Hooray! It's the last chapter! Anyway, enjoy the last chapter!
Okay, I don't really know why I said "Hooray". It feels sort of sad to me that this story is coming to a close. I always get so emotional at the end. *tear*
I'll try to make this long-ish like I said I would. I'll also try not to make the ending TOO cheesy. I tend to do that xD
I hope you guys will be happy with the complete story

The first thing May saw when she woke up was red.
That's strange, she thought to herself. But then she smelt the pleasant aroma that wafted over from the red and into her nose and she immediately knew what it was.
A rose, of course.
Wait, why is there a rose by my head? The girl wondered, becoming slightly confused. Then she realized she was lying down and in a bed. Why am I in a bed?
May then opened her eyes a bit more and turned over on her back. Immediately, she shut her eyes and rolled back over. Ouch, my eyes, she thought. That light is SO bright!
Ow.
Oh, OWCH. May's head suddenly throbbed at her temples, causing her to moan. I never get headaches, what the heck? When she did get headaches, they were usually un-painful and lasted under half an hour. But this time, her head felt like it contained a monster inside it that was trying to fight its way out. Every throb was a claw tearing something in her head. This headache sure seemed like it was only getting worse as the seconds ticked on by.
Tick.
Tick.
Tick.
The seconds trickled on, and May swore she could hear it happen.
Tick.
Tick.
They were getting louder every time.
Tick.
Tick.
Tick.
Stop ticking!! She thought furiously, shoving her head under a pillow, sending the ruby red rose flying to the ground.
Tick.
Tick.
The pain increased.
Tick.
Owwww.
Tick.
Tick.
Stop it…
Tick.
Tick..
Tick…
"STOP FRICKEN TICKING!!!" May thundered, ripping the pillow off of her head and chucking it as hard as she could in a random direction out of frustration. The ticking abruptly stopped.
"May, what are you shouting about?"
May looked up to see Drew standing above her, wearing his green and white plaid boxers and a plain back shirt. May noticed his facial expression was concerned, which confused her. Once she registered that thought, she realized how confused she really was.
"The ticking… It… It stopped." May realized slowly, finally replying.
"Yeah, because you knocked it straight off of the wall," Drew smirked. May looked at him questioningly. I knocked the ticking sound off of the wall? How does that make any sense?
"Huh?" May asked stupidly, cocking her disheveled head to one side.
"Not so bright today, are you?" Drew mocked, and then walked over to the wall near the door. He bent down and picked up a wooden clock. "You threw that pillow and it hit the clock."
"Oh," May responded. That makes sense.
Drew put the batteries back into the clock and set it back onto the wall. The infuriating ticking noise recommenced.
"Ugh, please, no. I think my head's going to explode," she moaned, flopping back down on the bed.
"Go figure," he muttered to himself in an amused way. But he took the batteries back out of the clock and set them on the end table in between the beds.
May then realized she must be in one of the Pokémon Center's rooms. She recognized it from the basic layout that all of the rooms contained. But this befuddled her; she didn't remember going to sleep last night in a bed. As a matter of fact, she didn't remember going to sleep at all last night…
What the hell happened last night? May thought suddenly, horrified. Okay, okay, calm down, just breathe. What was the last thing I remembered doing?
She racked her brain for a second. Trick or treating… Going to Prudence's party… Talking to people… Then… Then… Oh, crap.
She looked up to Drew, alarmed. His arms were crossed and he was leaning back with a smirk on his face like he was really enjoying what he was seeing. This angered May slightly.
"What… Why am I here? What happened at Prudence's? Why I don't I remember? What-"
Drew cut her off by putting his finger to her lip. She glared up at him furiously.
"No need to panic," he replied before sitting down beside her. "It seems as though you had… a rough night."
Why is he still smirking?? May thought. Then she started freaking out. "A rough night? What? Why? Oh Mew, what the heck? Drew, I'm confused, I-"
"Didn't I just say not to panic?" Drew asked, pushing her lightly so she'd lie back down. "You're quite unusually dim at the moment. I think you killed one too many brain cells last night." There was the smirk again.
"Brain cells?"
Drew just sighed, and then chuckled to himself.
"You idiot, tell me why I can't remember everything! Before I come to conclusions!" May added sternly.
The green haired boy leaned back against the wall, waiting. "Let's hear them, then."
"What? No, just-just tell me!" May argued, her frustration rearing up again.
"What do you think happened?"
"Why are you being like this? Just tell me!" May kicked her foot at Drew and the blow landed on a very, very painful place for him. Score, she thought satisfyingly.
"Ow! Holy shit May, you didn't have to kick me in balls!" Drew yelped, squeezing his eye shut due to the pain.
"You deserved it. I have a right to know."
"Jeez, I was kidding!" Drew glared at her. He then got up and hobbled to the bathroom, still clutching his nether regions.
May heard the tap run for a second. Then Drew appeared holding a full glass of water and two pills in his hand. "Here, before I forget. Take these and drink all of this water. It'll help."
My glared at him but took it anyway.
Once she had gulped down all of the water, which felt refreshingly pleasant, she sat up and glared at Drew.
Suddenly, and very unexpectedly, Drew burst out chuckling. May was in half a mind to kick him in the groin once more, but she knew he'd need everything down there one day. So she just let out a sad little moan and did her puppy eyes. It always worked on Drew.
Drew sighed a little and then looked at her. "It was highly amusing," he drawled, the corners of his mouth pulling up again. Stop grinning, you idiot, May thought.
"What was amusing?"
"You."
"Why?"
"Because you were trashed out of your mind," Drew snorted and looked at her with amusement.
