May's POV

I got dressed for the contest, extremely excited. It was a contest and yes, I was always excited for them, but I had something different. I had a new perfume that I was going to try out. It was called 'temptation', but really, it was just strawberry flavour. I loved it. It was smelt so nice. I sprayed it on my neck twice. I frowned and then sprayed it once on each of my wrists. There, that should do it. I just hoped it wasn't too strong. I didn't have Ash, Brock or even Max to tell me if it was. Oh well, I'd soon find out. I looked in the mirror and frowned. Somehow my usual outfit didn't seem to quite suit. I know! I went to my closet and pulled out my dark green bandana. I took the red one off and replaced it with the green one. There. I felt like a strawberry now. Red with a green top. I giggled at my thoughts.

"Ok, let's go," I called to no-one. I grabbed my bag and tightened it around my waist. Inside was everything I needed to enter this next contest. Contest pass and Pokémon. I walked out, locking my door behind me. I happily skipped along. I had practised this appeal for ages, there was no way I was going to mess it up. I was pretty confident about it.

"May," someone called. It was someone that I knew very well; someone who was my rival and my friend, with green eyes, green hair and an almost ever-present smirk.

"Hey Drew," I called back cheerfully. He raised his eyebrows as he looked at me.

"You know it's not Christmas yet May. Why are you-" He stopped suddenly, smelling the air. His posture straightened, his head snapping up and he looked all around. This was just slightly confusing. I'd never seen him act like this.

"Do you smell strawberries?" he asked. So he could smell my perfume.

"Yes, I-"

"Where are they?" He asked, cutting me off.

"It's my new perfume," I said.

"Really?" he questioned, sounding slightly disappointed. I nodded, wondering what was up with him. He stepped closer to me, putting his arms around me and reeling me towards him. I blushed as my body made contact with his. He lowered his head down to my neck and I could feel him breathing in and out against it.

"You do smell like strawberries," he said. He made no move to let go and so I stood there awkwardly as Drew continued to sniff my neck.

"Um...Drew?" I questioned.

"Yeah," he murmured.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"Smelling," he replied.

"Why?"

"Because it smells good."

"Can you let me go now?"

"Why?"

"Because I need to get on stage now."

"Oh right, sorry." He let me go and stepped back.

"Solidad!" I called, spotting my pink-haired rival. I ran to her quickly. It was after the contest and I had won it, gaining my 3rd ribbon. It was surprisingly not that hard. Drew was pretty distracted and Solidad had decided to sit out this one.

"Hello May!" She called back cheerfully.

"Don't say my name!" I exclaimed, "Just quick, hide me." I jumped behind her and I heard Solidad laugh.

"What are you hiding from?" Solidad asked.

"Drew," I replied.

"And why, may I ask, are you hiding from Drew?" She questioned.

"He's been following me around all night," I answered. I peeked out from behind her and saw Drew coming towards us.

"Oh no, here he comes," I whispered, "don't tell him you know where I am." I ducked down behind the benches.
