Well, you all wanted me to continue this story and I know it's been quite a while, but, I gave in... So here is the next part of Some Things Change... It's going to switch from story mode to diary mode a lot... It's the first time I've done a story like this...

Disclaimer: Powerpuff Girls are not mine but the story is... Ahhh if only I DID own the PPG... Nice thought, eh?


Chapter 2

~~~{~~~{~~@

Buttercup was waiting by the telephone. She didn't know what she was waiting for. She wasn't expecting a call, especially not from him. She was hoping, but not expecting. She sat, silently, on the blue couch, clicking her boots together anxiously.

The phone made no sound after twenty minutes of waiting in vain. She decided to change her train of thought onto something else. She walked out on the front porch, pulled out a ciggarette, and lit it up. She breathed in the soft smoke as she watched it dance and twirl around her fingers.

Dad told you not to smoke on the porch. She heard a scolding voice tell her. She turned and shrunk at the sight of her little sister scolding her. Buttercup was tough, but there was one thing she hated doing, and that was disappointing her family.

I'm not gonna put it out on the porch... I promise. She told her blue clad sister. Bubbles just shook her head understandingly.

Busy, I know you're not the happiest person right now, and I understand, but you can't cut your life out completely. Your eighteen years old. Dad gave us life... Live it... Buttercup looked at her sister with teary eyes. She quickly turned away.

Go away, Bubbles... She said, taking another drag from her Red. Bubbles looked at her sister, hurt.

Busy... It's ok... I underst-

Go away, Bubbles! Just leave me be! Busy yelled. Bubbles shook her head and went inside without another word. Buttercup was sitting with her face hiding in her jet black hair. She looked down at the half burned ciggarette. She lifted her heel and smothered the remainder of it on the bottom of her boot and threw it in the street. She thought about Butch's words.

If you think it's so bad, maybe we should just end it...'

Maybe I should Butch...' She thought to herself. Maybe I should...'

Buttercup walked inside the house and straight to the phone. She picked it up and dialed Butch's number.

She heard his voice call.

Butch, can I come over? She asked.

He replied.

I'll see you in a bit... Buttercup then hung up the phone. She went upstairs and told Bubbles what she was going to do. Bubbles told her to be strong and to think about the rest of her life.

Don't let your emotions get to you. You'll be fine... Bubbles then gave her a strong hug before Busy left.

Thanks, Bubbles... You always were my favorite sister... Busy told her, then went on her way to Butch's house. On her way there, Busy was trying to figure out what to say. Why was she going to do what she was about to do? Because he told her to.

That's a stupid reason. She said out loud. But it was true. She wasn't happy with what he was doing for her. She was miserable with how he was treating her. Neglect and ignorance was no way to live. He told her to end it. It hadn't been the first time. He told her many times to leave him if she was so unhappy. Leave him and find someone better to treat her better. But she stayed. She wasn't sure why she stayed. Perhaps it was because she wanted to prove that she could. That he didn't hurt her that much. She didn't want him to keep the pride that he could hurt anyone and get away with it. She didn't know why she stayed. All she knew was that she wasn't staying any longer, and that was that.
