Who will be the 100th reviewer? It's a mystery to me….Just 6 more reviews! Who will it be? They get a dedication… nudge nudge
Kimberly didn't know what to think. Time had stopped. Kimberly was emotionless, her world torn apart. Now came the surging pain. The unbearable sound of her heart smashing onto the ground with unbelievable power. The pieces fly in every direction, unable to be found and put together again. No this can't be happening thought Kimberly. The tears came without notice.
Kimberly knew one thing was for sure she couldn't bear the sight any longer. She turned on her heel and fled the scene. May immediately got off Drew's lap. The look of agony on Kimberly's face made May feel guilty beyond all reason. Drew too felt the same way. Even though he detested Kimberly for all the annoying things she did that drove him crazy, she was still his friend. A friend that he did not wish to hurt. Drew didn't like hurting people.
He immediately ran after her. Brendan now appeared, not knowing the events that had occurred. Brendan flashed that blinding smile and lead May for a stroll. May didn't really have the power to say anything and let him take her wherever he wanted to.
Drew had now looked everywhere he could think of. The Royal kitchens, the gardens and almost every room in this massive palace. Where could she be? Thought Drew. Hopefully she doesn't do something drastic…. Thought Drew. Laura suddenly passed Drew. "Oh Drew dear, tomorrow I think you should have some boy bonding time with Brendan don't you think? You haven't done that in a while… and maybe Kimberly and May could do some girl talk" said Laura gently.
Drew was only half listening and said "Huh? Yeah.. I guess". Before Laura could even reply he rushed off. "Boys these days" said Laura before going up the grand stair case.
Kimberly had hidden herself up a tree in a secluded area of the garden. Drew had past by several times but just never looked up. Probably he thought I couldn't climb such a height seeing as I'm wearing such a fancy dress thought Kimberly. Kimberly had practiced climbing trees most of her childhood as she was aiming to build a tree house at the time.
Kimberly was relieved that Drew didn't find her yet. She needed thinking time.
A/N: Italics is the inner voice/voice of love and the non italics is Kimberly's head.
Kimberly stop moping around! Dry your tears! Don't let some girl take him away! In this world, you have to fight for your man! said a voice in Kimberly's head.
What? Are you supposedly my conscious?
Bingo! Except I'm more of your voice of love! I only usually appear when you unlock that special feeling in your heart. Although you've been blocking me out for some time now saying you didn't need my help. So now, since you let down the barrier I'm here to help you with your troubles.
So that was you then? Ohhhhh.. now that's why I wondered why you sounded familiar. How do I win back Drew's heart? I was so sure that he'd be mine.. it hurts me so..
You can beat that girl! Totally! I mean, you're so much prettier than her! You have to fight for your man! Think of more of those brilliant plans of yours!
I'm not sure… thought Kimberly.
Suddenly, May and Brendan came into sight. Awwww!! They look so cute together thought Kimberly. Brendan was laughing about something and May was smiling that gentle, yet genuine smile of hers. Her sapphire eyes showed life, affection and happiness. When you looked deep into her eyes, it made you feel a wave of those happy emotions.
Kimberly couldn't help smiling. Snap out of it! This is your rival! Why wish her happiness? Thought Kimberly slapping herself. Kimberly then noticed something. It was almost unrecognizable but still visible. Her eyes were beautiful, Kimberly had to admit that. They showed life, affection and happiness but there was something it lacked.
When Kimberly saw that heart breaking scene before, they had another emotion. Noooooo…. It couldn't be! Thought Kimberly. Kimberly clutched her heart. It hurt so much. Crying a flood of tears still couldn't cure it. He was her first love. First love was special. Before, May's sapphire eyes had love. Now it didn't.
Kimberly loved Drew never endingly. Even if it meant his happiness and not being with her, Kimberly was still happy. But her selfishness often got into the way.
So what will you do? Asked Kimberly's voice of love.
I really don't know… thought Kimberly.
Well, you obviously aren't taking my advice and fighting for your man?
I just don't know what to think!
Well, you do love him that much… why don't you test if this girl is really worthy of capturing his heart…. If you decide she isn't … then just take him for yourself… I mean you've still got 25 days!
Hmmmmm… I like the idea… let's start trialing!
That's the spirit!
Kimberly dried her tears. I won't lose… I WON'T LOSE! Thought Kimberly feeling a wave of confidence. Kimberly then thought of Brendan's sake. His heart shattering. Her best friend. The more to win! Thought Kimberly. They do make a super cute couple thought Kimberly. Brendan and May then started walking out of the secluded area. Kimberly chose this time to jump down.
Suddenly Drew appeared out of no where and caught her. Kimberly practically exploded with happiness. Romantic!! Thought Kimberly sighing. But then remembered she was angry at him and threw him a glare. She pushed him away and stomped off.
I was so sure that heroic act was going to cheer her up! Thought Drew sighing. But she's not that mad because she looked ecstatic when I caught her thought Drew smirking.
There's no heart the almighty Drew cannot capture….. although how about May? Thought Drew feeling a slight decrease in confidence. If I suddenly change in attitude she'll freak out…. Then what can I do to find a solution to this problem? Thought Drew hard.
Drew then found the solution and smirked broadly. He felt the activation button in his belt and his smirk grew wider. Let prank week begin! Thought Drew.
May POV
I was just mostly strolling around with Brendan but I kept feeling myself wander back to Drew and Kimberly. Brendan was a very nice guy and I couldn't help but smile a lot around him. Unlike Drew, who I mostly cry, get upset or angry I thought as I pouted. I then heard a rustle behind me and out came a tear streaked Kimberly.
I was about to tear away from Brendan when Drew suddenly popped out and caught her. I could see Kimberly look very comfortable and happy. She snuggled into his chest a bit. I suddenly felt a pang of… jealous? No way! Me for him? I admit that I have feelings for him… but I can't help but deny it! I thought.
I was practically screaming in my head. I felt so uncomfortable watching the scene. So Kimberly must have felt worse I thought guilty. Although Kimberly suddenly pushed Drew away and stomped off. I sighed happily but then the guilty feeling came back. It hurt to think of this thought. A sudden thought then came to mind. Should I let go of my one special someone and let Kimberly be happy? I thought.
