Thoughts

Authors Note: Takes place during the episode 'A Clue for Scooby Doo' (mostly because I
happened to watch it this morning). Knowing which one it is isn't terribly important, but
it's the ep where the ghost steals a bunch of yachts.

I followed Shaggy and Scooby up the hill towards the spooky lighthouse.

Fred and Daphne just happen to be off alone again. How handy. Yeah, I know what
*those* two are up to. I thought sarcastically. 'Oh Velma, why don't you go with
Shaggy and Scooby.' Hrrmp. Because we know they need *so* much help.

Shaggy and Scooby started whimpering as we approached the lighthouse. Okay, they
probably do. I sighed.

I suppose I should accept it. "Ouch!" I tripped over a rock and nearly lost my glasses.

"You okay, Velma?" Shaggy asked.

"Fine." I should really tape these things onto my head.

I mean, Daphne's the pretty one, the skinny one, the one with all of the money. I know
it's not her fault she's prettier than me. Hell, everyone's prettier than me. I'll bet Scooby's
gotten more than I have!

And it's not as though I *want* to date Fred. She can have him. But who does that leave
me with? Shaggy?

"Hey Velma, what's so funny?"

I squelched my laughing. "Nothing, Shaggy."

We came to the lighthouse door. Scooby and Shaggy were arguing over who would
knock. Yeah. Lovin' my life.
