Here I was flying through the clouds trying to clear my head. I hadn’t seen Buttercup in more than a week. Damn. Why can’t I get this girl out of my head? I went by her house earlier, but she wasn’t there. So I just flew around town, hoping I would run into her. Something led me to the park. I stayed in the wood so no one would see me. All the kids where hanging out there today. Some of them must be Buttercup’s friends. That was her world, one I couldn’t be part of.

Was I really jealous of those kids? There were boys there, too. What if she dropped me for one of them? No, she couldn’t do that, not after everything we had been through. She was my girl, even if no one else knew it but me.

Suddenly I heard a noise in the trees. I hid behind a tree and looked on. There she was, my dark angel. She looked so sad. I was about to approach her, but something stopped me, or someone.

“Hey, Buttercup,” I heard a boy say. He was trying to act cool, which burned me up. Butter didn’t looked too interested in talking to him, but he jumped in front of her.

“What do you want, Mitch?” she asked.

“I want to know why you keep blowing me off?”

“Mitch, I told. We’re just friends, and that’s all we’ll ever be.” That’s it, Buttercup. Tell this loser to get lost.

“What? I’m not good enough for you,” he said and grabbed her arm. My blood started to boil when I saw that.

“Let go of me, Mitch,” she yelled, but he only pulled her closer and kissed her hard on the mouth. I was about to come to her rescue, but then Buttercup punched him hard in the stomach. He flew forward a few feet and landed on the ground. Yeah, that’s it. Could my girl give a punch.

“Damn, Buttercup, why did you do that?” Mitch asked, trying to rise to his feet.

She approached and lifted him up. “I’m warning you, Mitch. Don’t ever do that again.” I could see the fire in her eyes. I knew her temper, and what she was capable of. I almost felt sorry for this loser.
