4. Sugar, Spice, & High School Life
Bubbles POV
"Bubbles, you're the lightest, so you'll go on top of the pyramid." My friend Kris said as she laced her fingers together to lift me up.
"Can't we practice this during practice tomorrow?" I asked.
"No! We have the pep rally in two weeks, we need to figure this pyramid order out." Kris said.
"Fine." I sighed as I put my bag down in the grass and walked over to the other fourteen cheerleaders.
The five on the bottom lined up and four other were lifted between them, next three more, then two, then me. I wobbled a little and tried to regain my balance. We dismounted the pyramid and Kris demanded we try to do it faster.
Each girl lined up again and the others began forming the pyramid again, because we had rushed through this one, the girls who supported me lost their grip and I started to fall backwards.
I screamed when they let me go and I got scared, knowing I was going to break my arm, or leg, or both.
"Whoa!" I heard a voice gasp.
I opened my eyes to realize someone had caught me. Looking up, I met dark blue eyes.
I was still shocked from the fall, adding that to the shock I was experiencing now.
"How 'bout a 'Thank you, Boomer', I mean I did just save your life." He smirked.
"Yeah, sorry. Um, thanks." I tried to clear my head.
"Ah, don't mention it." He said.
"Boomer?" I asked.
"Yeah?" He looked back down at me.
"You can put me down now." I said.
His eyes widesnd in realization. "Oh, right."
He gently put me down.
"Thanks." I said again before going to grab my bag.
"Hang on a second." I heard him say as he gripped the back of my hoodie and pull me back.
"Boomer, what are you doing?" I asked.
"Aw, you're not happy to see me?" He smirked.
"What?" I asked.
"You're not answering my question." He stated.
"Well you're not answering mine." I shot back.
"Bubbles!" Buttercup yelled.
I looked in her direction and saw her and Blossom rushing towards me.
"Here we go." I sighed.
"What the hell are you doing? Let her go!" BC yelled.
"BC, it's fine." I started to tell her.
"C'mon, Bubs. We should get to homeroom." Blossom tried to pull me away from Boomer.
"No, Blossom. I'm going to walk with Boomer." I said.
"What?" Buttercup asked.
"You heard me, so just leave him alone." I told her.
They each gave me a look but left anyway.
"You do care about me." Boomer said in mock happiness.
"You saved me, now I saved you from being beaten to a pulp by my sister. We're even now." I walked away.
