A/N: Hi everyone! Just one more day 'til V-Day! I hope that everyone has someone special to celebrate with! Anyways, since I don't have any special announcements, I'll start the chapter. Oh, and this is the last chapter so, when I finish this, I'll go back to "Adventure To Nebular". Alrighty! Let's role the chapter!
Chapter 4: Valentine's Day
It was one more day until Valentine's Day was here. Boss was preparing his sunflower seeds and wrapping them all up in a special way just for Bijou. Stan and Cappy came in with Panda's tool box. "Boss, are you sure you want us to hide this? It sort of sounds mean to just take out his favorite tool, and hide it," Cappy admitted after Stan opened the tool box and rummaged through Panda's things looking for a specific hammer. It was a hammer Panda had gotten for Christmas from Pashmina.
"Found it!" Stan yelled after he spotted the hammer and took it out of the box. Though Panda had at least three different hammers it was easy to tell which one he had gotten from Pashmina. That one had her name carved on it in tiny letters. Panda tried not to use that one too much afraid that if he did, it'd get ruined. But he used it whenever Pashmina was around so that she knew how useful her present to him was.
"Okay Stan. Give me the hammer," Boss instructed. Stan obediently nodded and brought the hammer to Boss. Boss put the hammer in the bag of sunflower seeds and shook it a couple of times, then he took it out and sniffed it, "Hiff-hiff-hiff-hiff, smells like sunflower seeds," Boss told them. Stan and Cappy nodded. "Now we have to hide the sunflower seeds in the other closet, where Panda's tools are, and when everyone wonders where the sunflower seeds are tomorrow, they'll find them in his closet and think that Panda stole all the sunflower seeds and hid them with his stuff!" Boss explained.
"That's an awesome plan dude!" Stan exclaimed excitedly. "what do you think Cap-dude?" Stan said turning to Cappy.
"Well…well," Cappy didn't know how to answer. He knew that what they were doing was wrong, and that Panda was not flirting with Bijou in the first place, but since he had no where else to go, he said, "That's a good plan Boss." He said quietly. Boss and Stan high-fived each other. Then Stan and Cappy went home.
*****
Finally Valentine's Day had come. The fresh smell of love was in the air. Well, actually most of the hams were against each other so it wasn't totally fresh air with love. Sandy and Bijou had worked out their plan and decided that the best place to get Panda and Pashmina together was at the same cherry blossom tree that Sandy and Maxwell had spent their Christmas. It was special and always had the most beautiful cherry blossoms.
"It feels like Christmas was only yesterday, no?" Bijou said looking up at the tree and down at Sandy. Bijou and Pashmina had a good Christmas considering that they placed a mistle toe in one of the branches and Sandy and Maxwell had been under it.
Sandy blushed at the memory, "Yeah, I remember." Then she thought back to the plan, "Okay Bijou, go get Panda and I'll get Pashmina, then we'll meet back here in like ten minutes."
"Ten? Why so much time Sandy?" Bijou asked with questioning eyes.
"Because I like, have to go make sure that Hamtaro remembered our plan." Bijou nodded understanding. Then they both made their way back to the clubhouse.
*****
"Mah Valentine's Day present looks better then yours!" Howdy shouted at Dexter., holding up his Valentine's Day gift for Pashmina which was a brand new pink scarf that glittered.
"Well mine isn't as ugly as your stupid scarf Howdy!" Dexter shot back showing his present to Howdy which was pretty much the exact same thing as Howdy's scarf.
Hamtaro, who was watching everything, just sweat dropped. "Guys!" He yelled trying to make Howdy and Dexter stop arguing, "Both of your presents are nice. I'm sure Pashmina would love them both, he he," He said nervously.
"She can't like both at the same time!" Dexter told him. "Besides, we all know that mine's the best!"
"Is not, four eyes! Mine's the best!" Howdy yelled insulting Dexter.
"For your information mister smarty ham, these aren't real glasses!" Dexter yelled at him. "But that apron you're wearing is pretty real enough to be girly!"
"What?! You take that back!" Howdy threw down his present and attacked Dexter. Hamtaro sweat dropped even more. Then Sandy came through the door. She saw Howdy and Dexter fighting and then looked at Hamtaro.
Sandy slowly walked up to him and whispered, "Hey Hamtaro, remember what you're supposed to do?" Hamtaro nodded.
"Of course I remember, but they just won't stop fighting." Hamtaro explained to Sandy.
"Well, as long as they don't see Panda and Pashmina together then we'll be fine." Sandy said, watching Howdy and Dexter fight.
*****
"Panda, would you like to come to the cherry blossom tree with me and Sandy? Pashmina will be there too," Bijou asked Panda.
"Sure Bijou. That'd be great, but, I don't have a Valentine for Pashmina," He said sadly.
"Zat's okay Panda, just come along with me," Bijou grabbed his arm and started to head out the clubhouse door when she heard Boss…
"Hey! I can't find my sunflower seeds anywhere! Bijou, Panda, could you guys help me look?" Boss asked pleadingly to the two. He almost got mad when he saw Bijou holding Panda's arm, but he tried to keep quiet.
Bijou, feeling sorry for Boss, decided to help, "Of course we will help you look Boss," She knew just how important the sunflower seeds were to him. She let go of Panda's arm and started searching. Panda, a little confused, decided to help out too. He went over to his closet and right when he was about to open the door 'she' came.
