Title: Don't get any Sweeter
Pairing: Gary x Misty

Misty Waterflower, the beautiful, young red head, was preparing a batch of double-chocolate fudge brownies for the welcome-back of her old friend, Ash Ketchum. He was returning home to Pallet town to greet her and his mother. Of course, Mrs. Ketchum had no idea she was baking. Last time Misty was here, she attempted to bake a cake for Ash, but accidentally burned a corner of the kitchen down. Ever since then, Delia had banned her from the kitchen and its utensils. Permanently.

Second time's a charm. . . Misty's glossed lips smirked charitably as she tossed four eggs into the bowl of batter, proceeding to mix them.

"Hm, maybe I should have left the egg shells out. . ." she pondered, taking a lick of her creation. She felt a broken egg shell on her tongue.

"Maybe, huh?" a familiar, pompous voice taunted rhetorically over the red head's shoulder. "I'm no chief, but it is common knowledge to eliminate the shell, leaving only the yolk and all that slimy residue. Even Ashy Boy would've known that."

"Mm." Misty pursed her chocolate covered lips, feeling his hand snake around her petite waist. Reaching his fingers into the bowl. Misty slapped his hand away. "Maybe I wanted you all to choke on egg shells, never thought of that, hm?"

He let out a chuckle as he withdrew his hand, which was now partly coated in chocolate. "It crossed my mind, being the clever man I am." He replied dully, taking a lick of his chocolate-coated fingers. "Though, I never would think a sweet person like you would do such a terrible thing. At least on purpose."

The redhead turned around, seeing him eating the last remains of chocolate on his fingers. "You think I'm sweet huh?" She inquired with amusement. "Gary Oak, how would you out of all people know if I'm a sweet person?"

Gary's dark brown eyes eyed Misty's chocolate coated lips, seeing it slightly sparkle from what he figures to be lipgloss. Without hesitation, he moved forward, pressing his lips onto hers. Pulling away seconds later, Gary licked his lips.

"Because you taste like it."
