//------------------------------// // Home Visit // Story: Sweet Affection: Young Love // by Masterob //------------------------------// The following day at school, Sweetie Belle was sitting at her desk, mindlessly doodling on her notebook. A lot of it was just pictures of Rumble in various sports gear, including his new helmet, as a basketball player, hockey and anything else that came to the young girl’s mind. Nervous as she was at first, spending time with Rumble proved to be a very delightful experience. He was of course a very kind and well mannered boy, add to his good looks and Sweetie Belle couldn't help but be even more enamored with this boy. To the left of her was Scootaloo, the girl feeling much better after injuring herself the day prior. All she could think of was more activities the girls can try out in an effort to earn their marks. To the right was Apple Bloom, the farmer girl actually trying to get some schoolwork done. She could already tell her friends weren't really focusing on the subject. School was never for them, and while she wasn't exactly a bookworm, the fact that her teacher was dating her older brother did add a little extra pressure on her. "I will be coming by to collect your classwork in just a few minutes," the teacher Cheerilee said. "Please have your worksheets ready." "Sweet, this means class is almost over," Scootaloo said, rubbing her stomach. "And lunch is next." "What are they serving in the cafeteria?" Sweetie Belle asked. "Not sure, but I'm pretty hungry since breakfast was light for me this morning," Scootaloo said. "I woke up late so I had to rush out with nothing more than a protein bar." "You shouldn't be rushing anywhere, not after yer little accident yesterday," Apple Bloom said. "I didn't hurt myself that badly, it was just a little strain on my foot, that's all," Scootaloo insisted. "A little?" Apple Bloom sarcastically mused. "Yer lucky we ran into Rainbow Dash on the way to yer place. While she ain't no doctor, she's more than familiar with yer shennanigans." "Rainbow Dash encourages me to push my limits, I think she'd be happy to know that I'm ready to go back out there and do what I need to do," Scootaloo said. "Ahem..." Cheerilee said, getting the attention of the girls. "Unless you want to spend lunch in here with me, I suggest you focus on having your assignments ready by the end of class." "Yes teacher," Scootaloo and Apple Bloom said, the two girls focusing back on their work. Of course, also in this class was Rumble, the boy writing up a list of things he wanted to do once the school day was over. "Rumble," Cheerile said, getting his attention. "Yeah, teach?" Rumble asked. "It's great that you're so focused on your hobbies, but did you at least finish your work?" Cheerilee asked. "Oh yeah, I finished a couple of minutes ago," Rumble said, handing her the sheet. "Hm...looks up to par, alright, you may resume what you were doing," Cheerilee said. So long as her students did their work, she did not mind what they did with their extra time. Come the end of class, everyone made their way to the cafeteria, some faster than others. The Crusaders sat at a table together as per normal, Scootaloo eagerly eyeing her food. "Mashed Potatoes with a side of macaroni, who says school lunch food isn't tasty?" Scootaloo said. Sweetie Belle picked at her food, "Eh, it could be better." "Take what you can get," Scootaloo said, then spotted a familiar boy. "Yo! Rumble!" "Huh?" Sweetie Belle saw the boy walking beside Tender Taps. "It is Rumble!" "Hey Rumble, it looks like Scootaloo is calling you," Tender Taps said, gesturing to the girl. "Oh yeah, wonder what she wants?" Rumble said. "Go sit with them, I'll meet up with you later," Tender Taps said, heading toward his seat. Rumble walked over to the Crusaders, taking a seat next to Sweetie Belle, the girl blushing a bit. "Hey Scootaloo, you called for me?" "Just wanted to invite you over for a bit, unless you got something else to do?" Scootaloo asked. "No, nothing right now," Rumble said. "I have been wondering how you were doing, especially after what happened with your foot." "Oh that? It's nothing," Scootaloo said. "It ain't nothing," Apple Bloom said. "Scootaloo could have really hurt herself." "Apple Bloom said something about you having a condition, is that right?" Rumble asked. "Can you really call it a 'condition'?" Scootaloo asked. "It just means that I have to be careful how much I run, that's