Bloom didn't mean too. She was upset. Hurt by the fact that her friends betrayed her. The fact her former fiancé Sky walked away from her. She sat alone in her room. Since leaving Alfea, Bloom had found living on Earth was different. She couldn't use her magic. There was no actual danger. And after Selina's big reveal, Bloom was left alone.
The rain started pouring. Bloom looked over at the window. The raindrops lightly touched her window. She watched the rain make swirled patterns. Bloom hugged her knees to her chest and rested her chin on them. Her big blue eyes staring outside.
"Sky?" She suddenly said.
Bloom climbed off her bed and walked over to the window. Standing with an umbrella was Sky. She smiled to herself. Bloom hurried to her closet. She immediately pulled out a blue raincoat. Forced on boots and hurried downstairs. She opened the door and froze.
"There you are my love,"
Bloom took a step outside, feeling the raindrops touch her face. She was about to speak when she heard a familiar voice.
"Sky my prince!"
Bloom turned to look at the opposite side of the street. There she was. Her long blonde hair was covered by a hat. Her big golden eyes shining (which always happened, even when it was raining). Stella, the former Princess of Solaria and current Queen.
"I missed you darling." Bloom heard Sky speak. Bloom found herself walking towards her friends. It was as though she was invisible. She watched Sky and Stella embrace each other with an intimate kiss. Bloom's eyes widen in shock.
"I could get used to this." Stella says. Her arms wrapped around Sky's neck.
"I love you my sun." Sky speaks.
Bloom parts her lips to speak, but no sound comes out. Stella turns to look directly at her. "Bloom!" She says with a wicked smile.
"BLOOM WAKE UP!"
Bloom's eyes shot open. Standing over her was Stella, her blonde hair in a pony. She slowly sat up. She was just dreaming. She rushed her fingers through her hair with relief. "What time is it?" She asked looking over the clock. 6:00AM. "Stella!" She moaned looking back at her friend. "Are you insane?"
Stella rolled her eyes. "Honestly Bloom, today is your wedding day!"
Bloom's throat was dry. Of course. She looked at the white wedding dress which hung on her full length mirror. Today she was marrying the man of her dreams. Stella's phone started ringing. Bloom watched her friend look at the caller ID. She smiled. Only one person could bring her to smile like that.
"Brandon!" Stella greeted.
Stella walked to the other side of the room, leaving Bloom with her thoughts.
Bloom watched her friend. She couldn't believe ten years ago today Stella brought her to Magix, where her entire life changed. She looked down at her hand. A shinning blue diamond shimmered in the sunlight. Sky was perfect. She thought. Slowly, Bloom stepped out of bed. She stretched her arms in the air and walked over to the table. Stella had ordered different foods for breakfast. From fruits to bacon. Bloom reached out for a chocolate strawberry.
"Don't even think about it!" Stella said. She returned to Bloom's side, the phone still by her ear. "Bloom chocolate causes pimples."
Bloom ignored her friend. She stuffed the chocolate strawberry into her mouth and smiled.
"No Brandon darling, not you." Bloom heard Stella say.
Bloom shook her head. Even when she didn't mean too, Stella still found a way to be entertaining. Bloom walked over to the five bridesmaid dress. Stella did an amazing job in finding the perfect shades of blue for all five dresses. While four out of five were all short with halter necks, the fifth dress was slightly longer and strapless. Of course, this dress belonged to Stella, who was her Maid of Honour.
Bloom turned to look at her wedding dress. Once again, Stella did amazing job. The dress was perfect. Long and puffy, just how Bloom liked it.
"I love you Brandon." Bloom heard Stella say before she tossed her phone aside. She turned and looked at Bloom, clapping her hands together. "Right Bloom, let's get you showered and ready for today."
"Stella my wedding is not for another eight hours!" Bloom reminded her.
"I know silly." Stella replied. She walked into Bloom's closet and shuffled through her clothes. "The girls and I have decided to treat you to a morning of just girl talk in Solaria."
"Solaria?" Bloom asked.
"The gardens are blooming." Stella replied happily. "And since I'm now the Queen of Solaria, I've arranged for some tea and the perfect garden picnic."
"Sounds lovely Stella." Bloom said watching Stella pull out a blue dress.
"Here." She said.
For a moment, both girls stood in silence. Stella's eyes were slowly filling up with tears.
