"Who should be my lab partner?" Momoko tapped her pencil against her lips. She sat at her desk and went through the list of guys she could choose but the image of Brick always got in the way. She groaned to herself and laid her head on her table. I don't like him, she thought to herself angrily and turned to look out the window. He was obnoxious and never listen to the rules, they had nothing in common, she was better off with someone who liked what she liked and followed the rules like she did.
Brick quickly ducked behind a tree when he saw her look his way. He let out the breath he was holding when she turned back. He was only watching over her, that why he was at her school, perched on tree staring at her. He only knew that he must have gone crazy, a bump to the head, or one too many pranks perhaps. There was no way he was there because he cared.
"Hey what are you doing up there?" Brick jumped a little and almost fell off the tree. He looked down and saw his brother Boomer that had blonde hair that flair to the side, bright blue eyes. He was also wearing a blue jacket that matched his own.
"What do you want Boomer?" Brick asked a little irritated.
"I was just going to walk Miyako home today when I saw you." Boomer and Miyako had started dating a month before despite what their father Mojo Jojo wanted and he then kicked them out of his home. The brother had gotten more mature since being kicked out of their father's home and none of them really blamed Boomer for them being kicked out.
"Is dad talking to you?" Boomer asked with a bitter tone which was odd for Boomer since he was the outgoing of the three.
"If he did I wouldn't be replying." The brothers were all loyal to each other and since Boomer love Miyako they resigned from causing the city trouble.
"Boomer!" They both turned as Miyako launched herself into Boomer's arms. He caught her and spun her in a circle laughing, all the anxiety about his father gone.
"How was your day?" He looked down into her vibrant blue eyes. Her blonde hair was tied into two short curly ponytails. She wore a white long sleeve shirt and blue skirt. Brick noticed the envious group of boys staring at Boomer but both Boomer and Miyako were oblivious to them.
Brick was about to leave silently but stopped when Miyako blurted out, "I can't believe Momoko chose Randy to be her lab partner. He's so gross and childish!"
"Who's Randy?" Even if he tried he couldn't hide the pain and shock in his voice.
"Randy is just this guy that sits behind her. Apparently they like the same shows so she asked him to be her partner. Though Kaoru and I don't like him."
Brick's mind started wondering to images of strangling the idiot that dare to so much as look at his girl while Miyako listed the various pranks Randy committed on the female students.
"Can you pick me up later?" Miyako's voice brought him out of his less than legal thoughts. "I have to help clean with the girls."
"I have a better idea, I'll help." Boomer offered.
"Okay." She smiled widely and dragged him to the classroom leaving Brick with his thoughts.
He kicked a rock and watched Blossom run out the door towards a guy with brown hair. He felt the stab of jealousy and turned away from the sight. If she wanted to be with an immature guy that didn't know her value, who was he to disagree but he couldn't help but look back at her. She had the longest red hair that he had ever saw that was tied into a ponytail with a big red bow.
Her belt beeped he could only imagine the outrageous excuse she made to go save the town again. He didn't know how people could be so obvious to of who was saving their town for his father day after day. He watched her fly off in the opposite direction of Miyako and Kaoru. He didn't know what she was doing but he just hopes she'll be careful.
"I'll show her." He heard the guy Momoko was just talking to mutter. "I'll use my bugs and worms to disgust her so much that she'll never be able to walk into Biology class again."
Brick cursed at freaky laugh Randy let out. For the first time in his life he cursed his super hearing, no one should have to listen to that creepy chuckle. Not many people knew about his true abilities. He and his brother tried to hide their true powers which Randy was about to experience now.
"What did you say?" He said in a low deadly voice, glaring at Randy.
Too bad Randy was too dense to hear the threat in Brick's voice. "Just my latest plan."
"You listen to me, if you hurt one hair one Momoko's head I'll…" He didn't finish his sentence, instead he pushed Randy against the wall with his dark powers.
"H-h-ho-how did you do that? You didn't even touch me." Randy stammered, afraid for his life.
"It doesn't matter. The only thing that matter is that you never hurt Momoko directly or indirectly at any time in the future. Do you understand me?"
Randy nodded too scared to talk.

Blossom ran back as fast as she could. But she stopped when the image of Brick waiting for her crept into her mind and blushed. She didn't know why he was constant presence in her mind and the mere thought of him made her thought which irritated her to no bound.
She decided that she would like Randy. He was into Biology and watched the shows she liked but no matter how much she tried to convince herself she knew she didn't feel anything for Randy.
She was shocked when she saw Randy sitting against the wall shaking from fear or the cold she didn't know.
"Are you okay Randy?" She rushed to his side.
"Get away from me you freak." He pushed her aside. "I don't want to see you again. Just stay away from me you freak!"
No one had ever called her that before in her life. She felt herself tear up. Was there really something wrong with her?
She didn't even know she was walking.
Brick found her sitting on a park swing looking me miserable than he ever saw her.
Momoko looked up when she felt a cloth on her cheek. He was there, the man who haunted her thoughts.
It was Brick.
There was a bandage on his cheek and his red hair was longer than the usual style but it gave him a rugged look. He wore a red biker jacket and a backwards baseball cap. She fell into his deep brown eyes and didn't come out until he spoke.
"Weak woman cry so don't."
She rubbed her eyes and sniffed. She didn't know if he called her strong or weak. As if he could read her thoughts he replied. "You're strong."
She saw him look around and was confused when his face light up and ran off. He came back with two chocolate ice cream cones which lifted her spirits. He handed her one and sat on the swing next to her.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm not going to tell you." She said but all she wanted was to crawl into his arms and cry.
"Well you need to talk about it so you'll get over whatever's making you upset and since there's no one else around you have to just settle on me."
Momoko tried to fight back the tears but they came out in a rush. "I thought I could forget about him if I convinced myself that I loved someone else, someone totally different form him but I can't forget about him. I feel like an idiot trying to convince myself that I love that idiot. But he can't love me, we have nothing in similar."
"Well whoever he is, he's one lucky man." Momoko looked up at him surprised and could only stare at him when he leaned down to lick of chocolate ice cream from the corner of her lips. "Anyway you don't have to love a guy just because he likes the same things you do, if that was the case everyone would be walking around kissing their mirrors."
He walked away, leaving her staring after him but stopped after a few steps and looked back at her. "My favourite ice cream flavour is chocolate."
Momoko blushed at that and thought that was the nicest words he could give her for her favourite ice cream flavour was also chocolate. It looks like they had something in common.
"Wait, Brick!" She shot to her feet and ran after him. She linked her arm around his and smiled up at him. "I know this great Café that serves the best ice cream around. Do you want to come with me."
He smiled down at her. "Why not?"
My next one is going to be for Buttercup and Butch.
