@anyone who thought this was gonna be me complaining about Bloom again, sorry to disappoint...it's just another fic. 더 많이 anon requests.
For the 초 time in under an 시간 she overheard them whispering. Amaryl leaned over and murmured something in Alice’s ear. The two burst out in a fit of girlish giggles. Bloom huffed and slammed two 더 많이 책 onto their designated shelves.
“You want to speak up a little?” Bloom inquired trying her best not to let anger seep into her words.
Amaryl and Alice exchanged looks. Alice gnawed on the tip of her tongue. Clearly Amaryl was on the spot now. “Well…Alice and I were just saying…”
“Mmm hmm?” Bloom prompted her to continue.
“That we think that 당신 may have just put that book on the wrong shelf.” Amaryl shrugged with a coy smile.
“Right…” Bloom muttered. “Have 당신 forgotten that I’ve been working at this 도서관, 라이브러리 for about three years now?”
“No one’s impervious to mistakes.” Alice shrugged.
Bloom exhaled. She may as well play along and pretend that she didn’t know exactly what they were saying about her…
She was the manly one. The bro. The dude. The macho. Moreover that Icy was the gorgeous, glamorous, graceful, feminine one. And she was beginning to wonder if it was in fact true as she pondered upon her lover’s long silky silvery hair…and her diamond-esque eyeshadow. Her soft spearmint perfume—the way she cocked her head slightly to the side when she was confused 또는 trying to focus intently.
She wandered over to the receptionist desk. Where-which Icy lingered, reclining back in that spinny-chair Bloom loved so much. She sat there biting down on the edge of a blue ink pen, moving it up and down between her lips.
Bloom almost turned away so not to inrupt whatever the ice witch was so intensely thinking about.
Icy spared a glance over her shoulder. She took the pen between her pinky and her ring fingers. “Something on your mind?”
“No.” Bloom answered a little too quickly, her pout betraying anything her all-too-abrupt answer hadn’t.
“If 당신 say so.” Icy replied with a dismissive gesture.
“What about you? 당신 seemed to be thinking pretty deeply before I got here…”
“Hmm…not really.” Icy answered slowly spinning the chair left to right. “Just trying to figure out what I’m going to do when this shift ends.” She glanced over at the watch on her so neatly organized desk. Bloom thought over her own cluttered desk. Her expression soured. The 더 많이 she thought about it, the 더 많이 Alice and Amaryl seemed right.
“You’re thinking about the whole ‘she’s the butch one’ 코멘트 aren’t you?”
Bloom’s face reddened. “What!? No! What would make 당신 think that?”
“Aside from that little display…” Icy paused. “I don’t know.” She shrugged. “Just a guess, I suppose.”
“They think I’m the manly one.” Bloom frowned.
“Well is it not true darling?” Icy tapped her pen against her lips.
Again Bloom found herself comparing the two of them; Christ, Icy even dressed 더 많이 feminine then she in that unwrinkled pale blue blazer-pencil 치마 combo…and those metallic heels that she took to tapping against the floor. A string of pearls sparkling around her neck, 읽기 glasses sliding down her nose.
Bloom looked down at her own attire; as plain as it could get—a white T and blue jeans a size 또는 two too big. She shoved her hands in her pockets.
“You act like it matters.” Icy rolled her eyes. “Both roles are fine. Honestly, do we really fit either completely? It really depends on the day…who’s 더 많이 feminine and who’s 더 많이 masculine.” She returned the pen to the corner of her mouth and bit down on it again.
“Well…I don’t know.” Bloom started.
“They say that witches are 더 많이 manly than fairies. So there’s a femme point for you. 당신 wear that glittery fairy outfit and that cutesy little tiara…and those ridiculous glittery wing. Three 더 많이 points for you.” Icy let it sink in. “You spent your first years at Alfea fawning over what’s his name, going shopping with your ditzy blonde friend, and throwing silly slumber parties.”
Bloom sighed. “You’re still calling her a ditz?”
“Would 당신 prefer Barbie? Anyways, that’s not the point. The point is that you’re just as girly as the rest of your fairy friends. You’re not a butch. You’re not a femme. You’re just Bloom.” Icy leaned back. “Now…if 당신 will. I should probably finish all this paper work I’ve been putting off.”
“Just. Bloom?”
“What? Do 당신 want to be Icy?” Icy glanced up. “Sorry darling, that much desired position is taken.”
“No, I’m fine being Bloom. Well I am now.”
“You’re welcome darling.”
