Happy (very, VERY late) Valentines Day! Yeah, I've been "kinda inactive" lately. But, as promised, I'm working on the greens Valentines special! I got started on it on Feb 13/14—it's taking me a reeeeaaaal long time, I know—but I'll explain all that when I actually post the whole thing up. nun;
Sadly, no; this isn't the actual story. I decided I'd give y'all a quick snippet as I keep working on the actual story (and Math...and French...and Art Contest entries...), but so yeah, I hope you'll enjoy this "sneak peek"! Oh and by the way, the story is coming along beautifully. ;)
"Yup," Boomer said, nodding. "We just need some arrows and some paper; that's all."
At the time, I thought he seriously meant real arrows—yes, I know; I was stupid; shut up about it.
So imagine my disappointment when he revealed to me his so-called "arrows".
"No more anti-Cupid!" Boomer announced, smirking. "Time for Mr. Cupid to strike!"
I stared at the items before looking up and staring at Boomer for a few moments. I raised an eyebrow. "...Seriously?" I finally said.
"Seriously!" he confirmed cheerfully. "I have to help with some other people first, but Bubbles is here to assist you!"
Here, let's backtrack a little so this will make a little more sense.
Imagine a bored, spiky black-haired boy casually strolling down the sidewalks of the busy streets of Townsville.
Yeah, that was me. I was trying to avoid lovers who were making out and practically sucking each others' faces off.
...No such luck.
Okay, yeah; so I am a flirt...well, maybe—just MAYBE—even a playboy.
But that doesn't mean I have a freakin' lover! I wasn't ready for that yet! I didn't need that kind of commitment in my life yet; I just needed some hot lady to make me happy!
So yeah, I'm getting off-track. So I was walking with my hands stuck in my pockets, casually checking out stores and trying to figure out what I wanted to do as I shuffled down the streets the way boys did.
...Y'know, the usual.
As I was passing by one of Townsville's most famous parks, called Townsville Park (yeah, REAL original—I know), I heard a noise.
Okay, so there was noises all around me! Chirping and barking and purring and voices and cars...yeah, you get the picture! But these noises were...different. They weren't exactly ordinary. I mean, there was yelling and slicing and hitting.
So obviously, that wasn't very normal... But then again, it was pretty common in Townsville.
I ended up giving into my curiosity—I know, it was really stupid of me at the time; curiosity killed the cat, after all. But I just wanted to see what was going on! And besides, it DID lead to the other events which will lead to one of the best—and worst—things in my life.
It turned out it was Buttercup (no duh), practicing her moves against trees. I stood there for a few minutes, just leaned back the way boys are, hands in my pockets. I remember feeling bad for those trees and anyone who might have to face Buttercup like that... Little did I know, I could've ended up like one of those trees.
After awhile of her not noticing me and killing trees, my patience ran to its end. So I finally decided to speak: "Hey, Butterbabe."
So that's it for today, folks! Again, this isn't the whole thing, so relax! There'll be more soon (hopefully VERY soon)! xD
So I hope you've all enjoyed this and look forward to more! :D
