one seemed to reveal a moment they hadn't thought much about at the time, but now, under Wisty's teasing scrutiny, they started to see everything differently.
The next photo showed them asleep against a tree after a long day of traveling. Ash was sitting up, his head tilted down while Misty leaned against his shoulder, her head resting against his. Pikachu was curled up on Ash's lap, but it was the subtle way Ash's arm was wrapped around Misty that made them both blush.
