This is just another fluffy little Skilene drabble. I hope it's longer and better than the first one. I do not own the Pengiuins of Madagascar. They belong to their respective owners, even though I would love to own them. Warning, there is excessive dialogue in this. Enjoy!

The biggest mistake I made that entire day was stopping a the lemur habitat before I visited the penguins.

" Hi Marlene!" Mort squeaked as he saw me stop by.

"Hello, Mort" I said kindly. "I'm just stopping to say hi before I visit the penguins."

The royal King Julien decided to appear at that moment. He sauntered over from his bouncy castle and said "Hello Marlene, I see that you have stopped by to see you boyfriend, moi.", while pointing to himself.

"Eww! I would never date you, and I don't have a boyfriend."

" Well, you must like someone then. Who is it?"

" I'm not telling you."

"Tell me Marlene!"

"Why should I?"

"Because I am the king, and the king wants to know who you have a crush on."

"But that's none of the king's business."

"I still want to know."

Mort, who was looking admiringly at Julien, pipped up " She said she was going to go visit the penguins!"

" Ohhh! The penguins you say? Who is it Marlene? The king demands that you tell me! Is it Private?"

No, just no. Private is super sweet and thoughtful, but he just isn't my type. I like someone large and in charge, a leader with real authority, unlike Mr. Lemur King over there. "Ugh, no, I don't like Private and I'm still not telling you."

"Does Mort get to touch the royal feet now?" Mort squeaked with hopeful excitement.

This looks like my chance to escape with out telling them. Slowly, I edged toward the exit of the exhibit. "No Mort. How many time do I have to tell you? No one touches the royal feet." Julien sniffed haughtily.

"Awwww..." The poor little lemur sounded seriously disappointed.

"Marlene! Don't try to sneak way!" Rats, Julien noticed before she could escape.

"Oh! I think I know who it is." He said with a knowing look and a sly smirk. " you like Skipper, don't you? I can tell, I can see it on your face."

I felt the overwhelming wave of mortification drown me after his words. I knew the horrible emotion was written all over my face, and Julien could read it like an open book.

"I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT!" he elatedly shouted. MARLENE HAS A CRUSH ON... Mmmpphh! I quickly clamped my hand over his mouth and pulled home into a choke-hold, efficiently silencing him. There was no way Skipper wouldn't be able to hear if Julien had finished that sentence; the penguins were right across from the lemur habitat.

I glared down at him, still holding tightly in the choke-hold. I would have done anything if I could have wiped the smugness off of his face.

YAY! I got this idea from an online list of writing prompts, because I had a case of the dreaded writer's block. Hopefully, I'm cured. I'm sorry to all of my fans who were thinking I must have died because I haven't written a story in so long. I was looking at my legacy stats, and I realized just how blessed I am to have so many views, reviews, favorites, and follows. I want to thank anyone who has read my stories. Thank you, and as always, please review!
