Chapter 1: Meeting an Old Friend
May was alone and on her way to the Crystal (I made this up!!) region for the contests. She just split up with Ash, Brook, and Max and is on her own when she bumps into a "charming" friend of hers…
"May, how nice of you to bump into me like that." a certain green haired, green eyed rival smirked.
"DREW? Is that really you?" May was so happy that she pounced on him and embraced him; as soon as she realized what she had done she blushed and stepped back.
"May, nice change." Drew said sarcastically even though he meant it, May's hair had grown longer and down instead of in two pigtails and pulled back by a purple bandana which she had turned into a headband, she was wearing a purple short sleeved dress that fell to her knees, black leggings that went all the way down to her purple sneakers. And around her hip was still a fanny pack only purple this time. She was also taller than the last time they saw each other.
"You look nice too, Drew." May replied blushing as she saw his hair was a bit longer and smoother; he was also wearing a black t-shirt with a purple vest, light blue jeans, a green backpack, and white sneakers. He was also a few inches taller than she was.
"So where are you going May?" Drew asked flicking his hair.
"I'm going to compete in contests in Crystal, I was going to the ferry before I bumped into you." May smiled at him.
"You're going to Crystal?" Drew smirked.
"Yes what's wrong with that?" May frowned slightly.
"Well it's just that in Crystal you need to compete in partnerships. Do you have a partner?" Drew smirked again and flicked his hair.
"Well no but do you have a partner?" She glared at Drew for making her good day twist to bad.
"Yes I do." Drew smirked again while staring at May.
"Who? Do I know this person?" May asked distressed that she was too late on asking Drew to be her partner.
"Yeah you know her, it's you." Drew said simply and started walking toward the ferry.
"Wait, WHAT? I'm your partner? You never even asked?" May said running toward him.
"I didn't think I needed to, seeing that you were desperate and you might need my talent to make it to the Grand Festival." Drew said as May caught up.
As soon as Drew finished May slapped the back of his head, "What was that for?" Drew asked as he was rubbing his head.
"That was for scaring me! I thought that if you already had a partner I wouldn't be able to enter the Grand Festival!" May glared at him but soon forgave him. "Wanna race to the ferry to see who's better at running?"
"We already know who's gonna win." Drew said smirking.
"Who??" May asked.
"Me." Drew flipped his hair.
"What! Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean that I can't win you!" May said as her head grew bigger and bigger and Drew smirked.
'That was a really stupid thing to say, Drew!' Drew's inner thought told him, 'Tell her that you'll accept her offer to race. You want to please her don't you?'
"No it's not that you're a girl that I know I can beat you, it's because you're May and I know I can beat you. But fine, whatever, I don't really care. On the count of 3," Drew said.
He and May got ready to run, "1," they both said together, "2," May smiled at Drew and then said, "3" and ran full speed toward the ferry.
The two got to the ferry at the same time, but May was already panting, Drew flashed a smirk at her, "What tired already?"
May took a deep breath and said indignantly, "No!"
Suddenly figure appeared behind May and attacked her.
"May!" Drew was slightly worried (but his face didn't show it) when suddenly May turned around and laughed.
"May? Are you okay? It's not every day that you get attacked but why are you laughing about it?" Drew asked raising his eyebrows.
"Drew don't worry about a thing! This is my friend, Jess Capier, he lives in my hometown, you know Petalburg City." May said smiling as she kissed Jess's cheek.
Jess wore a red t-shirt, black jeans, and white sneakers with a black backpack with a strap on one of his shoulders
Drew felt his jealousy rise as he saw her lips brushing the brown haired boy's cheek, "Are you okay Drew?" Jess asked.
"If it's about me kissing him on the cheek you have nothing to worry about, he's not only my friend…He's my cousin too!!" May grinned as Drew calmed down.
"I wasn't worried, why do you think I would me worried about some guy hugging you and then you kissing the guy on the cheek?" Drew smirked then flicked his hair.
"Wait a minute…" Jess scrunched up his chocolate brown eyes (very unlike May's sapphire eyes) and then looked like he recognized something…or someone, "Wait, are you Drew? You know the one famous guy coordinator that has a gigantic fan clubs all over the world and has girls waiting on your hands and feet?"
Drew nodded uncertainly, "That's cool that you have all those girls with you…If you have all those girls then why are you with May, my uncool cousin?" Jess asked smiling.
May stomped on Jess's foot.
"I mean my very, very awesome cousin." Jess said but winked at Drew as though saying that he didn't really mean that.
"Ignore my rude cousin! Jess, what are you doing going to Crystal region anyways?" May asked as she turned and stood by Drew.
"Well maybe you don't know May but I'm here because of the gyms." Jess said.
