Sorry I haven't written for such a long time! I've been sidetracked. But here's the next chapter:
Chapter 17: "You Love Him!"
Bijou and Stan walked back to Hamtaro and Pashmina. Stan noticed that something – or someone – was rustling in the bushes.
"Who's there?" Stan asked. Suddenly, Boss popped up. Of-course, Hamtaro was already sick of Boss.
"Not again, Boss!" Hamtaro said, sighing.
"Boss? What are you doing here?" Stan asked.
"Nothing. Just browsing around." Boss replied lying of-course. Cappy smiled and nodded. Stan's eyebrows rose when he found out that Boss was spying on Bijou.
"What?" Cappy asked in response to Stan's look.
"Nothing." Stan said simply.
"Come on, Stan. Let's go." Pashmina said, tugging on his arm.
"Yeah, okay. See you guys later." Stan said as he and Pashmina walked away.
"We should go to. Actually, it's getting late. We could go on a few more rides. Then, we have to gather everyone to head back to the hotel." Hamtaro said.
"Okay. See you later!" Bijou said as she and Hamtaro walked away. Before Hamtaro turned around, Boss gave him a look that said 'you better not'.
Everyone went on a few more rides, then gathered up and went back to the hotel. On the ride home, Hamtaro, Bijou, Boss, and Cappy were in one taxi.
"So how was your day, Bijou?" Boss asked, blushing a bit.
"It was good. Hamtaro and I had so much fun!" Bijou said, happily. Boss gave Hamtaro a mad look.
"That's great." Boss replied.
"Yeah, it was fun. But Boss, you appeared so many times. Did you go on any rides at all?" Hamtaro asked.
"We only went on like two rides!" Cappy complained.
"Don't worry. I'm sure Pashmina could take you, Penelope, and Hannah. We have a long trip so we can come back anytime." Bijou said.
"Ooh! Can you ask her for me?" Cappy asked, excitedly. Bijou giggled and nodded. Gee, I can see why Boss likes her. What am I thinking? This is exactly why Boss was watching us! Hamtaro thought.
After a while, they reached the hotel and went back to their rooms. Pashmina, of-course, spread the news about her and Stan.
Bijou was in her room with Pashmina and Penelope. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Bijou got up to get it.
"Hi, Sparkle, Hannah, Pepper. What are you doing here?" Bijou asked.
"We were bored so Pepper, Hannah, and I came to see you girls. Can we come in?" Sparkle asked.
"Yeah, sure." Bijou said, letting the girls in. She helped Sparkle in with her crutches.
Penelope and Hannah went to play with dolls in the bedroom while the others talked in the kitchen.
"So guess what? I think Boss really likes me! It's weird, though. I always thought he liked you, Bijou." Sparkle said.
"No, I think we're all just good friends." Bijou said, trying not reveal Boss' secret.
"Well, he likes me, I'm sure of it! We were paired up in the tunnel of love. Well, I was looking at the waterfall when I fell in. Boss jumped out and helped me up." Sparkle explained.
"Ooh! It probably is love!" Pepper said. Bijou paused for a moment. If Boss likes Sparkle, there was nothing to hide. There were no problems. She could like Hamtaro without making anyone sad.
"I think it's cute. Oh, and did you hear? Stan and I got together!" Pashmina said, showing off her new boyfriend.
"Really? That's so cool!" Pepper squealed.
"So did you kiss?" Sparkle asked, trying to get all the details. Pashmina blushed.
"You did, didn't you!" Sparkle said. Pepper and her started to giggle. Pashmina blushed even more.
"But do you like Boss?" Bijou asked, changing back the subject.
"Uh, well, not really. I have someone else in mind." Sparkle said. Oh no. Poor Boss, Bijou thought. Suddenly, Hannah and Penelope came in.
"Can we go get Sandy? She always has cool ideas when we play dolls!" Hannah said. Penelope nodded.
"Ookwee!" Penelope squealed. Pashmina smiled and got up.
"I'll go with you. I want to talk to her anyway." Pashmina said.
"Good! Let's go!" Hannah said. The three walked to Sandy's room and knocked at the door. Stan answered.
"Hi, Stan!" Pashmina said excitedly. She kissed Stan on the cheek. Hannah gave him a mean look.
"We're here to pick up Sandy!" Hannah said.
"Yeah. Is she here?" Pashmina asked. Stan went to get Sandy.
"Hey, girls! What's up?" Sandy said cheerfully.
