A story of Blossom's first true love, as told to her diary
Warning: Very sappy. This is a romance fic. If it's not your type of fic I don't suggest you read it. Flames welcome, as well as constructive critisism and praise. I took a lot of time on this, and I hope you like it. It has been updated, re-titled, re-uploaded, and all that. Note: This fic was formerly titled "Dear Diary" but later changed to Eternal Love.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Powerpuff Girls, they are owned by Cartoon Network and some other people like Hanna Barbera or whatever. And I don't own rollerblades. But I'm just writing this for fun and using the characters ok? Read on.
Blossom's Diary
October 9
Dear Diary...
Today, I met the guy of my dreams. His name is Robert and he is the sweetest boy that has ever been on the face of this earth. I met him in my history class of Townsville Junior High. He was the "new kid". You know "love at first sight"? I think that's what happened as soon as I laid eyes on him. He's so cute, and nice too. He has spiked red hair, and deep blue eyes that just glow...they say the eyes are the window to the soul! Well, he must always have a sunny, bright day inside of him, full of happiness and warmth. I hope that we can become more than just friends...

Dear Diary...
Today, Robert picked me to be his partner in the history project about the United States history. The Professor said I could go over to his house and study today, and work a little on our project. I'm going there in a few minutes, and I hope everything will run smoothly. I hope I can impress him with intelligence and wit-but all I want is to be myself, and not like some girls on T.V. who get all weird and stuff when they see their crush. Wish me luck, Dear Diary. I'm gonna go outside and get my scooter to go over to Robert's house...
~The same day, but later~
Dear Diary...
Things went extremely well! I'm so excited...here's the scoop. When I went over to Robert's house, Professor dropped me off of course, so he met Robert's parents, and so did I. Then we had some refreshments, and then we quizzed each other for the history test on Thursday, which is tomorrow. He's really smart, and I can tell he had studied-every question I gave him from the study guides, he got right! He said I was smart too! I was smart! We got a load done on our project...he's a great worker and extremely organized. I love working with him...

Dear Diary...
I cannot believe it! Pinch me...Robert asked me out today, and the Professor said I could go!!!! It went exactly like this:
"Uh, Blossom?"
"Yes, Robert? Something about our project?"
"Um...well no...actually...I was just wondering..."
"Yeah?" I was getting anxious...I had hoped he would ask...
"Well..." he hesitated, then blurted, "Will you go out with me?"
I grinned. "I'd love to Robert! I'll have to check but I'll call you later 'k?"
"Great. Maybe we could go out for a pizza or somethin'."
Oh Diary, it was so wonderful...I called him a while ago just to hear the sound of his voice. We're going out on Sunday to Pizza Town! My very first date! I'm so ecstatic I'm squealing. I'll let you know how it goes...

Dear Diary...
Things were fabulous at Pizza Town! Robert told me he *loved* me! LOVE...as in L-O-V-E!!! I told him I loved him too...we gazed into each other's eyes, and had our first kiss!! It was just closed-mouth, just a quick smooch, not like those couples on T.V. who have their lips locked for like, 10 minutes! But I'm not complaining...I don't want to go too fast, I mean...we're only in the 8th grade!
October 30
Dear Diary...
Today Robert asked me out for the second time. Tomorrow, as you know, is Halloween, and he wanted us to do something special together, so we're going trick or treating together tomorrow (Kinda childish, I know. But what do you expect...we're only in 8th grade, and it'll be fun! We're going as two halves of a sandwich :)), and then when we're done we're coming back to my house so he can meet the Professor and my sisters.

Dear Diary...
Date #2 is here! Bubbles just helped me put on my costume. She's going trick or treating with Buttercup. Oh my gosh, there's the door, it must be Robert...well gotta go!
~Later~
It was TONS of fun trick or treating with Robert! Everyone loved our costume, and we got a bunch of candy. Robert gave me a stuffed pumpkin as a gift...wasn't that thoughtful! Later at dinner, Professor loved Robert. Professor said he was a "very mature, intelligent young man". Bubbles and Buttercup liked him too-Bubbles showed him her paintings from art class, and he and Buttercup had an arm-wrestling competition. I'm glad my sisters and the Professor enjoyed his company...and I think he enjoyed theirs too! I can't wait for school...especially history class!

