I'd just like to start off by thanking everyone for such fin tastic feedback on A Wave of Emotions! It turned out to be the most succeeded story on my Fan fic account, and I got nothing but good reviews! So thank you all for that and without further ado, here is my Halloween Story. Enjoy!
"I got it!" Gil exclaimed. He and Goby were at the mall today. Goby sat on the couch in the costume store watching his friend go through various racks of clothing. The blue-haired guppy picked up some ripped clothing. "I'm going to be a zombie for Halloween!"
"A zombie," Goby repeated.
"Yeah. It's gonna look so sick!" He picked up a red tie lying on the floor, and examined it. "I bet Bubble Puppy can chew this up before the end of October, can't you, boy?"
"Arf, arf!" He barked happily.
"Weren't you a zombie a couple years ago?"
Gil gasped. "IT WAS A MUMMY!"
Goby put his arms up defensibly and laughed a little. "My bad." Gil's puppy swam to him as he patted his head. "Is Bubble Puppy going to dress up too?"
"You bet!" Gil replied, as he swam to the front. He gasped. "Oh no! They're out of fake blood!"
Goby raised his eyebrow. "What do you need fake blood for?"
"My costume!"
"Can't you just use hot sauce of ketchup?"
"No way!" Gil smiled. "I don't want to attract bugs! Besides, we're gonna head to another store later to get Bubble Puppy something for Halloween. Maybe I can get it there." He gathered up all his stuff, and placed it on the counter. He turned to his friend. "What are you going to be for Halloween?"
"Actually, I'm not going to—"
"tell me?" he finished. The merman chuckled. "That's alright I'll figure out!" He got out his wallet from the front pouch of his backpack, and slid a twenty dollar bill on the counter. "Ooooh I can't wait! Halloween is my second favourite time of the year besides Christmas!"
Goby nodded grinning while making a stressed look to the side.
Gil's phone vibrated. "Oh that's my dad. I gotta head home now." He grabbed his shopping bag and thanked the crab behind the counter. The guppies, and Bubble Puppy swam out the store and then outside.
"Bye!" Gil said cheerfully.
"Later!" Goby said waving with two fingers. The dark skinned guppy swam in the opposite direction and headed home in as little as five minutes. Goby opened the door to find nobody home. He then swam to the kitchen and fixed himself a sandwich. All of a sudden, his phone started to ring. It was Molly. He put it on speaker phone. "Yo,"
"Goby!" Molly exclaimed. She was in her bedroom smoothing her bed. "Did you tell Gil?"
He rubbed his forehead, and sighed. "I couldn't,"
"WHAT?!" Deema shouted into Molly's phone. She sat next to her friend and put her phone on speaker. "Why didn't you tell Gil we're not going trick-or-treating this year?"
"I don't know," Goby hesitated as he spread the mayo on his toast. "He was just so excited for Halloween, and he got his costume ready and.."he drifted off. "You know how he is."
"We do know how he is." Molly chimed in with a soft tone. She sighed as her voice turned serious. "But we trying to break the news to him remember? Oona failed to tell him, you've failed to tell him, now Deema has to—"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Deema said in a loud voice. "You're next to tell him!"
"No!" Molly shouted as she put her hand over the receiver. Her voice got quiet. "I can't do that to my boo!"
"You're what now?" Goby laughed.
"You heard that?!" the pink-haired guppy shrieked. She then hung up the phone.
