Hairy Gregory: Yeah I did realise that when I posted the story, but I'm much too lazy to fix it x D. Anyways, I was very confuzzled by the review thing…let's just say that you review a lot, and leave it at that. : D So keep reviewing!

Lil Fang: Well, I updated.

Yeah, not too many, but whatever. Keep reviewing! This is the last chapter of this story.

Brick – Polska does not own the Powerpuff Girls or the Rowdyruff Boys, or Professor Utonium. She does, however, own Brooke and Professor Arren Ronalds.

Polska – Yep! Now review!

Be With Me

Buttercup's leather-clad chest heaved up and down heavily as she glared daggers at the green Ruff. Her emerald eyes darted from the blonde girl to the brunette boy, and she felt tears well up in her eyes. Buttercup was not one to cry, but this time she felt she needed to, and deserved to.

She had stepped out of the alley just in time to see Butch brush his lips against the other girls' cheek. She was too distraught to think clearly.

"Now Butters don't overreact…" Butch started, but Buttercup flashed her eyes towards him and took a step forward.

"Who's overreacting? I was just looking for you after you lied to me on the phone. I'm not stupid like Bubbles, Butch. I know when you're telling me the truth and when you're lying," Buttercup answered. "And don't call me Butters."

"Buttercup please," Brooke pleaded. "I was only helping-"

"Yeah, helping yourself," Buttercup interrupted. "I can't believe you would do that to a friend. Traitor."

"Buttercup please. It's not what you think…" Butch tried again, but Buttercup interrupted once more.

"No. I don't want to hear it. We are done Butch!" she cried and with that, zipped off into the air, ignoring Butch's sad, lonely face, but half-hoping he would fly after her.

He didn't.

××××

Blossom zipped downstairs, just in time to see Buttercup fly out the door. She hurried towards Bubbles and Boomer, who noticed her coming, and their mouths dropped in surprise.

"Where did Buttercup go?" she asked, without greeting them and ignoring their surprised looks.

"Blossy!" Bubbles cried and rushed over to embrace Blossom, who pushed her away.

"Never mind that now Bubbles. Where did Buttercup go?"

"She said she had a Ruff to confront or something and then she zoomed off," Boomer piped up.

"Crap. This is all my fault. All my moping and suicide attempts are-." Blossom was cut short.

"YOU TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE!" Bubbles screamed. Blossom shook her head and zipped off.

"That's the second one today," the blue Puff said sadly.

××××

The red Ruff sat on his perch by the window, staring out at the gloomy grey sky, but fell back when he saw a stream a pink amidst the grey.

"Blossom," he said coldly once the pink puff landed in his room. He was surprised to see that she waved it away impatiently.

"Yeah Brick. That's my name," she answered sardonically.

Brick was shocked at her sudden change in attitude.

"But that's not why I'm here. We have a problem."

Brick was listening attentively.

"Because of your coldness and my moping we've created an even bigger problem. Your locking up in your room has caused Butch to lie to Buttercup and my suicide attempts have caused Buttercup to become ridiculously upset at Butch. It's like our break-up is causing problems between our siblings. Bubbles is frustrated, and Boomer is scared to go anywhere near you. We can't keep doing this or our alliance shall be no more.

"Now, it's not like we have to get back together, even though that would certainly fix most of the problems. No. But we can stop moping. We can start talking to our siblings and each other again. What's me talking to you going to hurt anyways? I just recently came to my senses, and you should snap out of it. Stop intimidating everyone who comes near you.

"Are you in? Or do you want to mope for the rest of your life?" Blossom finished dramatically.

Brick was stunned. He was determined to look anywhere else in the room but not at Blossom.

"Well, I don't want t stay quarantined in my room anymore, and I want to do the stuff I normally do, like boss Butch and Boomer again, and beat them most sports," he replied, his mouth twisting into a sliver of a grin. He looked at Blossom. "But I have one question. Did you really try to commit suicide?"

Blossom stared down at the ground.

"Like I said, I came to my senses at the last minute," she whispered. It was Brick's turn to stare down at the ground.

"I'm sorry Blossom. This has been hurting me too," he said quietly and moved forward to hug the Puff leader, who rested her head on his shoulder, closing her eyes and allowing a tear to fall down her face.

××××

"He would never do that to me," Buttercup muttered as she flew home.

"Never," she murmured again, landing on the sidewalk in front of a bewildered Bubbles and Boomer.

"Buttercup you moron!" Bubbles exclaimed as she zipped towards her sister. "Butch would never like to you for no reason. It took him long enough to tell you that he loves you."

Buttercup became suddenly interested with her feet.

"I know," she whispered. "It's just so hard to see him kiss Brooke Jones' cheek." Bubbles exchanged looks with Boomer.

