PUPS & THE FRIENDBAE

I DON'T OWN PAW PATROL ONLY MY OC'S

It was a beautiful sunny Sunday morning. Angel, Carlana, Elias, Everest & Jake were in Los Angeles because Elias was competing in the Junior Bodybuilding competition being held that day. With his new found superhuman strength & the physique that went along with it Elias was confident in his chances of winning. After waking up & getting dressed Elias went out to the balcony of the hotel room he was staying in & looked over the city.

"Los Angeles sure is a fascinating place. Considering how many famous people live here it's no wonder there are so many visitors to the city. Anyways I look forward to the bodybuilding competition later today. I think I've got a really good chance of winning. The other competitors will need to work hard to beat me. It's not going to be easy" said Elias with a confident grin. A short time later Angel, Carlana, Everest & Jake woke up & got dressed.

"Good morning. Did you all sleep well last night?" asked Angel in a curious voice.

"I certainly did. This has to be 1 of the best hotels in LA" said Carlana in a satisfied tone.

"Today's going to be awesome. When the bodybuilding competition comes around I'm going to dominate the other competitors" said Elias in a cocky manner.

"Before we head out we should get some breakfast" said Everest.

"You said it. Let's go" said Jake as everyone headed down to the hotel restaurant for breakfast. They had some buttered toast with orange juice which they all found a delight to eat. After breakfast was done Angel, Carlana, Elias, Everest & Jake headed out.

"Where do you guys want to go?" asked Angel in uncertainty.

"How about we go down to the beach? It's nice & warm so going there would be perfect" said Carlana with an eager smile.

"To the beach we go" said Elias as he & the others headed to the beach. Upon arriving they noticed a significant number of people there. Most of them were either soaking up some rays, playing volleyball, surfing or swimming.

"Looks like a lot of people have the same idea as us" said Everest with a chuckle.

"It's a beach day we'll surely remember for a long time" said Jake as everyone went to do their own thing. Angel & Everest decided to go for a swim, Carlana & Jake decided to surf & Elias decided to soak up the sun. After stripping down to his Speedo Elias lay down on a towel & relaxed. A short time later a boy with tan skin, spiky blonde hair & brown eyes wearing a sleeveless black top, jeans & black & white shoes walked by. When he saw Elias sunbathing he gasped for joy.

"I can't believe it. Elias Vincent is here in Los Angeles. I've always wanted to meet him" said the boy as he walked over to Elias feeling excited.

"Hello Elias. It's really nice to meet you. I'm Colby Xanderson. I'm a huge fan of yours" said the boy in an excited voice.

"It's nice to meet you too Colby. I'm flattered that you're such a big fan" said Elias as he shook Colby's hand.

"What brings you to Los Angeles?" asked Colby in a curious tone.

"I'm here to compete in the Junior Bodybuilding competition this afternoon. Until then I'm just chilling here on the beach" said Elias with a cheerful smile.

"I see. I'm also competing in the competition. Think you can handle my muscles?" asked Colby as he stripped to his Speedo & flexed his muscles.

"You have a pretty good physique. I'm not worried though. I think I can handle you" said Elias in a cocky manner. A girl with blonde wavy hair, tan skin & brown eyes wearing a cyan dress & matching shoes then walked over.

"Colby Xanderson what the hell do you think you're doing?" asked the girl in anger.

"I'm just talking to Elias Diane. I don't get why you're so jealous of me talking to others" said Colby with a frustrated sigh.

"Don't lie to me. I know you were flirting with him. You're such an unfaithful brat" said Diane as she growled.

"Leave him alone. You're being very rude" said Elias in an annoyed voice.

"He's my boyfriend. I can talk to him however I want. Right now I know for a fact that he's trying to make you feel attracted to him. He always talks about how you're his ideal man & that he'd love to be with you" said Diane with a scowl.

"If you don't go away I'll slap you in the face. Being Colby's girlfriend doesn't entitle you to treat him badly. I have a girlfriend anyways so I don't get why you're acting so jealous for. I refuse to allow a friend to be mistreated" said Elias in a blunt tone.

