Perhaps you are wondering the story behind the story. Well, My friend
Denise and I have nicknames for each other. My nickname for her is
Pineapple, and her nickname for me is porky. Why? Well wee were trying to
think up nicknames for each other, and I happened to mention to Denise that
I didn't like ham, so she called me Porky for that reason, not because I'm
fat or she likes to be mean, and not because I like pigs. As a matter of
fact my favorite animal is a horse, not pig. Anyways, so she had figured
out her nickname for me but I still had to make one for her. I told her
that the first name I heard I would call her. Just then my Mom called from
the kitchen: "Missy! Come help me plant this pineapple!" Hence the
nickname, Pineapple. Missy is my real name by the way. Or actually it's
Sofia, but Missy is a nickname for Melissa, one of my middle names. Anyhow,
I mentioned one day to Denise that I thought we should write a story about
a pig and pineapple that were best friends. So I did! She didn't help me,
but she loves it all the same. Her favorite character besides Porky and
Pineapple of course, is Douglas. So there you have it..The story behind the
story.

Chapter Two
"Oh dear," said Pineapple standing up. "A blackout."
"Oh no, Oh no!" Cried Porky dropping her cards and running around terrified, in little circles. "It's so dark in here, I can't see where I'm going! What'll we do, what'll we-oof!" She had knocked Pineapple right over. But she was so frightened of the thunder and lightening, combined with the strange shadows; that she didn't notice. And before Pineapple had time to pick herself up off the floor again, Porky had run back around, and trod right on one of poor Pineapple's leaves.
"Ouch!" Cried Pineapple despairingly, just as.click, click, click. The lights came back on.
Porky stopped running around. "The lights are back on!" She cried clapping her hooves together with glee.
"Oh look what you did!" Said Pineapple angrily. "And she held up her limp leaf.
Porky's mouth dropped open. "Oh, Pineapple did I do that to your leaf?"
"Yes you did." Said Pineapple irritably, "and that leaf was one of my favorites too, it was beautifully long and green. And now it's gone."
"I'm sorry Pineapple," said Porky miserably. "I was so scared of the dark that I didn't realize that I'd hurt you."
"Obviously," Pineapple said dryly.
"I'm really sorry," said Porky, her tail drooping.
"It's ok," Pineapple said kindly. "But would you please put a band-aid on it?"
"Ok!" Said Porky, happy again. She ran into the tiny kitchen and got a band- aid out of the cabinet. "Oh dear," she said. She turned to Pineapple who had hopped into the kitchen behind her. "It's a tad large," she said to Pineapple. She held up the bandage. It was so big; it could have easily covered Pineapple's whole body.
Pineapple slapped a leaf over her face and groaned.
Porky's ears drooped. "It's not my fault," she moaned.
Pineapple smiled weakly. "It's ok, Porky, just forget it. Why don't we go pick up the cards?"
Porky nodded, and they went into the living room to pick up the cards.
