Are you guys mad that May's so dense? ;) Well, I'm sorry.
Here's chapter 14!
I lied on the bed in my room at the Pokemon Center. I just finished my shower and Brendan went out to buy us dinner so right now. I'm bored. Not really bored, but I have many thought in my head. I don't want to forget them so I guess I'll just right them down.
Taking out my cell phone, I went to the notes and made the title: HINTS.
Drew gave me a red rose. On the Internet it said that red roses mean love. So Drew must love me (because he gives me them all the time)
But Drew always says that the roses are for Beautifly.
Except that Drew said that this rose is a hint so that must mean it has something to do with the love meaning.
Kissing must always have a meaning unless stupid Drew is messing with me (but hopefully he isn't I'm going to kill him if he is). Maybe Drew…
Brendan said that Drew wants to be something more than friends.
The only thing that is bothering me is that I'm dating Brendan right now.
The door burst open and Brendan came in with a plastic food. "Chinese takeout food," he said, placing it on the table. I nodded and went to get some. We ate in silence and Brendan tossed away his plastic plate and stared at me. "May?"
"What?" I said, taking a sip of water.
"Nothing," Brendan said. I shrugged and finished my food. "Do you need to shower?" he asked after a few minutes. I shook my head.
"I already did," I said. "Before you came back."
"Then I'm going to go shower," he said, opening the bathroom door. "About 30 minutes."
My eyes widened. What guy showers for 30 minutes? "Seriously Brendan? Thirty minutes?"
"Shut up," Brendan said. "After I shower let's sleep." I nodded and Brendan walked into the bathroom. I was already in my pajamas but I didn't want to stay in the room. I got up and left my room and went to the main floor.
"Hello May," Nurse Joy said. "What are you doing here? It's already late. Do you need something?"
I shook my head. "I'm just bored so I went to go walk around."
"You can go get a drink over there," Nurse Joy said, pointing to a table that had some cookies, juice and iced water. "But don't eat too many sweets."
"Pfft," I said. "Thanks Nurse Joy." She nodded and I went to go get some iced water. I sat on a couch and drank my water.
oOo. Normal Point of View .oOo
Drew went to get some water since his water bottle was empty. He saw May and tapped her shoulder. "Oh hey Drew!"
"Good evening," he said. "Isn't it past your bed time?"
She glared at the green-haired boy. "Oh shut up Drew. You're only two months older than me."
"I'm still older than you," he said.
"I don't care," May said, rolling her eyes. Drew refilled his water bottle and took a cookie. May stared at him. "I thought you don't like cookies."
"What?" Drew asked after swallowing. "Where did you hear that?"
"I don't know!" she said. "It's just kind of strange to imagine you munching on cookies."
"How?" he asked.
May shrugged. "Don't you think it's weird seeing the great Drew munching on cookies during the night? In his pajamas?" May laughed and Drew smirked.
Snap!
"What?" May said, turning around. She saw a person with a camera and another man with a notepad and pencil. "Wait. Did you two people just take a picture of us?"
"Awkward," Drew said.
May nodded. "Creepy."
The one with the notepad chuckled. "Sorry. I'm Mark, working for the magazine 'Coordinator's Life.'"
"Oh that magazine?" May said. "The one that always spreads rumors? The magazine that always lies? My friends hate that magazine." Drew elbowed her stomach. "Ow!"
"Quit being rude May," Drew said. May rolled her eyes.
"We don't lie," Mark said. "Anyways, can I ask you two questions?"May opened her mouth and Mark smiled. "Thanks! Now sit down."
"What the heck," May mumbled and Drew laughed. Mark and the camera man sat on the couch across from them.
"First question," he said. "How long have you two known each other?"
May looked at Drew so he could answer. "Four years," Drew said. "I met her when she was still a noob trainer."
"Excuse me for starting as a noob," May said. Drew laughed again and May rolled her eyes. The camera man snapped another picture.
