Marriage. A union between two people under the reign of a higher power. Some marry for power and money. Other marry for the one true reason. Love. Love... People say it makes you do crazy things. Those same people say you can't live without it. Others say love is for suckers when in reality, love is found everywhere. It starts at birth. You're mother loved you enough to give birth to you. That love carries on to when you really need it, trying to find your significant other... Some look for love, some don't. Some get struck with it and others push it away... Then there are others that accept it. Blossom, Buttercup, Bubbles, Boomer, Butch and Brick accepted it.. They took the vow that binds two together. Together forever.

Bubbles P.O.V

Today is the day! Today is the day of my one week vacation with my siblings and their counterparts. I was excited to get away from the bickering kids, crying babies and sick patients. Don't get me wrong, I love my job as a peditrician but I need a break. Boomer does too. Being in the office all day is never good for one person. Luckily, his receptionist is tagging along with her boyfriend. This is a chance for me to spend some quality time with my sisters. I see them ever noe and then, you know. Holidays, birthdays and special occasions but not like I would like to see them. Boomer and I were sitting, waiting for our flight. We were the only couple here. "What's taking them so long?"

"Oh Boomer calm down, the flight won't be here for another 45 minutes, they have plenty of time!" Boomer and I have been maried the longest. After I got pregnant at 16, we got married at 18 and have been ever since. We've been married for 16 years, yep I'm 34 now! Alot has happened...alot. I've had kids, twins actually and I love them to death. Blake and Brittney, two of the sweetest kids I've met. Boomer and I did good, if I must say. Boomer's voice pulled me back in reality.

"Here come the Reds" I quickly turn my head towards his direction and see my red headed sister, hand-in-hand with Brick. I smile, they were the power coupleof the group. Yeah, Boomer and I have been together the longest but Blossom and Brick were the couple we went to for any type of advice on marriage. Blossom always knew what to say and Brick was just as smart. They were our life savers, without them I don't think Butch and Buttercup would have made it down the aisle.

"Bubbles, I swear you don't age." Blossom pulled me into a tight hug.

"I do, trust me. You look worried, you okay?"

"Oh I'M fine, it's Bc and Butch. They were in the line and the created a scene..."

"Oh gosh what happened?"

"Don't worry about them, How have you been Bubs?" I hugged Brick. He's still the same red-head jock from highschool. Just a little older, strong and taller but the same nother-less.

"Great, infact". I look over to find a familiar brunette coming towards us. I let go of Brick and hold my arms out to Ashley. "You made it!"

"Of course!" She hugged me back. "I wouldn't miss something like this, a vacation to Hawaii?!" She turned to Boomer and gave him a slight hug. "Hey Boom"

"Hey Ash..."

"Ashley this is my sister, Blossom and her husband Brick. Blossom, Brick this is Boomer's receptionist Ashley and her boyfriend...?" I couldn't remeber his name, I was waitinf for him to fill-in the blank.

"Josh" They all shook hands.

"Boomer, you told me you had two brothers" Ashley was looking around . Then we heard a disturbing couple arguing.

"There they go.." The figures came closer and I was able to make them out as Buttercup and Butch. Butch wayyy ahead of Buttercup, trying to get away from her ranting." I wonder what they are arguing about now?!"

"Do they argue alot?" ashley was gonna get used to their ways..

"Yeah but the love each just as much if not more." They came closer and I could hear Buttercup's rants. Once she got close enough she stopped and her face lit up.

"Bubbles, Blossom!" She pushed her bags toward Butch and ran to hug us. "It's been forever!"

"Seem like it. Buttercup meet Boomer's receptionist Ashley" They shake hands.

"I've met you, once or twice since I'm in his office sometimes"

"Yea, i recongize you now. This is my soon-to-be divorced husband, Butch" We all smiled at the joke.

"This is my biyfriend, Josh' We all seperated, boy with the boys and girls with the girl.

"So Ashley how long have you and Josh been together?" Blossom was just starting conversation but the way she said is told me she had other intentions.

"It will be 4 years, tomorrow actually" Blossom and I squealed. "Yeah.."

"Have you two talked abut marriage?"

"Yeah, we talk about it but I don't know if he's gonna propse. We both agree that we're ready but I don't know what's next"

"Word of advice. Don't get married because then everything changes. You have to share shit, they want sex constantly and you can no longer get a lecture about being an independent woman. Those speeches are the best" Buttercup was sitting back, smirking.

"Don't listen to her!"

"You two know it's true..." We glared at her and she rolled her eyes.

"So BC, what were you and Butch arguing about?" Yeah, I'm a little noisy...

"He was being a bad husband, flirtting with the officer . It didn't help that she was pating him down."

"That's her job, Buttercup!"
"I know, that's why I got on him. Ever since he got that new job with sports center he's been getting too much 'attention' if you know what I mean"

'BC, he only has eyes for you. You know that..." Blossom patted her onthe back, reassuring her everything was gonna be fine.