"They're obviously planning something for you. Or Butch is obviously going to tell you something important."

"Maybe he's going to ask you to marry him!" Boomer exclaimed. The two Powerpuffs stared at Boomer.

"Boomie," Bubbles said sweetly.

"Yeah?"

"Don't talk."

"O-." Boomer stopped and nodded.

Bubbles turned back to Buttercup. "What are you still doing here? GO!" And with that, she pushed her sister away from the Utonium residence. Buttercup took one look at Bubbles again and zipped off into the air. Then Butch landed in front of the two blues.

Bubbles slapped her head.

"Where's Butters?" Butch asked, panting slightly. Without saying a word, Bubbles pointed to a fading blue streak in the air. Butch gave one of those 'guy nods' and took off after Buttercup.

In the sky

Butch caught up with Buttercup in the air, grabbing her elbow. She whirled around and her face lit up when she saw him.

"Butch!" she cried. She was about to hug him but stopped and remembered that she was supposed to be mad at him. "What are you doing here?" she asked, sounding more distant. Butch stared at her.

"You still believe that I was cheating on you?" he said. Buttercup uncrossed her arms and looked down towards the ground.

"No, I don't. Not anymore. Not the way Bubbles says it," she replied quietly.

Butch moved a bit closer.

"And what did Bubbles say?"

"S-She said that you were probably planning a surprise for me," Buttercup whispered.

Butch moved a little more closer, his face only inches away from Buttercup's.

"And what did you say?"

"That's when I took off to find you…" Buttercup whispered again. Before she could say anything else, Butch gently placed his lips to hers and let go a few seconds later.

"I hope we're not still broken up," he said, grinning a bit. Buttercup touched her lips.

"No. That was stupid of me to say," she replied and he kissed her once more. The two greens hovered there in the air for a few seconds, before letting go again.

"Let's go back down to Earth," Butch said, cracking a smile. Buttercup smiled back and they flew back down to the outskirts of Townsville, landing in front of a wide-eyed Bubbles and Boomer.

××××

Blossom let go of Brick and stared him in the eye.

"Come on. We really have to go. I bet Bubbles thinks that I went off to attempt suicide again," Blossom said, cracking a smile for the first time in weeks.

Brick smiled back. Genuinely.

"Don't do that though."

The pink Puff chuckled. "Don't worry. I'll be around." She took off through his window. Brick stayed put for a second and took off after her.

××××

"Where do you think she went?" Bubbles asked the three anxiously. Buttercup grew annoyed. Sure she was worried for Blossom, but Bubbles' anxiety was really irritating her.

"Bubbles! Just shut up okay? Bloss is fine. She's way too sensible for suicide," the green Puff said loudly. Bubbles shut up.

"Listen to Buttercup, Bubbles. She's finally right," said a voice from behind the four. The two greens and blues turned to see Blossom hovering there, a grin plastered on her face, Brick hovering behind her.

"Yeah Bub – Hey!"

Blossom chuckled. It was nice to see old Buttercup back.

"Blossom! I thought you went off again and tried – well I'm glad you're back anyways. And you got Brick out!" Bubbles squealed.

Blossom chuckled again as she hovered down to the ground, Brick following her lead.

"Don't get any ideas Bubbles. We're friends again." Bubbles frowned.

"Nice to see ya back Leader Girl," Buttercup teased.

"Same here BC," Blossom shot back, smiling.

Boomer stared at Brick, still a bit intimidated about earlier. He smiled nervously, and jumped when Brick started to laugh.

"Don't be a wuss Boomer, I'm not tryin' to scare you," Brick said, slapping Boomer on the back. Boomer winced and grinned weakly up at the red Ruff.

"Good to talk to ya again Brick. No more quarantine?" Butch said teasingly, this time slapping Brick on the back, who slapped him back.

"Nope."

Later that day; the Utonium Residence

Bubbles was sprawled on the couch, resting her head on Boomer's chest, who was watching Butch and Buttercup play video games. Buttercup, naturally, was beating Butch. Brick sat against the wall, while Blossom lay stomach down on the carpet. The two were talking again, laughing at each others' jokes and laughing about the experience during the past month.

That's when Bubbles spoke up.

"Um guys?"

Everyone stopped; including Butch and Buttercup would never stop playing just to hear something a Puff or Ruff had to say.

"I have something important to tell you…" Bubbles stammered, lifting her head up off of Boomer's chest. She felt uncomfortable with everyone staring at her.

"Not to long ago, during the little um, episode that was going on…" Brick and Blossom shared guilty looks, "I got a call from my vocal teacher…a-and he said that during that recital I had a month and a half ago, some recording person had come to hear everyone sing, and he was very happy with my voice. So um, I h-have to go…"

"Go where?" Boomer asked, now confused.

