AN: so this is my first AU of my butchercup AU dump. If you want me to continue on any of these please review and I'll make a story out of it! Hope you enjoy :)
Buttercup's POV
"C'mon cupcake, just hop in the car. I'm not gonna let you just fly to our date when you can just relax in the car." Yes, I was dating Butch, for a little over a year now, actually. "Butch, you know I don't like riding in cars…" I found it kinda pointless to drive when we could both fly and get there much faster. He gave me a pleading look that he knew I couldn't resist. "Please, for me babe?" Ugh I was done. I sighed in defeat and stepped into his green vintage Camero.
Butch closed the door behind me and ran around to his side of the car. He started the car as fast as he could, which I assumed was because he didn't want me to change my mind. Before he put the car in drive, he looked over to me and shot me a genuine smile. I learned to appreciate it since it was usually a smirk of some sort. "I love you, Buttercup." I looked back at him and smiled through my blush. "I love you too, Butch. I wouldn't be in this car if I didn't!" He laughed a little and started to pull off.
We started on our way to the baseball game, where we were having our date. Butch and I had a bet going on who was going to win the game since it wasn't just any normal baseball game, it was the MLB World Series Championship Game. I had about $100 on the Cubs and he was $100 worth of convinced that the Indians would beat them, and currently, we were engaged in a heated, yet playful trash talk session.
"Hope you aren't planning on spending the $100 you're going to owe me by the end of the night, playboy." I knew I had gotten his attention when his jaw clenched. "I wouldn't dream of it babe, I would only use the $100 that you're gonna pay ME by the end of the night!" I growled a little at his cockiness, he was going down! "As if! My wallet's only opening to put the $100 I get from you in it!" It was his turn to growl at me. "Or to take the $100 out to give to ME when I win!" At that we both started laughing at each other at how into the bet we both were.
We continued to drive, only five more minutes until we got there. "Hey babe, can you reach in the backseat and grab my wallet, we are about 5 minutes from the place?" I was already nervous about riding in the car, much less unbuckling myself and crawling in the back. "Like… unbuckle myself..?" I asked him nervously and he chuckled at my reaction. "Yeah, don't you trust my driving?" I hated when he asked these kinds of questions. It wasn't his driving I was worried about…
I reluctantly unbuckled myself and started searching the back for his wallet. "Where is it, Butch?" He looked back at me and I looked towards him and froze.
Butch's POV
"Where is it Butch?" I looked back at my girlfriend to see where she was looking. I was about to answer but she turned to face me and froze, all color draining from her face. I turned back towards the road to see a tractor trailer in our lane coming straight at us! I tried to steer around it, but it ran into the side of the car full force, and my vision immediately went black, but not without hearing a rare scream from Buttercup.
Nobody's POV
Butch tried to avoid the impact of the trailer, but was hit full force in the side, bending his old convertible into the shape of a boomerang. Butch was knocked out from the school and impact of the trailer. Buttercup, however, not being buckled in was flung into the middle of the road, getting severely injured from both the impact, the cuts from the glass, and being flung from the car. With all the cars around, it wasn't long before an ambulance and cops showed up.
Butch's POV
I woke up to severe pain all throughout my body and the flashing of lights all around me. What happened? A few paramedics were helping me out of my car, which to my dismay was completely totaled. "What happened?" Maybe they could remind me of what was going on… "You were involved in a drunk driving accident… your car was hit by a tractor trailer." My memories slowly started coming back to me.
I turned around for a second, Buttercup looked up in horr- BUTTERCUP! "WHERE IS SHE?! WHERE'S BUTTERCUP?" They looked at each other and looked across the road. I followed their gaze and felt my heart drop to my stomach. She was laying on the other side of the road in a puddle of her own blood. I broke away from the paramedics and ran over to her, praying she would be ok.
They yelled after me, but right now, nothing was more important than Buttercup, this was all my fault! She looked even worse up close. Her arms and legs were horribly broken, her once flawless skin was littered with gashes, cuts, scrapes, and bruises, but what scared me the most was that her eyes were open, a look of fear in them as I could see the life draining from them.
