DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POKEMON

High School Troubles

Chapter 4

"May Maple." The stern and firm voice of Mr.Thornsbill, the Math teacher said.

"Here." May replied, she was currently doodling on her writing notebook, she had loved writing poems, ever since she was a child and kept her notebook with her at all times. May looked at her notebook, the front cover had scribbles everywhere on it. While, the teacher continued with the roll call, May looked through her notebook, poems from her 3rd grade year were still there.

Her first poem ever, was called Midnight. It wasn't her best poem, but it led to her love of poetry. After they were done with the roll call, Mr. Thornsbill passed out a worksheet that everyone could work with one partner to complete. May looked around, sadly for her, Misty, Dawn, Ash were all in Science at the time.

So, May waited for someone to come to her, she was always shy at meeting new people and wasn't that good with first impressions. May sat silently in her seat, continuing flipping through the pages of her notebook. Then, she felt a gentle tap on her shoulder. She looked up only to see, the boy from earlier, Brad!

"Hey, um…Sorry about earlier, but want to be partners?" May nodded. She felt someone staring at her and turned around to check only to see Drew glaring at her back. May shivered, "Why does he have to sit behind me?" She thought to herself, but quickly turned around and started the worksheet. She was going to do the odd questions, while Brad did the even numbers. Surprisingly enough, they finished in about 10 minutes way before everyone else was finished, May smiled, proud of herself.

"You're really smart." Brad complimented. May blushed, but thanked him for his nice comment.

"Ahem." A voice coughed from behind them, May already knew that voice, the one she had heard so many times before.

"Yes, Drew?" She questioned, irritated.

"Could you help us with this question, we don't get it?" Drew asked, pointing to the girl next to him, his partner. She was very beautiful and had very pretty clear blue eyes; her long mid-back brown hair cascaded around her shoulders and some of her hair framed her heart shaped face. May felt a feeling inside of her, jealousy? "No it couldn't be, why would I be jealous if I saw Drew with another girl? It's not like I like him or anything…do I?"

"Hello?" Drew said, waving his hands in front of her. May shook her head, snapping back to reality. " Well, do you know the answer or not?" Drew queried, starting to get impatient.

"Yeah, it's –25." Brad answered for May. May turned around in her seat silently thanking Brad. Brad just nodded and returned to his seat.

"Is everyone done?" Mr. Thornsbill questioned, scanning the room to check. Everyone nodded.

"Good, now we will go over the answers. You will each get a random paper to correct." He passed out the papers. May got Drew's paper, while he got hers. May looked at Drew's paper, his handwriting was very neat. She remembered how she and Drew had to do an essay together about the wolf in elementary school together. He had written the paper while May researched and gathered the notes.

After grading the papers, everybody handed each other's papers back to each other. May looked at hers to see how many she had gotten wrong, none. But, on the back of her paper there was a note from Drew. It said…
