Hello beautiful cuppiecakes! It's time to read!

Thanks for all the support and patience. I'm really trying to get over this writer's block. I have been inspired by the books I've been reading, some Korean dramas I've seen (and you know they are good inspirations), and from other classic books too. :D Thanks so much guys!

Princess' POV

I quickly checked myself in the rearview mirror. I watched the road, then looked at my watch. I was already 15 minutes late! I stepped harder on the gas pedal.

Oh I hope Butch won't be mad. He must be waiting patiently for me at the dance studio. I even bet Buttercup is there. I looked at my watch again. Then again, maybe not because Buttercup doesn't even care about this wedding. She might not even show up. Maybe I can beat her to the dance studio!

I finally arrived at the dance studio. Shoot. 30 minutes late! I quickly got out of my car.

Oh poor Butch! He's been waiting for half an hour. He must be worried. I opened the door. He must be worried that I –

WHAT IS GOING ON? I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out. Why is he dancing with her? THAT SHOULD BE ME! I tried to speak but only small breaths came out. But they continued dancing! They didn't even realize I'm here.

My sadness and surprise quickly turned into pure rage.

"Ahem!" I yelled. "What do you think you're doing?" They stopped dancing. Took them long enough.

"Ah, are you one of the bridesmaids?" a girl said. She must be the instructor. She must be stupid.

"Uh. No!" Who does she think she is talking to? Some random girl who walked in? "I'm the bride!"

The stupid girl decided to talk again. "But-"

"Don't want to hear it lady!" I said, not taking my eyes off Butch and Buttercup. I drew a deep breath and sighed. "I have had it," I said in an aggravated low tone. Step by step, I walked toward them, glaring daggers at them.

I looked at Buttercup, my eyes becoming narrow. "Get. Out." I clenched my teeth. Buttercup acted like she didn't care. She simply walked out of the room. My eyes followed her as she left. I turned back, expecting to see Butch, but I see him leaving as well. He's not following Buttercup is he? I tightened my fists. He is following her!

I yelled in frustration. Suddenly, bright, flashing lights came on. Stupid paparazzi! Stupid Buttercup taking away my wedding! NO FAIR! No fair!

I dialed my phone. "Daddy!" I screamed into the phone. "Schedule the dance practice for another day."

"But why?" he asked.

I hung up. It's no use telling him why. It's no use telling him we have to cancel practice because some girl is taking away her fiancé.

Buttercup Utonium. I'm going to ruin your life. Even if it's the last thing I do.

…

Few Days Later (No POV)

Blossom threw the newspapers down on the table next the couch where Buttercup was sleeping. Buttercup woke up.

She sighed. "What?"

"Read that," Bubbles said.

"Have you heard what Townsville has been saying?" Blossom asked.

Buttercup picked up the newspapers. One had a huge headline on the front. "Could This Be Love?" She threw on the table and looked at the second newspaper. "He Never Looked at Her This Way Before." She looked at the next newspaper. "Jojo and Morbucks Wedding May Be Canceled." She sighed again.

This articles were all about her and Butch. There were pictures of them dancing and hilarious picture of Princess looking mad.

"Buttercup," Blossom said, "What's going on?"

"Do you…" Bubbles started to giggle. "Do you like Butch?"

"No!" Buttercup scoffed.

"Why are you hiding your feelings?" Bubbles whined.

"Can't you see it? Apparently everyone knows you like Butch, except for you. You love him."

Buttercup scoffed again. "I don't. I really don't." She got serious. "Why would you love someone if you're going to end up being hurt? Love is so overrated."

"Oh, what makes you think that?"

"You can't love someone like that," Buttercup said. "Look at the professor. He knows he can live without it. Heck, just look at that celebrity! She thought she loved. Did it work out in the end? No. Her marriage lasted for –what?– two days?"

"Buttercup this is different," Blossom urged.

"Ugh, this is getting too mushy for me," Buttercup said. She got up and walked away from her sisters.

…

"What will father think of this?" Brick scoffed. "You made a deal with the Morbucks. A deal you can't break."

"Maybe he can break this deal. Just for once," Boomer told Brick. "He actually loves someone. And he can't let that go just 'cause some stupid deal."

"Love?" Butch laughed. "What love are you talking about?"

"Oh please," Brick scoffed.

"My son!" they heard a happy voice say. They turned around and saw their father walking down the stairs. Butch quickly grabbed the newspapers his brothers showed him and hid them under the couch pillow.

"My boy, I am so proud of you," their father said with glee. Brick and Boomer then left the room for them to talk.

"You will be the reason why our company will live on," Father continued. "You making this deal, it's just – I'm so proud."

Butch gave a weak smile.

"I can't thank you enough."

Butch gave a small, nervous laugh.

"Is something the matter?" his father asked. He sensed that Butch was a little sad.

"It's nothing."

"You should be happy! You are going to have a wedding. You should be excited. You should look forward to making this company survive!" he said with a smile. "Aren't you?"

"… Yeah." 'Father obviously doesn't care about how I feel about marrying Princess.'

"Good, good," he smiled. "I'm so proud of you."

He got up and walked away with a big smile on his face. Butch couldn't let his father down. As much as he hated this marriage, he felt that needed to go through with it anyways.

…

"Buttercup!" Professor sternly said.

She stepped forward as the Professor sat up on his bed. "Yes?"

"Did you read the – "

"Yes, I read the newspapers," she interrupted.

"Did you watch -"

"I watched the news too," she said.

He sighed. "Why? Did this happen on purpose? Did you mean for this to happen?"

"No… I really didn't want to get involved in all of this."

"How did this happen?"

"It's… I don't know really."

"Well you better find out. And make this nonsense stop."

Buttercup couldn't disagree more. She wanted all this to just end. How did she get entangled up in this drama? She never asked for this. She never intended for this to happen. The more and more she thought about it, she realized that this was all stupid.

Why should I waste my time with this? It's killing me. Everyone says that I like him and that he likes me. But… I never realized… how much I do like him. No. I sound like a young naïve kid who thinks they found love. But I'm older now. I should know how I feel. I should know how to control my feelings. I need to stop this. I need to show him that this is all so stupid.

If he does like me, like everyone says he does, then I have to admit: that would make me feel pretty flattered. It would be kind of nice to have somebody to love.

Uhm no. I need this to stop. He's marrying Princess. It's for his company. It's actually kind of admirable that he would do that for his family and company. I get why he's doing this.

But how does he feel about this? Take away the company and family… Would he still want to go through with this marriage? Does love have anything to do with his situation?

It seems like a one-sided relationship. Princess loves him but the feeling is not mutual from him. Is it because of me? No. Impossible. I need this to stop.

If it is because of me, then… it's gotten crazy. Him, ruining his company because of me? It's not worth it. I'd rather have my heart broken than that happening.

Wait. Would my heart be broken? I can feel something… It's like a weight pulling my heart…

Is this what it feels like…? To be in love? To have a broken heart?

This has gotten too far… This… whatever this is, needs to stop before it gets any worse.

No matter how much it'll hurt me…
