Chapter 4: October
Blossom's POV
Can you believe it? It's already October! It's like September came just 2 days ago. Oh well, I can't say I'm sad that September went by so fast. It had its ups and downs, but let's put it in a language we'll all understand: It. Was. Horrible. Like really, it sucked so bad, I bet even blind kids would cry for us! The boys completely ignored us (nothing out of the usual there) and were total douchebags. Seriously, they like have douchebag written all over them. One time, I asked Butch if he could pass the crayons and he was like "Lazy bitch", and I was like "What did I ever do to you, jerk face?". And this other time he was RIGHT. NEXT. TO. THE. RULERS. and I asked him if he could pass me one and he said, "Just do it yourself" and I rolled my eyes, and grabbed a random ruler, keeping as much distance between us as possible. Then Bubbles and Breve came over, and he started FLIRTING with them. Bipolar, much? (Not meant to be offensive. One of my BFF's is one, and she's awesome.) Then, Bubbles, the poor, innocent soul asked for a ruler, and then, (In a dramatic retelling) he gives her one of those cheesy, dazzling smiles, (but I'm imagining him as an old hag with yellow teeth scaring her off) and then says, "Sure!" In the brightest SpongeBob voice I've ever heard, and it's like he was destined to do it. I was so annoyed I went outside around the corner of our class hallway just to do square breathing.
If I'd stayed another minute there, I bet I would've choked him to death on the spot. That asshole totally deserves it. And I ALWAYS have to help them with their work, cause they're too stupid to figure out simple, kindergarten work sheets, with the exception of Brick (sometimes, anyway). To defend myself, I've NEVER, not once, ever asked them for help. Like WTH? I don't mean to be a prude or anything, it's not like I want a medal, but they could at least TRY to be nicer (I know I have).
And I've been forcing on those fake smiles when the teacher comes by. It's that bad.
Other than that, I'm so excited for Halloween! I plan to go trick or treating with some of my friends, but sadly, to my disappointment, I learned today that Butch was also tagging along. First, he's a total jerk, now, stealing my friends? What's next, marrying Bubbles?! But I don't say a word. Wouldn't have made a difference anyway. I guess now's the time to introduce a few new characters:
Brave. I think her birthday was in November. She only told me once, and you can't expect me to remember everything. She's kinda short, I think it's dwarfism or something, at a 4'1. But she's really fit and she does gymnastics. Also, you don't want to get on her bad side. She can literally kill you, even with her height, she's really strong. Don't ask about her height, though (unless you want to end up mutilated or castrated, depending on your gender). She's okay in subjects, and one of those popular kinda peeps. Yah. She's in the same grade as me.
Brake. He's an average guy, but he's a bit taller than me like by 1 inch, so about 4'6 or so. He's kind of a wimp, and he brings money to school. The Gr.7 boys bully him. It's really horrifying, and so does Brave. Oh god, when I think back, I wish I'd stood up. I feel so guilty. He never goes to the washroom, and hangs around with his friends. Same grade.
Bracket. He's a Gr. 7, and one of the bullies. He's a mean guy, but occasionally Buttercup and I partake in teasing him. It's kinda fun, but I think we were too harsh on him. He's one of those douchebag tough guys who are super mean to people, but flirts with the "Pretty girls" (sounds like someone else I know. *Cough* Butch *Cough*). He's tall. At least 5'+.
Brand. He's also a Gr. 7, and the leader of the Gr. 7 trio. He's not so mean, and awesome at math. He's like the older version of Brick! I don't think he really wanted to abuse Brake, but thank goodness, the trio apologized afterwards and they all became friends. He's a bit taller than Bracket.
Bam. He's a Gr.7 as well, and the last of the trio. He's not really mean, and more of a joker. He is the older version of Boomer. I think he was friends with Brake first, so he kinda lead the revolution. He's tall as well, but kind of lanky. About the same height as the trio.
And that just about covers them up.
It's a Saturday, no school, hooray. I guess now's the right time to go into a bit of... Childhood history.
In preschool, I was with Butch and Brim. Actually, Butch and I were friends. But that was years ago. (Like 3,000 millennia.) In kindergarten, I met Buttercup and Brick. I became friends with Buttercup in just a week or less. Brick used to be so violent, anytime any kid came up within a 1 foot radius of him for whatever reason, he'd punch them in the face. It was kinda funny, now that I think of it. In grade 1, I was with Brick and Buttercup again. In grade 2, same story. But in grade 3, I had the addition of Bubbles and Butch, but I wasn't friends with Bubbles back then. In grade 4, I met Bubbles' twin sister, Cherry, and this was the one grade I wasn't with Buttercup. In grade 5, well, that's where I am now.
Now that we're done with the reminiscing, a bit more should be said about my... Relationships with the boys:
Butch: Total douchebag, not friends at all. He's 3rd on the friendship list, and 1st on the I-hate-you list.
Brick: We don't talk much, so personally, he's one of my favourites. He's not on the I-hate-you list, but he's 1st on the friendship list, though we're just mere acquaintances.
Boomer: We talk a bit, and he's a good acquaintance friend. He's another of my favourites, and ties with Brick on the friendship list. Same story.
Brim: He's tied with Brandon on my lists. I don't know why, but I just have a strong disliking for him, and I always feel the need to be cold to him. It's unexplainable.
