I will repeat this several times: I DO NOT OWN POKÉMON and the song May is going to sing in this chapter!
(^-^)Alexis (^-^)
Alexis Hayden surveyed herself in the full body mirror. After an extremely long talk with her older brother, and all of his friends two days ago regarding their scheme to reunite Drew with May Alexis had agreed to rush her wedding with Brenden. Her fiancé and she rushed to prepare a lovely outdoor wedding in La Rouse City Park were the young couple had first met two years ago. The wedding would take place the following day, and Alexis couldn't stop the excitement and nerves that were building.
The Next Day
Alexis looked at her flowing white silk dress. From her golden locks that were twisted into a glorious up due to her neck that was adorned with her mother's sapphire necklace. The heart shaped pendant barley gracing the top of her collarbone. The sweetheart neckline of the gown was adorned with small sapphire diamonds while the dress hugged all of the right places near her torso and waist it swept out afterwards. She smiled as Ashley handed over a bouquet of blue roses.
"You look beautiful Alexis," Ashley said in awe her eyes glistening with tears of joy.
Alexis smiled at her friend," Hey Ashley in just a few minutes we really will be sisters."
Ashley giggled," I can't believe my brother managed to get a girl as amazing as you Alexis." Ashley responded in a teasing tone poking the girl lightly on her sides. The girls began to giggle although their laughing secession was interrupted by a knock at the door. Ashley walked over and opened the door to reveal a nervous Drew.
Alexis smiled fondly at her older brother as he turned and admired her. She could see his eyes glisten, but decided not to mention it. "It's time," Drew said as Ashley ran out of the room to take her place with the rest of the bridesmaids. Alexis took in a breath to calm her fluttering heart, and summersaulting stomach, before hooking her arm with Drew's since he would be the one to walk her down the aisle to Brenden.
Alexis did not want her father anywhere near her after he had refused to accept her relationship with Brenden she'd cut off all ties. She pursed her lips as she thought of her father. He was completely incorrigible and anything but amiable. All her life he pressured Drew and her to meet unrealistic standards, and she couldn't remember a time he's ever showed either Hayden children an ounce of love or affection. Due to all of this the couple decided to have a wedding party that consisted of only three bridesmaids and four groomsman, Brendan's parents and her mother. It was small but that is just what Brenden and she had wanted.
The rest of the night had passed by in what seemed like a whirlwind of emotions. By the end of the reception as Brenden and she left for their honeymoon she took a moment to talk to her dear brother. She gave him a tight hug and whisper in his ear, "Don't stop fighting for her Drew. If you truly love her keep fighting."
Then she left and embraced her bridesmaids, Ashley Smith, Esme Oak, and Samantha Smith. Then she waited for Brenden to say his goodbyes to his groomsman Ash Ketchum, Gary Oak, Brock Slater, and her older brother Drew, before they set out on the beginning of the rest of their lives.
Xx Drew Xx
Drew ran to the door as he heard the doorbell ring. Yesterday his sister's wedding had taken place, and Drew had returned home very late, and because of that he was still groggy with sleep. As he pulled it open he was ambushed by beautiful girls," Drew you better have everything packed and ready to go." Ashley said as she examined the disarray behind Drew. His apartment was not in the best condition after ignoring cleaning for almost a week.
Ashley shook her head and turned her sapphire orbs to him, "Okay so as soon as we arrive Esme and I have to run for the Fruti Music Bar." Drew looked at his soon to be roommates Ash Ketchum, Gary Oak, and Paul.
"Wait why the music bar?" Drew asked seeming very puzzled.
Esme giggled, "It's located five minutes from the camp ground, and a lot of the campers go there for fun and entertainment." She replied rummaging through his fridge trying to find a snack.
Ashley nodded in agreement, "Misty sent me a text two days ago telling me that they not only took the camp councilor gig, but a part time gig as singers at the music bar." Drew smiled as a memories of may singing at their schools talent show entered his mind.
Esme giggled at Drew's dazed expression, "I bet you twenty dollars Paul that he's reminiscing on the Talent Show when he first met May." Paul glared at her but his lip slightly twitched upwards. Drew grabbed his suitcase that was leaning next to the front door, and then they were on their way to Cerulean City. Hopefully, if all went as planned he should be able to admit his feelings to May.
"Hey Drew we thought of another way to woo our little Maybell, so how do you feel about forming our own band and performing?" Gary said as he held the car door open for Ashley.
Drew nodded his head not really listening as he daydreamed seeing May again after a long month, "I'm up for anything Oak after all I am Drew Hayden," He smirked as stepped into the red convertible and laid his head back on the seat. He sighed as he flipped his hair thinking of the brunet that had somehow stolen his heart.

