Butterfly Chapter 11
I am soooooo sorry for the late update! I feel terrible!
(Blossom's P.O.V.)
"COME ON BRICK!" I tugged and tugged but I just couldn't get Brick to move! I really wanted to ride the Ferris wheel with him and he was being stubborn.
"I don't want to ride it. It's a sissy ride." he growled. I raised my right eyebrow at him and placed my hands on my hips. He sighed before pulling me close and mumbling an apology.
"I didn't mean to snarl at you, Bloss. Please, can't we just go do another ride?" he pouted at me, and I honestly almost gave in. But no, I was too stubborn. I paused a second before I turned to him, and we both glared at each other. We were officially at war. Minutes passed, and I definitely noticed the line getting longer and longer. I was really starting to panic, but I did my best not to let it show on my face.
Brick's searing gaze didn't weaken in the slightest, so I was going to go with a new strategy. I looked away for a moment, and just as I suspected, Brick smirked, thinking he won. But suddenly I turned back to him, and he stepped back out of surprise when he saw me pouting and sniffling. My eyes were looking at the ground, but anyone could still see they were glassy and tears were welling up.
"I really wanted to go on with you Brick" I sniffled and I felt a bit guilty when I saw his expression. Brick looked as though I had tore his heart out and smashed it. But nope, I wouldn't give up, not this time.
"Oh please don't cry Baby Gir-Blossom! I'll go on the ride with you." He pleaded with me, but the moment he almost called me 'Baby Girl' I stopped in my act and my eyes widened just a bit. His southern accent had come through so strongly! I mean, I had heard it before, I even remember hearing it slip through Butch and Boomer's speech a lot of times, but Brick hates when it comes out. I was suddenly so curious in the new subject I didn't care about the Ferris Wheel Brick was now leading me too.
"Why don't you like your accent?" I unconsciously asked as we threaded through the long line, everyone going to the side for a Rowdyruff. Brick stiffened, but shrugged all the same.
He climbed into the seat, grabbing my hand to help me climb in as well, while the director closed the door ,making sure it was secure. I leaned against Brick's side as he wrapped his arm around me and looked out the window as we started to lift high up. I decided to try again, "Brick, why do you refuse to let your accent come through?" I whispered, I knew I was playing Russian Roulette with his temper. This time I was safe.
"I guess its just uneasy for me to let my past through still. The only times I can't control it is when too much emotion hits me. I'm definitely the one whose least closes' to Mama, but that doesn't say a lot. Boom likes to spend every moment with her, while Butch just does anything her little ole' heart desires, and me? I like to spend nights askin' her questions bout our ole' life with her and Papa." he told me, finally speaking naturally for the first time. He looked so relieved to just speak without having to remember to pronounce words so precisely that I smiled up at him.
"But I also don't speak with it since I think I sound like a dope." he looked sheepish as he rubbed the back of his neck. Boy was I shocked that he would think that! I leaned really close to his face, so close that I could feel his breath against my lips, and scarlet stained our cheeks.
"I don't think you sound like a dope." He breathed in deeply, in much of a daze as I was in, and we both began to lean forward…
"Briiiick!" a VERY whiny and annoying voice screeched out of no where. The Ferris Wheel stopped abruptly.
We both turned in dismay to find the one person I would have liked to burn into ashes, throwing a fit outside of our little cart…in the air.
Yup. Princess with a jet pack on.
"What the hell are you doing, Princess! Get back on the damn ground!" Brick was literally seething! I was scarily calm. I was counting in my head, that way, when I rip Princess's throat out for ruining Brick and I's moment, I can honestly say she could have escaped.
5.…..
"Sorry Brickie, but its just that I really wanted to tell you that,"
4.….
", I got my Daddy to get me this jet pack AND pay a couple of nerd professors to invent some chemical thingy that,"
3.…
", allows me to have powers just like you! It lasts a couple of hours or something like that,"
2...
", and I was thinking that since now I'm like totally your equal and stuff that,"
1..
" , you could dump Carrot head and go out with me!"
0.
In less than a second I had tore open the metal opening and launched myself at the whore in the Sexy Devil costume. Princess definitely wasn't expecting it, so she screamed and tried to fly away, but her little jet pack had nothing on my powers. I grabbed her by her hair and pulled for her to stop, my hands were in circled by a neon pink glow, and my eyes were nothing but that same neon pink glow. As I punched and clawed at Princess, I could only think of her screeching for Brick to break up with me, and the fact that she was screaming for him at this moment didn't help me calm down.
I punched her nose,making her squeal for me to stop. But my anger was still fresh and alive. I yanked at her hair again, and tore her left sleeve, making her shriek and curse at me. I kicked her right in the mouth, desperately hoping it would somehow drop off her face and never let her utter another sound again! To my disappointment that didn't happen, but her lip did swell up a bit, making her face look funny.
