Since I got such a great response to the last chapter I decided to…update again!
Sea: YAY!
Me: Not only that but I'm wondering if you peoples would like me to make a story just based on the three couples in the last chapter. If so tell me in a review.
Sea: SAY YES!
Me: Again thank you for such a great response.
Sea: THANK YOU!
Me I own nothing…except my made up pokemon.
The Story Behind It All
"So Rolyn, were you excited to see Jason again?" May asked slyly as she ran a brush through her wet brunette locks. The three girls were currently getting ready for the day's events in the bathroom while the boys got ready in the actual hotel room suite. They would switch off soon. All three girls were standing before the large mirror, each in front of a sink and wrapped in a towel in a distinct color; Rolyn was in green, may was in red and Riley was in amethyst.
Rolyn looked into her reflection and noticed that her cheeks were bright red in a heated blush. She quickly diverted her eyes down to the comb that was sitting in front of her on the sink counter and snatched it up to occupy herself with detangling her hair.
"I guess…" She muttered still casting her gaze downwards. "I mean I saw him in my first contest here so it really doesn't matter." She added with a shrug as she let out a sigh through her nose and looked back up in the mirror to gaze at her reflection.
"I wanna know the story behind you two…" Riley said before bending over to splash some water in her face. Rolyn shifted her weight to one foot and sucked some air between her teeth.
"Yea…I want to know the whole story too." May laughed as she reached for a scrunchy to pull her hair up in a ponytail to wash her face.
"Only if you two agree to tell me how you met Drew and you met Ray." Rolyn said pointing at May and then to Riley. The two girls glanced at one another before shrugging and nodding in agreement. Rolyn sighed and shut her eyes.
"Well you may not know this but Cizzi is not only my best friend but my foster sister. Her family took me in when I was five…my parents were killed not long before my fifth birthday. They gave me an egg which is my prize winning Typhlosion." Rolyn explained.
"Oh…" May and Riley trailed off together with sympathetic expressions for their friend. Rolyn smiled in a bittersweet way and nodded.
"Yup…me and Cizzi had a lot to work to do so we couldn't leave for our journey until we turned fifteen which was last year but I've known Jason since I was ten."
"Same with me and Drew." May said with a sweet smile.
"Did Drew live up the street from you?" Rolyn questioned in a dry tone with a blank look on her face. May shook her head and Rolyn smiled for a millisecond before her blank expression returned. "You don't know how it was for me then."
"Whoa so he was your neighbor?" Riley questioned quirking an eyebrow at Rolyn. The ebony haired girl nodded grimly.
"When he first moved up the street I actually thought he was the most handsome boy I've ever met. I was a very shy girl back then so I admired him from afar." Rolyn explained in a tone just above a whisper as her face turned deep red. "I even got j-jelous when he spoke to other girls…"
"Ooh." May and Riley cooed in unison with mischivious smirks on their faces. Rolyn blushed even more and began to focus on doing her hair, all the while still telling her story.
"Yea…" She laughed lightly. "He was the guy of my dreams…until we finally met. We were exact opposites of each other. He likes fire types I like ice types; he loves gym battles, I love coordinating; we argued constantly! It was crazy but my crush on him still remained in the back of my mind. We became friends…sorta and when me and Cizzi were finally able to leave our city of Peridot to adventure into our region…he came with us…and during that journey we became closer…and we actually got envolved with each other."
"WHAT!?" May shrieked. Riley just stared with her mouth hanging open. Rolyn blush an even deeper shade of red as she pulled her hair into a high side ponytail and fluffed her bangs. "You guys dated!?"
"Sorta…it lasted for like…a month before we got separated for a while. I came here on my sixteenth birthday with Cizzi to begin my second journey and we saw him again; I was so excited to see him again but…it seemed like we just started back at the beginning; just arguing all the time. It was like he didn't remember anything." Rolyn said through a shaky breath. Her eyes were glazed over and she swallowed a lump that formed in her throat. She would not let this get to her.
"Were you hurt…?" May asked hesitantly. Rolyn glanced at her reflection and noticed that her eyes were about to flood over with tears. She quickly swiped them away with the back of her hand and nodded in response to May's question.
"Yea…I was. Cizzi knew I was hurting too but I know she's not saying anything for the sake of my feelings. I-I was happy to see him but…it was like what we had never happened so I went along with it and here we are." Rolyn finally finished while she sniffed. A lone tear slipped down her cheek and she laughed lightly as she swiped it away.
"Oh…Rolyn…" Riley began. Rolyn raised up her hands and laughed lightly.
"I'm fine! Really; I just had to learn to except it and I did." She said as she rubbed her eyes one last time. "Riley, why don't you tell us about you and your boy-toy Raymon…" She said in her best Spanish accent.
"Please don't say boy-toy…" May muttered as a chill ran up her spine. Memories of a certain purple haired…friend came to mind.
"Well…okay…I actually met Ray at my very first contest in my home region which is the Kennis region. He's from there too…he just lives far from my home town. I had just gotten my Meditite as my first pokemon and I had caught an Eevee too. Meditite didn't have control over its psychic so things would levitate like crazy!" Riley exclaimed.
