We meet again

Part 19

Blossom POV:

It's been a couple weeks since the party. Halloween's in a few days. Bubbles and I are still trying to talk Buttercup into a group costume. We were thinking of going as aliens. Or Egyptians. But Buttercup, being buttercup, wants to go as something scary. Maybe we can talk her into going as mummy's? Or vampires! Vampires are so hot~ eh?! Anyways!

I had enough of Buttercup still having her things packed. She acted like the second she unpacked, she'd be sent home because of who knows what. She also says that she'll probably end up with detention. I keep telling her that college doesn't do detention, but she won't listen to me.

So having enough of her bags still packed, I made it my mission to unpack her things for her. That's what I'm currently doing. Forcing her to help me unpack her things.

"Seriously? Why do I have to unpack? I find it easier to just leave it all in the suitcase." Buttercup groaned as I tossed a shirt at her to hang up.

"Because unpacking'll make you feel as if it's more permanent." I folded a pair of pants and put them in a drawer.

"Ugh!" She shoved some socks into a drawer and frowned. "I need to tell you something."

"Hm?"

"The boys are hiding something." Buttercup looked at me, no humor evident on her face. "And I think Bubbles knows what."

"How would she know? Better yet why?"

"I dunno." She shrugged. "But a few days ago she said she had something she needed to tell me. But Boomer jumped ontop of her and wouldn't let her speak."

"Now that I think about it, something similar happened to me too."

"I also overheard Butch saying something on the phone a while back. Something about you and me not being allowed to know something. When I asked he panicked then ran away. I shrugged it off, not really giving a fuck, but now that I think about it.... They're hiding something. I know it."

"I overheard Brick mentioning a prank while on the phone with Boomer. Maybe they're planning a prank and Bubbles is apart of it?" When I look away I notice a mirror in the corner of her room. It's broken and looks like dried blood stained some shards still attached. "Buttercup?"

"Don't even ask about that." She holds her hands up and shakes her head. "It's a long story." She looks away and I notice her cheeks are tinted a very light shade of pink. Is she... blushing?

"Uhhh Buttercup? Why are you red?"

"I AM NOT! FUCK OFF!" She gets all defensive and crosses her arms.

"Alright, alright, chill." I roll my eyes and laugh. "So~ have you thought about what Bubbles and I asked?"

"Bloss, I don't wanna do a group costume. You guys'd probably wanna be some princess or sugarplum fairy crap."

"What if we let you pick the costume?"

Her ears perked up but she didn't smile. "Oh yeah? You'd give me options and I'd have to pick one of your girly ones."

"What if I said you could pick whatever you want?"

"Whatever I want?"

"Whatever you want." 'This is probably a bad idea.'

"Even if I pick something totally stupid? You guys'd do it?"

I force a smile and nod. 'This is probably a really bad idea! I should of talked with Bubbles before making any decisions like this!'
