It Will End In A Kiss

Meatloaf Day

(ROBIN)

Sunday was laze around day with my Bluebells. We started the morning with a refreshing swim and helping Gilbert transfer his pepper sproutlings from nursery to a garden plot. After luncheon, Blu and I stayed in my room, catching up from the notes we borrowed from classmates. Mine was from Xavier while Blu got his from AnneMarie.

"She sounded upbeat. Not like someone who is blackmailing an Akage," Blu sighed while studying his bestfriend's notes.

"She thinks she is winning. She reminded me that we need to scale up next week. Scale up what? I don't know..." she is giving me a headache.

"Maybe she is worried that others will start being suspicious of us. You kinda worried a little too much in the infirmary," Blu winced st me.

"And whose fault was that? I told you never to scare me," I grumbled. "You know how important you are to me..."

"Yeah, I know. Others might know too as well. You literally almost kissed me there," I don't know if Blu is complaining or what.

"But I didn't. I can distract everyone from that. Don't worry," I cannot help but feel like he is blaming for showing concern for him.

"I'm not worried about that. I know you'll protect our relationship. I'm worried that you are worrying too much about me. I can take care of myself. I was blindsided by that explosion. I didn't mean to faint. It's no one's fault really. I need you to trust me to handle myself."

I sighed. "Okay. No more worrying,"

"No more unnecessary worrying." Blu amended my words. "Although this situation with AnneMarie is indeed worrying."

"Don't worry about it. We can get out of this," I said.

"We will sure try. But if we can't solve this on our own, I'm thinking of approaching the adults," Blu said. "Tell Mr.Akage, Tito Dennis and Tita Patty what is going on. I think they need to know."

"But we agreed with AnneMarie holding all the photos and blackmail evidences, it will be her words against mine," I reminded him.

"True. Still..." Blu winced. "I think she thinks this through. AnneMarie is quite clever you know. She is not just book smart, she is meticulous as well."

"That I believe. Also, she is evil," I said.

"She is not," Blu protested that. I looked at him. "She is blackmailing me. She is evil to me,"

"And she saved me a lot of times," Blu said. "You have no idea what crippling shyness could do to someone. I have that. AnneMarie befriended me when everyone looked at me funny that first time I transfered in her a school. Everyone is wary of the new kid who is quiet, awkward and weird. But not her. She came to me and made me smile. She made school bearable and I since anticipate coming to school. If not for her, I might ended up rejecting school and never going,"

"She loves you that's why she is nice to you. She is like a sociopath," I said.

Blu glared at me. "Badmouthing her won't change anything. Like I said, we have seven years together. AnneMarie cares about me. You care about me. I care for the two of you. I'm going to straighten this up," he sounded determined.

"Fine. We have a saying in our family, when all else fails, be an Akage. If you fail, that's when I made my move," I told Blu.

"You won't hurt my friend, right?" He gave me a suspicious look.

I shrugged, "It will all depends on you and her. Depends on what will happen,"

"If you hurt AnneMarie, I will hurt you, Robin. And I will tell her the vice versa. I said let me handle this," Blu continued to glare at me.