"Why- what- NO I WASN'T, WHAT?!?"
Drew then explained to May about drinking all of that lemonade mix, which, essentially, contained heavy amounts of vodka. He told her about her crazy mood swings and her acting really unlike herself. May blushed and retorted when he said she kept trying to make out heavily with him and take off her clothes.
"I did not!" she said, crossing her arms.
"Yes, you did," Drew chuckled. "It was pretty funny. And also hard to resist," he added and winked slightly.
"Oh man," May rolled her eyes. "Anyway, continue?"
Drew then recounted all the times she went missing and when he finally found her outside, being cornered by the drunk, creepy men. May gasped at this.
"Good timing," she snorted. "I could have been like, raped!" she shuddered.
Drew growled darkly. "You have no idea how much I wanted to punch those idiots," he spat vehemently.
May glowed with slight pride at that comment. He's so protective… Such a prince.
"Anyway, then I whisked you away on Flygon. You threw up a lot, and then we came here," Drew finished.
"Wow," May breathed, overwhelmed.
"Wow," Drew agreed, nodding. He then smirked slightly. "I should get at least a 'thank you'. Not many people would put up with that. I had to keep track of you all night and hold back your hair while you puked up your guts."
May just rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah, you're all great and noble, whatever."
"I didn't hear a 'thank you, Drew, you're the best!' in that."
"And you're not going to get one." May smirked. Suddenly, she leaned over the side of her bed, alarmed. She put a hand to her stomach in fright.
The grin slipped off of Drew's face and the retort off of his tongue. "What's wrong?"
May held up a hand, motioning for Drew to wait. She sighed in relief for a second, but then her eyes widened. Her head started to pound extra painfully again and her vision blurred. "I think- I think I'm going to-" She couldn't complete her sentence. It was crucial that her mouth stayed close for the next five seconds that it took her to race to the bathroom. Once she was in there, she dashed straight to the toilet.
Drew winced as he heard the contents of May's stomach make contact with the water. In attempt to lighten the atmosphere some what, he said, "Don't expect me to kiss you for another twenty four hours."
May moaned in reply.
"Are you okay?" Drew peeked his head into the bathroom after a couple of minutes.
May was rinsing her mouth out with water. "Where's my toothbrush?"
"I'll get it, hold on."
Drew returned with her toothbrush and toothpaste and handed it to her. She took it and whined, "I feel like death, Drew." He lips fell down in a little pout.
"Well, that's what you get for getting drunk."
May glowered at him as she started to brush her teeth violently. "I didn't do it on purpose," she said through the toothpaste.
"Uh huh," Drew replied in mock disbelief. He exited the bathroom after hitting the fan switch; there was only so much vomit smell he could take.
Drew sauntered in between the two beds. He noticed the rose he had placed by his girlfriend's head last night laying on the ground, so he picked it up off of the ground. He tidied May's bed a little more and placed the rose on the head pillow.
Once May was done, she crawled back into bed, shoving the rose aside. It fell to the floor once more.
"Going to back to bed already? But the day has only just begun," Drew smirked.
"My head is murdering me," came May's muffled reply from under the covers.
Drew picked up the rose off of the floor again, sighed, and then set it on the table. Suddenly, May's phone started to ring from her backpack on the floor.
"Do you want me to get that?" Drew asked May. She looked like she was already half asleep.
"No, just hand it to me, please."
Drew took out her blue phone and looked at the screen. His face twisted into an expression of disgust. "It's Prudence- are you really sure you want to answer this?"
May contemplated in silence for a moment. She seemed to come to a decision. "Give it to me," she said, trying to be firm in her weak voice.
Drew furrowed his brows but did as she said. May rolled over and propped herself up with her elbows. She hit the answer button on the phone, then the speakerphone button.
"Hello?" May said sweetly into the phone.
"May, hun, how are you feeling?" came Prudence's voice. Drew looked at May sharply. Was he the only one who had heard the malice in Prudence's voice?
"I'm feeling like shit, Prudence, thanks!" May said in a mock bright and cheery voice. "So, I don't care why you're calling. But I have something to say, so listen up." May didn't wait for Prudence's reply. She just continued. "Let's get a few things straight. One, you looked like a total trashy hoe at the party last night. Two, I'm going to kick your butt at the next contest. And three, you're a bitch. Goodbye!" May said sweetly into the phone before hanging up.
Drew was flabbergasted.
May smiled and then turned around. "No one messes with me," she said furiously, then closed her eyes and commenced snoring.
That was… fierce, Drew thought. There simply wasn't any other word for it. Normally May wasn't one to say anything mean, even when she was mad. But she had just really stood Prudence up this time. Maybe she felt so sick that she couldn't hold back anything she wanted to say. Still, he was prouder than he could have ever been.
Drew bent down and kissed May on the cheek. He said quietly, "That's my girl."
He was just closing the door to the bathroom when he heard a faint mumbled come from May's bed. "So much for not kissing me for twenty-four hours. I'm too hard to resist for even ten minutes."
Drew smirked and threw another rose at her just for the hell of it before shutting the door behind him.

Hmm, not as epic of an ending as I wanted it to be. Oh well. Usually my endings are super cheesy so this was quite different for me xD At least it was somewhat long. I expected it only to be a page or two.
Anywhoooo, I hope you all had a great time reading this story! Please tell me what you think :)
If you want more Contestshippy stuff from me, check out my other stories. If you like Pokeships too, I have one of them. If you've already read my other stuff, you'll just have to hang tight xD.
I definitely have more stories on the way. I don't know when they'll be up, though. I'm planning a Christmas contestship, so that shouldn't be in too too long :)
Thank you all for reading! :)
