Today is a special day for May, she woke up from a nap really happy she could really feel the evening air passing through her she looked outside her window and admired the scenery of what little root town could offer. She could see some Altarias flying by she noticed that their fluffy wings add good accent in the dark beautiful sky, the grass was swaying to the east, and a beautiful pond that she can see through the horizon was sparkling there's nothing more she could ask for but the beautiful setting of her home.

As she finished, she walked to her closet and opened it, there were a lot of options to pick as her dress for this night, she couldn't decide, but she would like to pick something simple but elegant.

"How about this one Tricky?" She showed a light blue colored cocktail dress to her starter pokèmon: A Sceptile. Her Sceptile was really loyal and strong it would always chase down people who would bump her accidentally or people who would make her cry, May would try her best to stop her fellow companion but it would always get it's way.

Tricky tilted it's head and then nodded lightly with a gentle smile.

"Hmm." May posed with the dress and making her final judgement. "...yeah it's beautiful, I really like how it glisters." She approached Tricky and hugged him giving him thanks.

May rushed to the bathroom to change while her Sceptile waits for her.

She looked at the wall clock it's 6:35 pm crap she's gonna be late, she promised that she'll be there earlier. She ran downstairs and hugged her parents without saying any word but a simple wave.

Rustboro city...well it doesn't really look like a city but-that's what they call it although the city is indoors, it might take you awhile to be familiar with which way you have to go.

It seems like a labyrinth in here but small rather than Lumiose city in Kalos which is so big that you have no choice but to ride a car to get to your destination, but anyway, May went outside at Rustboro's quadrangle she walked gracefully while putting some small makeup on her face-not too crazy, but light.

As she continued she felt a small poke on her bare arms, May turned her head sand saw a young, tall gentleman with a sliver hair.

"Hey May, we got here at the same time didn't we?" The fellow man stared at May's eyes with a smirk on his face.

"Oh hey, I thought that I would be late, but thank Arceus you found me. So shall we?" May grabbed Steven's arm to lead him to the most expensive restaurant that they both agreed on: The Ludicolo seafood restaurant, they sell the best salmon out of all region.

But Steven didn't move. "Actually I want to talk to you." He pointed a bench by the perimeter and they both walked towards it.

"Have a seat." Steven held May's hand until she sat down. May was getting nervous on what Steven would say but she would block those negative thoughts into positive once ."Maybe he's just setting the mood on, or maybe he'll introduce me with a gift, it is our 10th date so why not make it special." Her hands were sweating, she clutched on the wooden bars of the bench tightly while Steven finally sat down and smelled the fresh air.

He inhaled and let out a big exhale. "May..." Steven paused and closed his eyes he gave himself a minute until he built up his confidence to already say it.

"We've been in this relationship for about 18 months and for the past... 2 months I supposed? I've been wondering where our relationship would be going-I didn't thought about it in a bad way, it's just, all this responsibilities I have to take care off and even though I'm not the champion anymore since Brendan is already taking my place I still have to do this, and that and what else this region could hand out to me, and it's been tough times , hell I even have to travel to Johto to do my geology work and also to deliver some parts to Sinnoh." Again he stopped to see May shedding tears, Steven cupped her face with his two hands and wiped away her tears.

"Look I hope you understand, I'm really sorry, I don't want seeing myself rejecting you in the future because right there I'll be a total mess, I'll have no sleep, just work and-"

"I understand. Truly I do, thank you for opening up to me." With those words Steven got up and kissed her on her lips one last time without continuing the conversation any further. "Thanks to you too May." Steven hugged May with a pat on the back and walked backwards slowly with his final words. "Hope we could still be in touch."

May just nodded. As his shadow faded back inside Mauville city.
