(Bricks POV)
Blossom slept peacefully next to me. I pushed a strand of hair from her face,tucking it behind her ear. She moved slightly. I paused.
She really was the most beautiful girl I'd ever met. She looked even more beautiful in her sleep. If that was even possible.
"Brick stop staring at me,it's creepy." She said as she rubbed her eyes. She sat up and kissed my cheek. She got out of bed and headed for the shower.
This had become our daily routine. She would wake up and catch me staring at. her,kiss me on the cheek and head for the shower. Then we would go about our day.
This had been going on for almost three years. I fell back on the bed and stared at the ceiling. Three years. Three years of running away.
"Brick!" I heard Blossom yell for the bathroom and I ran there. Blossom was standing in the middle of the small bathroom,staring at some object in her hand.
She looked like she had just seen a ghost. "Babe? what's wrong?" I asked as I slowly walked towards her. She held whatever was in her hand tightly and she wouldn't loosen her grip.
"Blossom,are you okay?" I put my hand on her forehead,she was fine. Then what was up? Blossom looked up at me,a small soft smile on her face.
"I'm pregnant," she said simply. "I'm pregnant,Brick." She repeated. I pulled her up in my hands,laughing into her neck. She hugged back and she whispered into my ear, "We're gonna be a family,Brick."
I pulled her closer and kissed her. We're gonna be a family. I couldn't believe it. Blossom was pregnant,with my child!
"Do you want a boy or a girl?" Blossom asked beside on the bed. I kissed her hand. "Both," she smiled. "Me too," she said.
"Brick,I don't want my child to grow up here," She said,looking around the apartment. I knew what she meant. Megaville wasn't exactly the best place to raise a child.
I expected this conversation to come up later,but now it can't be helped. "Do you wanna go back to Townsville?" I asked. She looked at me. "I want what's best for this child,and if it's Townsville,then yes."
Had Townsville learnt to accept our relationship in our absence? Was three years enough for them to understand?
Blossom seemed to wonder the same thing. Would they accept our child with open arms or forever treat the kid like an outsider?
"No one will hurt my baby," Blossom said and I could tell she was troubled. I tried lightening the mood. "Oh c'mon babe, you know nobody's gonna mess with me," I said, smirking.
"Ha ha, Brick,that's hilarious," Blossom said,rolling her eyes. She giggled. We laughed for atleast half an hour. When we finally stopped, we started preparing for our depature.
(Blossoms POV)
It had been a 3 weeks since we found out I was pregnant. I put my hand on my belly. In a couple of weeks,a bulge would start to show. I couldn't help but smile.
"Okay,the charity guys will come pick everything up tomorrow morning. They have the spare key." Brick said as he walked into the small bedroom.
We were leaving tonight. My heart beat faster. After three years we were finally going home. Brick held my hand. "It's gonna be okay,Blossy," He said as he put various items together for the charity people.
It was dark outside. I could barely see anything. The wind blew my hair everywhere and I hugged myself,shivering. Brick was still in apartment and he would be out soon. I stared down at the city from the roof. I would definitely not miss this place.
"Hey,Im here!" Brick said,landing on the roof. " Are you ready?" He asked grabbing my hand. I nodded. I was ready. Ready to face Townsville again.
"Then let's go," Just as we had done when we left Townsville,we flew up and up in the air with hope in our hearts. But the same question that had tormented me when we left,tormented me now: What if they never understand?
