Chapter XII
Downer
"Are you guys ready?" I shouted upstairs at my sisters who were still half asleep for their night out.
"Yes! I'm ready, I'm ready!" said Bubbles while flying down the stairs.
"Bubbles, your shirt is inside-out." I sighed while pulling on her shirt to stop her.
"Eeck! That would have been embarrassing." she giggled while taking off the shirt and turning it the right way.
"Buttercup! Get you butt down here!"
"I'm coming, I'm coming." yawned Buttercup while making her way downstairs. "Why are we going to school early anyways?"
I bit my lip clearing my head of last night's events and spoke as though I don't see or hear anything. "I just don't want to meet the Ruffs on the way to school this time."
"True that, Butch is getting on my nerves."
That's not the only thing he is on. Aaah what am I thinking clean thoughts, clean thoughts. I sighed while trying to keep my mind away from my sister and Butch…I'm not even going to finish that.
"Ok, let's go!" Bubbles smiled while throwing us some toasts and an apple as we made our way to school and I was happy to say we didn't run into them…until inside the school.
"Damn it Butterfly you need to watch where you are going!" Butch yelled while getting up and letting Buttercup look up to him.
"Me?!" she growled while getting up and pressing close to him.
Did they always fight so close? I thought while biting my lip trying to remember all those times on how close they got.
"Yes, you Butterfly." he smirked down.
"That was very rude you guys we were walking here first please pay attention next time." Bubbles said and I could see at the corner of my eye her helping Boomer up.
Did they always help each other up? I said while trying to remember how it was mainly Boomer helping her up.
"Hey, Pinky what's with the silences you usually have something witty to say to my brothers?" Brick stared while I could feel my sisters' and his brothers' eyes on me.
Got to keep it under control, got to keep it under control. "Well, Brick it seems like my sisters got it." What was that?!
He stared at me and smirked, "Ooh, is Ms. Leader Girl turning soft on us. Hey, hey everyone, Blossom is turning soft on us!" he shouted as everyone was stopping to listen in on our conversation. "What Pinky you scared to talk to us now, can't handle the pressure." he said while walking around me.
"Man, who would have thought Blossom would turn soft on us." laughed Boomer while I looked at Bubbles who was looking at me with pity, but she didn't stop Boomer from laughing.
"I'm touched that she could be soften by us." grinned Butch while Buttercup just elbowed him and gave him a hateful look.
They don't mean it. They are just going to kiss and make up as soon as my back is turn. And I knew this asshole was just playing around with me. He was using my mind to play trick on me and I told him all those things! Damn I'm such an idiot. I didn't say anything when I punch him into a locker making a dint in it, I didn't say anything when my sisters were praising me, and I didn't say anything when everyone was just staring in disbelieve. But before I walked away I did say something. "I hope you burn in Hell Brick."
"Wow Bloss that was cool!" grinned Buttercup while running to catch up with me. "I mean I thought it was weird that you didn't have a snappy, smartass comeback, but that was classic haha."
"That was different Blossom; I'm happy you stood up for yourself, but I think punching him that hard onto that locker wasn't a good idea."
"Aah, the school can fix it you know how many times they have to fix mine and Butch's mess."
"True I'm very surprise that the whole school hasn't came down." Bubbles giggled.
"That should be my senior prank; Buttercup makes the whole high school come down with Butch's face! Has a nice ring to it."
"Sounds harsh, Buttercup."
"Ah it's not, he will only cry for a week." she grinned while they both didn't notice I wasn't talking still. "Hey, maybe you can beat Boomer with the school too."
"That's mean Buttercup! I would beat him, but not with the school!"
"Soft Bubbles! Come on be like Blossom and hit him to the ceiling or something."
"Blossom! Tell her, I can't do that!"
"Blossom! Tell her to stop being a baby!"
"I'm not!"
"Yes, you are!"
"I'm not!"
"Yes, you are!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"Shut The Fuck Up!" I yelled while turning to face them and I'm pretty sure the whole school heard me, but I wasn't in the mood anymore. "Just don't bother me with this now, I'm fed up." I said while flying to my class before they had anything to say back. When I got there, people stared at me worried and I just rolled my eyes and sat down looking at my homework one last time to make sure I didn't miss anything.
"Damn bitch!" Brick said in the hallway and I smirked knowing he was talking about me. I looked over at bit to see him with an ice pack on his eye and his brothers telling him to calm down.
"Come on bro, she ain't got nothing on you."
"But man, she got you good." said Boomer while poking the side of Brick's face and he got a hit in the head from both his brothers.
How Bubbles can like this boy is beyond me. I said while shaking my head at Boomer's intelligence.
"Well, you got every class with her; you have to suck it up."
