Chapter 3
Disclaimer: I repeat, the only thing I own in this story is José and his family.
Bubbles had one hell of a time explaining everything that had happened to her sisters and their dad when she got home. She told them all about how she had been depressed because she didn't have someone special in her life like her sisters did. Blossom and Buttercup realized that not having someone special was what Bubbles meant when she said she was lonely and slapped themselves on the forehead for not realizing it sooner. Professor Utonium told Bubbles that she should invite José over for dinner the next day. Bubbles happily agreed and went to call José on the phone before she realized she didn't have his number. She flew back to José's apartment and invited him to dinner. When he suggested that she invite his whole family over, Bubbles happily agreed. She called the Professor on the phone and asked him if it was alright that all of José's family came over for dinner. The Professor agreed and Bubbles jumped up and down with excitement. Before she left she asked José for his number and programmed it into her cell phone.
The next day was a Saturday and the girls didn't have school. Blossom and Dexter were going to some sort of scientific invention convention and Buttercup was visiting Junior and his parents at the center of the Earth. Bubbles pretty much had the day to herself and decided she would go out and buy a new dress for dinner that night. She knew that she really didn't need to. Even if José could see, he would have thought she was beautiful regardless. She wanted a nice dress to impress his family. She asked the Professor for some money so she could buy a dinner dress and he happily agreed. Bubbles kissed her father on the cheek and ran out of the house towards the city.
As Bubbles passed the City Bank on her way to the dress shop, she noticed José's parents inside, making a deposit or something. She waved at them hoping to get their attention. Mrs. Lopez noticed Bubbles through the glass and waved back at her. Just as Bubbles was starting to walk away from the bank, she heard a scream. She immediately turned back and saw Mrs. Lopez with her hands over her mouth. Bubbles followed Mrs. Lopez's gaze and saw that a man in a ski mask had one arm around Mr. Lopez and he was holding a gun to his head. Bubbles noticed about five or six more men ordering the tellers to hand over all the cash. Bubbles shook her head at the sight.
“They never learn, do they,” Bubbles said as she lazily strolled into the bank. The thieves all turned towards the entrance, wondering who in the world would be stupid enough to walk into a bank when a robbery was going on. When they saw it was a Powerpuff Girl, they freaked out.
“St...stop right there. We'll shoot this man if you don't stay away,” the leader of the thieves said nervously. Before he could make a move, Bubbles took him out with a single punch to the head while simultaneously taking the gun out of his hands. Bubbles pushed Mr. Lopez towards Mrs. Lopez and then focused her attention on the other thieves. She made quick work of them, disabling them all before they could fire off a single shot.
Several minutes later the police arrived and apprehended all the criminals. They questioned Bubbles, not that they needed to, and then left to process the thieves at the police station. When Bubbles was done with the police, she went to check on Mr. Lopez. He was seated on a chair and was visibly shaking while Mrs. Lopez tried to comfort him.
“Are you alright, Mr. Lopez?” Bubbles asked in a concerned voice.
“I'm fine, Bubbles. Just a little shaken up, that's all.”
“I'm glad you're okay,” Bubbles said with a smile.
“Yes. I am as well, honey. I was so scared I was gonna lose you,” Mrs. Lopez said tearing up.
“Calm down, dear. Bubbles was here to save us so everything is okay.”
“I'm just glad to help,” Bubbles said. “Um...are you...still going to be able to make it to dinner? I don't mean to sound insensitive.”
“It's perfectly understandable, dear. You must have cooked to feed a small army. We'll still be there. Don't worry,” Mrs. Lopez said.
“Great! I'll see you then,” Bubbles said as she left the bank.
