Okay, chapter nine, the chapter you've all been waiting for (but it's not the last =]) so, on with it I say!

Flippy was sleeping after the good time he had had just an hour earlier. He was smiling in his sleep, because of the dream he was having.

...

Flippy was dressed up in a tuxedo, straightening his tie and fixing his hair. He then rang the doorbell to a house, then waited patiently for it to be opened. Not too long later, it was opened.

Wildflower was standing in the doorway, wearing a black evening gown that had a bunch of silver sparkles at the bottom, slowly fading up the top of the dress. She was also wearing black high heeled wedges, and she had her beautiful, dishwater blonde hair put up in a ponytail with a black satin ribbon.

"Hi, Flippy. Ready to go?" She asked, her voice sounding so soft. "Yes." He said.

They got into his Humvee, and they started to drive away.

Moments later, they were at a park, sitting at a table. The park was right next to a lake that shimmered in the moonlight, making it a beautiful place for the two to enjoy one another's company.

The whole while they were there, they had dinner, went on a little boat ride on the lake, and went for a walk. They were now sitting by the lake, side by side under a tree, and watching the water ripple and shimmer in the bright light of the moon. Flippy looked into Wildflower's eyes. The reflecton from the light shining off the lake made her eyes as bright and beautiful as the moon itself. He sighed happily.

"So Wildflower, did you have a great time tonight?" He asked.

Wildflower looked back up at him, and said, "Yes Flippy. It was the most wonderful night of my life. You sure know how to give a girl a good time."

"And you sure know how to make someone feel better about themselves. I don't know where I'd be right now if you never came to Happy Tree Town, Wildflower." He said.

Wildflower smiled at Flippy, and he smiled back. They both stared deeply and lovingly into eachother's eyes for a while, just enjoying the moment. But Flippy broke the silence.

"Wildflower, there's something I want to tell you." He said.

"What?" Wildflower asked.

"I want you to know, that you're the most beautiful, kind, caring person I've ever met. I've felt this way since the day I met you, and I've always wanted to say this. Wildflower, I love you."

Wildflower smiled the biggest smile she could possibly manage. She gave him a hug, and he gave her one back, then they both looked into eachother's eyes again, their faces coming in closer for a kiss. But, suddenly, they were interrupted by a bowie knife that flew towards them out of nowhere. It barely missed their heads, and stabbed into the tree.

Startled, the two looked behind them. And there, standing before them, was Evil Flippy, giving his wild, crazy grin. Flippy grabbed Wildflower's hand, and they pulled to their feet and began running. Evil Flippy just laughed, and took off after them.

After a minute, he caught up, and tried to grab Wildflower by her hair, but he missed and pulled out the ribbon, making her hair fall back. This made Evil Flippy speed up, trying to get in front of them. Flippy and Wildflower made it to the Humvee, and quickly got in and locked the doors.

Flippy got his keys out of his pocket, and tried to start the car. But his heart sank whenever the vehicle didn't make any sound. He tried a few more times, but no success. Then, he heard a tapping noise outside his window. He looked and saw Evil Flippy, grinning evily and holding up a car battery.

"Looking for this?" He said, tauntingly.

The two sat in the car, frozen by fear and the thought that there was nothing they could do to get away now. Evil Flippy had them exactly where he wanted them.

Evil Flippy cackled as he broke the car window. Flippy and Wildflower were hugging eachother and watching as Evil Flippy unlocked the door, and climbed in.

The two closed their eyes and waited for their fate. Then, slowly Evil Flippy took a bowie knife, and...

Flippy sprang up from his pillow, breathing fast. He looked around his room. Not much damage was done this time, just a broken window and a knife through his wall.

But Flippy still had an unshakable, unsettling feeling. He went to the bathroom and washed his face. He looked in the mirror. His face had a mix between a tired and worried expression on it.

Just then, his expression was replaced with the face of Evil Flippy grinning back at him.

"Finally awake from fantasy land, I see? Get over yourself, Flippy. It's never gonna happen. I'll make sure of it myself."

Flippy began to feel enraged, but not in the flipping out way, nor was it just a feeling of slight annoyance. It was in a way he never felt before, like he actually had control over his anger for once.

"For the last and final time, if you don't leave me alone-"

"What do you think you can do?" Evil Flippy said, cutting off Flippy.

Flippy said nothing back.

"Exactly. You're such a weakling. I bet little girls have more spine than you could ever hope to have, you maggot."

Just then, Flippy just couldn't take it anymore. He picked up a hairbrush, and struck the mirror. It shattered into pieces. Flippy smiled. "That'll get you to leave me alone for a while." He said, smiling at the pieces of glass that had fallen to the floor.

On his way out of the bathroom, he dropped the hairbrush and went on his way to think of how he could reveal his true feelings for Wildflower to her.

How was this chapter, everyone? It seems a little short to me, but I have to get ready for bed for school tomorrow, so, that's probably why. Anyway, the reason it took so long to update was because I was grounded from the internet for a while. Well, anyway, don't forget to review!