"I am! Just get to your class." he sighed out while looking like he didn't want to hear this anymore, but I doubt this is the end of it by the look he's gave me. They left for their classes as Brick walked right to me. And would it be the day Ms. Wilson was late. He slapped my desk and I just looked up at him hard.
"What do you want Brick?" I sighed while moving my homework out of the way just in case he want to get back at me that way. He would get something better than a black eye then.
"What is your problem Blossom! I should take you down right now for this!"
I felt the whole class's eyes fall on us and I knew they were waiting for a show. Why do people have to be so nosy all the time? "You started it Brick, I was just giving you a touch of what you deserved."
"What I deserved are you fucking kidding me! I-"
"You what Brick? You are a Ruff of course you deserved it! You're lucky I didn't fuck you up right now!" I shouted while standing up, so I didn't look so small from my seat.
"Is that a challenge bitch." he growled while looking down at me and I thought I saw a smirk forming; I knew he was trying to play with my mind again.
"You know what Brick, I'm not in the mood to do this just fuck off." I sighed while sitting back in my seat.
"What no we're n-" he stared about to hit the desk again, but Ms. Wilson got his fist.
Guess he wasn't using his full strength.
"Mr. Jojo, I would like if you didn't hit my desks and take your seat now or you can spend your after school time clean them."
"Yes, Ms. Wilson." Brick mumbled while pulling his arm away and took his seat as I felt his glare, but I blow it off.
Lunch Time
I kept as far away from Brick as well as I could do with him being in all my classes and I tried dodging my sisters and their counterparts too. I really wasn't looking forward to lunch because everyone is there, and I knew things might get ugly. "Bloss!" yelled Lian while I was trying to avoid my whole table.
I sighed harder and turned around smiling then said, "What is it Lian, you need something?"
"Well, I was seeing you make your way to the wrong table, so I had to make sure you were ok."
"I was? Silly me thank you, Lian." I smiled more while making my way to our table with her not far behind. I saw my sisters staring at me and I knew very well they were going to ask or at least tell our table about the outburst I had. I sat down and started eating without a word and being my crabby sister, Buttercup was the one to ask 1st.
"So, what was that damn outrage on us for?"
"Yeah Blossom, we were just asking for you to help."
Mitch immediately dropped his spoon out of his hand and said, "That was you! I thought it was Buttercup and she got a pole up her ass or something." I gave him a mean glare and Buttercup kicked him hard making him hold his knee in pain.
"That was her, dumbass and I want to know what her problem was." Buttercup stared.
"I don't have to answer everything you know." I said while eating my sandwich and I saw Buttercup streaming. Guess that wasn't the answer she was looking for. Lucky Butch just had to crash into her when she started standing up to probably getting the answer out of me. Or was that plan?
"Really Butch, you are really trying to drive me crazy!"
He smirked, "Oh-no looks like Butterfly has figured out my plan guess I'm going to have to annoy her more."
"Why you good for nothing little dick!" she yelled and just like that our table was the source of the entertainment. "You need to leave me the fuck alone before your face ends up in your ass!"
"Aww, that cold bitch, I'm sure you would love to see your face in a wash machine to clean all of that ugly off of you." he said while stepping closer to her making their chest touch.
Really, really!
Usually it would be my time to call it off, but I found myself just looking at them pissed; so Bubbles stood up and got in between them. "Guys can we please not fight again! I'm hungry and I want a calm, peaceful lunch."
And right on time Boomer and Brick come in to join the show. "Now Bubbles why don't you just back off and eat your lunch before you brake a nail."
She stared mad at him then said, "I'm not a baby like you Boomer, I can handle myself fine."
"Really you are the crybaby of the group you know you can't do anything." he stared back while I could see the 'I'm so sorry I'm saying this to you' in his eyes. Outside it started to rain and I was still sitting in my seat watching my sisters and their counterparts have a fake fight.
"See Butterfly you are just as weak as ever."
"Please you are the weak one with those crappy comebacks!"
"I'm not a crybaby, you are so stupid!"
"I know you are but what am I?"
"Yo, Pinky." stared Brick giving me a playful smirk. "Aren't you going to join in on the fight; you seem to want to."
That was it. I. Blossom Utonium. Snap. I stood up from my seat and hit my fist hard on a trash can making the hold lunch room and the "fighting" couples stop all together. "I want you all on the roof now."
"What the hell, no bitch." stated Butch.
"Anyways its raining how are we supposed to go up there?" asked Boomer.
"All of you get you asses up on that roof now before I throw you guys out that damn window!" I growled and everyone was freaking out as my sisters and our counterparts stood wide-eyed at me, but they made their way up there fast. I looked at the whole lunch room as they started eating and talking again known better not to say anything.
Roof
"God, why are we up here?" groaned Butch while the rain was starting to turn his spiked up hair down.
