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.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVUxrhaeR0
"Go to a gift shop" said Strudel.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t6yv58PHR
"Shut up" whispered Muffins, pointing at Strawberry, who was already sleeping.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjHAP35wvd
"Yes, your majesty" said Strudel, fiddling with a Top Thrill Dragster keychain.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSNO3XkIV5
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.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB7AkZLgUA
"Kiwi, they're fine" said Shady.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaONTjEOMd
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"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUuXYF2U1O
Strawberry & Muffins got out of each other's arms.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZegJDrpTJ
"Let's go" said Strudel. "Everyone's waiting for us on the beach"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMCg0htKu7
They rushed over by the Wicked Twister.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncb5XDfqLZ
"Hold it right there"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgqhyNMpu7
They turned around and saw 2 cops.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcQPwq9gBd
"What do you 3 think you're doing here?" one of them asked.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsjpkBiYGp
"It's my fault" said Strudel. "Don't blame them"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvceh05lqT
"This is a serious offense" said the other cop.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZej0OZB2l
"I understand that" said Strudel. "And I take full responsibility"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovf0xBhkbr
"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.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjst4rtnrNf
On the way home, everyone wondered about Strudel.
"What if he has to go to jail?" asked Waffles.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI1Lr7lD1p
"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.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwPMQmlAcP
"Yes, Mother" Strudel replied. "What would you like?"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxVwhV9ive
"What is up with you lately?" Pearl asked. "First Stitch, then Tom, then your car, now this?"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQYtqPjU42
"Mom-" Strudel began.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ1TZUlEwr
"Not to mention you taking off to L.A. last summer" Pearl continued.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVIbn3htBs
"Mom, what are you trying to say?" asked Strudel.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1EINfgCSE
"You're out of control lately" said Pearl. "And it needs to stop"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cIPNcJSkP
"I'm sorry, Mom" Strudel said sweetly.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2DqtTH6T2
"Honey, you're messing with the law now" Pearl said seriously. "You also shoplifted that sweatshirt you're wearing"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6xL2QBI96
"Mom-" Strudel started to say.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkGmNHZ5Ur
"You're gonna go and live with CJ's family for awhile" said Pearl.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjCuTsfvqW
"Why?" asked Strudel.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCkY0Wzgsc
"Because I need time to think" said Pearl. "You can spend more time with Pancake this way, and I can really think this through"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6F9Yvjc7q9
"Think what through?" asked Strudel.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezqfGRitZJ
"You" said Pearl. "And how you've been acting"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBvPzIbDYx
"Alright" Strudel said sadly. He got a few things, and went outside, but he turned the other way and went down the black path.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPNq4OjZsa
"Hey, Strudel" ChiChi called from the gazebo. "How much trouble are you in?"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86jan8nCA7
"A lot" said Strudel. "I'm going to stay at CJ's for awhile"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTBBhOKrCc
"That's your punishment?" ChiChi asked.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yfQAjCQzh
"I guess so" said Strudel. "Even though that means I get to spend more time with Pan"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzXDprkiLu
"So you're like, kicked out?" asked ChiChi.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2c9iob8Jc
"I guess you could say that" said Strudel. "So, what are you doing here at the gazebo?"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIN6mdNeOav
"I don't know" said ChiChi. "I was bored and decided to come down here"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4UO2N1RvT
"Cool" said Strudel, sitting down.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ls2Tlc4HR
"Strudel, can I ask you something?" ChiChi asked.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4vlJttXQW
"Sure, what?" asked Strudel.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMxwMXunYu
"Who was your first kiss with?" ChiChi asked.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSl1P47pIK
"Bertha" Strudel shuddered. "Why? Who was yours?"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejyE2LclnJ
"I haven't had mine yet" ChiChi said, embarrassed.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7h5NVypiO
"Really?" asked Strudel. "Garlic didn't even kiss you before he moved?"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yhHrlmYwL
"Nope" said ChiChi. "I guess he didn't really like me"
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMIDn5VPQK
"Sure he did" said Strudel. "What's there not to like? You're beautiful."
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCsRv8SkeA
ChiChi smiled a bit and pushed a strand of hair out of her face.
516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY32o8TQZ41
"There's a first time for everything" Strudel said, as he leaned in and kissed her.
