"Blossom wake up!"
Blossom was awoken by her sister's scream. Bubbles was staring at her with a perplexed expression.
"What?"
Bubbles then filled her sister in on what was the problem.
"WHAT!? Im late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!!"
The puff leader changed quickly and flew downstairs to eat breakfast. Buttercup was stocked by how fast she finished her plate. When she was done, she flew outside to meet the ruffs.
"I can't believe you guys didn't wake me up earlier!"
"We tried, but you were passed out."
The six of them then flew to school in what Blossom thought would be a silent flight.
"So me and Boomer are going to the dance together. What about you guys?"
Bubbles said enlighting the dance.
"Well I was planning to ask Buttercup, but she might not want to go."
Butch elbowed Buttercup playfully, while she grew annoyed.
"Im going, but not with you."
The greens then laughed at each other, while the blues joined in.
"What about you Blossom? Are going to go to the dance with anyone?"
"Hey maybe she can finally man up, and ask Dexter."
Both had an evil grin on their faces, while Blossom send them a glare back.
Though on the other hand, Brick felt something turn in his stomach. Just by the mention of Dexter, would put him a bad mood.
"Well Blossom?"
"Just because its a dance, doesn't always mean you have to have a date. Besides I'm not the only one going alone, Brick is going alone too."
Brick then nodded to confirm her statement. But the blue sister had another plan in mind.
"Why not just go together then? I mean me and Boomer, Buttercup and Butch. Might as well go together."
All looked at the two, but before they could argue. Bubbles made up her decision.
"Well then its settled, you two are eachothers dates."
All arrived at school, and as the bell rung. All went their sepereate ways.
But little did any of them notice, that they were being watched.
Later on that day, the puffs were preparing for the dance. All were happy except the green puff.
"Why do I have to wear this!?"
Buttercup exclaimed whilst yanking on the dress her sisters put on her.
"Aww come on Buttercup, you look cute."
Bubbles hugged her sister while speaking in a baby tone. The leader just giggled at the scene.
"I don't want to look cute, I want to look tough! This girly dress is not me!"
Buttercup began to throw a fit like a child that didn't receive a toy.
"To bad Buttercup, its a dance and you have to look nice."
After all the complaining, the girls super hearing caught the ruffs presence. One by one flew in the window, all wearing nice buttoned up shirts with jeans.
"See Buttercup even the boys dressed up."
"Shut up Bubbles!"
The ruffs were in awe at the sight of how wonderful the puffs looked. Blossom was in a nice laced salmon dress, which had little diamonds on it and went down to her ankles. Buttercup had a lime green dress that went down to her knees. Bubbles had a baby blue curled dress, which was tight on her body.
"Wow Bubbles, you look beautiful."
Boomer said astonished by how his date looked. Bubbles then blushed and kissed his cheek, while the other siblings smiled.
"Get a room you two, now let's hurry up and get this over with!"
The green puff complained still not happy about her look. As they flew outside, Butch complemented Buttercup. Resolving with her punching his shoulder. This left the leaders last, which both just stared at each other.
"Red I gotta say, you look... Uh nice."
Brick said trying to break the silence.
"You don't look bad yourself ruff."
Blossom smiled while elbowing him playfully. With that, all headed towards the dance.
When they arrived, the school was full of cars and teenagers. Many people and couples were dancing, and enjoying themselves. The blues were the first to go dance, then the greens left. Then again the reds were left alone together at their table.
Blossom hated the silence between them, she just couldn't bear it. So she decided to make a conversation.
"Its pretty crowded in here huh?"
"It is, I can't stand it."
"So... How have you been?"
The ruff looked at her confused, then started cracking up. The puff leader stared at him confused herself, has he finally lost his mind or something?
"Whats so funny?"
"You really suck at small talk huh?"
He said whilst still laughing, and whipping a tear from his eye. Blossom then frowned and hmphed him.
"Awe come on red, I was joking."
Before he could finish his statement, he was interrupted by Dexter and some student council members.
"Hello Blossom, I say the dance came out amazing."
Blossom nodded happy with the results. While Brick grew angry again. He kept thinking to himself, why does he feel like this? Seeing Dexter speaking with Blossom, made him feel a weird sensation. Was he jealous? He shook his head denying the thought. He couldn't be jealous, and why would he?
Brick then came back down to earth from his thoughts. The group was still talking to Blossom, then some of them left to go dance. Which left Dexter talking to Blossom. But then something suddenly happened.
"So uh Blossom... I was wondering, would you uh... Dance with me?"
Blossom's face then turned bright red, while Brick's jaw dropped. Poor puff was speechless, she didn't know what to say. She didnt even know if she could answer, but she couldn't leave Dexter hanging.
Before Blossom could answer, she was stopped by a certain ruff.
"Sorry Dorkster, but she's my date. So that means she'll be dancing with me."
Without another word, Brick grabbed Blossom by the arm and dragged her to the dance floor. Leaving a speechless Dexter.
As the reds made their way to the dance floor. Blossom grew angry, how dare he just interrupt her like that! Not only that, but she wasnt even able to answer Dexter back. Before she could scold him, a slow dance started to play. And the ruff leader positioned them, by grabbing her waist.
Instead of arguing with him, Blossom decided to go along with it. Both everted eyes, not wanting to look at each other.
"Why did I even bring her here to dance? I hate dancing! And why can't I look at her?"
"Dont look at him, it'll only make it awkward. But then again, not looking at him will make it awkward too. Why do I feel like this?"
Finally both snapped out of their deep thinking, and looked at each other.
"Her eyes, they are a nice pink that shine in the spotlight. Ew what the hell did I just think!? But then again, she does look lovely tonight."
"His serious expression, its like he's looking deep into my soul. And his crimson eyes, I can stare at them all day. What!? Did I just think that!? I can't like a ruff! But he does look nice in those clothes"
Brick began to twirl her with the smoothness of the song. And Blossom moved along with the rhythm. From a far, their siblings were smiling. Finally all their hard had somewhat paid off. But on the other side of the dance floor, where the tables were. Dexter, was observing them from afar as well.
He began to feel humiliated, and quite jealous. Leaving Blossom alone was the worse thing he could do. Olga was a nice girl and all, but Blossom was different. She was always by his side, never questioned his reasons for doing things. He just felt that Olga understood his pain, for the loss of an older sibling. He thought that she could help him, and maybe there was something more. But it didn't feel the same as he felt with Blossom.
He had planned out a whole apology, and everything. But all that back fired when the ruff stole her from him. Now they were on the dance floor enjoying themselves. But he knew he would never give up.
