HP Girls Day 3: May's Date
Hearthome City, Sinnoh. 12th February, 2023. 7:10am.
Misty rolled in bed, trying desperately to find the button to turn off the alarm that was ringing in her ear. Finally finding it, she turned it off and got out of bed. Yawning, she looked over at May, expecting to see tear streaks running down her face like the night before. Instead she was met with a bright smile from the brunette. Must be a good dream, She thought as she shook the brunette awake. May stretched her arms. "Morning," she greeted, smiling. Misty smiled back just as widely. "Morning. I'm using the bathroom first, if that's okay." Friend or not, Misty still felt a little uncomfortable sharing a room with someone she barely knows. She hoped that wouldn't be the case when they moved into their actual dorms after they debut.
The girls all met up in the hallway together. Dawn looked past Leaf and Misty to May. "What's got you all smiley today?" she asked slyly. Leaf and Misty glanced at her in agreement. May blushed. "I got a date," she quickly responded. The girls all stopped and faced her fully. May cowered. "What?" Then, they all started squealing. "OMG! With who?!" They asked, placing their faces up close to hers, their eyes shining. May looked away, now red. "You know…" She tried to play it off. Clearly, they weren't having it. "May Amelia Maple, WHO IS IT?!" Dawn yelled out.
May glaced at them before hiding her face in her hair. "Drew," she answered shyly. The girls squealed once again. "Eeek! That is so cute!" "I knew you liked him!" "When'd he ask you out?! Gimme the deets!" Dawn commanded, pulling out a notepad and pen. May sweatdropped.
"Well, he just asked me out yesterday night, and I said yes." she explained. Dawn nodded, noting down each word. "And May just said yes," she wrote. Then, she looked up. "That's it?" she asked. May nodded. "Pretty much." Misty and Leaf squealed again.
May just shook her head and walked to class, ignoring her friends' questions about the date. Entering the gym, she grabbed onto the treadmill and started walking as she put on her headphones. Misty once again punched the punching bag while Leaf decided to do some weightlifting, and Dawn decided to join May on the treadmill.
Soon enough, Jimmy entered the classroom. "Today, we'll be doing a cardio routine. Since we're starting today, it'd probably take us all of out time that we have today to learn and do the routine, but I expect you all to do this routine everyday starting next week, okay?"
The girls started learning the cardio:
-Jump Rope for 2 minutes
-100 Jumping Jacks
-50 Burpees
-20 laps up and down the stairs
-5 sets each
Two hours later, they went to Zoey's Wardrobe all sweaty and gross. Panting, they reached the door. "We're…We're here!" Leaf announced, sliding down the door as she did so. Zoey ran up to them. "Girls, what happened?" she asked, leading them to their outfit options for the day:
1. A black crop top with two thin white stripes on the sleeves, black skin tight shorts, and black shoes.
2. A black collared shirt without buttons and elbow sleeves, with black skin tight shorts, black knee length socks, and black shoes.
3. A plain black crop top, with black skin tight shorts, white socks, and white shoes with white knee pads.
4. Black sports bra along with a black hoodie with only one sleeve and no middle, a pair of black sweatpants, and some black shoes.
Misty chose the fourth one, Leaf chose the third one, Dawn chose the first one, and May chose the second one. (PS. These are all How You Like That by BLACKPINK Dance Practice outfits. 1 is Lisa's, 2 is Jisoo's, 3 is Jennie's and four is Rosé's) They all thanked Zoey and walked to Makeup.
Lyra paced around the room, looking carefully at each and every one on the girls' faces before nodding. Then, she worked her magic; Misty got her eyebrows done naturally sharp that was a tinge darker than her actual eyebrow colour. She also got her lips done a nice shade of hot natural pink that merged with her skin a little. Dawn ended up with glossy red lips along with black eye liner and a couple individual eyelashes with some sparkly eye shadow. Leaf got some brown pencil liner, and some mascara on her eyes. Lyra also decided to sharpen her brows a bit with a lighter shade of brown. She also got her lips done in an orange-redish colour that showed off her pearly whites. May got a little black smokey eyeshadow with a little thickening of the brows, and a glossy pink colour over her lips and some concealer.
