Hey guys! Happy New Year! So I posted a winter oneshot and a Christmas oneshot last week. The winter oneshot is a Contestshipping called 'Skating.' My Christmas oneshot is called 'Last Christmas.' It's my first attempt of Oldrivalshipping. :) I love Drew's cousin April. I actually was thinking of a name and April randomly popped into my head. Maybe because May's a month name too. I don't know.
And I think May has three ribbons so far… wow I need to be more organized.
Asefiou anwpe8ru awghawl48orao lksjhg I SUCK AT WRITING POKEMON BATTLES.
Chapter 21 is up!
I blinked. Did Drew just…um, confess? He stared at me and I shifted uncomfortably. I'm not ready for this. I just broke up with my boyfriend and I'm still getting over it. I turned away from his emerald eyes and I started to think about what to say. Luckily, the speaker came up. "All contestants, please go to the lobby, the contest is starting in five minutes."
I looked at Drew. "We need to go to the lobby!" I exclaimed, turning to run.
Drew grabbed my wrist. "We have five minutes."
"Yeah so we have to get there!" I said. "And I have to think about my appeal again. Come on!" he didn't move. "We can… continue this next time?" I said, making it sound like a question. I mean, what can I say? I'm not ready. He should know that…
Drew smirked. "You don't like me back right?" I bit my lip. "You just aren't ready; you don't want to be in a relationship right now and still getting over Brendan." Damn, Drew knew me so well. I nodded and he let go. "Okay, let's go."
"Yeah," I said awkwardly. We started walked back to the yard and turning to the door.
"Don't think I'll be easy on you," he said, flipping his hair. I was pretty relieved he just let the whole thing off so I didn't have to be stressed. "And I'm not going to let you win."
"I'm not going to let you win," I said, punching his arm. He laughed and we entered the building. Luckily we made it in time, because Drew was up first. Drew got up on stage, smirked, and flipped his hair. I heard a billion screams (that were fan girls) and I swear I heard a 'thud!' somewhere in the audience.
Vivian sweatdropped. "Okay, moving on!" she said into the microphone. "Drew Hayden, the stage is yours!"
Drew nodded and threw a Pokeball. "Let's go Flygon," he said calmly. He caught the Pokeball easily and fangirls awed. "Let's do this!"
I rolled my eyes while watching the appeal. It was beautiful… and of course Drew managed to get a thirty. He came back and I smirked. "That was just pure luck," I said to him.
"No," he said. "It's skill, talent and charm."
"Charm?" I repeated. I laughed. "Whatever." The speaker called my name. "Well, bye." I winked at him and he turned away from me. I started laughing, he must have been embarrassed. I put out my Glaceon and did my appeal.
I stared at the TV screen. I got a twenty five point five. I sighed and walked back into the waiting room. I saw Drew smirking at me and I narrowed my eyes. "I see you got way better than me, May," Drew said, flipping his hair. I glared at him.
"Shut up Mr. Rose," I said to him. "I'll probably get chosen for the contest anyways."
"How are you so confident?" he asked.
"Because I always get in," I said, rolling my eyes.
Drew flipped his hair. "Remember May, over-confidence will make you fail contests."
"Yeah?" I said to him. "Look who's talking." I turned around and I saw April. "Hey April."
April grinned. "Did he say it?" I blushed when she said that and gave her a small moon. "Really? What was your response?" I sighed. "What? You didn't give him a reply?"
"I couldn't help it," I said. "It was so sudden. I just broke up with my boyfriend, and he knew that. I'm still trying to get over him too. I don't want to be in another relationship right now."
"Oh," she said. "That's okay. Drew's going to be patient… but soon enough you'll have to say it soon. Men are…"
"I know," I said, smiling. I heard Vivian announce April's name. "Good luck."
"Yeah," April said, winking. She left to the stage. I watched her from the TV. "Okay. Let's go Gengar!" she yelled. I laughed quietly to myself. Figures she has a Gengar since April is so evil and sneaky. "Night shade!" she commanded.