all." "Stop underplaying it, you ain't fooling no one," Apple Bloom scolded, then focused on Rumble. "Scootaloo was born with weak muscles and bone structure. So she can't do too many extreme things." "That sounds kind of harsh," Rumble said. "Geez, way to make things all dramatic like. Yeah my bones are a little weak but I can handle it," Scootaloo insisted, much to her friend's annoyance. "But, to Apple Bloom's point, that is what's up. My body's not totally developed just right, but that doesn't mean I can't still do some awesome stuff. Like you've seen me own the ramps at a skatepark, right?" "Thankfully using a scooter don't hurt her as much, so long as she's careful," Apple Bloom said. "In hindsight, it makes sense that you're this sporty athletic girl, yet you're not on any sports teams," Rumble said. "Kind of sucks." "You get used to the idea," Scootaloo said. "Besides, it's not like you need to do sports to be a fan. You'll always see me cheering on Rainbow Dash during her track runs, or anything else she does." "Glad you can see the glass half full," Rumble said. "I really am sorry you got hurt because of me though." "She didn't get hurt because of you, Rumble," Apple Bloom said. "She got hurt because she's a dang imbecile half the time." "Cry me a river," Scootaloo said. "Uh, do you want me to deck you in the jaw?" Apple Bloom threatened, holding out her fist. "Please don't fight," Sweetie Belle said. "It's really not worth it." "Point is Rumble, I'm fine," Scootaloo said. "I just need a bit of rest and I'm back to normal." "You're a tough girl, Scootaloo," Rumble said. "And Apple Bloom, you're a great friend. It's nice seeing how much you care about Scootaloo." "She literally just threatened to punch me," Scootaloo said, earning a glare. "Scootaloo's dumb comments aside, I do value mah friends," Apple Bloom said. "So of course I'll look after them." "Do you have any friends to look after you, Rumble?" Sweetie Belle asked. "Eh, sort of," Rumble said. "Me and Tender Taps chat sometimes, and he's a nice guy, but he's not exactly my close buddy. I really don't hang out with a lot of my classmates, except maybe Dinky Do." "Dinky?" Apple Bloom asked. "Oh wait, ah know her. She's best buds with that cross-eyed girl who likes muffins." "Oh yeah, everyone calls that one 'Derpy'," Rumble said. "I don't think it's her name though. It sounds kind of weird." "Lots of people have weird names," Scootaloo said. "I wouldn't count it out." "Still, if you want, you could hang out with us again," Apple Bloom said. "Scootaloo still wants us to earn our Marks, if you want you can join us." "I'm really not worried about that," Rumble said. "Like I've said before, I don't want to be put in a box. I'm not worried about a mark, I know what I want in life." "You're really confident, aren't you Rumble?" Sweetie Belle asked. "That's really cool." "Glad you think so," Rumble said. "Hey if you girls want, you can come to my house, I got some ideas for some cool activities we can do. Only if you're up for it." "We'd love to!" Sweetie Belle excitedly stated, before reeling back. "Well, if it's okay with the girls at least." "Sure, ah don't mind," Apple Bloom said. "Yeah, curious to see what your place is like," Scootaloo said. "I bet it's super awesome." "Alright, I'll meet you girls after school then," Rumble said. "I hope you enjoy your visit at my place." "Ah think we will," Apple Bloom said. "Sweet," Rumble said. "I really hope I look cool." Later on, Rumble waited outside the school for the trio of Crusaders. The boy was still a bit nervous but tried to maintain a confident front. He was determined to impress these girls, and that's exactly what he was going to do. "Hey Rumble!" Came the voice of Diamond Tiara, the girl getting his attention. "Oh, Diamond Tiara, this is a surprise," Rumble said. "You look kind of nervous," Diamond Tiara said. "Who me? Pfft, no way," Rumble insisted. "What makes you say that?" "I'm good at reading people, even tough guys like you," Diamond Tiara said. "So...got something big planned?" "Just waiting for some friends, gonna invite them over to my house," Rumble said. "Oooh, how exciting," Diamond Tiara said. "You know, I've never been to your house, I bet it's nice." "Well...yeah," Rumble said. "It's alright." "I don't suppose you want me to come check it out sometime," Diamond Tiara said, leaning in with a flirty look in her eyes. "Do you, Rumble?" "Uh...I guess...if you