They all thanked Lyra before heading out the room happily. They waved each other goodbye before they headed off to their classes. Misty and May entered the dance room, pleasantly surprised to see their actual mentor, Silver, warming up. He looked up.
"Oh good. You're here. Let's get started."
Almost an hour later, they practiced the song one last time:
They each sat down, waiting for their cue. The music built up. They raised their arms and brought them down before getting up.
It's the end of the month and the weekend
They made pull away motions with their hands while Silver nodded.
Imma spend this check,
Everything on me, yeah
Imma tip myself,
Imma spend it on myself,
Imma drop it like it's pouring,
Imma pour it on myself,
Check, check, check,
Check that money making bank account number,(Yikes)
Thats the shit that's never getting bounced on ya
Bitch I do the money dance,
I just made a hundred bands,
When the store says sign for it,
Imma leave my autograph,
Dollar bills, dollar bills, watch 'em falling for me,
I love the way that feels,
Dollar bills, dollar bills, watch 'em falling for me,
I love the way it feels,
I came here to drop some money,
Droppin' all my money,
Drop some money,
All this bread so yummy, yeah
Twerking, twerking when I buy the things I like,
Dollar, dollars, dropping on my ass tonight,
Everyone silent, listen to my money talk,
Spend how I like it…
Meanwhile, Dawn and Leaf were hard at work, writing their first song. Then, Cilan's watch rang. He looked at them. "Alright, so great job today, girls, but I expect you to finish this by tomorrow, yeah? Goodbye!" he waved as they walked out of class.
Dawn and May went straight to Stage Presence where Marina taught them about hyping up the crowd. On the other side of the building, Leaf and Misty chatted as they approached Kenny's classroom. They opened the door. Kenny smiled. "Hey girls!"
Leaf and Misty spent the whole class portraying different characters such as Cat from Victorious and Sam and Cat, Nicky from Nicky, Ricky, Dicky, and Dawn, and even Phoebe from The Thundermans. They laughed as they walked out of class waving to their mentor.
Serena entered the class, smiling when she saw Leaf and May chatting animatedly. "Hey you guys!" she greeted. They looked at her and smiled. "Oh, hi!" Serena clapped her hands. "Today, we're gonna do our normal thing; singing songs and all, but tomorrow, I'm sure you know you girls have to write a song for Cilan, so we're gonna be singing the lyrics for that tomorrow," she told them. The girls nodded and warmed up a little before walking into the studio.
(Leaf)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
(May)
A hopeless romantic all my life,
Surrounded by couples all the time
I guess I should take it as a sign
(Leaf)
I'm feeling lonely,
Oh, I'd wish I'd find a lover that could hold me
Now I'm crying in my room
(May)
So skeptical of love
But still I want it more, more, more
(Both)
I gave a second chance to cupid
But now I'm left here feeling stupid
Oh the way he makes me think that love isn't real
Cupid is so dumb
(Leaf)
I look for his arrows everyday,
Guess they got lost or flew away…
Meanwhile, Dawn and Misty were ready to rap. Calem smiled. "Ready girls? In three, two-" He clicked the recorder on. Dawn took a breath before starting.

As soon as they ended, they were met with applause; not only from their mentor, but from four other males as well who were standing there clapping with their mouths hanging open. Paul smirked. "Wow Troublesome. Who knew you could rap so well?" "Or have the ability to swear," Drew added. Dawn huffed and turned away from them.
Ash approached Misty with a grin. "Wow, Mist! Great rap!" he praised. Misty blushed. "Thanks. So what brings y'all here?" she asked, packing up her things. Gary spoke up. "Well, we're trying to find May…" he said as May and Leaf entered through the doorway. Drew looked at her. "May!" She looked up and smiled. "Drew! Hey!" she hugged him. They pulled back. "Let's go?" he asked. May paused. "Wait here," she told him before running to Zoey.
Seven minutes later, she returned wearing a dark green sweater and a pair of black leggings. Her hair was left down. Drew couldn't help but stare. She looked gorgeous. May giggled. "Ready?" she held out a hand. Drew grabbed it in a daze. "Let's go," he said leading her out the door. They settled down in his car and Drew started it as they chatted.
Leaf was sitting in the cafeteria, thinking about her song. She had initially started it, but then had second thoughts and tore apart the paper to start again. Suddenly, someone sat down in front of her. Leaf merely glanced at the person. "What do you want, Gary?" she asked, bored.