"This is your fault Colby. I swear you do this on purpose to get attention. I'm so sick of your crap. Go jump off a bridge jerk" said Diane as she punched Colby in the face & stormed off. Tears began running down Colby's face as he stood there in shock.

"What the hell is her problem? I didn't do anything wrong. Diane shouldn't treat me like this" said Colby through his tears. Elias got up & gave Colby a hug to make him feel better.

"It'll be OK. If you stay with me I promise to not let anyone treat you badly" said Elias in a reassuring manner.

"Thank you Elias. I'm so grateful for your kindness. You're a really sweet guy" said Colby in appreciation.

"You're welcome. You seem like a really cool guy to be with. I'd be glad to call you a friend" said Elias with a smile.

"Being your friend would make me the happiest kid in Los Angeles" said Colby as he grinned happily.

"Let's soak up some rays together my friend" said Elias as Colby & he lay down to sunbathe. Colby was ecstatic to be able to hang out with his favourite celebrity. Unbeknownst to Elias Colby was bisexual & was attracted to him. Colby hadn't publicly admitted this to anyone because he was afraid that he'd be ostracized for it. The only other people who seemed to know about Colby's attraction to Elias were his parents & Diane.

"Elias actually looks super cute in person. I never thought I'd ever actually get to hang out with him. In addition to his outer beauty he has a lot of inner beauty to match. I don't know if I'll ever be able to admit my true feelings though. I'm scared that it might make people think I'm a freak. If I ever do get to admit my feelings I'll feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders" thought Colby as he & Elias continued sunbathing. A short time later Angel, Carlana, Everest & Jake returned from surfing & swimming.

"Who's this guy Elias?" asked Angel as she pointed to Colby.

"I'm Colby Xanderson. You must be Elias' parents & pups" said Colby as he shook Angel & Everest's paws & Carlana & Jake's hands.

"Actually we're his respite guardians. Angel's his pet while Everest belongs to us" said Carlana.

"OK. It's nice to meet you anyways" said Colby with a cheerful smile.

"How exactly do you know Elias?" asked Everest as she tilted her head in confusion.

"I'm a fan of the movies, songs & TV shows he does. For a long time I've always wanted to meet him. He's my celebrity idol" said Colby in an excited voice.

"I see. Looks like your dream to meet him has come true" said Jake with a chuckle.

"It sure has" said Colby as he nodded in agreement.

"Some girl named Diane got jealous of him hanging out with me & treated him poorly. I don't know where she's gone but we need to avoid her" said Elias.

"Good call. You guys want to meet my parents?" asked Colby in a curious tone.

"OK. Where are they?" asked Elias in an uncertain manner.

"I'll show you" said Colby as he took the others to a tanning salon near the beach. Inside his mother Corina was by the front desk. She had blonde hair, tan skin & brown eyes & wore a beautiful rainbow colored dress with matching stiletto heels.

"Hello Colby. Are these guys customers?" asked Corina with a smile.

"No they're my friends. Guys this is my mother Corina" said Colby.

"Nice to meet you Mrs Xanderson" said Elias as he & the others shook Corina's hand. A man with blonde shoulder length hair, brown eyes & tan skin wearing a Hawaiian style shirt, shorts & flip flops then entered the salon. It was Colby's dad Conrad.

"Hey there honey. How have things been here this morning?" asked Conrad in a chill manner.

"It's been a fantastic morning. Quite a few customers have come in to get the desired tans they want" said Corina in cheerfulness.

"Excellent. Good to see you Colby. I see you have some friends" said Conrad with a grin.

"Guys this is my dad Conrad" said Colby as everyone shook Conrad's hand.

"Are you guys from out of town? I can't say I've seen you around before" said Corina.

"We're from Adventure Bay. The reason we came to Los Angeles was for the bodybuilding competition that's happening later today" said Elias as he smiled excitedly.

"I must admit you have a really good physique. It's like you go to the gym every day" said Conrad in an impressed voice.

"I think both Colby & yourself will do great" said Corina in a confident tone.

"You bet we will. I worked hard to get my body in great shape" said Colby as he flexed his muscles.

