Ending
Drew's POV
Max pounded harshly against the window, yelling all sorts of threats at me for kissing his sister. I reluctantly pulled away. I was not liking the sorts of things that he was saying and I'd like none of them to come true.
"I swear, if this is what your brother is like, I'm not going to meet your dad," I whispered.
"Alright then," she giggled, "let's get out of here."
"Could you maybe get them to go and then come back for me?" I asked, "I'm actually scared of what your brother plans to do to me."
"Don't be a wuss," she laughed.
"I dunno, some of those threats sound pretty nasty," I said, pressing my forehead to hers.
"You know you're only making them worse by displaying this much affection for me," she said bluntly.
"Who said I was affectionate?" I questioned, pushing her away. She pouted cutely at me. I gave in.
"Oh Arceus are you trying to get your brother to kill me," I muttered, pulling her in for a quick kiss.
"No," she giggled, "but come on or you'll make it worse." She took my hand in hers and practically dragged me into the sub, pulling me into the seat next to her.
"Finally!" Brock exclaimed.
"Drew!" Max yelled, his fists clenched. He looked like he was ready to explode.
"Um…Hi Max," I said, waving to him.
"Not now Max," Brock said, "I'd like to make it back to the ship with everyone in one piece please." May yawned and rested her head on my shoulder.
"I'm tired," she mumbled.
"Don't sleep yet," I laughed, "We're so close to the ship." I didn't get a response.
"May?" Nothing. I looked at her and chuckled. She'd fallen asleep. The sub docked and I picked May up.
"We need to talk Drew," Max growled as he brushed passed me.
"Let me put May to bed first," I said.
"I'll be waiting on the deck," he said. I winced slightly.
"Ok." Why did I do that? I was basically agreeing to my death.
May's POV
I slowly opened my eyes. I'd had a really good sleep. Huh? I was in my bed. I guess Drew had taken me to my room. I frowned. Where was he?
"Hey you're awake," Misty said. I turned and blinked. Beside me was Misty and Jackie.
"Hey guys," I said, "What are you doing in here?"
"Well apart from the fact that Drew made me watch over to make sure that nothing went wrong," Jackie said, "I also needed to talk to you and Misty here wanted to do the same."
"Ok," I said, sitting up, "What do you guys need to say?"
"I needed to talk to you about Drew," Jackie said, "You know what you're doing?"
"Of course I do," I replied.
"Well, if you're going to be dating him," Jackie started, "You know all the dangers. You know the dangers of dating a Pokémon ranger?" I blushed slightly.
"Well, in case you haven't noticed, I'm the younger sea princess," I reminded him, "I'll always be in some sort of danger, whether I date a Pokémon ranger or not."
"Good call," he said, "but I just wanted to make sure you know that. And you know Drew will have to leave often for missions, sometimes ones that can go for a long time." I hadn't even thought of that. I thought for a moment.
"I'm prepared to deal with that," I told him, "I won't get in the way of his work."
"You won't be upset at that?" Jackie questioned.
"Well, truthfully it might take a while to get used to," I said honestly, "but I trust Drew and I'll eventually get used to it. I guess it'll just make the time I spend with him more special." Jackie looked at Misty and she nodded.
"Well congrats May," Jackie said, "I think you're pretty suitable for my brother."
"Huh?"
"Gee May," he said, rolling his eyes, "I'm Drew's brother. I gotta make sure that the girl he dates is right."
"Um…Thanks?" I said.
"I'm glad you passed though," Jackie said, "you seem like you could be a pretty good sister-in-law." I blushed furiously.
"I'm 17!" I squeaked, "I'm not even thinking of that at this point."
"It's just a future possibility," Jackie shrugged, "Now I'll let Misty talk to you now." I blushed furiously.
"Did he have to do that?" I groaned, "That's pretty embarrassing."
"Well if he didn't, I would've," Misty shrugged, "like he said, gotta make sure that your in-laws are suitable and easy to get along with." I blushed.
"Ok what did you want to say to me?" I asked, worried for what she was going to say.
"Actually, I'm not going to talk about Drew," she sighed, "this is about Manaphy and other things to do with being the princess."
"What about Manaphy?" I asked, "Oh my gosh, I forgot to take him from Samiya!"
"That's ok," Misty sighed, "He's right here." She held out a Pokéball.
"Misty, what?" I asked stupidly, "I thought he had to stay at the temple?"
"Well, if it was any other generation, he would've," Misty explained, "but you see, there are two sea princesses, which means there are two Manaphys as well. Yours is the younger and so you can keep him." I squealed and took the Pokéball excitedly.
"I caught him for you," she said, smiling slightly, "It was easy really. I asked if he'd like to stay with you forever and he agree. I held out the Pokéball and he pressed the button, kind of catching himself."
"Thanks so much Misty," I said, "now what about the other Manaphy?"
"He's already in the temple," she said, "He's got to look after it and lead the Pokémon while we go about our own business in our lives. Now what I really need to tell you is that as sea princess, even the younger one, you still have responsibilities."
"Ok, what do I do?" I asked.
