A few weeks later, Cherry got a text from Sully, simply saying "we need to talk"
Cherry started panicking. Had he found out about Muffins and Stitch?
Shakily, she texted back. "What's up, Babe?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANA1FfVhKmHQj
"Come over right now" Sully replied.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAgtcH91u83y
Cherry was nervous, but she headed to Sully's house.
When she walked in, a bunch of her friends, and an older man were sitting in the living room.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAFxHEGmetnY
"What is this?" Cherry asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAynJywRI4Zt
"Sit down, Cherry" the older man said.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAyDE8bndDom
"What?!" Cherry exclaimed. "Who are you? What's going on?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAw50fXT2XNw
"My name is James," the man said. "And me, and everyone in this room is concerned about you"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAaQ5aUzM9oq
Sully patted the seat next to him, and Cherry sat down. Sully pulled out a piece of paper and read from it. "Cherry, you're my girlfriend and I love you very much. I also know that I am responsible for your addiction. I should have never let you try cocaine. I was lucky, I never got addicted, but you did, and it's my fault. Cherry, will you please accept help?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAfAL7tEcZji
"What the hell?" Cherry exclaimed. "I'm not addicted, Sully, and I don't need a damn intervention"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAQPbxmm03Rs
"Cherry, yes you are, and yes you do" Sully said. "Please accept this opportunity"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAwwpy1FVlPE
"And what if I don't?" Cherry asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAqByW0ke9sG
"If you don't," said Sully. "Then I can no longer be with you. I will not be your boyfriend, I will not speak to you"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAF3U6BJvcuq
Cherry frowned. "But Pancake's party is tonight, and I don't wanna spend the time in rehab"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAT7JIKEiPGD
"You can go to the party" said James. "Have one last time with your friends. First thing Monday morning, you're on a plane to California"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAEdkuDWo5Qf
"What do you say, Babe?" Sully asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANArqcCwITqxP
"Yeah" Cherry sighed. "Whatever"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAMufLRa7jvG
390Please respect copyright.PENANAEUAuUyYUqI
390Please respect copyright.PENANAWmXyZyffvV
Later that day, everyone started to arrive at Pancake's house.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAqWF7l0JBYs
Cherry was being completely distant from Sully.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA4mzjnNjZtR
"Babe, what's wrong?" Sully asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAfiaVWkAhJ6
"I can't believe you had a fucking intervention for me" Cherry opened a beer. "Why would you do that?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAqte93gvySL
"Because I love you" Sully said. "I want you to get better"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAdMLSLH0OrB
"Well I love cocaine" Cherry shot back. "I love it so much that I-"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAXNuEkkUcxE
All of a sudden, Dimsum burst through the side door. "I killed them"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAe3Snm0JFN4
"Killed who?" Pixie asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAhA7hZ5d3bL
"Eddie and Lenny" Dimsum said. "Those guys who hurt Sully"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAjAd5auu5Tj
"What?!?" Sully exclaimed. "How?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAuaEGSXh3eq
"I'm just kidding" Dimsum laughed. "But they've been caught, and they're in prison"
390Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZiPF899JL
"That is so awesome!" Sully was relieved. "Oh, Cherry, what were you saying, Babe?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAg9prNeVuDy
"Nothing" Cherry retorted, as she stormed off.
390Please respect copyright.PENANArUyk9qFYjN

Meanwhile, Strudel decided to sit on a couch, next to Pancake.
She started to inch away.
"Pan, wait" Strudel said. "I know you hate me. Hell, I even hate myself. But I just wish you'd forgive me, because I love you, Pancake, and I always will"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAVqIbGfpcQF
"Okay, Strudel" Pancake sighed. "I forgive you"
390Please respect copyright.PENANABpQ8uX3e9G
"R-really?" Strudel gasped. "So we're friends, right?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANALo45ngEkRX
"No, Strudel" Pancake got up. "Not friends, not enemies. Just strangers with memories"
She walked away.

