There! I can't believe I let this chapter slip by me. Sorry I didn't repost this one sooner.
"Why did it take you a long time?"
I think it was because...now I remember. I'll tell you later. Anyway this chapter occurs after May and Brendan split up again and Brendan just escaped from the grasp of Team Magma.
I was thinking of making this one chapter the sequel or altered version of "Love Vanished Regrettably" since the song I chose for this chapter seemed perfect. However, after writting this chapter...I don't think so. Maybe it will be satisfactory for you guys that wanted a sequel and then again maybe not. I just know I'm going to get a flame for this. I can feel the heat coming. I just know it!
Now back to "I Think It's Love Actually"!
And on with the story, shall we?

Chapter Eleven: A Piece of Love
"Well, looks like I'm back in the water again," Brendan said as he opened the latch to get a breath of fresh air. The taste of salt water was still fresh in his mind. But he remembered the last time he smelt the sea was when he was close to May. Which was always a refreshing memory.
Eyes of summer, ocean breeze
The light, too bright your white chemise
Salty wet I'll never forget
But still your heart I cannot see
Brendan then noticed a strand of a chestnut coloured hair clinging to his shoulder. He picked it up from his sleeve feeling the single piece of hair inbetween his thumb and index finger. The softness reminded him of when May fell asleep in his arms on that night on Wailulu. He remembered her hair brushing against his cheeck and wondered if that was how it got on his sleeve.
And so the girl I used to know
Has gone, withdrawn so long ago
This sea...when it takes you from me
No, I can't sit back and let that be
May stood in a grassy field. A breeze came by pushing aside the blades of grass. There was something that made the breeze seem out of the ordinary.
"Odd... I'm no where near any bodies of water...and was that... Brendan's cologne? Nah, couldn't be. But I wonder where he is now. Where are you, Brendan?" May said as she looked up at the sky.
Can't I be more than just your friend?
These days are coming to an end
I won't believe we're just pretend
Brendan knew deep in his heart May had feelings for him. As much as he tried to deny it he couldn't, because he felt the same way in return.
Give me a... piece of love
Puzzle part that holds you heart
It's hidden deep and won't let me sleep
If we don't move on
We can't put right our wrongs
And these mem'ries of the past will prove lifelong
Brendan thought back to what happened on his journey so far. He remembered the first kiss he ever had was shared with May. Though that kiss was by accident, who would of thought he would of fallen in love with her. Perhaps that was when Brendan started to fall for her. His thoughts drifted to all that happened on Dewford and then eventually the abandon ship. Finally his thoughts came to the night on Wailulu and at Slateport. Brendan then remembered he didn't leave May on the best of terms but it was for her own good. Wasn't it?
A piece of love
Honestly, this like a glove
Straight from my heart is where the words will start
Can't you hear it too
Makes me feel brand-new
And your lips'll be the way for me to play
Love songs for you
If only now Brendan could stop May in her path and tell her how he feels. Just to say those words and have his feelings returned.
Give me a... piece of love
Puzzel part that holds your heart
It's hidden deep and won't let me sleep
It's the piece I need
Without it we can't be
And my love song to you cannot go free
"Who knows if ever we'll meet again before the due date of the showdown. Why do I feel so depressed? Is this heartache I feel?" Brendan wondered as he still held onto the stand of May's hair, looking up at the sky and letting out a deep sigh..
A piece of love
Loneliness from up above
I'd end it now but I don't yet know how
When we're far apart
Hurts us in our hearts
And the more you run for me the more I'll be
Crying for you
Suddenly a strong wind came and blew the last thing Brendan had of May out of his hand. He whispered the one name that came from his heart to be carried in that same wind.
A piece of love
"May.."
A piece of love
May stopped dead in her tracks feeling the wind hit her back.
A piece of love
She turned around to see if anyone was behind her.
A piece of love
"Brendan?" May replied to the whispers that she heard in the wind.
[End of Chapter Eleven]
Yay! Finally done! Well, I hope that wasn't too bad. Certainly wasn't the best chapter. I think chapter eight will always be my all time favorite chapter of the whole story so far. Ok Eefi, you're time to shine! Futuresight Insight!
"Next time on 'I Think It's Love Actually' May is in Mauville. Underground city? Is that Wattson? So, who's that other wierd guy? And that donphan doesn't look to happy. It looks pretty angry... "
Domo and Ja ne!
Too bad that chapter will never come. I would have called that chapter "Innocents" which is kind of ironic considering the situation this story is under. Anyway, you guys don't need to review for reposts.
"Why should they, when they already reviewed this before?"
Exactly, Eefi! Anyway, since all these chapter are currently jumping all over the place, I'm trying to come up of a way to weave them all together that will feature some clips of what happen. (Pieces of what was in the original chapters that I posted.) I've planned to call that chapter or chapters "Chain Of Memories". Problem is I don't know where to start or where to put it. Should I put it before "Run to you" or after "The object of my affections"? I can't repost the chapters that acted as summeries of the manga. It would be crime. Literally...
