RECAP: "Good night love" he whispered not wanting to ruin an evening that could not have gone more right.
"Good night," May said, "Oh and can you tell Drew that I would have taken advantage of the opportunity if Team Rocket hadn't showed." And with that she walked inside.
"Maybe I was wrong" Drew murmured, "Tonight just got a whole lot better."
CHAPTER THREE: Running inside, May leaned against the door and heaved a sigh and slid to the ground. She had (no duh) lied to her mother saying she did not care about what was happening with Drew. She missed him badly.
"MOM time to get my contesting outfit ready, I am entering the Petalburg contest and will win!" she yelled standing up and punching a fist into the air!
At the Petalburg contest:
Chest puffed out, staring straight ahead May made her way to the contest dressing room. Along the way she was shocked to find that people who saw her pointed and stared… Brushing it off, she continued to walk running into a little girl about 10.
"A-a-are y-you M-may?" she stuttered.
"Yes I am, are you lost?" May asked concerned about the seemingly lost child, in the back of her mind wondering how she knew her name.
"No, I'm n-not. I-I was wondering I-if you would s-sign m-my program"
Looking around her, May noticed that there was a small group gathering. "S-sure" she, like the child, stammered now shy by the crowd of onlookers. "What's your name sweetie?"
A smile spread as the little girl announced that her name was Rose. May signed the program and then handing it to Rose she silently studied the child. She looked like someone and May could not put her finger on it. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a flash of green and purple. Harley. Before she could duck into the safety of the dressing room he saw her.
"May Darling! It's been too long" Harley yelled running over to her, causing more people to stop and stare, some even flashing pictures.
"h-hi Harley" May stammered confused they were NOT friends.
"So did you hear that dreadful little lettuce head that we competed against is here again." Harley gushed, "what was his name? Brew?"
"Drew"
"Right! Anyways lettuce head is here and he wants my ribbon! How dreadful!" Harley complained slinging he arm over May's shoulders, causing her to flinch. "Oh look there he is! Drew darling it's been too long" Harley skipped over to Drew dragging May along with him.
"Harley, what are you doing with May?"
"Oh don't be jealous darling, we were just going out on a date!"
"We are!" May asked shocked.
"Oh honey don't worry, we can tell Drew about our undying romance. He is in fact our greatest friend." Gushed Harley before firmly planting a kiss on May's lips. When he finally let go, Drew was gone.
"Harley! Why did you do that?" May cried.
"Simple sweetheart," he growled in mock sweetness. " to make your little Drew jealous so that I can win the Petalburg ribbon."
END of chapter 3.
What will become of Drew and May? Who is that familiar little girl? To be continued… can't promise when though.
