First Person

I can't believe how everything turned out after that night. Just when I thought that it was over there was something that was pulling me toward them. I couldn't stop thinking of them no matter how hard I tried. Even after trying to forgetting it happened, something just wouldn't let me forget. Now that I think back upon it I'm glad that I still remember what happened that day. It brings a smile to my face when I do think of it; it's something I wouldn't want to forget about now.

Butch P.O.V

I can't believe what I'm feeling. It's so new to me and no matter what it won't go away. I haven't seen Buttercup since the night I kissed her. She's been avoiding me for a week now and every time I go to her house her sisters says she's not there. I know that their lying but I decided to just not push them. I keep pacing my room and no matter how hard I try to keep my cool I keep getting upset and I've already punched at least 3 holes in my room wall.

I keep think of that night and how I couldn't get the look on her face out of my head. She had a look on her face like she was scared, no terrified, of what just happened. Then before I knew it she was closing the door in my face without a word being said. After thinking about that I groan and punch yet another hole in my wall. Then I looked at my clock sitting on my dresser and seen that it was only 5:41 pm and the sun was still high in the sky.

I grabbed my skateboard and my helmet and decided that I would go to the skate park to get my mind off the situation. As I made my way downstairs, Boomer was just coming into the house with a big grin on his face. He jumped over the side of the couch and put his arms behind his head. I didn't bother asking what he was so happy about, I was still in a bad mood.

Once I made it to the skate park I started to head towards the half pipes. But my feet started to take me towards the ramp and when I finally noticed that that's where I was heading I was already standing in front of it. Suddenly I started to remember Buttercup up at the top of the ramp a few days after I meet her. I made my way to the top of the ramp and tried to figure out that move she was doing.

After a while I was still trying to figure out that move and when I was about to go for it again I heard someone gasp and looked over to see Buttercup just turning the corner. Our eyes meet and then she turned her head and ran off. 'Go after her' a voice in my head said and before I knew it I was off the ramp running after her.

Buttercup P.O.V

I was tired of being in my room for a week and my sisters thought it would be time for me to have some fresh air so I decided to go to the skate park. I decided to walk there and I had my skateboard under my arm. Once I got to the park I looked up to see the last person I wanted to see, Butch. I guess he heard me because he looked over towards me and meet my eyes. For a quick second I couldn't look away, those deep forest green eyes had me in a trance. Then I came back to reality and I turned around and ran from the spot hoping that he didn't follow me.

Before I knew it someone had a hold of my shoulders and was turning me around. Everything was in a blur when that happened then I realized it was Butch who grabbed me. He was breathing hard and it took him a while to catch his breath. He had a good grip on my shoulders, strong but not too tight that it would hurt me. I realized that I had gotten goose bumps along my arms when he grabbed me and then I couldn't help but look up at him.

When I looked up at him I saw that he was staring at me. I felt the heat rising to my face but I forced it down. "Well, you got me what do you want?" I said looking everywhere but at him

He didn't say anything for a long time and as time went on I was starting to get irritated. Just when I was about to blow he started to speak. "I'm- I'm" I looked at him and seen that his head was down and his bangs were covering his eyes. For the first time in a while I decided to take a good look at Butch.

His hair wasn't all spiked up today like it would be any other day. It was in a ponytail above his shoulders and he had a bang. His clothes looked like a mess, like he just decided to throw something on not caring how he looked. He was wearing a black wrinkled t-shirt and a pair of khakis with black and green Nikes. He's usually dressed better, not in a business or classy way just in a more want to impress way.

Then he takes in a deep breath and lifts his head to look me right in the eyes. I try to look away but I can't his gaze is hard and intense. "Buttercup I- I'm… I'm sorry that I kissed you that day" My eyes widened when he said that and I thought I could see his cheeks turn the slightest shade of pink.

He still wouldn't look me in the eyes and still had his bangs shading his eyes. "Butch." I said quietly but he didn't seem to hear me. "Butch." I said again, this time loud enough for him to hear me but he just kept looking down. It started to tick me off. "Dammit Butch look at me!" This time he looked up. He seemed a little shocked but then looked angry.

"What the hell did you yell for?" "What do you mean, what did I yell for you were just looking at the ground like a dumbass, dumbass." As we yelled back and forth it didn't occur to either of us that Butch was still holding me. Until I looked down at him and he looked too. "Oh… um, my bad I guess I just forgot." Butch said and he quickly moved his hands back to his sides. We stood in silence for what felt like hours but really just a few seconds.

Butch P.O.V

The silence seemed to stretch on for forever. I was beginning to lose patience and was going to say something when Buttercup beat me to it. "So Butchy you must have missed me a lot huh." I was caught off guard when she asked that, that I was lost for a second. "What! No, the only reason I apologized is because my brothers missed having you over." I turned from her just to hide the small blush that crept to my face. 'What is happening to me? I don't blush, I never blushed before. Am I sick or something or could it be that I-'

"Hey! Earth to Butchy… What are you doing idiot." Buttercup said then wacked my shoulder and I was brought back to reality.

"Owww! What's your problem?" "So are you going to walk me home or not idiot? I can't waste my time with you all day." She said ignoring my question and walking off. I stood there dumbfounded and decided to tag along.

We talked and argued like usual forgetting about what happened between us. Or trying to stay distracted and not think about it. I tried to keep distance between us so that we didn't touch. 'I don't know what to think anymore I have no idea how I feel about anything, why is it that she confuses me so much? She's just another girl; I'm sure I could make her fall for me and then dump her just like the others. Easy.'

"Well Butchy I'm going, see ya whenever" Buttercup said and before I could stop myself I grabbed her wrist.

"Wait BC." I was surprised by my actions and let go of her wrist as soon as I realized what I did. "I want a rematch from when you beat me. I won't let this go so easy"

"Sure Butch. Name the time and place and I'll kick your butt again just like last time." Buttercup said having an evil grin on her face.

"Okay, park in 2 days and make sure you bring witnesses so they can witness me beating you."

"Fine." Buttercup said we shook hands and then went our separate ways.
