It was blaring hot outside. The warmth felt wonderful on her fur but she couldn't help but feel sorry for SpongeBob. He had to keep changing the water in his bowl or else it would be much too hot for him. Man, I feel so terrible! All SpongeBob wanted to do was come in here and play. Now he's trapped in here with me. I wasn't even nice about it either; the first thing I did was yell at him. I hope he doesn't hate me now.

"Sandy! It's starting to get chilly out here! I think it's turning into fall!" SpongeBob was on the other side of the dome playing with the bird bath. Sandy never knew how easily he could get bored. Sometimes it was almost like she was babysitting him.

"Ok SpongeBob! You better come on inside now and get some breakfast!" She watched SpongeBob start to skip over to the tree house. Once he was right in front of her she turned and went into the kitchen. She could hear SpongeBob following her, singing something about autumn leaves. She laughed. That little guy can be so entertaining.

"Hey Sandy? Can I cook pancakes for you today? After all you cooked last night and I'm a little bored."

"Sure SpongeBob, I'll be in the living room." She went and sat down on the couch and flipped on the TV. Soon, her mind began to wander. She began thinking about SpongeBob. He really was such a sweet little guy. She began to think of the first time they had met. All the trouble he went through just to impress her. It made her wonder if he still felt that way about her. She was so deep in thought that she didn't even notice when SpongeBob called for her to come eat. He eventually had to come in and get her.

"Sandy are you alright? I called you about three minutes ago and you didn't answer."

"Oh sorry SpongeBob, I was just thinking."

"About what?"

"Just umm… stuff. It doesn't matter." SpongeBob stared at her. He could tell that something was on her mind but decided not to bother her anymore. "Well let's go eat; I'm starving!" She jumped up and ran off into the kitchen. Why am I even thinking like that? SpongeBob's my best friend and nothing more. I doubt he's even into me like that anyways. Moments later SpongeBob came in and sat down next to her. Usually he would sit across from her but today was special. He decided that he wanted to tell her about how he felt. He had been thinking about it earlier while he was playing around with the birdbath. His plan was to wait until it started snowing again. Then he would wait for the perfect moment to tell her. He could already feel a chill blowing through the window. Hopefully it would start snowing soon. He grabbed a fork and picked up a small stack of pancakes, put them on his plate, and smothered them in syrup. Sandy did the same. Something was bugging her and that made him even more nervous. What if she didn't feel the same way about him? It would be so awkward staying trapped in the dome after what he said. Especially for her. He almost changed his mind until he saw her staring at him with a faraway look. He had seen that look before. One time long ago when Mr. Krabs had fallen in love with Mrs. Puff he had stared at her the same way. Was it true that maybe Sandy liked him too? That would be perfect. From outside, little pieces of cold white stuff began to drift in from the window. SpongeBob pulled off his helmet.

"Well it started snowing again. I guess I should close the windows." Sandy stood up and closed all the windows. But she didn't sit back down. It made her blush to sit next to SpongeBob. Hopefully he hadn't seen her. She wanted to tell him about her feelings but was too afraid. What if he didn't like her too? Later that day they went outside and were having a snowball fight. Sandy ran behind her tree and was catching her breath when she heard SpongeBob slip on the ice and crash down. She ran back over to him to make sure he was alright.

"SpongeBob are you al –" She slipped on the same spot and fell over on top of him. She quickly rolled over beside him and they both burst out laughing. SpongeBob rolled on to his side so that he was facing her.

"You look pretty Sandy."

"Thanks SpongeBob, that's really sweet." She started to blush again and noticed that he was too. Maybe now was the time to tell him about her feelings. SpongeBob felt the same way too. They both started to speak at the same time. "Go ahead SpongeBob; you first."

"Sandy I… well umm… lately I've started to get these special feelings around you." He wasn't exactly sure of how to tell her. He had never told anyone that he loved them before.

"I think I know what you mean SpongeBob. I really like you too." They both smiled at each other and turned an even darker shade of red. At that moment it started to grow dark again. "Well it's time to go to bed. I'll see you in the morning SpongeBob. Good night." She turned around and left. SpongeBob just laid there and watched her go. She really was beautiful. He couldn't wait for the next. But what would tomorrow bring?