"I hear ya." Rolyn said nodding for the girl to continue.
"Well Meditite had accidently levitated his Persian into a lake." Riley said sheepishly as she rubbed the back of her neck out of embarrassment. May and Rolyn glanced at one another before busting out laughing. "It's not funny!"
"Yes it is." May laughed lightly while patting Riley on the shoulder.
"Anyways…" Rile began shrugging May off and glaring at her. "He was pretty angry at first but he explained to me that if I gained control over that attack I could use it to my advantage. He was nice enough to train me and he was really strict. I tried my best in the contest and I lost to him and his Persian. He told me I did good though and he gave me a pink lily for the first time."
"Awww…" May and Rolyn trailed off together. Riley blushed scarlet and turned away.
"He's been coaching me through my coordinating each time we met up but he was always so hard on me! That's what gets on my nerves! He's nice enough to help me but he helps me by yelling or forcing me to keep trying one attack over and over! That may work for him but I have my own way of handling things." Riley said clenching her fists.
"I know what you mean…" May muttered as she remembered a time when a certain green haired boy insulted her just because she didn't push her pokemon to the limit or was harsh on them.
"Despite that he's a good friend and he's even helped me and Diandra out of bad situations. He looks out for me." Riley said with a cheerful smile.
"At least your story has a happy ending." Rolyn murmured while pouting. May placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder and smiled warmly.
"I'm sure your happy ending will come." She said kindly. Rolyn smiled brightly and nodded in agreement.
"What about you May. You and Drew are close."She said.
"Yea...my story as like a mixture of yours." The brunette said pointing at her two friends. They exchanged looks then returned their attention to May.
"How so?" The asked in unison.
"Well like Rolyn, I met Drew when I was ten and like you, when I was younger and didn't win a ribbon cup, Drew was harsh on me sometimes." May said in a low tone. "The first thing he said to me was an insult…but he was a good rival I'll give him that."
May laughed lightly and Rolyn and Riley exchanged smiles.
"He was practically the reason why I tried so hard…to prove to him I was more than what he made me out to be. When I turned fourteen I began to notice that what Drew did and said to me may have put me down but in the long run it pulled me up to the status I'm at today." May sighed as she remembered when she had won her second ribbon cup. Drew wasn't in that grand festival with her but he came just to help her through it.
"I understood why he was so mean and hard on me and that was because I was like Drew when he started out and he didn't want me to make the same mistakes he made so in the end he was looking out for me. We became friends over time and if we were in different places at different times we'd keep in touch through letters or telephone. He's like my best friend." May said with a small smile.
"That's so cute." Rolyn cooed.
"I agree." Riley said while nodding.
"Yea but he's still an egotistical no-it-all." May muttered with a blank expression. Rolyn and Riley both took on the same expression and nodded in agreement.
"I hear that." Riley muttered.
"Amen sister." Rolyn sighed shaking her head.
"Although on my sixteenth birthday he gave me this…" May turned and pulled out her necklace out of her clothes pocket. She held it before their two friends and they gasped. "I keep tellin myself to thank him for it but I feel like something is holdin me back."
"It's so pretty." Riley mused as she watched it glimmer in the floresant lighting of the bathroom.
"Maybe the time to mention it isn't now May. That necklace looks…important. If Drew hadn't mentioned it maybe he wants to put it off." Rolyn suggested. May nodded in agreement as she put the necklace back in her clothes pocket.
"I guess so." She sighed shrugging.
"Tht was sweet of him to give that to you. I would love it if a boy gave me something like that." Riley sighed as she went into a daze.
"Uh stick to your lilies for now pinky." Rolyn scoffed putting emphasis on Riley's very pink outfit. Riley glared at her but couldn't help but crack a small smile.
"You guys have been in there for like three hours! Can you stop beings girls and get out!?"
The girls looked at the door and recognized that voice. It belonged to Jason. The exchanged looks.
"My god does it take this long for you to simply do your hair?" Drew asked sarcastically. Again, they exchanged looks.
"They're females it's what they do." Ray muttered.
"Fine we're comin out!" May called back as she tightened her towel around her. She smirked and Rolyn and Riley easily caught on.
May swung open the door and the three of them strutted out of the bathroom, heads held high and eyes shut in a dignified manner as they walked in a straight line; all three of them clad in only a towel.
"Happy!?" Rolyn exclaimed latching her hands onto the top of her towel. Riley stuck her tongue out and followed the other two into the bedroom to pick out fresh clothes for the day.
Silence hung over the three boys as they just stood there in shock.
"Did they just…" Drew trailed off as his face began to flush.
"Yes…yes they did." Jason muttered nodding and blushing scarlet. Ray slapped a hand over his eyes, his cheeks flushed as well.
"Aw jeez…" he muttered.
Whoo wasn't that just so enjoyable.
Sea: I guess.
Me: What happened to your enthusiasm?
Sea: It went into my stomach with the giant cookie.
Me: Nice…
Sea: I know…
Me: Well as I mentioned before the story idea involving these three couples is out there…if you guys want it, just mention in a review.
Sea: That means we want you to review!
