Update since like last year. I'm finally back with free time, but its been a long time since I've been able to pump out anything good. The drabbles continue, and for the new readers, excuse my first few drabbles, I'm still learning! Even though its been a long time, my passion for this couple is still the same!

Going for one drabble a day- hopefully anyways!

R&R!

Ah... Fourth of July...

Four years ago...

Shot in the arm with a Roman candle- Mudkip blowing out the flames that lit up my favorite trainers outfit, with her laughing insanely as I stared at her madly... I hate it...

Three years ago...

Bottle rocket in the eye... SOMEONE decided to ignite a couple of unstable rockets on the floor. Both her and Combusken had acted innocent afterwards... I hate it

Two years ago...

Fire crackers 'accidentally' thrown right under me... Pain in places I'd never dream... I really hate it...

A year ago...

Fireworks on the lake side, quiet as can be, until she had pushed me... Adding to this bit, I really do hate to admit...

I always let her get away with it...

"May..." I growled, letting out a sigh as I was dragged towards the lake. This was it, another 'nice memory' to add to my collection. "I don't care about fireworks, we've seen them every year." I added, a bit of annoyance to my voice.

I felt her stop pulling me. Looking up in surprise, I noticed that she was biting her lip slightly, as if trying to find the right words. "Well... it's tradition you know... we've been there every year..." She turned away from me, making me quite startled. "... I thought it was... something... special..." Her voice cracked.

Ah crap... Pokemon battles of life and death I can do. Training in the most unhospitable enviroments I can take. Doing research for my Dad I can handle. A crying girl is something that scares me more then all three combined!

"May! I'll go! Just please... stop-"

"Okay!"

"..." Oh. My. Fu- She pulled a fast one on me! How dare she! She grinned slyly as she took my hand and dragged me along, once again. Mumbling minor curses as I was dragged along, I took notice as she turned to me. I scowled slighty, as she stuck out her tounge.

So once again, I've here sitting next to May, watching the beautiful fireworks. Its just a wee bit different though... My hands are sweating and there are Beautiflies in my stomach, my face bright red... May had seemingly decided halfway that she was tired of sitting up, and decided to lean right on me, her head on my shoulders, the smell of strawberries coming from her silky chestnut hai-

CONTROL! CONTROL BRENDAN! I cursed under my breath, "Damn hormones...".

"Hm?"

"Er... darn Heracrosses, they always suck the tree's sapless!" I said quickly, hoping that was a good coverup. She shrugged and smiled, before looking back at fireworks. I gave a sigh of relief, feeling much more comfortable then before. Looking at the girl next to me, I decided it was time to fight fire with fire.

I wrapped my arm around her waist, causing a very 'un May like' squeak. She gave me a surprised look before grinning and snuggling my neck. I blushed bright red, realizing my plan had back fired.

"Brendan..."

"Hmm?" I replied, still uncomfortable.

"Thanks for putting up with me..." She said softly, pecking me on the lips before going back to her original position. I felt my lips, grinning as I put my head on hers.

"No problem... I like being with you..." I replied. "Unless its that time of mont- OW!"

I stared down at her, her fist having contacted my stomach. She grinned slyly as she tackled me over. "So, do you hate it, being with me?"

I grinned.

"As much as I hate to admit... I love it."