Shades surrounded Gengar and he started doing weird tricks with it. The audience gasped. It was freaky. But it is a ghost type after all. "Now bring it together and hit it with a shadow punch!" she yelled to him. Dark shades burst up into the sky and it sprinkled down.
She got a total score of twenty nine point five. April came back and she grinned at me. "Are you sure you'll be able to pass with a score twenty five point five? Good luck May."
I grit my teeth. "You are just like Drew."
"I am his cousin," April said, shrugging. "It's funny how both of our names are month names, right?"
"Yeah it is," I agreed. "We're a little alike too."
"Our faces are somewhat alike too," April said. "And you love eating right?" I nodded. "Me too! Don't you love noodles?"
"Yeah!" I said. "I went to one with Ash and they were soo good."
April grinned. "Oh my gosh May. We should totally hang out sometime. We'll go to the best buffets and cafes! Then we'll attend some eating contests."
I rolled my eyes. "Eating contests? You think you could win?" I laughed. "I am a master at eating contests. You don't stand a chance."
"Mhmm," April said. "I've won three eating contests. I was against this huge fat guy too."
"I've won three too!" I grinned.
"Now the top fourteen contestants will proceed to the next round!" the emcee interrupted. "Look up at the screen for your picture. For those who didn't make it, we're sorry! You'll have to try next time!" I stared at the TV and Drew was the first picture to appear. I turned my head to look at him and our eyes met. I blushed and turned my head back to the TV screen. April was second, and I was the ninth person listed.
I sighed in relief. April laughed and said, "Don't worry May. There were a lot of noobs here so it was obvious you were going to make it."
"Then it should be pretty easy to get to the final round," I said.
"Let's pair up everyone now!" Vivian said. Everyone's picture was turned around and they paired them up. I turned to see who mine was and it was a coordinator I didn't know. I smirked. This was going to be easy.
Line goes here
I was on the second to last round. Guess who I was against? His name starts with a D, he has green hair, he's stupid, arrogant, perfect, hot, immortal body… what the hell am I thinking? I can't believe someone like him confessed to me! I mean, Drew's like, flawless.
I didn't notice I was staring at him until he spoke. "What are you staring at, May?" Drew asked, smirking. "I know I'm hot and all, but no need to stare." I blushed furiously.
Vivian coughed. "You can flirt later, Mr. Hayden," I swore I saw Drew blushed. "Let's start! Five minutes on the clock… are starting now!"
"Go Absol," Drew said, throwing out his Absol.
"Glaceon, take the stage!" I said. My Glaceon appeared, bowing toward the audience. "Glaceon, tackle!"
Drew started to laugh. I know when Absol dodges, he steps to the left. He always does that and no one noticed. "Dodge, Absol."
"Great!" I yelled. "Shadow ball!" shadow ball was a direct hit and Absol fell. "Do icy wind!"
"Get up Absol!" Drew yelled. Absol was probably freezing, but he got up anyways. "Do razor wind!" Absol's horn started glowing and he took a few steps toward Glaceon.
I sighed. "Glaceon double team!" I yelled.
"Look for the real one Absol!" Drew said. Absol turned from the real Glaceon.
"Glaceon dig!" I yelled quickly. She dug underground and hit Absol from below. Wow, this was so easy. I've battled Absol so many times. Drew has battled Glaceon a lot and he still doesn't know my techniques? "Ice beam," I said.
"Get up Absol," Drew said calmly.
"Can you still keep your cool, Drew?" I yelled. "I know Absol can. Glaceon, blizzard!"
Drew started laughing. "That was such a lame joke, May." Drew shouldn't be teasing me right now because ¾ of his points are gone. I still had all my points.
"What's wrong with Drew?" Vivian said. "One minute on the clock!"
I grinned. I was feeling great, Drew's so pathetic! "Frost breath!"
"That's a new one," Drew said.
"No, I just haven't been using it a lot!" I said. It was a direct hit and Absol was down. I won and I returned Glaceon and exited the stage. Now I'm going to be against April. "April, you ready to battle me?" I asked.
