Ch.11 Stop That
I'm alive and still continuing! Now I'm no longer busy and bored and was like hey! I have stories to finish! Sorry for the wait!
"Morning Beautiful! Why are sleeping on the floor?" Crimsons fluttered open. "Well hurry up! It's already time for school!"
"What?" Brick glanced at his clock then at his idiotic brother. "Why didn't you wake me up sooner?"
"You're beautiful when you're asleep," the blonde said with a smile. "I really love seeing your red hai-"
Brick's hand was on his brother's throat. "Fuck. Off."
The trembling blonde seem to get the idea as his voice croaked out an, "O-okay!"
Once released his grip the little blonde ran away, but not before shouting out a, "You should see the new dress!"
Brick nearly tripped rushing to get ready. Bitch, he sighed as he went to the restroom and saw the bite mark on his lip. Look at that she marked you like her property. He closed his eyes and sighed deeply. This is gonna be a long day.
"Brick!? Sweetie, you're usually never late? What happened?" His mother said as she placed a crepe in front of him. "Look sweetie! I got up early this time."
Brick saw this pattern before. Usually when his father was with the babysitter, it happened. His mother would go through denial by trying to act like the perfect wife. Pathetic.
"Thank you Mommy!" he glanced at the brunette shoving her food in her mouth never once acknowledging the redhead. "It's really good."
"My adorable cutie pie!" The bubbly blonde gave the brunette a kiss. "Oh by the way Sweetie you might not know this but every Thursdays, Fridays, and Tuesdays you and the boys will be taking a fighting class. Okay!"
"You're going to let me fight?" Brick raised a brow at the girl's genuine surprised reaction. "Mommy Angel you're not lying are you?"
"Of course not Sweetie! Mommy will never lie to you okay?" She gave Buttercup a kiss on her cheek causing the brunette to blush and Brick to growl. "When I was a little girl I used to be a champion in martial arts too. Actually thats how me and my wonderful Honey met..." She blushed at the thought.
"Mommy! You never told us that," Boomer had been getting everybody to come down for breakfast, with a bruise on his eye, the redhead was able to tell he saw Butch. "You said you and Daddy were arranged to be married."
The inferior woman got a pack of ice and gave it to the little blonde. "No sweetie, me and daddy met fighting, but it was an arranged marriage..."
Brick ignored her as she babbled on. Staring as the little brunette kept putting food down her small mouth. He smirked knowing how she tasted. Then her emeralds stared at her plate in frustration. "Hey Butter Butt," Butch sat next to her and grabbed food off her plate shoving it in his mouth. She glared at him then shoved her plate in his face. There was no surprise that they started to wrestle. Crimson eyes stared in jealousy. He walked over kicked Butch in the stomach and grabbed Buttercup by the collar. Butch spat out, "Bitch," before going back to his seat. While Brick noticed her dress. The one Boomer mentioned earlier. He grinned. This dress, he realized, was red. His color.
"Nice dress," Brick let her down. To his surprise she gave no reaction. He growled. Then pulled her collar back to him. "What are you going to ignore me know?"
"Let your sister go," the stern voice reminded him that everyone, including his father, were now sitting around the table for breakfast. "Sit down and eat."
Brick let go and sat down ignoring his father's burning glare as he stabbed his crepe. Taking a bite he frowned. For some reason this crepe was more bitter than sweet.
~~Skip to school~~
Brick hated it. He was in his favorite spot with his favorite book. However his mind was focused on one thing. What the fuck is that bitch doing, Brick wore an annoyed expression as the inferior female ran around playing freeze tag with a bunch of kids. They consisted of that annoying girl next door, that crazy psychopath, the weird kid with an imaginary friend, and the worst one of all was the trailer park boy...
"Haha! Got you Buttercup!" the poverty stricken child had tackled her to the floor. He was on top of her. Her cheeks flushed, panting hard from running, laid beneath him. Her dress was revealing more skin than usual from falling in the grass. "You got to freeze!"
Didn't she know better than to smile at that peasant, Brick's thoughts betrayed him as he tried to continue reading his book. Who knew the little bitch could make friends faster than you? Especially being popular with the boys. She'll end up kissing that rat's dirty poverty-stricken lips, but with him she'll be begging for more...
His feet were already carrying him towards her. He stood above her. He didn't smile noticing her dress rode up her thigh. He was able to make out her panties. She seem to realize this as she pulled down her red cloth. His favorite color...
"Hey Brick! Did you want to play with us?" The Robin girl appeared in front of him as she tagged Buttercup who jumped up and ran faster than he could speak. "That's none of your concern."
She rolled her eyes. "Geez, maybe if you weren't so grouchy you'd have a chance with her."
"What are you talking about?"
"Ugh! Boys!" She then ran away as another kid tried to tag her. Leaving him alone. Again.
~~Skip to Dojo~~
The girl's mother dropped her and her brothers off at the Dojo. They had closed practices, so her mother left while an older girl named Ashi helped her get dressed. It was the brunette's first day in class. She didn't know anybody. Other than her so called brothers. She wasn't sure where she was with Butch, despite his psychotic mannerism he wasn't that bad, but he's still crazy. Boomer was just as bubbly as her real sister. It just made her miss her sisters more... Then there was Brick. Memories of yesterday would come back to her. Mainly whenever she looked at him. The memories made her feel something in her stomach. She frowned and slumped to the floor. She didn't even know what to say to him. I didn't like it! But still... Her cheeks redden a little.
