Stella fastened a small pink ribbon back through her ponytail and pulled it tight. She waddled lightly around her new house and saw her parents directing people to places. She watched a mover attach a small lighthouse themed calender to the wall. In two months, she'd be 6. She toddled around the house and dug up the stairs into her new room. She peered lazily out the window and saw two small childish figures watching the fussel. One was a small redheaded girl and the other was a taller brown haired boy. Stella double timed down the stairs and ran to them. "Hi!" She yelled happily to have found company. The girl with red hair pushed in dimples with a wide smile, "Hiyah! I'm Bloom!" She cheered loudly. The brown haired boy smiled down to her also, "I'm Brandon." Bloom growled from the loss of attention. "He's my older brother, he's 7, I'm 6. Wanna play?" She said no questions asked. Stella simply smiled and nodded. Brandon shook his head and walked Bloom back across the street and then walked back into the house.
*****Bloom and Stella grew up together and remained best friends through everything. When Brandon was 13, their parents got a divorce and he moved in with his dad.*****
Bloom glared at the stars that dimmed in the sky and twisted her fingers around a loose shingle. Stella sat up and pretended to grab the moon, "I wanna go to the moon one day." She smiled and laid her back down on the roof. Bloom chuckled and clutched a star. "I wanna own a planet." She giggled. Stella's ears perked up as a truck rumbled up Bloom's driveway. "BRANDON!" Bloom yelled and slid down the roof and to the truck. Stella looked at Bloom's actions, baffled and confused. She walked to the front of the house and saw Bloom embracing Brandon. Stella's jaw dropped, right there, on Bloom's roof was the first time she was Brandon in 6 years. He wasn't the same. Apparently, the gym consumed him, for his muscles were being clutched by his sleeves and his abs pushed an imprint into the shirt. His jaw line was formed into a perfect sculption and his hair was smooth and had long brown tassles in the front. But the only things left untouched were his chocolate brown eyes and his award winning smile. Stella slid down the side of the roof and adjusted her top. She smiled polietly to Brandon whose jaw hung lightly. "Stella?" He chuckled and waltzed over to her. He side embraced her and she hugged him across his chest.
She changed too. Her pigtails grew out bright blonde to her waist and she pushed up a foot to 5'7. She lost her puppy fat but gained boobs and beauty. She looked to Bloom who was walking inside and followed her quickly.
After they ate, Bloom crowded them into the living room and pulled out 3 stacks of photo albums. Brandon pulled one open and they sifted for hours. Stella traced her finger over one of her and Brandon jumping off a dock. He watched her but didn't say anything. After 3 hours of memories, Brandon went to bed. Stella walked to Bloom's room and changed into her pjs. Her and Bloom fell asleep around 3 AM and Stella woke up around 4 to go get a drink. She saw a light come from the kitchen and switched into ninja mode. She crouched down near the island in the kitchen and twisted around it to come face-to-ass with Brandon. He was drinking out of the milk carton and she straighten her back up. She tapped his shoulder and he jerked around, scared. "Stella! Don't do that!" He laughed. Stella wasn't laughing, she was oggling. His body was more perfect when his shirt was off and his boxers were low on his hips. She snapped her gaze back up to his face and smiled.
"Sorry," She laughed a little.
He laughed a little back, "I'm just kidding," He chuckled and pulled her into a hug. "Ahhhh, it's been was to long." He said wrapping his arms tight around her. She touched his toned back and inhaled his manly smell. "Way too long." She murmered, sifting too deep in the moment. He pulled away and chuckled. "Night Stell," He smiled and walked away. She sighed and ran back into Bloom's bedroom.
Stella rolled over on her side and her eyes fluttered open. A small piece of paper was folded up and said Stella on the front. She pulled it open and it said in lazily ink pen:
Morning Stella! You wouldn't wake up! I'm getting us Doughnuts at Glazzers then stopping Sky's. ttyl!Ily!
She smiled and shook her head. She clutched her small heart necklace and took a deep breath. She got up and walked smoothly to the kitchen and looked around. Brandon walked up behind her and gave her a half hug. "Heyyyy," He chuckled. She smiled as the butterflies ate at her stomach's remains.
"Yooo." She laughed and hugged him back. "Wanna hang today?" He said quickly.
She smiled eagerly and nodded too quickly. "I mean, that'd be awesome." She laughed lightly. "What do you wanna do?" She smiled dreamily.
"Dock Party? Me and You?" He said with a cheeky smile.
"Let's Do It!" She laughed and waltzed out the door and across the street and into her house.
She rummaged through all of her bathing suits and pulled out a tiny light blue bikini, she shook her head and stuffed it back. She kept digging through and pulled out a respectable blue and yellow cross top bikini. She yanked it on and ran back over to Bloom's house. She pushed the door open and saw Brandon stretching his arms behind his back and his stomach muscles were tensing. Stella felt the blood rush to her face and she blushed from the fact that she was blushing. "Yo!" She yelled, then blushing more from her own stupidness.
He turned around and smiled, "Yo Yo!" He laughed and pushed on her back out the door and guided her into his truck.
He looked at her and smiled, "Ready?"