"Can you come to Penelope's room with us so we can play?" Hannah asked. Sandy smiled and nodded. They went back to Pashmina's room.
"Come on, Sandy! Come on!" Hannah said, tugging on Sandy's arm.
"Ookwee!"
"Well, I, like, have to talk with the girls, but I promise to play with you later." Sandy said. Hannah frowned.
"Oh, fine. Come on Penelope." Hannah said as the two girls went to play. Sandy and Pashmina went to the kitchen.
"Hi, Sandy!" the girls said in unison.
"Hey, girlfriends! What's up?" Sandy asked.
"Oh, we're having a girl talk. Any news?" Sparkle asked. Sandy shook her head.
"Well, I have news! Guess what, Sandy? I got together with Stan!" Pashmina said excitedly.
"WHAT!?" Sandy asked, yelling.
"Calm down. I know it's surprising, but it's true." Pashmina said.
"I thought he would never get a girl! How did he get you?" Sandy asked.
"I don't know. We just started to spend more time together and it turns out he's great. He's cute, romantic, cool, and just plain great!" Pashmina said. Sandy tried to imagine her annoying brother as all those things.
"Nope. I just don't see it." Sandy said.
"Actually, I spend a lot of time with him, too. He's actually pretty sweet." Bijou said.
"Are you sure we're talking about the same guy?" Sandy asked. The others giggled.
"Well, he was by your side when you broke up with..." Sparkle began. But her voice trailed away. Sandy looked down with sadness.
"I'm sorry, Sandy." Sparkle said. Sandy felt tears forming. Pepper patted her back.
"There, there. It'll be okay." She said.
"I just can't believe he did that." Sandy said in almost a whisper.
"We know. He had no right to." Bijou said, holding Sandy's hand.
"But maybe it was all just a big misunderstanding. Maybe he does love you. Maybe he feels the same way you do." Sparkle suggested.
"Feel? What do you mean?" Sandy asked. The others all had to turn around and chuckle.
"What?" Sandy asked, as the tears went away. They all turned back and smiled at her.
"Don't you know?" Pashmina asked.
"Know what? Are you keeping something from me?" Sandy asked, confused.
"You still love Maxwell!" Six girls shouted. They turned around. Hannah and Penelope were standing there.
"Were listening to all of that?" Bijou asked.
"Yeah, but of-course you love Maxwell! It's SO obvious!" Hannah said.
"Girls, go to Cappy's room. You can play with him." Pashmina said, ordering the girls away.
"Okay, but it's SO obvious, Sandy." Hannah said as she walked away.
"Ookwee!" Penelope said as she shut the door.
"I do not love Maxwell!" Sandy said as she turned back tot the others.
"Yes you do." Pepper said.
"I don't love him. Well, I may have feelings for him, but that doesn't mean I love him. I mean, so what? I have romantic feelings for Maxwell. That doesn't mean I actually love." Sandy said. She kept going on and on about it. She talked so quickly that the others couldn't even understand her. (This part is SO copied and I'm sorry.)
"I mean, just because I have romantic feelings for him doesn't mean that I love him. I don't love him. I mean, I have SOME feelings for him. There is no love what so ever. I mean, I DO love him, but –" Sandy said just as fast. She was about to continue when she realized what she said.
"I-I-I – why didn't you tell me?" Sandy asked, panicked.
"We thought you knew. Everyone else does!" Sparkle said.
"So everyone knows?" Sandy asked.
"Yes! Well, except Maxwell." Bijou replied. Sandy's sad look came back.
"Well now it's too late. He's probably already proposing to that Mara person." Sandy sighed.
"Yeah, right! He probably still loves you, too!" Pepper said.
"You think?" Sandy asked.
"Yeah!" Seven voices yelled.
They turned around. Hannah, Penelope, and Cappy were all there. They had 'duh' expressions on.
"Of-course he still loves you!" Cappy said.
"That's even more obvious!" Hannah said.
"Ookwee!"
"Really?" Sandy asked.
"Kids, go somewhere else. We're having an important talk." Pashmina said. The three kids left and went to Cappy's room.
"What should I do, then?" Sandy asked.
"Go tell him!" Sparkle yelled.
"Yes! Go get him back! I bet he's just waiting for you to come to him." Bijou said. Sandy got up and went to the door.
"Okay, thanks." Sandy said as she left. She ran to Maxwell's room and opened the door.
