The reds were still dancing, falling deeper into the music. Brick twirled Blossom a few more times, before he felt a stare crawl up his spine. He turned to meet up with two blue masked eyes.
Dexter gave him a stern look, and Brick didnt like it at all. So he decided to send him his famous cold stare back. Brick could feel Dexters anger towards him, and he was satisfied. Though he kept his stare on the nerd, he still danced with Blossom.
After the song the two headed back to the table, in which Dexter was still at. When they arrived, he stood up. Blossom then grew nervous on what happened earlier, while Brick grew annoyed and still wore his stare.
"Uh Blossom... Could I talk to you for a quick moment?"
Dexter said while approaching the pink puff. Though Blossom was nervous about it, she agreed. Both went to the hall, leaving the ruff at the table.
"Blossom I'm sorry."
Blossom looked at him confused.
"I've been a terrible person. Not only have I abandoned you, but I have also let you down. You have always been by my side all the time, and to repay you I left you. I thought Ogla could stop this pain, and we could help eachother. But I was wrong, so... so so wrong."
Dexter looked to the floor in shame, while Blossom gave a worried face. But it soon turned into a warm smile.
"Dexter I may not know how I feel about all this. Or on what had happened to us after Bell. But I know, that I could never stay mad at you."
He looked at her and smiled.
"I know we have a lot to catch up on, but can we be friends again?"
"That would be nice Dexter."
Both smiled and hugged eachother. After that, they headed back to the tables.
Brick was becoming impatient, but seeing them return relieved him.
"OK boys, I'll be right back. Im going to go get us some snacks and drinks."
As soon as she left, the boys then stared at each other.
"Hello Dorkster."
"Thats Dexter to you."
"So, you ditched red huh?"
"I admit yes I did, but I am very sorry for that. I regret it very much."
"You should be. Because if you ever hurt her like that again, I'll pound ya into next week!"
"Since when do you care about her!? Arent you one of her arch enemies!?"
Brick stood up from his seat, and grabbed Dexter by the collar.
"Thats for me to know, and for you to find out. No one hurts her except me, got it?"
Brick said in a stern tone, making sure he got the point. In which he did, so he nodded. Brick let go of his collar, and relaxed a bit. But he wasn't finished speaking his mind. He felt a new feeling that he did not recognize. But he was very aware on what it was. It was possessiveness. And he wasn't afraid to show it.
"Just to let you know, I ain't giving up red to anyone. I won't even think of doing so soon, or anytime. So whatever your planning, it ends here."
Brick was a bit taller than Dexter, in which he towered over him. But that doesnt mean that Dexter was going to run away, with his tail between his legs.
He may not be big or tuff, but he was smart. And he could be just as ruthless as the ruff.
"Uh guys... are you OK?"
Blossom interrupted, holding the drinks and snacks in hand.
"We are just fine red, don't worry."
"Ya fine."
Both boys sat down and looked away from each other. While Blossom decided to sit in between them. The blues and greens also made their way back to the table.
"That.Was.Amazing!"
The blue puff said out of breath.
"Ya I gotta say that was pretty cool."
The blues and greens were satisfied by the dances. Blossom just smiled, but was distracted by the tension between the two boys.
"So Bloss, did you and Brick enjoy the slow dance?"
Buttercup questioned while giving them a sly grin. She received two flustered leaders.
"Man these sweets over here are good!"
Boomer exclaimed with his mouth full. While the others just rolled their eyes.
But both puff sisters noticed that Dexter was there. And both were confused of why he was there.
"So Dexter are you and Blossom friends again?"
The blue puff questioned him innocently, while the young genius blushed.
"Uh yes, we made up after all what had happened."
Bubbles smiled, while Buttercup was still not sure. But the rest of the night went well. They laughed and had fun, enjoying themselves. All except Brick and Dexter, who were giving each other death glares here and there.
The dance soon came to an end, and everyone was packing up and ready to leave. All went outside to start heading home.
"So Blossom um...tomorrow wanna hang out? Im sorry its awkward, but I would like to catch up."
Blossom was silent, she didn't know how to answer. Till she felt someone's presence behind her. It was Brick. For some reason, his presence felt intimidating. She turned around, and he gave her a certain look.
"Uh sorry Dexter, I'm hanging out with Brick tomorrow."
Brick then gave a wicked grin to Dexter, accomplished of himself.
"Oh that's quite alright, we can hangout next time."
Dexter said nonchalantly, though Brick could read his anger like a book.
Dexter said goodbye, and walked home. While the ruffs and puffs flew home. During the flight, Brick decided to get into Blossom's business.
"So red, you and Dorkster are friends again huh?"
"Ya I guess so."
Brick saw unsureness in her eyes.
"Do you even want to be friends with him? Or did you just agree because you felt bad?"
That made Blossom think for a moment. Why did she agree? Was it because she felt bad? Or that she just couldn't say no?
"I don't know, but I forgave him. Everyone deserves a second chance."
"Do I deserve a second chance?"
Blossom froze then looked at him. His eyes were seeking for an answer.
"Brick you are on your second chance, and nobody deserves it more than you do."
Brick was touched by her words, and he smiled. All of them arrived at the utonuim household. The blues cuddled, the greens messed with each other, and the reds stood silent for awhile.
"Tonight was great Brick, thank you for being my date."
"No problem red, it was my pleasure."
Brick pat her head, then both puffs and ruffs went separate ways.
"I gotta admit today was fun."
"See Buttercup I told you it would be awesome."
"Whatever so Bloss, what was your favorite part? The part where you and Dexter became friends again, or when Brick danced with you?"
Both sisters gave a devious smile to the leader.
"I liked both, tonight was good."
After that, all went to bed. Before Blossom closed her eyes, she smiled. She was too happy to think about the negative possibilities that could happen tomorrow. Tomorrow was a new day, and she excited for it.
But on the other side of town, enemies were scheming.
"So you got all the information about her right?"
"Yes I do."
"Good, now our plan can finally go into place. Isnt that right Gir?"
The white haired girl said, while hugging her weird green dog. And on the screen of the big computer, the puff leaders profile could be seen.