"Of course," April said. "I'm the same level as Drew so I'll beat you."
"Then it should be easy to beat you," I said, grinning. "Since Drew was so pathetic."
"Don't be so cocky May," Drew said, walking past us. He looked into my eyes and motioned me to follow him. I gave him a confused look and he turned to the hallway.
"Um, be right back April," I said.
April nodded. "Take your time. We have fifteen minutes before the next round anyways."
Drew shoved his hands in his pockets once we were at the end of the hallway. "I want your answer."
"Is that why you lost?" I asked him. "Too distracted?"
"Yeah," Drew said sarcastically. "I couldn't stop staring at your beautiful face." Okay, that last comment did not have any tone of sarcasm. "I'm not kidding," Drew said.
"So when Vivian was saying you were flirting with me, it was true?" I asked.
Drew smirked. "What do you think?"
"I don't know," I said. "I mean, you're always talking to me like that so no. Why would you flirt with me?"
"Well what did I tell you before?" he said. I blushed.
"That's different," I said. "Confessing, teasing and flirting are completely different things."
Drew rolled his eyes. "Of course May. What I'm trying to ask you is do you know when people flirt with you?"
"Duh," I said. "I know when Brendan flirts with me. I knew when Anthony was trying to make a move on me." He frowned. "I knew when Michael was trying to kiss me. I knew Jake was trying to flirt with me because he was saying how I look hot in red."
Drew's frown was still there. "All those things happened to you?"
"I could name more if you want," I said. "Listen Drew. You're not the only one popular here. I have people who are obsessed with me." I wrinkled my nose. "Like Sam and Jake."
"Oh Sam," Drew said. "I know him. So I want to ask you: what's your answer?"
"My answer?" I repeated dumbly.
"When people confess, someone gives them their response," Drew says. "If it's a yes, they start dating. If it's a no—"
"Okay, okay," I interrupted. "Is 'I don't know' an answer?" he thought for a moment. "Because I don't know yet! You know I just broke up with my boyfriend and being in another relationship, and with my best friend too, after a break up is just way too fast."
"So are you telling me no or I don't know?" he asked.
"I don't know," I said.
Drew smirked. "Of course. Like girls could say no to me."
"Shut up," I told him, rolling my eyes.
"Can I ask one thing from you though?" he asked. I nodded. "Go on a date with me after today's contest."
"I was thinking about hanging out with April though," I said.
Drew rolled his eyes. "You can do that later. Come on, don't make me beg."
I raised my eyebrow. "Oh gosh, I want to see you beg. Drew, I want to hang out with April today so I can't go on a date with you today." Drew took out his cell phone and he dialed a number. I frowned.
"Hello?" he said. "April, can I go on a date with May today?" I blushed.
"Drew!" I yelled.
"Oh thanks April," Drew said. "Bye."
"You're mean," I said. "Damn, I really wanted to see you beg too."
Drew grinned. "You can see that in the future."
"If we're together?" I offered. He shrugged and he started walking away. "Immediately after the contest?" I called after him. "What if there's a party?"
"Yes immediately after the party," Drew said. "So you've got no time to party."
"You suck!" I whined.
April got on the stage, grinning at the audience. She's really pretty; so many boys were calling after her. She tossed her brown hair over her shoulder and she turned to me. "Ready May?"
"Whenever you're ready April," I called. She grinned and took out her Pokeball. I did the same and pulled out my Glaceon's Pokeball. "Glaceon, take the stage!"
"Come on out Seadra!" she yelled.
"And the five minutes are starting!" Vivian announced loudly. "Who'll win the final round?"
"I will!" April and I shouted at one. "I don't think so April. Glaceon, tackle!"
"Seadra, dodge it!" she commanded. Seadra is a water and dragon type Pokemon so its weakness is ice. "Now do bubblebeam!"
Seadra turned to Glaceon and tiny bubbles started coming out of its mouth. I rolled my eyes. "Use swift to pop the bubbles then do icy wind!"
"Twister!" April yelled.
"Aw shoot," I muttered. "Blizzard!"
