Be careful what you wish for

A Spongebob fan fiction

________________________________________________

Squidward's P.O.V

I sit on my upstairs chair as I watch the night sky, looking up at the stars. The night is similar to how it was one year ago. The night I made that wish. The one I remember to this day.

FLASHBACK

________________________________________________

I watched the sky, just like this night, listening to the most annoying sound in the world, Spongebob and Patrick not being able to shut up. As I watched the sky I saw a shooting star go through the sky. I knew exactly what I wanted to wish for. For Spongebob to shut up… permanently.

Be careful what you wish for.

The next day, at the Krusty Krab, the whole place was practically empty. We should've been laid off, but my stupid cheapskate boss won't let us, and if someone actually tried to sue us, Spongebob comes in and defends the whole company. Whoop Dee friggin' do! Just then this man walked in. He was a great white, sleek, black hair, and a unbuttoned shirt. He looked around before walking up to the idiot himself, Spongebob. He looked down at the sponge before saying. "Nice looking spatula, I have one just like it. Names Abalone." Before long, the two began talking about being a fry cook. It all ended with Abalone offering to come over to show and trade spatulas. So the sponge gave his address and bid Abalone a farewell. For some reason, the name seemed oddly familiar.

Be careful what you wish for.

At night, I heard Spongebob and Patrick doing whatever it is they do. Just then, I heard a boat pull up next to Spongebob's giant pineapple house. I laid down, just wishing for that annoying sponge and star to shut up. Then I heard screaming, and thrashing, then everything stopped. I heard the boat quickly drive away. Then complete silence.

The next day, Spongebob didn't show up to work. Same as the next day, and the next, and so on and so forth. He didn't make any noise at his house. I called the cops after the thrashing and all they found was a destroyed house with a snail, alive. Gary. I now remembered who Abalone was. Abalone Capone, Bikini Bottoms most infamous gangster. Spongebob had given his address to a criminal. Patrick and his body were found outside of Bikini Bottom. The Krusty Krab closed down. The most legendary person in Bikini Bottom was dead. He was just as I wished, to be permanently silent

Now you got what you wished for.

END FLASHBACK

I continued to watch the stars, holding back tears. I saw another shooting star flash through the sky. I knew exactly my wish. I wished Spongebob was walking among us again. That's all I wanted.

Be careful what you wish for.
