Chapter Six
Ozzie's POV:
I watched as Blossom's eyes grew wide. She unbuckled and bolted out the door leaving me stunned.
Blossom's POV:
When he heard me barely whisper under my breath, I panicked. I did the only thing I could think of doing, I ran away.
I am such a coward. I shouldn't have run away.
I ran until my heart threatened to beat right out of my chest. As I collapsed onto my eyes I felt the first tear come. Then another, and another and another, and pretty soon I was sobbing.
Why did I mess everything up? I asked myself as my head fell into my hands on my lap.
Ozzie's POV:
After I got over the shock of her bolting I ran after her. She was fast and soon I couldn't see her anymore.
I ran in the direction she went until I came upon her crumpled figure, shaking softly from her sobs.
I crouched next to her and took her hands in mine, lifting her head up. Her green eyes where covered in tears and her makeup was running.
She looked beautiful.
"Shh. Come here I'm sorry." I tell her enveloping her in a hug. After a while of sitting like this She pulls away.
Looking me in the eyes she whispered the first words she ever told me. "I'm such an emotional wreck right?"
I chuckle softly. Only she can go from sobbing to cracking jokes. "Yes. Yes you are Blossom. Care to tell me why? if... if that is its okay... that is?" I ramble.
She smiles slightly up at me. "Your funny you know that?" She asks before her smile becomes a frown.
She sighs. "When I was 14 my twin went missing. We where really close, as twins should be. Then a year latter she was found in a ditch barely alive. She had been abused and almost died. Then last year she did die. She caught the flu and it killed her!" She yells the last part before bursting into tears again.
"She--She pro-promised s-she would-nt l-leave me ag-gain." She whispered between her tears.
"I- I'm so sorry. I know that doesn't help you but I really am." I tell her as she snuggles her head into my chest.
"Silence helped you cope didn't it?" I ask her and feel her nod against my chest.
"Come here." I sigh and pick her up and start walking back to the truck. By the time we got there she was asleep.
Rolling my eyes I laid her down on the seat and buckled her up.
On the way back to her house I heard her mumble in her sleep, I fell in love with you, like bees to honey.
Blossom's POV:
When I woke up I noticed I was in a bathing suit. Why?- Oh Ya... Ozzie.
*Beep* I get a text.

Ugh. I have to get ready now. I peel off the bathing suit and throw on a light sunset orange sundress and wear a cream sweater over the top, and of course as usual I wear my red/pink converses.
I Brush my teeth and hair and decide to leave it down. I walk into the kitchen and I see a note on the fridge.
Dear Blossom,
We had to leave early for Tom's basketball game. we'll see you next week.
Love mom
My little brother, Tom was amazing at basketball so he had a big match or something this week.
Since I had watching people play sports they decided that I could stay at home.

I hear Ozzie Pull up so I grab a water bottle for breakfast and head out to meet him.