"Like really this isn't good for my hair Blossom." said Bubbles while petting one her long, wet ponytail.
"Yeah, you know how much hair gel me and Butch have to use to get it like this."
"Wow, Boomer that puts you on a whole new level for me." Buttercup said while rolling her eyes.
"Oh, like you don't work on your hair, Butterfly."
"Not as much as you both combined."
"Why you little-"
"SHUT UP!" I yelled again and they were quiet. My sisters were standing next to their counterparts and Brick was leaning on the wall; each of them waiting for me to say why I called them up here.
Was I really going to lay their dirt in front of each other?
The blue and green couples sighed, "Could we hurry this up, I want to get far away from this person as possible."
Hell yeah! "Oh really, so you guys can dance the night away or have a picnic under the stars again."
Their eyes shoot up, "W-What?" All of them except Brick were frozen like a deer caught in headlights.
"You heard me as clear as day." I stared while crossing my arms. "Bubbles and Buttercup, you have been dating these Ruffs!"
"Blossom! We didn't want you to find out!" Bubbles panicked while trying to get close to me, but I stepped back from her.
"What the hell were you spying on us?" growled Buttercup.
"Wait, you guys are actually dating?" stared Brick while looking at our little siblings.
"Hehee, well yeah we are." smiled Boomer nervously while putting his hand behind his head.
"Damn it! I thought we were more careful." groaned Butch while slapping his forehead.
"What the hell is going on here!" Brick yelled right in his brothers' face making Boomer step back while Butch just looked down.
"How long where you girls dating these Ruffs?" I asked not remembering if the book told me. They both looked down at their feet and I got angrier. "I said how long?"
"Since November." whispered Bubbles playing with her fingers.
"October." said Buttercup and I could kind of see her brows going together.
7 months for Buttercup and 6 months for Bubbles! They kept it for that long!
"You were dating the air bubble for 6 months, Boomer! And 7 months Butch!"
"It wasn't like we thought you would find out." sighed Butch while leaning on the wall.
"Yeah, we were hoping to keep it a secret until well you guys got together." Bubbles smiled a little.
"I told you time and time again I'm not dating him! I hate him for God sake! Why don't you guys understand that!" I yelled. They weren't even going to tell me! "So, you hoped just to keep this thing a secret from me, your own sister!" I yelled right in her face and I saw tears forming.
Buttercup moving in front of Bubbles, so she was in my face and said, "It's not like you would have agreed with it!"
"I still don't!" I shouted while I could see that the Ruffs were having their own argument. "Those Ruffs have been nothing but bad to us and you want to give your hearts to them! They are just going to break it just like they always do with the girls they date! Are you girls that clueless!"
"Shut up, Blossom! I can love who I want, when I want! You aren't the boss of me!" growled Buttercup getting in a defense stance.
"Actually, I am the boss of you! I'm the oldest and the leader of this group no matter how you look at it! You are not dating Butch Jojo of the Rowdyruff Boys! And Bubbles you can't date Boomer either!"
I was sure Bubbles would have just cried and said yes, but she stood next to Buttercup with angry tears running down her cheeks mixed with rain and said, "Hell no!"
"What was that?" I said staring her down coldly.
"I said hell no! I love Boomer and I'm not letting you take him away from me. He understands me, he cares for me, he treats me better than all those boys I ever dated, and I can't believe you aren't happy for me and Buttercup!"
Really? I can't be when you guys said you were going to keep it away from me!
"Yeah, Butch is someone I don't want to lose and you're saying I can't see him again makes you a horrible sister for not doing the right thing! You need to pull you bitchy, smart head out of your damn ass and support who we care about!"
You guys are the horrible ones; I'm trying to help you out, but all you want to do is go with them. I could see that the boys were done; Boomer and Butch were far away from Brick who looked a bit…well unreadable. "You know what, that's the way you want to do it fine. I'm not except them and I don't except you two." I said while staring them down. "I don't want to talk to you right now maybe not even for a week or so."
"Fine by me." stared Buttercup.
Bubbles just looked angry at me and then she grabbed Boomer's hand. "C-Can we go."
"Sure, this place blows right now." he said while looking at Brick and then 2 different shades of blue went up into the sky.
"Let's go Butterfly." Butch said while picking her up then taken to the sky; not before giving a deadly look to Brick.
Then it was just me and him on the roof as I just looked up watching the sky. I felt his eyes on me and I looked at him coldly and said, "What?"
"Nothing." he said still with an unreadable look and then he took off to the sky as I watched him disappear. I sighed and walked back into the building known we still had classes to go to. I spun around real fast drying myself off and then started my way to my next class looking at the floor a bit bitter. Well, that could have gone better.
M. B.: Hey, I'm back! I found my flash drive and dance has slowed down. I will get to the other stories soon. So, review and…wait and see!
