Ash and Pikachu woke up and began to look at the time and saw it was nearly afternoon, he got up and began to wash off and brush his teeth. Afterwards the boy went outside and saw a moving truck moving someone next door to him.

He saw a girl who had a red bandana, a red shirt, shorts, and she wore a pair of shoes that go with her outfit. They were finished putting her stuff away and Ash and Pikachu decided to go next door to meet her as he got a basket of fruit and flowers and walked outside towards her door.

He knocked on the door and was greeted by the girl.

"Hi, welcome to the neighborhood, my name is Ash, and I have these gifts for you." Ash said and gave her the flowers and the fruit. "Thank you, Ash my name is May it's a pleasure to meet you, would you like to come in?" Ash nodded his head up and down and May let him in and they sat on the chair.

As they began to chat Ash asked her "What made her come here to Pallet Town. " May's eyes began to water and Ash asked what was wrong. She began to tell him that this guy she used to date named Drew.

"The reason I came here was to run away from Drew, that guy used to be nice to me when we were friends, but when we began to date he became a person I wish I could never see again, he used to treat me like I was nothing and cheated on me, then he tried to ask me back and I said no, my parents told me to move to a place where we won't find me. He is currently in the Hoenn Region and this is the Kanto Region so he won't find me any time soon." May said while wiping tears from her eyes.

Ash gave her a hug and said "Everything is going to be ok because I am here to accompany you in your time of need and support. " As he looked in her eyes to reassure that everything will be ok.

"Pika Pikachu" Pikachu reassured her as well.

The young brunette hugged the boy and Pikachu and thanked them for being there for her.

Ash then asked another question to her.

"Did you do anything like being a Pokemon coordinator or Pokemon Master?" Ash asked.

"Yes, I did I used to be a coordinator, that's how I met Drew, and since I'm hiding from him I guess I can't be a coordinator." May said letting one last tear out.

Ash felt bad for the young coordinator and asked "Would you mind if I did contests for you? Ash asked while being concerned.

"No, Ash it's alright I don't want you to be stressed by it." May said looking at him with her sapphire eyes.

"I don't mind I don't plan on doing nothing for a while so why not." Ash replied.

May gave the boy a hug and said "Are you sure?"

Ash nodded his head up and down and the two watched television together.


Drew sighed while at a beach alone, he remembered the days when he and May used to go on dates at the beach and have a good time, but now he doesn't have May in his life, even though he wishes her back, he remembers the times they spent together and also the last words she said to him.

"I never wish to see you again Drew." May said leaving the boy lonely and regretful as he ran away and left her.

Drew tried his best to contact her, but no avail was given, he had messed up so many times that he thought he would never get May back. Drew decided to begin searching for May by asking his little brother (Little does Drew knows that Max knows what happened between him and May.)

Ash invited May to his house which was right next door to hers, she was amazed at how beautiful the house was on the inside the two grew as closer friends as the minutes went on by and Ash shown her his Pokemon which she was amazed by the variety of his Pokemon and saw a picture of him and all his Pokemon.

May decided to let her Pokemon out to play with his Pokemon and her Pokemon all went out there and began to play.


Drew went to Petalburg City to go to her brother, what he found out is he wasn't allowed at the gym because of how he treated May and he had to find other ways of finding her.

Ash and May spent the rest of the daytime together and became the bestest of friends May wanted to spend the night with her new best friend and Ash didn't mind that at all and the two went to sleep.

Before, May went to bed she questioned this (Am I falling in love with him? If so is he the one for me? I don't think I'll find this answer until much later, but I think I kind of finding feelings for the boy, he is willing to do stuff Drew wouldn't do, I hope this doesn't ruin the friendship we share.) Then the brunette fell asleep having happy dreams and knowing she will be ok, because Ash was there to help anytime she needed.


Drew stopped looking in Hoenn and he decided to take a boat to Johto to see if she is there, and then soon he will go to Kanto since the two regions are connected and it will save him a lot of time. So for the rest of the night Drew went to sleep and made his arrival to Johto sooner than expected.

Ash and Pikachu woke up and opened the door to the guest's room and saw May asleep, he decided to make breakfast for her as she sleeps and he did for himself as well.

As May got up she smelted something good and ran into the kitchen to find her breakfast which had a sign with a drawing of Glaceon, she thought it was cute and she began to eat her breakfast and remembered Drew never did nothing like this, and after she finished her breakfast, Ash decides they go to the park to get some fresh air and to spend time together outside rather than in the house.

The two got ready and began to go to the park together with Pikachu on Ash's shoulder.


Drew began to search around the whereabouts of May, he started going to the places where they held contests and saw that she wasn't there and then the bow let his Flygon rest as he searched through the first six towns which had gyms and no luck was given.

Ash and May arrived at the Park the two sat on a bench for a while and watch the scenery of all the Pokemon being natural in their natural habitats. As they went towards the swings, Ash put May on the swings and began to push her making her go higher and higher with each push.

Afterward, they bought ice cream for each other, Ash gave her a banana split and so did he get one as well. The two sat down and ate their Ice cream with Pikachu eating strawberry flavor ice cream in a bowl.

After that the two decided to go back home, and they watched TV for the rest of the day.


Drew looked all over Johto and couldn't find the one he seeks and he went to Kanto and stopped by a nearby hotel and went to rest there.

Ash and May began to grow tired watching TV and the two went to bed and May began to think about how Ash is so nice to her and how he treated her and she thought maybe he was the one. The two went to bed and had wonderful dreams and a goodnights rest.

That's the start of this fanfic and not to the end. Yet, we haven't seen Ash do a contest for May yet, how will it go, and will Drew finally meet the girl he missed so much, find out soon on New Neighbor.
