Chapter 4 pen pals and connections
*it's time for them to finally meet and possibly a huge point in the plot ;P*
Brick and his brothers sat around the back of the class room, Butch was half asleep and Boomer was browsing on his cell phone. "Why are we even doing this!? It's so damn early!" Butch groaned hiding his head in the balled up hoodie on his desk. They were the first students to get there so they had to wait a bit longer for the others to arrive.
"Shh" Brick gave his brother a scolding look, even if he was impossibly excited that didn't mean he'd act a fool of himself like Butch. Boomer looked bored, but he knew pissing his eldest brother off would be a huge mistake. It took thirty more minutes for all the students to show up. After they all sat at their desks did the teacher finally decide to speak.
"Okay students due to where we will be I want you all *she stops and looks directly at Butch* on your best behavior. That means no antagonizing the patients, no cussing, no horseplay, no loudness, NO WANDERING and stay where the staff brings you" the teacher continued to look at Butch while everyone else but his brothers tried to stiffel their chuckles.
Within the next 10 minutes the class was on the road toward their destination. The ride to Townsville asylum was quiet, that wasn't surprising due to the fact that the bus was full of half asleep teenagers.
When they pulled up to the front of the building is when Brick truly got a look at Blossom's life. It was a tall Victorian style building that looked old and worn down, the windows mostly had been barred and the door was what you would characterize with a classic horror film. The entire place had a depressed feel to it and gave Brick a sinking feeling. No girl or boy belonged here, life must have been hard for all the patients.
They filed off the bus and into the lobby. Brick got a look at some of the nurses on break, who were casually sipping on coffee. Waiting for them was obviously a doctor from the looks of his white coat and stethoscope draped around his neck. Next to him on both sides looked to be about twenty security guards, all were men that had a stalky build.
"Welcome students of Townsville high! I am Dr. Himillston and I will be the main supervisor of this field trip" the brown haired man with glasses clapped his hands together. "These security guards will take you to the rooms of your pen pals, so I will call up and group each student by the number of room they are visiting" he finished with a very fake smile and Brick noticed that before everyone else.
The list went on and the students were in the process of grouping together. Brick was lost in his thoughts until he heard the mention of his name. "Visiting room 54A are Butch Jojo, Brick Jojo and Boomer Jojo" the doctor said pointing to the security guard that would take them there. "Thank god our Pen pals share a room" Boomer sighed in relief for being with his brothers.
"Wait! Then I know the names of your Pen pals!" Brick whispered as the security guard began to lead them. "Seriously!" Butch whispered back getting closer. "Yeah, Blossom said she shared her room with her sisters Bubbles and Buttercup" Brick smiled at his brother's actual interest. They walked down a few long hallways and finally came face to face with room 54A.
When the guard opened the door and told them to wait a second had Brick's stomach clench in anticipation. Then guard said something that made Brick internally scowl "hey girls your Pen pals are here! Behave and we won't have to be harsh on you" now he saw what Blossom mentioned as mistreating.
Brick entered the room room and saw something that took his breath away. All three girls were absolutely beautiful, unlike the ones at his school they wore no makeup, were only in baggy white pjs instead of slutty attire and had natural curves that showed through them.
He locked his red eyes with the redhead who had pink eyes. 'That's gotta be her!' Brick thought smiling. He noticed the blond holding a stuffed octopus, the poor girl looked scared half to death. The brunette on the other hand had a hard protective look, obviously for her sisters. "Alright girls come here" the guard ushered them forward. The redhead was the first to come, followed by the brunette with the blond hiding behind her.
"Blossom this is Brick your Pen pal, why don't you two have a seat at the table and get acquainted with each other" The guard said, Brick saw her eyes light up a lot at the mention of his name and he was no different.
Boomer was introduced to Bubbles who timidly walked to the table with him. Butch and Buttercup's introduction was different from the look of pure attraction on him and the look of annoyed embarrassment on her.
Brick looked at Blossom face to face and smiled "Hey Blossom it's a pleasure to finally meet you! " he said holding out his hand for a shake. Blossom gave him a timid but warm smile and shook his hand. Hers were delicate and soft to the touch, her alabaster skin was free of imperfections save the small cluster of freckles that littered her nose bridge, what got him was the smell of cherry blossoms that emitted from her.
"Hi Brick..." she continued to smile, she was same in person kind and shy with a hint of apparent intelligence just by one look at her. The others began to converse with one another, but the noise was completely drowned out by the intense connection the redheads felt by just one look.
"I brought you a gift, it's a copy of The Bridge to Terabithia... it's for you to keep because you like reading" Brick smiles handing her the book. She took the book and grazed her fingers along the raised title on the hard cover. "Thank you, this gift was very thoughtful" Blossom gave him and even brighter smile. He was kind just like the was in the letters, what gave her the best feeling was the look of no judgment on his features.
He looked like a strong person, physically and mentally. Blossom couldn't help but feel herself drawn to his unique red eyes, like her own she hadn't seen any like them. He smelled of cinnamon and sandalwood, it comforted her. When they began to talk it just poured out of them. Hours went by and the conversation between them never ceased. It was like they truly hit it off.
When he had to leave he felt sad, so did she. They actually hugged and when he and his brothers were escorted away she sighed and flopped on to her bed. Brick gave a half smile that vanished when he saw something suspicious down the hall as he walked back, the only thing that went through his head was 'why is there a chained door here?'.
