How many was that now? I lost track after the last one I got. I still miss him. Especially after that night...
-A week ago-
Could you believe that I, May, am actually quite happy at this very moment? Although I lost my contest battle it was still great seeing him after a very long while. It may seem weird, but I'm relieved I battled against Drew once again. We've been going on separate paths and communication was at a loss. Still…
"Hey, May. I've been wondering, do you even still keep those roses? For Beautifly I mean?"
He did his signature hair flick which annoyed me because many girls would start to swoon for him, I'll admit I fell for that too. I'm admitting to you, not him.
"Hmph! As if! I gave them to Beautifly but they probably wilted sooner than you thought," why was I mean? Especially to him.
I lied. I actually sent them back to my home. I asked my mom to put them in a vase as she got them. I would call her every week to see how the roses were doing. They were doing fine and I was so happy they were. Of course some wilted and my heart sank when that happened.
"Oh. Alright then see ya." He turned to leave. I wanted to chase after him and tell him I lied.
But could I really do that?
I could, but I'm afraid of what he'll think of me. Some other fangirl that couldn't resist his 'charm' or just some weakling that he'll deny. I'm not afraid of telling.
But I'm afraid of what he might say.
I'm going for it…I can't keep these feeling holed up inside me forever. And with that, I took a step in his direction and reached out, "Drew!" I shouted. He looked at me with a confused look in his eyes.
"Drew…I-I li-li…" My stuttering had taken a whole new level.
"What? You like me or something? I knew you couldn't resist let alone forget," he remarked.
That was what ticked me off, thinking he's so great and everything. So full of himself, I just get so mad!
"I JUST WANTED TO SAY I LIED ABOUT THE ROSES AND THAT I ACTUALLY SEND THEM TO MY MOM TO PUT THEM IN WATER BECAUSE I'M AFRAID THEY'LL WILT AND THEN I'LL KEEP REMEMBERING YOU SO MANY TIMES IN MY HEAD AND- URGH! YOU ARE JUST SO FULL OF YOURSELF DREW!"
I had blown it. I blew up, the top went, and I stormed away from him. I needed to calm down. When I was sure he was out of sights, I stopped and sighed heavily. I messed everything, why did I have to fall with someone who has bad taste in clothes, weird hair colour and has such a big ego! WHY! I felt someone's arms hold on to my waist.
"Did you realize that you made a huge confession to me?"
Oh no…did I? I guess so…
"In fact, I'm relieved. Many girls confess themselves to me but I really pay no heed to them, but you are a whole different story May," he spun me around and kissed me. A blush crept onto my face and since my yes were still open I could see a faint one on his.
We stopped after 10 seconds and he said, "now don't let this get to you head, I won't go easy on you in the next contest," his signature hair flip and a wink before he left.
Now I know, he's an aggravating, self-absorbed, egotistical jerk. But he can be a real softie and sweet at the same time.
I took a room at the Pokemon Centre and as I put my fanny pack down I saw…could it be? Yes, of course. It was a single red rose and attached was a note.
"This time, the rose is for you. Hope to beat you in the next contest :P
-Drew
P.S. I bet you knew it was from me, my mayflower."
I slept soundly with a smile across my face that night, knowing things were going to change for the better.
I dedicate this chap to my fanfic sis: LeafxGreenx3 see ya sis!
