"Bubbles?"
"What?"
"What will it take for you to just... trust me?"
The blonde crosses her arms, "Does it even matter?"

"Bubbles..."
"Why would you care? I'm not as strong as she is... Nor as tough..."
"What are you-?"
"Compared to that tough Brute, I amount to nothing... Don't act like you weren't checking her out..."

The girl looked down. She couldn't bare to stare back at him.
She was making a complete fool of herself... That, she knew...

"Tell me... What is it you admire most about her?"
More like, What does she have that I don't? Why can't you just like me?

"Her strength and toughness... but..."
"But?"
"She's nothing compared to you... I admire your kindness and how you always see the good in people... Whether or not they deserve a second chance... You're not quick to judge like all others."

He suddenly pulled her into an embrace...

"B-Butch... I-" she blushed, staring sweetly at him...
He shushed her as he pressed his lips firmly to hers...
She slowly gave in, feeling as if she finally had him where she wanted him...

"Butch?", she slowly pulled away...
"Hm?", he stared at her questioningly...
"I admire your straightforwardness..." she smiled...