Bubbles arrived at the dress shop about fifteen minutes later and she was met by a salesgirl whom she and her sisters had saved from a serial rapist not more than a few weeks ago. She hugged Bubbles like she was a long lost family member and kept thanking her. Bubbles just giggled and said it was alright. After calming down, the salesgirl finally asked Bubbles what she was in the store for. Bubbles told her she needed a dress for a dinner date. The salesgirl's eyes lit up and cried out with joy to Bubbles that dinner dresses were her specialty. She dragged Bubbles to a rack of dresses and started tearing through them madly. She pulled out a sexy black dinner dress. There was a slit down the side and the bottom of the dress would stop just above the knees. It would show a moderate amount of cleavage and was held on the body by spaghetti straps. Bubbles eyes went wide when she saw the dress. She had never even thought of wearing something so suggestive before.
“Umm...it's a family dinner. I don't think that would be appropriate,” Bubbles said.
“Girl, I'm gonna pay for this myself. It's the least I can do. You're getting this one and I'll get you a dinner dress for your family dinner to,” the salesgirl, Megan, said.
“I couldn't accept that,” Bubbles said.
“Girl, just for once, let one of us citizens thank you properly. I don't really mind. I've got money left over from my birthday and I don't mind spending it on the person that saved me,” Megan said with a smile.
“Th...thank you.”
“Don't mention it, girl,” Megan said as she handed Bubbles the sexy dinner dress and started to look for one appropriate for a family dinner. She pulled out a much simpler blue one that went down to her ankles and didn't reveal much of anything.
“How's this?” Megan asked.
“It'll do just fine.”
“Great! Bring the other dress to the counter so I can ring them up.”
Megan payed for the dresses she picked out for Bubbles and told her to drop by every once in a while to say hi. Bubbles promised she would and left the dress shop.
After she went back home, she saw that no one was there. She went upstairs and hid her dresses underneath her bed. She went back downstairs to her surprise, found José sitting down on the couch.
“José?! What are you doing here?”
“I wanted to surprise you. I had a cab driver bring me here. It's amazing that everyone knows where you live when you're famous,” José said with a smile.
“It's just...I didn't expect you to be here so early.”
“Well, I wanted to get to know my way around your house. I mean, I do expect to be over here a lot.”
Bubbles blushed and told him she'd take him on a tour. José smiled and stood up. Bubbles took him by the arm and led him over every inch of the house. She showed him where all the bathrooms and bedrooms where as well as the Professor's lab. She only went as far as the simulation room where they trained though.
“Is that all there is to the lab? I mean, you're dad is a famous scientist.”
“Well, there is, but we're really not supposed to go in there by ourselves. Not that there's anything in there that can hurt us, but he has some very important experiments in there,” Bubbles replied.
“Oh. Well, we should leave then,” José said.
“I said we're not supposed to go in there. Doesn't mean we're not,” Bubbles said with a smirk.
“You're evil, you know that don't you?”
Bubbles just smiled and laughed maniacally. She grabbed José by the hand and led him into the part of the lab that contained all of the Professor's experiments. Most of them involved new chemicals the Professor was creating. These chemicals all involved something simple, though, like formulas ranging from food preservatives to shampoo and conditioners. Nothing there was nearly as potent or dangerous as Chemical X.
“It's nothing really dangerous in here, at the moment. Just normal chemicals that will help people improve their everyday lives and stuff like that.”
“Cool. Can you walk me around so I know what to avoid?” José asked.
Bubbles responded by taking his hand and leading him around the lab. She eventually came to the case that held Chemical X.
“This is the case that holds Chemical X, you know, the chemical that gave me and my sisters our powers.”
“Really? Could it restore eyesight,” José asked jokingly.
“José!!! You can't be serious?!”
“Relax, Bubbles. I was only joking.”
“You had me worried for a second there,” Bubbles said. She turned around to continue touring the lab but she bumped into a counter. It threw her off balance and she started to fall backwards. José didn't know she was falling so when she hit him, he started falling backwards too. They both fell into the case containing the vial of Chemical X. It broke open and the vial came flying out. At the same time the vial came flying out, José's sunglasses flew off of his face and went in the same direction as the vial. The sunglasses fell on the floor and the vial broke over them. Chemical X poured over the lenses and covered them completely.
