Love In the Strangest People
YAY! Thank you SO much to ALL of you that reviewed! Reviews make me happy! (Or maybe it's the sugar…) Anyway, if you guys want more fluff, write it in your reviews plz. Thx.
" DREW! DON'T LEAVE ME! WAAAAIIIIITTTT!!!!" May whined. Drew laughed. May panted, when suddenly, she tripped on a rock that came out of NOWHERE!!! (DUN DUN DUN DUUUUNNNN!!!!!) She rolled down a conveniently place slope and fell on Drew, and they continued rolling until May managed to stop them somehow. Drew grunted, but managed a smile.
" I'm SO sorry! I wasn't looking and-"
" That's okay. I know that clumsy is your middle name!" Drew teased.
" HEY!!" May shouted.
" Hey, look! The stars seem to be forming a heart!" Drew pointed out. Indeed, some stars seemed to be forming a heart. Drew stared at the velvety blackness that seemed to extend past beyond his dreams. The night sky was a dream cloth, and the stars were the bits of imagination that came together to form his dreams. He closed his eyes and let the wind ruffle his hair. May stared hard at the sky.
" It looks like a kangaroo-frog jumping over a jelly beanstalk!" She declared, breaking Drew out of his daydream- I mean night-dream. (Want to know what he was thinking? Think dirty thoughts.)
"…May, is it me, or do you ALWAYS act like a ten year old? May, you're 14!!" Drew exclaimed, irritated.
" Drew you naughty boy! What's wrong with having an imagination? I bet even YOU had one before. I think you lost it when you were busy growing up." May winked at the rather flustered boy.
" But my appeals are better than yours!" Drew smirked.
" They are just fragments of what you lost a long time ago. Kind of like a pathway to your imagination that has been locked up for a long time. Only when you do appeals does that imagination of yours have the chance to shine!" May wagged her finger sternly. " Like the door to a heroic rescue involving dragons, princesses, knights and a BIG stone castle!" May cheerfully grinned.
" You know, for a second there, I thought you were acting mature." Drew rolled his eyes. May grinned devilishly.
" Mature? I'll show you mature." She slowly started to close up the space between them, when…"
" OMIGOSH! PLEASE DON'T TELL ME YOU LIKE THIS GIRL, DREWSY!" It was Ashley, who was staring at the two in disbelief.
" What if I do?" Drew groaned.
" I know you don't. I mean, LOOK at the way you look at me!" Ashley squealed. (If you want me to describe it, he was looking at her in the I wish You-would-cease-to-exist-then-vanish-into-pieces-of-ash-and-fly-into-outer-space-and-be-forever-forgotten-so-me-and-May-can-be-alone-for-ONCE kind of way.) May rolled her eyes.
" Have you EVER been rejected by a boy before? I'll show you what it feels like. Delcatty! Come on out and use double slap LIGHTLY on this girl!" Delcatty came out and immediately obeyed, causing Ashley to shriek in fear.
" I'll leave for now, but SOMEDAY I WILL GET MY REVENGE!" Ashley ran away.
" You've been rejected before?" Drew asked, wide eyed.
" I don't want to talk about it…" May looked away.
" At least his name?"
" Okay… His name Brad Willow." (WHAT? May MAPLE, Brendan BIRCH, why not willow?) Drew visibly flinched.
" Tell me…did this Brad have blonde-brown hair and hazel eyes?" Drew gritted his teeth. May looked up in surprise.
" Yes! Did you know him?"
" This Brad happens to be my childhood 'friend'… that stole one of my pokemon." Drew glared at the sky.
" REALLY? Did it happen to be a blue Roselia with lightning bolts on the sides?" May asked. Drew nodded.
" I got another Roselia that has been a great friend and partner, but it will never replace that other Roselia… It's hard to find shiny pokemon like that…" Drew gazed off. May fell asleep after a while. Drew gazed at her ever so softly and brushed his lips against her cheek before he too, fell
Drew woke up to the bitter taste of Dandelion juice on his tongue. Spitting it out, he looked behind him to see May cheerfully gathering dandelions and ripping of the ends to get more juice, then putting the juice in a small bowl and putting in small, purple flowers.
" What are you doing?"
" Making nectar milk. It helps me think in the morning." May stirred in more flowers and dandelion juice. (Yea, I know. Kinda not-really-staying-on-track…)
" But the Dandelion juice is so bitter. How can you drink it?"
" I put in these flowers that only grow in my mom's garden. They contain nectar that tastes like sugar." May said, completely engrossed in her work. When she finished, she gulped down the liquid, and then smiled at Drew.
" Okay! Let's go!"
May poked around nearly every corner of the place they were walking, looking for something, and irritating Drew.
" What ARE you looking for?" Drew asked.
" A Dratini. I know they are kinda rare, but- hey, look! A blue roselia!" May shouted. Drew whirled around, only to see nothing. May giggled.
" Gotcha!"
" Hey look a Dratini!" Drew pointed behind May.
" I don't believe you."
" No, SERIOUSLY! Look!" May turned around, and sure enough, there was a Dratini, staring at the two.
" OH LOOK!! IT'S SO CUTE!" May grinned. Come out, Leafeon!" A poke ball flew out and out came the grass type.
" Use vine whip!" May ordered. (It CAN learn that…right?) Leafeon obeyed, striking the dragon type. " Razor leaf!" leaves flew out, but they missed. The Dratini unleashed a twister toward Leafeon. It was a perfect hit.
" Leafeon! Oh no… That's it! Use Giga Drain!" Leafeon absorbed the energy back. Dratini was getting battered. " Great! Go, ultra ball!" The ball rocked once… twice…Three times! " Yes! I caught a Dratini!" May cheered and returned Leafeon. Drew shook his head.