want to," Rumble said. "Well I can't, I'm babysitting," Diamond Tiara said. "Which is strange since she's only a couple years younger than me, but money is money." "Aren't you rich?" Rumble asked. "I am, but daddy cut my allowance, he told me that I spend it on dumb stuff and that I take money for granted," Diamond Tiara said. "We're rich, we don't have to worry about money." "Your dad probably just wants you to be a hard worker, that's all," Rumble said. "Working for money makes it much more valuable." "Well this job isn't too bad, the girl I'm watching over absolutely adores me," Diamond Tiara said. "She says she wants to be just like me one day." "Well that's nice, who are you babysitting anyway?" Rumble asked. "A girl named Cozy Glow," Diamond Tiara asked. Rumble's eyes widened in surprise, "Cozy Glow? You mean that brat niece of Principal Cinch? The meanest principal in our school district?" "Oh she's not so bad, I hear she keeps Crytal Prep in check," Rumble said. "She runs that place like a ruthless tyrant!" Rumble said. "I'm so glad I don't go there." "Well I was close to going there, but daddy wanted me to be around the commoners," Diamond Tiara said. "What a waste." "Still, Cozy Glow? That's a bit of a 'yikes' to me," Rumble said. "Well I think she's adorable, so I'm good with it," Diamond Tiara said. "Getting in good with Principal Cinch is a bonus too, maybe it will convince my daddy to send me to Crytal Prep instead." "You're out of your mind if you think that's a good idea," Rumble said. "Oh to be so simple minded, kind of cute on you," Diamond Tiara teased before leaving. "See you later, Rumble." "What a weirdo," Rumble said, still waiting for the girls. As the Crusaders stepped outside, they spotted their sisters with their friends. "We should let them know that we're going to Rumble's house," Apple Bloom said. "I hope they're fine with it," Sweetie Belle said. "He's a friend of ours, it'll be totally okay," Scootaloo said, the three walking to the seven girls. Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer were chatting with Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie and Applejack about any plans they could make for the weekend, among other things. "I'm thinking we try that fancy spa, the one all the way downtown," Rarity said. "Gonna be a pain to get there," Rainbow Dash said. "None of us have cars." "I'm close to getting my license," Sunset said. "We still need a car," Rainbow Dash pointed out. "Applejack, doesn't Big Mac drive a car?" "You mean his pick-up truck? Yeah but that's mostly fer deliveries," Applejack said. "Twilight's brother has a car." "Yes but don't expect him to drive us to a spa, he's usually really busy," Twilight said. "Yeah...with that girlfriend of his," Rainbow Dash teased. "She's his fiancé, not his girlfriend," Twilight said. "And that's not a bad thing, Rainbow Dash." "Never said it was," Rainbow Dash slyly insisted. "Excuse me, girls," Apple Bloom said, getting their attention. "Sorry to bug ya." "It's all good, need something?" Applejack asked. "Yeah, we just wanted to let you know that we're going to a friend's house," Apple Bloom said. "That's fine, just call us when you get there and try not to break anything," Applejack said. "Hey come on, we're not that reckless," Apple Bloom said. "Uh, no offense kid, but you three raked up some intense property damage over the last few weeks," Rainbow Dash said. "Eh, things happen," Scootaloo said. "Things happen?" Twilight asked. "Not a good excuse Scootaloo." "Look, we just came to say we're going to a friend's house, so we'll see you all later," Scootaloo said, making her leave. "We'll be sure to call ya," Apple Bloom said. "Thanks, bye!" Sweetie Belle said. Twilight seemed a bit satisfied with what she heard, "Sounds like they're branching out and not keeping their friendship to their little circle." "Maybe it will be a large group like ours," Sunset pointed out. "That'd be nice, but it'd be better to stick with who you know," Applejack said. "The best friends are the ones you can rely on to be the closest to," Fluttershy said. "And the ones you love the most!" Pinkie said. "Well as long as...wait," Rarity called to the girls. "Who are you spending time with!?" "Rumble!" Sweetie Belle called back. “We’re going to Rumble’s house!” "Oh, Rumble..." Rarity's eyes widened. "Wait, who!?" "Catch you later!" Scootaloo called, the girls joining Rumble as Flitter let them into her car, the girl