"Oh MY gosh," Cookie Sheppard groaned. "That darn Robin is ALWAYS late for the meetings."
"Just hold your horses!" Baabara Elliot flipped her straight, sky blue hair and stared at the door.
The five members of Bones Minus PC- a hate club honoring the "golden moment" when they break up Bones Nicholson and PC Poole- was waiting for their club leader, Robin Cardenas, to finally arrive to start their club meeting. Finally, the girl of the hour stepped into the door, wearing her initial club uniform: a white t-shirt with a paw print, a white sweatband with a picture of a heart with a giant X over it, and simple denim jeans. Everyone was wearing the same uniform.
Well, except for Rasher Bates. He's the rebellious one who was forced by his best friend Whitney Donovan to join Bones Minus PC. Rasher had his shirt tied to his waist and his sweatband thrown onto the ground.
Robin sat into her chair. "I'm so sorry," she began. "I can't help being fashionably late." She smirked at her boyfriend, Rod Calderon, who waved back to her. Then, she continued to speak. "So, Whitney, have you got any information on what we'll be doing today?"
"Here's something." Whitney paused for effect. "Bones and PC are going on a date. I'm not sure where, but we should be able to find out before time."
"This could be our big break, guys!" Baabara, the plotter of the club, cheered. "I'm already getting some good ideas! First, we'll need to order some Ramune Drink!"
"Okay, firstly, what is Ramune Drink?" Cookie asked. "And second, if we order some, how will it get here in time?"
"Ramune Drink is a glass-marble soda from Japan that's supposed to be really fizzy. And you HAVE a car, Cookie, so just stop by World Market or something and buy some."
"And what good will this 'Ramune Drink' do for us?" asked Robin, doubtfully.
"..We're all out." Baabara muttered. "And I really need some. It's my thinking juice."
Cookie groaned. "Fine, I'll be back soon."
"You're not going anywhere yet!" Robin shouted, pointing to Cookie's chair. Cookie, confused, sat down in her seat. Robin dug into her pocket and took out a miniature Hello Kitty candy dispenser. She opened it up, and took out 6 pink gumballs. She passed out the chewy candy to each person of the group.
"Don't eat it, yet!" Whitney slapped Rasher's hand away from his mouth.
"If you didn't already know, this gum's flavor fades away quickly." Robin looked at the gumball in her hand, then continued. "It's like Bones and PC's relationship, really; it won't last for long. Let's keep it that way." Robin held her gumball in the air. "To ruining their relationship!"
"Ruining their relationship!" everyone shouted, toasting their gumballs and then eating them. Except for Rasher, who was already chewing the gum beforetime.
"Rasher didn't respond!" Baabara tattled. Rasher then spat out his gum onto Baabara's scarf.
"Robin's right, the gum's flavor DOES fade off quickly!" Rasher wretched. "Next time, she should buy Extra brand gum or something."
"THAT'S NOT THE POINT!" Baabara shrieked, tossing her scarf to the floor. "WHY YOU LITTLE-"
"What?" Rasher snorted. "YOU'RE the little one!"
"How is he your friend?" Robin asked Whitney while watching the argument. Whitney sadly looked away. Cookie went outside and spat our her gum in the trash can, hopped into her car, and drove off to World Market.
On her way there, she spotted PC talking to Milly Stevens and Ashley Tericama, two friends of hers. Curious, Cookie pulled over not too far from them to see if they'd spill the beans about the date.
"Where is he taking you?" Milly squealed.
"I'm not sure yet, but he told me it'd be very classy!" PC squealed back. Ashley bounced up and down cheerily, waiting to hear what they'd say next.
"What are you annoying girls going on about now?"
PC, Milly, and Ashley turned around to see Link Bell, a blonde-headed boy lowering his eyes. "Are fluffy animals all you care about?" he snapped.
"Well, we like to get clothes, too," Ashley grinned. Link rolled his eyes and walked off. The three girls continued to laugh about what would happen until Milly abruptly stopped. Ashley noticed, then stopped laughing. A smile was painted across her face, as well as Milly. PC saw what they were looking at and blushed: It was Bones. He was wearing a green shirt and jeans. Although it was normal lounging wear, PC thought he pulled it off nicely.
"Hey, PC," he smiled. Cookie found the thought of her younger brother with a human uncouth. She couldn't watch any longer. Then again, she had to get information to Robin on where they'd be going.
"Hi, Bones," PC responded, self-consciously.
"Are you ready to head to The Melting Pot?" Bones asked. PC was stiff. She was wearing her fish T-shirt, a duck skirt, and blue Crocs; not to mention her hair was in its normal hairstyle. And seriously, at a fancy fondue restaurant you have to look good.
The Melting Pot, of course! Cookie thought to herself. Where else but a fancy fondue restaurant? She put her foot to the gas pedal and drove off to World Market.
"Of course I'm not ready!" PC shrieked. "I have to get dressed!"
"I was just kidding." Bones laughed at PC flipping out. "I need to get ready, too."
"Actually, uh, you look pretty good in what you're wearing now," PC blushed.
Bones's face turned red. "You really think so?"
"I know so!" PC smiled. She waved, then walked back to her house to change into something better for her date. She went upstairs to her room, and pulled out a cream halter top and a light brown skirt to wear. She tried on both pieces of clothes together, and they went together pretty well. She slid a brown bracelet onto her wrist and stepped into her cream and brown open-toed shoes. She stepped out of her front door and eagerly ran to where she saw Bones last.
"I'm here!" she cheered.
At that moment, Cookie pulled over near the Bones Minus PC hideout, and closed the door behind her. "I'm here!" she announced slyly, with boxes of Ramune Drink in her arms.
"What information did you get?" asked Robin.
"Well, Bones and PC are going to the Melting Pot. In unrelated news, Ashley seems to care about clothes." Cookie set the boxes of Ramune Drink onto the table.
"Give me a second." Baabara opened a box of the soda and attempted to open a bottle. The bottle opened, but the soda spewed all over her face and dripped down her chin. She took a swig of the soda anyway, seeming lax to the fact that the soda was staining her scarf and her shirt. "This is some good stuff," she muttered. Suddenly, she slammed the empty bottle onto the table. "I'VE GOT IT!" she exclaimed. "We can ruin their date, but first, we should ruin their wardrobe."
"How so?" asked Whitney.
Baabara grinned evilly, and whispered her plan into Whitney's ear. Whitney smirked, her ears twitching as she listened. "I'll do it." Whitney stood up and walked out the door.