"Are you alright little one," She looked up and froze. The man was tall, slim, and had her father's face. Her real father. "Buttercup, am I right." He even smiles like the Professor... She blushed at how silly she was being... Still. Bending down the man gave her a small pat on her head. "I'm Jack, your teacher. Now let's go introduce you to the class shall we?"
She rendered speechless as she took his outstretched hand and followed him in front of the other kids. Some older, some her age, and others old looking. "Class this is Buttercup. Please show her the same respect as you would towards one another."
The other kids shouted out, "Yes Samurai Jack."
He blushed. "It's Sensei Jack students. Now everybody pick a partner. Today we will be doing our favorite take downs..."
Being left alone Buttercup watched as people partnered up.
"Come on." she was about to thank the voice, but it was the crimson eyed brother who approached her. "It's not like anybody else is going to be partners with the new kid."
She glared. Mainly because she really wanted to hurt him. Mainly because of yesterday. Her cheeks went red. She stayed quiet but didn't deny his offer. She still didn't want to talk to him. She didn't know what to say.
"Buttercup since you're new, we're going to let Brick go first. Then you." She nodded. She easily copied her so called brother's stance. "Ah Buttercup have you ever fought before? You seem to adapt pretty easily."
She blushed at her teacher's compliment. "No," She admitted shly. "This is my first time-" She never saw it as a blur of red hair dropped her to the floor knocking the air out of her. "Next time-" She glared at him as her Sensei wore a curious look. "-You shouldn't be distracted by some old man."
"Shut up!" She used her leg and kicked at his. He jumped back avoiding her, but with that she got up and started to punch him. He easily dodged her and simply continued to block. She was getting agitated. Her anger got the best of her as she realized he wasn't even trying to lay any sort of punches. Just evading. She growled. Then ended up charging at him, but at the last minute side stepped, got behind him then wrapping her arms around his waist, and threw him over her head and body slammed him to the floor. The other kids watched wide eyed, because Brick got taken down. A star pupil got taken down. By a new kid. An inexperienced newbie.
"Oh! Where did you learn that move?" Strangely their teacher didn't stop them. He seemed to curious to why Brick hadn't attacked her harder. Like his other partners before. That and why the young boy went rigid when she grabbed him by the waist. He never hesitates when he fights... He smiled at the girl. "Good job Buttercup. You seem like you're going to be an exceptional addition to this class."
Her face went red again. "Thanks."
While Brick laid on the ground staring at the ceiling. What is happening to me, the only reason he didn't reverse her attack was because she had touched him! Her slim arms wrapped around his waist. He felt her skin against his for a brief second. He couldn't comprehend the feeling the surge through him, but he did feel his back hit the mat beneath him. Just kill me now... If only...
~~After class~~
Everyone had already emptied the Dojo. Except for him. The redhead stared at the spot where the intense emeralds took him down in one move.
"Brick what are you still doing here?"
He sighed in annoyance. "Oh now you want to talk to me."
She rolled her eyes. "Mommy is going to be here soon."
"So."
"So... hurry up! We're all ready to leave! You're the only one not ready!" Before she could leave she felt his intense gaze on her. She clenched her fists. Turning around she got in his face. "What do you want!?"
He grabbed her by the throat she bit him. Blood trickled down his hand he didn't care. He squeezed harder. Then she kicked him in his private area. He dropped to the floor. Breathing hard she lunged at him. He was on his back this time, while she was above him, her lips parted with each breath. Sweat trickled down her neck, beneath her dress. The red one from earlier. His crimson eyes followed the sweat and without thinking and bit her collar bone. She fell back in pain. Now her legs were straddling him. He couldn't find himself hating this position, but grabbed the back of her head and pulled her face towards his. He frowned, "Why are you so irritating."
"Why are you a jerk!" She head butted him. Causing him to loosen his grip. She got up and dusted her dress off stomping away. Then paused at the door. "And I'm not disinfecting your arm!"
He was yet again staring at the ceiling. Why does it always end up like this? Because the little bitch literally gets your pathetic mind. Thanks.
~~ A week goes by~~
The rest of the week was already routine. Their father and mother would disappear leaving them with their babysitter. Strange enough the psychotic brother befriended the brunette. "She's a funny bitch," he'd reply. "And fun to make bleed." The little blonde was stranger. He'd follow her around, mainly to hide from Butch, because she was like a shield for him. The girl next door was the only female that the brunette really enjoyed. Her along with a girl from the Dojo around their age. She ended up being her Dojo partner. Since her last one was... the strangest of all. The redhead would stare at her, constantly. Like he wanted something from her. Yet he remained hostile, well from the girl's point of view. In reality, the young redhead was victim to the green emerald child's charm, and encountering her caused him to aggressively flirt with her. Not that he was aware of his actions. Everything seem as well as could be... Until Wednesday came. Three new kids were introduced to the class... Three new kids that would make Brick fall even harder...
TBC
I hate quarantine. If this story seems off, I needed to find a way to speed it up (apologies) b/c if I didn't I wouldn't be able to get to the... more mature content. And won't have the will to finish it. And trust me I want to finish it and move onto other stories like Sky. But the next chapter will have a steady rhythm.
I thank you for following and leaving reviews!
