I had another dream last night, unusually realistic afterimage

It's all clear to me now..

I will be dreaming again tonight, feel so good

"I'll go now" Drew says then continues walking

Like a déjà vu of heaven, yeah

I want to call him back..

I can't remember it so clearly

and tell him but with how he looked at me earlier

My determination to "become a star" is the only thing that remained

[sighs]

I'm going to bed early tonight, there's a scenery I want to find

I will keep that aside..

Am I chasing my dream or being chased by it?*

Our personal priorities should be put first

Every day goes by so fast

"So that's why" Brock says

Chasing? Or being chased? I open my eyes

"Drew isn't that bad" Max commented "Well He's got an attitude sometimes"

Before my eyes, oh, oh

I was fixated on him that I didnt notice theyre already beside me

So in my drеam, dream, dream, oh, oh

Well, it was natural to act surprised..

So I met you in my drеam, dream, dream

Was it?

Too real to call it magic

Do they even know?

If this were a reality, it'd be overwhelming

Wait, What is there to know? We're just..

Time, vibes, temperature, you, yes, my everything

Just...

I finally met, so everything I saw in my dream, dream, dream, oh, oh

So it's not a dream, dream, dream

[Fast Forward]

[Ash lost ]

Theyre taking a break at the Pokemon Center

Professor Oak visits Ash and gives him something to cheer him up coming from his previous Pokemon

He somehow cheered up a bit

Oak mentions Gary, his childhood rival

I remember that I was (Was) floating in my dream (Dream)

Rivals, huh?

Hopping on zero gravity to fly to the sky on a ride

"He said that he expected you to be there"

I have passed by countless stars

Ash suddenly feels hyped

But there isn't a single one that didn't shine

Rivals..

There isn't a single one that wasn't precious

I tried convincing myself thats.. just how we are

Everything that I promised in my dream

"Hey guys, its surprising to see you here"

I recalled each one and prayed for it to come true

"D-Drew??"

So that I draw it in my sketchbook tonight

[...]

"Funny.. Just when i was thinking about you, You magically appears.."

Every day goes by so fast

"Thinking about me??"

Chasing? Or being chased? I open my eyes

[tug]

Before my eyes, oh, oh

"N-Not the way you thought it is!!"

So in my dream, dream, dream, oh, oh

Wait, what was he even thinking when he said that?

Too real to call it magic

Should i ask him?

If this were a reality, it'd be overwhelming

"W-Well, earlier, theyre talking about Ash's rival, Gary, so naturally i'd start thinking about"

Time, vibes, temperature, you, yes, my everything

Liar, May, You're one big liar

*I finally met, so everything I saw in my dream, dream, dream, oh, oh

"So how are you doing these recent days?"

So it's not a dream, dream, dream*

...

"So, how have you been doing after the loss?"

"Alright. I guess. How about you after your loss?"

"Guess I've been doing what any coordinator does- after a loss I mean. They make sure all of their Pokemon are well taken care of,"

He stares at me and smiles

"and hopefully with a new friend."

N-New.. Friend?

What is he talking about??

"You're still holding onto your loss to Solidad aren't you?"

...

"That mean's you've discovered your weak point, but now I bet you're not too sure what you can do to overcome it."

How does he know??

"Tell the truth. Am I close?"

I only nodded

I dont know how to express myself, Now that he's here next to me and we're.. alone together

"Okay then *stands up* I think we should have a battle"

"H-Huh? Drew what for?"

" I dunno. It's just, sense we've got this great stage and everything… I think after the Grand Festival it would clear the air"

[Ash and the gang cheers her when she starts hesitating]

"Okay, it's a deal! I'm not going easy on you!"

"Now there's a surprise"

[fast forward]

[After the battle]

see things differently now. Thanks to you…

"Drew..."

[Alone in the Sunset]

"I thought that I'd caught up to you, but you pulled away again!"

"Well you gotta keep moving I guess."

I turned towards him

"Know what? I was getting a little over confident, which I realize is no way for a Top Coordinator to be, that's for sure"

He was just looking at me, smiling

"This battle made me realize a lot of things! Remember when you told me you needed to find a battling style that was yours and only yours? Well I want to find my own style to and show off my Pokemon a lot better then I do now... All my own way with no one else."

"Good to hear that" He says

We proceed on staring at the sunset together..

The sun is going down, we're too close and We're alone.. again

Should I tell him..

"Why do you look hasty, May?"

E-Eh?? How can he read?

"I have been noticing how Hasty you look after we had a warm up battle"

I fidgeted my fingers and breathes deeply

"S-So, could you tell.."

"Hmm?"

"To be honest, Drew.. I"

I'm pretty sure about it

Drew looks at me as my eyes stares sharply at him while trying to put these thoughts into words

I always feel like I have to follow what my heart has been telling me

[and suddenly the wind blows]

"Drew..."

I.. I...

"I want to.. BATTLE WITH YOU"

[Drew gives a surprised expression]

That is not, May..

"I.. I WANT TO TEST MY SKILLS AND.."

Drew just smiles and pokes my head

"Sure.. I'll look forward to that.."

I have never felt this happy

"Guess I'll go now"

Wait, he's leaving me?

"Where are you going Drew?"

"Heading to Johto and join some contests"

Already?

Can you stay for another short while?

Because.. I am not sure when will I see you again...

"The next time I catch up with you I'll expect to see your new style, okay?" Then he starts walking off

"It's a deal" [cries] "Take care! See you soon! And thank you for everything!"

I missed another chance again..

I thought it was the perfect time to tell him..

[...]

Why can't I bring myself to tell him? What's wrong with me? Why am i hesitating?

Is it because..

[...]

Sometimes, I hate how I'm feeling

I'm sure about what I feel for him but, I'm uncertain if he feels the same

]

I'm scared..

[...]

Because to be honest, I am in no par with him

I'm still far away from his level..

No amount of sugar coating can change that..

Wait..

While contemplating.. I noticed that I am holding a rose, a glistening red one

Since when did...

[Smells the Rose and ganders at it]

Whatever this wants to say.. I'll..

[Keeps the Rose in her pouch]

I'll accept it

I'm not confused anymore..

and I am more determined..

Tomorrow, I'll start another beginning

"Drew.."

To see you, in another level of our lives and perhaps..

[End]
