What They Really Think

Chapter 2

ButchxButtercup

Going Under

Buttercup's POV

I spit out some blood,m glaring at the raven-haired boy in front of me. He smirks at me, twitching. I growl and jump him. I lean into his ear and hiss,

"Now I will tell you what I've done for you -

50 thousand tears I've cried.

Screaming, deceiving and bleeding for you -

And you still won't hear me.

(going under)

Don't want your hand this time - I'll save myself.

Maybe I'll wake up for once (wake up for once)

Not tormented daily defeated by you

Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom"

"Aww, look, the sissy knows how to sing!", he says, laughing crazily. I grab his throat with my hand and continue.

"I'm dying again

I'm going under (going under)

Drowning in you (drowning in you)

I'm falling forever (falling forever)

I've got to break through

I'm going under"

He was so clueless! I loved him! His face starts to turn purple under my throat-crushing hold. I release him reluctantly. He grins evilly, striking. I dodge, then retaliate. It was like a dance of death. The bloodlust and love wage a war in my body, and I smirk back at him.

"Blurring and stirring - the truth and the lies.

(So I don't know what's real) So I don't know what's real and what's not (and what's not)

Always confusing the thoughts in my head

So I can't trust myself anymore"

He was so stupid! I pucnh him square in the mouth. He hisses, and lunges at me.

"I'm dying again

I'm going under (going under)

Drowning in you (drowning in you)

I'm falling forever (falling forever)

I've got to break through"

"Give it up, Puff. You'll never win. Especially singing all the time!", he scoffs. I scream and kick him in his nuts with no mercy. He was completely missing the point of this fight! I glare at him, he was writhing on the ground in pain.

"I'm...

So go on and scream

Scream at me I'm so far away (so far away)

I won't be broken again (again)

I've got to breathe - I can't keep going under"

"When I get up... You're dead...", he groans, glaring at me. Anger seethes from every part of my body.

"I'm dying again

I'm going under (going under)

Drowning in you (drowning in you)

I'm falling forever (falling forever)

I've got to break through"

"Hahaha, you... you're a..." He calls me something bad. Really bad. I kick him again, and he screams in pain.

"YOU'RE MISSING THE POINT!", I shout. He gets up, shaking slightly.

"No I'm not. The point is, you want to kick me in my jewels, and I'm not gonna let you do that." I scream in frustration, and launch myself at him. He laughs, and dodges. I get up, and start screaming the words.

I'm going under (going under)

I'm going under (drowning in you)

I'm going under

"Yes you are!", he yells, smacking me in the head. I black out.

"-cup! Buttercup!", a voice rings out. I wake up to a pair of black shades, staring me in the eyes. I jump, and zoom up into the air. Ace looks up at me.

"You okay, Buttacup?", he asks. I rub my head.

"Where is he?", I ask coldly.

"Where is who?", Ace asks.

"BUTCH!", I shriek. Ace points to a dark green streak making victory laps in the sky. I growl, and launch myself up, ignoring Ace's wave. Stupid guys! Oblivious, all of them! I tackle Butch, blocking the feelings in my heart. Our green streaks meld together, and we crash into a tree. The next thing I know, I'm in my bed at home.

"Darn, I almost won!", I mutter. "And next time, love isn't going to help his beating."