driving away. "...Oh...no..." Rarity said. "Uh, you alright there Rares?" Rainbow Dash asked. "My dear little Sweetie Belle...is in the car with a boy!" Rarity shouted. "Yes, so are her friends," Sunset said. "And one of our classmates, who we know is a nice girl." "But Rumble is a boy!" Rarity said. "You know how boys are!" "Really nice?" Fluttershy suggested. "Please, name a boy that's nice," Rarity said. "...My brother," Twilight said. "Mine too," Applejack pointed out. "Actually, my little brother is also really nice, and you seem to like him, Rarity," Twilight said. "Alright, how about a boy no one here is related to and thus not obligated to call that boy 'nice'," Rarity said. "What's with you?" Rainbow Dash asked. "So they're with a boy, no big deal." "No big deal? You know how boys are!" Rarity said. "I bet he just sees my sister as nothing more than his personal make-out buddy." "Whoa, that escalated," Rainbow Dash said. "Do you know if Rumble has a crush on Sweetie Belle?" "It doesn't have to be a crush, one look at the body of hers and I bet he wants it bad!" Rarity said. "Boys can be such perverts after all." "To be fair, so can girls," Rainbow Dash said. "Honestly it's more likely that Scootaloo would flirt with Rumble." "Well I won't take any chances," Rarity said, stomping in the direction of Rumble's house. "For my Sweetie Belle!" "Oh for the love of..." Rainbow Dash groaned. "Why is she so freaking weird sometimes?" "She's just worried about Sweetie Belle, it's a big sister thing," Applejack said. "Do you feel worried about Apple Bloom?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Well, I'll always worry a little, but I'm not gonna fret too much," Applejack said. "Rumble seems like a nice boy, and even so, ah trust Apple Bloom to take care of herself." "Rumble is a nice boy, I see him at my library reading comics," Twilight said. "He told me that if he could, he'd become a superhero too." "He wants to fly around and have superpowers?" Sunset asked. "Get into battles with super baddies and save the world?" Pinkie Pie asked. "Sort of," Twilight said. "He likes the action-packed stuff, but he also likes the good messages they have. About just doing something out of kindness, or doing good for the sake of doing good, and all the ways to do it. He finds those actions inspiring and he wants to be that good person in life too. I find that to be a very admirable trait for Rumble, or anyone. Like my brothers, they love this stuff and I think they want to prove that they have those heroic traits too." "Gotta admit, that's really nice to hear," Applejack said. "So...should we check on Rarity?" "Yeah, might be a good idea," Rainbow Dash said, everyone going after their very worried friend. At Rumble's house, the boy was escorting the girls around, showing them all there was. "This is my home." "Wow..." the three said, amazed by his family's possessions. "Neat place, huh?" Rumble asked. "Whoa...check out all the sports stuff!" Scootaloo said. "Hockey Sticks! Baseball Bats! Golf Clubs! Oooooh! Those skateboards!" "Yeah, figures you'd like that," Rumble said. "Wow, fancy suits," Sweetie Belle said. "And trophies!" "Some are my brother's, some are from Flitter and Cloudchaser, even a few from my parents," Rumble said. "But I got a couple to my name." "Sure do," Apple Bloom said. "You must be really talented." "It's nothing," Rumble insisted. "Dude, enough with the humility," Scootaloo said. "You're awesome, now acknowledge it!" "Oh dang!" Apple Bloom said, gesturing to an appliance. "That's one big TV!" "Perfect for watching sports...or movies...or even cartoons," Rumble said. "I have a wide variety of interests." "Hey I won't knock you for the cartoons part," Scootaloo said. "Takes a real man to admit you still watch cartoons. Me, I'm a girl so I it doesn't matter as much." "What the heck does that even mean?" Apple Bloom asked. Sweetie Belle peaked into the kitchen, "Wow, your kitchen looks really fancy." "Oh thanks," Rumble said, stepping inside and giving them a tour. "Here's a fun fact about me and my brother. We like to cook. When we're not doing sports, we're making a nice buffet of food." "Holy crap! You can cook!?" Scootaloo asked. "You're gonna make a girl one lucky wife." Sweetie Belle blushed a bit, briefly imagining herself as that wife. "I hope it's not weird, I hear that the wife is supposed to cook," Rumble said. "But, I just really have fun with it." "Bogus, there's