What They Really Think
Chapter 1
When I Look At You
BubblesXBoomer
It was so hard. So hard to look at him, to see him flinch when I hurt him. It was hard to hear Buttercup crow in victory, to hear Blossom laugh at our bruised and broken counterparts. And when I looked at him, I knew he was more hurt by me than the wounds. Hurt that I would hurt. And it hurt me to hurt him. It was a vicious cycle, full of hurt. And I wanted it to stop. I pull out a piece of paper.
-To Boomer, I write. Words echo in my head, but I can't figure out which to use. And the hurt over shadows everything.
Everybody needs inspiration
Everbody needs a song
A beautiful melody
When the night's so long
The dark outside my window lingers as I go through paper after paper, pen after pen. The words are there, but are elusive, escaping my hand. I can't. I can't! I CAN'T! Then, as I give up all hope, they come. The words come.
When I look at you
I see forgiveness
I see the truth
You love me for who I am
Like the stars hold the moon
Right there where they belong
And I know I'm not alone, yeah
You appear just like a dream to me
Just like kaleidoscope colors
That cover me
All I need
Every breath that I breathe
Don't you know you're beautiful?
-From Bubbles
I float outside, the weak light of dawn just appearing over the skyline. I float down to his house, and slip the letter in his window. He stirs in his sleep. A tear slides down my cheek, and I run away. It hurt. It hurt so much. But I knew that the letter would help. Maybe a lot, maybe a little, but it would help.
When my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I, I look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore
And I can't find my way home anymore,
That's when I, I, I look at you...
No follow-ups! These are all oneshots, so yeah. Song is When I Look At You, by Miley Cyrus.
