Author POV:

It was the next day early in the morning and Buttercup was walking to class, holding her backpack sleeves tightly

"Hey Buttercup!" Butch yells across the halls, startling everybody from Butch's deep raspy voice he has. Buttercup jumps and tries to run away from him, not daring to look at him. "Hey! Why are you running off?" Butch runs after her, but Buttercup runs faster and goes to different halls to confuse Butch.

She didn't want another unexpected kiss from her best friend. She was also embarrassed that she couldn't even make eye-contact with him and tell him what's going on with her, they're best friends! She tells him everything, but her telling him this could ruin something.

She was scared...

She was terrified to know there was still something else she was forgetting, she didn't want to forget her memories with Butch, and all she wanted was to get answers, unfortunately she couldn't plus being with him at the moment was scary.

It was gym class, and Buttercup was sitting on the bleachers while she saw everybody else do laps and push ups. Buttercup was deep in thought, that she didn't notice her friend Robin sitting down next to her, "When is your surgery?" She asks Buttercup, "Two weeks from now." Buttercup response, and keeps her eyes looking straight forward.

"Are you scared?"

"Of course. There will be memories I'm going to forget." Buttercup whispers, pushing her knees to her chest. "I just hope I don't forget you and other important people in my life." Buttercup saids, sadly smiling at her.

Robin wraps her arm around Buttercup's shoulder and pulls her closer to her. "You won't." She tells Buttercup.

Buttercup is walking home when she suddenly hears Butch's voice, "Hey Buttercup," Butch says, grabbing her by the wrist. "Aren't you supposed to be in football practice?" Buttercup asks him, "Yeah, But I lied that I had a stomach ache" Butch chuckles, rubbing the back of his neck shyly.

"Why would you-"

"So I could walk home with you silly, I miss our walks home and I miss our talks." Butch said, his cheeks blushing a red color. Buttercup nods, and the walk is awkward.

Butch breaks the silence "Did something happened? That you have been acting strange lately?" Butch asks, "No, I'm perfectly fine, I just had a bad day." Buttercup clenches her jaw.

"Stop making up terrible lies," Butch yells at Buttercup, "But I told you I'm fine." Buttercup mumbled, her lips wobbled. Buttercup looks away, and suddenly feels Butch intertwine their hands together.

Buttercup doesn't say anything and continues walking with him home.

She didn't like lying especially to her best friend. It felt wrong, but...she's going to forget, so it was better to tell before it's too late and make him more confused. What worried her is that once she tells him, his heart will be torn apart.

'Please don't go away, I don't want to forget your kiss, your hugs, your words, please...please don't forget, I love you...

I'll always love you.'
