May turned around after she felt someone tapping on her shoulder and found Lord Brendan standing behind her.

"May I have this dance, My Lady?" Brendan asked as he held out his hand.

May looked at his hand and was about to take it before someone else grabbed her waist and dragged her into the dance floor. She looks up and finds Gary looking at her and holding her hands as he guides into the dance floor. She notices Prince Drew was dancing with Leaf.

"Mind explaining what happened?" May asked as she noticed that there were only four pairs dancing on the floor, Gary and May, Leaf and Prince Drew, Ash and Dawn, and Paul and Misty.

"We are having a circle dance. It means we switch partners with our neighbors in every pause. Of course, it is my duty to get you into this dance and save a dance for Prince Drew," Gary explained with a smirk.

"That sounds fun," May said.

"Well, you know, you did grab Prince Drew's attention a lot. Do you know that Prince Drew talks about you?" Gary asked.

"You know, you really should stop flirting with other girls. You are Leaf's husband!" May exclaimed.

"I liked it when Leaf was jealous. Wait. How did you know?" Gary replies.

"Leaf told me," May replies.

"Too bad that this has to end. I will talk with you later," Gary said as he bows and goes dance with Misty and Paul takes his place.

"You better take good care of Dawn or I will smack you with a pan. I am not afraid to use it!" I scowled at Paul.

"Hm..."

"Can't you just say a yes or a no? I am surprised that Dawn likes you. I always thought that she likes a happy-go-lucky type of guy but I guess I was wrong. I am happy to see her like this," May said.

"I will protect her and help her happy," Paul said in a low voice. May's eyes widen as she looks at Paul, surprised that Paul was talking in a whole sentence and to her.

May smiled and said, "I know you will. I will not help you if I don't."

Paul gives May a small smile in return. "I can see why His Highness has fallen in love with you."

"That is nice to know," May said and they bowed at each other and went to another partner.

Ash was taking Paul's place and they started dancing. Ash looks excited and May smiles.

"No wonder Misty loves this guy," May said.

"I am so glad to finally meet you, Maybelle! Prince Drew always talks about you and I was wondering what you look like! I am so happy that you are the one to take his heart!" Ash exclaimed.

"That sounds creepy. After all, he is a pretty nice guy but is very arrogant," May said.

"You will like him once you know him. He is not all that bad," Ash said.

"I can see that," May replies. "When will you propose to Misty? I heard that you two have been dating for two tears and nothing really happens."

"I am still thinking. I don't know. I mean, I want to but I don't know when," Ash said.

"You better do soon before she gets taken away by someone else!" May advised.

"I will! It has been a great time talking to you!" Ash exclaimed as they bowed and moved with their original partners.

Prince Drew was standing in front of May in Ash's place and they bowed before taking each other's hand. They can feel a spark when their hand meets. May was smiling while Prince Drew had a little blush.

"Someone is shy," May teased.

"Who said I am? You should feel honored that you are dancing with a handsome prince like me," Prince Drew retorted.

May giggled. "You should feel honored that I didn't decide to reject your dance."

"You really are a strange girl," Prince Drew murmured.

"What's a bad thing? Would you rather I act like one of your fangirls?" May teased.

"No!" Prince Drew exclaimed and May giggled.

"I am not, don't worry. You are not something I would like to fangirl over," May said.

"Why?" Prince Drew asked.

"Why should I fangirl over someone who is right in front of me? I only fangirl something I know I will never have. You can act casual in front of me. I don't mind. You are not a robot. You are a human being with feelings," May answered. Prince Drew's eyes grow wide as he stares into May's sapphire blue orbs. Prince Drew blushes as they dance around the floor, not noticing the death glares that Lord Brendan had sent in their way.

The music soon ends and the couples soon bows and other people begin to join in. Lady Brianna grabs Prince Drew's left arm and pulls him to the dance floor to dance with her while May is left alone, chuckling under her hand. Seeing Lady Brianna trying to get Prince Drew's attention was cute yet sad. Lord Brendan took this chance to walk toward May.

"Does my lady feel okay? You seem tired," Lord Brendan said.

May turned toward him and made a quick bow. "The party is fun today, I hope you enjoy yourself. Thank you for worrying about me. I am fine. It is just that I never danced this long before."

"I see. I can take that my lady doesn't like parties that much." Lord Brendan asked.

"More or less," May agreed.

"Why don't we go to the garden where we can have some fresh air?" Lord Brendan offered.

"That seems like a good idea."

May and Lord Brendan walk to the balcony and stand there under the moonlight where the moon is full and its light shines in May, making her look like a goddess. Lord Brendan stared at her and took in the beauty. May is one of a kind.

They stayed there for a while before Lord Brendan started talking.