" You are so immature." He yawned and started walking again. May harrumphed.
" You could at least congratulate me!" The brunette smiled, then released her Dratini and gave it a potion.
" When you get more experience, maybe someday you'll turn into a Dragonite!" May told the Dratini. It blinked at its new owner, and then happily cheered. Drew stopped.
" Did you hear that?" He asked.
" Hear what?" May asked.
" I heard a crunch…" Drew frowned.
" Ariados! String shot!" A voice came out from the bushes. An Ariados jumped out of the shadows and attacked May. The girl cried out and tried to pull back, but the attack was too…sticky. Drew frowned and pulled out a poke ball.
" Come out, Golem! Use Rock Tomb and surround that Ariados!" Rocks fell around the Ariados and trapped it.
" Ack! My precious, dear Ariados!" Harley ran out from the bushes to try and free his pokemon, but to no avail.
" Dratini! You're still out! Use Twister on Harley!" May ordered the blue pokemon. It unleashed the attack multiple times at Harley at an extremely fast rate. (Maybe it has a grudge against Cacturnes…) Harley yelped.
" Return, Ariados!" He turned back and glared at May. " SOMEDAY I'LL GET MY REVENGE!" Then he ran away like the crazy maniac he was. Drew stared after him. "Dratini, use slam on this stupid String shot." May shouted out. The pokemon continuously slammed the net until May broke free.
" Thanks Dratini! Let's see what moves you know…" May took out her Pokedex and scanned Dratini. " Um… Twister, Slam, Dragon rage and Agility! That means a few more levels and you'll evolve!" May smiled at the small dragon pokemon. Drew returned his Golem.
" We need to move May. Come on." Drew started walking again. May looked annoyed and returned her Dratini.
" You know Drew, I think you are WAY to serious. Loosen up a little!" May shook the emerald haired boy.
" …" Drew remained silent. May sighed.
" Drew, enjoy your life while YOU STILL HAVE ONE!!!" May shrieked. Drew rolled his eyes.
" And…?"
" I think you need to be a little more… happy." May's words made Drew flinch. He kept walking straight on the path.
" May, we are going to Lapura city. Focus on that instead of my troubles."
" Troubles?" May asked. Drew twitched.
" Shush and move."
" WOW! LOOK AT THIS PLACE! IT'S HUGE!" May exclaimed with stars in her eyes. (Of course, not literally…) Drew snorted.
" All there is a bunch of shopping malls and a pokemon center. Not to mention a gym, a park, and some restaurants." The said boy flicked his hair. " We'll stay here tonight. The grass was…itchy."
" That's because grass is what it is. I'm going to go shopping. Ta ta!" May happily skipped off. Drew shook his head.
" Come on out, Bagon!" The rock head pokemon came out. " We're going to the park to train. You ready?" Bagon nodded its head and trotted on with its trainer.
May glanced around nervously as she read a coordinator magazine. Frantically, she scanned the page again.
" I am NOT going out with Drew! Who in the world wrote this?" May exclaimed.
" I did." A woman with blonde hair and sunglasses stared at her with wide, azure eyes. She wore a brown turtleneck and some jeans. Her hair was clipped to the back of her head, and she held a notepad. (If you want something shorter, here: Brock would stare at her.)
" You? I am NOT with Drew. This is false information!" May shouted. Some people turned to look at her.
" Shush!" The woman said. " This is a book store. My name is Addison from Coordinators Daily."
" What makes you think me and Drew are together?!" May hissed angrily. Addison looked at May slyly.
" I tend to sneak around here and there, if you know what I mean. And why deny you and Drew aren't going out? After all, I saw you two kiss." Addison winked at the brunette, who inwardly flinched. How does she know that? May thought furiously.
" W-what?!" May sputtered.
" Ah, so you DON'T deny it?" Addison raised an eyebrow.
" I-I need to go." May dropped the magazine and ran out the store. Addison looked after her.
" I'm keeping my eye on you two…" Addison went back to browsing magazines.
May ran right out of the department store and went to the park to train with Dratini. She couldn't stand that woman. I mean, imagine! Butting into other people's business like that… May thought desperately as she ran into someone.
" Hey, take it easy May! What's going on?" Drew asked, worried. Bagon scratched the ground.
" She saw us!" May panted, out of breath.
" Who saw us what?" Drew asked, getting a bad feeling. Under a whisper, May muttered,
" She saw us kiss."
" WHO?"
" That woman…Addison!" May blurted out. Drew stared at May as she described Addison fully.
" Don't worry about it too much. We're leaving tomorrow morning, so chill. Why don't we spar?" Drew suggested. May smiled and nodded.
" Go, Dratini!" Dratini appeared and looked around at the terrain.
" Bagon! Get in there!" Bagon yawned and stepped up.
" Dratini! Twister!" May ordered. " Watch out for that Bagon!"
" Bagon, counter with ember!" The two attacks collided, knocking both pokemon back.
" Bagon! Ember once again!"
" Dratini! Agility and dodge it!" Dratini barely dodged the oncoming attack. " Now use Slam!" Dratini slammed into Bagon.
" Bagon! Get back up and use Bite!" Bagon bit Dratini as hard as it could. (I think this will turn out to be a tie…)
" Bagon! Ember!" Fire hit Dratini, and it got burned. " Yes! This will make it easier!" Drew smiled. Dratini began to shed its skin. Drew was surprised for a second, but then he remembered. " Shed skin…should have known." May glanced at Dratini. Suddenly, the two pokemon began glowing. May and Drew both stepped back as the evolved forms came out.

Yes, I know it's not very realistic for the pokemon to be evolving ALREADY, but I think you can deal with it. AND, once again, I request 5 reviews bfore the next chappie comes up. Thx!
