I looked back into Pearl's crystal eyes. I knew that this was the best
plan.
"All right! *sigh* fine." I said finally sitting up realising I wasn't
going to get any sympathy.
"Well good. you can pick me up from my hole after elevenses and take me
out.ok??" she said rather than asked.
"S-sure." I replied running my fingers through my leaf- filled hair.
Smiling with a phoney sweetness she turned on her heels and walked fast
back towards the busy town of Hobbiton.
Smiling back at myself I thought about the look on Merry's face when he heard that I was going out with his love. It would hurt so bad. After all these years. I had managed to avenge his irritating existence.
Skipping at the wicked thoughts I made for my hole.

"Pip! Put back the plates will you?? Wash them as well. It's not like you have anything better to do!" jeered Pippin's mother haughtily. "Actually mother. I do have something of great importance to do. I'm going on a date with Pearl!" I said holding my shoulders high as if I were of great significance (which I was!).
CRASH! BANG! CRACK!
Plates fell from both Mrs. Took and Merry's hand. They both stared open mouthed at me as if they had just awoken from a nightmare.
"You're what!?!" Screeched Merry "You heard me. Pearl. you know Pearl don't you??" I said matter- of- factly. "You can't be. you're joking." Merry stammered "oh look mum! Merry's stammering. he must have more confidence in himself. oh and look at the broken plates! What a mess Merry. tsk tsk!" I said mischievously. "Mrs. Took. he knows. he knows I liked her. he's doing this because he doesn't like me." Merry said shakily "You liked pearl?? OH I NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT! You should have told me. oh yes you would have if you were a bit FRIENDLIER!!" I said amused. "He. you. I. you. I HATE YOU!!" Merry said whimpering. With that he turned around and ran through the round door and into the distance. I looked at mum who was still staring open mouthed at me. "What? Why aren't you running after your dear lovely Merry anyway?" I snapped back and walked towards my room. I was happy that Merry was hurt. though mothers look roused a tiny bit of guilt in me. I shrugged it off. What was I to be guilty of anyway?? I didn't do anything wrong..did I??
