Author's Note:

Hey guys, I'm sorry this chapter is posted later than I expected it to be posted. I've been busy with things(playing Paper Mario: Sticker Star) and I haven't had the time. I'm going to try even harder to get these chapters online soon. Oh, and if you see that two sentences are often in the same line, I have no idea how that happens. The document is fine, but for some reason when I post the chapter online, it clumps two sentences up and makes it look that way. I am sorry about that. I have also found a couple small mistakes within this Fanfiction and I will try and proofread them better from now on. So doing things such as proofreading will delay the release of a chapter. And I'm currently in a writer's block, and that doesn't help either. I'm sorry this author's note was immensely long, I just needed to explain a few things.

Blumiere

It had been over a month since I had seen Timpani. Each day my thoughts were filled with her, despite my father telling me to not think of her.

"Blumiere!" I heard someone yell.

I had my door closed, so I couldn't tell who's voice it was. I opened the door and to my surprise, it wasn't my father.

"Hello," said the purple and gold clad jester.

"What?" I hissed, "Dimentio, I'm not in the mood to play a game with you."

"Oh Blumiere, I wish to play no game. In fact, I was wondering if you could pick me up some things in Flipside today."

"Okay," I replied.

I quickly rushed down the corridors of the castle and down the stairs. I expected my father to bellow, "Blumiere! Where are you going?" but he was asleep.

I soon arrived in Flipside with the list of items Dimentio wanted me to purchase for him. I have to admit, some of the items on the list were a pit peculiar, such as a poison mushroom and an x-acto knife. I obviously didn't get those things for him. Who knows what an insane jester would do with such things.

Timpani

I was in Flipside shopping for myself. It had been a long time since I had seen him.

I wonder if I'll ever see Blumiere again? I thought probably won't, though, tribe rules…

As I walked out of one of Howzit's shops, I saw a familiar figure from behind.

"Could it be?" I thought out loud.

He turned to the side, and I could see his facial features. It was him.

"Blumiere!" I shouted excitedly as I glided toward him.

His gaze turned toward me as I shouted his name.

"Blumiere! I can't believe it's you!" I said. I sounded as happy as a child on Christmas morning.

"Hello, Lady Timpani," he said coolly as he smiled, "so, how have you been?"

"I've been fine," I responded, "what about you?"

"Yes, I've been okay. I thought we would never see each other again."

"Me either."

Blumiere glanced around, and he began to walk away.

"Timpani," he said, "I see a fellow member from the Tribe of Darkness up ahead; we cannot be seen together."

He began to rush away, but I stopped him.

"So," I replied, "is this goodbye…for good?"

He sighed.

"I…I don't know."

I suddenly got an idea.

"Hey!" I said, "how about we meet here in Flipside once a week?"

He was silent for a moment.

"Sure. That'll work, I suppose."

"Bye, Blumiere."

"So long…Lady Timpani."

As he walked away, I began to realize something….

That I was in love for the first time.
