Brick avoided Blossom all day, he couldn't stare at her the same way. He had no idea if she remembered anything or tried to talk to him. He didn't need her thinking he liked her, because he didn't.

He only wants to see Blossom as a friend.

"Brick?" Boomer asked.

Brick blinked a couple times then looked at his younger brother. Boomer raised his eyebrow towards him, Brick looked down and saw lunch tray. Brick shook his head, giving Boomer a weak smile then walked towards their lunch table.

"What's wrong with you?" Butch asked.

"Huh?" Brick asked

"That's how he's been all day." Boomer said.

Butch looked at Brick, "What happened at the party?"

"What party?" Brick asked.

"Don't play stupid." Butch snapped.

Butch threw a french fry at him, making Brick flinched. Brick flicked away the fry and mumbled some curse words. Boomer looked between his brothers while eating a BLT.

"So," Boomer said with a mouth full. "Nofung happoned?"

"Huh?" Butch asked.

"Nothing. I didn't go to a party or hung out with Blossom." Brick said.

"Never said anything about her." Boomer said as he grabbed a spoon full of corn.

"I thought you hate corn." Butch said but getting ignored.

"I didn't say her name at all either." Brick lied.

Boomer rolled his eyes, "Of course you didn't." He said then looking at his corn. "Ew, I hate corn."

"I just said that!" Butch yelled.

"I didn't! Why are you on my case?" Brick asked.

"Why are you so jumpy?" Boomer asked.

"Why am I being ignored?" Butch asked.

Brick slammed his fist on the table, causing some attention. Boomer narrowed his eyes and grabbed his BLT. Brick raised his eyebrow, he opened his mouth to say something but Boomer shoved the sandwich in his face.

"Ew! It got on me!" Butch exclaimed.

"What the actual heck!" Brick yelled.

"That's for being a liar!" Boomer yelled, then stormed off.

Brick reached for a napkin and wiped his face, mumbling. Butch waved his arms in the air, wanting to have someone pay attention to him. Brick sighed and rubbed his temples, then looked over at Butch.

"When did you get back?" Brick asked.

Butch widened his eyes and grabbed the bowl of corn.

"That's what you say to me!" Butch yelled.

He poured the bowl of corn in Brick's hair. Butch stomped off, yelling curse words in English and Spanish. He heard some kids laughed at him but Brick stood up and walked out of the lunchroom.

Brick saw his brothers talking to each other, he waved but they turned away. He frowned and walked to the bathroom, starting to clean his face. Brick picked out the corn and cursed his brothers.

He didn't know why they were mad at him. Brick didn't feel like telling them, Boomer should've understood that. He also didn't know why Butch shoved corn on his head, he just came back to the table. Butch didn't hear the whole conversation.  Boomer on the other hand, he just acted out in Brick's opinion.

"Ugh, I so hate being a older brother." Brick mumbled.

He walked out of the bathroom, making his way to math and came face to face with Blossom. She widened her eyes and dropped her books. Brick felt his face turning a bright red but he coughed then crossed his arms. He glared at her, which made her frown. Brick started to feel guilty but she is the reason why his brothers are in a fight.

Blossom licked her lips, "Are you feeling alright?"

"I'm fine." Brick snapped.

Blossom flinched which made Brick frowned. He sighed and put his hand on her shoulder. Blossom looked at his hand, wondering why he was being nice to her. She pushed off his hand then rubbed her temples.

"I'm sorry for bumping in you. I kinda skipped my last period." Blossom said.

Brick raised his eyebrow, "You actually do that?"

"Yeah, sometimes, only when I'm stressed."

"Wanna talk about it?"

"No thanks. I'm actually just going to head home."

"Is the party still bugging you?"

Blossom shook her head, she gave him a small smile then walked away. He didn't want to be a jerk and let her walk home. Brick could care less if his brain is in a jumble. He is already mad at his brothers, why did they get mad at him anyway? He sighed and grabbed her arm.

"Why don't I take you home. I mean you don't have a car." He said.

"I'll be fine." Blossom replied.

"Blossom, come on. What's the worst thing could happen?"

She sighed and nodded. Brick smiled and walked her to his car. He put his hands in his pockets and hummed. Blossom felt her heart beating fast, for two reasons. Brick actually touched her arm and wanted to drive her home.

She opened the door and sat down, putting on her seatbelt. Brick started the car and jazz music played in the background. Blossom looked over at him, Brick nodded along and pulled out of the parking lot. Brick finally looked at her with confusion written across his face.

"What? You want me to change the channel?" He asked.

"No! I just didn't think you would listen to jazz." Blossom said.

"Why not? It's extremely peaceful. Do you listen to jazz?"

"Not really. I'm more into todays music."

"Like Young Thug or Adele?'

"Neither. I'm more into DNCE and Ariana Grande. Plus Nicki is amazing."

"You actually listen to Nicki?"

"Who doesn't? I personally think her songs are great. My favorite are The Boys or Only. Maybe old to some people, but I love them." She said with a smile.

Brick glanced at her and stunned by her smile. He quickly looked away and tighten his grip on his steering wheel. He didn't want her smile to affect him, even if it did, instead he wanted to be friends. Brick needed to be friends. It doesn't matter if his heart beats a million miles a minute when he's near her.

Brick pulled up at her house, "Here we are."

"Thank you Brick." Blossom said.

"Anytime." He replied.

Blossom gave him one last smile and walked to her house. Brick stared at her, unknowingly looking at her in a fond way.

But Brick only wanted to be friends, yet sometimes he doesn't.