"I guess we'll see later who comes out on top. Anyways what do you feel like doing now?" asked Elias in a curious manner.

"How about we go & chill at the beach some more?" asked Colby.

"OK. Let's do it" said Elias as everyone returned to the beach. They stayed there for a few hours hanging out & enjoying the weather. Soon it was lunchtime. Everyone headed to a nearby restaurant where they decided to have steak with roast vegetables & gravy. It was a delicious meal that savored their taste buds.

"I love having a nice cooked meal. It never fails to satisfy my hunger" said Angel as she gobbled down her food.

"If this meat was liver I'd be even happier" said Everest as she licked her lips.

"This has to be 1 of the nicest restaurants in LA. The food here is beautiful" said Carlana in amazement.

"It sure is. Whenever my parents get the chance they always take me out to eat in places like this" said Colby as he finished eating.

"You're very to be able to dine at such fantastic eateries like this" said Elias.

"Agreed" said Jake with a nod. Everyone decided to go around checking out the sights in LA once lunch was over. They saw many different landmarks including the Hollywood sign, LAX, the site of the infamous attack that sparked the LA Riots & the various parks that held wide open spaces for people to play & run around in. Colby had a great time hanging out with Elias. Befriending him was easily the best part of the whole day. Soon it was 3:00. The Junior Bodybuilding competition was due to start in an hour. Everyone returned to the hotel where the competition would be held. The event hall was where everything was set up for the competition. Unlike normal bodybuilding competitions it wasn't just poses that were being judged. The contestants also had to show off their strength by lifting weights, moving heavy objects from 1 point to another & holding up a heavy box off the ground for as long as possible. Colby & Elias headed backstage to prepare for the competition. Several other muscular boys were there in their Speedos oiling up & practicing their poses. Among the competitors were an African American boy with blonde crew cut hair & blue eyes & an Italian boy with green eyes & short dark hair. Colby recognized both of them.

"Looks like Kenneth Smith & Roberto Panucci are here" said Colby.

"How exactly do you know them?" asked Elias in a curious voice.

"They've been in other competitions I've competed in. Kenneth's from a military family & is a boxer while Roberto's a nasty bully who constantly comes after me" said Colby with a sigh.

"OK" said Elias as Roberto noticed Colby & walked over to him.

"Well, well, well if it isn't the gayest bodybuilder in the world" said Roberto in a mocking tone.

"I'll wipe that smug look off your face when I destroy you in this competition" said Colby in a blunt manner.

"I don't think so. Is this your new butt buddy?" asked Roberto as he nodded to Elias.

"I'm his friend. You're a very arrogant little jerk" said Elias with a harsh glare.

"Watch your mouth. You & the faggot better stay out of my way" said Roberto in malice.

"You don't scare me. Buzz off" said Elias as Colby & himself went to get themselves ready for the competition. Overall there were 10 competitors in the entire competition. The audience began to fill up as the competition drew closer. By the time 4:00 rolled around the seating for the audience was almost completely full. The competition's host Randy Sexton then addressed the audience.

"Welcome to the Los Angeles Junior Bodybuilding competition. Today some of the strongest kids from around the world will compete for the title of Junior Champion. Along with the title the winner will receive a special trophy, a protein food package that'll help gain & maintain muscle & a cash prize of $10,000. Let's get the competition underway. For the 1ST round the contestants will lift weights to show off their strength. They'll be judged on how many reps they can do & the pace at which they do their reps" said Randy as the contestants came on stage. Each of them received 50 lb weights to use for the round. After being given the signal to begin they started doing reps. Elias breezed through the round barely breaking a sweat while the other contestants tried to keep up. By the end of the round Elias was the front runner having completed 250 reps while the others could only manage between 100 & 200. For round 2 the contestants were required to carry a series of heavy water jugs from 1 end of the stage to the other carrying only 1 jug at a time. They'd be judged on how quickly they completed the task. Elias continued dominating the competition finishing in 3 minutes while the other contestants took 10-15 minutes. Round 3 had the contestants holding heavy boxes up off the ground for as long as possible where they'd be judged on how long they lasted. The audience was stunned to see Elias hold out for 30 minutes as all the other contestants dropped within 15-20 minutes. For the final round the contestants posed in different ways including front & back double bicep, side chest, front & back lat spread, most muscular & side triceps among other positions where they'd be judged on their physiques. Upon completion of the final round the judges finished their scoring of the contestants with the results being handed to Randy.

