Sky's P.O.V
Of course, it's Stella and Brandon... together. I better get over it, because it'll never change, but he's never away from her. Most of the time, I just wish Stella could go hang out with Musa, or anyone, but just leave Brandon to be free once in a while! I was pretty tight with Stella, before she literally ditched Bloom for Musa. Bloom is my best friend, but I wish we had more than just friendship. Yes I know, mushy-gooshy crap, but I do. She's just so awesome... and amazing.
"Hey, Sky!" Flora's voice stopped my daydreaming, "we're gonna be late if you don't hurry!"
Flora's P.O.V
I wonder what's up with Sky. He seems a little down, maybe Bloom can talk to him, he seems to tell her every little detail about anything, or everything.
"Hey, Bloom!" I whispered, "You should go talk to Sky, he's looking kind of down."
"Yeah, it's probably of the spoiled princess over there!" she tilted her head over to Stella.
"Bloom! Please, don't be rude! We're best friends, don't start with that stuff, I beg of you!"
"I can't help her crap, Flora!" I sniffed a bit. What's wrong with Bloom? I kept all my focus on my feet, concentrated on the floor, trying to block my tears from spilling out. I'm very sensitive... very, most people know that and be careful with my feelings, but I can't blame Bloom, she's just upset.
"Oh Flora, I didn't mean it! I'm just up-"
"set," I completed her sentence, "don't worry about it, sweetie!" I grinned, not showing my teeth, but my smile was big enough to cover the school.
"Thanks... I just get all worked up over nothing. I'm still... kind of in denial since she pretty much dumped me for Musa."
"Don't think like that, you and Aisha are pretty close, and getting closer every time you two talk. Even you and Tecna are bonding often! Think positive, dear, trust me!"
"I guess you're right, but I'm still angry about those two!"
"Well, I can't heal that, only you, Muse, and Stel can, but you can help heal someone!" I told her filled with joy, "Sky!" I whispered in her ear.
"I will, thanks for everything, Flo!" she called back heading towards her "prince charming." I knew he had strong feelings for her, I also know she feels the same. I am pretty heartfelt, so I can really notice these things. I just wish I could sense how my best friend in the entire world feels...
Bloom's P.O.V
I sped walked up to Sky, right behind him so he wouldn't notice, maybe I could eavesdrop a little, just a tiny bit!
"Nabu, shut up!" Sky shouted out, but only for him and Nabu to really hear.
"Look man, I'm just trying to help, but if you don't want it-"
"No, sorry bro, but I'm just fried."
"What's wrong Sky?"
"Stella and Brandon I mean look at them!" both of their heads turned toward Stella and Brandon. They were laughing and nudging each other. I was getting butterflies in my stomach... was Sky jealous? Does he like Stella? Is he jealous because they're so close? Now I really should get rid of that brat! And I think I know how...
"Bloom?" Sky snapped me back to reality
"Sorry, hey Sky! What's wrong?"
"Nothing, Bloom."
"You're not going to tell me? Your best friend?"
"Fine, but don't judge. I'd wish Brandon would stop hanging out with Stella so much!"
"W-why?"
"Um, because I want my best friend back."
"Yeah. Me too!" I stomped away in anger, leaving Sky in confusion. I can't believe him... I just can't. Tears threatened to drop, but I shook my head and blinked multiple times to force them back into my eyes. How dare she? But, why am I feeling like this. It's just Sky... just my best friend, or is he more?
I stopped at my top locker and rested my head on the cold metal. My head felt rested as I ran my fingers through my long, red hair. I slung my book bag off my shoulder and dropped it on the ground to put my combination in: 18, 32, 7. Took things out, put things in, but I spotted something hanging in my locker. It was a photo of me and the girls, but me and Stella were right by each other's side, like she said she would always be, but lied. She'd never be there for me, only I was there for her when she needed to choose a new outfit or advice for her hair or which guy she should go out with! What did she do for me? Let me carry her shopping bags, tell her how "beautiful" she is in dresses, and watch her get pampered! She's so spoiled rotten!
I closed my locker with a loud, echoing shut. The sound passes through the hallway, while everyone glared. Waving, blushing, and smiling, I turned away. That couldn't of been anymore embarrassing! My hatred for princess started to really grow as I thought deeper and deeper. When I arrived at my first class I didn't even listen, just watched the stupid blonde. Gosh, she's so freaking irritating!
Stella's P.O.V
In first period, Musa sat right behind me, while Brandon was on my right side, and Flora on my left. Bloom really looked distant from us, giving me the "death-glare" as I call it. Her eyes looked black, but why? Oh well, her problem not mine!
"Hey Stel, we need to go dress shopping tonight!" Musa reminded me
"Oh yeah, that's right! I forgot about the dance this Friday night!" it was a "back to school" dance, just to welcome us back.
