Brick's POV
I was so relieved! I couldn't believe my brother's where okay with me racing. Blossom had slammed her car door shut and revved her engine, I grinned and jumped into my car starting the engine so it was in tune with Blossoms. I looked out of the rear-view mirror and watched as Boomer got into the passenger seat of Bubbles Honda NSX, he had a blissful smile on his face. Looks like my brother is starting to like a certain Ms. Utonium. My eyes shift to see Butch have a slight twitch, my grin widened Butch only has his twitch when his adrenaline is pumping! He jumps into his car and starts the engine immediately and Buttercup copies him.
I reverse out (as does everyone else) and we position our selves so we can see inside everyone's windscreen. Blossom's window goes down and I can faintly hear music pulsing from the car. She hangs her arm out of the window and holds three fingers up. Then two. I grip the wheel tighter. Then one. My foot is itching towards the gas and I see Butch practically jumping in his seat. She drops her arm and the sound of tiers screeching floods the air. Blossom spins her car around and was out of the parking lot, Buttercup was quick to follow. I didn't waste any time and I was out straight after Buttercup, I looked behind me to see Butch, and behind him Bubbles and Boomer. However Bubble's car turned off to the right and my eyes kept flicking from Buttercups car in front of me to the rear-veiw mirror. Where did she go? Well she wasn't really racing anyway. Maybe she might have nipped home for something?
With that thought I floored the gas and I shot forward, however my car just wasn't fast enough to catch up with Buttercups Mclaren MP4-12C never mind overtake. I groaned in frustration when I then saw the nose of Butch's car sneak up the side of me. The roads where surprisingly quiete, barely a car on the road, as Butch pushed in front of me.
"Shit!" I hissed, I couldn't come last! Blossom would think... well I don't even want to contemplate what she would think! Then it hit me. Josh had installed some NOS onto my car as a favour. I smirked menacingly my competitive streak kicking in. I hit the gas and pushed the car as fast as it would go, coming close to the back end of Butch's car who was struggling to get around Buttercup. I caught a glimpse past him and saw Blossom had a comfortable lead. We all turned off onto a secluded wooded road. Trees littered the side of me as I worked the steering wheel on the twisting roads.
Ahead a long straight was coming up and I saw my opportunity, as the road levelled out I pulled to the right side of both Butch and Buttercups car and hung back a bit, when I felt I was at a comfortable distance I pressed the red NOS button on the steering wheel. The force knocked me back into the seat.
"WHOOOOOO!" I yelled in excitement, Butch and Buttercups cars went past in a blur and I was focused on the beautiful red Audi R8 that I was quickly approaching. I caught up to Blossom's level and looked through her window, her pink eyes widened and she look very familiar, like I have known or seen her somewhere before I moved here. I was brought out of my thoughts when Blossom got ahead of me slightly but I quickly made up the distant so the nose of my car was in front of hers. I saw the clearing where I assume Blossom was referring too, I smirked already very sure of my victory when a blue rectangular metal object sat proudly in the middle. As we raced closer I saw two blonde's leaning against the car. No fucking way.
Normal POV
When Brick arrived he slammed on the breaks causing the car to skid slightly and stop at the side of Boomer and Bubbles. He got out and watched as Blossom got out of her car too, she looked slightly annoyed but amused at the same time.
"How-? When-? Where-?" Brick asked too many questions at the same time.
"Short cut" was all Bubbles said giggling, made sense now, to where she turned off back at school. Suddenly two sets of tires locking on the breaks caused the group to turn around as Butch and Buttercups cars halted on the mud. Butch got out staring at Boomer and Bubbles, Buttercup doing the same.
"How the fuck did you beat us?" Butch asked his voice raising in pitch.
"Short cut" Boomer said repeating Bubbles a smug look on his face. Brick's pride and ego where wounded so he would have loved to have punched him, but he restrained himself.
"Anyway, what I wanted to know was how do you guys feel about going to a party tonight?" Blossom asked, authority dripping from her words. The commanding tone un nerved Brick slightly and made him feel out of place, he usually was in charge of any situation. He was always in control.
"PARTY?" Butch's eyes widened and a grin spread across his face, he was bouncy slightly in excitement. The boys hadn't been to a party in years. Boomer just looked pleased.
"It's a new club that's opening on St. MarJay's street... we have been... invited to go. Tonight." Blossom said she seemed to stumble over the word 'invite' I would have used the word forced or ordered Brick thought, clearly she was hiding something.
