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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSzKLW7jYD
"Go to a gift shop" said Strudel.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng18s0Kpuf
"Shut up" whispered Muffins, pointing at Strawberry, who was already sleeping.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7Zqwhkx0k
"Yes, your majesty" said Strudel, fiddling with a Top Thrill Dragster keychain.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1UzHn2WWA
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7CCp6dV38
"Kiwi, they're fine" said Shady.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYRhShH5xL
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"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyTkxubmGr
Strawberry & Muffins got out of each other's arms.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJMRA3k3KR
"Let's go" said Strudel. "Everyone's waiting for us on the beach"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprVmdAQ7P7
They rushed over by the Wicked Twister.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq70fFfOe5
"Hold it right there"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtum61pQ6F
They turned around and saw 2 cops.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11ieWeFmUs
"What do you 3 think you're doing here?" one of them asked.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrEhM75w5V
"It's my fault" said Strudel. "Don't blame them"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNne5w832T
"This is a serious offense" said the other cop.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3pWyu23vq
"I understand that" said Strudel. "And I take full responsibility"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCNVKwc5xU
"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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOs7uE2PMI
"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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYe9dvIO92I
"Yes, Mother" Strudel replied. "What would you like?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3S29yhq1Is
"What is up with you lately?" Pearl asked. "First Stitch, then Tom, then your car, now this?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUD0AUXNGd
"Mom-" Strudel began.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeVjwkflZa
"Not to mention you taking off to L.A. last summer" Pearl continued.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF9xCP97kg
"Mom, what are you trying to say?" asked Strudel.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDIvS5KFu1
"You're out of control lately" said Pearl. "And it needs to stop"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzTV0NVxwf
"I'm sorry, Mom" Strudel said sweetly.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsenqNsuhdd
"Honey, you're messing with the law now" Pearl said seriously. "You also shoplifted that sweatshirt you're wearing"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lillYzR8i
"Mom-" Strudel started to say.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmdvP1Dds2
"You're gonna go and live with CJ's family for awhile" said Pearl.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3wKyTj1y9
"Why?" asked Strudel.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIEjvxvbEy
"Because I need time to think" said Pearl. "You can spend more time with Pancake this way, and I can really think this through"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSMLWGG2MJ
"Think what through?" asked Strudel.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYheo7utwa
"You" said Pearl. "And how you've been acting"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfO6QM8R59
"Alright" Strudel said sadly. He got a few things, and went outside, but he turned the other way and went down the black path.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkFSXwT7tK
"Hey, Strudel" ChiChi called from the gazebo. "How much trouble are you in?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ773rBgN8YS
"A lot" said Strudel. "I'm going to stay at CJ's for awhile"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAkdekTMcp
"That's your punishment?" ChiChi asked.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vzejmh0w1
"I guess so" said Strudel. "Even though that means I get to spend more time with Pan"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQDl3nIMOp
"So you're like, kicked out?" asked ChiChi.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOHmxv5zvL
"I guess you could say that" said Strudel. "So, what are you doing here at the gazebo?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDb1MOk1xe
"I don't know" said ChiChi. "I was bored and decided to come down here"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgc7GuCcrH
"Cool" said Strudel, sitting down.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXHueKxVIj
"Strudel, can I ask you something?" ChiChi asked.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7JWI42NrP
"Sure, what?" asked Strudel.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU0WrmdDkF
"Who was your first kiss with?" ChiChi asked.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY2cjdEzPH
"Bertha" Strudel shuddered. "Why? Who was yours?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeiTrsbC8g
"I haven't had mine yet" ChiChi said, embarrassed.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsRQ2swdTX
"Really?" asked Strudel. "Garlic didn't even kiss you before he moved?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMTalE1l6q
"Nope" said ChiChi. "I guess he didn't really like me"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0iqIuLbJL
"Sure he did" said Strudel. "What's there not to like? You're beautiful."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uwRX5wwtw
ChiChi smiled a bit and pushed a strand of hair out of her face.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWDyGKGg5N
"There's a first time for everything" Strudel said, as he leaned in and kissed her.
