Chapter 6: September 1, 2007

:::::::::::::::
First Day of School (Sophomore)

"Alright ladies, sophomore year," Blossom said excitedly.

"Yup, nothing will go wrong this year," Bubbles said.

"Let's hope," Buttercup added as they walked through the gate. They sat at their usual table in the morning and talked, having another "sister" time thing.

"Second year coming to this school, aren't you guys excited?" a lady at the front gate greeted.

"Yup."

"Sure."

"Whatever." They all said carelessly as they walked past her.

Blossom's P.O.V.

I promised myself to focus on my grades and less on boyfriends. I wouldn't want my heart to be broken twice. I looked through my schedule and saw that my first class was Geometry II. I had that class with no one I knew. I walked to the room and found the teacher, Mr. Cate. I sat in my seat and looked around the room.

Great. No one I knew was here. Oh well, the better to focus on the subject... I guess. I thought everything would go smoothly in this class- that is until a certain someone poked me from behind.

"Blossom," he whispered. I turned and saw Brick. Memories of when we were together flashed through my mind but I stopped thinking about it.

"Brick," I said, avoiding eye contact.

"Let's just forget what happened over the summer... okay?" he said with a hopeful voice.

"Brick, I can't. What you did nearly ruined Townsville. I don't think I can forgive you." He looked at me with a confused face.

"Ruined Townsville? What are you talking about?"

"Townsville went from number 27 down to 4."

"What?" he exclaimed in a low voice.

"I can't forget it Brick. And I can't be your friend either." I turned back around to focus on the teacher.

Lunch

"So did you talk to Brick by any chance?" Buttercup asked me as we walked to our usual table.

"Yeah why?"

"Because Butch talked to me," she replied.

"And Boomer talked to me," Bubbles added.

"Butch had this stupid act where he had no idea what I was talking about when I said that he almost destroyed Townsville," Buttercup scoffed.

"Why would they think we would want them back?" Bubbles questioned.

"Because," Boomer interrupted. They Rowdyruffs came up from behind us.

"We don't know what we did wrong," Boomer finished. The three of us scoffed and rolled our eyes.

"As if," Bubbles snapped.

"Please," Buttercup snarled. I shook my head.

"I don't believe you," I said as I turned to Brick.

"I- I don't know, Bloss... What did I do wrong? I just heard you saying 'Forget Brick, who cares about them'... What happened?"

"I do not want to talk about it. It just hurt to watch you betray us. You betrayed me, Brick. How could you do that after you promised not to?"

"Blossom I don't know what-"

"Save it," I whispered, then I called out to my sisters, "Girls, we're leaving." They followed me as I threw away the rest of my food and left the guys alone.

::::::::::::
Butch's P.O.V. (Same Day, Morning)

I scanned through my schedule in homeroom (which I luckily had with Buttercup). After I was done with my schedule, I looked through Buttercup's schedule; she sat two seats in front of me. She has five classes with me! Including first period.

When the bell rang, I tried to catch up with Buttercup who practically ran out the door. That girl was fast. I had no idea where she was. I finally saw her walk into a classroom. I ran in after her. It was Algebra II with Ms. What's her face. I don't really care for her name. I sat next to Buttercup. She didn't take a glance at me the whole class and I was positive she knew I was next to her.

I decided to talk to her in second period. It was Art with Mr. Henry.

"Buttercup, what did I do wrong?" I asked. She scoffed.

"Let's pay attention to the teacher okay?" she suggested. She faked a smile and turned back to the teacher. Why is she acting as if she doesn't know me? And since when does she want to pay attention to the teacher?

"Um, let's not," I grinned back. She rolled her eyes but turned to me anyway.

"One minute, that's all you have. Make it fast," she said in an annoyed tone.

"What happened over the summer?" She turned back to the teacher but she still talked to me. She looked at the clock across the room; probably waiting for this minute to be over.

"Have you seen Townsville? Have you even seen the damage you and your brothers caused?" she growled under her breath, still not taking her eyes off the teacher.

