Boomer walked down the path of the small childrens park, his hands buried deep in his pockets. As he passed by, a few parents grabbed their children, casting him an evil fearful look before walking off. Boomer tried not to notice as kids spotting him started crying and screaming in fear. He was forced to notice though, when the park was completely isolated.

Boomer sighed and walked over to a bench seat, staring out at the desolate playground. His brothers and him had never played on one, especially not for the fun of it. Unfortunately, he thought he was the only one who felt that.

Boomer placed his head in his hands, running his fingertips through his hair. Suddenly a sweet tune filled the air, making his head shoot up. He looked around, but the only sign of another person was the soft humming tune. Boomer, curious, got up and headed towards the sound, continuing quietly.

Finally, he reached a sort of hill where he could see a few stray colorful circles floating in the air. He'd seen some kids playing with them, but none resembled those which this person was blowing. They were long and glistened colorfully in the light.

Boomer quietly crept up the side of the hill and peaked his head over. The girl's back was too him, swaying to the Hum of her own sweet voice. Her long blonde pigtails were swaying opposite of her, and her arms swayed slightly as if to dance. Boomer watched as she dipped a small stick in a jar, pulling it out dripping. She turned slightly and pursed her lips delicately, placing the wand before her. Gently she blew out, letting a long twisting cylinder float out. She pulled. It down, watching as the cylinder floated away.

Suddenly, Boomer wondered why she was alone when she was clearly so talented.

His feet moved on their own as he climbed over the hill towards the girl. A twig snapped beneath his foot, startling the girl to look at him. They both froze upon seeing the other, Boomer finally recognizing her dollish complexion and the girl recognizing his face.

"Bubbles?" Boomer gasped.

"Boomer! w-what are you doing here?" Bubbles stammered, her cheeks going red. Boomer mimicked her appearance and looked down, rubbing his foot into the dirt.

"I, Uh, heard you singing," he managed quietly, silently hearing Bricks voice in his head yelling at him for being so sheepish.

"Oh," Bubbles said quietly, hearing her own leaders voice telling her to fight. Boomer quickly nodded and turned to leave, feeling ready to explode. Bubbles looked down at the bubble wand, butting her lip. "Boomer, wait!" She called out, making the Rowdyruff stop. She bit harder and sucked in a nervous breath. "Do you, um, want to join me?"

For a moment everything was silent, all Boomer could hear was the fast pound of his own traitorous heart. Soon to join it was his feet as he turned around and walked back to her. He could see that Bubbles was obviously nervous, trying her hardest not to show it before her counterpart. That made his mouth smile.

"Sure, I'd love to," he said. Bubbles managed her own nervous smile and they both sat down, awkwardly starting conversation.

"So, why are you here?" Bubbles asked, trying not to seem rude. Boomer didn't take offense to this, but just shrugged.

"I can only handle Brick's blabbering for so long I guess," he shrugged, glancing down at her. "What about you? Don't you have some civilians to save?"

"Even heroes need their days off," Bubbles replied, shrugging her shoulders sheepishly.

"Yeah, but why are you up here alone. Doesn't like, everyone love you?" Boomer asked, looking up at the blue sky. He couldn't help but notice that it almost perfectly resembled the beautiful clear color of his counterparts eyes. He shook his head quickly, dismissing the odd thought.

"I suppose," Bubbles said, much too quiet for Boomer not to notice. He turned and looked at her, slightly surprised to see her head buried in her hands.

"Hey, I didn't mean to upset you. here, I'll go," Bpomer said, getting up. He was stopped however when a small hand gripped his shirt. He looked down to see Bubbles staring up at him with watery eyes.

"No, please don't," she said in a voice just short of a whisper. Boomer awkwardly say back in the seat, watching Bubbles' hand gripping a chunk of his shirt. As soon as she was sure he wasn't going to live, she released him and carefully dabbed her eyes to not leave tear tracks. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be so," she let her sentence drop, staring down at her hands.

Boomer looked at his counterpart, feeling a very unfamiliar sensation in his chest. It actually hurt him to see his counterpart in such obvious pain. He felt like he was in pain. He craved to see her angelic smile that typically graced her features. Hed never seen her cry, maybe fake cry, but never actual tears.

"I-it's alright," he said slowly, lifting his hand shakily. Quickly he grabbed her hand and pulled it away from her face, clutching it tightly within his. She sniffed in confusion and looked at him, her eyes wide. Boomer managed a small nervous smile which Bubbles mimicked. Suddenly he felts slight pressure in his hand and saw her gripping him back.

"H-have you ever blown a bubble?" Bubbles asked quietly, her eyes exposing shy excitement.

"Never," Boomer followed. Bubbles giggled sheepishly, making Boomer laugh in turn. She reached over and grabbed her case of bubbles. She released Boomer's hand to get out the want and dunk it in. Boomer watched shyly as her hand shook. He took his arm and wrapped it around her shoulders, hugging her to him. He didn't even feel her stiffen as she blew a ring of bubbles, leaning on his chest as they spun through the air. Boomer smiled as he watched the bubbles, his Bubbles.

First one done! Hooray! So, the deal was supposed to be that Taka chan did not show up to meet bubbles and she got sad. Boomer just happened to be there and things happened. I do have to say that boomubbles is my second favorite, next to Blossick because they are both just so sweet. I can feel for boomer, trying to fit in with people who are above him while Bubbles is more of a free spirit. Hope you guys liked it! Bye~