"You have to come back to the sea every year for a ritual to keep the ocean in harmony," she told me, "Don't worry, I'll explain it all when the time come, but just know that every year on the total lunar eclipse, you need to be at the temple."
"How do I find it?" I asked.
"You have the sense," Misty laughed, "you can find the sea temple anywhere, any time. Just follow what your instinct is telling you. Now, I have to go back to bed. Ash would freak out if he found out that I'm up." I laughed.
"I know," Misty giggled, "I didn't think Ash was that paranoid either, but apparently he is. I told him that my headache was gone, but he still insists that I rest."
"Hang on, before you go, one more thing," I called, "do you know where Drew is?"
"Well, last I saw, he went to go see Max. Apparently Max really needed to talk to him about you," Misty giggled slightly, "Max is so protective. He's out on the deck. You might want to go rescue Drew." I nodded and left my room with her.
When I saw them, I almost would've laughed. Max had cornered Drew against the rail. Right then, he was poking Drew in the chest with his finger. I had better go rescue him. Drew looked really uncomfortable.
"Hey Max," I called, "leave Drew alone."
"May!" he yelped, jerking slightly. I giggled at his surprise. Drew's eyes softened as he looked at me.
"Hey May," he said, "I'd come to you, but I'm kinda trapped." He gestured to Max, who was still standing in front of him.
"I was just leaving," Max said, scurrying away quickly. Drew chuckled and shook his head.
"Hey you ok?" I asked, "Misty told me that Max was laying into you."
"Of course I'm ok," he snorted, "Why wouldn't I be ok?"
"You just seemed kind of nervous before," I said, "to be around Max."
"He's just really protective," Drew chuckled, "and really what Max said wasn't so bad."
"What did he say?" I asked.
"Just went through the rules and responsibilities of being your boyfriend," he replied.
"There are rules and responsibilities to dating me?" I questioned, "I think Max went overboard."
"Don't worry," he chuckled, "they were just things like don't you dare hurt her, protect her or else, if you hurt her in any way I'll kill you, you know standard things like that."
"Oh ok," I giggled.
"I think I got the point though," he said cheekily, "don't hurt you or I'm a dead man."
"Don't be dramatic," I sighed. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close. I hadn't even realized that he had come close enough to reach me.
"Oh I think I can be," he said, "your brother told me I have to meet your dad ASAP. Apparently your family is very serious about this."
"Well, if it makes you feel any better, Jackie put me through a test, though I don't think it was half as bad as what my brother said," I told him.
"Oh he did, did he?" Drew questioned, his eyebrows raised, "and what did Jackie say?"
"Just made sure I knew what dating you would mean," I shrugged.
"And what does dating me mean?" he questioned, pressing his forehead against mine.
"That I love you," I answered.
"Somehow I don't think that's what he said," Drew chuckled, "but that's good to know as well."
"I love you Drew," I repeated.
"I heard," he said, grinning.
"Drew!" I exclaimed.
"Ok, ok, I love you too," he said. He leaned closer and I closed my eyes. I heard the sound of a Pokémon releasing itself and Drew stopped.
'Mana!' Manaphy cried, 'Mana, mama, dada.' I pulled away from him and bent down to pick up the newest addition to my team.
"Why does something always have to interrupt me?" Drew groaned.
"Hush Drew," I giggled, "Manaphy's probably just not used to a Pokéball yet."
"Wait, I thought he had to stay behind," Drew said.
"No," I replied, "there's an older Manaphy, just like there's an older sea princess and so I get to keep my little baby."
"Well that's good," Drew said, "but you don't think Manaphy would mind if I kissed you?"
"No Drew," I said firmly, "Manaphy doesn't need to see something like that. No kissing me when Manaphy's around."
"Can we put him back in the ball then?" Drew asked, "Because as much as I like the little Pokémon, I really want to kiss you right now."
"Hmm, no," I hummed, teasingly, "Manaphy has spent enough time in the Pokéball."
"Hey Manaphy," Drew called, "come here." Manaphy jumped from my arms to his. Drew turned to the water.
"You can play in the water," Drew told him, "just stay close to the ship." Manaphy excitedly jumped into the water.
"There," Drew said, "Now Manaphy's not around..." He trailed off and swung me into his body. He brushed a piece of hair from my face and leaned down again. I closed my eyes and…
"Hey guys!"
"Are you serious?" Drew groaned.
A/N: And this one is done. I don't know whether I should be feeling relieved or sad or happy or what? So my next project is going to be another parody movie of 'Lucario and the Mystery of Mew' so if you liked this, look out for it. It's called Aura and Mew. I still haven't quite figured out some details for the plot of the sequel to Roses, Sabotage and Drew, but I'm working on it and I might be able to start that soon as well. I'm also still open to suggestion to other episodes or movies you'd like me to put a twist to. Just leave the names of the episode/movie and I'll see what I can do. I still only do couples I support so if you are unsure please either check out my profile or PM me. I'll be happy to tell you. I also just want to say thank you for all those who have supported this story and encouraged me with the reviews. It means a lot and you guys are all amazing. :)
