The second chapter is already here.
"Aww, my head." May said placing a hand on her forehead. She looked around where she was. "How did I get back at home?" She noticed that she had some bandages. She started to panic. "What happened?"
"O thank goodness, your awake." May turned around and saw her mother.
"What happened?" May asked with a shaky voice.
"You don't remember?"
May tried to remember what happened and succeeded. "I was attacked by Harley and his friends. And then they, they…touched me and." She looked up to her mother with tears in her eyes. "I don't know what happened afterwards, one of them had a knife and I fainted when I saw it." May was crying. "Mom, d-did t-they r-r-rape me?" She asked with a voice full of hurt and angst.
Caroline shook her head. "When you fainted someone rescued you."
"Thank god." May said with a relived voice. Caroline decided to tell her the details later, now she had to rest.
"Why don't you go upstairs and take a bath? It will make you feel much better."
May nodded and quickly headed for the bathroom. She noticed her mother already filled it up for her. She stuck a toe in the water to check the temperature. She found it good enough and disposed her clothes in to the laundry basket. Locked the door and took place in the bath.
"Mom is right" She mumbled to herself after a few minutes. "I do feel a lot better."
She brought her head halfway into the water. "How are Misty and Dawn going to react when I tell them about Harley and his friends? They would probably beat them up. Now that I think about it, who did beat them up? Who was my hero? Maybe Drew, he seems to have a crush on me. But he isn't brave enough to jump in. Paul, no he isn't the type to do it. Gary. Brock. Solidad. Does it matter who it was, I do need the thank him or her." May drifted to sleep.
May awoke. She felt like reborn, only a bit cold. Quickly she got out of the bath and dried herself of. With a towel on she headed for her room and got in some clean clothes. As she admired herself in her mirror she heard her stomach growling. Also she smelled that her mom was cooking. She headed downstairs to the kitchen.
"Just in time May, Dinner is ready." Caroline said to May. She took place at the table and started eating. "You know May, I met one of your classmates today."
May looked up surprised. She already knew about most of her class so meeting someone new was rare. "Who?"
"Ash Ketchum."
May was confused. "You met Lonely Ketchum."
"Lonely Ketchum?"
"That's his nickname. He has no friends, he hardly says anything and he always insults the teachers. When we have to be in pairs, he just waits for someone to be left. He is a mayor loser. It is social suicide to be seen with him. Get rid of him, that's what everyone thinks."
"MAY MAPLE, WATCH THAT LANGUEGE AND SHOW SOME RESPECT FOR THAT KID!" Caroline yelled. May was surprised by her sudden outburst.
"Chill out mom. What is he to you? I say a lot of bad things about my classmates." May said, a little scared of her mom.
"Well this particular classmate saved you from Harley." Caroline replied.
May was a little shocked by this. The Ash Ketchum, loner first class, Was her savoir. Why would he help her? She did more bad then good to him. She helped a few times with pulling pranks on him. And he knew she helped. May could tell that he holds no respect for her and still he gets in a fight for her. Why? And where is he now? She need to thank him.
Before May could ask something the door opened her Norman walked in.
"How is Ash?" Caroline asked.
Norman sat at the table. "He has multiple stabs and cuts. And the strain on his body from caring May towards here didn't do much good either. He isn't in critical condition but he needs his rest. He is staying in the hospital."
May was once again shocked. "He got hurt…while protecting me?" She managed to say. She could feel a few tears coming up.
"You better be thankful for this boy, invite him over. We have to invite over so we can thank him properly." May nodded slowly."And where is Max?"
"He is still upstairs. I totally forgot about him." Caroline stammered.
Dinner and the rest of the night went fast for May. She thought about Ash and why he did it. Was their a reason for him to do it? She checked all of the possibilities but non make sense. In bed she still thought about Ash and the introduction day.
Flashback.
"My name is Dawn Berlitz. I'm thirteen years old. My hobbies are making myself pretty and the normal girl stuff. I live with my mother since my parents are divorced." Said the blue haired girl sitting next to May. It was her long time friend Dawn.
"And the girl next to you?" said the teacher Ms Agatha. "Tell me your name, hobbies and family thing if you want."
"My name is May Maple, I am thirteen years old and my hobby is shopping. My father owns a few company's. I also have a little brother who annoys me to no end." May said with a smile. She got looks from all the boys in the class except two. She knew the purple haired boy, Paul as he is the ex boyfriend of Dawn. The black haired boy she don't know. Next was her other friend Misty. Then the cool looking Drew, Genius Gary, and Ritchie, Brock and as one of the last was the black haired boy.
"He is kind of cute." Dawn whispered. May wasn't surprised, she said that about a lot of boys but she was right most of the time.
"My name is Ash Ketchum. Fourteen years. I don't like people and my family is none of your business." That was all he said. The class gave him a weird look and it was decided that he is the one who gets to be the class loser.
"I take it back, he isn't cute." Dawn whispered again. May nodded.
End flashback.
"Why did he help me? He is always so distant." May yawned. "It has been an tiring day. Better get some sleep. Maybe I can visit him tomorrow." May laid her head on her pillow and drifted to sleep.