Gary feigned innocence. "Is that how you greet your brother's best friend?" he asked, clutching his heart dramatically. Leaf rolled her eyes. "Yes. Now what?" she asked, slightly irritated. Gary ran a hand through his hair. "Nothing. So what're you doing?" he asked, genuinely curious. Leaf sighed and turned away from him. "I can't think of what my song should be about." she spoke, looking out the window at the trees that were starting to go back to being yellow; and soon green.
Gary looked out the window as well. Suddenly, he got an idea. He snatched the paper from underneath Leaf's elbow. Leaf looked at him angrily. "Hey!" Gary shushed her and motioned for her to sit beside him. She did. He took a pencil and started writing.
Branches exploding
My leaves are golden stars
Ah-ah-ah
Birds love to breeze by
Dogs come to see my bark
Mmm-ah-ah-ah
He handed the paper back to Leaf. "So, what'd you think?" he asked shyly. Leaf looked at the lyrics with wide eyes. "I didn't know you could write," she stated. Gary rubbed the back of his neck. "Apart from being on the university soccer team, I also sometimes write lyrics and sing," he confessed. Leaf scanned the lyrics before taking a pencil and adding more.
My expectations stay on low
But you're the sun you make them grow
Leaf tapped her chin. "How do you damage a tree?" she asked to no one in particular. Gary answered. "You cut it." he told her. Leaf nodded, a new lyric forming in her head. "What do you cut it with?" she asked. Gary thought about it for a minute. "A chainsaw, an axe-" Leaf snapped her fingers. "An axe!" she exclaimed before writing down another lyric.
If there's an axe behind your back
Just let me know oh-oh
Leaf hugged the paper. "These lyrics are great! Thanks so much Gary!" she exclaimed cheerfully and hugged him. Gary blushed. Suddenly realizing what she was doing, she pulled back. "Sorry," she flushed. Gary smirked. "It's fine. I know you wanted to hug me anyway," he winked. Leaf growled. "GARY SAMUEL OAK YOU HAVE FIVE SECONDS TO RUN. FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE!" She yelled and started chasing him across the cafeteria, paper still in hand.
Meanwhile, May and Drew had reached the café. Drew helped her out the car before they both headed inside. They settled near a table for two and started ordering. Their waiter was a female who kept batting her eyelashes at Drew. This made May's blood boil. She quickly ordered and the waitress went away. She breathed a sigh of relief and she and Drew started talking.
A couple minutes later, the waitress returned with their food. "Here you are; two french vanillas and three croissants one plain and two chocolate." she spoke cheerfully facing Drew. He smiled. "Thanks. How much will that be?" he asked, pulling out his wallet. The waitress smiled flirtatiously. "That'd be one night," she winked. May looked at her in horror while Drew smirked. "With her, or you?" he asked casually. May's eyes bulged out of their sockets. What was he doing?
"Me, of course," she grinned. Drew's smirk widened. "Then no." he stated nonchalantly and went back to eating his food.
May grinned and started drinking her coffee across from him. Wrong move. The waitress growled and raged, hitting May's cup in the process. She gasped as she saw May covered in the boiling brown liquid. May stood up, gritting her teeth. She turned to the waitress, her eyes blazing. The waitress gulped. May glared at her. "We're leaving." Was all she spoke as she grabbed Drew by the arm and dragged him out the door.
May practically threw Drew towards the car before pulling out her phone and started dialling a number. "Hey, it's May. Mhm. It's at the Hearthome location. Yasmine. The blonde. Yeah. Thanks. Okay, bye." She then hung up and started looking around. Drew looked confused. "What was that all about?" he asked. May shushed him as a Porsche pulled up in front of them. A blonde woman stepped out of the car, her heels clicking as she did.
May smiled as she greeted the woman. "Cynthia! It's so good to see you again! How are Crystal and Steven?" she asked as she started walking towards the café with Cynthia beside her and Drew trailing behind. "They're good. I'm so sorry about what happened." Cynthia spoke. May led her to the blonde waitress who was flirting with another man.