“Oh no! I've gotta clean this up,” Bubbles said as she ran frantically around the lab. She picked up José's sunglasses and cleaned them off. She handed them to José and then she cleaned up the Chemical X that was on the floor. She threw the special cloth she used to clean it up and the broken glass in the hazardous waste bin and quickly found another vial and filled it with Chemical X from a spare container in the lab.
“Hopefully my dad won't notice,” Bubbles said as she sighed in relief.
“Bubbles? What are you wearing, if I may ask?” José asked.
“I'm wearing a blue dress and black dress shoes. Why do you ask?”
“I CAN SEE!!!” José cried out out.
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“Bubbles! I can see you! I can see what you're wearing! Watch,” José said as he took off his sunglasses.
“I can't see now,” José said. Then he put them back on. “Now I can see.”
“Oh my God! The Chemical X must have done something to your sunglasses!”
“It's great! It's so great! I can see! I can see!”
“That's wonderful, José! Just remember, we can't tell anyone else that you can see. At least not my family or anyone in Townsville. I think it'd be alright to tell your family as long as they don't tell anyone else.”
“You have my word, Bubbles! How can I ever repay you for this? If I would have never met you, I would have never been able to see again! Thank you,” José said. He put his hands on the sides of Bubbles's head and kissed her deeply.
Bubbles was surprised at first but she closed her eyes and got into the kiss herself. She put her arms around José's neck and pulled herself close to him. After a few moments, Bubbles felt José's tongue invade her mouth. Her eyes shot open again at the new sensation and she pushed herself away from him.
“Bubbles? Did I do something wrong?” José asked.
“N...no. I...I've never...kissed anyone...like that...before,” Bubbles stuttered. She was bright red and her breathing was a little faster than it normally was.
“I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you,” José said. He felt terrible at what he'd done.
“No. Don't be sorry, José. I...I liked it.”
“What? Really?”
“Yes...”
“Oh,” José said as he blushed himself. “We should probably go back upstairs.”
“Yeah.”
Bubbles and José went back into the living room, José taking in the sights of Bubbles's house all the way. It was like he had just been born and he was seeing everything for the first time. They made way their way to the couch and sat down next to each other.
“Do you want to watch TV?” Bubbles asked.
“No. Not yet anyway. I'd much rather look at you. You know, you don't look like I thought you would,” José said.
“I...don't?” Bubbles asked with a hint of disappointment in her voice.
“No, you don't,” José said as he leaned towards Bubbles. He leaned in far enough so he could whisper into her ear. “You look even more beautiful than I imagined.”
Bubbles blushed profusely and in her stuttering had somehow managed to get a thank you out. José chuckled at his girlfriend's nervousness.
“Bubbles? Would it be too much trouble...if I asked you if I could kiss you again?”
“N...no. You...can kiss me...if you want.”
José smiled and leaned towards Bubbles. He had taken his sunglasses off and set them on the coffee table in front of the couch. He didn't need to see to know how to kiss his girlfriend. He put put his hands behind Bubbles's head and pulled her into him. He pressed his lips against hers and soon the both of them were into the kiss. José slipped his tongue inside of Bubbles's mouth but she did not pull away. Instead, Bubbles's slipped her own tongue inside of José's mouth and their tongues danced together. They stayed like that for a while and eventually Bubbles's fell back on the couch and brought José down with her. They kept on going.
After a while, the two of them broke apart, a small trail of saliva linking their mouths together. Bubbles stared deeply into José's eyes. For the first time, she noticed that they didn't look like the eyes of a blind person. They weren't cloudy or anything like that. They looked normal.
“Bubbles?”
“Yes, José?”
“I know I've only known you for a few days now, but I have to honestly say, I think I'm falling in love with you.”
For once, Bubbles did not blush. She just kept staring into the eyes of her boyfriend.
“I know how you feel. I think...no...I know I'm falling in love with you, José. I...love you,” Bubbles said with the happiest smile she ever had on her face.
