I posted my fanfic at serebii too, but anyway. It's my first fic, after lots and lots of inspiration. It might sound somewhat not original, but its based on the chinese folk story The Butterfly Lovers.
Synopsis: May and Drew meet on the ferry on the way to their next Grand Festival. It's been about five years since their one in Hoenn, and Robert has retired after winning 3 times. Drew wins his first GF in the previous Grand Festival. After 3 tries, May finally gets past the Top 4 and advances into Top 2. Anyway, the ship sinks, forcing the two to share a lifeboat while finding land. Finally coming upon an unknown region, they have no choice but to wait for a cruise ship that wouldn't be dropping by the area for another couple of months. They stay near the region and wait the months out.

Butterfly Lovers
A golden trophy cup, intricately trimmed in solid gold, sat inside a previously polished glass display box gleamed alluringly towards a teenaged girl who lingered nearby. Approaching the box, she lifted her hands and placed them carefully on the box, while gently leaning forward.
"Hmm, this time I won't lose the Grand Festival!" she stated to herself, her eyes sharpening from the determination from those words.
"Enthusiasm won't get you anywhere, but hey, I see that you've made it into the Grand Festival again. I'm quite surprised," a new voice sneered. Whipping herself around, the girl came to realize she was face to face with her greatest rival, Drew. There he stood, his hands in his pockets, nonchalantly looking at May, his green hair nearly covering his eyes, yet at the same time neatly pulled away from his face. Though it had been many years since they had first met, he had kept the same clothes, a lightweight purple jacket with a black shirt underneath, along with turquoise pants. She gave him a head to toe look, all while thinking, It's been 5 years since our first Grand Festival together, you'd think he'd show me a little more respect by now!
"I've seen you at every Grand Festival since the Hoenn one so many years ago, I'm every bit as good as a coordinator as YOU!" her voice rising in a steady crescendo, until she was practically shouting. The girl towered over Drew, standing on her tippy toes with her fist clenched- she was almost about to hit him.
" Yeah, but you've also lost to me all five times in the Grand Festival Miss Coordinator. I don't recall YOU taking home a Ribbon Cup yet, whereas I've got one already. Anyway MAY, I'd check your skirt if I were you," Drew replied, still smirking. May shrunk back, confused at what he said about her skirt.
"What do you mean, my skirt? It's perfectly fine.." May trailed off, while slightly turning crimson.
" Look in the mirror genius, I'm not going to point it out for you," laughed Drew as he gave his trademark two fingered wave while sauntering away.
Ugh That Drew, he never changes does he? Well, I'll show him, May thought, passing by a full-length mirror. Her eyes glanced at the mirror before abruptly stopping. Jaw dropping and eyes widening, she realized that from all the excitement of boarding the ferry to the Grand Festival, she had put on her skirt inside out. She turned bright red and cried out from embarrassment before racing back to her quarters.
Inside her room, she quickly changed her skirt so that it was put on the right way. Sighing to herself, she examined herself in the bathroom mirror, to make sure she didn't have any other appearance faux pas. May wore a red zip-up shirt and a white skirt that hugged her tightly above the knees. Her hair was tied up into two parts, and she had a bandana that she tied on her head-it was her trademark. Strangely enough for May, she had slight dark circles underneath her eyes, for she couldn't sleep the night before from all the excitement she had to endure. Regardless, she would try to remain energetic throughout the day.
Down at the dining hall, Drew sat with his Roselia, taking bites out of his dinner while chuckling to himself. He could only imagine May's reaction was when she saw her skirt. It was almost as though he could hear her scream when she checked herself. Still laughing, he was interrupted by a quick slap in the head- it pushed his face into the table. Looking over, he saw May standing over him, with her hands on her hips.
"Why didn't you tell me! It's not like anything was showing!!! Did you know how many people looked at me funny the whole time?!?!" she yelled.
"Your fault you were so careless that you put on your CLOTHES wrong!" retorted Drew. May browsed around the hall before realizing all seats were taken. She grabbed the rest of Drew's dinner and huffily sat down next to Drew, before commencing to eat his dinner.
"HEY!! What do you think you're doing?!" he shouted, yanking his dinner back.
"Fine, let me starve," she whined, and sat silently next to him, arms crossed. Drew took one glance at May before bursting out in laughter again.
She glared at him, "WHAT NOW?!"
"Nice bra strap May," he teased, "Did you tear your shirt on the way out?"
"AAGGHHHHHH" May growled, turning red. She slammed her hands on the table, before saying , "I'm so tired of you!! I'm going to bed." Drew stared at her while she ran away, only slightly aware that the entire hall had quieted down and were observing the previous commotion. Waves of giggles spread, and Drew turned pink as he realized people were whispering about May and him.
Behind her room door, May leaned against her door and buried her face in her hands. What now?, they both thought to themselves as they stared off into space (thinking of the day's events).

I have two chapters written actually, but I'll see how this one goes over here first. :) I look forward to see what you guys have to say to help me get better.
