My Memories of You…
Chapter 2
"Hi there Misty. What are you doing here?" May asked as she looked up at the orange headed girl.
"Nothing much. Seems like your thinking about 'him' again eh?" Misty asked.
"I don't really know. I guess. I seriously don't think he is going to come back again. It's been almost a year and I think he forgot about me." She answered.
"Don't be like that May. He'll come back, a guy would be so lucky to have someone like you that cares about that guy so much that it is far more then regular love. Nobody can find that kind of person that easily." Misty said trying to make her friend feel better.
"Thanks Misty. You helped a lot. I think I will keep on waiting. Maybe one day he'll come back and smile at me." May replied while looking at the ground. They said their farewells and Misty walked away. May thought to herself a lot that day. What she didn't know was that her conscious was speaking to her as well. 'May, Calm down. He'll come back.' She started talking to herself at the pond at the park. "I don't think he will. If Drew loved me then he would be back by now. I think, I hurt Drew somehow… That's why he left. Sometimes I really do think that. But that day I met him I felt so strong for him that I couldn't believe that, that feeling even existed. "
She suddenly remembered the time they met.
Flashback
The day was young and she was playing her friends from school. They were walking to an ice-cream parlor. They bought their ice cream and said their goodbyes. May was skipping to the park while eating her ice cream. Until she bumped into someone, and the ice cream cone landed on her face. The green haired boy who she had bumped into was shocked and started to clean her face. He apologized.
"I'm Sorry. I didn't see you on the sidewalk there. I'm really sorry. Are you ok?" the green haired boy asked.
"Oh I'm just fine. Thank you for cleaning up my face." She replied to the boy.
"I'm really sorry about you wasting your ice cream too. How about this I'll go take you to my favorite ice cream parlor that has the best ice cream and I'll treat you." the green haired boy said smiling.
"Ok. If I won't bother you then I would love to come. My name is May by the way. Who might you be?" She asked awhile walking with the boy.
"I'm a person that nobody would want to be with in the future. But my name is Drew. Nice to meet you."
"A person that nobody wants to be with in the future?" She asked with curiosity.
"Oh that's nothing. I guess I was getting carried away with myself. Nothing to think about. Oh Here we are the ice cream parlor that serves delicious ice cream that you'll crave for when your not in this city." He said while changing the subject.
"Two Vanilla's please." He said to the employee.
'Wow. Drew seems really nice. He seems like the type that I would totally be friends with' May thought to herself.
"Here you go. A token of my apologies." He said to the brown headed girl.
"Thanks!" May took a bite from the ice cream and answered. "Your right, this ice cream really is good. So do you live in the city?"
"Well I'm a type of person that loves to travel. I'm staying for awhile but I might just live here because this place is wonderful." He replied with a smile.
"Is that so." May said before her face got slammed into the ice cream cone by her friend.
"Hey!! Not nice. I was really enjoying that ice cream!" May looked behind her to see her best friend, Misty. "Eh? Oh hi Misty. What are you doing here?"
"Heh. Sorry about that May. I was just so happy to see you here." She said happily to May, then looking over to the green haired boy. "Eh Who do we have here? Who is this May?"
"Name is Drew. Your Misty from the Cerulean Gym right?"
"Yep! That's me the one and only. Drew hmmmm… Sounds familiar. You're the Contest coordinator dude?" Misty asked Drew.
"Yeah that's me." He answered.
"Wow both of you guys seem to be really knowing of eachother. I shouldn't spoil the moment by being here." May said while standing up and walking away from the table she was sitting at.
"May! Don't leave! There's nothing between us! I just saw this guy on T.V. and since I watch the contests I'm a complete fan I guess." Misty cried out.
"I'll talk to you on the phone Misty. I'm not mad I just remembered I have errands to do for my mom! She'll be mad if I don't get them finished!" She said while laughing.
"Ok. Bye May. Bye Drew." Misty walked out of the store.
"May, You have to do errands?" Drew asked after the scene that happened.
"Yeah kind of. A lot of errands actually." She asked with a look on her face from the thought of her mom killing her if she didn't get these done.
"If you need help, I can help you. Two people is better then one right?" He asked.
"Definitely! Let's get started!" She said with a look on her face that a new friendship has been created.
2 weeks has passed since that meeting.
"May… How do you feel about me?" Drew asked while looking at the moonlight that reflected on the lake.
"Drew… These past weeks I've been thinking about those feelings. Those feelings that I won't ever forget." She answered and looking at the eyes of the green haired boy.
"Good. That is what I thought those feelings would be like." After Drew said that he leaned in and kissed her and whispered something in her ear. "I don't ever want to let you go, Your mine and only mine."
End of Flashback
'Oh Drew… Those times were so great. Why did you have to leave…' She sat there looking at the fish swim in the pond with lily pads that were so filled with pink that it made a couple blush that same color. ' I don't know what to do without you. Each day I pray for you to come back. My dreams of you make my heart ache for you even more. When will you ever come back? I guess my desire for you is too much.' She thought to herself and moments later crying. She was alone, with no one to hold and care for.
She finally remembered the note that Max gave her that morning. She took it out of her pocket and began to clear up her tears and read.
May,
I went out to do some errands so I would like to tell you that someone has called for you this morning. You were asleep so I didn't want to wake you up. They told me to tell you that they're sorry for what happened last year. Then they hung up. It sounded like a boy but I wasn't so sure since I was listening to the radio. Love you honey, remember don't let your brother watch T.V. that much while I'm gone. I'll be back soon.
-Mom
May didn't know what to say. She was completely buried in thoughts. Why were they sorry? What happened last year? May was confused and decided to walk back home. Her mother arrived home before she did and they decided to talk about it.
"Oh May honey, that person on the phone this morning was really awkward." Her mother said to her when they all sat down for dinner.
"Oh was it really? I don't think I'm hungry tonight mom. I'm going to go to my room."
"Alright, May."
May ran up to her room and then began to think about the phone call her mother received. She decided to go on her computer and look at pictures. May looked at all the pictures she had tooken with her friends. There was Ash, Brock, Misty, Drew, and even people she met on the way on her journey in the past. She started to cry when she saw a picture of Drew and herself at the Legendary Sakura tree asleep on each others shoulders, sleeping peacefully. She stuck a wish on the Sakura tree when Drew wasn't looking. Her wish was for them to be happy and always be together. Later did she know that, her wish was never granted.
May put her head on her desk and dozed off with the computer screen on. The picture was on her desk also, in a frame that meant the most to her. A light flicked on her E-mail button. The email was never opened that night. The sender of the email was thinking of May and decided to check up on her.
Hey May,
How are you doing? It's been a year, not seeing your face makes my heart ache.
Roses are graceful,
But they are most graceful in the May.
Where they can bloom with the most gorgeous petals.
Whenever I see one, my heart calls out your name.
That night where we separated, was a regretful one.
I let you go, and my heart told me to come back.
My heart never wanted to let you go, but my mind told me it was for the best.
That night, I didn't want to leave but it was the right thing to do.
Roses are gorgeous,
But in the May they are the most graceful and they dance in the sun most
gorgeously then any other month of the year.
-From the person who made you cry all alone in the night.
The e-mail blinked. It was never opened that night and May never got to read that email from the person who's heart aches for her most that one night.