Cynthia stepped in front of her. The waitress looked up, annoyed. "What? Can't you see I'm taking an order?" She then looked at the coffee coated May and smirked. "You again? Didn't I embarrass you enough?" she asked snobbishly. The manager ran out the back door. "Miss Cynthia! Ah what brings you here?" she asked nervously. Cynthia motioned to May. "Your waitress Yasmine spilled coffee all over my friend and tried to seduce her date." she told her.
Yasmine looked confused. "Okay, but who the fuck are you?" She asked. Cynthia raised an eyebrow at the language. The manager frowned. "You don't know? That's the CEO of all of our chains," she stated. Yasmine's brown eyes widened. "You mean…" Cynthia stepped forward. "You're fired." she told her firmly.
Meanwhile Misty was trying to create some music for her latest rap. She looked over the lyrics. Suddenly, someone took the paper right out of her hands. "Hey!" she exclaimed. Ash waved the paper in front of her. "What's up?" he sat down beside her. She frowned. "I can't figure out a beat for this rap." she told him. Ash looked at the lyrics. Then, he nodded and went to the drum set at the back of the room. Then, he started playing a beat. Misty started rapping along to it.
Leafy bad, Misty ready
Yes we brag, we throw jabs
Bitch'll get dragged ,we be like "gag"
Call her Lil' Leafy
When I r-ride and I ride it steady
Brand new range I just painted it Betty
I set trends from Queen to Beijing
I'm not the one that do the imitating
Puff puff pass cause you know we blazing
When I put it on him, he say it's amazing
All this cake he doing the tasting
I send shots get ready they may sting
It's Misty and it's Lil' Leaf-ies
Main character syndrome, they extras
W-w-we ain't answering questions
Click on a bitch 'fore she finish her sentence
Ash applauded. "That was great! Are you doing this song with Leaf?" he asked. Misty blushed a little. "Well, I was planning to release it as a sub unit after we debut," she told him. Ash nodded in understanding. "She would sound good on this song. Have you written her lyrics?" he asked. Misty shook her head. "I was hoping she'd write her own." she said. Ash nodded again.
Misty decided to change the topic. "So, have you been drumming for a long time? You're very good," she asked. Ash rubbed his head sheepishly. "Yeah. Have been drumming since I was ten. I sing a little too," he told her. Misty nodded. "That's nice. Maybe we could do a sub-unit together?" she asked. Ash grinned. "That'd be fun! We should do it!" he exclaimed. Misty agreed, smiling. With Ash around, maybe it wouldn't be so bad after all.
Dawn was in her balcony, trying to find some inspiration for her song. Looking around, she spotted Paul sitting in café, drinking coffee and reading. Deciding she'd found her inspiration, she went down and into the same coffee shop and sat in front of Paul. He looked up.
"What, Troublesome?" he asked her slightly irritated that he'd been disturbed. Dawn's smile immediately disappeared. "Well, hello to you too, Mr. Cold Heart. Why yes, I'm doing great thank you for asking." she spat sarcastically. Paul smirked and went back to his book. Dawn groaned and leaned back. Behind her, she saw a couple fighting.
"It didn't mean anything!"
"I don't care! You shouldn't flirt either way!"
"Why does it matter?!"
"Cause we're dating you dumbass!"
"And?!"
"And they were my FRIENDS you were flirting with!"
"So? I've dated them all before!"
"Ugh! You're impossible!"
"Me?"
"Yes you! And you know what? I'm so done! We're over!"
"Baby!"
"Nope,"
The girl walked out of the restaurant, the man chasing behind her in tears, begging her to take him back. Dawn watched the scene, lyrics forming in her head. She quickly wrote them down.
Why you calling me up?
Saying sorry again
Already told you we're done
What didn't you get?
Don't forget you're the one
That tried to get with my friends
The end, the end, the end, the end
Well you must be going crazy
thinking I'll be back I'm sorry
Cause you're crying like a baby
But do I look like your mommy?
Dawn grinned. "Yes! Thanks Paul!" she skipped out of the café, leaving behind a confused Paul. He watched her as she scampered away, shook his head and went back to his book.
At exactly 5:02pm, the girls entered the studio, all giddy with excitement as they bid each other goodbye. May and Leaf went to rap and Misty and Dawn went to Vocals.
By the end of the day, they were all exhausted and went straight to sleep, not noticing a pair of eyes scanning their every move from a few feet away.
