Burried Letters Part One

Trigger warning: Death and cursing. You may or may not be in tears

The audience sat in silence. The contest that would be held would be the last ticket to Grand Festival. All the contestants had earned all four ribbons. And they lacked only one.

"If I don't win this contest beautifly, I won't be able to get in the grand festival." May said anxiously as she sat on the bench in the participants waiting room.

"Soledad and Harley already got their ribbons.. There is no doubt Drew got in too." She whispered to herself. She looked at beautifly. Tears shone in her eyes, threatening to fall. Footsteps were heard. May quickly wiped her tears.
"Roserade, we have to win this contest." A male's voice spoke with determination. May looked up. "This is our last chanc-" the boy stopped himself mid way, frozen.

"May?" "Drew?"
"Wait that means...."
" We are competing against each other." Drew finished.

"Listen Drew, no hard feelings. But I am going to win this thing and enter the Grand Festival and win it" May said determined. Drew narrowed his eyes. "We will see about that May. Don't get too cocky. You won't be happy-go-lucky this time."

The contest began. The audience went wild. The contestants were all anxious and determined to win the contest. But only two contestants reached the last and final round.

May and Drew.

The battle between them was intense, each try to prove themselves to each other. But there was something besides tension and determination to win. Something else that the audience nor judges couldn't point on.

It was NOT love in the air. Something else, far worse.

"Ladies and Gentlemen. The winner of the contest is....
Let's have it ladies for MAY MAPLE!!"
May couldn't believe it at all. She beat Drew Hayden. The toughest and most competitive rival she has. She glanced at her rival, only to find him swallowed into the shadows.  It raised a bit concern in her. She felt something was off during the battle. Drew was off..

Drew walked off the contest hall with hands in pocket. His eyes darken with his bangs.
"So little bro lost to his lady huh? Seems like you lost the chance of taking part in your last grand festival Drew." And elder man ,dark green hair with few strands of hair gazed upon Drew, his younger brother.

"Well atleast that's something good. Now you won't ever come back to contest ever again. Your training to inherent your father's gym and company shall begin soon." He announced. Drew clenched his fist, taking a deep breath and nodded.

Not only have I lost the chance to win the Grand Festival. I also lost the chance to tell May how I feel.

********
It hit hard on Soledad, Harley and May when they heard that Drew Hayden had quit being a coordinator. May couldn't believe it. None of them did. They tried multiple times to contact Drew, but no luck.

Soledad made up a plan for May to confess to Drew, revealing Drew likes her and would definitely reply to her. She was the only one who could get him back.

It led May to think.
Was Soledad really telling the truth? She did say he used to talk about her and only her. She doesn't get it. Sure, he is charming and handsome and amazing and there is every single reason why girls would fall for him.

But none she could find, a reason to fall for her. She is a clumsy airhead. Even Drew told her that.

But if there was anything that can get Drew back, if Soledad was really trying to tell the truth, then Drew may come back. Or the Least he would respond and they'll get to know how's he doing. But she shouldn't let her hopes rise high.
