Chapter 22: And Never Looking Back

"Bloom!" Sky yelled. He was dumbfounded. He didn't know what to do, what to say. The girl he loved was lying on the floor bleeding, unconscious, next to his ex fiancée who had nothing more but a few scars, scratches, and messy hair.

"Oh my!" Flora said, also shocked at the scene. Sky didn't hesitate. He ran into the room and took Bloom in his arms, while still kneeling on the floor.

Diaspro wasn't expecting this at all.

"Sky…I- I don't know what to say, it's not what it looks like!" Diaspro yelled in desperation. Flora ran into the bathroom to get some wet towels.

"No Diaspro, I think it's exactly what it looks like!" Sky yelled. He was beyond exasperated. Diaspro became a bit frightened. She, in all the time she knew and had been engaged to Sky, had never seen him this angry before.

"But Sky, you don't understand!" She yelled back. Sky, who had Bloom's head on his lap, was placing towels on her head, while Flora looked around the huge room shocked at the mess.

"Really? Then explain it to me! This isn't the first time you've done something like this Diaspro! How could you possibly explain it?" Sky said.

He truly did not understand. The only explanation that he could come up with was that Diaspro still hadn't managed to get over him. But why couldn't she try meeting new people? Why couldn't she just accept the fact that he and Bloom were in love? For a moment he felt bad for her, but just because he wasn't in a relationship with her anymore and she was upset about it, didn't give her the right to come all the way to magix and hurt his girlfriend.

"Well, I…oh Sky, I just wanted to see you, and she…" She was cut off.

"Enough Diaspro, look, the last time I saw you I asked you kindly to please leave Bloom alone. I asked you not to hurt her, and now this? Why are you doing this Diaspro, I don't under…" He didn't get to finish.

"Its not fair! It's just not fair! I'm beautiful, I also speak many languages, I'm very smart, and I'm rich like you. And I'm a princess! I don't get it! What is it? That you had to go and fall for some poor redheaded earth girl! She not nearly as rich as we are, and she's technically not a princess!"

"Diaspro, I don't think Sky cares about…" Flora attempted to say but was interrupted.

"I appreciate you trying to help, Flora, but I'd appreciate it even more if you didn't" Diaspro told her.

Flora didn't say anything else. She thought this was something between Sky and Diaspro, but she still didn't think it a good idea to leave the room. Sky was very angry, and she understood him. It was like his ex fiancée just didn't get the message.

Bloom was still on Sky's lap. The blood had stopped but she was still unconscious. Flora was beginning to worry.

"Look Diaspro", Sky said. He was pretty tired from all the yelling. He was also tired from the entire sword fighting practice that afternoon at redfountain.

"You should go," He told her.

"But Sky…" She was about to say.

"No Diaspro, look, I'm not sure what you intended to get out of this, or what your motives were…but I'm going to ask you- again- not to hurt her. And just so you know, Bloom is a princess, sure her planet is frozen but she still comes from a royal family. And I don't care if she isn't rich, I love her, and I'm sorry if it hurts you to hear this, but it's the truth. I think she's a beautiful person both on the inside and out, and I love her. Please Diaspro understand that." He finished saying.

"You are making a mistake, Sky," She said not taking her eyes off the unconscious Bloom.

"I'm sure you'll meet someone, you said yourself you were beautiful and so on, you can meet someone else." He told her. "Good bye Diaspro"

Diaspro looked at him, "goodbye" she got up and without another word and walked out. Flora stood there.

"I can't believe this is happening" She said, she looked as though she were going to cry. Seeing Bloom like this tore her heart, and Sky wasn't feeling any better.

Sky picked Bloom up and put her on her bed. Flora went to get Bloom a cup of water. While Sky stayed with Bloom in her room. He took her shoes off and put a blanket over her. He fixed her pillows and sat at the edge of her bed.

I can't believe Diaspro would ever do such a thing! She says she loves me, but if she really did love me she would respect my decision and just accept the fact that I'm happy with Bloom. I love her so much. And I promise that I will never let anyone or anything hurt her again. Sky thought to himself.

Bloom groaned.

"Bloom?" Sky said, he got up and sat next to her.

Bloom put a hand on her head, which had a bandage on it.

"What is this?" She asked, she tried to get up, but was too dizzy so Sky helped her lie back down.

"You hurt your head Flora put a bandage on it, Bloom, do you remember what happened?" Sky asked in a casual tone of voice.

Bloom remembered fighting with Diaspro, but not hitting her head.

"Sort of…not all of it," Bloom said looking a bit dazed.

"Bloom I'm so sorry, if I had known Diaspro was coming here to hurt you… I would …"

Bloom cut him off.

