Of Cuteness and Cupcakes
Note: I do not own Power Rangers and all that jazz. This is just a little story, and I mean little, that I've been waiting to write since episode one.
Rating: K
Genre: FLUFF
As Emily, Mike, Jayden, Mia and Kevin all poured out the doors of the bakery, sugary goods locked in their hands; their laughter drew attention to them. They were all laughing, even Jayden, Emily supposed maybe the sugar brought out the kid in him a little bit and it wasn't a bad thing. She held her cupcake tight, a little happy bunny painted in the frosting smiled up at her. And she couldn't wait to eat it. After the day they had and the fact she didn't get to play bride long enough for her tastes, but the fact they got to splurge her merger allowance on cupcakes.
As they headed for a table, a tall man bumped into her and she lost her grip. She let out a cry as her cupcake fell to the ground in slow motion.
"Nooooooooooooo," she cried, her lip quivered, she looked up at the others and Mike had his cupcake halfway shoved into his mouth and as soon as he heard her cry, he stopped. He hadn't even moved the cupcake, it was just there, wedged in his mouth. "Mike, eat your cupcake!" she almost sobbed. He promptly swallowed it, and she mourned for her own.
She felt a small tap on her shoulder and she turned around to see the tall boy that had been leaving the store when she had gone in. He was blushing slightly but held out a cupcake to her from his stash.
"I'm sorry about your cupcake, I hope this helps," he said and she immediately squeed and threw her arms around the stranger's neck, "Can't breathe!" he wheezed as he purpled.
"Oh! Sorry! Just…thank you! That was so kind of you!" she said, he smiled at her and began to fade back to pale.
"Like, I know how hard it is to drop a cupcake. I couldn't let that ruin your fun," he said, "And besides, its one less for Uncle Bulk," he motioned to the bald man on the bench who was, instead of stuffing his face, talking on the phone. "When did he get a phone?"
"I don't even know your name yet! I'm Emily!" she said, holding her new cupcake tight.
"You can call me Spike, it's nice to meet you Emily," he said, and looked over to his Uncle who was waving him over as he stood. "Looks like I have to go. Enjoy the cupcake, I hope to see you around," he told her, she beamed at him.
"I will! Thank you Spike! And I hope so too!" she said and watched him hurry back to his Uncle.
She looked to the others who were looking at her with mischievous looks. She looked at them confused.
"What?" she asked as she bit into the delicious cupcake. "I got a cupcake AND made a new friend!" she beamed as she looked back to see him walk off with the man.
-END-
This has been in my head for a while but I can finally write this since we got minor interaction at least. Its going to be spawning a whole bunch of other short stories featuring Emily and Spike as BFFs. So expect that soon!