"Tonight?" Both Boomer and Butch yelled, Butch in a more exciting way while Boomer was more surprised. Brick remained emotionless, leaning back against his car with his arms folded and his eyes never leaving Blossom's face.
"However..." Buttercup said, Brick's eyes flicked to her but then back to Blossom who shuffled uncomfortably for a split second.
"We where wondering if you boys would like to join our race team?" Buttercup asked. Brick snapped my head round. No way. No fucking way. I would not allow them both racing, it's not going to happen- Brick thought before he was brought back to reality.
"I'm in!" Butch yells, sticking his hand up for some strange reason.
"-Hold up-" Brick cut in.
"-Me too-"
Brick spun his head to look at Boomer, his arms dropping to his side and his mouth hitting the floor.
"No fucking way are either of you racing!" Brick shouts, Boomer looks confused and Butch looks slightly pissed off.
"Why the hell not?" Butch cries
"Because me made a deal-"
"-Which you already broke-"
"-Boomer that's not the point-"
"-I don't give a shit I'm in-"
"-No Butch-"
"-Fuck you!-"
"-Fuck you!-"
"SHUT IT!"
Brick's POV
I hadn't realised I had walked right up to Butch's face, my red eyes where blazing and I was breathing heavily. I slowly turned around to look at Blossom, she looked livid. She stomped over and pulled me back by my jacket and stood between us. I was shifting my eyes between Boomer and Butch.
"Brick, you have been racing! So they can too so get off your high fucking horse!" She barks at me. My eyes narrow dangerously. I was not liking her authority at all. Without a word I spin on my heel and yanked my car door open. I started the engine in an instant and speed off. I needed to calm down or I would end up doing something I regret, instead of turning off into the city I take a different route that takes me further up the hill. The tree's thickened at either side of me as the road became narrow. 20 minuets later I came to another clearing, I hit the brakes and jumped out turning the engine off. I went to the edge of a sheer drop and looked out over the trees and city in front of me. I never knew this place was hear but it seems good for thinking.
I sit down and dangle my legs over the end, I close my eyes and try to calm myself down. They can't race, but I guess we should move on from the past but... Gah! It could happen again! What if one of them dies this time! Great I've just totally convinced myself into not letting them race. It's final.
"Hey"
My heart jumps out of my chest as my whole body jolted. I grabbed into the ground to stop myself from falling over the edge. I turned to see Blossom stood there with her hands stuffed into her leather jacket, she was wearing black skinnies with knee high white boots she had a light pink top on and her hair was down. I didn't greet her back and turned around again.
"You know your going to fucking kill me one day" I said in a monotone voice. I heard her sigh and she sits at the side of me her legs over the end too.
"Look Brick, do you realise that you are overreacting don't you?" She said trying to look me in the eyes.
"You don't understand, so don't start."
"About Boomer's accident? Try me" She says easily.
My eyes widened and my heart skipped a beat I looked at her and she was staring right back at me, her beautiful pink eyes full of understanding. Maybe my brothers have told her?
"What?" I blurt out, she sighs and closed her eyes then looking out over the landscape.
"3 years ago, me and my sisters where at a race. I had just set up DLR so there was me, my sisters, Jade, Josh and Aidan-"
"Hold up! Aidan from the underground?" I say, Blossom nods her head.
"Yes you see Jade, kind of had a thing for him back then and he knew it. But anyway I wanted to ask your brothers and yourself if you wanted to join teams, but as I was watching you race Tony and I saw him shoot at your car. I'm not going to lie I thought your where quite attractive back then so I was worried when you began to loose control. You swerved the car and you came flying towards-"
"-You." I connected the dots before she finished. I knew she looked familiar and I was glad I knew why, Blossom made a slight smile and continued.
"Yes, I was frozen in fright but you turned out of the way. After... what happened next" I don't think she wanted to mention when I hit my brother and I was grateful she didn't. "I ran up to where you all where but they wouldn't let me near, I was forced away so I decided we all went back up home. That's when I saw Aidan speaking with Tony" Blossom's voice grew softer and I was absorbed in her story.
"I told Aidan we where leaving but he ignored me. I was furious he was speaking with him so I pulled his arm, however he turn and smacked me in jaw the impact sent me to the ground." I grinded my teeth and my fist instinctively bald into fists. Next time I saw that little piece of shit he was done for!
