A few weeks later, Cherry got a text from Sully, simply saying "we need to talk"
Cherry started panicking. Had he found out about Muffins and Stitch?
Shakily, she texted back. "What's up, Babe?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXRBkvPNoJ
"Come over right now" Sully replied.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDfz9RM1Zn
Cherry was nervous, but she headed to Sully's house.
When she walked in, a bunch of her friends, and an older man were sitting in the living room.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhpH13Dbcd
"What is this?" Cherry asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OFlQywcA4
"Sit down, Cherry" the older man said.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRN87Ex9Whm
"What?!" Cherry exclaimed. "Who are you? What's going on?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1efHORUToc
"My name is James," the man said. "And me, and everyone in this room is concerned about you"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlbYeIqzwT
Sully patted the seat next to him, and Cherry sat down. Sully pulled out a piece of paper and read from it. "Cherry, you're my girlfriend and I love you very much. I also know that I am responsible for your addiction. I should have never let you try cocaine. I was lucky, I never got addicted, but you did, and it's my fault. Cherry, will you please accept help?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRW7rtX4ok2
"What the hell?" Cherry exclaimed. "I'm not addicted, Sully, and I don't need a damn intervention"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlt3PrYJc4
"Cherry, yes you are, and yes you do" Sully said. "Please accept this opportunity"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6WTXWPh1z
"And what if I don't?" Cherry asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDpG9r7fKV
"If you don't," said Sully. "Then I can no longer be with you. I will not be your boyfriend, I will not speak to you"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5yCcZQrjy
Cherry frowned. "But Pancake's party is tonight, and I don't wanna spend the time in rehab"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KUwAakfFB
"You can go to the party" said James. "Have one last time with your friends. First thing Monday morning, you're on a plane to California"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUWeG2Bhky
"What do you say, Babe?" Sully asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAorZm5yyO
"Yeah" Cherry sighed. "Whatever"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6S4NjKBqL
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5aN2faZkb
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8QcV0Est4
Later that day, everyone started to arrive at Pancake's house.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiCWF6qLhr
Cherry was being completely distant from Sully.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXy3q0w0jQ
"Babe, what's wrong?" Sully asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡop3lyHhCiZ
"I can't believe you had a fucking intervention for me" Cherry opened a beer. "Why would you do that?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNGaMqOs0i
"Because I love you" Sully said. "I want you to get better"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtTPg35VJC
"Well I love cocaine" Cherry shot back. "I love it so much that I-"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtszTQyMltk
All of a sudden, Dimsum burst through the side door. "I killed them"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdcNCyzxWz
"Killed who?" Pixie asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvZH6EviXf
"Eddie and Lenny" Dimsum said. "Those guys who hurt Sully"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQKJqtW4nH
"What?!?" Sully exclaimed. "How?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftKMYjq3Ze
"I'm just kidding" Dimsum laughed. "But they've been caught, and they're in prison"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkYjndGI4s
"That is so awesome!" Sully was relieved. "Oh, Cherry, what were you saying, Babe?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyrHHtVYX2
"Nothing" Cherry retorted, as she stormed off.

Meanwhile, Strudel decided to sit on a couch, next to Pancake.
She started to inch away.
"Pan, wait" Strudel said. "I know you hate me. Hell, I even hate myself. But I just wish you'd forgive me, because I love you, Pancake, and I always will"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRPM5Eabum
"Okay, Strudel" Pancake sighed. "I forgive you"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISuGrUQ5Bc
"R-really?" Strudel gasped. "So we're friends, right?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzl2gPoDUDF
"No, Strudel" Pancake got up. "Not friends, not enemies. Just strangers with memories"
She walked away.

Meanwhile, Strawberry was sitting out on the deck, waiting for Muffins.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJMbSrz9cP
"I'm sure he'll show" Stitch said. "Why do you even care? I thought you were over him"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2e3oOHlYA
"Wow, and you call yourself his best friend" Strawberry shook her head.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBT6tRPEYBL
"Am I missing something?" Stitch asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxYrj5tjFo
"Obviously" Strawberry got up and walked away.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyYn173Ims
A few minutes later, Muffins showed up.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrm2yhuvCA
"Your girlfriend was looking for you" Stitch said.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzDr2EcpPK
"Girlfriend?" Muffins questioned. "I don't have a girlfriend"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvCtV6DNuK
"Wow, women" Stitch shook his head.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgZAkcGZrE
"What?" Muffins said. "You can't stick to just one?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NeTKobjlt
Stitch glared at Muffins. "We both agreed that never happened. But apparently you and Strawberry did... again"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGspbiEi7c
"Oh, yeah, that..." Muffins said slowly.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgSOyg7SFj
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3p7EGhcuI
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroQ1MVVYqT
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyF1RSlpPf
Meanwhile, inside, Strudel decided to sit next to Strawberry, who was sitting alone. "Want a beer?" he asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfLP5Oft8W
"I can't" Strawberry said quietly.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVRLKrXdg4
"Why not, don't trust me?" Strudel laughed. "Don't worry, I didn't roofie it"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAebpaMxmw
Strawberry glared at him.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1d4l9BL4s
"Okay, what's wrong?" Strudel asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKethfcetB6
Strawberry sighed. "Promise me you won't tell?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2tB91JyWt
"Yeah, of course" Strudel said. "What's up?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBYVNGEPLM
"Strudel, I think I'm pregnant" Strawberry said. "With Muffins' baby"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4TP75IoCb
"Oh....." Strudel said. "Oh, um, wow, does he know?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARJKcirw9N
Strawberry shook her head. "No one does. And he won't even talk to me..."
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0s4wlVVQWU
"I'll be right back" Strudel said.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXToDkz2GNl
"Strudel...." Strawberry said. "What are you doing?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LEevm45HO
"Don't worry about it" Strudel left the room, and went around the back of the house.
"Muffins" he said once he found him.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfEcXpmxSI
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqb0RLze8rD
"Come here" Strudel motioned.
Muffins turned around. "Strudel... hi..."
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPaElTHDHy
Muffins hadn't talked to Strudel since he told him he wasn't gay.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb3Ngi3d0R
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9Jp1AviyF
Muffins walked over slowly.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHfvd9qGVQ
"If you got Strawberry pregnant, and are a deadbeat, I'll tell everyone about Kalahari" Strudel said.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUXJgjBJ8M
"What?!?" Muffins hissed.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhLr4GHWmJ
"You'd better go talk to her" Strudel warned.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU4eZw0G2o
Muffins slowly walked inside. "Strawberry?"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eDI8OiWtL
Strawberry turned around.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxhb5Er05a
"Can we talk?" Muffins asked.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmXYfEOAjJ
"I guess" Strawberry said.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHTlQgOrQU
"Strudel told me you're pregnant" Muffins said.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGfdJ1w0kR
"I don't know" Strawberry said quietly. "I have a test in my purse but I never took it. I'll take it tomorrow"
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BaVQ763pg
"You'll take it now" Muffins said, leading her up the stairs.
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdYqxPqjvn
"I'll take it now" Strawberry sighed, as she followed him.
