Summary - Brick had a lot of fun writing to her the first time, even if he got freaked out for a minute.
I really get annoyed with myself. This is like the third AU I did for this chapter. I didn't like how I was starting to write the other ones so I delete them and eventually got to this masterpiece. I'm pretty proud of this one actually. It was really fun to do.
I hope you guys enjoy!

Hey, you can read this right?
That was the first message his soulmate wrote to him. And it appeared right on Brick's arm one day when he was six.
Of course, he wasn't educated on soulmates at the time and didn't know that whatever you wrote or drew on your body, appeared on theirs too. So he got pretty freaked out and went to his mom, who explained everything to him.
Eventually, he got back to them.
yes i can
Cool. What took you so long to answer?
nothin
Okay.
Brick had talked to them for awhile after that. He learned a lot about his soulmate. She was a girl that was his age, and she liked to read a lot. She was also really smart, which could be seen in her writing. She was an... okay artist.
(Alright, she was pretty terrible, but Brick wasn't going to tell her that.)
The only thing that he couldn't get from her was her name. Because the universe totally sucked, so every time they tried, it would come up blurry and unreadable.
They could tell each other pretty much anything else.
Brick had a lot of fun writing to her the first time, even if he got freaked out for a minute.
you do realize that if we shortened our words we could write more without having to wash it all of so often right?
Yeah, but that's the same as texting. Writing to your soulmate should be special. Plus, I can't stand when people do that. It annoys me.
yeah yeah. so how did your test go?
I think I did pretty well. How about you? Ace your presentation?
just like always.
As expected. What are you doing now?
nothing. talking to you takes up all my attention. not that i would have it another way.
...
Yeah, same here. Anyways, I gotta go. My partner for a project just showed up. Write to you later.
okay. write to you later.
'That was weird. She doesn't usually pause like that. Weird. Wait...'
'not that i would have it another way.'
Brick laid his arm on his forehead, blushing. 'Idiot. No wonder she took awhile to write back.'
Gosh, he really wanted to meet her.
It had been eight years since they first wrote to each other. Four years since they began to talk every single day. And one year since he realized that he maybe, sorta, liked her.
I mean, it would be hard not to like a girl like her. Brick's soulmate was amazing.
She was really smart, for one thing. She was part of the reason he tried so hard in school. It would be kinda hard to keep up if he wasn't at least close to her in intelligence. She was also really funny and sarcastic a lot too. He didn't know how she was around others, but around him she seemed confident and outgoing. She was the first one to write to him that day after all.
He really, really wanted to meet her.
hey, can i ask you something?
Sure. Shoot.
have you ever thought about meeting up?
There was another pause like the last time they talked. Brick got ready to brush it off, but she replied before he could.
Yeah, I have.
Brick's hear skipped a beat. It started pounding louder in his chest.
i
...
really want to meet you.
...
I think
...
She scribbled the words out.
Okay. Let's do it.
But are we even near each other?
Brick frowned. Distance was a deciding factor if he wanted to meet her.
i live in Townsville, USA.
wait, was that readable?
...
Yeah, it was.
I live in Townsville too.
Brick practically jumped for joy. His heart raced faster.
Although, he pauses were concerning. Did she not want to meet after all?
hey, you don't have to if you don't want to, you know.
i can wait for you.
No, I'm fine! After what you just said, I do think I want to meet you. I don't have any doubts.
How about we meet in the city? I know a good coffee shop.
yeah, that would be great.
A week later, Brick now sat inside the very coffee shop that she told him about, waiting for her. He bopped his heel on the ground as he sat in a booth across the entrance.
She had told him that she had pink eyes, not hard to miss. She also had long copper hair. He told her that he had red eyes and copper colored hair too.
Both of them, weren't that hard to miss.
The bell to the entrance rang again, making Brick's heart jump before he realized it wasn't her. He sighed.
Why did he come a half hour early? To make his heart burst before she got here? From the way things were going, that could very well be the case.
Idiot.
He glanced down at his phone for the time.
2:47. He still had thirteen minutes to go.
He leaned back into the seat, staring out into the window. Suddenly, something caught his eye.
It was her.
Oh no. Was he prepared for this? Nope.
She walked into the shop, looking around. Her eyes met his.
She smiled at him, making him blush before he returned with one of his own. She walked over to him.
"Hi."
"Hey. Nice to finally meet you in person. I'm Brick. Brick Johnson."
"My name is Blossom Taylor. It's a pleasure to meet you too, Brick."
i cannot believe that we go to the same high school. are you kidding me?
I mean, it is our own fault. We never told each other. And I thought that you seemed familiar.
wait.
you are the student council president.
oh my god
This is just now sinking in?
i am dating the student council president.
i didn't think i'd ever see the day.
...
We're dating?
Oh crap.
Well, I mean
we don't have to be
i'm just
Okay
?
I need clarrification here, Bloss.
Once they met each other, they could write their names without it blurring every time.
Well, I haven't been asked out yet.
Oh. Oh.
Brick gets it now.
you wanna meet at the park?
i have a question to ask.
I'll be there in an hour.
Brick got to the park and there was Blossom, waiting for him. He checked his phone for the time. She was ten minutes early. He smiled.
Just like last time.
"Hey, Bloss!" She glanced up to him and smiled.
"Hi! You said you had a question?" She turned her head to the side.
Brick blushed and thought that it wasn't fair that she was so cute.
"Uh, yeah." He held out a single red rose for her to take. He eyes widened, and she grabbed it looking up at him. He smiled. "I was wondering if you wanted to go out with me again? And, um, be my girlfriend?" He blushed. Blossom grinned.
"Yeah! Definitely. I would love to!" She wrapped her arms around Brick, pulling him into a hug. He grinned and squeezed her tight in his arms.
so, where would you like to go on our first date? or second, if you count our first meeting as a date.
Surprise me. Pretty much anything's fine with me.
i forgot to ask, how'd you like the rose?
It was really romantic! Where did you even get one so pretty?
my mom and I grow them. ever since you told me that you like them, actually.
...
That's cute.
And really sweet. I'm surprised that you remembered that.
hey, i was going to remember anything that my soulmate told me.
Aww.
Anyways, it's getting late. I'll write to you tomorrow Brick.
Write to you tomorrow Bloss.

REVIEW RESPONSE~
Error291 - Aww, I'm glad that you think so! I always get a bubbly feeling whenever I write fluff, so I'm glad that you feel that way reading!
And yeah, I get each prompt from tumblr. I like all of them, so I decided to write them one day after reading through a whole bunch.
StraniqueGirl0684 - Yeah, I thought that it was a good one for both of them. I liked to think how each of them would react to seeing their world in their counterpart's eye color and hating it until they see the color in each others eyes. I thought it was a cute idea.
Yeah, I like doing parallel things a lot. I think a do it a lot in stories a write, but I don't know. And for most of these, I'm going to have them as friends and not siblings. I like mixing things up with the characters. Especially Boomer and Butch with Blossom. I really need to write more with them in it. I just think that those three would be so fun and hilarious with each other.
I'm glad you liked that part. I was worried that it wasn't going to be very good.
I know that I would fall in love with a person who did that for me too. ;3
And yeah, Robin was stuck seeing in gray. Luckily, she met Mike soon after Blossick met, so she didn't have to see in gray for much longer.
(And it's cool. I read other responses on stories too sometimes. XD)
MarshmallowFluff - Thank you so much! I'm glad you think so!
Livku - Your review really made me smile a lot. I'm so glad that you think so! I love that my writing brightens up your day, I know I've done something right. :3 Thank you so much!
