Well, here chapter six. Can't say much, but lets go!
It had been a week since that fateful day. I had barley left my room since then, not even for school. Bathroom, and food. The two reasons I left my room. Tuesday morning the next week, I stayed under the sheets,punching the alarm clock, breaking it instantly. I sat up, looking around the room. It was dark,but I could still see the marks of my sadness. The room was torn apart. laser holes in the wall,my knuckles had made marks in the walls were I'd punched it, and then there was the pictures. For each picture of my and Dexter in the room, I'd smashed, or drawn a horrible version of Brick over Dexter, trying to erase his presence from my life. I groaned and rolled over. 10 minutes later, I heard the door open, and Bubbles walked in
"Blossom?"
"What?" I asked, my voice cracking.
"Are you coming to school today?"
"No"
"Um,okay. Well, the professor wants to see you downstairs..."
"I don't care"
"Blossom, he really needs to see you"
"Alright" I dragged myself outta bed, and walked past Bubbles.
"You look awful. Like a truck ran you over and then backed up over you to"
"Boy, every girl wants to here that" I walked down the stairs, and faced the professor.
"Blossom, why aren't you going to school again?"
"I can't"
"Why not?"
"Because I can't"
"Why?"
"Because!"
"Why?"
"I can't face Brick!" I shouted, Bubbles and Buttercup exchanging a look behind me.
"What happened?"
"I don't wanna talk about it right now" I floated back up to my room, and threw the sheets back over myself. It was five minutes before school started, and the door opened again,this time with the sound of little sniffles. I lifted my head a little to see Bubbles slowly closing the door to my room.
"Bubbles?" I asked.
"Yeah?"
"Why are you here?"
"No reason"
"Bubbles, don't lie" She sniffled, pulled out her phone, and tossed it to me. I looked at it. It was a text conversation.
Bubbles: hey Boomer
Boomer:Bubbles...
Bubbles:whats wrong?
Boomer:You need to understand something
Bubbles: Yeah?
Boomer:Until Blossom apologizes to Brick, we can't go out.
Bubbles:Um,okay...
Boomer:Bubbles, I still want to, but Brick gone into a self destructive spiral. He wants me to.
Bubbles:Well don't listen
Boomer:You don't know Brick when he's really angry...
I looked up at Bubbles
"I'm sorry"
"Don't be. It isn't your fault."
"Yes, it is"
"No, it isn't"
"How so?"
"I don't know I just don't want to blame you for this!" She sat own next to me, and together, we sobbed.
"So ,why can't you face Brick?" She asked.
"I...I...I'd run away"
"Why?" I explained what had happened.
"Wow, Blossom. Just, wow"
"Yeah"
"Well, if that's why you won't go to school, you needn't worry. Brick hasn't been at school all week either"
"Great. I missed all that school for nothing" Bubbles laughed.
"Well, how about we head out on the own, to clear our minds?"
"Sounds good" So me and Bubbles flew out to town, and we must have stayed out walking around, buying stuff, flying back home to drop it off, and flying back. Bubbles had split from me for just one second, and I had just wandered off into the mall, just lost in my own thoughts. I don't know how long I did this, and I wandered to the parking lot. I stopped at the sound of a throat clearing. I turned to see Princess frowning at me.
"What,Princess?"
"What did you do?"
"Huh?"
"What did you do to Brick?" I snorted
"Why do you care? He hates you, remember what happened? Your 'Toys?'" Princess flinched
"Yeah, he kicked me in the face. Big deal. It was 10 years ago ,when he thought I had cooties"
"Still, he hates you"
"Stop trying to change the subject! What did you do?"
"Nothing, bitch!" Princess stared at me.
"Did you swear? At me?"
"Yeah, so what?"
"You've never sworn at anyone"
"First time fore everything"
"Yeah, what ever"
"And I didn't do anything to Brick"
"Yunno,I heard you fucked him, and then didn't go out with him, because your a horny bitch who just wanted to get laid" My anger welled up inside me, the pot of lava above my heart dipped into my heart,pumping lava through me.
"Where did you here that?"
"Teenage gossip. But hey, I think you are a ginger without a soul" Princess crossed the line with that one. I launched myself at here, punching and kicking. I felt a pair of strong hand wrap around my waist, and pulled me off. As I struggled, my captor turned to Princess.
"Get outta here" She turned and ran. When she was outta sight, he let me go.
"What the hell!" I yelled. I looked up, and didn't believe who I saw. Brick stood there, his hands in his pockets, his crimson eyes were extremely bloodshot, so it looked like his eyes had no whites.
"Brick?"
"Yeah, it's me" His voice was so devoid of emotion,and it definatly cracked. I wanted to cry.
"What are you doing here? I mean, so close to me?" He shrugged
"I don't know" There it was again. His voice was dead flat. Not a sign that he had any emotions. just, speaking,no emotions to back it up (Fuck, you all know what I mean). Me and Brick had an uncomfortably silence, until he turned on his heel and left.
Apologize, Blossom! Tell him you love him! I grabbed Brick's arm, and whipped him around.
"Brick, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you, with that happened last week. I panicked. I didn't mean to..." The rest of my sentence was cut off as Brick pressed his lips against my own, and I stopped trying to talk. I savored the taste of Brick's soft lips, until he pulled away. I stared at him.
"Why did you do that? I thought you hated me" Brick laughed softly.
" I never said I hated you"
"I figured you did, because I, yunno, I..." Brick laughed.
" I can understand how you panicked. I would've too"
"Yeah, I guess, but you didn't need to get so offensive"
"You loved it" I giggled
"Yeah, I did" I kissed him this time, allowing for the familiar shiver to run down my body, giving me goosebumps, and I loved it, every second of it. When we pulled away again, Brick looked at me
"You are breaking up with Dexter tomorrow" I smiled, and moved in closer, as though to kiss him, but teased him instead by moving close, then not making the connection.
"I don't have a problem with that"
Aw! sweet! anyway, I gotta say, I like writing this chapter, especially Princess' bit. R&R!
