I should've put this up with chapter one, but being the silly bitch that I am, I forgot. So, here's the…… disclaimer (just in case!): I don't own Parappa The Rapper or Um Jammer Lammy. If I did, I'd be RICH by creating one of the world's best games! (Smiles at thought of owning them) Ahem…… anyways, on with the fic! (By the way, sorry for leaving it so late…… I'm such a lazy person!)
Chapter 3: Tension's Rising
Lammy slowly opened her eyes to find herself on her couch, with the sunlight pouring in through the window. She must have slept whilst in deep thought about a certain rapping dog the night before. She slowly sat up on the couch, stretching her arms whilst letting out a huge yawn, then smirked as she heard loud snoring from her father in her parents bedroom. She looked at her green watch (which said 12:16) and decided to get ready for rehearsal, so she got up to get changed into some fresh clothes (Which is the exact same outfit she always wears! Man, the characters must have an unlimited supply of the same clothing..….) and to make herself some pancakes for breakfast. She wasn't really concentrating on what she was doing as she was busy thinking of other things, and ended up putting the whole syrup jar on her pancakes. She cursed when she realised her mistake, but then sighs deeply as she stares out the window, watching the clouds go by in the sky.
' Man…… so this is what love feels like.' She thinks to herself as she throws her plate of syrup away ' Or, at least I think it's love. It certainly would explain a lot. But, why do I feel this way about someone I know I can't have? Parappa is still getting over Sunny, and I know he only likes me as a friend……' she grabs some money off the side so she could grab a burger for her breakfast so she wouldn't be hungry during rehearsal ' Sunny must've been mad to dump him. He's cool, polite, friendly, cute……' she sighs happily at the last thought of her dog friend, but soon changed to sadness as she truly thought it could never happen.
' Him and Sunny will make up, for sure. Me and Parappa are just not meant to be……' she writes a notice explaining to her parents where she's gone, then grabs her guitar and walks out of the apartment.
Sometime later, Lammy reaches Beard Burger and orders herself a Bacon Breakfast Burger with an Orange Juice. She goes to sit down by an empty table, when she looks over to see Katy…… and Sunny Funny. Lammy couldn't help but feel a little ticked off at the sunflower girl for making Parappa feel so low, but she still walked over to sit with Katy.
"Hey Lam!" Katy said with a smile when she saw her friend sit with them.
"Hello Lammy." Sunny says whilst sipping on her Orange Juice. Lammy simply gives a small smile and sits down in the empty space beside Katy, mindlessly munching on her burger. Katy ears droop a bit when she senses something is wrong with her friend, and looks over at Sunny as if to say ' She's feeling really down.' Sunny nods in agreement and decides to help her friend.
"Lammy, what's wrong?" Sunny asks, leaning over to hear what the lamb's problems are. Lammy just mumbles something through her eating, which was barely audible to Sunny and Katy. Something tells her she shouldn't mention her feelings for Parappa in front of Sunny, but on the other hand, she dumped him, so it's kind of clear that she doesn't feel that way about him. So, she decides to tell her friends her problems.
" I…… I-I think I'm in love." Lammy stutters quietly. Sunny and Katy's eyes widened in shock when they heard her. Wow, they didn't expect THAT was the problem.
"You-you're in love?" Sunny asks in disbelief. Lammy just nods slowly, not really being able say anything right now. Katy wasn't really sure she heard her friend properly, as this was Lammy, and the Lammy she knows is way too nervous and shy to feel this way about any guy.
" Are you sure that you just don't 'like' him like him? Because sometimes when people feel they're in love, they really only just 'like' them like them." Katy says in a concerned tone, obviously worried about the well being of her best friend. Lammy shakes her head, lifting up her breakfast to eat a little bit more.
"N-no. This feels a lot stronger than a crush. I'm pretty sure it's love. But…… I know he only likes me as a friend……" Lammy whispers behind her burger, taking a big bite out of it. Katy then smiles, happy that her friend finally knows what it's like to love someone, but then another thought crosses her mind, which scares her a little bit.
' Oh God! It's not Parappa, is it?!?' she thinks to herself in a panic, remembering how her and Ma-san teased Lammy about Parappa yesterday, and how she's starting to act a little more shy and blush a little more around him. Lammy sighs as she looks into her empty Orange Juice cup.
"Damn, it's all gone……" she murmurs to herself.
"Hey, I'll get you another one." Sunny says with a smile as she gets up off her chair. Lammy smiles, as if to say 'thanks', them turns back to look at Katy, who's actually looking a bit pale.
"You feeling OK?" Lammy asks her. Katy nods quickly and leans closer to Lammy.
"Lammy, you're not in love with…… Parappa, are you?" she whispers very quietly so the sunflower girl cannot hear her. Lammy blushes immediately at this question, but she decides to let her best friend know and simply nods. Katy's ears droop instantly at the lamb's reply.
" Then what the hell you telling Sunny for?!? She's not exactly gonna be thrilled, is she?" the cat hisses.
"Well, she DID dump him you know, so she can't exactly feel that way about him if she did that, can she?"
Lammy says whilst she still stares into the empty cup.
"Yeah, but she might be a bit jealous, you know? She only broke up with him a few days ago……" Katy warned, who took a small bite out of her chicken burger. Lammy's ears suddenly drop as she now begins to realise that Katy could be right about Sunny being jealous. She sighs loudly and crushes the empty cup in her hand.