"Uh no?" She immediately turned to me.

"You almost destroyed Townsville!" she whispered in a louder voice.

"I think you're overreacting, I didn't destroy Townsville."

"You almost did. Since that day, so many crimes have been going on: bank robberies, stealing, invading people's homes, and ruining buildings."

"What. The heck are you talking about?"

"Oh please, Butch. Don't act dumb."

"Buttercup I'm not!"

"So you really are just dumb. Plus I saw you on the news!" What the heck is she talking about? I didn't do any crime!

"... Even if I did, it would probably be because of you," I said.

"Me? What did I do?"

"Some kid just came to our house who was sent by you during the summer-"

"By me? I never-"

"He showed us something that you girls recorded, in case we wouldn't believe him. And I remember exactly what you three said, 'And I don't have feelings for Butch.. and Brick and Boomer. They don't matter to us' That's what my brothers and I heard. Why did you do that? I mean out of nowhere, you just say that." Buttercup stared at me.

Buttercup's P.O.V.

How did he know? How did he know that I ever said that? This is crazy. Who was that kid I supposedly sent to them? How did Butch ever find out? So many questions running through my mind. Butch snapped me out of it.

"What did I do wrong?" he repeated. I couldn't answer that now.

"... Your time's up. I'm done talking." I prayed for the bell to ring. Only ten minutes til Lunch then I'm Butch-free.

Lunch

"So did you talk to Brick by any chance?" I asked Blossom.

"Yeah why?"

"Because Butch talked to me," I answered.

"And Boomer talked to me," Bubbles said.

"Butch had this stupid act where he had no idea what I was talking about when I said that he almost destroyed Townsville," I explained. I thought about it again. His face was totally serious when he told me that. But it's impossible, he was on the news because of his crime.

"Why would they think we would want them back?" Bubbles scoffed.

"Because," Boomer's voice softly said. They Rowdyruffs came up from behind us.

"We don't know what we did wrong," he finished. The three of us scoffed and rolled our eyes. They're still keeping up that dumb act?

"As if," Bubbles barked, but it came off softer than what I expected from her.

"Please," I hissed at Butch. Blossom shook her head in disappointment I guess. Butch stood close behind me.

"I honestly don't know what I did Buttercup," he whispered to me. I turned to him.

"Tell me what you do know about this then."

"Not much," he quickly said, "Just that I heard you and your sisters saying you don't care for us anymore and that we don't matter. So we just guessed that as a break up?"

"You guessed right," I murmured. He raised a brow.

"You think we wouldn't find out?" I scoffed, "How could you lie to me Butch? I thought I actually meant something to you."

"You do!" he instantly blurted out.

"Then why did you do it?"

"I still don't know what you are talking about."

"Butch you're a criminal," I whispered.

"I stopped long ago!"

"When will this lying stop?" I sighed and rolled my eyes. I grabbed all my things and walked away, leaving him behind.

:::::::
Boomer's P.O.V. (Same Day, Lunch)

"And... I guess you don't feel the same way..." I softly said.

"No, I don't," Bubbles said as she narrowed her eyes. Whatever I did, must've been really bad, seeing how Bubbles is no longer the cute and innocent. No... She is, it's just that she doesn't show it to me anymore.

"I'm not a bad guy," I added before she could walk away.

"Then," she calmed down and sighed, "Why did you do all this?"

"I promise, I didn't do anything. I won't ever do any crime."

"That's what I thought too. But I was horribly wrong. You have to stop lying to me Boomer. What you heard that summer from that kid's phone was right. I don't have feelings for you anymore Boomer. What you did is unforgivable..."

"Bubbles you've got to believe me."

"I tried. I thought 'Maybe that wasn't really Boomer, what if he really is a good guy?' But it just doesn't make sense if it was that way. I saw you doing crime." She walked away from me with her sisters. My brothers and I looked at them then at each other.

"I don't get it," Brick choked out.

"What if they don't talk to us anymore... What if they hate us," I feared.