"Its okay Sky, its not your fault, like you said, if you had known, but you didn't. But thank you, for being here with me". Bloom told him putting her hand on his cheek affectionately.

Sky looked at her lovingly. His ex fiancée had come all this way just to fight her, and yet she didn't even blame him when he blamed himself. Was she the greatest person he'd ever met or what?

Flora walked in with a cup of tea for Bloom to drink.

"Are you feeling better sweetie?" Flora asked her, putting a hand on her forehead. Bloom had gotten a small fever after being hit on the head, but it would go away very soon.

"Yes, I'm feeling a bit better, but I'm still feeling very tired and dizzy" Bloom told her.

"Well, I'm sure this tea will make you feel batter", Flora told her. Although she was smiling, she was still a bit worried over Bloom, for if she or Sky had not come on time, Diaspro could have done something worse. When they got there Bloom was already in the floor unconscious. Flora didn't want to imagine what else could have happened. She was just glad to see that Bloom was feeling better.

"Hey Flora that reminds me, has Helia spoken to you yet?" Sky asked her.

"Yes, we talked yesterday, he said he wanted to take me somewhere special tomorrow but it's a surprise" Flora said, then she asked, "Why did you ask Sky?"

Sky smiled, "oh…I don't know, but wherever he's taking you, I'm sure your going to love it" Sky told her. Then he turned and winked at Bloom who smiled at him.

Flora blushed and said, "Oh I'm sure I will" She smiled. She couldn't possibly imagine where Helia was taking her. He hadn't said much, all he said was that it was a beautiful yet magical place to be, and that she would love it. All her past dates with Helia had been wonderful; but Helia said that this date would out beat all the others.

"I have to go water my plants, so I'll leave you two alone" Flora said, as she walked out of the room.

" I can't believe it, this room is a mess!" Bloom said, looking around the room for the first time since she had awoken.

"Yea, but it doesn't look so bad, if you want I could help you fix it." Sky offered.

"That's really sweet of you Sky" Bloom said. After another half hour of talking, Sky picked up the closet, and drawers that had been knocked over. Bloom would pick the clothes up later.

After a while Sky had to leave. He kissed Bloom goodbye and went back to redfountain, by the time he left, it had been about 7:30 pm. Bloom was still pretty tired, so she picked up the clothes, put them each in their place and went back to sleep.

"Hey bro, what took you so long? Everything alright with Bloom?" Brandon asked as Sky walked into their dorm room.

"No, I was right, she was in trouble." Sky told Brandon.

"Let me guess, the witches of cloud tower attacked alfea again? Those witches are always causing trouble, its ridiculous". Brandon said shaking his head.

"No, it was Diaspro, again. She went to alfea and attacked Bloom. After a specifically asked her not to go near Bloom at the diner, remember?" Sky said.

"Yea I remember, man, I just cant believe Diaspro could be so persistent. So what did you do?" Brandon asked him.

"I lost my temper, just the sight of Bloom lying on the floor unconscious like that made me feel terrible. I even yelled a bit. I hope this time she really gets it. I don't want anything else to happen to Bloom. I love her". Sky said.

"Well, I'm really happy for you Sky," Brandon told him as he got into bed and pulled the covers over him.

"I think we're having a test tomorrow, so we should get some rest, goodnight Sky", Brandon said.

"Goodnight" said Sky.

After a few minutes, he changed into his nightclothes, got into bed and pulled his covers over himself, and drifted off to sleep thinking about the next day, and Bloom.

Stella came back from solaria at 8 am the next morning, she knew that Brandon didn't have to go to class until 10 am so she decided to stop by redfountain and see him.

When she arrived, Sky opened the door.

"Hey Stella"

"Oh hey Sky, is up already?" Stella asked him.

"Yea, surprisingly he got up early this morning, do you want to come in?" He asked.

"Of course" She said. And sure enough Brandon was up, he was sitting on his bed cleaning one of his swords.

"Hey Brandon," Stella said, bashing her eyelashes at him.

"Hey cupcake," He said looking up at her.

"So how did it go with your mom?" He asked. Stella sighed. Brandon looked at her hoping for a positive answer.

"It went well, I told her that my intention wasn't to hurt her, but that I felt that my father needed me more, but I would spend a lot of time with her every now and then too you know," Stella told him. Brandon put his sword down and pulled Stella closer to him.

"I'm glad it worked out between your you and your mom, which reminds me, would you like to go on a date with me tonight?" Brandon asked her.

"Oh of course, I'd love to shnookums!" She said, Brandon laughed and she took his face and kissed him on the cheek.

After a while, Stella said goodbye to Brandon, and headed back to alfea, she also had classes, which didn't start until 11am.
