Chapter 9

It was the next day...the art show was that night and Nny was very nervous. He drove past Pepito's house and got out of his car. He walked up to the door with a strange box in his hand.

Nny sighed. "Okay...here I goooo..." (FOOK I HATE TALKING TO PEOPLE LIKE THIS!)He thought as he rang the doorbell.

Pepito answered the door, his toothbrush still in his mouth. "Huh...What dooooff you want? ...HMM!"

He spit out the brush and smiled. "AH! HEY, NNY! WHAT'S UP?"

"Uhh...Hi, Pepito...is Squee up yet?"

"Nope...he is still asleep...(Ay-ay-ay, he is muy caliente in his sleep...) We stayed up to late playing Zombie pig slayers last night So...yeah."

"Yeah...that game is cool...well, can you give this to him for me when he gets up?"

Pepito took the box and nodded. "Huh...Sure.

"Thanks! Well, see you kids tonight, remember the art show is at my place at 5:30 pm, okay?"

"Si. Well, see ya later!"

"BYE!" Nny waved and ran off.

"I wonder what it is..." Pepito shook the box curiously as if he could figure out what it was by the noise it made. Hmm... where did I spit my tooth brush...?"

Later that day Nny was putting up his art stuff and setting everything in place for the art show.

"Oh, god..." Nny wrung his hands in nervousness. "I'm gonna have to f-ing talk to people...that are probably gonna hate my work...SHIT I AM SCARED! ...But..."

He stroked a big covered painting on the wall. "...Oh well...I only care what you will think...so...like an old pal said FUCK FEAR! HEY, MAYBE ONE OF THE FAT ASSES - I MEAN ART CRITICS WILL LIKE MY WORK AND THAT CAN BE MY NEW JOB SO I DON'T GOTTA WORK WITH PEOPLE SO MUCH!" Nny smiled. "WE WILL SEE! YEP, NEW LIFE, NO HATE! I AM AT PEACE WITH MYSELF!"

He tripped over a chair.

"OW! YOU S-O-B CHAIR!" he said while stomping on it.

AT LAST THE ART SHOW WAS JUST MOMENTS AWAY!

Nny was looking in a mirror fixing his hair.

"HA! My hair is as easy to fix as ever...I actually kinda missed it for while..." Nny sighed. "I am about to piss in my pants with fear I just know it..."

(DING-DONG-DING-DONG-DING-DONG-DING-DONG-DING-DONG!

"I'M COMING!" Nny cried as he launched himself to open the door. "WHAT?... Hm?"

Pepito and Squee eyed him oddly.

"Uh... HI, KIDS!" Nny shuffled his feet. "You two are early."

"We came early," Pepito said. "To give you a hand."

"GREAT!" Nny felt some of his earlier fear receding a bit. "THANK YOU, KIDS! I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET!"

He sniffled with joy a bit before getting excited again. " HEEEEEY! SQUEE I SEE YOU ARE WEARING TO OUTFIT I GAVE YOU!"

Squee nodded happily, looking cute in his black and red striped shirt with baggy black pants and black and red short boots. "Eheheh..."

"Yeah," Pepito teased. "He got all blushy and crap when he got it."

"Well..." Nny began. "I know that you aren't going back to that other place ever again...soooo I thought to go with a new start, some new clothes would be nice."

"Yeah I guess..." Squee smiled up at him. "Thank you, Johnny."

Nny smiled back. "You're very welcome, Todd."

Pepito watched the exchange with a look of disgust. "Bleeeeh..."

The happy pair team noogied Pepito. "WELL, LET'S GET READY!"
