(A/N: Another "Donkey Kong" fanfic, once again featuring an OC, only this time, it's Suzanne Kong. Suzanne is the only character I own in this fic, and you can find her bio on my profile. Here goes...)
It was a quiet December afternoon on Kongo Bongo Island. Christmas was right around the corner, and everyone except for the Kremlings looked forward to a visit from Santa Claus. But at present, I was thinking of checking up on Diddy Kong! Let's go see what he's up to.
We find Diddy making his merry way to the treehouse where his girlfriend, Dixie Kong, lives. Before he could knock on the door, he could hear something going on in the treehouse, and it didn't sound good. Dixie and someone else were yelling at each other, and they were getting louder and louder.
"What the heck?! What did you do that for?!" an angry female voice shouted. Diddy recognized the voice, and it wasn't Dixie's. The voice belonged to Dixie's 'friend', Suzanne Kong. Dixie and Suzanne had been friends for a little over two years, but lately, their friendship wasn't going so well, and it only continued to get worse. And the current argument proved that their friendship wasn't working out.
"You're asking me?! I wasn't the one yelling insults at Cosmo!" another equally angry female voice, this time Dixie's, shouted back.
"He's an idiot, and you know it!" Suzanne yelled.
"Okay, he may be an idiot, but he knows what love is, and he's funny!" Dixie shouted.
"Idiots are not funny!" Suzanne shouted.
Just then, the door flew open, and out came Suzanne. As she stormed out of the house, she slammed the door behind her. She didn't even notice Diddy, who managed to avoid having the door hit him.
"Dang! How could they break into an argument about Cosmo?" Diddy asked himself. Anyway, he waited for a minute or so before hesitantly knocking on the door, nervous about the mood Dixie would be in.
"GO AWAY!" Dixie shouted, thinking Suzanne had come back.
Diddy was taken aback by his girlfriend's anger, but he couldn't leave her alone. Not after what had just happened.
"Dixie... it's me... Diddy..." Dixie heard Diddy's voice say from the other side of the door.
"Oh! In that case, come in!" Dixie said in relief, recognizing her boyfriend's voice.
Diddy slowly opened the door and entered the house. As soon as he entered, he was glomped by Dixie.
"You don't know how glad I am to see you right now!" Dixie told him, though she didn't look or sound too happy. Not surprising, considering that she'd been very angry when he arrived.
"What happened?" Diddy asked, not wanting her to know that he'd overheard her and Suzanne's argument.
"It's Suzanne! She's driving me insane, and in a bad way!" Dixie told him, her voice angry as she thought about the situation she was in.
"What did she do?" Diddy asked as Dixie got off of him so he could get up.
Before Dixie could tell him what Suzanne did, she remembered that this was her boyfriend she was talking to. She didn't want to vent to him!
Sensing this, Diddy said, "If you need to vent, go right ahead. Besides, getting it off your chest will help you feel better."
His words seemed to help, for Dixie took a deep breath, and then she said, "Okay. I'll tell you."
Then they sat down on the couch together.
"The afternoon started out pretty well. I was sitting here in the living room, watching a marathon of the earlier episodes of "The Fairly OddParents". And that's when Suzanne showed up. However, we haven't been as close as we were when our friendship started out, and we've been arguing more often than not. They're not even friendly arguments." Dixie began.
"And you had just been in another argument by the time I showed up?" Diddy asked.
"Yeah. She left about a minute before you came over." Dixie said with a sigh. Then she added, "What she's done lately is unforgivable! But what she did today... I came close to throwing her out the door! And I would've if she hadn't left like she did!"
"Apparently, what she did must've been awful." Diddy said.
"It was. We were sitting there, watching "The Fairly OddParents"... actually, I was watching the show, and Suzanne was ruining it for me." Dixie said.
"How did she ruin it?" Diddy asked.
"Well, during the first episode we watched, I started to hear a sound that I usually didn't hear in the episode, and it wasn't the T.V. making that sound, either. Guess what? The sound was coming from Suzanne. She was grumbling under her breath just loud enough for me to hear! And she kept it up through the whole episode! I couldn't even block out her noise! When the episode was over, she stopped grumbling! But her grumbling kept me from enjoying the episode. I didn't even laugh at the funny parts." Dixie said.
"That's all?" Diddy asked.
"Oh, no! She did more than just that. When the next episode came on, she started causing trouble again. This time, whenever a character said something, I always heard a voice softly saying, 'no' to everything that was said. Sure enough, Suzanne was the one behind that. And, as you might have guessed, she was saying the word just loud enough for me to hear, and she kept it up through that episode as well! Just like the grumbling, I couldn't block that out, either! Plus, she made it so I didn't enjoy that episode, either." Dixie said.
"What's her deal?!" Diddy asked, starting to hate Suzanne more than he already did. He'd met her shortly after she and Dixie became friends, and she rubbed him the wrong way, although he didn't say anything to Dixie about that. But now it seemed like Suzanne was rubbing Dixie the wrong way.
"That's what I'd like to know! I'd put up with her nonsense with great patience, which wasn't easy, but it was when the 3rd episode came on that I'd had enough! As soon as the episode began, she started yelling insults at Cosmo! Yeah, she was yelling at him very loudly, and I couldn't even hear the episode! There was no way I could block that out, and I wasn't about to turn up the volume, 'cause if I did, it might have turned up the volume of her voice as well. I put up with it for 2 minutes before I shut off the T.V. To my surprise, she wasn't all that happy about it. However, I am glad that her anger prevented her from turning the T.V. back on." Dixie said.
"Geez, she complains the whole time the show is on, and when you finally shut it off, she still complains!" Diddy realized.
"Yeah! I mean, I sit through movies and shows I haven't seen that she likes, and does she see me complain?! NO! I watch them, though I regret watching what she likes more often than not. But don't ever tell her I said that!" Dixie said.
"Wouldn't dream of it." Diddy said.
"Thanks. In fact, she's never once asked to see shows and movies that I like! Now that she has watched something I like, I'm kinda glad she hadn't before!" Dixie said.
"Wait a second! She makes you sit through things she likes, but she never watches the things you like?!" Diddy asked.
"That's right." said Dixie.
"You've gotta be kidding me!" Diddy groaned.
"I wish I was." Dixie replied.
"That's not what I was hoping to hear." Diddy told her.
"I wasn't happy about saying it." Dixie told him. Then she realized that talking with Diddy had helped her greatly. He was there to listen, and that was all she needed.
"Wow, I actually feel a lot better now. Diddy was right." Dixie thought.
"Say, if "The Fairly OddParents" is still on... would you like to watch it with me? And I promise to behave better than Suzanne did!" Diddy suddenly said.
"I know you'll behave. You like the show." Dixie said.
"So... can we watch?" Diddy asked.
"Of course!" Dixie said, turning the T.V. back on, and sure enough, the show was still on! Diddy and Dixie watched "The Fairly OddParents" for the rest of the afternoon, and Dixie was able to enjoy the show, 'cause she was watching it with someone she loved, someone who wouldn't ruin it for her.
Wow, Suzanne was a lousy friend, ruining Dixie's afternoon! But Diddy came and made everything better. And this story is a chapter story, so stay tuned, 'cause there's more on the way!
