We meet again

Part 15

Brick POV:

I hate getting up early. I hate getting up early and realizing I forgot to do my assignment that's due today at second period.

So there I was, sitting at the table. Writing on my computer until my fingers ached. Writing until my eyes burned from the blue-light radiating off of the screen.

I was so close to being done when my phone rang. I nearly jumped out of my seat, it was so loud too.

"I hope you have an explanation for nearly giving me a heart attack. Because if you don't-"

"Bubbles knows! She knows about Chemical Y!"

If I was taking a drink I would of spit it out and short circuited my computer. Thank gosh I wasn't. "HOW?!"

"Ugh! I should of waited to tell both of you at lunch. Now I have to explain it again," I heard Boomer take a deep breath, "The other day when we got drunk I wrote myself a note saying that I wasn't supposed to tell Bubbles about the chemical. She found the note when I passed out and now I think she's going to tell Buttercup and Blossom."

"Boomer... WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" I stood up and marched to my room so Blossom couldn't walk in on me having this conversation.

I walked into the bathroom that was attached to the room and turned the shower on. I sat down on the floor and waited for my idiot of a brother to continue.

"So I called Butch, and he said for me to call you because you'll think of a plan to keep Bubbs from telling the others."

"Why the hell would you tell Butch before me?!"

"Uhhhh.... I dunno! Maybe because Buttercup has a higher chance of shit going wrong!"

"Woah! Little bro using some big words, you're really frustrated."

"DO YOU HAVE A PLAN OR NOT?!"

I sigh and look around my room. "You could always.... tell her it was a prank?"

"You really think she'd believe me?! I've already confirmed it!"

"Ugh! Boomer!" I pinch my nose and close my eyes. "Let me think, alright? I'll call you back or I'll tell you the plan at Lunch."

Boomer didn't even say anything, he just hung up. "Seriously? Gonna be a bitch?" I roll my eyes and head back out of my room.

Blossom's awake and is currently slathering avocado stuff on toast. I can't help but smile at her. She looks absolutely gorgeous in those mom jeans and pink sweater. However... what she's eating looks disgusting.

"The hell is that?"

"It's avocado on toast, duh." She rolled her eyes and took a bite. "So? You still working on that assignment?"

I groan and sit back down. "Yeah. Almost done, but I got a call from Boomer."

She nodded her head and set a banana down beside me. "I'm gonna head to Bubbles dorm for a bit. See ya."

"Bye!" I called out as she left.

Blossom POV:

I went and hung out with Bubbles in her dorm for a bit. Boomer kept giving us a side eye. Bubbles was talking like there was no tomorrow.

"...and then I told her to go change. Because nobody wants to see her butt hanging out. Plus it's like really cold and Halloween is just around the corner, so why is she in shorts? Oh! Did you hear that the Cinema is open!? I'm going to catch a movie with some girl named June latter. She helps out in the office. We've actually become pretty good friends! And then BLA BLA BLA" she wouldn't shut up. Once she started there was no off switch.

I only nodded and smiled, pretending to listen to what she was saying. In reality I was thinking about what I'd overheard at my dorm.

When I woke up, I could hear beick yelling in his room. I didn't know what exactly he was talking about, but he sounded pretty angry. I heard him shout something about telling someone it was just a prank. But what could be just a prank? He told me he was on the phone with Boomer.... what if Boomer did something?!

What if he did something to hurt Bubbles?! What if he did something to hurt Bubbles and Brick was telling him ways to cover it!? What if Boomer—

"Are you even listening to me?" Bubbles voice was enough to snap me out of my trance.

"Huh?"

"I was telling you about how Princess isn't gonna be here today. She's supposedly sick."

"Pft- I call bull." I roll my eyes, knowing full well she's not sick.

"We should head to first period." Bubbles giggled and stood up. "And then after school is over, we should meet in one of our dorms to get ready."

"Dorm 103's party right?"

Bubbles nodded her head before grabbing her bag and rushing out. I laughed and followed after her.