"A-Away. A-Away from T-Townsville."

Blossom shook her head. "I knew it," she murmured. Bubbles turned to stare at her.

"Y-You k-knew?"

"Of course I did! With your voice…and besides, that guy was sitting next to me at your recital." Buttercup sniggered, and Blossom glared at her.

"He told me that he considered signing you, so I guess he thought you had what it takes…"

Boomer sat in silence. He was overwhelmed by everything that was happening. First Buttercup running away, then Blossom and Brick breaking up, then Buttercup and Butch breaking up and now this.

"No," he said, breaking the silence. Everyone turned their gazes to him.

"Ex-cuse me?" Bubbles asked, placing her hands on her hips, annoyed.

"No. It's too much. What will I do without you? It's all too much." Boomer stood up and hurried out the door without a second look back. Bubbles was about to follow him when Brick jumped up and grabbed her arm.

"No Bubbles. Leave him. He needs to think," he told her. Bubbles took a step back. She sat down on the couch, and stared at her feet, her eyes filling with tears.

××××

Boomer flew through his own window and landed face-up on his bed. He stared up at the ceiling, in shock. He wasn't expecting Bubbles' news. He didn't want her to go. He wanted to go with her. He wanted to be with her. Why didn't she just understand?

"Why doesn't anybody understand?" he whispered.

Later that week

Bubbles stared sadly at the photograph of her and Boomer she was packing into her already-over-filled suitcase. It was one of her favourites; it was a picture of her and Boomer with his arms around her sitting in the grass. It was taken a year ago, when they were fifteen. She was going to miss him too much.

"Should I do this?" Bubbles thought aloud. She had doubts about it, but she knew it was the right thing to do.

"This is what I want to do. If Boomer can't understand that…"

There was a knock on the door, and Bubbles hurried to answer it. She threw open the door and saw that it was Blossom. She smiled weakly at Bubbles.

"Hey Bubbles. Y-Your ride is here," Blossom said. She chuckled through her tears. Bubbles reached forward and hugged her sister tightly, holding on for at least two minutes before finally letting go.

"Just one more thing Blossy. Don't go around lonely for the rest of your life. I know you want him back. My advice to you; just take him back. I won't force you, but you haven't gotten anything that you wanted for a while. You deserve this Blossy. You deserve to be happy. I will miss you," Bubbles said, before lifting her suitcase(s) and smiled sadly at Blossom, who stood there stunned for at least a minute. She followed Bubbles.

Downstairs

Boomer stood at the foot of the stairs, and waited for Bubbles to reach the bottom of the stairs. He placed a gentle kiss on her lips and lifted one of her suitcases.

"Don't worry Boomie. I'll be back," Bubbles whispered, gently caressing his face. She kissed him again, and then lifted her suitcase again, pushing open the door, the six and the Professor and Doctor following her. Bubbles stopped in her tracks. There it was, parked a few feet away from her. A long black stretch limo.

"It's pretty isn't it," Buttercup chuckled. Bubbles smiled back at her and allowed the chauffer to take her suitcases.

The Professor reached her first and hugged her tightly.

"Bye Bubbles. I'll miss you a lot. Come visit us soon," he whispered. Bubbles nuzzled her face in his shoulder. "I love you."

Doctor Ronalds hugged her next. "Bye sweetie. I'm glad that I got to know you."

Bubbles gave her a funny look. "You sound as though I'll never see you again," she answered jokingly.

She reached Brick and Butch next. Without warning and embraced them both, not caring for the embarrassed and shocked looks on their faces.

"Treat Buttercup nice," she whispered to Butch and then turned to Brick.

"I know you miss her. I just want you to know that if you want her, you should have her and not Princess," she said quietly. Brick stood their stunned as she moved onto Buttercup next.

"Bye BB. Don't forget to thank me in your acceptance speeches," Buttercup joked, causing Bubbles to chuckle a little. She turned to Blossom and embraced her as tightly as she could, her own tears streaming down her face.

"Bye Blossom. Remember what I said…"

She left Boomer for last. As she turned to face him, she saw that he had his own tears falling down his face. He was the only Rowdyruff to actually show his emotions when he was upset. She caressed his face and leaned in to kiss him softly.

"Don't worry Boomie. I'll be back," she whispered, her forehead pressed against his. He kissed her forehead and smiled.

"I know," he whispered back.

As she sat in the limousine and stared out the window – tears falling silently down her own cheeks – Bubbles saw that Brick and Blossom were holding hands again, and Boomer was smiling. She waved good-bye as the car started, and still waved, only until her family was out of sight.

She would see them again no matter what.
