Author's Note: Hi! I just wanted to say a huge thanks to everyone out there who sent me reviews! I really appreciate them! I have had some complaints about the length of the chapters. I'm really sorry for making the chapters so short, I will try to make them longer. Also, something weird happened to chapter 6 and the end got cut off. I will start off where chapter 6 left off so you won't get confused. This is the last chapter of this story. I'll be publishing a different story soon called Plankton's Plot.
Chapter 7
"…I think his brain would malfunction." All of a sudden, as if on cue, Patrick showed up. (This is where chapter 6 was supposed to end)
"Hey, Spongebob, want to come out and play?" asked Patrick.
"Oh no," Spongebob said to himself. "It's Patrick! Gary, what should I tell him?"
"Meow," said Gary.
"Spongebob!" Patrick called up to the pineapple.
"I'll have to go down there and tell him," the sponge decided.
"Spongebob, Spongebob, Spongebob, Spongebob," Patrick repeatedly called. Spongebob walked out of his house and stood next to Patrick. "Spongebob, Spongebob, Spongebob," Patrick kept calling even though Spongebob was standing right beside him. Patrick continued calling until Spongebob tapped him on the shoulder. "Spongebob, Sponge…O! There you are," said the sea star.
"Patrick, I have something very important to tell you," said Spongebob.
"WAIT!" said Patrick. "I came over here to ask if you wanted to go to Goofy Goobers with me to get some ice cream!" All of a sudden Spongebob felt like his worst dream was coming true. It was hard enough for him to tell Patrick, but to actually go back to the restaurant and sit there and see the imposture dancing on the stage?
"Come on!" said Patrick. It'll be fun! We'll get to sing the Goofy Goober theme song!"
"Patrick, I…" but before Spongebob could finish his sentence Patrick was dragging him off to the restaurant.
Spongebob was standing in front of the restaurant. What will happen when he goes inside? All of a sudden, a new terrible thought came to his head. He was an employee there! He would probably be expected to work when he got in! Was he fired? After all he put up a pretty good tantrum at finding out the truth about Goofy Goober. What if they kicked him out? Would Patrick find out about Goofy Goober the same way he did? All of these worries made Spongebob dizzy and lost in thought until Patrick pulled him inside.
"Come on, Spongebob!" said Patrick." Won't this be fun?
"Uh...wee." Spongebob said worriedly.
When Spongebob and Patrick stepped inside, the head waiter noticed Spongebob immediately.
"Hey, Squarepants!" the waiter called to Spongebob. "What is wrong with you? Fred was just changing into the peanut suit and then you went haywire!"
"Well…it…uh…it's just that…" stuttered Spongebob.
"Hey, everyone!" called the waiter. "Squarepants cried because he saw Fred changing into the peanut suit!" The waiter suddenly burst out into hysterical laughter, followed by the rest of the restaurant. Even Patrick joined in (even though he had no idea what or who they were laughing at). Spongebob began to cry. All of a sudden, the real Goofy Goober hopped inside the restaurant.
"Hey there, Goofy Goobers!" the peanut shouted. "Thanks to modern medicine, I'm all better now!"
"Finally!" sighed Fred. "I couldn't squeeze into this dumb peanut suit." Fred was holding the peanut suit Spongebob saw him putting on earlier.
Spongebob was very confused.
"Wait a minute!" He said. "Is this Goofy Goober, (he pointed to the peanut that just entered) the REAL Goofy Goober?"
"Of course," said the head waiter. "He was sick, so Fred was going to fill in for him."
"So Goofy Goober is real!" said Spongebob hopefully.
"DUH!" replied the waiter.
"YAY!" shouted Spongebob.
In finding out that his discovery was a fake one, Spongebob celebrated with ice cream. The day after that, the Krusty Krab re-opened. Spongebob returned to his normal work and Fred went on a diet.
THE END