no rule that says a boy can't cook," Scootaloo said. "That's like saying a girl can't play sports." "What else is there?" Apple Bloom asked. "Wanna check out my room?" Rumble asked. "Totally!" The trio said. "Follow me," Rumble said as he led the girls upstairs. Meanwhile Flitter had been standing around, amazed by the energy, "Wow, it's like I totally disappeared. Oh well." Up in his room, Rumble showed everything off, "This is my personal space in the house. A place where I can be me." "Oh, this looks nice," Apple Bloom said, picking up a small ribbon. "Why ain't it with the trophies?" "It's for cooking a great tray of cookies at a county fair," Rumble said. "Not something that fits with the other sports." "Hey if yer this good at cooking, I'm gonna have to bring ya home to mah family and cook fer them," Apple Bloom said. "Try not to do too good of a job, or mah granny will want me to marry ya." Sweetie Belle furrowed her brow at Apple Bloom, puffing her cheeks out in the process. "How flattering," Rumble said, showing off the rest of his stuff. "These are my prized possessions. My action figures." "Wow, big superhero fan, huh?" Scootaloo said. "Well, you tell me," Rumble said, opening hsi closet to reveal stacks upon stacks of comics. "Dang Rumble, that's quite a collection," Apple Bloom said. "I really like superheroes, they're really inspiring to others," Rumble said. "The powers are cool too, like one hero who can run super fast, at the blink of an eye. Then there's one who can shoot magic beams, and one who's necklace summons a storm." "This one reminds me of my sister," Sweetie Belle said, gesturing to a comic. "The one that says, 'Radiance'." "Oh she's cool too, she can create anything using her imagination," Rumble said. Scootaloo took note of something else that caught her eye, "Wow, you got video games too!?" "Oh yeah, I got the latest console and some of its games," Rumble said. "Didn't take you fer the gamer type," Apple Bloom said. "Hey if it's competitive, it's got my interest," Rumble said. "Of course, when it comes to gaming, I'm nowhere near as good as Button Mash." "Ugh...that kid," Sweetie Belle lamented. "You don't sound too pleased, Sweetie Belle," Rumble said. "He has this stupid crush on me and keeps trying to ask me out," Sweetie Belle said. "Don't get me wrong, he's a nice boy but he's too immature for me." "He seems fine to me," Scootaloo said. "Alright, then you ask him out, I'm not interested in him," Sweetie Belle said. "Hey I'm not ready to date anyone," Scootaloo said. Sweetie Belle groaned in annoyance, "Then are you...you know what, I am not dealing with this." "You know, I've gamed myself," Scootaloo said. "Got anything all four of us can play?" "Totally," Rumble said, grabbing one. "Since you girls like karts, let's race." "Oh you're on!" Scootaloo said. A bit later outside, Rarity was getting close to Rumble's house. In spite of the sweat particles forming, her determination was not waivered. "Getting closer, Sweetie Belle!" Rarity said. Back in his room, the four kids were still gaming, doing a few racing sessions. Rumble had brougt some snacks and drinks for the girls to enjoy while they played the game with him. "Closer...closer..." Scootaloo's car crossed the finish line, the girl leaping up in joy and spilling the snacks. "Boom! I won! In your faces, losers!" "Geez Scootaloo, take the win with a sense of dignity," Apple Bloom said. "That's loser talk," Scootaloo said, then crunched her legs. "Damn, all that soda's about to make it's way out of me. I gotta use the bathroom." "Outside on the right," Rumble said. "Thanks!" Scootaloo dashed out. "I'm gonna go get some more chips since Scootaloo spilt them all," Apple Bloom said. "Ask Flitter where they are," Rumble said. "Sure, will do,” Apple Bloom as she left the room. This left Rumble alone with Sweetie Belle, the boy feeling a bit nervous. "So...liking the visit so far?" "Yeah, it's fun!" Sweetie Belle said. "We should hang out some more soon!" "Yeah, I was thinking the same thing," Rumble said. "Um...got anything in mind?" "I'm not the best at coming up with ideas," Sweetie Belle said. "Well...I know an indoor pool we can do to...if you want," Rumble said, blushing a bit. "Oooh! A pool! That sounds fun!" Sweetie Belle said. "I know a good time of day when the pool is less crowded too, it can be just us," Rumble said. "You um...do you have a bathing suit?" "I think so," Sweetie Belle said. "If not I'll