After I purposefully broke one of the twit's manicured nails, something snapped I guess. There was suddenly a bright yellow light, and I was thrown back a few feet. Princess's hair had snapped out of her two pig tails, and the snake like strands were outlined in neon yellow, so were hands and eyes. I only took a moment to realize my hair was out of my ponytail and my beloved bow was gone! It was also outlined in neon pink. I stared at her, she seemed to be glaring at me with this selfish rage, and my glow spiked a bit.
I charged towards her yellow glow, my hands throwing balls of pink energy at her all the while. She only dodged two out of the 13 I sent at her, so her glow went down a few shades, showing that she was starting to weaken. Just as I reached her though, I smashed into a very strong and hard body. My face was crushed against red fabric, but my glow slowly went away as Brick's familiar scent comforted me. As the rage left my body I looked up, Brick had his face buried into my long, now knotted, red hair. My arms achingly hugged him back, my whole body was starting to shut down, and I was just so exhausted all of a sudden.
"I'm so sorry Brick" I whispered, my eyes drooping as he lifted my legs up, carrying me bridle style, since I pretty much couldn't move.
"I should be the one apologizing, Baby Girl" he whispered back at me, a small smile on his face. I nodded sleepily, and yawned. I snuggled into his warm chest, barely remembering to ask about Princess.
"Don't know, don't care."
"That's what I like to hear" I murmured as I fell into a sweet, sweet dream.
(Brick's P.O.V.)
Oh, no! Blossom had gone after Princess, and I was desperately trying to search for them. At first it had taken me a couple of seconds to register what had happened, and by then they were already out of sight. After a couple of minutes of aimless searching, I gave up on trying to find them and instead went to search for the Blues. The Greens would only want to beat the crap out of Princess, at least the Blues would be a bit more helpful.
I spotted them walking together, hand in hand, buying some cotton candy. They were laughing as they shoved the blue stuff into each others mouths, and I knew Boomer will kill me later for interrupting them. Whatever, Red was more important.
I swooped down to them and landed soundly on the grass. "Brick?" said Lil Bubbs as she peeked over Boomie's shoulder to look at me. Boomer turned around, and I completely ignored the angry glare he threw towards me.
"I need help. Blossoms in trouble" I stated. They glanced at each other, and then nodded toward me. I nodded back, and started to tell them all about how Princess had come and destroyed my time with Bloss, and how she had gotten into a fight with her.
Soon enough we all agreed to go looking for them, and when we found them, I would calm down my Baby Gir-Blossom and they would go after Princess. We shot off into the sky and quickly found the two making a huge scene! And to all of our surprises, Princess looked almost just as fierce as Bloss, with her bright, BRIGHT neon yello glow. But we all knew Blossom would have no trouble shredding her to pieces if we let her, and I wouldn't let her. I tapped Boomer's shoulder to let him know to go get Princess now, and he took Bubbles with him.
I could see Red launch herself at Princess, and I strained myself to jump in front of her in time, but I did it. I was definitely in pain as Red collided into me, but I didn't let hermove me an inch. I wanted to groan and double over, considering the fact that Blossom had been at her fullout max level of dangerous, you can imagine what kind of pain I was in. She clutched me as I did to her. I muffled my cries by shoving my face into her hair and breathing deeply and slowly.
"I'm so sorry Brick"
Why was she sorry? I was the one who had been stupid enough to let her get into that stupid fight with Princess and make her reach her max level! I've been at my max a couple of times, I knew how exhausted she must feel, how sore she'll be later! Ugh! I was the worst boyfriend ever! I will give her anything to justify myself.
I noticed how her legs were giving out and picked her up into my arms, where I wish she could always be.
"I'm the one who should be apologizing, Baby Girl" She nodded and yawned against me as she snuggled deeper into my embrace. "What about Princess?"
I answered as simple and truthful as I could.
"Don't know, don't care." I could feel her smile as she rested her head on my shoulder. I was gently flying down to the Blues, who (I'm guessing) were explaining what happened to the Greens.
"That's what I like to hear"
Again I am incredibly sorry for the late update! I got a new laptop for Christmas and felt too lazy too switch back to my old computer and type up a chapter. But my guilt overpowered me! Ya, and on another note, I know a lot of you are for different pairings, and I personally am a ButtercupxButch lover, but I'm really trying my hardest to give all the couples equal attention! So please know that I'm trying to get in more BlossomxBrick, ButchxButtercup, and BubblesxBoomer! I'M ONLY ONE PERSON! Lol sorry,had a little meltdown! Anyways, PLEASE REVIEW!