May shook her head in annoyance as Misty and Dawn ran out their cabin door. "What took so long girls we're going to be late to the Fruti Music Bar?" May yelled worriedly as she checked her phone for the fifth time that night.
Dawn ran dragging Misty along behind her who in retro speck grabbed May's arm and ran to their baby blue bug. Once the girls were buckled up Misty speed to their third gig that week, they had been performing for over a week, and they wanted to keep the job.
Once outside the large parking lot the girls rushed out and made their way to the back door entrance. They rushed to the backstage area and hurriedly got their instruments ready. James Williams the backstage manager nodded at the girls and mouthed," Five Minutes."
May nodded and turned to Dawn and Misty, "Girls we have Five minutes to get set up okay." Misty nodded and she went back to practicing on her drum solo, while Dawn ran through the song on her keyboard. May took a deep breath feeling the excitement and nerves bubbling in her stomach. She picked up her cherry red electric guitar and began to strum, but was quickly stopped as James signaled for them to walk on stage.
The girls walked on stage and were welcomed warmly, mostly from the male population, although most of the females were staring at them with detest. May and her friends had heard some rumors being spread by some of the jealous teens the last night they had performed.
May walked up to the mike, "So here's a little bit of advice to all of you. Next time you hear some juicy dish about somebody else Note To Self so what!" As May finished she began to play the upbeat melody that quickly began to make everyone in the music bar dance. Even the jealous females couldn't stop themselves from swaying to the music.
(May)
I rise to greet the day despite the monsters underneath my bed
I grab the pen and count to ten
And spill the contents of my head
This is the here this is the now
I gotta make it somehow
Sometimes it fills as if my brain is bursting
Gotta write it down
(Chorus)
Note to self
Feed the dog, call the mom, write a song
And rule the world by noon
Note To self
Make the grade; make your mind, break a leg
And don't forget to always work the room
'Cause everything is going by so fast
I just wanna make something that lasts
But I'm gunna leave the keys up on the shelf
Note to self...
May walked down off the stage and began to make her way to the middle of the dance floor. She began to jump in place as she continued to play her guitar. The audience began to scream more rumbustiously. May was so distracted that she didn't notice Drew and her other friends walk into the music bar.
May danced her way back on stage, and she made her way to Dawn where they both jammed out. The crowd of hormonal male teens screamed louder. Both girls smirked they knew they looked good. Both were wearing baby tees that showed off a small portion of their belly buttons, dark skinny jeans and their hair flowed flawlessly down their backs. Misty not being the girly girl decided to go in dark skinny jeans and a tight Buckcherry T-shirt.
I lose myself inside the night
Despite the demons in my mind
We hit the streets and take his hand
To promise land, aint far behind
Whether it's right or if it's wrong
I wanna party all night long
Sometimes it feels as if my brain is bursting
Gotta work it out
As the final chorus of the song was coming up May handed her guitar to James who took care of playing her solo. She danced to the sound of the music her body keeping in sync with the music. The cheers grew louder and louder.
(Chorus May and Dawn)
Note to self
Feed the dog, call the mom, write a song
And rule the world by noon
Note To self
Make the grade; make your mind, break a leg
And don't forget to always work the room
'Cause everything is going by so fast
I just wanna make something that lasts
But I'm gunna leave the keys up on the shelf
Note to self...x4
As the song came to an end even the testiest of females were congratulating the trio. May smiled she hadn't felt this free or happy in over a month. "Girls you were awesome!" Ashley Smith yelled at her roommates running toward them a goofy smile plastered on her face. The trio turned to find their two roommates running toward them.
"Ashley, Esme!" Dawn yelled running toward their friends. May smiled tonight had just gotten even better.
"Hey May nice job up there," a masculine voice said from behind them. May turned to see her former high school classmates Ash Ketchum, and Brock Slater along with Gary Oak, and Paul! May almost topple over as Dawn ran up to Paul to practically body slam him as she embraced him. May chuckled at Paul's pained expression, and she also noticed Misty blushing as the two teens separated from a hug.
"So guys what do you say we get out of here and catch up at the cabins I promised mom we'd get there early?" Ashley suggested already practically herding the group out the doors. They were halfway to their car when May suddenly realized she had left her purse backstage. She ran off to retrieve it but on her way back she bumped into somebody she was not expecting; much less walk in on him kissing another girl.
She could feel her heart being torn as she witnessed Drew. May couldn't figure why she was feeling so odd. Drew was her closest friend…or was there something else there? She shook her head angrily not allowing any tears to flow, or any more alarming thoughts to form. Drew was her best friend the first person who comforted her after any unpleasant incident in her life. He was the reason she pushed herself so hard in becoming a great musician. There could be nothing romantic between Drew and her. They were friends perhaps rivals to an extent, but nothing more. She braced her shoulders and walked out with her head held high. Even though deep down all she wanted to do was cruel up and cry.