Mark wrote down the answer under the question he wrote down. Then he wrote the second question and looked up and the two. "Second question: have you guys ever traveled together?"
"Only if we accidentally meet up and we're heading to the same place," May said.
That's all? Mark thought, disappointed. He scribbled something else on the notepad under question two. "Third question: have you two kissed before?"
"No," May said immediately. Mark raised an eyebrow and Drew smirked at May. "Right Drew?"
"Yep," Drew said, flipping his hair.
"Last question," Mark said, writing 'yes' under question three. "Are you two in a relationship?"
May rolled her eyes. Drew answered, "Nope. Though May probably wants to be in a relationship." May glared at him.
"As if!" she exclaimed. The camera took another picture and May glared at the camera man.
Mark scribbled some stuff on his notepad and smiled. "Thank you for your time. I hope you two check out the next 'Coordinator's Life' magazine."
"Wait, am I going to be in it?" May asked.
"You were already in it before but yes," Mark said. "Goodbye." Mark and the camera man left the Pokemon Center. May was shocked.
"UGGH," May said. "What the hell!"
Drew laughed. "That's sad. Well, good night May."
"Good night Drew," May said. He waved and May drank the rest of her water. She tossed the paper cup and went up the stairs to her room. She threw herself on the bed, waiting for Brendan to get out of the bathroom.
oOo. May's Point of View .oOo
Do you think that Drew wants to be more than best friends? Don't you think that Drew wants to be something more than that?
Those words that Brendan told me. I never thought about that. When we were rivals, I knew that we should have been something more and Drew knew it too. So then I thought: best friends.
But is the answer really best friends?
The bathroom door opened. Brendan came out and steam left the bathroom. "Did you leave the room May?" Brendan asked. I nodded.
"Because I was bored," I said. "I'm tired now; I want to sleep."
Brendan nodded. He rubbed the towel on his brown hair and went under the covers. "Good night May."
"Good night Brendan," I said. I turned off the lamp next to my bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, I woke up to hear my cell phone was ringing. I checked the ID name but it was an unknown number. "Hello?" I said, rubbing my eyes.
"MAY!" a voice screamed that nearly made my ears bleed.
"What the?" I said. "Who is this?"
"It's me DAWN!" the voice yelled.
"How the hell did you get my number?" I asked.
"From Misty!" she yelled.
My eyes widened. "How'd Misty get my number?"
"When I asked her that," Dawn said. "She said she got it from Leaf who got it from Gary who got it from Ash who got it from Brock who got it from Solidad who got it from Drew!" I let all those names sink into my brain and thank goodness, I know all those people.
"Okay…" I said. "Anyways why'd you call me?"
"Well the reason is because of the magazine!" Dawn yelled.
"Magazine?" I repeated.
"Coordinator's Life!" she said.
"Oh that," I said. "What about it?"
"It said on page 51," Dawn said, pausing. "It said that you and Drew are dating!"
My eyes widened, No, this is not happening. No, no, no, no, no! "WHAT?" I yelled. "Read the whole page to me." I ordered.
Dawn squeaked. "No way! It's too long. Go buy it at the Pokemart, it's only a dollar!"
"Ugh," I said, slapping my forehead. "Well, thanks for telling me Dawn. Bye."
"WAIT!" Dawn yelled. "Is it true?" I ignored her and hung up. I shook Brendan's shoulders until his eyes opened.
"Brendan!" I yelled. "Give me a dollar!"
Brendan frowned. "What? Why?"
"Just give it to me!" I yelled in his face.
"Go change your clothes first," he said. I growled. I grabbed my clothes, ran to the bathroom and changed. "Now give it to me!" I said after exiting the bathroom. Brendan stuck his hand in his bag and took out a dollar. "Thanks!"
"Yeah," Brendan said, falling back asleep. I ran to the Pokemart as fast as I could and opened the door. I could hear people whispered and I took the magazine from the shelf.