"How could you forget? You've been talking non-stop about your hair!" giggled Flora
"I don't know, but Brandon, you can't come with this time!" I faced to turn him.
Shocked, he turned to me and stopped talking to Sky, "Wait what? I always go with you, Stella! Why change your mind? It's like our thing!"
"I know, but this time it'll be a surprise!" I winked
"Alright, but this will be the one and only time!" Brandon clarified
"Okay, but I don't know. I can't promise you anything!"
"And why not?"
"Because, what if I want it to be a surprise again?"
"Well I'd have to make you deal with it!" he slightly grinned
Rolling my eyes, I replied back, "No promises!" playfully, he punched my shoulder, so I smacked the back of his head lightly.
Delighted, I sat up straight and smiled back at him like a good-girl.
"Gosh, you irritate me!" Brandon chuckled
"Tell me about it..." Bloom rudely whispered, but I heard it as clear as day.
"Excuse me?" I gave her my death-stare
"You heard me, loud and clear!" she spat back
"What is your problem?" Musa stood up pointing at her with a "Musa tude."
"Oh shut up, freak. Gonna go cry to your mommy? Actually wait, you don't have a mom!" Bloom shouted above all the other students which silenced them. Musa's hand lowered and clutched her fists, fighting the tears.
Musa's P.O.V
How dare she just say that. They all know my mother passed away when I was young, and she knows not to bring it up!
"Okay Bloom, what the crap?" Riven called out, "That was freaking unexpected!" Bloom just rolled her eyes at Riven, she's about to make me swing...
"Sorry Riven, where exactly is your mom?" she replied with her smart aleck attitude. That's it! She knows Riven's mom left them when he was young, just like Stella! My fist got tighter and I rose it up into the air, then hit her straight across her "precious" face.
At first she was speechless, she didn't suspect me to actually go that far, but guess what dear? I did.
Stella gasped and put her hand over her mouth, but I could hear her silent laughs she tried to hold in, but to bad Stella sucks and busted out with laughter! Ha, Stella's the best! I could tell Bloom was getting frustrated with this, but she got even angrier when Riven joined in with Stella, but he thought it was a comedy show and couldn't stop his laughter. I could see Bloom's face change in color from tan to bright red, steam was about to come out of her ears! Oh this was great, but it got better when Sky stood up.
"Musa you asked for it!" Sky's fist was right in front of my nose, until Stella grabbed it and tried to twist it.
"Crap, why do you have to be so freaking strong?" she trudged
"I've about had it with you Stella Summers!" he exclaimed and swung his fist right under her chin, but Brandon stopped it right on cue with his right hand.
"Sky, try me." calmly Brandon told him. Sky's hand dropped almost exactly after Brandon told him too.
Aisha's P.O.V
Quietly, Flora, Tecna, and I just watched the drama. I can't believe Musa actually punched Bloom and Sky almost hit Stella! Honestly, I was about to hurt all of them. This was stupid! Why was Bloom being a snitch, anyways? And what the crap is Sky's issue? He has no reason to even touch Stella, despite the fact he almost injured her! But hey, let's give Musa some props for hitting the prep!
Flora's P.O.V
I think I'm going to hyperventilate! I can't believe any of them! Oh no, don't cry Flora... just don't cry. The feeling of a warm hand on my shoulder, comforted me. It was Helia. I looked up at him standing right by my side, his warm, friendly smile gave me goosebumps.
"Everything will be alright, Flora," he mumbled in my ear. I just nodded and hugged him tightly. He had an effect on me, if I was in Helia's arms, nothing bad would happen. Everything is safe.
Stella's P.O.V
Silence struck out between all of us. Wow, what just happened? Oh, I know! Bloom!
"Aw, Bloom you're so adorable! But you won't be for long!"
I started that sentence out innocent and adorable, but that didn't last long when I headed over toward her, but Brandon's hand grabbed my wrist.
"Don't, Stel." he cooed
"Fine. I guess it'll be Sky!" I swung, but he ducked, grabbed my arm, and twisted it back.
"Ow, Sky, let me go, freak!" I decided how he was going to let me go. I lifted my foot and kicked him in the shin, but that really didn't help. He wrenched my left hand out of Brandon's grip and twisted that too.
"Ow, Sky!" I screamed, but he just enjoyed this. Flora dug her head in Helia's chest and Brandon stepped forward, and out of no where, BAM! Brandon just slapped Sky, grabbed me, ran into the hallway, and outside the building! Behind us, there was Musa and Riven following.
"Brandon! You're a freaking maniac!" I exclaimed and hugged him tightly.
"You do know we're gonna get expelled for this?" Riven stated
Brandon giggled, "Yep, so that means let's go!"