buy one." "Sounds great, just let me know," Rumble said. "Oh wait, I don't have your contact information." "I can give you it," Sweetie Belle said. "Got a pen?" Nervously but hastily, Rumble handed Sweetie Belle what she needed. Once she was done she gave the information back to him. "Thanks," Sweetie Belle said, making a phone gesture with her hands. "Call me." "Oh I certainly will," Rumble said, the boy's face kind of red. It didn't take long for the situation to dawn on Sweetie Belle, "I just gave a boy my phone number...I didn't even hesitate! Wow...are we moving that fast? No, it's just to hang out more, especially with friends. But what if he wants to hang out alone?" "Hey...Sweetie Belle," Rumble said, getting the girl's attention. "I'm...really happy you're enjoying yourself. I was worried you wouldn't have fun." "Well that's a silly thing to worry about," Sweetie Belle said. "You're a great guy, and I'm happy I got the chance to hang out with you. One day, you can come over to my place." "Wow...really?" Rumble asked. Sweetie Belle nervously nodded, "If you want." The two started to feel some strange emotions as they glanced at each other, as if they were the only two left on the planet. Slowly they moved closer to each other, their faces mere inches apart as each of them pondered if they were really going to do what was on their mind. Unfortunately for them, Scootaloo had returned, "Alright, my bladder's empty." Sweetie Belle's eyes widened in shock as she angrily turned to her friend, "Scootaloo..." "Hm? Yeah, what is it?" Scootaloo asked. "TOO MUCH INFORMATION!" Sweetie Belle shouted, startling both Scootaloo and Rumble. "She's cute when she's mad," Rumble mentally noted. Later on the girls had decided to go home and left Rumble's house, the boy walking them out the door. "I'm really glad you enjoyed yourselves," Rumble said. "Same, thanks fer having us over," Apple Bloom said. "We gotta do this against sometime." "We'll go to the pool soon, hopefully tomorrow," Rumble said. "Sweet, I just gotta see if I have a bathing suit," Scootaloo said. "Unless it's alright to go skinny dipping." "There's no freaking way yer going skinny dipping in our company, ya weirdo!" Apple Bloom shouted. "Geez..." Sweetie Belle lamented, then focused on Rumble. "Still, thanks again for having us." "No problem, I'll call you later," Rumble said. "Yeah, I look forward to that," Sweetie Belle said, unaware of Apple Bloom's coy smile. "Well, bye girls," Rumble said, closing the door and awkwardly turning away. "Yeah, bye Rumble," Sweetie Belle said, making her own leave with her friends. Inside, Rumble took a breath of relief, "I'm that much closer...hopefully I can get the nerve you ask her out." "Aw...so you do have a crush," Flitter said, freaking the boy out. "Flitter!?" Rumble shouted. "Where did you-" "Gotta be careful what you say around others," Flitter said, winking at the boy. Rumble sighed in worry, "Please don't tell anyone." "Don't worry, it stays between us," Flitter said. "Just talk to me when you need help, I'll help you make this work." "I really appreciate that, thanks Flitter," Rumble said. Outside, as Sweetie Belle walked up the street, Apple Bloom went by her, "So...he has yer number?" "...Yeah, just for pool thing," Sweetie Belle insisted. "Uh-huh, sure," Apple Bloom said. "I'm serious Apple Bloom!" Sweetie Belle said. "He wants to be sure I can go to the pool." "Hey, it's fine, really," Apple Bloom said. "Look, if you ever want to talk, I'm all ears. Ah ain't gonna tease ya." "...Alright, I'll keep that in mind," Sweetie Belle said. Scootaloo then noticed something unusual ahead, "Uh, is that Rarity?" The three spotted the girl passed out on the sidewalk, much to Sweetie Belle's concern. "Sis!?" "Sweetie...Belle...I..." Rarity was out of breath, much to her sister's worry. "Good grief, hold on Rarity, I got ya," Sweetie Belle said, helping her sister up. "Heh, this just got weird,:" Scootaloo said. "Just shut up and help," Apple Bloom said, going to assist Rarity. "Yeah sure," Scootaloo said, going to help as well. Eventually Rarity's other friends had caught up, each of them going to help, aside from Twilight who took a moment to groan in annoyance, "Rarity...you're so unbelievably stubborn sometimes." The fashionista was taken home to get hydrated while the Crusaders prepared for their next outing with Rumble, the boy ready to see the girls again, especially the one of his dreams.
