Blossom's P.O.V
I walk through the door and Buttercup races towards me.
"Where have YOU been?"
"I took a walk…"
"You have been taking a lot of walks lately."
"Well, It has been pretty days with the sun shining."
"But it is night time right now!"
I look out the window, that's right. Once again I forgot the Stars and Moon in the dark sky.
"Well?"
Professor walks up, "She may do as she pleases Buttercup! Although, please come before bedtime Blossom."
"S..Sorry, Professor.
With this Buttercup goes up to bed, which I finally notice she has her pajamas on and I can hear Bubbles snoring. I start walking up the stairs when suddenly I see fire on the fourth step. It says 'Every time you wait, the closer I get'. I sucked a bunch of air in. Tonight I was going to find who the monster was…
The next day….
Bubbles's P.O.V
Blossom seems annoyed. Is she having troubles with her nightmares? I fly over to Professor who is over the stove cooking.
I whisper," Professor?"
"Yes, Dear?"
"Blossom…"
"There is nothing we can do, I tried so many tests. You and Buttercup even went in her dreams and you came out saying she wasn't having any, but she was"
"She is hurting, Professor!" I cried with tears whelming in my eyes.
He takes me in his arms and sways me back and forth, "I know."
Blossom's P.O.V
"Buttercup! Stop scratching the table!"
"Blossom! Stop daydreaming!"
I turned away from her with my nose stuck up. She went back to tearing up the table. I look down on the floor. I AM SO ANGRY! I was so prepared for the monster last night but he never came! He must have known. No matter, I will be prepared whenever he shows up. Well, I hope I will be. Bubbles sits by me. I saw that Professor was holding her and I see she is sad.
I lean over and whisper, "Bubbles?"
"Yes, Blossom", she whispers back.
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah. The question is 'Are you alright?'"
I was surprised and felt guilty. I flew over to her; yeah I can fly now, and hugged her.
"I am fine, just a few nightmares. It is nothing serious."
She nods her head while wiping tears from her eyes. I feel so guilty lying. I am Blossom! I never lie, but I have to for this situation. I must lie to protect the ones I love.
Right then, Buttercup pounded on the table and demanded pancakes. Professor then came over and told Buttercup that she wouldn't get any if she acted that way! Buttercup snorted and looked away from Professor and said she didn't care. With that her tummy growled.
She screamed, "DON'T GIVE IN TO THE ENEMY SO EASILY!"
A smile swept across my face. I forgot what I smile felt like. I couldn't help but whisper 'Thanks, Buttercup' through my laughter.
