Butterflies

Months have passed and the same routine was done. Quaxo would wake up early in the morning, find Victoria, go to their 'secret place' and do magic. Quaxo's feelings for Tugger grew as Tugger's feelings for Quaxo started.

Quaxo woke up one morning at a sight of Tugger on top of him. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Quaxo shouted as he pushed Tugger off of him. "So?" Quaxo asked. "What were you doing on top of me?"

"I-I-I s-s-saw a b-b-bug. I-I-I w-w-was g-g-gonna g-get i-it." Tugger stuttered. Quaxo narrowed his eyes (but his heart was beating like 'whoa') and headed to the open space and found Victoria and the others playing. "Victoria!" Quaxo shouted.

Tugger sighed. Why? Why do I get butterflies when ever he's around? Why do I feel like I have to be with him every second of the day? Tugger sighed once more. I need Bombalurina's advice.

"Quaxo! What's up?" Victoria asked.

"I'M FREAKING OUT VICTORIA! FREAKING OUT!" Quaxo shouted.

"Why? What happened?" Victoria smirked. Quaxo narrowed his eyes and pulled Victoria out of the clear and into their 'secret place'.

"When I woke up I saw Tugger, on top of me." Victoria laughed.

"Omigod!" Victoria giggled. "I bet someone had the butterflies this morning."

"Shutup." Quaxo blushed.

"Ooooooh. Somebody's blushing." Victoria teased. Quaxo blushed even more. Victoria gigged.

Bombalurina was in her den brushing her fur when Tugger burst in screaming, "BOMBA! You have to help me."

"Why? What's wrong now?" Bombalurina asked.

"I've been feeling things. Weird things." Tugger said. "Help me." He mouthed.

"What kind of feelings? I'm not a magician you know. I don't sparkle." Tugger's body tensed. SPARKLE. Tugger thought.

"Tugger? You okay?" Bombalurina asked.

"Uh… I got to go. Thanks! You're of great help." Tugger ran out of the den. I have to find Quaxo.

"Uh. You're welcome?" Bombelurina said, confused.

"Quaxo!" Tugger shouted once he found Quaxo with Victoria by Old Deuteronomy's tire. Victoria and Quaxo saw Tugger running toward them. Oh no! Quaxo thought as he pulled Victoria and they both ran toward their 'secret place'. Tugger followed.

"Okay. I'm gonna kiss you" Quaxo said. Victoria's eyes widened. "Is it okay?" Quaxo asked.

"Uh-uh-uh. W-why?"

"Just so we could lose Tugger. Please." Victoria nodded. Quaxo leaned in and their lips touched.

Tugger was hiding behind the pile of old appliances, tears in his eyes. I can't believe it. They're faking it! Tugger ran straight to his den, ignoring the queens that tried to flirt with him. Once he was back in his den, he looked at the mirror he found 2 years ago. "They were faking. They can't kiss each other. They're best friends and Victoria doesn't like Quaxo. Does she?" Tugger sobbed once more. "Why am I crying? I mean, I don't love him like that. Do I? Do I love him?"

Quaxo and Victoria's lips parted once they heard footstep descending. Victoria's lips grew into a smile once she saw Quaxo smiling too. "Wow." Victoria gulped. Quaxo nodded.

"That that was nice." Quaxo exhaled. Victoria giggled. She always liked Quaxo ever since. She felt fireworks when they were kissing, but Quaxo doesn't feel the same way. He only saw her as a friend. A best friend. She was okay with that. Quaxo chuckled. Quaxo liked Victoria since he first saw her, but Tugger was just so… nice that he… changed his mind.

Quaxo went back to Tugger's den and found Tugger sleeping. Tugger's sleeping. That's unusual. Quaxo thought. What he didn't know that Tugger was just pretending. He was still wide awake. "Oh Tugger, if you only knew." Quaxo sighed as he kissed Tugger's forehead and headed to bed. Tugger heard what Quaxo said and felt hope.
