~May's POV~

"C'mon Beautifly! Let's go!"I yell, excited to go to the beach on such a nice day, slinging my yellow backpack over my shoulder.

·Hold up May!· Beautifly yells at me telepathically, flying towards me, the first rose Drew ever gave Beautifly in her tiny hands. I giggle, knowing why Drew gave Beautifly that rose.

"It's not like we're gonna see them there Beautifly! Now hurry up before I return you to your pokéball!" I yell over my shoulder, running towards the direction of the beach. I bump into someone, falling backwards, I squeeze my eyes shut, waiting for the impact. It doesn't come, warm arms wrap themselves around my waist, I open my eyes, my sapphire ones meeting emerald ones. I blush, clearing my throat I awkwardly speak, "You can let go of me now, Drew."

He lets go of me, I turn away to see Beautifly finally catching up. ·May! You run waaaay too fast for your own good! What'd I miss?· I smile at her as she lands on my head, the rose in her tiny hands drops, I catch it.

"So I see you kept the rose May. I told you, it's for your Beautifly," Drew states with his usual smirk, flipping his hair to tick me off. I roll my eyes at him, trying my hardest not to strangle him.

"I didn't keep it, Beautifly did," I state, gesturing to Beautifly whom is now beside me. I prove it to him by handing over the rose to Beautifly, "It's the first one 'you' gave her." I make air quotes when I said the word 'you'.

"What's with the air quotes, Maple," He asks, raising a brow. I huff, attempting to blow my bangs out of my face. Fail. Instead, I flip my hair with a knowing smirk of my own, surprising Drew.

"Drew, I know I'm dense at times but I'm not an idiot. It's obvious that the first rose was from Masquerain, he sent you to give that rose to Beautifly!" I state, clapsing my hands together, "Isn't that soooo romantic!" I sigh, beginning to daydream, "If only a guy would give me roses to show how much he cares... Or watch my performances and give me some advice..," I laugh at myself, shaking my head, "Too bad there's no one like that for me..."

Drew clears his throat and shoves his hands in his pockets, looking down at the floor awkwardly, I sweatdrop, I forgot he was there... Silly me!

"Anyways... What are you doing here?" I ask, curious to as why he is here. In Petalburg.

"Well, if you haven't realized by now, I'm trying to find a spot to train. I assume you're here for a day at the beach." I nod, an idea in mind.

"Hey, why don't we go to the beach together!" I ask, smiling at him, waiting for a response.

"No thanks. Unlike you, I'd rather train than fool around," He replies arrogantly, closing his eyes. My heart sinks but I smile nevertheless.

"Alright then Drew, bye!" I speak cheerily, "Besides Beautifly and I won't be completely playing around, we'll also be training at the same time. Either way, you gotta loosen up, have some fun!" I run towards the beach, turning a bit towards him to wave 'good-bye' before turning ahead to continue my way towards the beach.

~Drew's POV~

"That's enough training for today Roselia," I inform my rose partner, kneeling down at her eye level," Do ya wanna go to the beach for some relaxation?" She nods her head as a 'yes'. We walk towards the beach, me with my eyes closed, Roselia by my side, in peaceful silence until Roselia decides to break it.

·You know, it's unlike yo to wnat to relax. Unless...· She trails off, her eyes beginning to brighten and the end of her mouth turning into a smirk.
