HotXbun: I am so sorry that it has been over two weeks since I last updated! It took me forever to do all the research I needed to do!
It's time for auditions!

Chapter 52 Audition Day
Ash's POV
The Next Day
I stopped in front of the academy.
It was audition day so a bunch of kids were lined up in front it. [Follow Your Heart Extra: Sweet!]
With that May walked up to me.
"Hey Ash", she greeted.
"Hey May", I greeted. "You okay? You seem nervous."
"I am nervous", May revealed. "Today's the day of the audition!"
"Don't worry", I reassured. "You'll be fine."
With that May gave off a sigh of relief.
"You're right", she stated. "Panicking isn't going to get me anywhere."
"You've got this", I stated before putting my hand on May's shoulder.
This made her smile.
"Thanks Ash", she said making me smile. "Well", May started. "I'd better go and practice. Will you come to my audition?"
"Of course", I replied. "Wouldn't miss it for the world."
This made May blush.
"Well then", she started. "See you then!"
With that May left.
And as soon as she did...Sky walked up to me. [Follow Your Heart Extra: Oh no.]
"Hey Ash", she greeted. "I couldn't help but notice that you were talking to delivery girl over there."
"You mean May", I asked.
"Yeah", Sky replied. "You guys a couple or what?"
I wish. [Follow Your Heart Extra: Yes! He admitted that he wanted to be with May!]
"No", I said. "We're just friends."
"Good." [Follow Your Heart Extra: Good?]
"What do you mean by that", I asked.
"Oh", Sky said nervously. "No reason. Anyway, I was wondering if you wanted to go out for ice cream after school?"
"Sure." [Follow Your Heart Extra: Double oh no.]
Gary's POV
I was walking through the academy when I saw somebody I did not want to see.
He had ear length, dark brown, layered hair and layered bangs that covered his forehead; olive green eyes and pale skin.
He was wearing a blood red sleeveless shirt; black jeans; blood red sneakers with white soles and a black, short sleeved over shirt that was unbuttoned. [Follow Your Heart Extra: This character's design is based off Hiccup's from How to Train Your Dragon.]
He had a Charmander on his shoulder.
"Hey cuz", he yelled before he ran up to me. "It's me! Ethan! Your Cousin." [Follow Your Heart Extra: (does spit take) Cousin?!]
With that I grabbed Ethan and pulled him to the side.
"Listen here", I commanded. "When we're here, you don't know me! I am a king bee! And you are just a simple worker bee."
"You can't do this", Ethan stated. "I'm your cousin."
"Well", I started. "I don't care."
With that I left and walked up to May.
She was wearing her audition outfit which consisted of a lilac, knee length dress with white, long, sheer sleeves and light brown, knee length boots.
Her hair was straight and loose.
She was wearing lilac eyeshadow with white eyeshadow on top on it; black mascara; lilac blush and white lipgloss.
Her nails were painted lilac with white tips.
"Are you nervous", I asked.
"Very", May replied.
"Well", I started. "Maybe a kiss on the cheek will make you fill better?"
Before May could protest...I kissed her on the cheek. [Follow Your Heart Extra: Oh no he didn't!]
I looked up...and saw Ash and Drew.
They did not look happy.
I smirked at them and mouthed 'She's mine.' [Follow Your Heart Extra: Oh no he didn't again!]
Ash glared at me and Drew raised a fist.
Before anything else could happen, Ella walked up to us.
"You're up next May", she revealed. "You ready?"
With that May took a deep breath.
"Ready as I'll ever be", she replied.
With that her and Ella walked to the Coordinator classroom.
Ash and Drew angrily walked up to me.
"What was that", the latter asked.
"What was what", I asked.
"Don't lie to me Gary", Drew commanded. "You kissed May on the cheek!"
"And you said she was yours", Ash added. "She is not yours!"
"Does that make her yours?" [Follow Your Heart Extra: Ooo!]
This comment made Ash blush.
"Exactly", I said before I walked into the Coordinator classroom.
Ash and Drew followed.
I saw May standing in front of Ella.
"Whenever you're ready May", the latter said.
With that May looked at her Pokéball nervously.
"Actually", she started. "Is is okay if I have a friend in here with me? I'm very nervous and having a friend with me will calm me down."
"Of course", Ella replied. "Who would you like?"
With that May turned her head and faced...Ash. [Follow Your Heart Extra: Ooo! Gary's not going to like that.]
"Ash", she started. "Would you come in here with me please."
I looked at Ash...who looked stunned.
He then nodded.
With that May took his hand and pulled him into the room.
He stood next to Ella.
"Okay", May said before holding up her Pokéball. "Let's go Glaceon!"
With that Glaceon appeared.
"Let's go", May said. "Use 'Ice Beam' on the floor!"
With that Glaceon did as told and the whole floor became an ice rink!
With that Glaceon staked around the whole rink, doing tons of tricks as they did.
May and Glaceon finished their routine...and Ella cheered! [Follow Your Heart Extra: Yes!]
"Bravo May", she said. "That was amazing!"
"Thank you so much", May said.
She then smiled at Ash.
He smiled back...and this made me angry. [Follow Your Heart Extra: That's what you get!]
Ten Minutes Later
I walked into the meeting room.
Sadly...Ethan was following me.
"You can't do this Gary", he stated. "We're family."
"Who is this", Belle asked.
"I'm Ethan", said person revealed. "I'm Gary's cousin."
Upon hearing this...Belle started laughing.
"Is this guy for real", she asked.
"Sadly", I started. "Yes."
"Oh you poor thing", Belle said.
"Hey", Ethan yelled. "You guys are mean."
With that Ethan left.
"Are you okay", Belle asked. "You seem angry."
"Angry", I asked. "Why would I be angry?"
"Because May asked Ash to come into the classroom instead of you."
"You saw that", I asked.
"Yep", Belle replied.
"Well", I started. "It doesn't matter, because May will be mine!"
HotXbun: (gulps) Uh oh.
Challenge: Tell me what you think Gary will do.
My Answer: He will use a school project to his advantage!
