"Hey, May?" Dawn asked nonchalantly, stretching her legs out across her friend May's loveseat. May was lying next to her, both eyes closed.
"Hmm?" May opened one eye and pulled out an earbud.
"Do you like anybody?"
"Uh, yeah, why?"
"No reason..." May put her earbud back in and continued to listen for a few seconds until Dawn tapped her on the shoulder, interrupting her again.
"What?" May growled, this time, more agitated.
"Um...just, who, exactly do you like?"
"Why do I have to say?"
"Um...because you're my best friend?"
"Fine. I like Brendon Urie. Happy?"
"No, I mean real person!"
"He is a real person!"
Dawn grabbed her hair, exasperated.
"No, I mean someone you know!"
"I like lots of people. For example, I like Max because he's my brother and I have to like him. I like Drew because he helped me become better at contests. I also like Brendon Urie because he's hot and makes awesome music,"
"Urgh! I mean like-like!"
"I'll get back to you," May closed her eyes again and turned up the volume on her iPod.
Dawn sighed. May is as stubborn as a mule. She then closed her eyes, too, and fell into a light sleep.

A few hours later, Dawn woke up to Panic! at the Disco blaring and May's horrible off-key singing:
"The death of a bachelor, oh-oh-oh, letting the water fall! The death of a bachelor, oh-oh-oh, seems so fitting for a happily ever after-ooh! How could I ask for-"
"May! I'm trying to sleep here!" Dawn yelled from the loveseat.
"Oops, sorry," May apologized. "Would 'This Is Gospel' be better?"
Dawn moaned, threw off her blanket, and slowly slid off the sofa. "Ugh, everybody knows My Chemical Romance is better,"
"You didn't,"
"Oh, I did,"
The two teens then started loudly bickering. They did this a lot, so much that they gave it a name: The Battle of the Bands.
"MCR broke up!"
"P!ATD replaced a bunch of people!"
"P!ATD has more albums!"
"MCR has more EPs!"
"P!ATD is still playing!"
"Did you decide yet?"
May was taken aback by Dawn's spontaneous question. "W-what?"
"You know, that question I asked you. You said, 'I'll get back to-"
"I know. You just surprised me."
"So? Do you have an answer?"
May thought for a moment. She stared at Dawn for a moment, and decided to go for it.
May softly kissed Dawn, plain, chapped lips meeting pink, plump ones.
After a couple minutes they broke away, stunned.
"Twenty One Pilots wins," May said out of the blue, and Dawn burst into laughter.
"I like you too, May,"
Thanks a bunch to twerpish for suggesting an awesome method to get out of writer's block! I got a decent ContestShipping idea out of it and tried to write it, but then it turned into this SapphirePearlShipping oneshot! School is starting very soon, so I'll update less, but I'll still try!
TØP always wins. thanks for reading, frens |-/
update: oh my gosh this is so cringy, I knew like nothing about MCR (or really, Panic!) yikes