"Tony and his crew where laughing, while the others helped me up. Jade was livid and marched straight up to Aidan, Aidan looked murderous and told her we where going to race before we left. We argued but he wasn't taking no for an answer, in the end I ended up in a car ready to race Tony. I pulled the window down and asked what we where racing for, Aidan then grabbed Jade tight and said 'Her' my eyes widened but just before I refused and claxon sounded, the sudden noise made me jump and my foot hit the gas. I didn't have a choice then so I raced Tony."
I watched as tears began to well up in her eyes, I shift closer my face soft and my previous problems forgotten. Blossom was telling me something that had deeply hurt her and I wasn't about to act like a prick now. She took a shaky breath and carried on.
"In the last straight I had a comfortable lead when I heard a gun shot and just like you I turned to look at Tony, however he hadn't moved an inch but was smirking with malice. My head was looking all around me when I heard the shot again. My car jerked as the front tire blew out I looked through my eyes and saw no other than Aidan stood at the finishing line with a smoking gun in his hand. I quickly floored the breaks and stopped as Tony flew past me and over the finishing line. I got out but Tony's crew where already taking Jade away. Buttercup was screaming and thrashing out as Bubbles tried to hold her in place. I marched straight up to Aidan and punched him in the face before Josh grabbed a hold of me. Aidan then told us he had made a deal with Tony and was leaving the team. He walked away and grabbed Jade that's when I- I-"
Blossom's words where choked on her sobs as tears flew down her face.
"You don't have to tell me" I said putting a comforting arm round her, my voice layered with sorrow. She shook her head furiously.
"No I have to tell you" I nodded and she tried to compose herself.
"I broke from Josh and ran to Jade and Aidan, however Aidan must have heard me coming and spun round grabbing Jade by her hair and exposing her neck. In one fluid movement his hand flew down her neck to her chest and a bright blood red line was produced. Jade screamed as blood gushed thick and fast from her body. I froze frightened while Jade begged for help. Aidan had a blade in his hand and was smirking he asked me if I still wanted her even when she's dead, Josh then came and punched him and grabbed Jade. Aidan cursed at us and got into a car with Tony. Jade was unconscious and was taken to hospital-"
Blossom had tears pouring out of her eyes but she never sobbed, her silent tears seemed to make the whole story more painful. But she wasn't finished yet.
"A few weeks later Aidan had started his own teams back up home. Jade was better but she will forever have a scar. She can't believe Aidan did that and her feelings for him didn't change much, she tried to forgive him but she couldn't but she says she will never hate him. I -just like you- tried to force her not to race again but she was having none of it. She told me 'If I don't race it means he's won I'm not about to let that happen, it's the only way I can move on'. So I let her race and she's never been happier."
Normal POV
Blossom finished her story and her tears have cleared up. It's now dark and it was hard to see each other so Brick had a squint slightly until his eyes adjusted. Brick was close to her body his arms was still wrapped around her. Brick closed his eyes and sigh. She was totally right.
"Your right"
Blossom turned to look at him lifting an eyebrow. Brick turned to face her.
"I can't force them not to do something they clearly love, they can never move on unless they do" Brick says
"Neither can you" Blossom says nudging Brick and smile now playing on her lips.
"Yeah yeah" he mutters shoving her back. She giggles and Brick grins suddenly remebering something, he leans back on his arms.
"So in that little story of yours..." Brick says a smirk playing on his lips, Blossom looks at him in a questioning manner.
"You said back then you thought I was quite 'attractive'? How have the years treated me now Bloss?" Brick smirks, Blossom's eyes widen. She hadn't counted on him picking up on that particular part of the story as well. Blossom was thankful of the darkness so he couldn't see the tiny patches of pink scattering her cheeks. She clears her throat and turns back into her cool facade.
"I think that's why it took me so long to realise you, a bit disappointing really" Brick's jaw drops and his heart slightly drops. Eh what? he questions his feeling but shakes them off.
"Excuse me! But it don't come better than this right hear!" Brick says cockily pointing to his body, Blossom rolls her eyes and pushes him slightly before leaning over him her face dangerously close to his.
"Hmm I better lower my standards then" She says in a low and husky voice, she grins before getting up and getting in her car. Brick still trying to process her words so was delayed a few minuets. Wait does that mean she likes-
"Come on Red your not beating me on the way down!" Blossom yells from her car. Brick stands up and shrugs the dirt from him. He would think about her words later. He smirks as he gets into his car and starts the engine.
"Ready?" Blossom asks.
"Ready" Brick counters.
"Go."
Aww little heart to heart there, becuase there both the oldest so there always under pressure! AWW! XD
