CRUSHES THAT BURN!
Stephanie smiled as she looked skyward and saw a tall blue suited man climbing down the white ladder. With speed like the wind and swift movements like the falcon, Sportacus decended down to her. As Stephanie shaded her eyes to watch a small tingle started to appear in her stomach.. "Oh my" Stephanie gasped as she quickly tried to take a breath. Just as Stephanie tried to take a deep breath Sportacus jumped beside her. "Stephanie are you ok?" asked Sportacus as he looked into her eyes. All she could do was stare back into his Icelandic Blue eyes.. What was so different than other days she thought to herself.. Finally she was able to take a breath.. "Im okay" she said as she realized her stomach felt like small fireworks exploding on a hot fourth of July night.
Quickly she tried to hide the blush that rose on her cheeks. "Whats in the knacksack? she asked trying to peek over his shoulder. Sportacus just raised one eyebrow and laughed.. "Not til later, young lady" Sportacus said as he and Stephanie walked towards the park.
As they were walking and talking they came upon Pixel and Ziggy trying to pry the balloons out of Stingy's hand. "Stingy.. let go! " Pixel yelled as he fell at Stephanies feet with a handfull of red,white and blue balloons. Now it was Pixels turn to blush and feel the tingle of fireworks.. so much that his hard drive crashed. As he laid there looking up at Stephanie and trying to regain his dignity.. Two strong arms of Sportacus helped him up. "Pixel are you okay? Pixel?" Sportacus just shook his head as he watched Pixel trying to compose himself. From the look on Pixels face, Sportacus knew that someone might get their feelings hurt tonight or not he thought. Stephanie patted Pixel on the arm and said if "your okay, Sportacus and I will be heading to the park to see if we can help with anything over there." Pixel looked at Stephanie and noticed she was looking at Sportacus. Pixel suddenly felt a little angry and a little hurt that Stephanie would choose Sportacus over him. As Ziggy and Stingy watched Stephanie and Sportacus walk down the sidewalk they heard Pixel mumble to himself. I will show Stephanie that Im better than Sportacus. Pixel thought that only his two friends heard him. Little did he know that Robbie Rotten was hiding behind the fence listening to every word..
Ohhhh.. Sportapoop has an enemy.. Pixel is jealous. Well what can I do to help my friend here. Robbie thought to himself as he half ran half walked to his cold dark dingy home. The more Robbie thought about Pixel and what he said the more he felt like celebrating. I think I can get back at Sportapoop for making me eat that apple. Yuck.. Robbie thought as he pulled another piece of apple peel from his teeth. As he pulled the rotten apple peel from his teeth he noticed a disguise that would be perfect for this holiday. Uncle Sam.. tall, white haired and beard.. No one would ever recognize me as Uncle Sam.. thought Robbie as he gleefully danced to his platform. Hitting the buttons and spinning around so fast he fell off the platform and hit his head. "I meant to do that" Robbie said to himself as he brushed off his blue tailed coat.. " Now for my red,white and blue hat".. As Robbie looked into the cracked mirror he saw his reflection. "What a great disguise!"...