"Hamha Panda," said Pashmina cheerfully to him. She didn't seem to be holding any type of present with her. Panda looked up at her.
"Ham-ham-ha, Pashmina,' He stammered blushing. Pashmina giggled a little.
"Are you helping Boss look for his sunflower seeds?" Panda nodded. "Me too. Those seeds were so special to Boss," said Pashmina. They both smiled at each other, then Panda opened his closet door, and was immediately surprised at was inside his closet. Pashmina gasped.
"Panda?! You…you…you stole his seeds?!" She exclaimed very surprised.
"No! I don't know how they got in there!" Panda exclaimed surprised too. Boss overheard them and smiled to himself, "the plan's working just fine" he thought. Boss, with Stan and Cappy, went over to Panda and Pashmina.
"Panda! How could you?!" He said sounding very convincing. Stan and Cappy both glared at Panda. "you stole my seeds! You know how important those were to me!" Boss continued.
"But…but…but it wasn't me! I swear it wasn't! Boss, I would never ever steal anything from you or anyone!" Panda yelled. He turned to Pashmina, "You believe me, right Pashmina? You don't honestly think that I would steal anything, do you?" He tried to make eye contact with her. At this point, everyone in the clubhouse was watching. Including Howdy and Dexter who stopped fighting.
Pashmina looked up at Panda, and looked him straight in the eyes. He looked hurt and he definitely didn't look guilty. How could she say no to the ham she loved, and the ham she knew that was very innocent. Panda was not capable of doing something like this in the first place. She thought for a while then finally answered, "Of course I believe you Panda. Why wouldn't I?" Panda smiled.
"It could've been anyone else!" Boss said, "The seeds were in his closet, therefore he stole them! I say we kick him out of the clubhouse!" Everyone just stared at Boss, even Cappy and Stan, who were not about to listen to him anymore. "Uh…well, you don't want him to steal anything else, do you?"
"Boss, if Panda said he didn't do it then we should believe him!" Pashmina said defending Panda. Panda smiled more.
"Yeah! What Pashmina said!" Howdy and Dexter both said at the same time, siding with Pashmina. Sandy, Bijou and Penelope, being Pashmina's best friends, also sided with her and Panda. Then Maxwell, Hamtaro, and Oxnard. Stan and Cappy grinned at each other, then sided along with Panda.
"Cappy?! Stan?! You guys are supposed to be on my side!" Boss yelled at them, "Remember our plan?"
"Yeah!" Stan started, "Your plan to kick Panda out of the clubhouse! I think it just backfired dude! Listen hams," Stan looked at the hams, "Boss was jealous of Panda and wanted to kick him out of the clubhouse, so he hid his seeds in Panda's closet to make it seem like he stole them.' Stan explained. Boss blushed furiously.
"Jealous? Why would he be jealous of me?" Panda asked, pointing at himself.
"Well, he-" Cappy punched Stan lightly, "I mean, 'we', thought that you were flirting with Bijou."
"Flirting with Bijou?!" Panda exclaimed, "I would never flirt with her Boss! She was just helping me with something. That's all! We're just friends."
"You should be ashamed of yourself Boss! Zinking zat Panda would flirt with me and zen you go and try to kick him out! Zat is so rude!" Bijou told Boss angrily.
"I'm sorry Bijou," Boss said not making eye contact with anyone.
"Do not apologize to me! Apologize to Panda," She said to him again. She stepped out of the way and let Panda through.
"I'm sorry Panda. I'm sorry to the rest of you hams too," Boss said apologetically. "I didn't mean to ruin your Valentine's Day. Maybe it would be best if I left the clubhouse." Boss started to make his way towards the door.
"Boss wait!" Hamtaro yelled to him. Boss turned around, "We're not mad at you! We forgive you! Right hams?" All the ham-hams nodded, "Everyone makes mistakes Boss, not just you. We want you to stay."
"Yeah Boss. We do," Panda said. He didn't even sound mad at Boss for one second.
"Well, okay," Boss said. Everyone cheered, "I'll stay. And I'll try not to kick anyone else out of the clubhouse. Everyone cheered again. Boss smiled widely.
*****
Panda went to the cherry blossom tree that afternoon. He sat there thinking about his day. He sighed, stil thinking about what to give Pashmina. "Hey Panda." Said a very familiar voice.
"Hey Pashmina," Panda said to her. She took a seat next to him and smiled.
"Um…there's something I want to talk to you about. It's not about today, it's something I've been wanting to tell you for a long time," Pashmina said blushing.
Panda totally forgot about the day and looked into Pashmina's eyes, "Well, there's something I want to tell you too."
"You go first," Said Pashmina. She looked back into his eyes too.
"Okay. Listen Pashmina, I-" Panda was immediately cut off when he felt Pashmina bring her lips to his. He completely surprised, but he kissed back anyways. It was definitely true love's first kiss. Pashmina slowly moved her paws down and held Panda's paws. He squeezed hers. They soon broke away from the kiss, and Panda blushed furiously. Pashmina smiled warmly at him. Panda continued saying what he didn't finish before, "I love you Pashmina."
"I love you too Panda," She said softly. With that, Panda put his paws around her, and they kissed again, but more passionately. Sandy, Bijou, and Penelope smiled at each other from the top of a tree branch. "Happy Valentine's Day." Sandy and Bijou said together quietly.
