Chapter 10: Reunion

After losing in the biggest contest of their lives, May Maple and Drew Hayden returned to their homes. But not long after, they decided to start a journey again although both didn't know the other wanted to.

Weeks past and the two coordinators met face-to-face once again, "Drew," May whispered.

"June, at least you're getting on with your life after your horrible defeat against me," and did his signature hair flip.

"The name's May you grass head! And if you completely forgot, you lost too. Ugh! You're still the same egotistical, self-centered jerk you were a long time ago!" She stomped away with her face red from anger and her fists clenched tightly.

"Leaving so soon April? I didn't know you lost your little fighting spirit," he teased.

May stopped in her tracks, turned on her heels and walked angrily towards him with her nose pressing against his.

"Listen here, I never lost my fighting spirit. In fact, it's gotten stronger. So strong that I bet even someone like you wouldn't be able to stand up against it!"

Drew blushed at the close contact but quickly turned his head away to hide it, "oh really?"

"Yeah!"

"Then how about this, you battle me. You win, I give you something. But if I win, you have to give me something."

May was now doubtful on his offer but decided to go ahead with it.

"Glaceon, take the stage!" May sent out her Pokemon.

"Let's go Absol" And Drew did the same.

"Start it off with Flash," and a bright light blinded Drew's competition.

"Close your eyes and send an Ice Shard in front of you," May said in a tone low so that neither Drew or his Absol could hear, but loud enough for Glaceon who sent the attack immediately.

Drew opened his eyes to find his Absol hit and panting hard on the ground.

"Absol!" He shouted, but his dark type fainted on the spot. He didn't want to admit it so that's what he went with.

They recalled their Pokemon and became inches close, "I won Drew so that means you gotta give me something."

"That isn't right," he said sternly.

"Of course. I haven't just been in contests like you, I took up gyms as well like my father!"

"Is that so? And how many badges do you have?"

"Five!" May replied proudly and held up her badge case with her badges sparkling in the sunlight.

"Hmph, as a matter of fact I have also taken up gym battling recently.

"Recently? I've been doing it for weeks now. Well I have to get going if I want to keep up," she said and turned to leave.

"With me?"

"No with my schedule!"

"Not so fast Red," he grabbed her wrist.

"What?"

"I have to give you something remember?"

"Oh yeah," she extended her hand, "so what is it?"

Drew gladly took her hand and pulled her towards him, he placed a fluffy kiss on her lips. One that would feel imprinted on hers for a long time.

He left her there with a stunned expression on her face and a cocky one on his.

"Till next time May," he whispered to himself.
