Chapter four: Seeing them again

Bloom and Miriam both went back to Sparks, as soon as they got back to the royal castle Bloom went to go search for her father Oritel.

Bloom found her father in the library. She snuck up behind him and hugged him from his waist.

"Excuse me, you're not aloud to touch the King or Queen. Let go of me before I call the guards." Orital hissed

Bloom laughed. "What if it's your favorite daughter in the whole kingdom, who's the princess?" Bloom asked.

Oritel turned his head to see his beautiful daughter. "I thought I'd never see you again, sweetheart." Oritel said giving Bloom a bear hug. "I'm sorry, I though you were freak attacking me."

"I know daddy, I've missed you too." Bloom said.

"How do you feel?" Oritel asked in concern.

Bloom sighed. "Okay I guess. I still miss him, though." Bloom said.

"Don't worry sweetheart, everything will be fine." Oritel reassured Bloom by squeezing her hand.

"Thanks, dad." Bloom said giving her dad a kiss on the cheek.

"I really missed home. It still seems the same." Bloom said walking

Oritel nodded his head. "It hasn't changed not one bit since you left." he said.

"Bloom, honey. They're here." Miram said motioning Bloom to go with her.

"I'll see you later dad. I love you." Bloom said walking with her mother. They walked in silence to the dining hall.

"Are you ready?" Miriam asked Bloom.

Bloom nodded her head. "Yeah, I'm ready." Bloom said. She opened the door to reveal: Stella, Flora, Layla, Tecna, Musa, Helia, Brandon, Nabu, Timmy and Riven.

"Oh darling! It's been so long. I missed you so much. Well, we all did." Stella said hugging Bloom.

"I missed you too. I missed all of you. I just needed to be alone for a bit." Bloom replied. "Come on, group hug."

They all got up and hugged Bloom.

"God, it must had been so hard for you, Bloom," Musa said.

Bloom nodded her head. "Yeah, it was. And one thing I found, was that Sky was planning to propose. They found a ring." Bloom said.

"Oh my gosh, sweetie." Flora said giving Bloom a hug. "I'm so sorry. How did you find out?"

Bloom sighed. "It was when I went to the police station earlier." Bloom started off.

"I went to go see the detective; Alex. I asked him if I could find out what happened. And he said that the case was closed, so I couldn't help him. But then he got out a box. He told me that they found it when they found Sky's body. It was a ring."

"Wow." Timmy, Riven, Nabu, Brandon and Helia said in a unison.

"Wow. This must be so hard for you, Bloom," Layla said.

Bloom was fighting back the tears before she spoke. "Yeah, it is. I still can't get over that he's gone though. It feels just like yesterday we were together. And then next thing you know you wake up not having the man you love in your arms." Bloom said.

"Don't worry Bloom. I know Sky would want you to be happy again. Maybe you can find a new guy." Tecna suggested.

"Tecna, does it look like Bloom wants to find another guy right now." Stella hissed at Tecna.

"Tecna, Stella's right. I'm not ready for a relationship right now. I'm not even close to ready until I find out who killed Sky." Bloom said crossing her arms on her chest.

The door opened. Bloom turned around to see Miram. "Bloom honey, I think it's a good time to go home." she said.

Bloom nodded. "I'll talk to you guys soon. I still need some time. Okay?" Bloom asked.

The girls all nodded. "Come here." Bloom said as she started to cry.

"I love you guys so muck. You know that?" Bloom asked.

"We know. We love you too Bloom." Layla said answering for the others. After the girls ended their hug Bloom walked to the guys.

"Come on, you guys deserve a hug too." Bloom said. The guys came up to Bloom and gave her a group hug.

"Uh, guys, you're squishing me." Bloom said.

The guys let go of Bloom and apologized for crushing her.

"Well, I'll see you guys when I'm ready to talk again." Bloom said. "bye"

"Bye." They all said.

Bloom walked out of the dining hall as she followed her mother.

"Mom, when will the pain go away?" Bloom asked.

"Sweetheart, I have no idea when the pain will go away. I know it will take a while. But I do know that there's always a second chance at love." Miriam replied.

"I don't think I'll have a second chance at love, mom." Bloom said.

Miriam sighed. "Don't deny it. I know you'll find you're second chance." Blooms mother said.

"How do you know forsure, mom?" Bloom asked.

"I just know." Miriam said.

Bloom sighed as they walked back to the library to see her father before Bloom leaves.

"Hi dad." Bloom said as she walked up to him.

"Hi pumpkin. How was it?" Oritel asked.

Bloom stiffened. "It was alright." Bloom replied.

"Well, I better get home. I'll be back soon. Okay?" Bloom said.

"Okay Bloom. We love you." Miriam said.

"I love you too." Bloom said as she left.