"Here," I said, giving the cashier a dollar. He nodded and I walked out of the Pokemart, sitting on a bench. I flipped to page 51. The page had the pictures of us in our pajamas, laughing and smiling. Those were probably the pictures that stupid camera man took.
Last night at the Pokemon Center, the media spotted May Maple and Drew Hayden, the famous and very strong coordinators having a nice chat while eating refreshments. It was 10:30pm, why would the two be having a chat this late?
When Mark asked how long these two knew each other, Drew Hayden answered, "Four years. I met her when she was still a noob trainer." So the two coordinators have met when they first started! They've known each other for four years, they would already be in a relationship, don't you think?
Well they are. The second question was do they travel together? May Maple answered, "Sometimes. Only when we accidentally meet up and we're heading to the same place. It's also really fun to hang out together." The third question was have the two ever kissed? May Maple answered the question again. "No," she said almost immediately. Something's fishy. Why would she answer that quickly? That must mean she's lying.
Fourth question and the biggest question: Are the two in a relationship?
"We are," Drew Hayden said with a smirk on his face. "We were dating since last week. I love having May being my adorable girlfriend."
"Shut up Drew," May Maple had said. "But yes, we are dating."
My eyes widened. What a liar! I knew I shouldn't have gotten involved with this magazine! "May," Drew's voice came. "Solidad told me."
"Yeah," I said. "Dawn told me. Now a whole bunch of people know my number." I got my cell phone and added Dawn to my contact list.
Drew laughed. "Sorry."
"Anyways," I said, showing Drew the magazine. "What are we going to do about this? I mean it's not—" I was interrupted by a large group of girls squealing and surrounding Drew.
"Drewy!" some girl yelled. "How could you date her?"
"Yeah!" some other girl whined. "I'm so much better!"
Another girl laughed. "Why would you date that ugly! She's not pretty at all. You should find some other girl that's better—like me!"
"No me!"
"Me!"
"No, what about me!"
"What are you talking about, me!"
"Drewy is for everyone!"
Drew, who was pissed, grabbed my hand and ran away as fast as possible. "Ow!" I yelled. "Drew, you're gripping my wrist too tight!"
He let go and looked at me. "May, what do you intend to do about the rumor?"
I smirked. "Hahahaha. I'm going to go to their company and murder than man named Mark."
"Pfft," Drew said. "Anyways—"
"MAY!"
Drew and I turned to the voice's direction and you couldn't guess: it was Brendan. "What Brendan?" I asked.
"This magazine!" Brendan said, showing her the magazine.
I rolled my eyes. "It's not true."
"What's up with these pictures?" he asked. "Did you go out to see Drew when I was sleeping?" Drew laughed.
"No," I said. "I went to the lobby when you were showering because I was bored. Then some guy named Mark asked us questions and he…"
"Mark lied," Drew said simply.
"What he said," I said.
Brendan raised an eyebrow. "That's all?"
I nodded. "That's all."
"But May," Brendan said. "Do you wish to be with Drew?"
My heart stopped. "Why would you say that…?" Drew sighed.
"Well," Drew said. "Now that I have nothing to do in this city… I'm leaving. Bye."
"Wait Drew!" I yelled.
He turned around. "What May?"
I blushed. Why did I call him? "No…it's nothing."
Drew smirked and tossed me a rose. "See you around."
Wow.
Okay, you're going to like the next chapter, I promise. Let me show you part of it:
"My dad video phoned me," he said.
"And…" I said, crossing my arms.
"Dad sent my friend over to watch me," Brendan muttered.
"How much longer till that person gets here?" I asked.
He shrugged. "About now."
"BRENDAN!" a girlish voice squealed. I looked up to see a girl with wavy, long dark brown hair, green eyes and pale skin. Let's just say she was a beauty. The girl blushed and hugged him. "I missed you so much!" I raised an eyebrow at Brendan, who was blushing madly.
Yeah. Excited, no?
Well, review!
