A/N: -sniffles- I'm going to miss working on this fic...-sighs- Don't worry, I'll create a sequel, sooner or later. Until then, I'm working on a Winstrateshippy Halloween one-shot. -nods-

Disclaimer: I swear, I don't own Pokemon! If I did, why is this on , huh??

Chapter 10: Happy Birthday, May! Part Two! Finale!

"Hey May, I think Max's heart has been stolen again..." Brendan whispered to the brunette, teasing Max and Vivi.

May chuckled, and whispered back, "Not only that, but Max is acting stranger than last time..."

"Ah...I bet 4000 PokeBucks that they'll be together by the end of the month." Brendan smirked.

May giggled, and said, "I add 4000 PokeBucks to that, Brendan!"

'Just like old times, eh, Brendan? Joking and teasing other people like before...but things have changed since then...I don't know if you even have opened up your heart to another girl...' May thought sadly, but then soon shook the thought out of her head.

"I'm done, May. I'll be in the living room if you need me, 'kay?" Brendan said, and walked out to the living room, sitting down on the couch.

Thing was, he was sitting in the middle of Ash and Misty.

'Latios, what did I do to do this?' Brendan thought to himself, thinking of the possiblities.

"We know you like her, Brendan..." Ash teased.

Misty added, "And we're helping you..."

Brendan was turning as red as his crimson eyes, and quickly retorted, "No I don't!!" (A/N: Quickly retorted? o.O; And a retort is already a quick reply...)

"Fine, whatever. But still, we know your plan, dude." Ash said, smirking.

Misty nodded, "You're going to confess in private..."

Brendan turned even redder, and quickly walked out and up the stairs.

Back in the living room, Misty and Ash high-fived.

.....-Present Opening Time-.....

Brendan looked up at May's clock, anxiously.

"Ugh...how much longer should I take this torture, Rayquazza?" Brendan cried out to the ceiling.

.....-Living Room-.....

After all of her presents were opened, May remembered the note that Brendan gave her earlier, and opened it.

'May:

Meet me in your room...it's urgent.' May thought, as she read the note silently.

"I'm going to go up to my room, 'kay guys?" May asked, then walked up the stairs quickly.

Ash, Max, and Misty all looked at each other and winked, as they followed up after her.

Vivi looked quite puzzled at why they went upstairs, and followed them.

'This is just absurd, Vivi Winstrate! That boy up there is not your boyfriend. So why are you following him?! I repeat: NOT your boyfriend!' Vivi thought, but couldn't hold back the temtation to follow the trio, and saw their ears pressed against May's closed door.

"Wha'cha doin'?" Vivi asked dumbly.

The trio gulped, but Max answered, "We're listening to Brendan and May. Long story short: they like each other, and we're suspecting something."

"Ohhhh..." Vivi replied. "Can I eavesdrop with you?"

Max nodded sub-conciously, as he had his ear pressed on the door again.

Vivi then started eavesdropping with them.

.....-Inside May's Room-.....

"Brendan, what's the matter?" May asked curiously, as she looked at Brendan's red face.

Brendan blushed, "Well...I think I...I well...I think I..."

May smiled, "I know."

Brendan widened his eyes, "You do?"

May giggled, "I can tell from your stuttering!"

Brendan sighed, "That obvious, huh?"

"Yep!"

"Well, I wasn't able to say the whole thing, but I have a whole new confidence renewed in me! Aishiteru." (A.k.a. I love you.)

May hugged him, and said, "Hai, this is ai..." (Ai is love, and hai is yes.)

As if by instinct, Brendan grabbed May into his arms, and the two shared a kisu. (That's a kiss.)

.....-Back Outside-.....

"Awww! Wasn't that cute?" Vivi asked, blushing a little bit.

Ash and Misty smiled a bit, and chuckled.

Misty asked, "Doesn't that remind you of a very familiar couple?"

Ash laughed, "Also known as us? Yep."

The two were giggling out of control, and the other two were staring at them strangely, and sub-conciously, their hands were on top of each other. When Max and Vivi realized it, they blushed and pulled their hands away from each other.

Brendan and May were at the door and chuckling.

"Max has a girlfriend again!" May teased.

Brendan laughed, "Yep! The same one too!"

Max and Vivi were glaring daggers at the two laughing couples.

.....-After the laughing, and at the beach-.....

"Ah...that was good to let it all out..." Ash commented.

"WAAAAAAAALLLLY!!!" came a familiar shrill, as Wally started running from the pony-tailed girl, who had green clothes on.

"NOOOO!! LH!!!!!!!" he cried, then started running.

All six of them had a 'o.o' look on and stared at the two 'green people'.

May and Brendan started laughing, and they watched the sunset with the other four. May snuggled up to him, and smiled.

.....-OWARI!-.....
