Hello again, here's another chapter update after so long. A very short one I'm afraid though I just haven't had the time! Sorry!

Well, I hope you like it!

-Bubbles' POV-

Where did Buttercup go I wonder? She just vanished off-stage without saying a word!

I looked at Blossom and she had already spotted me in the crowd with a deep scowl on her face. Butch had taken off after Buttercup I figured, leaving Blossom and Brick alone on stage.

The audience was getting wary and some were already demanding answers. They really liked Butch and Buttercup up there.

Blossom looked a little worried now as she looked at me. I knew we had to find our sister because whatever it is that drover her off, we could feel that it had upset her.

I nodded once to Blossom who breathed a heavy sigh and nodded back and then I turned to Boomer who had a look on his face that said he was deep in thought.

-"Boomer, we need to get out of here. I have find Buttercup."

-"Sounds like a good idea."

I nodded and we started making our way through people.

It was too crowded to easily walk without shoving somebody hard out of my way and I was not comfortable with that. Boomer was ahead of me and when he noticed that I was falling behind, he took my hand and took of into the air leaving the people around us gawking at our blue tips with awe.

I caught up soon and he smiled at me.

-"Thank you but I didn't really need your help, sometimes I just forget that I can fly"

-"I knew you didn't need help, can you blame me though?"

-"Blame you for what?"

-"For wanting to hold your hand anyway."

Okay. That was probably the cheesiest yet the sweetest thing he had said to me all night. I couldn't help but look down, smile and blush. As I did so, I heard a small chuckle come from his general direction.

I looked up and he was still looking at me with an amused smile on his face which, of course, made me blush even harder.

As the consciousness crept into my mind, I noticed that he was still holding my hand and leading me into the night.

I stopped midair at that moment and I maneuvered around to hide my face while pretending to search for Buttercup.

From the corner of my eye, I could see that his facial features changed a little when I let go of his hand and turned around.

Then he did something that caught me off guard.

I had my back to him when his fingers curled around my tight fists. I didn't even notice I was so tense until he attempted to relax my clench by rubbing his thumbs gently over my palms.

He took both my hands then and looked into my eyes.

The moon was directly behind him and it silhouetted his perfect features in a way that you can only see in old classic movies.

At first, I thought that he looked a little worried but then, he closed his eyes and moved his head in a tiny circle and then opened his eyes to grin at me invitingly. He was still holding my hands and with them he brought me closer to him. He guided my arms around his neck as his own slid down to the small of my back and then, with a soft whisper in the moonlit darkness of the sky, he said: "Dance with me, will you…?"

Not a question … No but, something much more powerful. I looked in his eyes and they were demanding yet inviting at the same time. I felt a little helpless for a second but then I remembered that my face had probably gone red as a tomato so I hurried to look down.

I had only enough time to realize that there was only water below us before he noticed my attempt at avoiding his eyes and grabbed my chin to raise my face up and repeated:" Dance with me..." I was speechless.

He had a way with just looking at me and making my knees cave.

He smirked once and then added sarcastically:" I promise I won't drop you..."

I was too taken by him to notice that all my weight was supplied by only the strength in his arms that held me by the waist now.

-"But there isn't any music playing…" I breathed.

He smiled. That's all I have to say. He smiled.

Then he spoke.

-"What do you mean?" he said as he smirked and pulled me close enough for me to inhale his breath. It was warm and sweet against the cool and salty night breeze of the sea. "Don't you hear all the music around us?"

I looked at him with a confused expression but he just smiled and looked bemused.

And with a low chuckle he continued:" Listen carefully… It plays for you and me and everyone all the time. Starting from the even breathes we take to the very uneven beats of our hearts, can't you hear mine?"

Then he took one of my hands and placed it on his chest. I could feel his heart beat rhythmically as well as skip a couple of beats our eyes met.

My own heart stuttered as he pulled me even closer to bury his face in my hair and start slowly moving me. It was true… it wasn't a pick up line I knew for sure because I could hear some kind of melody there… I could hear both our hearts and breathes strumming away to the whisper of light wind around us and the crash of waves below us.

In that minute, I felt like there was no one else but me and him. He held me tightly and I was grateful for that not just because his arms felt like they fit but, also because I was sure to forget how to fly and fall into the crashing waves from the intensity of the moment.

It felt so right to be with him that I didn't care what the world thought, not even what Blossom and Buttercup thought.

Buttercup!

-"We need to find Buttercup" I said after looking up at him. But as soon as I said those words, I'd forgotten them completely. His face was too close to mine. Our breathing collided on each others faces and his eyes poured into mine.

I couldn't move.

He combed one hand through the stray strands of hair that were hanging across my face and then cupped it on my neck, close enough to smooth his thumb over my check. He smiled and pulled me in further.

It was the most delicate kiss. His lips grazed mine in such sweetness it was as if he was afraid to break my lips to pieces if he kissed any harder.

It was so heartfelt that I couldn't help but kiss back with the same tenderness.

For a second, I wasn't sure what would happen but I didn't care, I had forgotten who I was, where I was and what it was. The only thing I could think of, was him.

R&R please!!
