A few months before Peppermint Fizz told me that I had to get all of these chores done or I would have to leave Strawberryland, on a warm summer afternoon I was laughing at Strawberry Shortcake who was playing dress up pretending she was a famous actress. She turned around in a silly accent and said
"Oh you want my autograph to miss ?" I just continued laughing.
"Strawberry you really make me laugh." I said as I caught my breath. Just then Lemon Merigne kept calling our names as she barged in .
"Strawberry Shortcake! Chelsea Starr! You would never believe this!" Lemon said as she handed Strawberry Shortcake a magazine. Strawberry then gasped as she looked at a certain photo with a girl who wore a lime green dress. She also had this snobby look on her face as she posed for the camera.
"This couldn't be could it?" I was confused.
"Do you know her Strawberry?" I asked.
"Yes it's Lime light. I haven't seen my best friend in ages." I cringed
"Oh." I said I then just stayed quiet while Strawberry and Lemon talked about plans for me, Lemon , Orange Blossom, and Ginger Snap to go to Berry wood studios.
Once we arrived there we all got out of a car after a two hour drive my legs were cramping but when Strawberry got out she was nervous . That was when I made a move to hold her hand in which she accepted.
"Thanks Chelsea when your with me you always make me feel safe." I blushed. Everyone snickered a little. Orange Blossom rolled the camera and made a little joke.
"Here we are at Berry wood studios and Chelsea and Strawberry Shortcake's romance just got sweeter."
"Orange turn that off ." I said blushing furiously now .
"Strawberry Shortcake is that you?" Strawberry then let go of my hand and ran to Limelight and gave her a hug.
"Lime light! It's been so long I missed you !" Strawberry said . The girls then started to rekindle their friendship as I and the others decided to tour Berrywood .
"That was so much fun!" I said . As we all planned to meet up at a nearby restaurant. My heart stopped as I noticed how close Strawberry and Limelight have gotten since we first left them. They were in the back corner in a booth and Limelight had her arm around Strawberry's shoulder and they were holding hands. I let a short growl take over. And slightly cursed.
"Bitch." I said the girls looked at me confused.
"What's wrong Chelsea?" Orange said.
"Don't you see what's happening ? Limelight is trying to take her away from me." I said as tears started to role down my eyes. Gingersnap giggled.
"I figured you liked Strawberry Shortcake." I blushed.
"Wait... no that's not.." music then started playing Ginger was right. Ever since the land of dreams I've been thinking a lot about Strawberry 's and my relationship. I sighed is not like we're moving to Berrywood or anything. We all sat down and ordered our food. Apparently Limelight was making a film but it hasn't even been produced yet because she claims that it's the director's fault . Strawberry had a different complaint.
"Lime... I saw what had happened you were how do I put it in a nice way." I said it for Strawberry.
"You were a jerk." Everyone. Was stunned at my choice of words.
"Excuse me? Who are you again ?" I sighed.
"I'm Strawberry Shortcake's best friend . I won't let a jerk like you enter her life."
"Chelsea! Calm down! What's wrong with you!" I sighed.
"I... I love you Strawberry." I said.
"I love you to but you shouldn't be treating Lime like this. Are you jealous?" I simple sighed then stood up paid for my food and called a taxi.
"I'll see you girls back in Strawberryland." I said .
"I'm sorry Limelight I don't know what happened Chelsea is usually really nice she's never..." Limelight put a finger on Strawberry's lips.
"She loves you Strawberry." Lime light said.
"She does?" Strawberry said in confusion.
"Didn't you see how she was behaving when I held your hand?" Lime said as she then made a move to hold Strawberry's hand . She also then sat Strawberry down on the couch.
" Do you even know what love is?" Lime light said as she then placed a hand on Strawberry's cheek. Strawberry flinched at her sudden touch.
"Limelight what are you doing?" Limelight then placed a warm kiss on her lips. Strawberry was shock at the sudden movement and pushed Lime light off.