"You're getting married!" She exclaimed grabbing her friend for a hug. "I'm so happy for you."
Bloom smiled. She didn't want to let Stella go. She rested her chin onto Stella's shoulder and just stood.
"Today is going to be perfect."
"Look everyone, it's his majesty, the King of Eraklyon."
"Not now Brandon." Sky say waving off his best friends greeting. He walked past Brandon and into his throne room. Brandon had followed him. Sky walked up to his chair and dropped down. He let out a sigh.
"Something bothering you?" Brandon asked walking up to the stairs before the throne and resting his arm to his thigh.
"I just need to be left alone for a moment." Sky replied.
Brandon was going to speak but could see his friend was upset. He nodded his head once and walked out, closing the doors behind him.
Sky waited until the doors were closed before he looked up. Since he'd become King, everything had changed. His parents were away on Earth. His future wife, Bloom, was planning their wedding with Stella. And now this. Today of all days Sky dreamt of her again. He was going to find Bloom when she appeared. Even when it rained her eyes still managed to remain gold in colour. Stella. Brandon's fiancé. Bloom's best friend. She'd be the girl of his dreams for the past few nights. Sky couldn't understand. He knew he loved Bloom. Hell he was marrying her. But something about his dream made his feelings for Stella seem so real.
Sky stood up. He needed to see Bloom. He had to speak to her, perhaps it was just the nerves. Everyone gets cold feet before marrying. He thought.
"Brandon!" He called out.
Brandon immediately opened the doors. His brown hair falling over his left eye. "Yes."
"Get the portal ready, I need to make an urgent trip to Solaria." Sky replied.
"Solaria?" Brandon asked.
"Yes, I need to see my future wife."
Brandon nodded his head. He turned and walked away. Sky walked down the steps and towards the door.
"Today will be perfect." He said before walking off after Brandon.
Solaria was beautiful. Stella had done an amazing job of keeping her people and planet happy. As the six girls flew across the gardens, Bloom's eyes were fixated on the different colours of flowers. Blue, pink, red, yellow, orange and so on. Flora had been sitting beside her, her big green eyes shining with excitement.
"Aren't they beautiful?" Flora said practically falling out of her seat to get a better view.
Bloom couldn't help it but smile. She looked over at her friends. Musa and Tecna were sitting together, both girls playing on Tecna's new gadget. Layla was helping Stella with the snacks for the picnic. Bloom blinked a few times. She was surprised that Stella had managed to get Layla to listen to her. She could recall their first introduction. Neither girl like each other, now, well now they couldn't get enough of each other.
"We're here!" Stella said happily.
The Solarian Plane came to a halt. Stella was the first person off, followed by her friends and then finally Bloom. A few guards immediately greeted Stella.
"Welcome back Queen Stella."
Bloom watched the pleasant exchange between Stella and her people. She was still getting used to the idea of Stella being a Queen. Since the death of her parents, Stella had managed to keep herself on top of everything.
"Follow me ladies." She said calling her friends towards her.
The girls were about to enter the gardens when a white light appeared in the air. Bloom looked up. "Expecting company?"
"No." Stella replied.
"Isn't that the portal from Eraklyon?" Tecna asked pointing to the Eraklyon symbols.
"I think so." Bloom replied.
A loud sound came from the portal. It was a bike. First out was Riven, he was followed by the rest of the Specialists and then Sky.
"Brandon!" Stella greeted in surprise when she noticed her fiancé. Bloom watched Stella rush to Brandon's side and embrace him with a hug.
"What are you doing here?" Flora asked looking at Heila with a smile.
"Aren't you happy to see me?" He asked taking her hands.
"Of course I am." She replied resting her head on his chest.
"What Flora means is why you are here," Tecna spoke. "The Bride and Groom shouldn't see each other." Tecna looked at Timmy. He smiled at her.
"Sky wanted to see Bloom." Brandon answered, his hand still around Stella's waist. "So we figured it was an excuse to see you ladies as well."
"Oh Brandon!" Stella whispered.
"Is everything alright Sky?" Bloom asked looking at him.
Sky smiled. "Of course, I just wanted to speak to you."
"Oh?"
"Alone." He added.
"Of course." Bloom said quickly. She looked at her friends. Sky took her hand into his and walked her into the gardens, upsetting Stella in the process.
"This was supposed to be our surprise, not his." She moaned.
