BRICK POV

It has been two weeks since I heard from Blossom. I called, texted, went to her school, I even tried to get ahold of that Deuce guy. I asked Bubbles when she came over for dinner with Boomer, she said Blossom was busy and I guessed with avoiding me. Butch convinced Buttercup to trust him and if it was just a bet he wouldn't have broken it up with Itzel, so they are like a couple just like Bubbles and Boomer. I have never wanted to see a person as much I want to see Blossom. I actually started to feel something for her, I completely forgot about the bet. "Brick? Brick did you hear me?" I looked up. "The girls are having a party, and Bubbles and Buttercup you are invited. Blossom will be there, and she won't leave because it's something big for Buttercup" Butch said looking at me from across the table. I nod and throw and drop my grape on the plate. "If she wanted to talk to me, she would have by now Butch." I said. He shrugged, obviously things worked out for Butch and Boomer, why couldn't they work out for me? "Butch, I'm going to walk home, I need to clear my head" I say standing up and putting my plate into the sink. "Okay, are you still coming to dinner with Boomer and me?" he asked. "Are the girls going?" I said picking my hat up from the table and putting it on. "Yeah." He said. "Then, no." I left his condo and started walking home. I sighed and I took the long, long way. Well it's actually just pass Blossoms house and then home. When I got to Blossom's street I saw her running. I pull my cap down to cover my eyes, hoping she doesn't notice me. She looked at me, and I sighed and lifted my hat back up. "Hey, Blossom." I said.

"Hey…."She says looking around.

"So how are you?"

"I'm good, are you going with someone to Buttercups party?" She looked at me to see what I would say.

"Yeah, are you?" I asked.

"Nope," she looked down and shook her head. "I'm actually not going."

"You have to go!"

"Why? So I can see you with your pretty date? Why do you keep trying to hurt-" I cut her off. "You have to go because you're my date" I said with a smile. She looked at me to see if I was serious. "Brick, why are you doing this?"

"Because, I can't eat sleep or drink, because you're the only thing on my mind! I was going to call off the bet!"

"You said that in the calls, give me time. You think I didn't have a great time with you? The cooking, the sweets, the teasing, and the kissing: it was amazing! I loved being with you and it felt so simple with you, and then you made me question it and I wanted to call you and talk to you, and kiss you but, I'm scared and I don't want to be hurt, least of all by you…." She said looking down. I walked over to her and put my hands on her hips. She was a little sweaty because she was running but I didn't care. "Blossom, I will not hurt you, I will love and cherish you more than anyone else and that's a promise" she looked at me with the big eyes I missed so much and she nodded. "Fine, just one more thing" she said stepping back. "What's that?" I replied. "I bet you that you are already in love with me" she said and tilted her head because I pulled my cap down. "I don't fall in love Blossom" I said looking down. "Keep saying that to yourself, until you admit it, we will be nothing but friends, with benefits" I look up. "That means, I will not stay the night and I will do what I want to do, no jealousy if we are with other people, okay?" she asked looking at me. I was not okay, but I don't fall in love, that is just how I do things. "Fine" was all I could say, and this was not fine… She smirked I looked at her and smiled I leaned into kiss her and she stepped back. "It's November and I'm cold since you are outside my house, why don't you come inside?" I just nodded and followed her up her drive way.

BUBBLES POV

I was taking a nap and woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. "Hello?" I said into the phone sounding groggy. "Hey sleepy head, what are you doing?" I smile at the voice. "Getting a wonderful wakeup call" he laughs. "I'm glad, are you coming over tonight for a movie and order some sushi?" I smile, every night since last week we have been hanging out and this is the first time I'll go over to his house. "Yes I am coming over that seems like a pleasing offer" he smiled. "I'll text you the address, Bye Bubbles."

"Bye Boomer" I say and hang up the phone. I like Boomer, he's really sweet, but since the night he told me about the bet, the intimacy was at an all-time low. No holding hands or hugging, or kissing. It sucked, I know he is old fashioned but this was a little overboard. I want to kiss and cuddle, I just don't know if Boomer wants the same thing.

BUTTERCUP POV

Butch and I Butch have had a different relationship since high school. Unlike my sisters I wasn't chubby or nerdy or shy. I was good with everybody I just chose my sisters over everyone. That's why I was not always with the cool kids or anything. That never mattered to me until me a butch started seeing each other freshman year. It was strange when I was with him it just felt so real. I was pretty I guess you could say, my hair was short, to my shoulders and black, I was pale and I had green eyes. When I met Butch he took a picture of me coming downstairs. It was a little longer than it is now, but he still looks very attractive either way and I was drawn to him. Unfortunately I didn't want my sisters to know I was dating or fraternizing with one of the Rowdy Ruff Boys. Bit it always felt so right with him and it was crazy. When I found out he was still dating Itzel, I tried to stop seeing him but most of the time he crept back into my heart. It was like we were magnets and the feeling when we were with each other and was one of the best feelings I had during high school. When we fought it was one of those good fights where afterwards you felt refreshed and better because you got all those things off your chest. Now when I'm with Butch he calls me his and wraps me in his arms and holds me close and he kisses my nose and we just lay together and it's what most girls dream of. I love when I'm with him, even though he is an ass hole. That's just Butch. We spend most of the time in my studio, because it's small and cozy and, Itzel is always at his condo. Not because they are together but because she wants him back. "Babe, Boomer and Bubbles bailed so it's just us tonight" he says with a smile. "So what do you want to?" I say looking at him. He smiles and kisses me. "You know what I want to do" he smiles and kisses me again. "Mmmm I like that idea" I say kissing him and he slowly pulls me to the bed room.
