"What are you gonna do?" asked Strudel.

"Oh, you'll see... tomorrow, we're driving" Lemonade said, as Doreen and Fiona drove past in a white convertible.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAEKX2nZCzRC
"Alright" said Strudel. "I'm driving though."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAa9CIVdvalA
Later on, it was storming really hard. Waffles' doorbell rang. Tom was standing there with an umbrella.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA0JNNFUlcc6
"I live on Apple" he said.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAYaRVj1A4TI
"I don't care" said Waffles. "How do you know where I live?"
564Please respect copyright.PENANAaaz3LNwcFH
"Pia told me" said Tom.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA5Z4tK6k2Yj
"Damn her" said Waffles. "What are you doing here?"
564Please respect copyright.PENANA4TRAD4ccBg
"Just thought I'd drop by" said Tom. "Let you know where I lived."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAy2txcVFcX7
"I really don't care" said Waffles.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAgUFoT7MP8P
"So.." Tom continued, "You still with Smog?"
564Please respect copyright.PENANAaTpIiIJkh2
"Tom" said Waffles. "Go home, please."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAysy3AK156j
"God, I want you." said Tom, and he pushed her down on the couch.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAksxKAsH3Yg
"Tom!" Waffles screamed, "Stop it!" her cries were drowned out by the thunder. The doorbell rang again. "Come in!" Waffles cried. Tom looked up as the door opened.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA7Scl5UOg7M
Strudel walked in, soaking wet. "What are you doing, Tom?" he asked, running his fingers through his dripping wet hair.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAerI5HeaFpN
Tom jumped up, "Working on Spanish" he said.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAML2LeyojV4
"Yeah right" said Strudel, pushing Tom. "Waffles is my friend, leave her alone."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAqnFNBSFBeJ
"Are you Smog?" asked Tom.
564Please respect copyright.PENANATzDLncfnjC
"He's not as cool as me" said Strudel, popping his collar. "But almost."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAEDPacsLPPu
"Oh!" said Tom. "You're Strawberry's boyfriend! You're Strudel! I recognize you from her Myspace page!"
564Please respect copyright.PENANAC7apYsVXdx
"Yeah, I am" said Strudel. "And I'm your worst nightmare."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAbf2BumYceb
"You don't scare me" said Tom. "Except you're getting me all wet."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAmkOXM6N4Bk
"And I'll get you even wetter" Strudel squeezed his shirt on Tom.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA6copcsHOin
"Stop, man" said Tom.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAccCi45AOZ6
"No" said Strudel, and he pushed Tom into the wall. "Go home, bitch"
564Please respect copyright.PENANAhXggoXM3hk
"Waffles, I'll see you later" said Tom, who was bleeding.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAjdj5dqX4Qs
"Don't get blood on the rug!" Strudel called after him.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAYxcYpCAbjf
"Thanks, Strudel" Waffles said once Tom left. "So what did you want?"
564Please respect copyright.PENANABGTfajg9yH
"I wanted to make sure that we were cool" said Strudel.
564Please respect copyright.PENANANRIfZCiJAi
"Okay?" said Waffles.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAwwRP9C7i8b
"What happened this summer shouldn't have happened" Strudel said, still dripping wet.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAgLa3FCMPfc
"I'm sorry" said Waffles.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAeFj16KBsKG
"We were both unfair to Strawberry." He gave her a hug. "Well, I've gotta go, so I'll see you tomorrow."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAdH6xtxetaF
Strudel walked back outside, where it was still storming. He walked to the pond and just stood there. A loud clap of thunder sounded.
564Please respect copyright.PENANApvMITC9tnY
"Hey" a voice come up behind him.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAKbEayVPsQS
He turned around. There was Strawberry, her hair dripping in her face. She was beautiful. He hugged her, both of them soaking wet, and they kissed in the rain. Their arms stayed around each other for what seemed like hours. Strudel felt like he was in heaven when he was holding Strawberry. The rain come down even harder.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA0MppNsnYUJ
"Lets go somewhere dry" Strudel suggested, as he took out his phone. "I'll see if my mom can come and pick us up." He tried dialing the number. "The service is out. Try yours."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAnHp13HdjIC
Strawberry's service was out, too. "The signal's down" she said. "We could go to Snitram Nur"
564Please respect copyright.PENANAAxBCrRUWyO
"Lets go to the gazebo" said Strudel.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAM7kLR7dd7w
So they walked hand-in-hand, in the pouring rain, until they got to the gazebo and sat down. They kissed for a while, and then Strawberry pulled away. "Strudel" she said. "I have to tell you something."
564Please respect copyright.PENANABxtzDNIph7
"What?" asked Strudel, still soaking wet.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA9zWS0YUvbo
"Remember when you fell in the pond last year?" Strawberry spoke quietly.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA7YOI3fRra8
"Yeah" said Strudel. "What about it?"
564Please respect copyright.PENANA7kZalyonvt
"Well" said Strawberry, "After you kissed Waffles, I told Pancake something that I thought I meant, but now I realize that I didn't mean it."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAbjqyidsOl7
"What was that?" asked Strudel.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAmD7DVprEqQ
"I" Strawberry stuttered. "I said... I said that I wish you would've died."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAHnRVv2qerM
Strudel didn't say anything. Strawberry gripped his hand tighter, both of them still dripping wet.
564Please respect copyright.PENANACez2ZS24hI
"All I need in my life," Strawberry continued, "Is my friends, my dog, my family, and you."
564Please respect copyright.PENANA4IOEwElF89
Strudel was deeply touched by this. They hugged, and Strawberry fell asleep in his arms.
564Please respect copyright.PENANA0FP1SFRGQU
564Please respect copyright.PENANAmBdVgu7ndG
The next day before school, Doreen and Fiona came up to Strawberry and her friends.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAEKcRHMqCLe
"What do you want now?" asked Lemonade.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAnZ9BUXorD4
"Oh honey, it's not about you this time" said Doreen. "Strawberry, I saw you and Strudel through my window."
564Please respect copyright.PENANAlycjC39LVa
"So?" said Strawberry.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAe2WuV71FzP
"You're a dirty whore" said Fiona.
564Please respect copyright.PENANAHb6WVSfcc4
"You guys are such losers" said Strawberry. "You don't even know what happened."
