Hey Guys. This is my new story. It's called The Player's Game. Hope you like it.

"Mom, I'm going to the mall with Dawn and Misty." May called as she walked out the door.

"Can you promise me you'll try to find a boyfriend?" Her mom called.

May cheeks went red. "MOM," she screamed. "Stop! We've talked about this."

"Talking won't stop me from saying anything." Her mother called.

"May," Her father said, "Don't listen to your mother."

"Thank you." May said.

"You are going to stay single for the rest of your life and you'll live with me for the rest of your life." May went to her dad and hit her with her purse.

Her mother said, "You're 26. You've been out of college for a while."

"I know." May said.

"And you haven't had a boyfriend since high school."

"No need to remind me." May said. "Goodbye. Don't expect me back soon." May slammed the door, got into her car and drove off.

"OK. So what should we wear to Ash's home warming party, Friday?" Misty asked.

"Isn't that why we're here?" Dawn asked. "We'll find something."

"First." May said. "I think you should look in that store, Misty." May pointed to the Victoria Secret store. Dawn and May laughed while Misty blushed.

"Ha ha ha, May." Misty said still blushing. "Very funny. I don't live with him… yet."

"Oooh," Dawn said smirking. "Is Misty being a naughty girl?"

"Why haven't you told us, Misty? He asked you."

"Yea. Last week."

"And why didn't you tell us?"

"You never asked." Misty said.

"Oh well then I guess, Misty has to find something sexy for Friday." May said.

"Let's start with Macy's." After walking into the store, May's eyes gleamed.

"I think this will be perfect for Misty to wear." It was a black and grey stripped sweater short sleeve dress. "You look great in black and if your hair is out and flowing, Ash'll love it." May didn't notice there was someone behind her watching her.

"I love it." Misty put it up to her looking at it. "And it'll go perfectly with the new shoes I got it Cerulean."

May smiled and they continued shopping.

May was still being watched when she walked into the dressing room to try on the dress she picked out. He sat down on one of the couches that were outside the dressing room and pretended to be on his cell phone while her friends waited. May immediately came out of the dressing room and did a quick turn.

"How does this look?" May smiled.

"Wow. You'll be the envy at the party."

"You won't be single for long." Dawn said.

"Thank you." May smiled.

"Excuse me, miss." The young man said taking of his sunglasses. May looked at him. "You look nice."

"Thank you." May was about to walk away when she heard him say something else.

"All you need to do is fix your hair." May turned around at his cold remark.

"Excuse me?" May crossed her arms angry.

"I'm sorry… that didn't come out right." He said even though he did think she was cute when she was mad. "Can I start over?" May nodded. "I'm Drew." He held out her hand.

"May." She shook his hand.

"Look I'm really sorry about what I said. I just wanted to… ask you out."

"Excuse me?" May crossed her arms again.

"To apologize for what I said."

"I'm sorry… Drew… but-"

"Just give me one chance." He said. "If you still hate me then I won't ever say another word to you."

"What if I say no?"

"I'll keep asking you." May paused. "How about this? I'll let you think about it and I'll give you my number so you can call if you say yes."

"She'll do it." Misty said.

"Yeah we'll make sure of it." Dawn said and gave him, May's cell phone. "Put your number in here and she'll call you."

"Why did you do that?"

"Because you haven't been on a date since college."

"So."

"So, that was at least a year ago." Dawn replied. May just pouted. "Come on, May. He was kinda cute."

"Yeah. I guess." May said.

"Call him." Misty said.

"NO!"

"Come on."

"NO!!!"

"May's just a scardie cat. She's scared to fall in love." Dawn said.

"How did you come up with that scenario?"

"Because you aren't going to call him. So you're scared he may like you and fall in love with you."

"That sounds right." Misty agreed with Dawn.

"No it's not."

"Then call him."

"Fine." May dialed his number and waited for Drew to pick up.

"Hello." Drew answered his phone. May paused. She couldn't say anything. "Hello… Is anyone there?"

May froze. Misty hit her back so she would say something. "Hello… It's May… Yeah. I thought about it… Yes. How about tonight?"

"Perfect… where do you live… so I can pick you up." Drew was at the checkout line. "Ok… Perfect… I'm with my sister. She's getting back to school clothes… her name's Stephanie." Stephanie tried to sneak the mini skirt in the pile of clothes. "Don't even try it." Stephanie ran away pouting. "… Not you May. My sister trying to sneak something into the millions of clothes she bought."

May smiled and laughed. "I know what you mean. I have a little brother. Annoying as hell…" May smiled. "Well. You seem busy. Call me back when you're done taking your sister shopping… bye… see ya than." May hung up the phone. "There, happy."

"Very." Dawn said.

"I have an idea." Misty smirked. "We each have our guys. I have Ash. Dawn has Paul. Now, May has Drew. Let's play a game."

"Cool. I love games!"

You can only get this once a day. 5 points for a cheek kiss or a peck on the lips. 10 points for a passionate kiss. 15 points for a Romantic date that includes candles and flowers. 20 points introductions to parents as a girlfriend. Any questions?"

"Yeah." May asked, "Why are we doing this?"

"Because it'll be fun. Are you in love with him?"

"NO!"

"Then don't worry about it." Misty said.

"How do you win?"

"First to one hundred points wins." They all agreed.
