Chapter 27
Boomer sat on the couch, reading some story on his laptop. Butch and Brick arguing about who should do the dishes. He sighed and glance back then back to the laptop, and he noticed an email popped up. Boomer chewed on the inside of his cheek and clicked on the email. He quickly read through it and saw the case of Justin.
Boomer took in a sharp breath and slammed the laptop closed. Running to his room, he changed into a pair of jeans and plain t-shirt. He shoved his laptop in his bag, walking out to the kitchen and tossing some snacks in his bag then grabbing the keys. Placing the keys in his mouth he put his shoes on.
"What are you doing?" Butch asked.
"Going on a trip." Boomer said as he spit out the keys.
"Why?" Brick asked.
"Just wanna see the old cabin." Boomer replied.
He grabbed a jacket, since it is going to be chilly tomorrow with snow. He wrapped a scarf around his neck and quickly snatch his phone, texting Bubbles.
"Well don't die out on the road. They say a freak snow storm is coming." Brick said as he sat on the couch.
"Also, tell me if there's anything in the mail!" Butch yelled.
"The renter still hasn't got back to you?" Boomer asked.
"Well I imagine there staring at my phone number getting to nervous to call, cause I'm so handsome and awesome." Butch said.
Brick rolled his eyes, "Or they don't want some weirdo in their apartment."
"Boomer, Brick picking fun at me!" Butch yelled.
"Boomer, Butch is being full headed again!"
Boomer groaned, "I'm scared once I'll you guys will rip off each other's head."
Brick snorted, "Butch is to weak for that."
"Ha! All you have to say is Buttercup's name and he'll turn into a puppy." Boomer said.
"And maybe call her and try to flirt with her." Brick said.
"And fail terrible!" Boomer and Brick said together.
"You know what! I'm tired of being abused around here," Butch said as he tossed his hands up. "I'm going to my bedroom to listen to 2000 music and eating this popcorn!"
Butch stomped to his bedroom and Spicegirls played loudly. Brick sighed and turned on the tv and stared at the screen. Boomer noticed for the past couple of weeks, ever since he claimed to be dating this girl name Blossom. He's been out of it. Boomer also noticed that Brick would flinch anytime their cop buddies cane over, and had a protective look in his eyes.
"Be safe, yeah?" Brick said. "Sometimes visiting old places brings out the worst in us."
"Sure." Boomer replied and walked outside.
He climbed in the car and drove to Bubbles, taking in deep breaths. He felt the item poking against his stomach and glance done, making sure the box is safe. He pulled up and honked, Bubbles came out glaring. He smiled and she climbed in, tossing her bag in the back.
"Did you have to blow the horn?" She asked.
"Yes. It's to cold to go outside." Boomer said.
"Poor baby." Bubbles said.
Boomer smirked and drove away, he listened to Bubbles about her week so far. He added some comments and told her about Butch freaking out when Buttercup kissed him. Bubbles laughed and wanted the full story. She stared at him and he keep his eyes on the road, trying not to laugh.
"Well Butch came home screaming that he finally kissed a girl. As usual, we teased him and I swear to you! Butch played Love on Top all night. On repeat." Boomer said.
"Oh my gosh!" She said and started to laugh some more.
Boomer finally pulled up to the cabin and turned off the car. He unbuckled his seatbelt but stared at the steering wheel. Heavy guilt placed on his heart as he looked at the house. Boomer blinked slowly and felt Bubbles grab his hand.
He looked over and her eyes danced with happiness. Boomer pushed down the guilt and grabbed his and her bag. They got out of the car and walked inside the cabin. Boomer look down the hall and flinched, seeing some of their old toys atill laid out on the floor. He out the bags on the table and smiled at Bubbles.
"Ready for the weekend?" He asked.
"Of course! I've never seen snow before." Bubbles said.
"Are you kidding me? It's the best thing ever! I promise you, you'll feel like a kid all over again." He said.
She smiled, "Well I'm going to use the bathroom."
Boomer nodded. He pointed to the master bedroom, once she left, Boomer look down the hallway again. He took in a deep breath and walk down, ready to see their old bedroom.
He opened the door and a rush of cold went over him. He flipped the switch and the light brighten up the gloomy room. A bunk bed placed in one side and a toy box in the middle of the room. Cars spread around, Power Rangers figures and their old gaming system sat on the desk. Boomer leaned against the door frame and tried to calm his pulse but nothing worked.
He walk inside and look at his bed. The bottom one, cause he was scared of heights and falling off the top bunk. He laughed as he pulled back his blanket, remebering all the toys he would stash under there. Boomer look on the walls and posters covered them but one family photo under the clock. He stared at it and prayed for it to fall off and break.
Boomer doesn't want to see his old family, because he knew they were a family.
"Are you okay?" Bubbles asked.
Boomer jumped, "Yup! Just looking at the old room."
"I made some hot cocoa. Come on." She said as she held out her hand.
Boomer smiled and nodded. He grab her hand and followed her, shutting the light off and closing the door. Bubbles sat him in the chair and brought him his cup. She played some music from her phone and sat next to him and they talked.
Boomer told her old childhood stories; like how when Butch first rode a bike he ran over Brick or when Boomer thought the bed was too hot he would throw cups of water on the bed. Even their singing competitions in the middle of the night, waking up their parents and getting grounded. Bubbles even traded some of hers, such as going to stores at midnight with her mom and buying fruit smelling markers or making forts to watch movies with her friends.
They talked til the sun went down and even talked some more when Boomer made dinner. They ate dinner and Boomer had Bubbles closed her eyes.
"Why?" Bubbles asked.
"It's a suprise." Boomer said.
He grabbed the cake and placed it in front of her. Boomer grabbed the box and got down on one knee.
"Alright, open your eyes." Boomer whispered.
Bubbles opened her eyes and a blue cake sat in front of her. Waves frosted designs but she noticed the words. Look to your left. Her face turn bright red and looked at Boomer.
He smiled, "Bubbles. I'm crazy about you and I wanna spend the rest of my life with you. So, will you marry me?"
Bubbles covered her mouth and smiled. She smiled til her cheeks hurt, then she nodded.
"Yes."
