Young Love

May is sitting outside the contest hall in Mahogany Town. She had just suffered another loss, this time from Harley. She heard footsteps approaching her, but she didn't need to look up to know who it was.

"You lost, again? With only five ribbons you won't be able to enter the Grand Festival, you know that right?" May's gaze returned to the ground. This was a topic she really didn't want to think about at the time.

"Yeah, I lost...and I already knew that..." May let out a depressed sigh, believing that she wouldn't be able to enter Johto's Grand Festival.

"I wonder why Johto has a higher requirement than the other two regions. In both Kanto and Hoenn it was only five, but here it's six." Drew sat down next to May, but she didn't pay any attention to him.

"Did you ever consider the fact that Johto has a contest hall in every city, May? It only makes sense, really. With ten cities, that is a lot of ribbons. So having six as the requirement proves you beat over half of them."

"Yeah, but Kanto only has six contest halls-"

"No, Kanto has eight. You just didn't go to all the cities that had them." Drew chuckled at May's mistake.

"Just leave me alone, okay? It's bad enough that I can't go in the Grand Festival because I didn't get enough ribbons. By making fun of me you aren't making it any better. So just go away!" Though he was slightly surprised by her outburst, Drew shook his head.

"Don't count on it. Besides, I have something else to tell you." May let out a groan, obviously annoyed.

"If it's another insult, keep it to yourself. Just look at me, Drew! Can't you see I'm miserable enough?" May turned to look at him, and Drew instantly felt a wave of guilt rush through his body. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying, and her cheeks were stained with tears. After the initial shock of her current state, Drew was able to say something, but he had to avert his gaze from hers first.

"No, I wanted to tell you I got you something."

"Drew, really, I know you like me, but those roses are getting old. You've been giving them to me since Hoenn!" Drew chuckled again, but he blushed when she mentioned his interest in her, as that was something he'd rather discuss in private.

"No, it's not a rose. It's something that I think will cheer you up. But since you obviously don't want it..." Drew stood up, and took a few steps forward before he felt May grab his arm. He turned to look at her, and saw she was now standing next to him, the curiosity shining in her eyes.

"What do you mean? I just thought it was a rose because you give them to me every time we meet up. How was I supposed to know it was something else? Please tell me what-" May was cut off by Drew pressing his lips against hers. While she was too shocked to react, Drew put a small box into her open hand. As soon as she got a grip on it, he cut off the kiss.

"Did...you...just...what?" May still hadn't recovered from the shock.

"I had to do something to shut you up. And it made a perfect opportunity to give you that as a bonus. With that I think you'll change your thoughts from before, too." Drew gave her a smirk before walking off.

"Wait, what do you mean 'my thoughts from before'? Come back!" Drew didn't listen, though, and continued on his way.

"I wonder what's in this little box...only one way to find out, I guess." May pulled off the top half, and the air in her lungs escaped. Tears began to form in her eyes, but this time, they were tears of happiness. Because the object that Drew had given her was...

"It's the Olivine ribbon. I...I can't believe he did this for me..." May held the ribbon close to her heart, as it now held a high amount of sentimental value to her.

And now it's time for the intermission!

I planned on making it as flame-worthy as possible, but I think I failed...damn. Maybe I should have had everything in bold and all the dialogue together, or better yet, copy the plot of another story! Yes, I'm referring to all you douche-bags that actually write stories like that.

Maybe I should make the Pokéshipping section like that...heh. I hate both Ash and Misty, so don't be surprised if their chapter is identical to all those other shit AAML fics.

Also, this was extremely short, but at least the Author note wasn't more than half the damn story...oohh, I should use that too. Yeah, that's how much I despise Ash and Misty; especially together...there are just too many damned Pokéshipping fics...

As it seems, I need some ideas on other ships that you'd like to see bashed. This DAML was supposed to be much worse than it turned out, but it's still pretty bad. Any way, just pop up any ship that doesn't involve any characters that have already been used and I'll see what I can do! I hope to piss off as many people as possible with this, but we'll see, now won't we? Though I think some people might actually like this first chapter. But I swear, if I get any reviews that look like this;

"Liek, ur stori iz so kewl! U shuld tottallly make a sekwel!!1!1! (insert ship here) 4 EVAR!!!1!11!!!"

I will re-write that entire section to make it even worse than it already is. I'm trying to piss people off, not get praised. So give me flames, damn you! I bet you've never heard someone requesting flames, heh.
