Buttercup went to the go-kart races with Lukas. Lukas, who told her about the dirt paths, took her by the hand as he helps her into a go-kart. Buttercup eyes him with suspicion. "What up with the niceness...? I don't trust it."

"You don't trust it, or you don't trust me?"

"I don't wanna step on your toes-"

"Toes aren't stepped on, dear lady. I see that your relationship status is complicated."

"How do you-"

"I can see it in your eyes."

Buttercup puts on her helmet as she looks at her feet, embarrassed. Lukas laughs as he puts a hand on her knee. Brushing it away, she says, "Thanks for the niceness, but I'm just..."

"I know."

As he takes the wheel and drives around the track for a few until he lets her drive around.

"Lemme know about you. Who is Buttercup Utonium?"

"Well...I'm formerly a Powerpuff Girl. I now am a boxing trainer. My boyfriend is Butch Jojo."

"Oh. I think I have heard of you guys..."

"Yeah?"

"News wise."

"Oh."

Buttercup eyes Mitch Mitchelson, the former bully of their old school years. With his dark brown hair messed up and wearing a black t-shirt and khakis, Buttercup admitted in her head that he looked decent, she guessed. He was talking with...Butch and Princess Morbucks. She knew it! Princess was nothing but a boyfriend stealer, and she was taking Butch away from her! She wanted to get out of the go-kart and smash someone's face in, but she was having too much fun with Lukas to mess it up. As she was tired from the excitement, she sits next to Lukas on an empty bench. He came back to her with two ice cream cones: one choclate for Buttercup and one strawberry for himself. As he hands hers to Buttercup, she thanks him and eats her ice cream.

"I see that you're tense."

"No...I see...Butch."

"Where?"

She nods to the black spiky-haired boy.

"Oh. Isn't that Princess Morbucks?"

"You mean the Princess of Slutsville...then yes."

"Heh. Good one. I don't trust her; she used to go out with my brother."

"Whoa, what? What happened?"

"She dumped him."

"Ouch. What did he do?"

"Nothing! It was his background. You see, we're not 'rich' like her. She'll take anything she could get her hands on..."

"Heh. I see."

"Yeah."

"I wish Butch would wake up to see that he's being used."

"Maybe she's into bad boys."

"She's the first one he cheated on me with."

"Ouch."

"And there were...others."

"Double ouch!"

"Yeah."

"He's a douche! Why don't you break up with him?"

"I don't know...guess I'm scared."

"Of what?"

Buttercup thought about that for a minute. What was she afraid of?

"Maybe it's just me."

She gets up after she gets done with her ice cream and was about to leave, but she saw Lukas going towards Butch. Buttercup pulls on his sleeve. "No, don't! I don't wanna cause a scene..."

He sighs and says, "Alright. For you."

Buttercup blushes and silently says a small thank you.


Blossom was still trying to figure out the outcome of her pregnancy. How? Why? When? She only thought of two people: Brick and Marty. She gulped as she thought of Marty. She hoped that Marty wasn't the father. If he was...she wouldn't EVEN let him go near the baby. Blossom sighs to herself as she was lying in her bedroom depressed. Depressed and confused. She hears a knock on the door. She was too sad and lazy to get the door, but she got up anyway.

"Hello...?"

It was Brick with a teddy bear and some chocolates in his hands.

"Heard you have gotten sick, baby. I thought of gettin' you these."

She sniffles as she grabs the things out of his hands, puts them on the couch, and grabs the front of his red tuxedo shirt and kisses his lips.

"Thanks, Brick...how did you..."

"I heard from someone. Are you okay?"

"I have been sick lately..."

"You should stay home with me, baby."

"No. My job-"

"Your job could wait! Your health is more important!"

Blossom looks at her boyfriend. Was this really him? Brick Jojo.

"Brick..."

"Trust me, baby."

He holds out her hand and kisses it. "I got you."

Blossom had tears in her eyes as she sits on the couch next to him.

"I've got good news, baby."

"Yeah, Brick?"

"I've quit smoking...for you."

"That's good."

"Yeah. I've been thinking about us lately. All the bad things in our relationship. It made me guilty."

She bit her lip. "Don't feel guilty, baby."

"No, I HAVE to. I'm bad for you. I don't know how you've put up with me, after all of these years."

"Brick-"

"I'm not done. Baby...I miss you at night. I miss all of the good things that we've experienced. I regret all of the times that I've been horrible to you. I love you, Blossom Utonium...and I want to ask you..."

He gets on one knee and takes out something out of his pocket. It was a wedding ring. Beautifully sparkling pink. "Will you marry me...?"

Blossom drops on her knees, covering her mouth. "Yes...I would LOVE to...but..."

"But?"

"I have something to tell you."

"What is it, baby…?"

"I'm..."

"Say it slowly..."

"I'm pregnant."

Brick's face turned pale at the news. Blossom covers her mouth, nearly crying out loud. "I'm sorry, baby."

"Is it mine...?"

"I don't know...it could be...or..."

"Marty's...God, Bloss. I'm sorry! I can't believe I let this happen!"

"Brick-"

"I'm gonna kill him if it's his!"

Blossom takes his hands into hers and says, "Please….We can get through this. Together."

Brick smiles slowly. "Together."

They kiss on the lips and Brick slips the ring on Blossom's finger. "It looks rather dashing...Mrs. Jojo."

"Thank you...Mister Jojo."

They kiss again and hug. For a long time.
