Miracle's First Crush (Hero Stories)/Part 2

When the Smurfs finally arrived back in the village, Papa Smurf ordered them to quickly store it away in the storehouse, but done so in a co-operative manner. As they stored the supplies away, Smurfette came across a piece of broken glass in the corner, she picked it up and stared into it and her reflection appeared to show a male Smurf.

"Hero! Come here! I've smurfed something," Smurfette called out.

Hero came over to her after placing several supply sacks into place, "What did you find, Smurfette?" he asked.

"I've smurfed across a broken piece of the Mirror of Opposition," Smurfette answered, showing him the piece she found.

Hero's eyes shot open as he took the piece from her, but very carefully as to not severely cut himself. He stared into it and an image of Wonder smiling at him appeared in the reflection, his eyes began to tear up.

"Are you alright?" Smurfette asked, placing her hand on his shoulder.

"I'm fine," Hero answered back, wiping away the tears. "Just smurfing memories of Wonder again."

Smurfette bravely smiled, "I know you miss her, Hero, I miss her too. She was my best friend." she said.

Hero continued to stare into the piece of glass before he was cut off by Hefty tapping him on the shoulder.

"Come on, Hero, no time to waste. We have to smurf the supplies in as quickly as possible," Hefty said.

Hero shook his head, "Of course, Hefty," he answered back before getting back to work.

... As the older Smurfs continued to store the supplies away under the watchful eyes of Papa Smurf and Mother Smurfette, the younger Smurfs were talking amongst themselves, primarily about the elf musician they had just met not long ago.

"I've got to say," Miracle said to her friends Bolt and Moxette. "That elf musician, Bombollino, was really charming."

"I can't argue with you there, Miracle," Moxette said. "He was really something, he's more handsome that some of our fellow Smurfs."

"Especially Brutus?" Bolt asked Moxette.

"Especially Brutus!" Moxette answered back with a smile.

Brutus overheard their conversation and felt himself getting somewhat agitated.

"I swear, the next time we smurf across that Bombollino; I'm gonna smurf him a piece of my mind."

"Aren't you just feeling jealous that the lassie smurfs an interest in someone else, laddie?" William asked.

"I already told you, Wullie," Brutus snapped back. "I'm not jealous! I just don't want someone smurfing Miracle away from me."

"Jealousy is a cruel smurf, Brutus," Smarty advised. "It's always best that you smurf..."

Brutus stopped Smarty in his tracks by smacking him across the face, "Smurf up! I'm not in the mood for your smurf," he said sounding very snarky.

"I was only trying to help," Smarty responded back. "You didn't need to smurf me in the smurf."

"Yeah, Brutus!" Dopey said, adding his view on the subject. "You just smurfed out of line."

"I've had enough of you Smurfs for one day!" Brutus said angrily. "I'm going home."

"What's smurfing up with him today?" Smarty asked the others.

"My biggest belief is that he's jealous that Miracle's smurfing her attentions to another male and not himself, laddies," William answered.

"I guess that's true," Smarty said.

"What are we gonna do?" Dopey asked.

"I'm not sure, laddie," William answered, sounding unsure. "But I sure hope this jealousy smurfs passed soon."