There was a huge storm and Glaceon and Seadra fell to the ground. They were both knocked out. Vivian looked stunned. It was a really short battle. "It's a tie?" Vivian said uncertainly, looking at the judges for help. They all gave her a small nod. "Well, the winners for this contest are April and May!" there were a few giggles, probably because of our names. April grinned at me and I grinned back. This is the second time I had a tie in a contest.
Then it was the honors. The judges cut the ribbon in half. I grinned. "Yes! My fourth ribbon!"
"Mine too!" April exclaimed. "Damn May we're going to be freakin' best friends I swear."
"I know right?" I said. "Wait. I remember I have something to do… what was it again?"
April grinned cheekily. "You have a date with Drew right?" she said loudly. I wonder if April forgot we were on stage and there were hundreds of people here.
Someone who was holding a huge camera frowned. He snapped a picture of April and I and said, "May Maple, are you dating Drew Hayden?"
I shook my head wildly. "Yeah she is," April yelled.
"No I'm not April!" I said.
"Shut up May," April told me. "They're such a lovey-dovey couple." A man next to the camera man started jotting down notes. I rolled my eyes. "Now, May and I have to go. Bye!"
"Congratulations on your win!" Vivian yelled.
Once we were off the stage, I glared at April. "Why the heck did you tell everyone that?"
She frowned. "Aren't you guys dating?"
"No!"
"Then why are you guys going on a date after this?" she asked. "Besides, he confessed to you. I mean, seriously? Who would reject Drew? If I wasn't his relatives I'd be deeply in love with him already." I raised an eyebrow. "Don't get me wrong; I'm not in love with him. Oh that reminds me. Here's my cell phone number." She gave me a Post-It note with her number on it. I stuffed it in my bag.
"Whatever," I said. "Now there's going to be stories about me and Drew in magazines! Gosh April, you got me in so much trouble."
April grinned. "You could just date him and everything would be fine."
"Like I would do that!" I said. "I just broke up with my boyfriend I don't want to be in another relationship yet."
"We'll see about that," April challenged.
"Wanna bet?" I asked, raising my voice.
"Yep," April said. She grinned. "Whoever wins has to treat them at whatever food place they want. They have to pay everything."
"You're on!" I said. "I seriously want to go to that sushi bar in this city!"
"Then you'll have to win," April said.
I rolled my eyes. "What are you saying? I always win. Anyways I have to go. Bye April!" She nodded and I left.
"Hey May," Drew said. He was sitting on a bench outside with his cell phone in his hand.
"Hi Drew," I said. He smirked and I sighed. "Where are we going?"
"Movies first," he said.
"'First?'" I repeated.
He nodded. "Why not?" he took my hand and started to walk down the hall.
"Drew," I said. I really hope I'm not blushing because other people will get the wrong idea. "Drew, people's going to see us."
"So what?" he asked.
"Magazine reporters could take pictures," I said. "It'll be in the magazines. And your fan girls will attack. They will, I swear."
"Then I'll protect you," Drew said simply.
"Are you that strong?" I asked him.
He smirked. "Of course I am." I caught up with him and we were walking side-by-side, holding hands.
I smiled at him and looked at our hands. It felt so right. "Drew, did you ever have a girlfriend?" I asked. "I don't remember if I asked you this or not."
"I don't think you did," Drew said.
"Oh," I said. "So do you?" I was still staring at our hands.
"Why are you so eager to know?" he asked me, turning to look at me. "Is there something on our hands?"
"No," I said, looking up at him.
"Your face is red," he said.
"Shut up," I glared at him. "It's because my sweater is making me hot."
"So hot," Drew said.
I rolled my eyes. "Stop flirting with me."
"What the?" he said, sounding a little embarrassed. I grinned at him. "I'm not May. So why did you want to know if I had a girlfriend or not?"
"I wanted to know," I said. "That's all."
"Whatever," Drew said. "We're here. See?"
"No Drew," I said. "I don't see it." He laughed and we walked inside together. He let me pick and I was looking at all the choices. I tried to ignore the fact that we were still holding hands. "What do you want to watch Drew?"
