Hey, thank you for those who reviewed! (: I got some new reviewers. I hope you guys can read my new story Prove It! It's about Drew trying to prove to May that he likes her in a week. He confessed to her, but she didn't believe him. Okay, please read it!

Haha, I see some of you guys are thinking I'm trying to repair Cindy's (bitchy) behavior. But you know in my mind Cindy was just nice to Brendan. And Drew was so sweet the last chapter… (: Brendan, be on your guard. Drew might kill you!

I actually wrote this yesterday, but my computer wouldn't let me log in. ):

Wow that was a pretty long author's note. I have some super important stuff to say, you know! =D

Here's chapter 24!

I knocked Drew's door. Once, twice, three times. No one answered! I took out my phone and dialed his number. "Drew? Where are you?" I said.

"Yeah May?" he said. "Oh yeah, I'm good. Good morning to you too."

"Shut up," I said.

"I'm training," Drew answered. "It's important for a coordinator to get up early to train."

"Really?" I asked. I didn't know that. "Cool! Where are you?"

"I err," he started. "Shoot. I have to go, bye!"

"Drew?" I said. "What the frick!" I bet he was lying. I went back to my room and grabbed my bag. I ran over to Nurse Joy. "Good morning," I said. "Have you seen Drew?"

Nurse Joy nodded. "Yes, he just ran out the door."

Just? He said he woke up early to train. "Umm okay," I said. "Which way did he go?"

"I'm sorry," she said. "I wasn't looking."

"Oh that's okay," I said. "Bye." I ran off and turned a random direction. Who has time to eat breakfast these days? Obviously not me.

oOo . oOo

Drew walked around in the forest. "I'm sorry Cindy," a voice said. There, Drew found him. Drew turned and saw Brendan with his hands shoved in his pockets. He was talking to Cindy, but his eyes just couldn't meet hers.

Cindy crossed her arms. "What do you mean?"

"I know I said I'd always stay by your side," Brendan said. "I meant that to protect you. I never saw you as a lover. Just a childhood friend."

"I noticed," Cindy said. "You still love her right?"

Brendan nodded. "Yeah."

Cindy lifted her hand and slapped him across the face. Brendan's eyes widened. Drew chuckled. Cindy threw her hair over her shoulder. "Before you can dump me," Cindy said, crossing her arms. "I'm going to dump you first."

"You hate me, don't you?" Brendan asked.

"No, I still love you," Cindy said. "But you obviously love May more than anyone. Though I honestly don't know what's so amazing about her. I mean, everyone loves her!" Cindy snorted. "You should go after her. She probably still loves you."

Brendan sighed and shook his head. "I don't think she does anymore."

"Why?" Cindy asked.

"Her heart belongs to Drew now," Brendan said. His voice was filled with jealousy; it wasn't hard to not catch it. "I bet she tried to hide it from me."

"Are you sure all of her heart?" Cindy asked.

"I won't butt in," he muttered. "I only wish for her to be happy."

I only wish for her to be happy, too, Drew thought. He walked towards Brendan and Cindy. "Well then Brendan," Drew said. "We both want her to be happy."

"Hi Hayden," Brendan muttered. "What do you want to do about her?"

"I don't know," Drew said. "Ask her?"

"We can have a competition," Brendan suggested.

Cindy sighed. "I hope you guys are aware," Cindy said. "That tomorrow there's going to be a competition that coordinators and trainers can join. I'm pretty sure you guys are strong enough to defeat all those other noob kids so why don't you guys participate?"

"And whoever wins gets May?" Brendan said.

"Don't talk like she's a property," Drew snapped. "I accept your challenge."

"Yeah," Brendan said. "Defeating coordinators are so easy."

"Are you sure?" Drew asked, smirking. "Trainers battle like pussy."

oOo . oOo

"I found you!" I screamed.

Drew looked up at me, startled. His Roselia was out and it was battling a wild Pokemon. "What May?"

"I was running around looking for you, that's what!" I snapped. "Where were you? Damn, now I'm tired. And hungry!"

"Calm down May," Drew said. "I told you I was training, right?"

"Then why—" I groaned. I was not in the mood for arguing. "Where were you? You weren't training. I know you weren't."

"I was talking with a friend," Drew said.

"Friend?" I repeated, shocked. "You have friends?"

"Whatever May," Drew said.

I crossed my arms. "Who was she? Was she a girl? A boy? What were you talking about? How come you had to leave early? Was it that important?"

"He was just telling me to participate in a contest," he answered. He flipped his hair. "I didn't know you could be jealous, May. You love me that much?"

"Shut up Drew!" I yelled.

"Do you May?" he asked.

I blushed. "I'm leaving, I have to eat lunch!" I took out my phone and looked through my contact list. There weren't a lot of people, so I dialed April's number. "Hi April," I said.

"Ey May!" she answered. "What's up?"

"I was wondering if you wanted to eat lunch with me," I said. "I know we just met together, but…"

"Why not?" April said. "Where do you want to eat?"

