Chapter 11: The one I gave my heart to
"Dude, you have no clue what you're talking about."
"Well dude, I think I do."
"There's no way May or Dawn or... ape-girl would beat Misty is a Poke'Mon battle!"
"Her name is Iris. And she so would! She has a dragon type Poke'Mon. It would wipe the floor with Misty's water Poke'mon."
"Not-uh! Misty is a gym leader. That means her water Poke'Mon are strong enough to beat whatever those bitches dish out."
"Um...," Josh cleared his throat, interrupting the heated debate Gar was having with Jacob. "Who's Misty?"
Gar's eyebrow twitched and he gave Josh a flat look. "... What was that?"
Josh fiddled his fingers together and gulped. His gaze fell to the floor as he was too nervous to look Gar in the eye. "I was just wondering... who Misty is."
Jesse looked up from his Nintendo DS. "Yeah, I've never heard of her either."
There was a pause as Gar clenched his fist. Then...
"How could you not know who MISTY is? She was the first person to start traveling with Ash! He destroyed her bike! For God's sake she had a Togepi! A Togepi! What is wrong with you kids? This is valuable information you should know. It's more important than school!"
Raven glared at the green haired boy who stood in her room. "Don't tell them that."
"Why not? It's the truth."
Raven pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed, her annoyance growing. She was glad that Gar got along well with all of her brothers, really she was, but did they have to bond in her room? "Honestly, the stupidity level is growing," she pointed at her brothers. "You all need to go so I can get him-" Raven jabbed her thumb in Gar's direction. "-to do his homework."
"Did someone say homework?" James asked, poking his head in the room. He grinned at Gar. "I can help you. What is it? Math? Science?"
"English paper. Dante's Inferno," Gar answered, smiling as he approached James so they could bump fist.
"Piece of cake. C'mon, we can-"
"Gar, don't even think about it," Jack warned as he passed Raven's door, a drink in hand, as he made his way to the door that would take him to the attic. "James has his eye on some fancy watch from Macy's."
Gar looked confused. "So?"
"So he'll charge ya," Jack replied before disappearing, most likely to go sleep Raven mused as she shook her head.
Gar looked at James who was doing his best to appear innocent. Unfortunately for James, it wasn't working. "Dude, would you really charge me?"
"... It's a really nice watch."
Gar frowned and ventured back into Raven's room. "Yeah... Nevermind. I'll stick with Raven," he grinned at her. "Besides, she's like the smartest person I know."
Raven blushed at that and ducked her head so the others wouldn't see. However, that didn't stop Jacob from noticing. "Holy crap, are you turning red?" he pointed and laughed. "That's hilarious!"
Raven was quick to glare at him. "I did not turn red. Now get out of my room. All of you."
"No point in sticking around if I can't make a profit out of it," James muttered as he returned to his own room. Unfortunately, the other boys weren't as easy to get rid of.
"C'mon, Raven."
"No fair!"
"Ley us stay!"
"We'll be good."
