Your Song (AAML One-Shot Valentine’s Day Special) Rated: U

A/N: Inspired by the song ‘Your Song’ by Elton John

14th February, Valentine’s Day, 7pm

A young teenage girl was sitting alone in her room, checking her e-mails on her computer. She received a lot of fan mails sent to her by boys wishing her a happy valentine’s. She was wearing a yellow vest over her red sleeveless t-shirt and yellow tight shorts. She was the leader of the Cerulean City Gym, Misty Waterflower.

She wished that she could celebrate with someone special that day. That special someone was a young teen who travelled with her since day one of his pokemon journey. At first, she followed him because of the bike he broke when he borrowed it from her but after years of travelling they grew a great bond of friendship… maybe a greater bond than that.

It was until that day when she was told that she would have go back to Cerulean city to protect the gym while her sisters go on holiday, much to the sadness and dismay of her and her friends. To this day, she still protects the gym while her sisters retired to become actress models and her friends are in a different region.

After she checked out all of her e-mails, she was about turn off her computer when suddenly a message appeared on the screen. “You have new mail,” it said.

She checked to see who sent it and it turned out to be the young teen she spent five years of travelling with… Ash Ketchum. Happy, surprised and curious, she clicked on the new mail and read the following message…

Hi Misty,

Turn on your radio and tune into Cerulean Radio Show Live 55.5. Hope things are going well and I hope to see you soon.

Love,

Ash
She smiled a small smile when she read the word ‘love’ on the computer. “Ash…” she mumbled. She wondered why Ash didn’t wish her happy valentine’s as she switched her radio on, curious of why Ash wanted her to do this.

After some tuning, she came across the radio show. It played some romantic and emotional songs that Misty liked a lot since she liked anything romantic. In her mind, she found that Ash can be quite dense when it comes to love and romance.

“Hey, hey, Dr. Lurve is in the house,” the radio DJ said in a deep and flirty tone. “You’re listening to the Dr. Lurve’s Love Show, the place where you can celebrate your love every night. Now, it’s time do some requests. I have an e-mail message from this one guy, Ash and he’s got a message for you, Misty.”

Misty’s eyes widened with shock when she heard those names on the radio – herself, and her best friend.

“Ash says happy Valentine’s and that he misses you a lot, as does Pikachu,” Dr. Lurve continued. “He has gathered a couple of Battle Symbols from the Battle Frontier. May is doing well in her contests, Max helps out a lot and Brock…”

He paused awkwardly for a while and finally said. “He’s doing okay. Ash hopes that things are going well at the gym and he hopes to see you soon.

“Last but not least, he requested me to play this song to you as your Valentine’s Day present. It may not be much, but we’ll make this ‘Your Song’, which is sung by Elton John. Once again, happy Valentine’s Day, Misty. Enjoy.”

The music started playing; soon the famous singer started singing the following lyrics while Misty listened intently…

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

After the song ended, she couldn’t help but blush after listening to the whole thing, thinking how beautiful and romantic the song was. She immediately typed in a message via e-mail to send to Ash, along with a little something…


A couple of hours later on the same day at the Battle Frontier, Ash, who was wearing a blue sleeveless jumper over his black t-shirt, thick blue trousers and a pair of black and blue trainer, was checking on his e-mails sent by friends and relatives. He soon came across one of them that was sent by Misty and read the following message.

Hi Ash,

I listened to that Valentine’s Day present you gave me and I loved it. Thanks. Everything’s going great at the gym, my sisters are doing in their careers and Tracey sometimes visits us to help out… I wonder if there’s something going on between him and Daisy.

Hope things are going well for you guys and I hope to hear from you. See ya.

Love,

Misty.

PS: I’ve sent you a little something. Happy Valentine’s.

Below the message showed a photo of Misty in her blue bikini floating on the surface of the pool with Azurill floating on her ball-like tail and Psyduck using his swimming tube to float since he can’t swim. Ash mainly focused on Misty, showing a little smile and blush on his face. “Thanks, Mist,” he said. “You sure look cute there.”


END! Happy Valentine’s, people!
