Drew flips his hair "Not bad November, although I was something else"
May smile big at solidad and harley. "Im glad you like my performance" She then glare at Drew. "Go die already"
"Now, now hon... Our little drew here is not been honest right now. He actually love it" Harley put his arms around drew shoulders.
Drew glare at him "Don't touch me" He then moves away from his grasp. "And stop putting words on my mouth".
"Well if you don't like it, then how about putting away your stupid ego and say what you really feel,huh?" Harley looks at Drew with a knowing look, making drew glare dangerously at him.
May look the two guys with a confuse look. "What do you mean harley?"
Harley turn to May and pats her head with a big smile on his face "Nothing that you need to worry about, hon"
Solidad chuckles at the scene. "Wend I'm in a contest with all of you, it's never boring" She then start to walk away from them "Well it's almost my turn. Wish me luck"
"Good luck Solidad!" May say with a big smile on her face.
"Break a leg!" Harley said while giving her a wink.
"Like if you need it" Drew said while crossing his arms. "Your just mocking us"
"I'm not you Drew" Solidad waves at them while she continue to walk to the arena.
May eyes look at Solidad with adoration "She is so cool. I wish that I could be just like her"
"What are you a little kid?" Drew smirk mockingly at her.
"Shut up drew! I wasn't talking to you" She send him a glare.

May's face turn red from anger "Stop treating me like a child" She storm away from them.
"You didn't denied of having an imaginary friend" drew whisper while snickering to himself.
Harley stared at drew face for a moment until he finally said with a evil smile. "Oh drewy! You call her a child, but your not better than her. Cause you try to win her attention just like a five year old do to the girl he likes."
Drew sent him a look that made harley jump a little. "If I were you... I would stay quiet"
Harley fakes a smile "Oh look... Solidad is gonna perform now" he looks to the screen and didn't dare to look at drew again.
Drew sigh and from the corner of his eyes, he stared at May with a unreadable look.
May was happily watching the performance of every coordinators. She had sited on a sofa with skitty laying on her lap. She was impress by solidad performance, she got 10 points. Harley got 9.0 while drew have 9.8.

Lets see who are the lucky contestant" The host look up and the first coordinator to appear was Soledad,there was a coordinator that she haven't seen before and then it was Drew, 3 coordinator appeared and then it was may.
May stand up and spin around with skitty on her arms. "I did it skitty! I made it to the next round" skitty cheer for her trainer, while snuggling closer to may.
"You sure are a cheerfull girl, aren't sure"
May stop spinning and notice a handsome young man standing in front of her. He had blue eyes and black long hair. He was dress old fashion look and was carrying a harp in his arms. He had to raise her head up cause he was taller than her. The man transmitted a calm aura and was looking at her with a sincere smile , that it made may blush a little.

"I'm the first one to fight tomorrow" said Nardo
"Your going against harley" May look a little sad. "I wanted to fight against you"

"Lets see who is gonna be your opponent"
The both of the return to look at the screen and may eye wide open again. "I'm going to go against Drew?!"
"You sure know the other coordinators... I'm guessing he is your rival"
"How do you know?" May look at him again.
"It shows in your face" Nando pats her head friendly.
"He is a tough opponent, but I will not lose so easily" She smile with confident while skitty yell happily.
Nando chuckles at her "Well May and skitty I'll see you two tomorrow" He pats skitty head and walks away while playing his harp.
"See you tomorrow!" May wave goodbye at him while skitty did the same but with her tail.
"Oh my... That guy sure was handsome" May jump to the side while screaming like a maniac, while trowing skitty up in the air. "Calm down hon, it's me" Harley said while waving at her.
"Harley! don't scared me like that" May yell at him while catching skitty who was enjoying been trow at the sky. "Where did you come from?"she then notice Drew and solidad, who were standing right behind harley. "where did you all come from?"
"If you weren't so engross at flirting with that guy, then you would have notice" Drew spoke angrily at her.
May gasp at him "I wasn't flirting! and why are you so angry?!" she point at him while still holding skitty.
"huh!? Im not angry" He looks to the side, avoiding eye contact with her.
A vein pop out on her forehead. "What the hell is your problem." she then notice that soledad and Harley were laughing a lot. "And why are you two laughing?"
"Don't mind us! we are just laughing at a kid we saw that was totally jealous on seen his crush talking to an extremely hot guy." Harley said while falling on the ground and laughing like a maniac. This earn a deadly glare coming from Drew, but harley ignore him.
"what's so funny about that?" May ask while looking at the 2 of them confuse.
Soledad stop laughing and looks back at May. " Never mind that May... Who was that man?"
"oh! I just meet him today. His name is Nando and he is also a coordinator just like us." She then look at harley "Harley he is the one that you will face tomorrow"
By hearing this Harley stands up and look at May with amusement "Your telling me that I'm gonna fight that handsome boy tomorrow?" He then turn his head toward the direction where drew is and snicker "This just keep getting better and better. Don't you think so drew?"
"That guy is just lucky that he didn't get put against me" Drew said with a demonic grin.
"Oh right, drew" this earn the say guy attention. "Prepare for our battle tomorrow"
Drew return back to normal, by giving her his famous arrogant smile. "Just so you know, I'm not going easy on you"
"I wasn't expecting you to do it" May grin at him.
"urg! stop flirting right in front of me" Harley said with disgust while looking away "Get a room you two lovebirds"
May blush madly "W-what?! we are not flirting!" skitty jump out of her trainers arm and she start running around.
"Who would ever fall for a girl as stupid as her?" Drew said while pointing at her with an uninterested look.
May punch Drew in the stomach "Don't say stuff like that to girls! How can you be so popular with the girls?"
Drew smirk at that while flipping his hair. "Cause I'm irresistible to all kinds of girl"
"Well thanks God I'm not like all that's girl" She looks at skitty. "skitty let's go back to our rooms. Night everyone" May start walking away, follow by skitty.
"I wish you were interested in me, like all of those girls" Drew whisper to himself, but sadly Harley and soledad heard it.
"Oh! you finally admit that you like her?" Harley said in glee
"Finally I feelings won against your stupid ego" Soledad said with a smirk.
Drew stay silent for a moment until he looks at them annoy "What are you guys talking about?"
"Oh don't play the innocent one, we heard it" harley said.
"And what did I said to let you guys assume that I'm in love with her?" Drew said with a bored look.
"You just said that you wish that she was interested in you like ll those fan girls of yours" Harley said while pointing at him angrily. "So you can't denied of what you say"
Drew stay silent again until he smirk at him. "It looks like you misheard me, like always." He then turns around "But if it makes you feel good thinking that I say that, then it's fine. bye bye" Drew said while walking away calmly.
Harley stay in shock for a couple of minutes until he finaly recovers and turns to look at soledad. "Soledad!" he puts both of his hands on her shoulders. "That arogant bastard though that I fall to his lie... I know what I heard"
"He sure is a bad lair" Soledad smirk to herself.