“I love you to, my Powerpuff,” José said with a smile of his own. He leaned down and started to passionately kiss Bubbles again.
After a few moments, José broke the kiss again. Before Bubbles could protest, she felt José's mouth on her neck. She audibly gasped when she felt a gentle sucking motion and José's tongue against her bare skin. Her pulse started to race and all the blood in her body seemed to go to her face.
“José...don't...please don't...stop,” Bubbles called out slowly. José stopped immediately.
“No! I said don't stop,” Bubbles called out a bit more forcefully than she had meant.
“Yes ma'am,” José said as he continued.
José's progressively got lower and would have gone farther but suddenly the two of them heard the doorknob to the front door turning. They immediately broke apart and sat up on the couch. They straightened themselves out as best they could. Bubbles handed José his sunglasses and he put them on. Bubbles turned the TV on to a random channel and silently thanked God it was a romance movie playing. At least whoever it was that was home would find it believable. As it turned out, it was the Professor and Ms. Keane coming in the door. They were laughing at some joke the Professor had made outside. The Professor noticed his daughter sitting on the couch with a young Hispanic boy.
“Hello, Bubbles. Who's your friend?” Professor Utonium asked.
“Hi, dad. This is my boyfriend, José Lopez. He came early so we could hangout before dinner and get familiar with the house.”
“How do you do, José?” Professor Utonium said extending his hand. Even though he had his sunglasses on, José kept on the illusion that he was blind with them on. When Professor Utonium saw that José made no move to grab his hand, he raised an eyebrow.
“You know, son, when someone extends their hand, it usually means they want to shake their hand.”
“You'll have to forgive me, sir. I didn't know you wanted to shake my hand. I'm blind, you see,” José said, finally pretending to feel around in the air for Professor Utonium's hand. He finally grabbed it and shook it firmly.
“Oh! Forgive me. I didn't realize,” the Professor said apologetically.
“It's okay. Most people just think I wear the sunglasses because they look cool,” José replied. He let go of the Professor's hand. “Who is your lady friend, Professor?”
“How did you know I had a lady friend?”
“My sense of smell, Professor. As you know, when someone loses one of their senses, the others compensate. I can smell perfume... Diamonds from Elizabeth Taylor if my nose is serving me correctly.”
“That's very good, young man. Yes, I'm the Professor's lady friend. My name is Nancy Keane. You can call me Ms. Keane if you want,” Ms. Keane said as she grabbed José's hand and shook it.
“Nice to meet you, Ms. Keane. Bubbles told me a lot about you. You were her kindergarten teacher, right?”
“Yes, I was. It just seems like yesterday those girls first walked into my classroom. Good times, they were. Good times,” Ms. Keane said with a smile.
“Well, if you'll excuse us, we're going to start preparing dinner. You two occupy yourselves with the television while you wait,” Professor Utonium said as he and Ms. Keane went into the kitchen.
A little while later, Blossom and Buttercup came home from their respective dates with their boyfriends. Bubbles greeted them and introduced José. Both sisters immediately liked him, especially Buttercup when José mentioned that he regularly practiced Jeet Kune Do, the fighting style created by Bruce Lee, with the help of a special instructor that worked with blind students.
After introductions, Blossom and Buttercup started to go upstairs. Before Buttercup went up the stairs, she called Bubbles over to her.
“What is it, Buttercup?”
“Bubbles...do you really love this guy?”
“Y...yes. Of course I do. Why do you ask?”
“Because I would have pounded him if you didn't since he made that hickey on your neck,” Buttercup said with a smile. Bubbles blushed and looked down at the floor.
“Don't worry, sis. I'm not gonna say anything. Still, I'd let your hair down for dinner so you can hide it.”
Bubbles looked back up, smiled, and said, “Thanks, Buttercup.”
Well Bubbles and José are certainly getting a lot closer physically and emotionally aren't they? If not the next chapter, then the chapter after that will be when they finally make love. Anyways, I hope you've enjoyed the story so far. Please remember to review. I enjoy the constructive criticism.