"Let's hope not," Brick said. Butch came up to them.

"What is up with her?" he scoffed.

"Well we can't be mad," I said, "Because whatever it is, they say it's our fault." Brick and Butch shook their heads at me.

"It could be their fault. Every girl – Powerpuffs or not, gets full of drama."

"So this 'crime' we apparently did, could just be... buying them an ugly present or talking to another girl."

"Do you think they care about that?" I wondered. Butch shrugged.

"Maybe. But if 'crime' means something like that, then what do they mean when they say 'You almost destroyed the city because of that'?"

"... I don't know. It could mean... we almost destroyed their... feelings? I don't know."

::::::::::::: N.P.O.V

"Hello?" Buttercup answered through her phone.

"Hey Buttercup, it's Butch." He waited for a reply but didn't get one.

"Before you hang up," he quickly begged, "Just hear me out." No reply but he was sure she was still on.

"I know you think that I did something seriously wrong. What exactly happened?" he asked. Buttercup waited a while and hesitated before she spoke.

"You and brothers broke your promise that you gave to us. Do you remember when we first saw each other in high school? Do you remember that I didn't want to give you a chance?"

"Yeah, but what does that have to do with anything?" She ignored him and continued.

"I only gave in because – yeah we had a deal- but I also thought that you were a good guy. I thought I can put at least a little trust in you after that first night when I gave you a chance... But I regret doing that."

"You regret ever giving me a chance?" Butch uttered.

"What were we thinking?" Buttercup cried, "We couldn't pull it off. We're made to be enemies, nothing more. Going back to that would probably be..." She left her sentence hanging. Butch was quiet on the other end. Buttercup drew a deep breath and sighed.

"Why would you be with me, knowing that you are still like you were ten years ago?" she mumbled. He was still quiet, speechless, not knowing what to say.

"I honestly don't know what you were thinking when you thought I wouldn't find out about this," she continued, "How could you keep it from me? You made me think that I could trust you. I was stupid to ever believe you, to ever think that this would work out." She got no reply from him and instantly hung up.

:::::::

"I'm gonna go take a walk," Blossom announced. She noticed that no one listened; Buttercup was on her phone and Bubbles was up in her room while the Professor was in the lab. She shrugged, put on her jacket, and walked out the door.

She continued to walk down the block, head down, and eyes focused on the ground.

"Blossom!" a voice called out. Her head snapped up and turned to the voice. It was her friend, Lexie. (A/N: Glooberglag aka Lexie sent me an IM and asked if her name could be in the chapter. If you want your name in a chapter too, I'm happy to do so. Just IM or review the info.)

She turned fully around and waved to her. She wanted to get back to her walk so she turned back around. She bumped into a hard chest. She looked up and saw Brick. The smile from when she saw Lexie disappeared and it became a frown.

"Brick," she said bluntly. She walked past him and continued her walk.

"Blossom, wait!" he called out.

I'm done with these games

How could you keep this from me.

Why would you even think of lying to me?

I honestly don't know what registered in your mind, to think I wouldn't find out.

I thought you gave up evil.

Why would you be with me, knowing that you are a criminal.

I thought you'd be better than this.

As long as you keep this up, we're done.

Why do you keep doing this?

You meant so much to me before this happened.

I should've known. Being evil is in your blood, that won't change.

I should have known this wouldn't work from the beginning.

What we're we thinking? We can't pull this off. We're made to be enemies, no more no less.

Being enemies like before is probably best.

You know, when I first told the professor about dating you, he refused. He said, "They were made for evil. I don't think you should date them." But I was so stupid to defend you, saying, "No, they've changed. They're not evil anymore." I should have listened to him in the first place.

I was stupid to believe this would work out between us.

Sure it was nice when it started, or so I thought, but it was all just a game for you. When you told me you loved me, that was lie too?

Love is like magic, but magic can sometimes be an illusion. These lines blurted from the Powerpuff Girl's mouths without their intention whenever they talked to the Rowdyruff Boys.
