Me: Hi! Ummm… this is just a random one-shot that popped in to my head and I need to use or my head will explode so… here it is…
Blue Eyes
Drew sat back stage at the contest. May had finished her appeal with Beautifly and she was looking straight at the camera. Drew was watching her intently. He watched the way her hair swayed in the breeze, almost like it was dancing to a song. He watched the way her soft looking lips curled into a sweet innocent smile. He watched the way her body moved as she walked away. And he watched her eyes. Her beautiful, beautiful eyes.
"Your girlfriend is getting prettier," said a sneering voice.
"Yeah…" Drew said distractedly.
"A-ha! So you admit she's your girlfriend!"
"What?" Drew said, coming back down to Earth with a bang.
He came face-to-face with a grinning Harley.
"Ahhh! Young love! Well… it's my turn to dazzle the crowd! Toodles!" Harley said.
He left. Drew looked back up at the screen. May was long gone. That was probably because she was next to him.
"Hi!" she said cheerfully.
Drew blushed slightly, since he was just thinking about her. But it wasn't deep enough for May to realize.
"So… what do you think?" May asked.
"So-so," Drew said, dismissively.
Drew looked at her. He could've sworn that hurt flashed in her eyes. She huffed and turned away. Drew sat down again. There was 50 acts left and he had already preformed. He found himself thinking about a certain pair of blue eyes.
'How blue are her eyes anyway? I mean… I know a ton of things as blue as her eyes," he thought.
It was a ludicrous thought… but he didn't know why he was thinking about her anyway. He pulled out a notepad and a pen. In his neat writing he wrote the title: May's Blue Eyes
Time passed and he looked down proudly at his list.
May's Blue Eyes
The Ocean
Crayons
Bluebells
Sky
Blue Berries
Butterflies
Sapphires
He put a ring around Sapphires.
'Yeah… May's eyes are as blue as Sapphires,' Drew thought.
There were 10 entries left. He sat there thinking. Why? Why did he spend his time thinking about May? What good was it to know what color her eyes are? He heard her giggling. He looked up to see her surrounded by boys and men, all telling her what a great job she did. His chest hurt. Then it dawned upon him. There was reason why he wanted to know how blue Mays eyes were. It was the same reason he felt her pain when Harley did some evil thing to her. It was the reason why he felt the rejection she felt when she lost a contest. It was the same reason he was jealous of Harley in Hoenn. He loved her. Love. His heart was connected to hers. He was jealous of Harley because he dared to do the one thing he wanted… get close to her.
'I guess it's true. I'm in love with May,' Drew thought, sighing inwardly.
During this he was absent-mindedly drawing on the page. He looked down and in his own writing it said:
Drew loves May forever and everDrew put the piece of paper in his pocket. Well… admitting it to himself was one thing… but telling May he loved her… that was a bridge he wasn't ready to cross.
Me: Done! Don't worry… I may make a sequel… if you want me to…