Drew smirked, "Do you have a partner?"
Jess's eyes widened, "You need a partner for the gym battles? I thought you only needed partners for contests."
"Chill out Jess. I'm sure we'll find a female companion for you soon enough." Drew said smirking and flipping his hair.
"Yeah Jess, we'll find you a girlfriend." May smiled.
"I don't need a girlfriend and who said I needed a female companion?" Jess asked blushing a bit.
"I think you'd rather be paired up with a girl than a guy." Drew said with a look that said trust me.
Suddenly another unexpected visitor attacked them except this time it was Drew getting attacked.
"Drew? Are you alright?" May asked uncertainly.
"Yes, I'm okay May. Kanyla! Get off me!" Drew smirked at May before getting up and speaking to the dark haired girl.
Her raven hair was long and would have fallen to her hips if she hadn't put it in a high ponytail. She wore a blue off-the-shoulder dress over a white tank top, her dress fell to her knees and underneath her dress was a pair of white leggings going to her mid-shin, she also had blue sneakers on and a black belt around her waist with Pokéball hanging from it.
"Sorry Drew, just excited to see you again after what? 2 or 3 years?" Kanyla asked as she kissed Drew on the cheek. "Hey, I'm Kanyla! I know this must seem weird, because you don't usually see people going around hugging random people. But anyways I'm Drew's ex-girlfriend."
May sweat dropped, "Um…..I didn't know Drew had a girlfriend…..It's nice to meet you I'm May, and this," She gestured to Jess who was now beside her and was facing Kanyla and Drew, "Is my cousin, Jess."
Drew's eyes just then lit up, "Kanyla, do you still gym battle?"
Kanyla nodded and smiled, "I still coordinate too, do you need a partner for coordinating?"
Drew shook his head then flicked his hair, "No, May's my partner for the contests but her cousin however is in desperate need of a partner for gym battling."
Kanyla flicked her long dark bangs behind her ear and looked at Jess.
"He didn't know that gym battlers needed a partner in Crystal." Drew explained slowly.
"Oh," Kanyla said quietly, then smiled at Jess, "Alright Jess, I'll gym battle with you, but you have to go to contests with me, okay?"
Jess nodded and Kanyla flipped her long ponytail behind her shoulder.
"So we'll see each other later, right?" Kanyla said smiling.
"Yeah, we definitely will." May said nodding.
Kanyla gave a quick wave and then rushed away.
Jess than said, "See you guys later." And walked into the crowd.
It was only Drew and May left in the corner and May was standing and staring out at the ocean while Drew was sitting and barely awake.
Suddenly there was a bump and May lost her balance and landed in Drew's lap, both Drew and May blushed.
"You should get more coordinated, you are after all a coordinator aren't you?" Drew was able to smirk and hide his blush.
"Oops! Sorry, I didn't mean to fall!" May tried standing but her legs grew weak and she sat down again on Drew's lap.
"Sorry again! I can't seem to get up!" May, for some strange and unknown reason to her, was feeling comfortable sitting on Drew's lap and Drew, for another strange reason, felt comfortable letting her sit on his lap.
"It's alright, May, I mean with your grace you couldn't stand up even if you really tried." Drew flipped his hair again.
"What do you mean if I tried?" May glared suspiciously at Drew.
"I mean it's obvious! You like me, just like all of my fan girls." Drew smirked.
May's mouth fell open, "Yeah it's just exactly how you like me like all of my fan guys like me!!"
Drew gaped a bit thinking that she had found out about him having a bit of feelings for him but then he realized that she was bluffing just like he was. "It's alright, it's not your fault I suppose that you have weak knees."
She was glaring at him when he picked her up bridal style and set her down sitting on the seat he just sat in.
"Thanks Drew…" She for once had nothing else to say.
"No problem May, seeing that you need that seat more than me." He was smirking again.
It was another hour before they landed in Ruby City. May scooted over so Drew could sit down again because for some strange reason there were benches on this ferry instead of normal seats.
May became overcome with sleep and fell asleep on Drew's shoulder, which made Drew blush ever so slightly.
--
When they arrived at Ruby City Drew gently shook May until she woke up and she found herself on Drew's shoulder and she blushed.
They found Jess and Kanyla at the Pokemon Center, "Hey lovebirds!" Kanyla and Jess smiled.
"We are not in LOVE!!" Drew and May grew as Kanyla and Jess stood there smirking.
"Well you guys need to get registered, Jess and I already did, and we have our I.D." Kanyla flashed a card out.
May looked at it, "That's a cute picture."
Kanyla smiled, "Thanks."
The two went up to Nurse Joy and she had already had her camera pulled out, "So you guys are doing contests correct?"