" B-but, I'm already half way through telling her that I'm in love with someone……won't she wanna know who it is?" Katy thinks for a second, not noticing Sunny coming over to the table with three drinks on a tray……
" Then make someone up! Now ain't the time to blab to Sunny that you are in love with her ex-boyfriend Lammy!" Katy said loud enough for Sunny to hear. Sunny's eyes widened at what Katy said, and she almost dropped the tray of drinks.
"E-e-excuse me?" she stuttered as she approached the table. Katy sweat dropped and turned to see a rather shocked looking Sunny, making her feel rather frightened. Lammy looked at Katy angrily as if to say 'You and your big mouth!' and then shot a worried glance at Sunny as if she was going to apologise a million times.
" S-Sunny…… I was going to tell you it was Parappa, I really was! I'm so…… so sorry!" she blurted quickly, and she got up and turned around, getting ready to run out of the restaurant as fast she possibly could. Katy stopped her by gripping her arm tightly, in an attempt to make her panicked friend calm down. Although Lammy put up a slight struggle, she eventually calmed down and sat back down in her seat, resting her head on her paws. Sunny still hadn't said a word, making this situation a tad more awkward.
" Look Sunny…… I……" Lammy started before she trailed off into silence, looking at Katy for help.
" Sunny, Lammy's not doing this to hurt you, you know? She must genuinely feel this way for her to say stuff about it." Katy said reassuringly, although she didn't really know what to say, as she only just found out about this too. Lammy looked up to see Sunny had now replaced her look of shock with a look of sadness.
" Look Sunny, in case this makes you feel better, I'm never going to act on this Parappa thing, OK? I know he still loves you and I think you should……" she suddenly paused to think about what she was going to say next, but she said it anyway……
"I think…… you guys should get back together." She whispered. Sunny then looks down at Lammy and she suddenly gives her an icy cold stare through narrowed eyes, making the lamb feel very uneasy.
" How dare you feel this way about Parappa! I only broke up with him a few days ago and here you are, finally about to make a move on him! I really thought you were my friend Lammy!" she screamed into the lamb's face, scaring the wits out of her as she slumped down into her chair. Sunny turns her back towards Lammy, whilst angrily taping her foot on the floor. You could hear the sunflower girl huffing, but other than that there was pure silence, as everyone in the restaurant had turned around to watch the event. Katy suddenly says something to help back up her frightened friend.
" Sunny, you're acting as if you two are still together! YOU broke up with him!" Sunny doesn't turn around, but Katy could sense the cold stare in her eyes.
" That was only a few days ago! She only waits a few days after the break up until she blabs how she (does Doctor Evil 'Laser' hand thingy on next word. You know what I mean…..^_^ )'genuinely' feels about my ex-boyfriend! Huh! I think she's just a little desperate to get a boyfriend so she moves in on a single guy the second he becomes available!" she hisses cruelly. Katy's ears instantly droop when she heard that insult to her friend, and sits back, unable to do anything to calm down the fuming Sunny Funny. Lammy just sits there and says nothing, but her eyes are slowly filling with tears as she listens to the flower girl beat her senseless with cruel words. Sunny then turns around to face Katy Kat, who is lost for words at this point.
"And you! Saying to make someone up to cover up that bitch's words! We've been friends for years Katy, and you were the one person who I thought I could truly trust!" she yelled. Then, Katy finally snaps, and shot up out of her seat and stared at Sunny straight in the face.
" Because I had a suspicion that you'd react like this, even though YOU were the one to end the relationship! I remember you acting like this when a girl said she loved your other ex Brett (Made him up, he was a dog too!) for a long period of time before he went out with you, and then you dumped him and he went out with her! And what Lammy feels IS genuine, as I remember before you two started dating, she told me she had a slight crush on Parappa, but deep down she knew his heart belonged to you. So don't you even THINK about her saying that just to hurt you or that she's desperate for a boyfriend, because she has real feelings, unlike the cold, icy veined witch that YOU are!" she yelled in her face. Sunny's eyes widened at the last part of Katy speech, then she simply said 'hmph!' and stomped out the door, leaving the angry Katy and upset Lammy to ponder in their thoughts back in the restaurant. There was a long silence before Katy huffed loudly and saw everyone was still staring at their table.
" What are YOU all staring at?!?" she snapped, making everyone go back to what they were doing. She suddenly looked at Lammy, who now had a tear streaked face. Katy anger quickly vanished as she helped Lammy up and they walked out of Beard Burger to their studio for a proper talk. They didn't notice Sunny sneering at them from around the corner, her fists balled up in fury.
' You could be right about Parappa still being in love with me Lammy……' Sunny thought as she watched her two former friends walk down the street ' That's why I'm going to go back with him, just to see you feel sad and wretched!' she smirked at her last thought, and headed on down to Parappa's house, not noticing the dark figure behind her in the alley she was standing near……
" So, she wants to get Lammy too…… I think I could use someone like her……" the figure cackled before looking on in the direction Lammy went in with a look of pure hatred on their face.
" Just you wait, Lammy…… just you wait……
I'm working on the next chapter right now! Will Parappa tell Sunny he loves Lammy? How far will Sunny go to see Lammy pay? Who is the dark figure? Find out in the next chapter!
