Me: I'm sorry for the really short chapter last time! I really wanted to make it longer but then it would take more time. Sorry, please forgive me! *begs on knees*
Solidad: You are really creeping me out.
Me: Meh. :P I'm also very sorry for the late update. Has it really been that long since I last update? I'm truly sorry. I was grounded for a while and I had exams in my Vietnamese school. I'll try my best now! ^^
Timmy: She has tried to make this chapter as, er, interesting and long as she can.
Me: I hoped you all had a great Valentine's Day! I spent it listening to a song called "I'm a Loner" by CN Blue.
Solidad: Sad. Just sad.
Me: I'm just so sorry guys! *bows very deeply all the way to the ground* I am sincerely sorry. I've never had so much people depend on me! I'm so grateful :) I, Airgirl1560, do not own anything in this story.
Timmy: Read, enjoy, and review!

Drew's POV
My battle with Brianna was a drag. I couldn't wait for it to be over. I had let her get me with some attacks just to be nice, but she really wasn't at my level yet. I glanced over at May to see what her tag battle was like. She was paired up with that guy again while Dawn and Grace were a team. Glaceon and Dusknoir vs. Loppunny and Medicham. May seemed to be having lots of fun, smiling and laughing every now and then.
I glanced back at my battle just in time to order Masquerain to dodge an attack from Brianna's Vibrava.
How come May never smiles or laughs like that when she battles with me? Is it because I'm too good for her? Or is it because she doesn't like me?
"Vibrava, use Sandstorm!", Brianna cried.
"Bubble beam, Masquerain." I quickly said and glanced back at May. She was still smiling. I turned around again and saw that my Masquerain was hurt and on the ground.
What did I miss? Really, this was messing up my game.
"Masquerain, get back up and use Hidden Power".
Brianna looked really content. "Super-sonic!"
But my Masquerain was obviously in too much pain to attack. I didn't react in time and it was it spot on. Masquerain collapsed to the ground.
"The winner of this battle is Brianna and her Vibrava!" The referee yelled.
I quickly recalled Masquerain and looked around. Fortunately, everyone else was too busy eating, talking, or paying attention to their own battles to realize that I, Drew Hayden, was defeated by an amateur.
Brianna ran over to me, still smiling. "That was really fun, Drew! Thanks for battling with me!"
I nodded and glanced at May for the hundredth time. She and her partner had won the battle and were high-fiving each other. What really bugged me was that her smile wasn't for me.
"Brianna, I'm going to go take a walk outside for a bit." I told her.
"I'll go with you then!"
"Sorry, but could I go alone? I need to think."
Brianna looked lost for a moment but sighed. "Okay. I'll be here so when you come back, look for me, alright?"
"Sure." I turned around and headed towards the nearest exit. It was a little breezy outside, but I was glad to get away from the loud noises and get some peace and quiet. The moon was shining, like always. I walked to the railing surrounding flower gardens and stayed there for a while.

