Drew's POV

I would be lying if I said May joining us is a surprise. To our surprise the next town was a weeks walk, so this is where we are right now.

"Can we please take a break, my feet are going to detach from my legs." May complained as we continued walking.

"Would you stop complaining, April." I argued back to her.

"My name is May. M-A-Y, do I have to spell it out for you." "Beside what will a little break do to us?"

"We could be late for the next contest, June." I told her as we continued walking.

"How about we take a small break, so we can rest and train at the same time?" Solidad offered before things got even more heated between us.

We found a small meadow and started to train out Pokemon. Harley and Solidad went to train with each other, so that left me with June. I let out my Roseila and Butterfree and started to train for the contest.

May's POV

After everybody went to train, I decided to take a small nap and train later. I had just leaned back against a tree when I heard a small crinkly under me. I looked down and saw a picture under Drew's bag. I'll just put it back into his bag. I thought as I was just putting it away. But something on the picture stopped me from doing so.

On the picture was Drew when he was maybe 6 or 7 and a girl around the same age. Her hair was a turquoise color but a bit darker. There was a pink headband going through her shoulder length hair. She was also wearing a floral dress and a butterfly necklace. But the most noticeable think about her were her eyes, they were a dark blue color. She looked absolutely breathtaking. Drew was holding her hand in the picture and he looked really happy. He was smiling, he was actually smiling and looking happy.

I wish I could make him this happy, but it seems like he likes this girl.

"Hey May, I thought we should battle together." Drew called to me from the middle of the meadow.

"I'll be there soon, give me a second."

"We don't have much time." "Solidad said we only have an hour before we have to leave again." "What is taking you so long, what are you looking at?" Drew froze when he saw the picture in my hand.

"W-where did you get that!" Drew asked, well demanded from me.

"Who is that girl?" I asked him after there was a silence. His face went pale and he looked kinda scared. I wanted to know who that girl was first.

"Okay, everyone pack up we're leaving soon." Solidad called out, but we didn't pay much attention to her. "What's going on?"

"May, where did you get that picture?" Drew asked me a little calmer this time.

"Tell me who that girl is first." I asked him again.

"Just tell me where you found that!" Drew shouted at me as his face became red.

"Tell me who this girl is first."

Solidad's POV

When we came back from training May and Drew were staring at each other intensely. May had a picture clutched in her hand and Drew looked scared. When I saw the picture I realized it was Drew's cousin. He mentioned her once and said that he could never forgive himself for what he did.

"May, Drew, let's sit down and talk it out," I recommended to them.

They hesitated at first than sat down on opposite sides of each other. Harley and I then sat down in the middle.

"That girl in the picture is my cousin, Cheryl." Drew explained.

"She was my best friend when I was little.

We did everything together and was always there for each other, until that one day. We were in the forest looking for Pokemon, when these people came out and attacked us. We tried to fight back using my Budew and her Mudkip. They knocked my Pokemon with only one attack. I remember them saying, "Get the girl, she is worth more." Her Mudkip was able to use dig and hit their Pokemon with a direct attack.

They eventually knocked her Pokemon out than knocked both of us out. When I finally regained consciousness, Cheryl was nowhere to be seen, I called out her name hoping she would respond. When I went home I told my parents who called Cheryl's parents. When they found out, it was mayhem. They call the police and hung posters like she was a lost dog. They put her name on the radio, on the news, and the newspaper. They offered a big reward to whoever found her. The whole time I kept blaming myself, that I wasn't strong enough to save her. They eventually found her body a few months later near an old construction site in the Johto region. I still blame myself that I wasn't strong enough to to protect her," Drew explained.

May's POV

I felt really bad for Drew and his family. Losing someone close to you would be devastating. I couldn't imagine what would happen if I lost someone in my family or even my close friends.

After a few minutes we got up and continued on our journey to the next contest. It started to get dark after a few hours, so we went ahead and set up our tents. We quickly got a fire started and started to let out Pokemon. We soon realized we were low on food and berries for the Pokemon.

"Harley and I are going to go out and look for some berries," Solidad announced to us. They started to leave and I swore I saw Harley winking at Solidad.

"I just might tell them to cut their act and tell them that we know they are dating." Drew said.

"They're dating?" I asked.

"Don't tell me your that sense, they always go somewhere together and come back giggling." Drew said with a flick of his hair.

After a while Drew came to sit by me. I just hoped he would talk about earlier. I pleaded and pleaded hoping he wouldn't talk about it.

"So May about earlier." No why, why world, do you hate me that much.

"Do you mean about the contest last week?" I asked hoping to change the subject.

"So, why did you react the way you did when you saw the picture." I almost fainted when he asked me about it.

"I just thought she was your girlfriend and that she wouldn't like it if she knew I was traveling with you." Lie. Worst lie I ever made in my life. Even Ash could make a better lie.

"Jealous April." Drew asked with his signature smirk.

"Can we please just let it go." I asked, more like begged.

"Fine, but let's just say I won't remind you of it." Drew said as he left to go into his tent.

I decided to then explore with Eevee since there was nothing to do until Solidad and Harley came back. We walked and walked when we saw some berry trees. I started collecting them and fed a few to Eevee. I started wondering what Eevee would evolve to in the near future. I already had a water, grass, and fire type. I was think either a Glaceon or a Espeon. We continued walking along the path until I saw something I wished I never saw.

Harley's POV

When we found out that we ran out of food, I saw Solidad give me a little wink. Well things were about to get interesting. We started to get deep into the forest collecting berries and edible plants when I grabbed Solidad and kissed her. Yeah I know what your thinking, why in the world would Solidad date a man like me. Well I would tell you the full story, but I don't feel like telling it. All I care about right now is kissing my sugar cube.

"Harley we should start to head back."

"A few more minutes, who knows when we're going to do this again."

Drew's POV

When May came back it looked like she had seen a ghost. When Harley and Solidad came back we quickly made dinner before it got any darker. Soon it was dark and we all returned our Pokemon back into their pokeballs. Before I fell asleep, I wondered what was the real reason why May questioned about Cheryl.
