Notes: Someone in my class thinks Sandy is a BOY! So I was kind of inspired. Thanks for the reviews guys. It will help me become a better writer.

Title: Beautiful


'To Sandy, the smartest, prettiest Squirrel in Bikini Bottom, Signed: A Friend'. Sandy knew exactly who sent the message even if the sender did not know she knew. The annoying yet addictive laughter from the charming yellow sponge on the day gave it away.

It was sweet and touching.

She loved the message and bouquet of flowers as she held it close to her heart. No boys ever really called her pretty or gorgeous in high school. She was sometimes considered as manly for being extremely strong or a science freak but maybe the braces she wore didn't add hotness to her.

"Boo!"

"You're gonna have to try harder SpongeBob."

"Sandy," He whined. "I've been trying all week to frighten you. I'm beginning to think you're cheating."

"Well maybe Mr SqaurePants, you're not scary as you think you are." She challenged. SpongeBob didn't rise up to the bait and left it. She was just too good.

"What are you looking at?" Surrounding the squirrel was the Surprise Sandy Day letter and flowers from SpongeBob.

"Oooooo. Is that from a secret admirer." As he read the letter over her shoulder he reddened knowing who the sender was and what he implied. Sandy caught onto this and decided to have fun with the sponge.

"Yup it is, isn't it romantic? I do wonder who he is." She continued in a love struck voice "I wonder if he's funny, cute or works in a fast-food restaurant. Do you know who he could be? I would so love to kiss him." She gazed directly at SpongeBob and watched him flush all over; SpongeBob was just too easy.

"You would ki…Um, nope. No clue" His lying still needed improvement.

"Well if you ever meet him. Give him my thanks. Not a lot of guys consider me as pretty, some even forget I'm a girl." She laughed out loudly to hide the pain but knowing Sandy, SpongeBob knew she was trying to put up a brave front. It struck a nerve in SpongeBob that some guys didn't think Sandy was pretty. Well except for Larry but SpongeBob wasn't fond of him. (Watch Ripped Pants, you'll understand)

"Well some guys are barnacle heads. Sandy you're smart, strong and awesome. Everything a guy could want and more. The admirer himself is an idiot because you're not pretty Sandy. You're beautiful…that was what I was supposed to…" He quickly altered his words "I-I mean that's what the guy was supposed write down: 'to the beautiful girl in Bikini Bottom, world even'." It was silent in Sandy's room for a minute or two. Neither spoke after the mini-confession. The silence made SpongeBob rock back and forth on his heels. He blew it. She couldn't know, not yet.

He turned facing the door. "Well would you look at the time. I think Gary is gonna…" His words were lost down in his throat as a warm blur of brown was hugging his body closely to theirs stopping his escape.

"Say to the admirer; thank you." SpongeBob nodded and returned the hug. On Surprise Sandy Day next week he was going to re-word his messages more properly and meaningful. The word Beautiful would be the first word on the balloon.
