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.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmj9E2CgJt
"Go to a gift shop" said Strudel.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2PsCtgdn8
"Shut up" whispered Muffins, pointing at Strawberry, who was already sleeping.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhweaywzed
"Yes, your majesty" said Strudel, fiddling with a Top Thrill Dragster keychain.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6e3XEluk9
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.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mAkCt2bg9
"Kiwi, they're fine" said Shady.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDLLufU9kI
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"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2rnTQNouf
Strawberry & Muffins got out of each other's arms.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBExtCgE57o
"Let's go" said Strudel. "Everyone's waiting for us on the beach"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD47WAJuVK0
They rushed over by the Wicked Twister.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC19EtXDgJR
"Hold it right there"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeHfH7IUNb
They turned around and saw 2 cops.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXRWqNGQJ3
"What do you 3 think you're doing here?" one of them asked.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1plzqfKoSh
"It's my fault" said Strudel. "Don't blame them"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZvA18yXwt
"This is a serious offense" said the other cop.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTB9vGLOBN
"I understand that" said Strudel. "And I take full responsibility"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshgGQV2DFk
"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.

On the way home, everyone wondered about Strudel.
"What if he has to go to jail?" asked Waffles.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktGPmy8Nl8
"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.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczyQf6ww0v
"Yes, Mother" Strudel replied. "What would you like?"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhRUg5fTEv
"What is up with you lately?" Pearl asked. "First Stitch, then Tom, then your car, now this?"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGQVhPGQXQ
"Mom-" Strudel began.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTn6eZHtJVK
"Not to mention you taking off to L.A. last summer" Pearl continued.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0iZ43seUF
"Mom, what are you trying to say?" asked Strudel.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFpo8K4IlX
"You're out of control lately" said Pearl. "And it needs to stop"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIztKLqhVWG
"I'm sorry, Mom" Strudel said sweetly.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifMbO3V7df
"Honey, you're messing with the law now" Pearl said seriously. "You also shoplifted that sweatshirt you're wearing"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpELEqdrjnX
"Mom-" Strudel started to say.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiHu5jwWaC
"You're gonna go and live with CJ's family for awhile" said Pearl.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRdP0HT3ce
"Why?" asked Strudel.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzB4Hd71o1
"Because I need time to think" said Pearl. "You can spend more time with Pancake this way, and I can really think this through"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ51ACSmXjJ
"Think what through?" asked Strudel.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAu5ur30xL
"You" said Pearl. "And how you've been acting"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZTUpuONYS
"Alright" Strudel said sadly. He got a few things, and went outside, but he turned the other way and went down the black path.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7PFiR5MoS
"Hey, Strudel" ChiChi called from the gazebo. "How much trouble are you in?"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrV3rGybf1F
"A lot" said Strudel. "I'm going to stay at CJ's for awhile"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgsMVoVDH3
"That's your punishment?" ChiChi asked.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8ZZwWiXTC
"I guess so" said Strudel. "Even though that means I get to spend more time with Pan"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xyCNUZFUe
"So you're like, kicked out?" asked ChiChi.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzVsw9V4Ra
"I guess you could say that" said Strudel. "So, what are you doing here at the gazebo?"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54icCKTa6V
"I don't know" said ChiChi. "I was bored and decided to come down here"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkvArT6X3X
"Cool" said Strudel, sitting down.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PFSTOGION
"Strudel, can I ask you something?" ChiChi asked.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqUtniJHZN
"Sure, what?" asked Strudel.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh9GFAWdEw
"Who was your first kiss with?" ChiChi asked.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iQElt1DVU
"Bertha" Strudel shuddered. "Why? Who was yours?"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyfJtxxOlW
"I haven't had mine yet" ChiChi said, embarrassed.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuABVoyEnG
"Really?" asked Strudel. "Garlic didn't even kiss you before he moved?"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEGFt402bl
"Nope" said ChiChi. "I guess he didn't really like me"
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zTfBF6Hzu
"Sure he did" said Strudel. "What's there not to like? You're beautiful."
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PBWxsWmi0
ChiChi smiled a bit and pushed a strand of hair out of her face.
404Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEf3gaqW1V
"There's a first time for everything" Strudel said, as he leaned in and kissed her.
