Chapter 2
Whoa! This is the second chapter! Please review and favorite, cutie pie! Don't forget to read the 3rd chapter for some serious coolness!
May reached her home. It was just a ten minute walk from her school to home. She was really tired. May wondered about the weird green haired guy, Drew. Why did he have to be so annoying, rude but and then again sometimes friendly. "Why am I even thinking about him?" thought May and walked back home.
"May dear! I have to tell you something" said Caroline, May's mom.
"Yeah mom" said May while putting her backpack on the couch.
"You know that you've always stayed with us and if you want to go out on a pokemon journey by yourself, then you have to learn to be independent. So, the perfect way to teach you to be independent is to make you stay in your school's dorm" said Caroline
"WHAT? Today is a bad day..." said a sad May
"You're such a kid, sis" said Max, May's younger brother who is almost 13 years old.
"No dear. It's a good day. You can learn to stay by yourself. Think of it as a wonderful chance. You have to stay in your dorm from tomorrow. Don't worry, you'll have a roommate" said May's mom, Caroline
"May listen to your mom" said May's dad, Norman
"But Dawn doesn't stay in the dorm. Argh..." said May
"May you shouldn't always grow attached to one friend. Make friends with your roommate. It will make staying there a whole lot easier" Caroline tried to convince May.
"Yes May. Make new friends. You need to be independent. You can't always depend on us" said Norman.
"Urgh... Fine. So from tomorrow, once I go to school I'm not coming back home?" asked May pouting
"Haha. You got it right" said Max
"Kind of like that but you can come home during holidays. Now go pack your stuff. Pack everything you need. Take some money too, if you find out that you forgot to pack something, call me and I'll send it to you" said Caroline
"Okay mom" said May while heading to her room.
May was kind of sad because she'd miss her family. But she knew her parents were doing this for her own good. She packed everything she needed and it took her three huge bags. She was ready but she wished for a friendly and helpful roommate. She then slept on her bed. It was her last night in her room.
Drew was in his dorm room. He was organizing it to make it feel more like his room. He added some wall paintings, pictures of roses and sprayed a perfume of his choice. There were two beds in his room. One bigger than the other. He obviously chose the bigger one as his. He put his clothes in the closet and other stuff. He finally completed organizing his room.
He wished no one to be roommate. Then he fell asleep.
A big yawn and May woke up. She had to go to school and live there! As usual, she was late. She bid goodbye to her parents and brother.
"May don't forget to call me when everything has been settled in" said Caroline
"Good luck and be safe, darling" said Norman
"Bye sis, I'll miss you" said Max
"Bye everyone! I'll miss you all" said May waving goodbye
She was already late. She ran over to the receptionist and showed her a paper.
"This is your dorm room key. You have a roommate. Put your things there and attend your class please" said the receptionist
"Yes and thanks" said May and ran to her room.
When she opened the door, she saw many rose pictures and smelled a different kind of boyish smell. She thought she had a tomboy as her roommate. She wanted a girl as her roommate so that she can make friends more easily and go around the room freely with no restrictions. She put her stuff on the floor, grabbed her books and ran to her class. She was super later.
"M-May I come in?" asked a breathless May
"You are late" said Ms. Lavender, the pokemon health teacher
"I'm sorry but I had to settle things because from today have to stay in a dorm" replied May
"Oh well, get in." said Ms. Lavender
May got in and sat in her seat. And there he was, the devil; Drew. He smirked at her. She though he'd sit somewhere else by today.
"So you are staying in a dorm too?" asked Drew
"Yup" replied May
"I wonder why" said Drew
"How does it matter to you in any way?" asked May
"Just wondering...gosh!" said Drew
They continued on with their class. That's the little conversation they had during that subject.
~~...~~
Few classes later
~~...~~
"Umm...why is your mood off?" Drew asked May
"Nothing..." replied May
"Hey, you can tell me you know." said Drew, in a friendly way
"Fine, I'm gonna have to stay in a dorm. I'll miss my family. And there is one thing bugging that who my roommate will be. I want someone helpful and friendly." May said
"Oh, I'm pretty sure you'll get someone good. Haha lucky me, I'm alone in my room" said Drew
"Yeah? Whoa, isn't it gonna be boring?" asked May
"I don't know, maybe kind of? But I'll get over it" said Drew
"But it's nice to have someone as a roommate so you don't feel alone" May said
"You think so?" Drew asked May
"Yes and why are you still sitting beside me?" asked May
"Hey! I can sit wherever I want and I didn't annoy you today, now did I?" asked Drew innocently
"Oh...well, yeah. Umm. Haha guess you're right." said May
They both shared a little laugh. "Hey I like talking to her" thought Drew. "Maybe he isn't annoying and bad after all" thought May.
The bell rang but May and Drew didn't notice as they were indulged in talking to each other. Then Dawn showed up beside May.
"Ooh! You're boyfriend, May?" Dawn teased May and pointed towards Drew
"Shut up! No, we were just talking unlike you and someone else, you know." said May teasing and winking at Dawn.
"Shush! Now let's go have lunch" said Dawn
"Okay, bye Drew" said May leaving to the cafeteria with Dawn.
Drew watched them leave and a boy patted his shoulder. Drew turned and it was the same guy he met yesterday.
"Kenny?" said Drew
"Yeah, so let's have lunch together?" asked Kenny
"Of course" replied Drew