May's POV
"That was great! We should do that again sometime!" Dawn giggled. "And I don't really care if we lost. I had so much fun!"
Grace lightly punched her arm. "I bet I had more fun than you."
Dawn stuck her tongue out at her. Timmy and I laughed. I felt a soft tap on my shoulder and turned around. It was Brianna. She looked solemn.
"May, can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Of course!" I turned back to my friends. "Guys, could you excuse us for a moment?"
They nodded and we headed towards the door for some fresh air.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" I asked.
Brianna looked at me in the eye. "You were lying when you said Drew didn't like you, weren't you?"
"Huh?" Why was she bringing this up?
"I can see it on his face! He obviously likes you. During our battle, he kept looking at you and he lost the battle because of not enough concentrating."
I was shocked. Drew? Lost to Brianna? Unheard of. "No, it was probably someone else. Even if it was me, he was probably waiting for me to make a mistake so he can laugh in my face."
Brianna crossed her arms. "Oh, come on, May. Stop denying it. You've been telling me this for a while. How long are you going to keep this up?"
"Keep what up?"
Brianna uncrossed her arms again. "Don't play dumb with me! You know very well what I mean. Just spit it out already, that you and Drew have 'feelings' for each other."
The shock on my face must've shown because Brianna rolled her eyes. "Are you serious? You didn't know?"
But I wasn't listening. I was laughing.
Brianna just stood there while I clutched my stomach, laughing. I took a few deep breathes and steadied myself. I looked at Brianna again and her eyes showed she was hurt.
"May, you tell me it's not true when it is. Why couldn't you tell me from the beginning that Drew liked you instead? Then I never would have gotten this close to him and get hurt." Her eyes began to form tears. "Everyone can see what he's thinking from the way he looks at you."
She turned around a quickly ran away.
"Brianna! No, you've got the wrong idea!" I tried running after her but failed to catch up with her. How did she run in those heels? "Brianna!"
I caught a glimpse of her run past a bend in the road and gave up. I walked back to the party budding and slumped down on a nearby bench. I sighed.
And I had really thought we could've been great friends.
I watched the cherry-blossoms drift to the ground and then looked up at the sky. It was dark with the moon barely shining.
What was up with Drew? Everything was weird now. Why did he have to do his to me?
I sat there for the rest of the reunion, puzzled, until a voice called out to me.
"May? What are you doing here?" it was Drew. Again.
I got up and brushed myself off. "Nothing. Why don't we head back? It's getting really late."
Drew nodded. "Okay. Solidad left a while ago and the others are gone too. I'll walk with you."
We walked silently to the Pokemon Center the rest of the way. I couldn't think of what to say to him. Finally, reaching the door to my room, I turned to him.
"So, what did Brianna want?" Drew asked.
I looked away. How was I supposed to explain this to him? "Well..."
He looked at me with a raised eyebrow. "Well?"
"She likes you but now she blames me because she thinks you have special 'feelings' for me and so now it's all awkward." I blurted out. Um, did that even make any sense?
Drew took a few seconds to process what I just said into his brain. "Why would she think that? You do have a boyfriend, after all."
Boyfriend? What was he talking about?
"What do you mean?"
It was Drew's turn to look away this time. "Isn't that brown-haired guy you always hang out with your boyfriend?"
Timmy? Did he mean him? I stifled a giggle. People around here are getting stranger and stranger. "Why does everyone think the wrong things? No, we're just friends."
I opened the door and headed in but stopped short. "But why would you care?"
Drew dropped his gaze. "No apparent reason."
I was suddenly concerned. The smooth and proud Drew I knew didn't act like this.

"Drew, I know something's wrong, so just tell me."

Drew breathed in sharply and looked at in straight in the eye. I could feel my pulse quicken and my heart beat a little faster than usual.

"May, what am I to you?"

"Huh?"

"What am I to you? A rival, a friend…."

I stuttered a little before answering. "Both, I guess."

"What about something more?"

"What?" I was startled. Why would he something like that? "Um, why do you need to know?"

I fidgeted in the doorway. This was getting really awkward at the moment…

"Um, it's late and I need some sleep. Maybe you should go back, too, Drew. You seem tired…"

I began to shut the door but Drew grabbed my hand and stopped me. "May, don't dodge the question."

I shook his grip off of me. "What is wrong with you today? You're acting all strange. Is this some kind of prank you set up to embarrass me?"

Drew was taken aback at my sudden action and shook his head. "May, you know the truth don't you?"

ARGH! I wanted to scream. What was with all these people and the truth and me being dense? "No, in fact I don't. Why don't you tell me, because I'm getting tired of being the only one who doesn't know a thi-"

I was stopped mid-sentence when Drew leaned in and kissed me. It was like I was frozen and had no control of what I was doing. He pulled back after a moment and whispered, "The truth is, I like you."

He turned around, gently shut the door behind him, and left me standing there, paralyzed like an idiot who had fallen for him. And fallen for him hard.
