I realized I forgot the disclaimer in the last "chapter" (sweat drop) but anyway, here it is!

Contestshipping day 2: Butterflies
--
Not for you, it's for your Beautifly!
I only came to see your Beautifly again.
I guess this is for my Beautifly? Yeah… Something like that…
Beautifly…
Beautifly...
Beautifly.
Those roses were always for Beautifly. Every. Single. One. Or at least that was what Drew always said.
May looked at the rose in her lap that Drew has just given her or her Beautifly as he claimed. She had lost the contest but despite that, Drew had still given her a red rose. It was almost like it had become tradition. Participate in contest, see Drew, give some snarky comment, toss her a rose, and then wave bye.
She had always thought about it but couldn't figure out why Drew would want to give her Beautifly a rose. Or any Pokemon for that matter. And even if he was lying and the roses were for her, she didn't understand why he would do that. It's not that she really cared anyway right?
Then why did she feel disappointed today when Drew had given her the rose and said remember to give this to Beautifly for me. It's not like she was mad at Beautifly or anything. She knew it wasn't the butterfly Pokemon's fault. Besides, Beautifly was the whole reason she and Drew met in the first place.
It's just that the whole giving a rose to a Pokemon was a little… strange. Let alone that Drew gave her red roses and even May knew what that meant. But Drew can't possibly love her Beautifly, that is just messed up and extreamly weird. But if the roses were for her, that would mean… No. It's not possible. There's no way he could ever return her feelings. But maybe…
May shook her head and tried to clear her thoughts. She decided to go down to the beach and get some fresh air. She was probably over thinking things again and getting lost in her own silly fantasies.
May made her way down to the beach where she saw a girl training her Masquerain. This made her think of Drew's Masquerain which in turn made her think about Beautifly and the roses.
In frustration from her feelings, May kicked up the sand and walked off. She started thinking and thought to herself, how would Drew feel if I gave him something and every time I said it was for his Masquerain even though knowing he would want the said item to be for him. Thinking about that gave her an idea.
May happily walked back to the Pokemon center that night. She couldn't wait until the next time she saw Drew so that she could try out what she was planning. She was so happy with herself that she momentarily forgot how frustrated she was. That night, she fell asleep with a smile.

A week later, May found herself in Lilycove participating in a contest.
"Hey May!" A voice greeted from behind.
May turned around and was met with the familiar mop of bright green hair. "Oh! Hey Drew. I didn't know you were here too!" May replied with a smile.
"Course I would be here, didn't expect you to know that though of course Drew said with a smirk.
"Hmp. Well I'm here to beat you and win this contest!" May retorted crossing her arms.
"We'll just see about that. Well I'll see you after I win." Drew said arrogantly and then turned and walked towards the back rooms.
How could I possibly fall for someone so arrogant! May thought to herself. She then also made her way backstage to prepare for the contest.
Who should I use today? May wondered to herself. She looked at the pokeballs in her hand and started at them. I guess I'll use…Beautifly. Keep things nice and simple.
Vivian started introducing the judges and soon the contest was underway.
May and Drew had both ended up making it to the finals and we're about to face of with each other. They battled until the timer ran out and the difference in points was very slim, but in the end, there could only be one winner.
Unfortunately for May but true to his word, Drew ended up winning the contest and was taking the ribbon home that day.
May say in the waiting room contemplating her loss and obviously being a little disappointed, but none the less was happy for her friend and rival.
Suddenly a red rose was thrust into her face and without needing to look up, she already knew who it was.
"Beautifly did really well today." Drew started. There it was again… For Beautifly.
May carefully took the rose from Drew's hand and finally looked up at him. "Is this for Beautifly?" She asked carefully.
"Well…" Drew slightly hesitated. "Of course it's for Beautifly!" He finished quickly.
Taking a deep breath, May stood up from her seat and looked at Drew. "Well… Masquerain did really well today too…" She then went and gave Drew a kiss on the cheek.
Drew's eyes went wide and then moments later his face turned so red it clashed with his hair. But to be honest, May was just about as red.
"I-I-huh?" Drew looked at May all flustered and couldn't mange to get anything out due to being in shock. Finally after a few moments he was able to talk again despite still blushing an intense red. "Wha-what was that for??" He sputtered out.
"That… Well that was for Masquerain for a job well done you lettuce brain!" May started plainly but looking at the floor.
"Huh?? M-Masquerain!?" Drew looked at May with a very confused expression clearly still having trouble comprehending what just happened.
"Yeah… Make sure you give it to him! And see you again soon!" May shouted while running out of contest hall and leaving a very red faced Drew to stand there alone.
After running for a while, May slowed down to a walk and couldn't help the giggles that came out. She couldn't believe she had the courage to do that, but in the end, and saw it worth it when she saw Drew's face. Maybe there was hope for them after all.
And to think this all this started because of a Beautifly and a few frisbees. Wow.

A/N: Thinking about it, it is kind of funny that their relationship started because of a missed frisbee ha-ha. Anyway, see you all soon and hope you liked the story!
