Chapter 16: Getting Better

When Bloom, Sky and the rest of the gang headed for Earth that afternoon, Bloom had talked to Vanessa and found out that her father wasn't going into surgery after all, it was a bit surprising, but after only a few days, he had made a pretty good recovery. A week passed. The gang decided to stay on earth a bit longer.

Princess Diaspro still didn't know what to do about Bloom; she knew that Bloom and Sky were so in love with each other, which made it harder. So she kept wondering and thinking about the situation. On one side, she wanted to give up. Nothing she had ever tried managed to separate Sky from that girl, and on the other side, she loved Sky. She was obsessed with him like no one ever had. And she couldn't bear to let him go, it was…unthinkable. One thing was for sure. If she could manage to get Bloom out of the picture, Sky may possibly be all hers.

Sky was planning on asking Bloom to marry him, Flora took Helia to meet her parents, and Techna did the same with Timmy. Layla and Ophir and Stella and Brandon began planning their weddings, which were in five to six months. Musa and Riven were also going to meet each other's families. Sky was just about ready for the final challenge.

"I'm sure my dad will love you, Sky," She said trying to reassure him. They had both been standing outside of Bloom's house for about five minutes.

"Bloom I'm so nervous, I mean…you've been through so many things in the past, and I just want him to know that I have tried to do my best to protect you." Sky said.

"Sky, you have done your best and he knows it, I've told him all about you and how heroic and brave you are, everything's going to be fine". She told him.

"Musa, do you think I should get something for your dad", Riven asked her. He was also pretty nervous about meeting her dad, maybe even his future father in law.

"Maybe, like a tie or something. Just remember to relax, your going to be fine."

"Okay" Riven said taking a deep breathe. He couldn't remember the last time he felt this nervous.

Bloom and Sky

Bloom opened the door to her house. "Mom, dad I'm home," she said, with Sky right behind her.

She walked into the living room where her mother and father were seated.

"Mom, dad I'm so glad to see you" She said happily as they stood up and she gave each of them a warm hug.

"We've missed you too, sweetheart," her father said.

"I'm glad to see you've gotten better dad, we were worried about you, oh which reminds me, dad this is my boyfriend, Sky, Sky this is my dad." She introduced. Sky, feeling nervous like he never had before, extended his hand out and said, "Nice to meet you, sir". Mike shook his hand and said "Same to you Sky, Bloom has told us a lot about you,"

"Bloom has also told me a lot about you" He said, still a bit nervous.

"Sky I'd like to thank you for being at the hospital with Bloom the entire time I was hospitalized, Vanessa tells me that during the whole time you never left her side" He said kindly.

"Oh it was no problem at all sir, I was more than glad to be there for her." He said, a little more relaxed this time, Bloom's father seemed like a very nice person, just like her mom, but still he knew that he would be asked questions.

Riven and Musa

"Okay, so we got him a tie and chocolates, he does like chocolates right"? Riven asked.

"Yea he does, but remember, just relax and be your self, he'll like you, I'm sure of it". Riven looked down at Musa and smiled. She knew just what to say to make him feel better and more confident.

Musa knocked on the door. She didn't have the keys with her.

A few seconds later, someone opened the door.

"Musa!" Greeted her father.

"Dad!" Musa said as she hugged him tightly. After the hug was over, Riven spoke.

"Good evening sir" Musa's father looked at him and said

"You must be Riven, Musa told me so much about you," He said, looking over at Musa, who smiled at both her dad and Riven.

" Oh and these are for you" He said handing him the tie and box of chocolates.

"Hmmm, chocolate, my favorite" He said and thanked Riven. He hadn't known Riven for very long, but all ready he was beginning to like him.

With Flora and Helia

Things were going pretty well for Flora and Helia as well. Flora took Helia to meet her parents. As soon as they met him, they like him. He had shown to be a bright, responsible young man who cared very much for their daughter. They ate and afterwards, Flora took Helia on a tour around the fifth moon of Marigold.

"Helia, what did you think about my parents?" Flora asked him once they were out of her house.

"I liked them, they' re very nice people, do you think they like me?" He asked, knowing that they had, but wanting reassurance.

"Yes Helia of course they liked you, you have nothing to worry about" She said smiling. Helia smiled back at her warmly and leaned in to kiss her but stopped right when their lips were about to touch and looked around.

"Relax sweetie, my parents aren't hiding somewhere spying on us, they're not like that". She told him giggling.

"Oh, okay, I was…just checking." He said, he turned to face Flora again and gave her a gentle kiss on the lips.

Stella, Brandon, Layla, and Ophir

Planning the wedding was a whole lot more fun than Stella, Brandon, Layla, and Ophir thought it would be.

Stella and Layla decided that they would only do some of the planning like the decorating because they wanted the other girls to help plan their weddings as well. They were a team, and together the six of them would plan for the two girl's weddings, and maybe even Bloom's. Sky had been talking to Brandon. He was going to take Bloom on a special date and then propose to her. Brandon was happy for them; he always thought that Bloom and Sky would end up getting married, just like he was sure that he and Stella would also. Now they were at the mall, Stella was buying cloths for the summer and had brought Brandon along with her to give her an opinion on the cloths. So far, all the cloths she showed him looked very pretty. Now she was wearing a small yellow tang top and a short skirt, not too short.

"Brandon what do think of this one?" She asked him. Brandon mouth was open, Stella looked awesome.

"Stella…you look…beautiful", He said not being able to take his eyes off her.

"Really?" She asked him, she stepped out of the dressing booth and giving Brandon a big hug. Brandon wrapped his arms around her.

"How lucky am I to have the most gorgeous girlfriend in the world. Stella looked at him and smiled.

"I love you," She told him.

"I love you too," Brandon said.

At Bloom's House

"So Sky, Bloom tells me that you helped her on the journey to regain her dragonFire?" Mike said casually. Sky nervously cleared his throat.

"Okay, clear your throat, relax and answer his question politely and completely, Sky told himself.

"Well, I did help her some, but it was all mostly Bloom." He said smiling at her and quickly looking back at Mike. Bloom smiled at Sky, and he felt that he was doing pretty well so far. While Bloom's father was still nice, his voice became stern every now and then when he asked Sky a question.

" What sports do you like?" Mike asked. In his opinion, Sky seemed like a pretty respectful young man. Bloom had told them a lot about Sky, like the fact that he was a prince, that he drove a levabike, which he was told was somewhat like a motorcycle.

"Well, I ride a levabike, I like playing Volley Ball, and I'm quite a good swordsman, sir". He said.

"Really? That's really quite interesting, oh and don't call me sir, just Mike" Mike said smiling, he liked Sky all ready.

Bloom could tell that things were going pretty well, she knew her father would like Sky.
