Chapter 11
Blossom's P.O.V.
As I was fixing up my flowers, Jeanne entered our dorm.
"Hey darlin'." Jeanne said.
"Oh, hi Jeanne." I replied.
"Pretty flowers. Where'd ya get 'em from?"
"Let's just say they are from a really cute guy." I said to her.
Jeanne looked at me and managed to smile.
"Don't tell me they're from that Dash kid?" she asked me.
"Maybe." I said, blushing.
"Y'know, he seems like a good kid."
"He's a Roller Skater."
'I wish I knew how to roller skate, but I don't mind bein' a Punk Girl." Jeanne said.
I looked at Jeanne right in the eyes and asked her if she had gone to Madame Perrault and confessed yet.
"No, I haven't." she responded.
"Are you scared or something?" I asked her.
"That old geezer is scary. I don't want to get kicked out of the Laverre Academy." Jeanne said sadly.
I put my arms around Jeanne and pulled her into a hug. This was a real tough situation for her.
Linnea's P.O.V
The mood in the Furisode Girl camp was uneasy as we sat down to dinner that night. Kali was still annoyed about the night before and even Katherine and Blossom were both unusually quiet. Me? I was busy feeding my Aromatisse some Pokémon snacks, while trying to eat my dinner. The food at the Laverre Academy is quite good even though Madame Diglett has the cooks on a strict budget.
"So, I got flowers from Dash today." Blossom said, trying to make conversation.
"I saw them. They look really nice." I said to her.
"They smell nice too." Katherine said.
I looked at Kali who was still scowling.
"Kali, you've barely said a word since this morning." I said.
"So?" Kali grunted before shoving another spoonful of pasta into her mouth.
"So, I'm wondering if you're still mad with us about last night."
"Yep." Kali said throwing her fork onto her plate.
"Kali, we're really sorry." Katherine said.
But Kali just got up and walked out of the room. I looked at both Blossom and Katherine who had their heads down in shame.
"I'll be back." I told them before I left the dining hall to find Kali.
Kali's P.O.V
I made my way back to our dorm. I was feeling really angry, but I didn't know if it was because I failed as a leader or if it was because of Katherine's friend Lisa. Just as I laid on my bed, Linnea walked in.
Oh great! Now, I'm in for a lecture. I thought.
"What was with that outburst?" Linnea asked me angrily.
"Don't start, Linnea. I'm not in the mood." I replied in an unusually calm voice.
"Are you still pissed off about last night?"
"Yes!"
"I suggest you lose that tone with me before I do something I'll regret." Linnea said, glaring at me.
"Like what?" I asked.
"Giving you a slap!" Linnea shouted at me.
I cringed. I didn't want Linnea slapping my face so I took a deep breath and calmed down.
"Are you calm now?" Linnea asked.
"Yes." I replied.
"Good. Now apologise to the others."
I sighed before returning to the dining room.
Katherine's P.O.V.
As I finished my dinner, I saw Linnea and Kali return to the dining room.
"Katherine?"
"Yes, Kali?" I asked her.
"I'm sorry for being rude." Kali said.
"No, I'm sorry for not saying no to my friend." I said.
"No, Katherine. I was out of line. I should've been more considerate to you catching up with Lisa. How long has it been since you last saw her?"
"A year." I replied.
"That's a long time." Blossom said.
"Agreed." Linnea said.
"So, are we still friends?" Kali asked me.
"Of course we are. We're Furisode Girls forever and always." I said.
"This calls for a group hug!" Kali said, smiling.
We then entered a group hug. The Furisode Girls were back on the same page.
