Hi guys! Thanks for the review, Shippostail…and to everyone who put my fic in their favs, thank you so much! I'm really happy! I appreciate it all!

Here's my 2nd chapter, it's in the "present mode" since I told you guys that the last chapter was in the "flashback mode." I made it like that cause I wanted you guys to get the drift of this chapter. And in the summary there's something about a problem, right? Well, that comes later in the story…maybe in chapter 3? And oh…uhh…you'll also find out soon enough why the title to this fic's "I'll be there…I promise…" okay, enough with me talking…here's the chapter!

Chapter 2…

I was wondering…

A boy with silver hair and ruby red eyes sat behind a huge rock in his hometown. It was frankly peaceful…that was until he heard a door close from the house in front of the rock he was hiding behind. He stood up straight and took a quick look at who came out from the house…it was a girl with shoulder-length hair that were chestnut-brown in color and beautiful sapphire eyes. He blushed at the sight and took something from the grass. It was a bouquet of assorted flowers…

'Am I really going to do this?'

Brendan thought as he looked at the flowers that were now being crushed by his nervousness.

'what if…what if…'

he thought harder and harder as he sat behind the rock again.

'i…I can't do this…'

Brendan gave a deep breath and tried to relax. Then he felt somebody's presence around him…it seemed to startle him as the person tried to talk to him.

"Hey Brendan! What'cha doin'?"

there was the voice…her words melted in his ears…he felt himself blush slightly…he tried to look around. A girl with chestnut-brown hair and sapphire eyes was staring at him with a confused look plastered on her face.

"Brendan...what're you doing there?"

"Uhh…"

He said as he just gave the flowers to her without saying a word. She took them and sniffed them a bit. Then he blushed more as she looked at him.

"What's this for?"

"Uhh…I was just wondering…if you'd…"

"You'd what?"

May said finally catching on to Brendan.

"If you'd…you know…if you have the time…"

"time for what?"

"Time for…uh…I was wondering if…you'd like to…hang out with me…that is…if…if you have the time…"

"Like a…uhh…a date…?"

"Yes...no...yes...no...yes...no...uhh...YES...I mean...yes...yes...!!"

May blushed as she heard Brendan's statement. Brendan sat there again thinking deeply…

'what if…she doesn't feel the same way? If I just ruined our friendship? Aw man…I'm such an idiot…'

"I'd love to!"

May said happily…Brendan couldn't believe his ears.

"YOU WOULD?! THAT'S GREAT!!!"

Brendan said with a wide smile on his face. Then he realized how he answered May's approval…

"i…I mean…that's great!"

May just laughed at how Brendan acted.

"Uhh…where and what time?"

"What about the Slateport beach at around 3:00 in the afternoon?"

"Great. See ya there!!!"

May said as she left Brendan and skipped merrily back into her house. It was getting dark but Brendan was too lost in his happiness to stand up from his position. He lay back on the grass with a goofy smile on.

"she…said…YES!!!"

Brendan said almost as loud as an Exploud's battle cry. Then he decided to go home. He stood up and walked into his house…

Well, that's my chapter! Sorry if it's kinda short…I had a lot of fun writing this…I got some inspiration and ideas from my cousin who asked a girl out…heheh…

Well, hope you guys enjoyed reading this! Oh and please R&R!!!