"The judges have made their decision. The top 3 contestants are… Colby Xanderson, Elias Vincent & Kenneth Smith. Please step forward" said Randy as Colby, Elias & Kenneth stepped forward. Most of the other contestants clapped & accepted their loss with grace while Roberto growled feeling robbed.

"1ST we'll reveal 3RD place. The 2ND runner up is… Kenneth Smith" said Randy as the crowd applauded. Kenneth was given a medal & $100 in cash for his placement.

"Good luck you 2" said Kenneth as he joined the other contestants.

"Either Colby Xanderson or Elias Vincent will become Junior Champion. The moment of truth has arrived. The 1ST runner up is… Colby Xanderson. Congratulations Elias Vincent you're the Junior Champion" said Randy as the audience cheered excitedly. Colby received a medal & $1,000 in cash while Elias received the trophy, food package & $10,000 in cash.

"Congratulations Elias. If anyone deserved to win over me it was you" said Colby as he & Elias shook hands.

"Thanks. You did a great job yourself. Well done" said Elias with a smile.

"That's all for today folks. Thanks for coming along. See you all later" said Randy as everyone left the event hall. Diane confronted Colby & Elias near the elevator.

"I knew you 2 had snuck off together. I bet you had fun with your little rendezvous didn't you Colby?" asked Diane in a disgusted voice.

"Knock it off Diane. We were competing in a bodybuilding competition which you knew was on today" said Colby in a frustrated tone.

"How much longer are you going to lie to me? You're using it as a cover for your infidelity. I know you & Elias were getting all loved up in a private area" said Diane as she slapped Colby in the face.

"That's enough Diane. You better get out of here or else" said Elias with an angry growl.

"What are you going to do?" asked Diane.

"I'll show you" said Elias as he punched Diane in the face with enough force to render her unconscious.

"That was satisfying. I'd say she got exactly what she deserved" said Colby in a relieved manner.

"You said it" said Elias as Colby & himself returned to Elias' hotel room. Angel, Carlana, Everest & Jake were waiting there for them.

"You 2 both did a great job today. Well done on your accomplishments" said Angel with a proud smile.

"Thanks. Today's been a fantastic day. I wish it never ended" said Colby.

"We need to go to the airport & get our flight back to Adventure Bay. It was nice meeting you & your parents Colby" said Carlana.

"Before you guys go can I get your number Elias? I want to be able to stay in contact" asked Colby in hopefulness.

"Sure thing dude" said Elias as Colby & he exchanged numbers. They were now able to call each other on the phone whenever they wanted.

"Enjoy your flight home" said Colby as he gave Elias a hug.

"We will. See you later" said Everest as she & the others left the room & checked out of the hotel. Colby went to find his parents while everyone else headed to LAX to fly home.

"In just a few hours we'll be back in Adventure Bay & able to relax for the evening" said Jake as everyone arrived at the airport. After checking in they waited for the flight to begin boarding. 30 minutes later Angel, Carlana, Elias, Everest & Jake boarded the plane & took their seats ready to fly home. The plane left Los Angeles at 5:00 & arrived in Adventure Bay at 7:00 with the flight being relaxed & uneventful. Upon arriving in Adventure Bay Angel, Carlana, Elias, Everest & Jake headed to Jake's cabin where they ate dinner before settling down for the evening. Later that night as Elias got ready for bed he thought about how good of a day it had been.

"I had a great day today. Not only did I win the bodybuilding competition but I also made a new friend in Colby. I'm not sure when I'll get to see him again in person but it's nice to know that we can talk on the phone whenever we want. I bet everyone else would love him. He's a really sweet kid to hang out with. I look forward to spending more time with Colby in the future" thought Elias as he fell asleep.