"Umm…" I said. "You pick."

"How about at Green Garden?" she offered.

"That sounds like a green house," I said.

April laughed. "Funny. It's not though. So, I'll meet you there in ten minutes?"

"Ten minutes it is," I agreed. I recently walked past Green Garden when I was looking for Drew, so I was pretty sure I knew where he was. I'm so mad him, he lied. He wasn't training. Who was he talking about anyways?

After seven minutes or so, I was at Green Garden's front door. I took out my cell phone and texted April to ask if she was here yet. I got a reply from her: Yeah, I'm already here, I'm with Cindy too so come join us.

I groaned. Seriously, Cindy was there? I went inside and the waitress asked me to pay. "My friend is here already so I'm going to join her," I said. She nodded so I went in. I saw April talking with Cindy. "Hey April."

"Hi May," April said.

"I didn't know Cindy was coming," I said.

"She called me because she was upset that Brendan was taking a break from her," April explained. She patted the chair next to her. "Sit down." I saw down next to her and gave Cindy a look.

"You broke up with him?" I asked, stunned.

Cindy nodded slowly. "Yeah, he still loves his ex."

I wrinkled my nose. "Seriously?"

"You know his ex, May?" April asked me, raising an eyebrow. "Who is she, Cindy?"

"It's May," Cindy said.

"What?" April asked. "You?"

"Yeah," I said.

"You guys were acting like strangers though," April said.

I shrugged. "I love acting," I said sarcastically. "But I'm dating Drew now so I can't be with Brendan."

"Where is he now?" April asked.

"He's training his Pokemon," I said. "He also told me he was out with a friend this morning. And he didn't tell me who it was! That idiot. Stupid Grasshead. Uggh." A waiter walked by and took my order.

April laughed. "You guys are totally cute together," she said. "So what did you do when he said he was taking a break from you, Cindy?"

"He said he's going to try getting May back," Cindy answered. She glared at me and I bit my lip. "Those two are participating in a contest and whoever wins gets May. I seriously hope Drew wins."

"What?" I shrieked. People around us gave us strange looks. "Oops. Sorry!"

"This is all your fault May," Cindy continued. "If you stopped bothering Brendan, Brendan would be completely and totally mine! He would have loved me if you hadn't appeared in our lives!"

"What?" I said. "It's not my fault that we were in love!"

"Yes it is," she said. "What's next? Are you going to take my best friend away too?"

"I don't give a damn about you Cindy," I half-yelled.

April banged her hands on the table. "Cut it out you two," she said. "I have no idea what's going on because you guys won't stop fighting. Have you guys met already? Do you hate each other?"

"Yes I hate May," Cindy said, rolling her eyes. "So much. She stole my first love away from me!"

"I didn't even know you!" I said. "You can have him, I don't want Brendan."

"But Brendan doesn't want me," Cindy said.

"Then suck it up and find a new guy!" I yelled, standing up.

"Shut up!" April said. She pulled my hand so I could sit down. "Cindy, you're acting like a bitch."

Cindy frowned. "Did you just call me a bitch?"

Well Cindy, no offense or anything, but you are a bitch.

"Yes I did," April said, narrowing her eyes. "I'm here to talk about your guy problems. And here you are blaming everything on May! Did she do anything? No. Now stop and tell us about the competition you were talking about before."

Cindy groaned and shot April and I a glare. "There's a coordinator and trainers contest. It's just to see who's strongest. So Brendan and Drew are going to compete. And whoever wins gets May."

"I'm the prize?" I repeated. "Wow, I feel loved. Do I have to? It's not like I love Brendan."

"Are you sure?" Cindy asked. "I mean, you guys only broke up what, a month ago? You probably still have some feelings for him."

"Sure," I said, rolling my eyes. "I have a boyfriend."

"So you forget all the memories you had with Brendan?" Cindy asked.

"Stop it!" I said.

"Then who do you love?" Cindy said.

I held my head with my hands. "I don't know! Stop it! Brendan won't leave me alone so I have no time to get over him, okay? Just stop it, I want to get over him so I could be with Drew but it's like fate doesn't want me to get over Brendan!"

Cindy rolled her eyes. "So what are you going to do about the competition?"

"Who knows," I muttered. "I don't want to hurt anyone." I felt tears coming to my eyes and they all of sudden just dropped out from my eyes. "I love Drew, but Brendan? He…" I sighed. "I think I still like him a little."

"Burn," Cindy muttered.

April wrapped her arm around me and glared at Cindy. "Cindy, be quiet."

"Here I told Drew I was over Brendan," I said. "I'm such a liar."

"It's okay May," April said. "Listen to me. Close your eyes. In your mind, who's going to win the competition?" I shut my eyes, thinking slowly. The one holding the prize with me standing next to him is…

Brendan.

Ouch.

What the hell?

Okay, well here's a shocking update for you. Let's see what you guys said, and again, please see my new story!
