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.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGXG0FZRtw
"Go to a gift shop" said Strudel.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtXznz3Gkc
"Shut up" whispered Muffins, pointing at Strawberry, who was already sleeping.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7digwUsPg
"Yes, your majesty" said Strudel, fiddling with a Top Thrill Dragster keychain.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Z81tMSjps
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.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7ZGy3cyY5
"Kiwi, they're fine" said Shady.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sN3Svv6DK
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"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyGRkua6do
Strawberry & Muffins got out of each other's arms.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9iOfyK6hZ
"Let's go" said Strudel. "Everyone's waiting for us on the beach"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvDVXOBTot
They rushed over by the Wicked Twister.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoKUzLkseK
"Hold it right there"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNovGWKYHSs
They turned around and saw 2 cops.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuArhpPI1Y
"What do you 3 think you're doing here?" one of them asked.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83wyuTQNfg
"It's my fault" said Strudel. "Don't blame them"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mvBapD0An
"This is a serious offense" said the other cop.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YQdPMF0Lo
"I understand that" said Strudel. "And I take full responsibility"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmytp4p9a1M
"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.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZz9vrzyM9
On the way home, everyone wondered about Strudel.
"What if he has to go to jail?" asked Waffles.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOY9qQ8ShD
"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.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgHt50ellg
"Yes, Mother" Strudel replied. "What would you like?"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDSUExMZyg
"What is up with you lately?" Pearl asked. "First Stitch, then Tom, then your car, now this?"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKucL6g90j
"Mom-" Strudel began.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTcBU2dmoT
"Not to mention you taking off to L.A. last summer" Pearl continued.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebX4Sjm4Vp
"Mom, what are you trying to say?" asked Strudel.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaeQ7Mk4uG
"You're out of control lately" said Pearl. "And it needs to stop"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1ctP3yWke
"I'm sorry, Mom" Strudel said sweetly.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JDOogzrm5
"Honey, you're messing with the law now" Pearl said seriously. "You also shoplifted that sweatshirt you're wearing"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr90sdLxS5
"Mom-" Strudel started to say.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeS1EnGu26C
"You're gonna go and live with CJ's family for awhile" said Pearl.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpG7gnC0Mz
"Why?" asked Strudel.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJO8rdFYQX
"Because I need time to think" said Pearl. "You can spend more time with Pancake this way, and I can really think this through"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhYM1vV7PB
"Think what through?" asked Strudel.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46055gArJv
"You" said Pearl. "And how you've been acting"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3W0yUsmLI
"Alright" Strudel said sadly. He got a few things, and went outside, but he turned the other way and went down the black path.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzsDAZ4ZZA
"Hey, Strudel" ChiChi called from the gazebo. "How much trouble are you in?"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrhq0S3RU7
"A lot" said Strudel. "I'm going to stay at CJ's for awhile"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJ5DixngRi
"That's your punishment?" ChiChi asked.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYpYatht1S
"I guess so" said Strudel. "Even though that means I get to spend more time with Pan"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYkENrrFwa
"So you're like, kicked out?" asked ChiChi.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEW2oElWDB
"I guess you could say that" said Strudel. "So, what are you doing here at the gazebo?"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGUCY7jN2Y
"I don't know" said ChiChi. "I was bored and decided to come down here"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdG8lRD0JHC
"Cool" said Strudel, sitting down.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgdSTWc10H
"Strudel, can I ask you something?" ChiChi asked.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H2sKiidhX
"Sure, what?" asked Strudel.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFZhCdlbvL
"Who was your first kiss with?" ChiChi asked.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOR2RR1wKi
"Bertha" Strudel shuddered. "Why? Who was yours?"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbubH2FvbDI
"I haven't had mine yet" ChiChi said, embarrassed.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhpEdatPFK
"Really?" asked Strudel. "Garlic didn't even kiss you before he moved?"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4vYY8qi8S
"Nope" said ChiChi. "I guess he didn't really like me"
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmexTy4b13
"Sure he did" said Strudel. "What's there not to like? You're beautiful."
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1afk6IJeXD
ChiChi smiled a bit and pushed a strand of hair out of her face.
405Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BbczoaXKn
"There's a first time for everything" Strudel said, as he leaned in and kissed her.