Dear Diary...
Today Bubbles posed a big question on me. I know I've been neglecting my duties as a Powerpuff Girl, but she asked if I was still on the team and if I was still going to help save Townsville. I've thought it over for awhile, and I've decided to devote most of my time to Robert instead of "saving the day". I talked over it with Professor and he said it was my decision...but I feel I truly love Robert, and he truly loves me. Besides, I've been saving the day for almost 10 years! I deserve a break...and besides, Bubbles and Buttercup are still there to do it!

Dear Diary...
Today was my birthday. Robert was such a sweetheart, he bought me candy and a rose, as well as a self-made card that had a drawing of me on the cover, and read...
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I never dreamed I'd have a girlfriend
As sweet and kind as you!
Love, Robert
PS: How would you like to go to the ice rink with me...right now! :)
It was super! I gave him a kiss and told him that meant *yes*! And the ice rink was awesome, of course. How couldn't it be...I was there, alone with my boyfriend...

Dear Diary...
Robert has been out for a week now with the flu. I've been to visit him a few times, just to keep him company. He's okay now though, he's getting better and the doc says he can come back to school on Monday!

Dear Diary...
Hey again! I know I haven't written you almost 2 weeks, but I don't feel like sitting here and writing about *every single* date we go on. He's taken me to about 5 more since the last time I wrote in you, and they were all fabulous, of course! Fireworks and sparks are flyin' baby!!!! *Today* is our one month anniversary since the first date. Robert came over to my house today and we played video games and just chilled. He brought me roses and some chocolate, and I gave him the new rap cd he's been wanting. It was great. We watched a lot of great flicks too...especially romantic ones! :) Tonight we're going out to Pizza Town again, like we did the first time! I'm sure it'll be really fun. Well, I gotta go change for the date! See ya!
November 26
Dear Diary...
Happy Thanksgiving! Yup, today was the big Turkey Day! We invited Robert over for some lunch, and he thanked Professor for the great feast. He hung out with me for the rest of the day at the park, where we just rollerbladed and talked all the while. I had a blast!
December 1
Dear Diary...
It's so horrible!!!!!!! Robert has been in a terrible car accident that caused a serious concussion, along with many fractures and broken bones, one that might have severed his spine. The police don't know exactly how it happened, but the people in the other car have been pronounced dead. Robert's mom came out with a broken arm, and his dad with 5 cracked ribs and a fractured leg. Even now I am sitting in the waiting room of Townsville General Hospital, waiting for any news. Robert hasn't woken up since the accident, and he is in intensive care. I've cried my eyes out for 2 hours. I hope and pray that he will be okay...
December 3
Dear Diary...
My whole world has just been shattered to a million pieces. Robert is dead. Those 4 letters will cause pain in my heart forever. Dead. My boyfriend, my companion, the one the I have loved for almost 2 months, ever since he walked into my life...gone forever. I don't think I'll ever recover, he has meant so much to me. We'll never be able to rollerblade in the park together, or go to the ice rink, or go to Pizza Town for our 2 month anniversary...and we'll never be able to have Christmas together, or eat another Thanksgiving dinner. I don't think I will ever love a boy in the way I loved him. *He* was my soulmate...and he's gone!!!! FOREVER!!!! I don't think I'll ever be happy again.

Dear Diary...
Robert's funeral was today. I put some marigolds in his coffin and listened to the touching eulogy with tears streaming down my face. My boyfriend, gone forever...the idea hasn't begun to sink in yet. I don't think it ever fully will. I will never forget his wonderful smile, his warm laugh, and his kisses and hugs, the gifts he gave me, and that handmade card. And I watched tearfully, painfully as his coffin was lowered into the ground, and he was buried. His gravestone:
Robert A. Terry
1987-2001
Love Forever
