When you see her start crying, just hold her and don't say a word
"Damn ocean," Buttercup sneers, cursing the clear blue happy ocean below her. No one will find her here, at least, she thinks so. So she can cry if she wants to…no, if she has to.
The grey clouds followed here from her school to the cliff and they litter the sky. Looking up, she isn't surprised to feel a raindrop on her cheek…she isn't surprised to feel the tear either.
A twig snaps and she jerks her head back to the noise, glaring at Butch as he stands in front of her in the rain, casually chewing a piece of gum. He stares at her, his green eyes dark in an emotion of worry that he will never admit.
Why did he have to find her? Couldn't it have been her sisters? Or her father? Her teacher? Mitch? Just anyone…anyone but him.
Wait, no one thought anything was wrong with her…no one noticed…no one but him.
He says nothing, slipping his hands out of his pockets as he approaches her. Turning her head back to the ocean, she does her best to ignore him as he slips his arms in front of her neck. Pulling her into his warmth by her collar bone, he rests his cheek on her shoulder. Staring into her eyes as she looks out to the ocean.
She jerks suddenly, fitting against his grip. He merely tightens his hold on her, breathing hot air down her neck that does not give her goose bumps…at all.
Buttercup sighs as the rain falls harder, allowing herself to release more tears.
Butch is really sweet… when he doesn't open his mouth. Smiling at her own joke, she pays him no mind as he kisses her cheek.
Thank god he found her.
Yes, well. Also short. But... um... I hope you liked!
