The Powers That Be Ship Thee Brendan x Wally (Loverivalshipping)

Abominably Adorable

Me: *Points to video* "Okay, it really has nothing to do with this story, but the song is so effing catchy. And even though the video is titled 'Notice Me, Sensei,' the song never actually says anything along those lines, so I guess it could be a song for Wally and Brendan!" :D "Look how I magically make the things I like work for me!...Although parts of the song are weird...BUT IT'S SO CATCHY! I caught myself bobbing my head side to side to it like some sort of insane schoolgirl...Oh, wait, that is what I am. My bad, song!" XD "Oh! And look how cute Wally is while he sleeps!" *Points to picture* "Okay, let's just start the show, baes."

*Wally's POV*

I-I can't believe there are people out there who would actually go to such lengths to make fun of someone. Gosh, I thought people could be a little mean sometimes, and I've always been scared of that, but I never ever thought I'd actually have to deal with something this bad! I mean, h-he kissed me! Who told him I like boys anyways...? That's what he's trying to exploit, right? Some sort of joke? Well, too bad, Brendan, it's not happening...Can't believe he even tried to use Azure against me, though—that hurts. I love that pokémon. I hope it's okay...I just have to wait a little longer until the stupid investigation for stupid Brendan is over. I nod to myself.

"Hey, Wally!" I turn around in the hallway I've been aimlessly strolling down and see that May's waving to me. She runs up when she sees that I've stopped for her. She smiles, but I can't help but scowl back because of that stupid Brendan—he's put me in such a bad mood.

"Wally...?" May asks, cocking her head to the side, "What's wrong?"

Sh-should I tell her? She's been nothing but nice to me so far—if a little hard to beat at times—and I've known her for a while now...She knows about Azure...and she knows Brendan, too...

"U-umm," I decide to speak since she's waiting so patiently for me to respond, "Y-you know, Brendan?"

May grimaces a little. "Yeah, what did he do?"

"Oh, well, umm, h-h-h-" I stop for a minute, take a deep breath, and then just try to get the words out there, "I think he found out about me liking boys somehow, and now he's teasing me about it. He even kissed me earlier!" I furrow my brows even further than I had been—this is so upsetting.

Watching May's face, she seems surprised at first, and then she switches to some other emotion but snaps out of it too fast for me to figure out what it is. She settles on...happy? I can't believe she's smiling at me right now...Well, I guess it is at least sort of a concerned smile...

"Wally," she starts, shaking her head at me, "why would anyone go to such lengths to tease you? I bet he liiiikes you," I take a step back from her because she's kind of leering at me right now, but then she goes back to her usual, pleasant smile, "He was more likely being serious than he was being mean. What did you even do when he kissed you anyways?"

...I don't believe her, not yet, so I keep frowning. "I slapped him," I admit, then shrug—what else was I supposed to do to him?

Again, May's face briefly flickers to some emotion I can't quite identify, and then she shakes it off with another regular smile. "Wally, that's mean. Now, even if you don't like him, you have to go apologize!" She sticks her pointer finger in my face with a really wide grin—it's kind of annoying, but I don't say anything about it.

"How do you know he wasn't trying to be mean?" I glare at her skeptically.

May's whole face twitches, like she's desperately repressing something, and I'm starting to really wonder what emotion it is that's been crossing her face in brief flashes...She suddenly turns around, and I'm now positive she's hiding something from me. Her voice is strained when she speaks, "Oh, well, ya see...I-I've known Brendan since I was...really little! Yeah, really little...Oh, and he, uh...We're best friends! Remember how he was mean to me at the table earlier? He can be such a jokester sometimes! Haha!" I see her scratch the back of her head, "Anyways, because he's my best friend, I automatically can tell that he would never kiss a guy unless he really liked him! Oh, and, uh..." she keeps scratching the back of her head and twitching a little, "h-he's the gayest guy I know! He's sooo gay! Like this gay!" May stretches her arms out as wide as they'll go but still refuses to face me, "Yeah, really fucking gay," it sounds like she growls it..."Besides!" she suddenly, finally does turn around, face back in its standard smiling position, "What guy would actually kiss another guy if he wasn't gay and didn't like him?"
