The Last Normal Years

"Remember"

"Ooh, remember!" Those lyrics from that one particular song stuck in my head, why did my ears focus on those words specifically. What am I suppose to remember? I tossed and turnt in my Alfea bed, Flora sat up concerned about her orange haired roommate. It was as if a swell transformation was occurring now that Bloom revealed her identity to the other three girls.

"Ugh." Flora sighed to herself. "Why do I care about this Earthling girl whom the only thing I know about is real identity."

Yet, Flora's heart crinkled at Bloom's tormented sleep state. Something deeper than anything today had been triggered by today's events. Flora wondered if it had something to do with Violete's welcoming interaction with Bloom, she had heard Violete had used to be so distrusting of other Alfea students though she didn't know why.

She had woken up from her sleep herself to a terrible nightmare created from gossip she overheard from her own realm citizens. And the Royals wouldn't shut it down. She couldn't get it off her mind at all tonight. She sat down on her roomie's bedside, and sparked her powers. "Nature's calm!"

Her green magic wraps around me and started affecting my dreams, green english ivy grew up around white columns in a golden hall. A light was the door at the other end of the hall with every step I tried running closer and yet the end of the hall never seemed to cease yet.  My feet felt immediately as they had been numbed by frostbite feeling heavy bricks or a pail filled with water would also feel heavy.

"Remember!"

"What?" I gasped. "Who's there? Why are you talking to me? Do I know you? Show yourself!"

"I cannot, you must remember, it will give me strength, Bloom, then I will reveal my appearance to you, remember, remember!" The mystery voice whispered to me in a friendly manner.

"Uh, huh!" I woke up with a start.

I opened the dresser drawer between mine and Flora's bed. The golden locket was safe inside it. I had decided after what Icy had mentioned about it, it might draw too much attention to me if it fell out of my shirt again unfortunately. I picked it up. A bright light was emitted from it, it showed Flora coming out of our bathroom we'd share.

"You're up this late too, Flora?" I asked.

"Yeah, I can't sleep either, rumors in my head from my home-world of Linphea Bloom and they're all about me quote on quote saying. "'That I'm an Outsider fairy of Nature that my Dad cheated on my Mom. Miele and I don't believe it. The Princess doesn't believe it says there is no proof for it."

"That's awful, gossiping and spread rumours are never good, and those who do it have significantly weak and wicked hearts, sweetheart, Flora." I stammered. I felt bad for her. It was the same kind of way I felt about Sally losing her normal leg's ability to walk like other girls at Gardenia Grade Highschool. "Stuff like that occurs almost every year in the U. S. A on Earth it's breaking news for no reason and reporters should mind their own business and not blow something way out of proportion as they always tend to do. At least that's what my Scottish American friend told has told me. That's why he refuses to live in the U. S. A."

"He seems like from the way you talk about him, he would never do anything to hurt you?" Flora guessed about my best neighbor. I nodded and said. "Yes. He would never do anything to hurt me, Flora."

I picked up the sketch book and drew Flora's profile, her beautiful face with emerald eyes and gorgeous brown hair and pink pajama shirt.

"This is what I think about you already Flora. F is for Fun you have a zest to add to life, dear." I reassure her immediately. "L is for the Little things you do everyone one of those things you perform will add up, friend. O is for Old fashion you cherish the past and tradition that could've been lost in time. R is for refreshing is the way you turn your sparkling on. A is for Able, because you are able to withstand and hold your ground against the challenges that cone your way, Flora."

"What are these animals around my letters, Bloom?"

"Letter F stands for Fox, L is for Lemur, O is for Orangutan I think, R is for Rhinoceros and A is for Armadillo."

"This is really cute, Bloom, thanks." Flora said as she took the paper Bloom wrote for her.

"You're welcome. Tell me what happened on your plant Flora, please do."

"Alright, it started on my 16th birthday earlier this year on March." Flora responds maybe it would be better to tell someone after all this time. We were in the woods and I was with my little sister, Miele and we were riding ladybugs together when we landed one of the meadows. I heard laughing with my sister at my side.

"So clusmy and clueless that she doesn't know the Queen believes her to be a foreign."

"Who talking about Giustina?" asked Lilac.

"Miss Flora of course, little sister."

"Yeah, her Father's gotta be a cheat." Cortland replied laughing hugely.

"Totally, what do you think, Delancie, my dear cousin and what about you friends, Shailynne, Briauna, and Anneka?"

"I agree if she just went to where she came from our world would be better off."

"I mean look at her beauty it doesn't match any of us, she's too unique she stands out." chuckled Shailynne. "We don't have any natural camouflage but Flora does possibly because some might perceive her as a monster very soon." Flora's heart cracked in half that day on her birthday, those words haunting her life for 6 months. Bloom came up onto her bed and hugged her a fire floods Flora's veins such as she never felt before right now.

"I will help you prove those gossipers wrong." I vow to her as my new best friend this evening. "Try to get some sleep, we have to be up earlier than jsual tomorrow for breakfast, Flora."
