DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN POKEMON

Pairing: contestshipping

F: Flowers

Red roses are his signature flower. He always seemed to make one appear out pf thin air as if by magic. I loved it even though in the beginning l really did think they were for Beautifly. Man was I naive or what? Well as a kid anyway. I get a good laugh over now when I think of how silly I was when I thought that.

Looking back on things he always showered me with flowers on so many different occasions. We went from rivals to friends and I noticed the roses increased when he would give me them. They would make me blush when I starting to question his other motives and reasoning for presenting them to me.

I remember finally winning the Ribbon Cup at the Hoenn Grand Festival when I was just a teenager. It was a wonderful moment for me and I felt like nothing can top that feeling, the feeling of accomplishment, truly a dream come true for me. I won and I was so proud that I did this, that I was a Coordinator. I was so proud of my Pokemon, they had come along way and I'm forever in debited to them for their strength and believing in me. Not to mention that I met so many wonderful people and Pokemon along the way. I got to travel the world and met some of my very closest friends because of this journey. But, I also met him. I met Drew Hayden.

He surprised me after the competition that day. I beat him for the title of Top Coordinator and he seemed so proud of me, not once looking disappointed. Later that night after the closing ceremony he appeared before me and had a bouquet of roses this time, not just one like all the other times. My night got even better because he had asked me to be his girlfriend and I of course excepted, I fell in love him a while back hoping he would someday, one day return my feelings.

We traveled to a new region together as boyfriend and girlfriend and it was so much fun. We motivated each other and competed against one another and it made us stronger. I swear we fell in love with each other more and more everyday. We got a surprise invitation in the mail that our friend Ash was getting married to our other friend Misty and I know we were young too but I wondered if he would ever ask me to marry him.

A few years later I was in for another surprise, we were at a New years Eve party in Kanto with some of our closest friends who were like family at this point. With the clock only ten minutes shy of striking midnight, Drew pulled me out into the balcony at our friends home on the outskirts of Cerulean City. He was telling me how much he loves me and just what I meant to him. I didn't even realize that this was a proposal speech. He pulled out the ring and it was sixty seconds to twelve. I said yes and through my tears at midnight we kissed and as if by magic a bouquet of red roses appeared and my heart fluttered like a beautifly flying around in my chest doing silverwind.

Through all the congratulations we got I was still feeling like it was a dream, that Drew had asked me May Maple to be his wife. I was speechless and couldn't stop staring at my ring.

We planned for a spring wedding, the flowers were just blooming and it was symbolic for us. So many different kinds were all over the garden where we held the outdoor ceremony. I walked down the aisle with a bouquet of red roses and Drew had a single rose in his lapel. I couldn't help but smile.

"Babe, she's beautiful. She looks just like you. Thank you for giving me a gorgeous angel", Drew had spoken softly and you could detect the hoarseness of his voice due to the happy tears and tiredness from the night. He brought May out of the trance she was in going down memory lane in her mind.

May had just given birth to a girl and she was mesmerized by her. She sure was a thing of beauty. She looked to her right at the vase of red roses that Drew had given that morning. He was a proud father and had an extra bouquet too, this time they were white roses for their daughter.

"Rose"

Drew met his wife's eyes not understanding what that meant exactly.

With a sparkle in her sapphire colored eyes,"Rose. We should name her Rose Hayden".

May blissfully slipped back into her trance thinking about the bright future and hopefully how many more names she could think of that had a floral theme. She giggled thinking of Misty's sisters, imagining that they would get a thrill out of the newborns name.