May tilted her head, "Correct, how'd you know?"
Nurse Joy gave a small laugh, "I always know these things, I have to, but you are May Maple and you're Drew Hayden correct?"
Drew and May nodded.
"Finally! I was wondering when you guys would be an official couple. Has anyone gotten any pictures of you yet?" Nurse Joy asked as she typed some things into her computer.
"What?" May asked her eyes nearly popping out of her face.
"You have to be a couple this year to enter the contests here." Nurse Joy explained patiently.
"Are you serious?" May asked.
"I'm not kidding." Nurse Joy said.
"Oh," May said quietly.
"So how do we get our I.D.'s?" Drew asked.
"Well first I'd like proof that you two are a couple." Nurse Joy said professionally.
"How do we prove that?" Drew asked.
"Well I take a picture of you two kissing on the lips, and then we'll take a normal picture of you two together." Nurse Joy said picking up her camera.
Before May could object, Drew had pulled her face towards his and their lips connected. A shock went through the two teen's bodies.
When they pulled away May turned away blushing a brilliant red and her fingertips laying on her lips. Drew smirked and then asked, "Did you get our picture?"
Nurse Joy nodded, "Yes, it was perfect. Now the normal one?"
May seemed to have recovered and Drew pulled her towards him, his arm around her shoulder and smirked and May smiled.
Nurse Joy took the picture and then she typed some things on the computer and then printed out the I.D. card, "Here you go."
Drew took the I.D. card and then Nurse Joy handed him a room key, "Here you go, have a nice day."
Kanyla and Jess were already gone and so Drew and May left to find their room.
Drew found it and opened the room up, the room was decorated red with hearts everywhere, "This is weird."
Drew got to his bed and took off his backpack, vest, and shoes and dropped them into the drawer next to his bed while May took off her shoes and took off her fanny pack and raced off to the bathroom to wash her face.
Jess and Kanyla were in their room laying on one of the beds and talking to each other about one another.
--
Later the group met up in the front of the Pokémon center.
Every room for some reason had a fully stocked closet with clothes for guys and girls. So everyone had changed into something decent to wear to go eating.
May was wearing a purple short sleeved dress that fell to her knees and purple flats, she had also readjusted the purple bandana so that it was a wider headband than before. Kanyla was wearing a blue halter top dress that fell to her knees as well, she wore blue heels that made her taller and she had let out her ponytail and her hair fell around her.
The guys wore a nice button down shirt (Drew wore a black one, Jess wore a red one) and clean jeans, and normal sneakers.
When they walked out they walked to a restaurant that Drew apparently knew about.
Drew had made reservations before so they were escorted to a table immediately.
"What would you girls like to eat? It's all on myself and Jess." Drew asked, as he nodded to Jess as a gesture of agreeing with him.
As soon as they were paid for it was Jess's turn to lead us somewhere.
"When do the girls get to do something?" May asked as she followed Jess.
"When they pay for dinner," Drew replied and then flicked his hair and Jess winked at Drew.
"Oh well I guess they'll always be in charge, May." Kanyla sighed playfully.
"That means that we'll have to order more food next time." May smirked at Drew.
Drew and Jess sweat dropped.
"Here we are!" Jess said proudly.
"Where exactly are we?" May asked
"We are on a rooftop!" Jess grinned.
"Yeah, a really dirty rooftop! Why are we here?" May asked more specifically.
"You'll see." Drew answered mysteriously.
Suddenly there were fireworks all over the sky.
"Oh my goodness! This is great but why are there fireworks?" Kanyla asked.
"It's celebrating the starting of the contests." Drew said.
"Tomorrow's there's a contest here in Ruby City isn't there?" May asked wanting to make sure.
"Yeah," Drew said and they watched the fireworks.
They got back to the Pokemon Center and Jess and Kanyla walked to their room and Drew and May went to theirs.
"I'm gonna go outside for a while." He threw her a rose and walked away.
As soon as he walked outside he felt a bit sad that he had left May. Little did he know that May was feeling a bit down too as she put the rose he had given her in a glass of water.
At the exact same time May and Drew thought the same thing except about each other!
Drew thinking, 'If only May knew...'
While May was thinking, 'If only Drew knew...'
Condawg1: Awww isn't that just sooooo cute?!
May: Can't believe out of all the people I have to kiss I have to kiss HIM!!
Drew: What's wrong with kissing me? You should feel honored that you get to kiss me! Me on the other hand had to kiss you!
May: Why would I feel honored?? And why wouldn't you feel at least good that you got to kiss me??
Condawg1: Don't worry you won't miss much... They're just going to be fighting. Until next time, see you!