I ran next to her and cradled her head in my arms. "Buttercup! Stay with me babe! Don't leave me!" She looked up at me, tears falling down her face for the first time I'd ever seen them and tried to talk. "B-B-But..ch I-I do-n't w-wan-t t-to di-e…he-lp, I c-c-an't br-b-bre-the." I started crying and started yelling at the paramedics to help her. "Just stay awake babe, just focus on me ok love?" She coughed up blood that only drained more hope from the situation. "SOMEONE HELP HER! PLEASE!"
The paramedics all stood there not knowing what to do, they knew there was no hope for her. Deep down, I knew as well, I just didn't want to let go without trying. I didn't want to lose her like this! I didn't want to lose her period! "Bu-tch… k-k-iss m-e g-good-by-e?"
She knew what was happening, she knew she was dying… and I did too. This was all my fault, and the least I could do was grant her her final wish. I leaned down and kissed her with all the love I felt towards her. If I didn't get the chance to tell her again, I wanted her to feel it. She weakly kissed back and I could taste the copper of the blood on her lips, but right now, I could care less. I pulled away to realize her eyes didn't open after I did.
I started to panic at the thought of her being gone. "Buttercup? BUTTERCUP! WAKE UP DAMNIT! I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH!" I cried into her lifeless body, the one that could've been alive and well had we just flown like she had suggested. The paramedics gave me my space to let me have my last moment with her, the love of my life, my soulmate. I looked over to the man who was driving the trailer. He was being shoved in the police car, screaming drunken profanities. I hoped he would rot in prison.
I looked back down at Buttercup, even dead and scarred, she was the most beautiful thing to me… and now I would never see her gorgeous lime green eyes, I would never see her unforgettable white smile, and I would never be able to connect the light freckles that dusted her cheeks and the bridge of her nose. The paramedics dragged me into an ambulance and covered her perfect body with a white sheet.
I only needed a few stitches, broke my nose, and dislocated my shoulder. They fixed me on the site and brought me to the hospital for a follow up. As they were closing the back of the ambulance, I saw my green car getting towed away. I never wanted to see that car again!
The hospital gave me the all clear, but before I could walk out, my brothers and Buttercup's sisters ran in. I wasn't surprised when they started to panic over my appearance. They all had questions. Brick asked first. "Dude, what the hell happened?" They all looked at me expectantly. "A drunk driver hit my car." I tried to keep the facts to a bare minimum because I knew if I explained everything, I would have an emotional breakdown.
Boomer asked the next question. "Bro, are you ok?" I didn't know how to answer that. Physically, I would be fine, but mentally and emotionally, I didn't know how to cope with the situation. "I don't know Boom, I don't think I am…" everyone seemed to look shocked at my response and I didn't blame them, I never admitted to a weakness.
Bubbles was the next to throw in a question. "Wh-where's Buttercup?" The question was innocent enough, but she didn't know that was all it would take to make me cry again. Everyone stared in shock and fear at what they were watching, I never cried. Blossom was the one to remind me of the pending question. "Butch..? Where is she?" I looked up at them with what I was sure was a look of pain and despair. "She….she...I-I can't! SHE'S FUCKING DEAD AND IT'S ALL MY FAULT!" I heard Bubbles shriek and start crying hysterically and Blossom mumbling her denial of the fact. Brick and Boomer just sat there in shock, faces drained of color.
The next day was her funeral, everyone attended, she was only 18 after all, barely even an adult. She never had the chance to grow up… with me, I didn't plan on letting her go, especially not like this. I was the last person remaining by her grave, which read:
Buttercup Blaire Utonium
Never to forget, always to love, forever to miss
1998-2016
I reached in my wallet and pulled out a $100 bill and buried it next to her. "You won babe… they won 8-7 in extra innings. I know I don't really need to pay you, but I feel like I owe it to you… I-I love you so much!" I laid there crying for the rest of the night. I would never love someone as much as I loved her…
AN: There's my Car Accident AU! Pretty tragic, well that's what I was going for at least… hope you liked it! And stay tuned, I have a lot more and don't worry, They aren't all this depressing. Please review! Hope you enjoyed :)
