We meet again

Part 25

Bubbles POV:

It was really early in the morning. Like the sun wasn't even up yet. Like one hour passed midnight. Why is she calling me at one in the gosh darn morning?!

I stared down at the name on my screen.

Incoming call: BC

"Ugh...." I reach for my phone and slide the ringer. "Mm." I can't make words. I WAS ASLEEP! HOW AND WHY WERE YOU AWAKE, BUTTERCUP?! Ughhh!

"YOU'RE DATING A ROWDY?!" I have to fling the phone away from my ear as she yells. If I wasn't awake I am now.

"How the heck did you find out?!" I whisper yell in case Boomer's still sleeping. Which, due to the hour of the day, he probably is.

"How I found out isn't important. What is important is the fact that you're DATING A ROWDY?!" I hear Butch laughing in the background. That's how she found out.

"Y'know. Just because you don't wanna admit that your boyfriend told you, doesn't give you the right to yell at me."

"Excuse me? Boyfriend!? First of all—" I hang up before she can protest then place my phone down and slide back down under the covers. Later today'll be interesting, for sure. Especially family dinner.

BLOSSOM POV:

As the sun rose into the sky, I found myself starting out the window. Watching the world fade from black to color. The constellations in the sky slowly disappearing.

I was curled up on the couch with a book in my hands. I was wrapped in a blanket and had on a pair of bunny slippers. I usually wear my hair in braids before bed, tying them off with a pink ribbon.

I felt someone sneak up behind me and place their hands over my eyes. "Guess who~" they chuckled. Obviously it was Brick, because he's the only person here. Other than me of course.

"Mmmm... Veronica?"

"Do you even know a Veronica?" Brick came around and sat down beside me.

"I know a Vicky."

"That's not a Veronica." He rolled his eyes before stretching his arms in the air. "I've got shit to tell you."

"Uh oh..."

"Probably should specify," he chuckled. "It's good shit."

"Huh?" I tilt my head and arch a brow.

"Your sisters finally dating my brother."

"SINCE WHEN DID BUTTERCUP DECIDE SHE WANTED TO DATE BUTCH?!" I all but faint.

"Damn... I really need to work on specifics today. Your other sister is dating my other brother."

"Oh." I place a hand over my beating heart and sigh. Oh. OH! "AH! Bubbles and Boomer?!"

He nodded his head and smirked. "Ya guessed it pinky~ that blonde duo is official."

"I knew it wouldn't take 'em long!" I giggled and threw my arms around him. "Isn't this great? We might be in-laws!"

"You seriously think they'll get married?!" Fear and confusion are very visable on his face as I pull away from our embrace. "They can't get married! They're too young! They might- what if- this isn't-"

"Brick, breathe." I remind him. "It's not the end of the world."

He freezes and stares at me. He's hiding something... My eyes narrow as I try to figure out what. "Brick?" I ask. "everything alright?"
