Budding

Leon's angry, his little brother won't talk to him and now he has to go to Ballonlea to talk to Bede. Of course he 'wasn't' just going for Bede, but to also battle Opal, totally. Once he made it he knocked on the door and Opal came out. "Your here for Bede aren't you?" Leon nodes and kind jumps. "We'll be just left a minute ago to meet up with his friends. Better get going." Leon walks off in defeat.

Opal closed the door. "He's gone now child." Little does Opal know, Leon has his ear against the door listening. "C'mon now, you can't hide from him forever, he is his older brother." Bede feels shivers down his spine, he never told Opal what happened, yet she knows. "Sonia called me dear, now tell me which rose is you?" Bede froze, he felt another presence. He pointed at the door. "There is nothing there, here I will show you." As Opal opens the door Leon goes face first onto the floor. "Never mind."

Bede doesn't even make eye contact with Leon, but texts Hop to pick up his older brother.

Bede

Hop
No I don't want to

Bede
He's going to ask me if I like anyone dummy.

Hop

Bede

Hop
Ok coming.

Hop
Here hurrY up.

Hop

Bede
You can edit messages.

Hop
Cool? anyways open the door.

Bede walks to the door. Opal doesn't realize someone's there. "Hey Leon let's go!" Leon's head jolted at hearing Hops voice.

"Why are you here?" Hop folded his arms.

"I could ask the same." Leon looks defeated, as he couldn't even talk to Bede about his and, Hops, relationship. Before they left, Hop gave Bede a fist bump. Hop then turned away and left. "Ok, now they can't hear us, what the heck, are you DOING!" Leon laughs.

He places a hand on Hops shoulder. "Trying to get to the end of love." Hop brushed his hand off and rolled his eyes. He didn't like Bede, and Bede didn't like him, Right?

"Now Bede, tell me which rose you are." Bede sighs, looking at Opal.

He looked down, and embarrassed. He fidgeted with his thumbs. "I, I'm the red one."

"It's clear if he came all this way for you, it's not far from impossible to make him yours." Opal reassured Bede.

"I know but, it's clear he doesn't like me." Bede says while standing up, he gets ready to walk off.

"The yellow rose is only budding, only time can change it Bede." Opal smiled as Bede headed up the stairs.

"Thanks Opal." He says while walking up to him bed, flustered and defeated.
