Segment 9 - A Necklace
"Yo. So there's gonna be a party tonight. Called my boy for that Graffix Bong." Butch spoke and Buttercup looked at him "Okay, so you want me to invite Blossom?" she asked "Yeah, She needs to hit this Bong. You do too, but yo. It's the real way to find God." Butch spoke and Buttercup laughed "That's just Ganj in general." she spoke as Brick entered the room.
"Hey Buttercup, can we talk?" Brick asked and Buttercup shrugged. "It's a free country dude." She spoke "This about Blossom?" She continued and Brick nodded, before taking a moment to fix his hat. "Dude, I don't share my sister's secrets so you can fuck right off." Buttercup spoke and Brick simply stared at the green eyed powerpuff. "But I will say this." Buttercup started, and Brick maintained his gaze. "Blossom just really wants to feel loved. So if your serious about her, make her feel loved." Buttercup spoke and Brick nodded "Tonight I'm gonna make her feel loved, so she can finally trust me." Brick spoke and Buttercup nodded in approval at the red ruff's vow.
Brick had enlisted the help of Bubbles in the first part of his plan. The two had headed to a nearby jewelry store with hopes of picking up a necklace. "So you come to me, instead of Blossom for this?" Bubbles was confused "Well yeah, you have good music taste, and that's quite the necklace you always wear." Brick complimented Bubbles who giggled at the kindness displayed.
"So, who's this for?" Bubbles spoke "Let's just say someone who loves to take charge, and is in need of some honest love." Brick spoke and Bubbles squealed "That's so sweet Brick!" she laughed "I'm a hopeless romantic so i'm a sucker for this stuff, let's find something for this person." Bubbles spoke as she and Brick walked through the store. "Look at that…" Brick spoke as his eye caught a shiny silver necklace. "What does it say?" Bubbles asked getting a bit closer to read the words spelled out on the necklace. "It says, "Always in My Heart." Brick spoke.
"That's beautiful." Bubbles spoke "Yeah." Brick spoke as he went to purchase it "She'll love it." Bubbles reassured. "Sure as hell hope so." Brick spoke as he finished paying for the necklace. "Thanks. For helping out Bubbles." Brick spoke and was met with a warm hug from the blonde. "Anytime!" Bubbles smiled as she slid her headphones on and flew off.
"So the party is tonight, the dinner is tomorrow?" Boomer asked and Brick nodded "YES!" he said annoyed as he had repeated the information of the party to his brother. "Did you ask Blossom yet?" Boomer asked "I don't know if I'm gonna invite her to the dinner. Don't want to move too fast with her." Brick spoke
"YOU'RE A WUSS!" Butch called from the kitchen. "Shut up! You're the wuss! When are you gonna ask Buttercup out?!" Brick shot and Butch gave no response. "Yeah that's what I thought!" Brick yelled "Wait he and Buttercup aren't seeing each other?" Boomer asked "Course not. Far as i'm concerned all they do is get crossfaded and sometimes have sex." Brick responded
"AY WATCH YOUR MOUTH BRICK!" Butch screamed from the kitchen "Watch yo mouth Brick!" he repeated as Brick and Boomer laughed in the main room "AY! You ask about me and Buttercup again, and I'mma tell Blossom you still talk to Princess or something!" Butch spoke arriving in the main room "Disrespectful ass." Butch continued as he began to walk back to the kitchen. "You giving her the necklace tonight?" Boomer asked as Brick took a moment to stare at the beautiful piece of jewelry. "Yeah." He smiled.
"PARTY TONIGHT!" Buttercup screamed as she opened Blossom's door and then walked to Bubbles' door, opening it repeating the statement. "I don't think so." Blossom said as she rolled back up in bed. "WHAT?!" Buttercup reappeared in the doorway. "BUBBLES!" she called before walking into Blossom's room. "Come on, there'll be drinks, weed, dancing, all the stuff you like Bloss. Oh and Brick will be there too." Buttercup chimed and Blossom groaned.
Buttercup knew what was going on now. She sat at the edge of the bed. "Brick isn't Stone." She spoke, and was met with no response from Blossom. "He clearly cares about you, I'll take it a step further. Brick likes you Blossom. A lot and you like him!" Buttercup spoke and Blossom sat up
"I'm not having this conversation."
"Why are you refusing to let your heart feel!?" Buttercup asked and Blossom laid back down. "I'm not doing this. I'm not." She argued. "Blossom, you're hurting yourself. Look at yourself. You're suppressing your feelings." Buttercup spoke before turning towards the door and screaming "BUBBLES!" again.
"Blossom, you need to come. If not for Brick, just to relax at the party. Come on…." Buttercup spoke as she got up and went to Blossom's drawer pulling out a small cup that read "Cherry Diesel" before walking over to Blossom
"Butch got the graffix bong, you'll be able to smoke this. BUBBLES!" Buttercup turned again as Blossom got up and took the weed away from Buttercup. "Okay, I'll go. But, I don't want to talk about how I feel about Brick." Blossom spoke putting her weed away. "And if you see him, while drunk, high, or crossfaded?" Buttercup asked before turning again
"BUBBLES!"
She called as Blossom shrugged "Then I talk to him. Just, I'm just…not looking to commit." Blossom spoke and Buttercup shook her head "Whatever helps you sleep at night." she spoke as Bubbles finally arrived in the doorway. Both sisters looked at Bubbles, who took off her headphones and asked "Who are we talking about?"
