Chapter 6: Tired of Who I Am
(Butchercup ending pt.1)

A week, it has been a whole week since Buttercup has been avoiding both Brick and Butch. She was still pissed off at Brick, she still couldn't believe her big mouth, telling him she loved him, when clearly his arrogance towards her lately had opened her eyes. Your mouth could really deceive you in the heat of the moment, and now had Brick claiming her as his. "Fucking Brick" she was clearly only infatuated with him, it had taken all her might to not cave into her sexual frustration and call him.

And then there was Butch, he had enough decency to not take her there on the table that day at the cabin. She knew he wanted her but had enough will power to walk away. He loved her, unlike Brick, who she was now beginning to think was only lying to her to get her in bed. "And you went and fell for it" she told herself in disappointment.

She shook her head, she made her way to Blossom's room and knocked on the door. She needed someone to confide in and Blossom had volunteered a while back, so she was going to have to deal with her fucking mess too.

After a few, Blossom opened the door, a surpised look on her face "Buttercup?"

"Can we talk? I need some advice"

Blossom didn't respond, she just motioned for her to come in, sitting at the foot her bed "I'll try my best to help you Buttercup"

Buttercup smiled at her sister as she sat on the chair near her desk "I'm pretty sure by now you know the hell I'm going through"

Blossom nodded "With Brick and Butch, yeah" her cheeks tinged a slight pink "We heard Brick in your room the other day"

"Greatest mistake of my life to be honest" she scoffed

Blossom looked at her sister in disapproval "Why go along with it then if you regret it now?"

Buttercup shook her head "It's not that... it's just... I said something I'm regretting" Blossom gave her a look to encourage her to go on "I told him I loved him"

"Why would you tell him that if it's not true?"

"Blossom, it's like my mouth had a mind of its own, it just came out... trust me, if you ever have sex, stay quiet" she joked

Blossom fought off the blush creeping on her face, she couldn't believe Buttercup was no longer a virgin "God, no, I don't plan on having sex any time soon" she fought the urge to ask her what it felt like, Buttercup would be too explicit.

Buttercup couldn't help but laugh at how embarrassed her sister looked and sounded "Anyway, he suddenly became a pompous jerk out of no where"

Blossom rolled her eyes at her "What else is new? So what about Butch? Where does he stand in all this?"

"He told me he loves me, and honestly, I don't know what to feel. I mean, I like him, he was... is my best friend. I love hanging out with him and of course I'm attracted to him, he's amazing, and he's so respectful of me... he could've had me but didn't... I mean we were so close to..."

Blossom quickly covered her ears "No Buttercup! Too much information, just leave it at that" she looked at her sister in the eye "Listen, it seems to me like you are infatuated with Brick only because... you know, he was your first. As for Butch, you care for him, I mean he loves you, I truly believe you and him could work. What did Brick say when you told him you "loved" him?"
