It was after school and Blizzard stood on the steps watching
Lunarstar with her friends talking, even Raspberry was with them.
Blizzard left the school and walked alone in a different direction.
He had been watching Lunarstar all day, in class and lunch.
"I must be sick or something. Maybe she's got some sort
of spell on me?" Blizzard thought, trying to figure out
what was wrong with him.
He walked through the community of houses and into the forest.
He was anxious to get back and find Lunarstar, hoping Blueberry
wasn't with her.
"He's getting a bit close to her lately," Blizzard
thought, "I got to do something." He stopped just short
of his shack, "What a minute. Why do I even care? I got
to find out what she did to me."
Blizzard continued walking and went into the shack, he dropped
his school bag on the floor and hurried outside. He walked through
the forest again and into the community of houses.
He had just turned the corner when he saw Lunarstar running
into the park.
He ran after her but stopped suddenly when he saw Blueberry approaching
her with a frisbee.
Lunarstar smiled and followed him to a clearing. Blizzard followed
them and hid behind the bushes. He ducked low to the grass and
watched them from a distance. Lunarstar stood at one end while
Blueberry stood at the other end. Blizzard watched as Blueberry
threw the frisbee. Lunarstar caught is and threw it back. Blizzard
watched her smile and her purple hair shining in the sunlight.
Her white coat almost seemed blinding to his eyes.
"Spying again?" a voice suddenly said.
Blizzard jumped, he didn't expect anyone to find him. He sat
up and turned to find Raspberry behind him smiling.
"No, now get lost," Blizzard told her.
Raspberry sat next to him and looked at Lunarstar, "Go play
with her."
"No, now go away," Blizzard replied and continued to
watch Lunarstar.
Raspberry looked at him curiously, then at Lunarstar.
"Your just shy," Raspberry said after a moment of silence.
Blizzard looked at her angrily, "No I'm not."
"Just admit you love, Lunarstar," Raspberry told him.
Blizzard looked at her curiously, "Love?"
"Sure. You're always fallowing her, watching her. Getting
mad at Blueberry and I know you must think about her a lot,"
Raspberry stood up smiling at him, "You love Lunarstar."
"Shut up and...bug out," Blizzard told her, feeling
a bit embarrassed.
"Awww, Blizzard loves Lunarstar!" Raspberry teased.
Blizzard stood up and looked at her angrily but Raspberry just
repeated it.
"Blizzard loves Lunarstar!" Raspberry repeated.
Blizzard turned and ran from Raspberry, not caring where he
was going, as long as he was far from her. He ended up at the
school but it was closed, all he could do was sit at the steps.
He thought about what Raspberry said and why he felt embarrassed.
"Love?" He asked himself, "What's love?"
He had never heard the word before or heard his father ever mention
it.
He stood up and walked back to his shack thinking about the word
'love' He remembered when he was at the fair that night and ran
into Starfire. He told him 'I won't tell you. I love my niece
to much to see anything happen to her' Blizzard had not thought
about what Starfire said till just now.
"That word seems very important to everyone," Blizzard
muttered.
He entered the forest and walked to his shack, then he sat at
the cliff staring at the ocean waves.
"I must know what that word means," Blizzard thought. |