Meanwhile, Strawberry was sitting out on the deck, waiting for Muffins.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAsu6NLfB8Fs
"I'm sure he'll show" Stitch said. "Why do you even care? I thought you were over him"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAPOPhGYQysN
"Wow, and you call yourself his best friend" Strawberry shook her head.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA4pivGoZmty
"Am I missing something?" Stitch asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAfAmW97VFgD
"Obviously" Strawberry got up and walked away.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA0qlLLvkBW4
A few minutes later, Muffins showed up.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAmObQSqs6fP
"Your girlfriend was looking for you" Stitch said.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8HzLbRMdr
"Girlfriend?" Muffins questioned. "I don't have a girlfriend"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAXqgPfgfhZc
"Wow, women" Stitch shook his head.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAdNRHWWPzDV
"What?" Muffins said. "You can't stick to just one?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAFKbFv0XoWT
Stitch glared at Muffins. "We both agreed that never happened. But apparently you and Strawberry did... again"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAsv23snthkY
"Oh, yeah, that..." Muffins said slowly.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAtW7SB1D0MJ
390Please respect copyright.PENANAVnyaqT6fZb
390Please respect copyright.PENANAcIktJ7NizO
390Please respect copyright.PENANAH1Z30EHgIE
Meanwhile, inside, Strudel decided to sit next to Strawberry, who was sitting alone. "Want a beer?" he asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANACWSbnccpgi
"I can't" Strawberry said quietly.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAfYsEBZ98FP
"Why not, don't trust me?" Strudel laughed. "Don't worry, I didn't roofie it"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAq1tiqAM44B
Strawberry glared at him.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAHvAJNk9mib
"Okay, what's wrong?" Strudel asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAc4mNLh1Fi4
Strawberry sighed. "Promise me you won't tell?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAREFbvgkudn
"Yeah, of course" Strudel said. "What's up?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANApKPBw165LO
"Strudel, I think I'm pregnant" Strawberry said. "With Muffins' baby"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAf7bb1WhExt
"Oh....." Strudel said. "Oh, um, wow, does he know?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAgVco2XtpnK
Strawberry shook her head. "No one does. And he won't even talk to me..."
390Please respect copyright.PENANAe3A99DK09j
"I'll be right back" Strudel said.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA3nR1DEOZ8b
"Strudel...." Strawberry said. "What are you doing?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAaMHnuF7gpo
"Don't worry about it" Strudel left the room, and went around the back of the house.
"Muffins" he said once he found him.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAdljIxepBik
390Please respect copyright.PENANAP2KmZYklqs
"Come here" Strudel motioned.
Muffins turned around. "Strudel... hi..."
390Please respect copyright.PENANAXDDGPMzJzK
Muffins hadn't talked to Strudel since he told him he wasn't gay.390Please respect copyright.PENANA01tp2KjFtn
390Please respect copyright.PENANAmM83Asj2LK
Muffins walked over slowly.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAILDsF5ThCk
"If you got Strawberry pregnant, and are a deadbeat, I'll tell everyone about Kalahari" Strudel said.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAxqRw8mswV0
"What?!?" Muffins hissed.
390Please respect copyright.PENANARkodKBQnYV
"You'd better go talk to her" Strudel warned.
390Please respect copyright.PENANALNElsZjkY0
Muffins slowly walked inside. "Strawberry?"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAcbVqRA19mO
Strawberry turned around.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA7YxEYaVfGh
"Can we talk?" Muffins asked.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA1yl6wCUOQo
"I guess" Strawberry said.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAz8Tvnnznfg
"Strudel told me you're pregnant" Muffins said.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAMqmYKoXBu1
"I don't know" Strawberry said quietly. "I have a test in my purse but I never took it. I'll take it tomorrow"
390Please respect copyright.PENANAfbXqB2xsEV
"You'll take it now" Muffins said, leading her up the stairs.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAa1V7d9DJRm
"I'll take it now" Strawberry sighed, as she followed him.
