Waking up, I look down into Drew's bunk. Obviously I had had May bunk with me. Can't have a boy and girl together…Especially those two! His bed was empty though, and I had a good idea where he had gone.
Outside the Center, was a small pond. Drew was sitting beside it with Roselia and Masquerain. Eevee, had followed me. She doesn't enjoy being in her Pokeball, so she stays out all the time. She ran up to Drew, and jumped on his lap.
Looking up, Drew sees me walking towards the quartet. I sit down across from him, and Eevee runs to play with Roselia.
"So, what's up?" I ask.
"Nothing really. I just couldn't sleep." Drew replies.
"Haha, that same story? Are you sure it wasn't another reason? Like, May being with us?" I ask slyly. Drew looks at me incredously.
"Yes, that is why. I wanted to ask you why you invited her with us. She would have been fine alone." Drew says.
"Yes, I'm sure she would have been. But, that would take away my chance to tease you, now wouldn't it?" I tell him. Roselia lets out a snicker. Next second, Drew is giving her and I the evil eye.
"Dew, you know that doesn't work on us anymore! Look, I'll try to restrain myself, ok? As long as you promise to do the same." I say, trying to strike a deal.
"Fine, I'll try. But, you know we're going to get into some spats. That's just how we are." Drew says.
When we were younger, we'd always tease the other like there was no tomorrow. Rose and Roselia would put up with it for a while or just go off somewhere else. I'd say about every other time, the spats would end in a Pokémon battle, or us on the ground wrestling. Good times, good times.
"Alright, well I'm going in." Drew says, pulling me from my reverie. He starts to head in, and I pick Eevee up and follow.
The Morning
After we had eaten breakfast, we set out into the forest! The air was sp relaxing and the sky above us was a beautiful blue today. We were walking in a comfortable silence up until noon, when we stopped for lunch.
Sitting down, enjoying our different foods, we started to chat a bit.
"So Skye, Drew told me you don't just do contests?" May asked.
"Yeah. I love contests. But, I like to do battling where I don't have to worry about points. So, when we pass gyms, I'll battle there. I do gyms and contests. At the end, I usually end up doing the Grand Festival and the League Finale." I explain.
"Wow, that's cool. I think I'll stick with contests though. I'm not sure about gym battles." She says.
"To each their own, as I say. I've only met a few other people who do what I do. So it's not a big deal. But, there are some people who are a little insane about sticking to one thing. Those guys don't know how to have fun!" I say.
"That's true. When I was traveling with my friends, we met a coordinator who did contests and gyms. He preferred to do both instead as well."
"I'd like to meet him sometime" I say.
"Skye, there's a gym in Ecruteak City, you could battle there to train for the contest." Drew says smirking.
"Oh, little brother, you know me too well." I say, patting him on the head. May starts laughing.
"What is so funny?" Drew asks, looking at her.
"Skye's the oldest?" She asks.
"Yea, I sure am!" I say proudly.
"How is that funny? It's just a fact." Drew almost hisses.
"I just thought you were the older one." May says, calming down.
"Calm down bro. It's all good." I say.
Drew, being the little hot head he is, stays a bit mad for a while, but eventually calms down. After walking almost the whole day, we decide to set up camp.
