Strawberry laid next to him, as Strudel went on the other side.
"You guys disturb me" he said, eating some nachos and putting on a Cedar Point sweatshirt.

"I want one of those" said Muffins.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAjAzjFR1Sap
"Go to a gift shop" said Strudel.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAWOgsZsTHk6
"Shut up" whispered Muffins, pointing at Strawberry, who was already sleeping.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAcCewVsY25b
"Yes, your majesty" said Strudel, fiddling with a Top Thrill Dragster keychain.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAfORjF9IF6k
Muffins rolled his eyes and laid his head next to Strawberry's.

"I'm feeling some residual guilt about leaving the 3 of them in the park" said Kiwi.
555Please respect copyright.PENANALQ3g6EsT3z
"Kiwi, they're fine" said Shady.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAsLvUzn9Okb
The next morning, Strudel woke up first. He had a text message from Shady.
"Strawberry, Muffins, wake up" he said. "They left us here on purpose. But they saw police cars coming in the park"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAQnZXkoB8TS
Strawberry & Muffins got out of each other's arms.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAoupwJHnNey
"Let's go" said Strudel. "Everyone's waiting for us on the beach"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAVNUPY0pgzS
They rushed over by the Wicked Twister.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAAHphkL4dg1
"Hold it right there"
555Please respect copyright.PENANACAnyBh80tp
They turned around and saw 2 cops.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAXxRAKX85lL
"What do you 3 think you're doing here?" one of them asked.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAQMr8X7jwBg
"It's my fault" said Strudel. "Don't blame them"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAe73F4Dqnxa
"This is a serious offense" said the other cop.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAb6RLtFkFNb
"I understand that" said Strudel. "And I take full responsibility"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAzYbWrLhfso
"Alright, you two are free to go then" the first cop said to Strawberry & Muffins. "Let this be a warning. You, blondie, put your hands behind your back" he handcuffed Strudel, as the other cop led Strawberry & Muffins to the exit.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAHKsLsgb4Nw
On the way home, everyone wondered about Strudel.
"What if he has to go to jail?" asked Waffles.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAJqpoegc8Jm
"He took the blame!" Shady exclaimed. "That's not my problem"

Later on, Strudel was sitting in his room. His mom came in.
"Strudel, can we talk?" she asked.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAo2hnpTJx6I
"Yes, Mother" Strudel replied. "What would you like?"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAiZ9ZTnLsY3
"What is up with you lately?" Pearl asked. "First Stitch, then Tom, then your car, now this?"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAHkX2t6JeIA
"Mom-" Strudel began.
555Please respect copyright.PENANA4gZUGkXY8L
"Not to mention you taking off to L.A. last summer" Pearl continued.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAERL6J7mXa4
"Mom, what are you trying to say?" asked Strudel.
555Please respect copyright.PENANA6FfYf4ajsB
"You're out of control lately" said Pearl. "And it needs to stop"
555Please respect copyright.PENANA2UzrWGlsjH
"I'm sorry, Mom" Strudel said sweetly.
555Please respect copyright.PENANA96qqkBLTD4
"Honey, you're messing with the law now" Pearl said seriously. "You also shoplifted that sweatshirt you're wearing"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAiOGvpANjpf
"Mom-" Strudel started to say.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAsxHObO5vze
"You're gonna go and live with CJ's family for awhile" said Pearl.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAgUJE0oCGmh
"Why?" asked Strudel.
555Please respect copyright.PENANASUfugmr992
"Because I need time to think" said Pearl. "You can spend more time with Pancake this way, and I can really think this through"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAeao0j87jXq
"Think what through?" asked Strudel.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAyiKA8BsGqn
"You" said Pearl. "And how you've been acting"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAZWHBbloXNs
"Alright" Strudel said sadly. He got a few things, and went outside, but he turned the other way and went down the black path.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAU6o33cprqA
"Hey, Strudel" ChiChi called from the gazebo. "How much trouble are you in?"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAA2t88uapfJ
"A lot" said Strudel. "I'm going to stay at CJ's for awhile"
555Please respect copyright.PENANA8GWtPGLhnu
"That's your punishment?" ChiChi asked.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAk7mmaT8wWX
"I guess so" said Strudel. "Even though that means I get to spend more time with Pan"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAtnd8EU7G8c
"So you're like, kicked out?" asked ChiChi.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAObv551QiEt
"I guess you could say that" said Strudel. "So, what are you doing here at the gazebo?"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAq1Qpw1ugO6
"I don't know" said ChiChi. "I was bored and decided to come down here"
555Please respect copyright.PENANArxqI1MO9Z5
"Cool" said Strudel, sitting down.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAryw1SPvo1d
"Strudel, can I ask you something?" ChiChi asked.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAV1dyAJCZpX
"Sure, what?" asked Strudel.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAfy0gkK14Cz
"Who was your first kiss with?" ChiChi asked.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAkuRk7U3MrE
"Bertha" Strudel shuddered. "Why? Who was yours?"
555Please respect copyright.PENANA9S3vbLRe28
"I haven't had mine yet" ChiChi said, embarrassed.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAOebGInUM5n
"Really?" asked Strudel. "Garlic didn't even kiss you before he moved?"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAVz518EHfIv
"Nope" said ChiChi. "I guess he didn't really like me"
555Please respect copyright.PENANAeEh8eExxpG
"Sure he did" said Strudel. "What's there not to like? You're beautiful."
555Please respect copyright.PENANAjGWeb5gZcU
ChiChi smiled a bit and pushed a strand of hair out of her face.
555Please respect copyright.PENANAXZgzYtTEF3
"There's a first time for everything" Strudel said, as he leaned in and kissed her.