"I know but there's just something in me thats' not settling well...Anyways, enough about me. Bubbles, how are the twins?"

"They are grown and I finally get my house back! No I'm kidding, they are the best. They leave for college in the fall"

"Together?"

"No, they are going to seperate colleges."

"Blossom, Buttercup do you have kids" Wrong question to ask Ashley! I forgot to go over to do's and don't's with her.. Blossom and Buttercup's face fell yet they try to keep themselves compsed.

"No" They said it in unison with a sad expression, Ashley quickly recongized she got into a touchy situation. She apoligize and they of course denied anything was wrong...like always.

Boomer's P.O.V

"So Josh, I love Ashley like a sister, so don't screw her over!"

"Never, I actually intent on marrying her..." My brothers and I just starred at him, in disbelief.

"You are willing to give you your sweet, sweet freedom for tis woman. I mean think about this man. None stop nagging, you gotta share shit, you can't walk around in your boxers all day, sex with the same woman for the rest of your life and you have to clean when she says clean." We stared at Butch.

"Is that what you go through, dude" Birck looked at him with a slight smile.

"The struggle is real." We all luaghed while Butch sat with a serious facial expression.

"He's just playing, marriage is a good thing, if with the right person. Are you sure she's the one?" Brick is always the one Butch and I tunr to for any type of advice. I don't know what it is, but he gives good advice.

"I'm sure, tomorrow's out 4 year adiversary so I'll propose tomorrow"

"No, don't do that. She'll expect it."

"No she won't. I don't she even know that I want to marry her"

"Oh she does. Women know everything. Even when they don't know they know. Trust me, you need to do it when she least expects it. When her guard is down and she's vunerable. Make sure it's beautiful adn romantic, if your girl's into that kin of stuff" Josh looked at Butch like he was crazy.

"Is that true?" He looked at Brick and I for answers, we nodded.

"He speaks the truth"

"Wow... So Boomer how is my little sister, Brittney?" Some people would think it's weird how closemy receptionist and I are but I don't think so. Yeah ashley and I have a past that Bubbles doesn't kow about but it's nothing. We're mature so it's nothing she need to know.

"Brittney is doing good, I'm thinking of buying her a car for when she leaves for college. I might get Blake a motorcycle...Maybe."

"That's cool...So Butch, BC hasn't put you in a casket yet?"

"I give myself a few more days. You know how we are, you minute she's ready to kill me, the next she's in the mood. You get something different every hour. What about you and Bloss?"

"We're going good" His mouth said one thing but his face said another... Is there something Brick isn't telling us?...

"Hey guy, come on our flight got called." Bubbles stood there with her bags in her hand. I swiftly went up to her, pecker her in the cheek while taking the bags from her hands. She smiles at me and went into the terminal..

We were trying to get siutation on the plane, seems we didn't get seated with our spouses like planned.. I was sitting with Blossom. Brick was with Buttercup who was cross from Butch and Ashley. Behind them were Bubbles and Josh. Out the video ended about safety, the pilot come up on the intercom and lights began to flash. "Ladies and Gentlemen, now is the time buckle your seatbelts. Once the lights go off, you are free to remove them. Until then please remain still and we will arrive in Hawaii shortly."

"Safety first!" Blossom gladly buckled seatbelt then exhaled deeply.

"First time flying?"

"Is it obvious?"

"Yeah, it is. It'll be fine, I promise." I give her a genuine smile, which she returned. Our touching moment was interrupted by an aggravated Buttercup.

"Brick, stop telling me to calm down. I'm fine!"

"Obviously not because your raising your voice"

"Well, stop trying to talk over me!"

"Ma'am, you've gotten complaints about your noise level. Could you please turn it down a bit?"

"I paid to get on the plane so damnit imma live it up while I'm here. Now, while you tell whoever was complaining to chill the fuck out, can you get me a drink. Champagne, sounds good. Oh no, a martini..."

"She'll take some water" Brick was trying to get the situation under wraps..

"I don't want no damn water, I wanna to drink. I'm on vacation!"

"would you like a Bahama Mama?" The flight attendant was feeding into her nonscene. I understand why, reguardless she gets a check...

"That would be lovely, glad you see things my way." The flight attentedant walked off with an emotionless facial expression.

I turned back around as I felt the plane raise in to the air. I look over at Blossom to see her breathing in and out of a bag. I slightly chuckled att he sight of her. She looked like a little girl... I face the seat infront of me as I began to feel the pressure... We went higher and higher...

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are now suspended in air, your seatbelts may be removed. Thanks you for choosing our airline and we will arrive in Hawaii shortly.." My family cheered with excitment while Blossom signed with relief. "Hawaii here we come!"

I had a shocking revealation about my stories, most of them are really depressing in some way or another. So I'm gonna write more optimistic stories. Romance scenes, fluff, all that gushy crap I don't usually write about. This is going out of my comfort zone, but I like a good challenge... Hope you enjoyed my story. so far, REVIEW!
