Misty has parked her bicycle near the cocktail bar. She took her towel with her and walked over to the shore. She's chosen to spend some time at the beach today, just in case it helps her get some inspiration.

She put the towel and sat down on it. Right when she placed the notebook on her lap, she saw in distance some fishing boats.

"Lovely." She started to sketch, a small smile on the face.

"MIIIISTYYYYYY!"

Misty looked up quickly. To her left and not too far, stood a very familiar tanned guy on a cliff. He waved at her with his arms.

"Ash?"

There was a guy with him, who had a lighter skin shade and stood a little taller. Both were in... their underwear? Misty flushed. 

What were those two doing up there? Could the people of this town get any crazier? 

"MIIISTYY! OVER HEEERE!" He wanted her to come? Oh God. Those town guys were crazy.

When Misty was debating about joining the two idiots or not, the taller guy rushed straight into the cliff and jumped. There was a loud splash heard all over the space as he dipped into the water.

Oh, they were jumping into the water in their underwear. 

How country.

"God, please don't make me regret this like last time." Misty didn't even know what she was doing anymore. She grabbed her towel and made her way through the big rocks so she could get to the cliff.

The wind was chilly up there and strong. Ash ran up to her as soon as she showed up.

"Hey, Misty! How's is going?"

"Uh, good." Please, can you get off? You're naked. Misty kept eyeing their clothes on the ground. They have put rocks on them so they wouldn't fly away. 

So country. 

"We're jumping off!" He pointed at the end of the cliff. "Have you ever done this before?"

"Do swimming pool counts?"

"Swimming pools? No. This is real stuff. You could break your bones if you jump the wrong way!" Ash chuckled.

Misty's eyes shot wide. "Why are you doing it if it's dangerous?"

"If it's not dangerous, it's not fun." Ash shrugged and walked over to the cliff. He looked down. "HEY GARY! YOU STILL ALIVE?"

Misty joined Ash's side. She glanced down as well. Wow. The water was pretty far. How did they even?

The brunette, Gary, was floating peacefully. He lifted his hand up for Ash.

"Good you didn't break bones then." Ash clapped his hands and adjusted his position on the end of the cliff. "My turn."

Misty's eyes were all over Ash's body. He was stocky; his belly bulged slightly over the waistband, he had a happy trail, his shoulders were broad and he had a good muscles definition. It must be all the work around his father's yards (and cliff jumping). He looked strong.

"Ash, wait!"

Ash turned around. He almost tripped as Misty quickly and hysterically started to take off her clothes. She was left with her black panties and red bra.

She was hysteric. She was panting like crazy and her face was red. "I want to jump too."

"Are—are you sure? It's d-"

"It's not fun if it's not dangerous."

She quickly stood by his side. 

Yes, a tanned hefty naked man and a naked skinny pale woman were both standing by each other's side, wearing nothing but their underwear.

"I'll..." Ash tried to focus on the water and ignore the skin Misty was showing. "I'll go first."

"ASH! JUMP IN ALREADY? YOU SCARED?" Gary was calling out form his spot. He wasn't sure he's seen right. Was a naked woman with big boobs standing near Ash or he was imagining?

Ash mumbled something under his breath and jumped off...

"Wh—WH—AAAAAAAAASH!" Misty shrieked loudly and dug her nails into Ash's body after she's felt herself jumping into the air. He's grabbed her quickly by the waist when he was about to jump and stuck her body to his.

SPLASH!

They got deep into the water and finally pulled away from each other. Ash and Misty quickly swam to the surface and started breathing again.

Gary was giving them a look. "What the..."

Misty panted loudly and brushed her wet bangs out of her face. Ash was doing the same.

"Gary... this is... Misty..."

Misty flashed a nervous smile through her heavy breathing. "... hi..."

Gary was still trying to believe his eyes.

"You were screaming." Ash tried to break off the awkwardness.

"You took me off guard! I wasn't ready!" Misty defended herself. "You said you were jumping first and I was next!"

"I knew you weren't going to jump after I do. You'll get too scared, so I thought I'd take you with me."

"Nice way to scare me off—and the water is really cold!" Misty's lips were slightly quivering.

"This is cold? You haven't seen cold yet."

"I'm just glad my bones didn't break."

"They won't break! It was just a joke!" Ash grinned and looked at Gary. This latter smirked, so Ash looked away from him. 

"Let's swim to the shore, shall we?" 

"Yeah—wow, Misty! I still hear your scream in my ear!"

"I'm sorry your ears were too close."

"You can always discuss this after we get to the shore, lovebirds."

"Hahaha, funny."

Misty didn't think it was funny. She was blushing.

"It's not funny! Why do people think this is funny?" Misty rumbled as she led her bicycle by her side with only a towel wrapped around her body.

Ash had his on his back and Gary had the towel on his shoulder "It's probably the kids again."

"They do that."

"They're brats."

"Well, at least they left the sketching book..." Misty eyed the item on her bicycle basket.

They have swan to the shore and got to the cliff again but their clothes weren't there. Ash and Gary weren't very mad but Misty was flaring. Thank God she's brought her towel with her—and thank God those kids didn't steal the towels.

"What's with stealing in this town?"

"You snooze, you lose."

People around town were giving her really ugly looks. Was it because she was half naked? Probably.

Misty groaned. "I can't get to Viridian wearing a towel that can barely hide anything!"

"It's fine. We told you Gary's fiancée is going to give you something to wear."

"Not that we mind you staying naked for a longer time."

Misty stopped in her tracks. She glared at the two.

Ash pointed at Gary. "It was him who said it, not me!"

"I'm going to pretend I didn't hear anything, alright? Alright." Misty started walking again.

Gary grinned at his friend and caught up with the redhead.

"Guys! Wait!" Ash chuckled to himself and caught up with them.