He shrugged. "You pick."
"Okay…" I said. "I want to watch Breaking Dawn…"
Drew practically gagged and I glared at him. "Drew! You just said you'd let me pick!"
"I know," Drew said, laughing a little. "I never said you couldn't. Who knew you'd watch Breaking Dawn?"
"Fine!" I said. "Let's not watch that!"
"No it's okay," he said. "We can go watch it." Drew paid for the tickets and he got two huge bags of popcorn.
"Why'd you get two?" I asked him. "We could share one. One's already enough."
"Well you see," he started. "You're here so I have to buy two. I have no choice or else I won't get any popcorn." Drew started laughing.
"What are you implying?" I asked, picking up some popcorn and throwing it at him. "Oh look. Some flavoring for the popcorn! I want cheese."
"I like sour cream," Drew said, picking up the sour cream one. He dumped some flavors in his bag and I did the same to mine. Then we were on our way into the movie theater.
oOo . oOo
Drew and I exited the movie theater with no more popcorn. I groaned. "That was a freaking sick movie. I'm not watching that again. Who picked that movie anyways?"
"Gee May I wonder," Drew said, rolling his eyes.
"Did you even watch it?" I asked. I knew he was on his cell phone but I didn't know how long.
"No," he said. "I was texting Solidad."
I frowned. "About what? I want her number."
"Well, she has a boyfriend," Drew started. I jaw dropped. "…and it's Harley."
"What?" I shrieked. "Is that woman out of her mind? I need to have a word with her. That's fucking sick!"
"Watch your language May," Drew said, rolling his eyes. "Anyways, we're going to the arcade upstairs. They have awesome games and it's really cheap too."
"Awesome!" I said. "I love arcades. You're going to pay, right?"
"Of course. Like you have any money," Drew said.
I punched him with my free hand (yes, we're still holding hands). "Shut up!" we went up the stairs and I pointed at a game. "Look! Let's play this. I want to win that necklace."
"Weird," Drew said. "I thought most girls like teddy bears."
"Huh?" I said, confused. "What does that have to do with anything?"
He shrugged. "Don't girls ask their boyfriends to get them giant teddy bears?"
"No?" I said. "I mean, I like teddy bears but that doesn't mean you have to get them for me. Anyways, I want to play that game. All you have to do is cut fruit."
"Duh," he said. "It's called 'Fruit Ninja.'" He let go of my hand and my eyes widened. Drew gave me a puzzled look. "What's wrong?"
It took me a second to shake my head. "No, it's nothing." He selected classical mode on the big screen. I sat on the floor and waited for him. One minute. Two minutes. Three minutes. Fifteen minutes.
Thirty minutes later, I pushed him away and let him lose. "What'd you to that for?" he yelled.
"Dude, it's been thirty minutes!" I said. "You're prefect and you've already reached a really high score. We could even get a Wii with this score."
"Then let's get a Wii," Drew said.
I pouted. "I wanted a necklace though!"
"I'll do it again," Drew said simply. "It won't be that hard." We played games and won a lot of prizes. It was really hard for me and Drew laughed so hard. I had a lot of fun with him.
It was already seven. Drew treated me to dinner and now we were in front of the Pokemon Center. "Do you think you have an answer?" Drew asked.
"To what?"
"My confession," he answered.
I hesitated. I thought for a moment and stopped walking. He stopped too and turned to face me. "I… I guess so." He motioned for me to continue talking. "I'll be your girlfriend I guess."
"Great," he said, smirking. He walked towards me and kissed my hair lightly. I blushed. "Good night May." Drew walked into the Pokemon Center with his hands in his pockets.
"Good night," I called out to him.
Oh look. They're together.
Sorry I couldn't update sooner. :( and I never watched the Breaking Dawn movie. I'm not a big fan of the Twilight Saga but one of my friends said it's gross. I hoped you guys enjoyed this chapter! Don't forget to review.
By the way if you haven't checked my profile, I have a Facebook page. :P
