I can't believe what
I did last night! I kissed someone. No, not just 'someone', I kissed Andra!
I think I'm insane.
Not that I think kissing
her was a bad thing. It was quite good, actually. A heck of a lot better
than when I kissed that Rowdyruff Boy when I was 5. It was just like it
was in my dreams. Well, it was a lot more romantic in my dreams, but if
felt
the same. In my dreams usually we're out on a date at the movies or something,
not having a sleep over at her house after we've played a painful game
(in more ways than one) of Truth or Dare.
I don't know what I'm
going to do at school on Monday. Everything's changed now, although we
didn't really talk about it this morning at breakfast. We were awfully
quiet. Cassie (Andra's Mom) was giving us some weird looks, but she probably
figured we were just tired from staying up late.
Gosh, I hope
that's what she thinks!
-Buttercup
Buttercup's acting weird again! She's been all quiet and starry eyed since
she came home from Andra's this morning. It definitely makes me wonder
about what went on between those two last night.
But then again, part
of me doesn't want to know.
I was telling the truth
when I told the Professor I don't care who Buttercup likes. She could like
a Martian for all I care, but the way she's going about this crush thing
still leaves me uneasy. She's spent all day in our room, doodling and sighing
into her stupid diary. I caught a glimpse of what she was writing, lots
of stars and hearts and the initials again: A.M. and B.U. Unless Buttercup
and Andra snuck out last night to meet an 'A.M.' I've never heard of, Andra
has
to be Buttercup's crush. Which leads me back to the 'do I really
want to know what happened last night?' thought. I don't think they, y'know,
did
anything, nothing really serious anyway. But do I want to imagine my sister
making out with anybody?
Ugh, bad mental picture
there, which obviously answers that rhetorical question.
I considered talking
to the Professor about Buttercup again, but he didn't seem to think anything
strange was going on. I think he was just happy that she and I weren't
yelling or glaring at eachother. I don't think she made eye contact with
anybody today, that's how out of it Buttercup has been.
I'll watch them at
school on Monday. That should answer my questions.
-Blossom
Dear
Diary,
Buttercup's happy again!
Yea! I knew Andra couldn't be as bad as Blossom seemed to want her
to be. One night with Andra and Buttercup's back to being her old self
again.
O.K., that's a lie.
If Buttercup was back to being her old self again, she'd be teasing me
an' Blossom and trying to keep me from watching T.V. or something, but
she spent most of the day in our room, writing in her diary for hours.
I didn't ask what she was writing, I figured it was private stuff and she'd
just get mad if I asked her about it. You never know with Buttercup these
days. Maybe it's those hormoans they told us about in helth class.
Anyway, I actually
like this Buttercup better than the old Buttercup. She was nice an' quiet
and kept out of everybody else's way. Maybe I'll want the old Buttercup
back evenshually, but I don't think that's going to happen any time soon!
Oh, Blossom told me
she thinks 'something' happened between Buttercup and Andra, but I think
she's being paranoyd again. 'Speshally since she won't say what the 'something'
is.
Blossom's even weirder
than Buttercup some days. Maybe I'm the only sane Powerpuff Girl left!
Good night!
Bubbles
Dear
Diary -
I don't think I've
ever been happier in my life! Buttercup kissed me last night, and I kissed
her back. . . it was the most wonderful feeling in the world! Like. . .
like what flying must feel like. I was lighter than air for that brief
moment, then had a really hard time falling asleep afterwards. Judging
from the rustling sounds next to me, Buttercup was having a hard time,
too.
By unspoken agreement
we didn't talk about it this morning. Mom was around us the whole time,
and it wasn't something we really needed to talk about. I didn't think
so, at least. Maybe we can get together after school, or at lunch. Or maybe
not. Maybe Buttercup was having a hard time getting back to sleep because
she couldn't believe what she'd just done, and I mean that in a bad way.
Like maybe she started to second guess her decision and she thought she'd
made a bad one, and now she doesn't want to see me again!
Too many maybes. Too
much worrying. I need to stop doing that. My rational mind says that Buttercup
would never do that. She always says exactly what she means, and I'm convinced
she meant it when she said she liked me. We didn't talk about it because
it was a new experience for both of us and we both have to sort through
a lot of emotions.
And now I sound like
some crazy shrink. I'm going to bed. It'll probably take me forever to
go to sleep, since it seems like every time I close my eyes I see Buttercup's
silhouette as she moves towards me. Closer and closer until I finally close
my eyes and kiss her
Bed. Now. Sleep.

Saturday, 11:09 P.M.
Things are returning to
normal here, thank goodness. Blossom is still sending tense looks Buttercup's
way, but Buttercup's ignoring them. The night at Andra's seems to have
been therapeutic for her. She has spent almost the entire day in her room,
writing in her diary according to Blossom and Bubble's reports, but when
I've seen her she's been happy, so I don't think she's locked herself away
because she's angry. Blossom's fears were obviously unfounded, as Ms. O'Peia
and Andra both seem to be perfectly likable people. Anyone who can chip
through Buttercup's tough act the way Andra has must be a good influence.
Blossom's continuing
hostility concerns me, though. I'm beginning to worry about the bitterness
she seems to harbor towards Buttercup just as Buttercup is finally beginning
to make friends. Is Blossom really so controlling that she resents anyone
trying to break up the Powerpuff Girl triumvirate? Is Blossom jealous perhaps?
Or is there something deeper going on between the Girls that I'm just not
seeing?
Bubbles appears to
be the only one unfazed by her sisters, but that's to be expected. She's
always been the most flexible of the three. I'm sure today has been one
of her best, thanks to Buttercup being too pre-occupied with her own life
to tease her or to try and start a fight with Blossom. I wonder if she
hopes things will stay this way?
