Paul's Pov (October 20th)

I opened up the book in front of me, enjoying the quiet day.

Crystal, Gold's girlfriend, had given me this book after finding out how much I like to read. This was a horror book, apparently. It looked more like a romance story then a horror one, really. I sighed, flipping the first page after I finished reading it.

"Paul~!" I flinched, looking up to see Dawn standing there. She was holding my jacket, smiling happily. "Let's go outside!" I sighed, "Dawn, I am not going outside. I would rather read. You do know you'll be kicked out of the library again, right?" She stays quiet, pouting.

"I don't care about that old hag! Come with me so we can go shopping." She stomped her foot angrily, ignoring the agitated stares of students. I sighed, deciding to give in to her. I didn't want to get in trouble, and I already owe the library three or four books. I lost count, "Fine. Where do you want to go." I grumble.

She squeals, grabbing my hand and dragging me out of the library. "Well," Dawn started, "I need you to carry my bags!" My life is over. I'll be a pack mule forever now. I notice her hands are still in mine, and I fight back a blush. Lately, I have felt weird around Dawn. I know it's love, but I'm not going to like it. I don't want to be in love at all, and I don't want to be rejected.

I sound like Drew..

"Paul! Pay attention! How does it look?" She held up a dress.

I rolled my eyes, "It looks nice." I forced myself to say. She pouted, eye twitching. "How about this one?" She sang. I rolled my eyes, watching her run in and out of the changing room. Why did I agree to this again? She came out in a pink dress, twirling around. "Do you like this one?" She asked. "Yes," I turned, seeing the owner of the voice.

Lucas.

"I think it looks amazing Dawn." He said, sending me a glare. I sent one right back at him, while Dawn's smile faded. "Hey Lucas." She said softly. I looked at him, his dark blue eyes narrowed at me. "Hey Dawn, why didn't you ask me to come with you?" He said, somewhat angry. Dawn smiled forcefully. "I didn't want to bother you Lucas. Besides, Paul promised to spend time with me!" She looked at me pleadingly. I sighed.

"I did promise her that I'd spend time with her." I lied. I hate lying, but if this meant that I would have the upper hand, then so be it. "Oh.. Okay then. I'll see you later." He sent one last glare at me, before walking out. Dawn sighed in relief, "You have no idea how much I don't like him." She grumbled. I smirked lightly.

Everything seemed to be going my way right now..

"Anyways, Paul. I need to talk to you about some.. things." Dawn suddenly said. I looked at her, noticing how nervous she seemed. "I want to know," She said, hesitating before speaking once more, "What do you think of me?" She looked at me. I felt so nervous right now, because I know what I say next may either make her happy, or upset.

"Uh... You are a nice, but annoying girl.." I tried. She pouted, obviously not pleased with my answer. "Fine then, I expect a better answer though sooner or later!" She smiled brightly. I looked away, hoping she wouldn't see my blush now.

Look at me, blushing. This is pathetic. "Paul, carry these for me!" She dropped the bags into my hands, skipping off. I glared at her back, lifting the heavy bags as best I could. I followed the bluenette, people moving out of the way as she skipped by. It seemed like everyone knew not to mess with Dawn when she was on a shopping spree.

I followed her into a shop, noticing her eyeing an expensive dress. "Paul, I have no money for this dress!" She cried. I rolled my eyes, walking out of the store. Dawn suddenly grabbed my hand, pulling me back into the store. "Paul! Buy me this dress!" I groaned, pulling out my Trainer Card. I didn't have much money, and that dress would make me even more broke.

"Fine, I'll buy it." She squealed, "After this, however, I won't go shopping with you again." I grumbled. She stomped her foot angrily, glaring. "Why?! I need someone to carry my bags!" I raised a brow, "Then why not ask Drew? Ash and Gary could help you." She looked away.

"Nevermind. I ask you for a reason," She was blushing for some reason, "Paul... Thanks." I nodded, swiping my card as I looked at her. "There, take the dress." She nodded, happily walking out of the store with it. She led me out of the shopping district, heading back towards the dorms. It was quiet, for the most part.

I walked up the stairs, stopping in front of her door. I dropped the bags there, raising a brow. "There. I went shopping with you, so can I go back and read in peace?" Dawn nodded, oddly quiet. I decided to let it go, though I couldn't help but be curious. I turned to leave when Dawn suddenly turned me around, planting a kiss on my cheek.

"T-thanks Paul bye!" She said, slamming her door before I could say anything back. I stared at the door for a couple of minutes.

I snapped out of it a moment later, turning to leave., I absent mindedly touched my cheek as I left the dorms, a slight smile forming on my face.


Drew's Pov

Attempt two at trying to talk to May, WITHOUT awkwardness.

I looked at the brunette next to me, seeing her sapphire blue eyes darting around, trying to look at anything but me. Why is everything so awkward right now? "Hey May?" She looked at me, only to look away a second later. I face palmed, standing up and startling her.

"I don't know why its awkward like this, but it needs to stop!" I exclaimed. She stared in surprise, before giggling. "I don't know why it is awkward either.." She mumbled, blushing lightly. Why was she so shy and nervous now? She's been like this for a day or two, and I don't know what is wrong. "Hey May, can I ask you something?" She nodded.

"Why are you so shy and nervous?" Her eyes widened slightly, before she looked away. "I don't know.." I could tell she was lying. I sighed, "You could tell me, you know." She shook her head. "I don't want to. I know it'd make you... feel different." What did she mean by that?

I stared at her, but she wouldn't look at me at all. I sighed, sitting back down next to her. At least it wasn't so awkward now. People walked by, their chatter annoying me greatly. I didn't know what to do right now. I looked at May, seeing her texting on her phone. I hope it isn't Brendan. I tried to see who she was texting, but no luck.

"Hey Drew," May suddenly said, "I'm nervous because I like someone." Who? "They are really close to me." Still don't know..

"We've hung out a lot, and I hope he feels the same way." She suddenly got up, leaving without another word. Who did she mean? Someone she hangs out with, talks to a lot, close too...

Wait.

Did she mean me?


There is chapter 34! Hope you enjoyed!

-Pichu!
