Me: Hola! I'm glad you all liked my last chapter.
?: I didn't!
Me: Drew, what more do you want?
Drew: I said nothing!
May: I did. Why am I failing Maths?
Me: Because… look it's important you are. Besides… You're an A+ student for everything else.
May: Yay!
Drew: May… it's pretend!
Me: Anyway… I don't own Pokemon… would you believe me if I said I did?
May: …
Drew: …
Me: (sigh) I didn't think so.
Chapter 2
The Lonely Prince
Drew entered his 11th floor apartment. He put his key back in his bag and put it behind the door. He was alone. He always was. He never knew his Dad. He died before Drew was even born. His Mom died last year. She had Cancer. Drew heard the sound of raindrops hitting on the window. He sighed. He turned on his electric fire and grabbed the book he was reading last night, 'An Academics Guide to Medical Study'. He curled up on his armchair and began to read.
This section of the book covers 10 types of Cancer. They are: Cancer (esophagus), Cancer NSF, C- There was a knock on the door. Drew answered it and there stood a wet Ash and a hot Pizza."It's raining!" Ash pointed out.
"I can see that. I have a window," Drew said.
"Hey! I come bearing a peace offering!" Ash said, showing him the Cheese and Tomato Pizza.
Drew let him in. Ash set the Pizza on the table and head over to the armchair Drew was just sitting on. He started to read the book on the armrest. He sighed.
"Drew… you can't keep torturing yourself," Ash said, worried.
"I'm not. It's just where I got up to last night. You on the other hand, are. What did you say to me this morning?" Drew asked, biting into the pizza
"That I think my Chemistry Teacher fancies my Mom," As said, also eating the pizza.
"Then?"
"That I think he might ask her out at tomorrows Parents Evening."
"Then?"
Ash thought for a minute and then blushed a brilliant scarlet.
"Uhhh… that I'd ask Misty out today…" Ash muttered.
"Yeah… how did that go for you?" Drew smirked.
"Umm… well… It's kinda hard for me to ask a girl out when my best friend insults her best friend because he's a got a huge crush on her but he's too stubborn to admit it," Ash said, with a knowing gaze.
Drew started to choke on his pizza.
"I do not, repeat not, like May Louise Maple," Drew said angrily.
"Look, I know I'm dense, but I'm not stupid. You like her. That's why you annoy her," Ash said.
"How old are we? People stopped doing that when they were 8," Drew pointed out.
"But you annoyed her when you were 8 too! Plus, today you were angry that she listened to me and not you," Ash pointed out.
"I was angry because she was being stubborn," Drew said defensively.
"And why don't you like Brendan?"
"I don't know!"
"It's because he hangs out with May."
"What have you been doing? Making a list of clues of why I like May? Who does that?" (A/N Heh… he'd better not check out my site then…)
"Face the facts! It's cleansing for your soul," Ash said.
"Can we change the subject?" Drew asked, biting his Pizza frustrated.
"Sure… what did you get in that Maths test? 200?" Ash asked.
"Actually… 198. I got a bit distracted near the end," Drew admitted.
"Yeah… it's funny that May is right in front of you…" Ash said.
"Ash. You're my friend… so don't make me hurt you," Drew threatened.
"OK. I'll shut up," Ash agreed.
"Good… because it's not like she's anything special! She's plain and utterly annoying and-" Drew ranted.
"And you obviously can't get her out of your head," Ash smirked.
"I'm just saying… she's nothing special," Drew said.
"Fine. At this point, I'll settle. Drew, you need a girlfriend. Seriously… all work and no play makes Drew… stressed or something," Ash finished lamely.
"Makes Drew a dull boy," Drew corrected.
"See? You're spending your time memorizing sayings that rarely come up in real life! Get a hobby or something! Join a class!" Ash said.
"Fine. I'll start a class!" Drew said.
"Good boy!" Ash said, patting Drew on his head.
Drew glanced up at the clock on the wall. It was 8. In an hour… Ash would have to go downstairs to his apartment. And then Drew would be alone again. He was always alone.
Me: I changed the chapter title of Chapter 1. I want to have a theme going for the 1st 3 chapters.
May: OK.
Drew: Why was this chapter so short?
Me: Meh.
Drew: That's not an answer!
Me: So? Please review. Thank you.
