Chapter 8

Drew finished registering for the contest, and as soon as he walked outside…he heard them.

"Oh my god! It's Drew!"

"Uh…not now," Drew muttered. Fan girls, and a whole group of them.

"Drew, will you sign my autograph?"

"Drew, have you registered for the contest?"

"Of course he has, don't be stupid!"

"Drew, I love you!"

"I'm your biggest fan!"

"No I am, dummy!"

It didn't take May and Max very long to find him.

"Here we go again!" Max said, exasperated. May walked over to the mob of girls.

"Can't believe I'm doing this for my jerk of a rival…" she muttered under her breathe. May pushed her way through the mob until she found Drew, then she jerked him by the arm, and out of the group of girls.

"Thanks…" Drew mumbled.

"Enough with your thanks…run!" May and Max yelled as the fan girls screamed angrily, finally noticing that Drew was gone.

The three started to run towards the pokemon center, and then May realized…

"Wait, I've gotta get to the contest hall…"

Drew and Max kept running. But Max heard her. "We'll keep running, go alone, if you're crazy enough!" he called back.

"Well, I am crazy enough…" May mumbled to herself as she ran towards the girls.


"May? May calm down." Vivian said as May ran in the contest hall panting. May took a few seconds to try and catch her breathe, then said

"Vivian, I need…sign up…contest" she said between breathes.

"Well you didn't have to come...running?" Vivian finished noticing the girls outside.

"Hey…weren't they following Drew earlier?" Vivian remarked.

"Yah, when I pulled him out of the mob, they went crazy." May answered.

"Hmmm, he never has liked to have many fans now has he?" Vivian asked.

"I guess not…" May didn't really know the answer to that one.

"Well, anyway, let's get you registered." Vivian said.


May flopped down on her bed.

"Someone looks tired…poor little May." May jerked her head up, Max was sitting on his bed giggling and Drew was sitting in one of the chairs at the wooden table in the corner, smirking as usual.

"Well for your information I happened to running head-over-heals from your fans. That doesn't sound very fair now does it, Drew?" May shot back.

"Ohhh, poor May" Drew answered sarcastically.

May lost her temper. "Oh yah? Poor May? I wasn't the one sulking around on the way here! And I wasn't the one that was so pitiful to lie when people asked if I was ok!"

Drew's amused face turned to a furious glare. "Don't ever say that!" he spat.

"Why not?" May asked angrily.

Drew looked like he was going to answer, but decided not to. He stood up and walked out of the room. Max was stunned, he had never seen May and Drew get into a fight that harshly before.

"Nice one May, I think you actually hurt his feelings…" Max said.

"Yah?" May asked still angry "Well good for me!" and she stomped out of the room, in a different direction as her rival.

Max sighed "I should probably see if Drew's alright. And he too left the room.
