"Thanks for making my costume, Cat." Robbie said, buttoning and zipping his black jeans.
"No problem, I love making costumes." Cat giggled, handing him his shirt.
"Ugh, I'm nervouse, I can't button these." Robbie let go of the buttons on his shirt with shaking hands.
"Here, I'll do it. The buttons are kind of small, I normally use them on the backs of dresses above the zipper." She said, begining to button Robbie's shirt.
"No, I'm just really nervous. I've never had the lead in a play before."
"Oh, Robbie, you'll do a good job. There, you're all ready." She smiled, buttoning the last button.
"Thanks. And would you mind watching Rex while I'm doing the play?"
"Of course. I love Rex. His hair is soft." Cat smiled.
"Yeah, I umm, I wash it with a special shampoo." Robbie said, nervously.
"I love shampoo! Mine smells like strawberrys." She giggled.
"Really?" He leaned in to sniff her hair, and was overwhelmed by how close they were. "Your hair smells, really good." He whispered, pulling back slightly to look at her face.
"You smell really good, too." Cat breathed, looking up at him. They leaned closer and closer to eachother, until-
"I'm gonna kill you." It didn't sound threatening, just annoyed. The two of them peeked around the wall to see Tori and Trina bickering, then they pulled back.
"So, umm, thanks for the costume, and watching Rex. I've gotta, go and, yeah." Robbie akwardly walked off.
"Oh." Cat played with her hair while watching Robbie walk away. "Rex, you won't tell anyone will you?" She sat beside him.
"Oh, no Cat." She tried to imitate his voice.
"Oh, I like Robbie a lot. And, I don't think he likes me. I just wish he would have kissed me just now. Oh, but please don't tell. I don't want anyone to know." She said, discobobbled.
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with me." She imitated again.
"Oh, thank you, Rex." She hugged the puppet tightly. "Let's go get a wahoo punch before the show." Cat picked Rex up and carried him out of the Black Box Theater. So her biggest secret was going to be kept, just between her and a puppet, who was sworn to secrecy.
