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.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWOO5OoTdF
"Go to a gift shop" said Strudel.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFg0FMNZn8Q
"Shut up" whispered Muffins, pointing at Strawberry, who was already sleeping.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqx49vwzR5
"Yes, your majesty" said Strudel, fiddling with a Top Thrill Dragster keychain.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡow5YcF7LWO
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.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOk0GP6n5O
"Kiwi, they're fine" said Shady.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uXyt0g9Me
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"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrW1s4ruOW
Strawberry & Muffins got out of each other's arms.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinW0jrMSHl
"Let's go" said Strudel. "Everyone's waiting for us on the beach"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhpJk4yXwR
They rushed over by the Wicked Twister.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPaAuhYyhL
"Hold it right there"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz45R9GMpk
They turned around and saw 2 cops.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeA4Siba5UZ
"What do you 3 think you're doing here?" one of them asked.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznDTm3wsup
"It's my fault" said Strudel. "Don't blame them"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZi8f7QN5Zq
"This is a serious offense" said the other cop.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oYdSebcE5
"I understand that" said Strudel. "And I take full responsibility"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBm8gXip8W
"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.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xqVDiNLoL
"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.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSdSmujRj2
"Yes, Mother" Strudel replied. "What would you like?"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoMhOHiqj4
"What is up with you lately?" Pearl asked. "First Stitch, then Tom, then your car, now this?"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RYGP6O2d2
"Mom-" Strudel began.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyrMH3OmZQ
"Not to mention you taking off to L.A. last summer" Pearl continued.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSVdejmASE
"Mom, what are you trying to say?" asked Strudel.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBpUxT6UHw
"You're out of control lately" said Pearl. "And it needs to stop"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9KvpVCLBn
"I'm sorry, Mom" Strudel said sweetly.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAS95VOqTbq
"Honey, you're messing with the law now" Pearl said seriously. "You also shoplifted that sweatshirt you're wearing"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y9trn6OFd
"Mom-" Strudel started to say.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9LUwFRWYP
"You're gonna go and live with CJ's family for awhile" said Pearl.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsK6OJyieL
"Why?" asked Strudel.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4JMKCrFDX
"Because I need time to think" said Pearl. "You can spend more time with Pancake this way, and I can really think this through"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkZBf6jTu1
"Think what through?" asked Strudel.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TniBxyNq3
"You" said Pearl. "And how you've been acting"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqka1tJJkJY
"Alright" Strudel said sadly. He got a few things, and went outside, but he turned the other way and went down the black path.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2geuerHSV
"Hey, Strudel" ChiChi called from the gazebo. "How much trouble are you in?"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOt1DDBxUO
"A lot" said Strudel. "I'm going to stay at CJ's for awhile"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSP7y0vPar
"That's your punishment?" ChiChi asked.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1Zcv21Irl
"I guess so" said Strudel. "Even though that means I get to spend more time with Pan"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuAry8vBhm
"So you're like, kicked out?" asked ChiChi.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5QRXKbMXz
"I guess you could say that" said Strudel. "So, what are you doing here at the gazebo?"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7UPwfDd2X
"I don't know" said ChiChi. "I was bored and decided to come down here"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA383AahsVe
"Cool" said Strudel, sitting down.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOHtWTlTGF
"Strudel, can I ask you something?" ChiChi asked.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvYoL8mpLU
"Sure, what?" asked Strudel.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3w7wTwJhi
"Who was your first kiss with?" ChiChi asked.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTn4fveuAMJ
"Bertha" Strudel shuddered. "Why? Who was yours?"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14D6y1f8HJ
"I haven't had mine yet" ChiChi said, embarrassed.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkdakQXKB0
"Really?" asked Strudel. "Garlic didn't even kiss you before he moved?"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPK4in1Qtj
"Nope" said ChiChi. "I guess he didn't really like me"
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk7QYa8uHe
"Sure he did" said Strudel. "What's there not to like? You're beautiful."
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZgeUwQ29D
ChiChi smiled a bit and pushed a strand of hair out of her face.
467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk30mIHRxtZ
"There's a first time for everything" Strudel said, as he leaned in and kissed her.
