"I have nothing to live for!" Gepetto shouted back, as his hands were slipping off of a tire that he had been holding onto.

"Gepetto!" Strudel shouted, letting one crutch out from underneath him. "Please grab on!" he bent down and stuck his crutch out.

"Strudel, don't!" warned California.

"Strudel, I almost killed you, man" Gepetto said. "I don't deserve to live"

"Stop filling me with guilt, damn it" Strudel said. "Grab onto my fucking crutch before I change my mind"

Gepetto was still struggling to hold onto the tire.

"Gepetto" Lemonade said. "I have feelings for you. I never admitted this before because I'm scared. Please grab onto Strudel's crutch. He needs you for Battle of the Bands"

"Do you really feel that way, Lemonade?" Gepetto asked.

"Yes, Gepetto, I really do" Lemonade said.

"Please, man" Strudel extended his crutch once more.

Lemonade took it, seeing how weak Strudel was with his broken leg.

"What?" Gepetto asked. "You don't like me shirtless?"

"I just see that you're cold" Lemonade giggled. "You probably have frost bite"
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSOIJNOvkg
Gepetto was shivering. "Do- do you really have feelings for me?" he asked.

Lemonade kissed him. "Yeah" she smiled.
