Hi again everyone! Ehesister here for the exciting sequel to "Why Does Everything Have To Be So Complicated?" If you haven't read my profile, I'm writing this story earlier than planned for May Month! I hope you enjoy it!

Disclaimer: I don't own Pokémon!


Dear Brendan,

Guess what? Today was the 10th anniversary of us leaving home and following our dreams! It has been a long time since I have been in Littleroot. Ah Littleroot, where we first met…hmm maybe I should go visit, yeah! I did promise to come back when I became Top Coordinator or champion or both, hmm well…I'm still working on that. I can't wait to see everyone! My parents haven't seen me in ages! Maybe we can have a battle or you can tell about your studies! I bet it will be great! We haven't video chatted in a years, literally! I can't wait to see how much you grew from then!

As always:

According to me, May

It has been 10 years since I left Littleroot Town to follow my dreams to become Top Coordinator and champion. Brendan, my best friend, decided to stay behind to study to become a professor, like his father. We went separate paths, agreeing to video chat every day.

However, with Brendan living in the Hoenn region and me living in the Sinnoh region, it's hard to talk; especially with Brendan hardly has time to sleep. Instead I decided to write him letters weekly to tell him about what was going on in my life. He never replies to any of them so I sort of began to lose hope.

I kept writing letters but weeks turned into years, and no replied. I make a decision, and told myself this would be the last letter I sent him. Maybe he's not getting them or doesn't have enough time to read them?

After I send this letter with the mail, I'm personally going to Littleroot Town to visit my family and friends; it has been 10 years after all. Besides I sometimes won't admit it, but I had feelings for Brendan since the day we graduated from Petalburg's school. I didn't want to ruin our friendship, especially if he doesn't feel the same way, because who would want to be with me?

It was late at night when I finished the letter and I wanted to catch the next plane to Hoenn which leaves at 4:00 in the morning or in about 2 hours. I packed all my things into my bag and made sure all my Pokémon were fed and ready to go. I put everyone back into their Pokéballs and ran to the airport. I could have ridden Latias but it was late and I didn't want to exhaust her.

Luckily I made it just in time. I bought my tickets, got my luggage checked and put into the plane, and I calmly took my seat. At first I was looking out the window, thinking about how much Littleroot changed or how it stayed the same but eventually fatigue took its toll and I fell asleep.


"Attention all passengers, we will be arriving at Mauville City in a few minutes. Please make sure you have your entire luggage while leaving the plane. Thank you for choosing AirHoenn for your flight. We hope to see you again soon."

I wake up from my sleep and reach for my luggage, as I do so; I bump into another girl, around my age. Guess I'm still drowsy, I thought.

"Oh I'm so sorry, I didn't see you there." I say to the girl.

"Yeah well I think you need some glass- I mean no problem!" Replied the girl and ran off.

I guess she's having a bad day, oh well. Hmm now if I really think about it, her attire is…unique. She had long socks with sandal-like short boots with a black and red short-sleeve shirt with some grayish shorts. The thing that caught my attention the most was here red/black colored eyes and the fact that she wore her mega ring/bracelet wrapped around her leg instead of it being on her wrist, like mine is.

I stopped thinking about it and grabbed my bag from my seat. I made sure I had everything and I sent out Latias, which I caught on my first year on my journey, and climb on.

"Next stop, Littleroot Town!"

Brendan's Point of View:

It has been years since I had a good night's sleep but yesterday I finally did. I dreamt about me becoming a professor but somehow May was there, in the audience, supporting me, like she always did back when we were in school.

I have been too busy to video chat with May so I haven't seen her since the first year of our journeys. After that, I sort of disappeared out of her life. At least that's what I thought; May sent my letters each week, telling me what she did on her journey. I always wanted to write back but I couldn't.

I reach for the letter under my bed, it was from May and I got it 2 days ago. I haven't read it yet so I opened it. Once I read the last word I jumped out of bed and quickly took a shower, after that I got ready. I was about to go downstairs when I heard someone at the door, knocking. I quickly went to the door and opened it.

I couldn't believe my eyes.

It was May and she smiled at me before running up to me and hugging me. I return the hug and picked her up last second to spin her around. May has grown and matured since I last saw here. She was more beautiful than ever.

I took May inside my house and shown here around. May stopped to admire how well kept it was.

"Brendan, you sure have grown since I last saw you! Wow, you look incredible, you even gotten some muscles! Well done, I'm impressed!" May exclaimed.

"May, you don't look to bad yourself! If anything you look amazing! I guess this is what ten years do to you. Did you just get here?"

"Yes, and I'm beat!"

"Are you staying anywhere? If not, you stay at my house, I have an extra room. That way we can spend more time together, what do you say?"

"Really, wouldn't you mind?"

"Of course not, May! I haven't seen you in ages! It's the least I can do! Oh and by the way I received you letters. I wanted to reply but I wouldn't since I was extremely busy. I hope you can forgive me."

"Yes, you are forgiven! I understand Brendan, besides you offering your house to me makes up for it if you felt guilty."

"Thanks May, oh and you should rest. You had a long couple of days, right? That flight from Sinnoh must have tired you out completely. Don't worry I'll bring your bags up."

"Are you sure? Thank you so much! But, ugh I don't know how to say this but-"

"Let me guess, you're too tired to go upstairs on your own so you want me to carry you?"

May immediately blushes and says:

"W-well yes, that was completely right. If you don't want to or can't support my weight or-"

"May, you even said it yourself; I think my arms and legs and carry both you and your bag at the same time."

"Alright, you win, as always. Thanks."

I picked up May along with her bag and carried her up the stairs to her room. I place her in her bed and place her bag on the floor. Before I left to make breakfast I heard May say something:

"Thank you Brendan, for everything."

"You're welcome, May, anything for you."


A bit of a short chapter, I know and I'm sorry. Just in case you haven't noticed, this takes place ten years in the future or from the events of "Why Does Everything Have To Be So Complicated?" Also I wonder who that person May bumped into was...(she going to appear in future chapters if you're wondering.) Well it's late over here and I'm tired. Hmm hopefully I didn't miss anything. If I did, I'll just edit it tomorrow. Hopefully I'll see you guys next week, Ehesister out, peace!
