A coffee-color haired girl was sleeping peacefully on an antique four poster bed curled up on her side. She was wearing a white tank top and denim shorts. Sprawled around her was sheet music after sheet music, all in artful disarray around her. Sunlight streamed through the crimson curtains, gently prodding her to awaken. He sapphire eyes fluttered awake sleepily. She stretched and yawned before checking her bedside clock. It read 8:00 a.m. She sleepily rubbed her eyes as she dragged herself into the living room.
The name of the mentioned girl was May Maple. She, along with her roommate and best friend April were students at the prestigious Lilycove Academy and today was the last Saturday of their summer vacation, then, it was off to high school.
"Morning sleepy head," greeted April. April was at least an inch taller than May. She had Mid-back length light brown hair that was straight but it waved slightly toward the end. Her eyes were a dark shade of amethyst and her skin was a soft, pinkish shade. Currently, April was wearing a light green blouse and white shorts while sitting in front of the television set.
May yawned, "Morning." Then, someone knocked on their door.
"Come in," April called out. In stepped a sixteen year old boy with neat sandy blond hair with brown tints and hazel eyes.
"Hey Jun," greeted May. "What are you doing here?" she added as an afterthought.
"My 'master' requested pizza," he replied, handing April a large pepperoni pizza.
"Thank you," was April's response while smiling.
The image started to blur and then, like having renewed lenses, it cleared up. It showed younger versions of the three of them. April and May were walking towards a group of eight year old boys who were all crowding around a blue wave board, or rip stick if you may.
"Hi, can we play?" asked April. Jun scoffed.
Girls can't play with us. You don't know anything about boards."
April raised an eyebrow. "Really? If I were to ride that rip stick now, what would you offer?" she asked. Jun laughed.
"My lifetime servitude," he replied, not taking himself seriously. May smiled.
"You don't know what you got yourself into."
"Can I borrow?" asked April. Jun handed it to her, still smirking. April jumped on the board and boarded all the way to the end of the street and back in record speed.
She grinned at Jun. "I believe you promised a lifetime of servitude." She said. The image blurred again and it cleared up, showing the present time Jun thinking about that memory.
"So, you two ready?" he asked.
"Ready for what?" asked May. Jun rolled his eyes.
"For high school, duh."
"Yup!" chirped May.
"Good for you!" replied April with enthusiasm as she grabbed a slice.
"Hey! Save me some!" yelled May.
The scene faded out and it was replaced with one of April and May looking at the stars from a window in a dark room. May sighed sadly.
"Why so glum?" asked April.
"I'm leaving tomorrow," she replied, looking down sadly.
"So?"
May looked abashed.
"What do you mean so? Then, we wouldn't see each other until summer vacation!" she exclaimed, now angry at her friend's nonchalance. April's eyebrows rose.
"What the heck are you saying? May, tell me this, where do I live?"
"LaRousse."
"And where am I going to study high school?"
"LaRousse. What's the point?" replied May. April looked at May with an incredulous expression adorning her features.
"May, where the heck do you think you're moving to, Slateport?" asked April, her voice rising in a semi mocking tone.
"No. We're moving to…LaRousse! Ugh…stupid…" muttered May, mortified. April laughed heartily at her. May sighed and then smiled.
"At least I'll get to spend high school with my very best friend." She said. April just nodded and the two stared at the stars that evening.

Meaning behind the chapter title:
Adagio – adverb. in a leisurely manner; slowly
~Chapter two is entitled Adagio for the story starts slow, not really reaching any of the key events as of the moment, thus meaning this is a filler.