"What was that!" Strawberry said.
"You never kissed anyone ? We have to do it in movies all the time."
"No! I never had kissed anyone before but why did you kissed me just then? It felt wrong and weird !"
"It may feel wrong with a stranger like me but when you get back Strawberry tell me you'll give your love to Chelsea Starr. She looks like someone who needs it more than I do." Lime said.
"Is something wrong with Chelsea?" Strawberry said.
"She's like you. She has never experienced love . You may have given her friendship love but she needs more Strawberry Shortcake please tell me you'll never leave her!" Limelight said with a serious tone.
"Of course I'll never leave her Limelight I promise with all my heart." Strawberry said.
"Good you and the others better head back soon they should be coming back from that movie premiere . I'm just glad I was able to tell you . Maybe if I haven't moved away from you we could have been a couple but now I understand why she needs you Strawberry more than I do. Tell Chelsea I'm sorry when you get back . "
Strawberry 's view point
"There's more to friendship? What is love? Do I want to be with Chelsea forever?" Strawberry smiled at the thought of her and Chelsea living together and running their own business.
"I do. I love her I know I do. Chelsea I hope I didn't hurt you please let my love heal your pain I'll be yours forever ." Strawberry said as she looked at the sunset ahead .
Present time
"Okay is halfway through. I have 20 more chores to get done but it's already Saturday afternoon is this even possible Strawberry Shortcake?" I said with tears running down my cheeks . I wiped away my tears.
"Stop crying Chelsea I need to concentrate . I'm never leaving Strawberry Shortcake I love her. She's the one I want to be with until the day I die. Peppermint can't force me to do all of these chores this is insane! I care about everyone from the very beginning they have all sacrificed so much just for me. And then Strawberry Shortcake saved my life from pain and loneliness with out her I could have ended up in Hell . Our adventure is just beginning . " I felt a hand grab on my shirt that turned me around. I saw Strawberry Shortcake who pulled me into a passionate kiss .
"I love you to. You're the one I want to be with forever. Waking up everyday to your beautiful face to you cheering me up and protecting me . I love you Chelsea Starr I'll help you finish these chores. Then we can move onto a new adventure as in which we will discover our love for each other ." Strawberry said as she held a hand on my cheek and tried not to cry.
"Okay love birds knock it off." Peppermint Fizz said in the distance.
"Chelsea you don't have to finish your chores you pass."
"Wait what? I thought you said I had to finish all of these." Peppermint Fizz came up to me and grabbed the parchment and tore it into .
"No. I was testing your feelings. You two love each other there no doubt . Chelsea and Strawberry I herby decree to not being mayor anymore but I officially announce you two as a couple." Everyone cheered. I smiled as Strawberry held my hand . A mew adventure lies in store for all of us and I mean all of us.
A few months latter
I kissed Strawberry on the cheek as I came out of our bedroom as I saw her reading a article.
"Morning Chelsea. Hey I was thinking, I love Strawberry Land a lot but I think it's time for a change . She said pointing to a new city in which I have never seen before.
"Berry Bitty city?" I questioned.
"Yea the population is a whole lot bigger than Strawberryland . We could even open up a cafe ." Strawberry said. I kissed strawberry on her sweet lips in which she kissed back in return.
"If you really want to move to Berry Bitty City then let's do it there's a whole new city to be explored."
"Really?!" Strawberry said . I smiled.
"Really."
Strawberry pulled me down on the couch. I almost fell on her face she laughed and held my face in her hand as she tilted our heads into a more comfortable position.
"I love you Strawberry Shortcake ."
"I love you Chelsea Starr."
"Hey! What's this about moving!" We both banged our heads as we saw Ginger snap in the doorway with everyone else.
"Girls we decided to go on a new adventure. " I said.
"Hey hey hey! If you're going on a adventure we are to right guys?" Everyone noded.
"I guess everyone is moving to Berry Bitty City.." I said .
THE END
