END OF CHAPTER 2:

"What are you doing here?" Squidward asked Spongebob as they ran into each other.

"Squidward! You're here!" Spongebob exclaimed as he gave Squidward a "Welcome Back" hug.

"Yeah… What do you want?" Squidward said as he yanked Spongebob off of him because he obviously didn't enjoy the hug.

"I just didn't know where you were. You were in your house once, and then you were gone! I thought something bad happened to you! I never thought that you would have arrived early for work!" stated Spongebob.

"I didn't come early for work," Squidward said. "I just had to make a" Squidward hesitated, "a stop somewhere." Just then, Squidward dashed quickly out of the bathroom.

CHAPTER 3:

Spongebob was kind of suspicious of Squidward, but he just let it go because he knew that if Squidward was up to something, it would be something good.

Spongebob left the bathroom to find Squidward at his usual station at the cash register. Mr. Krabs wasn't in sight, so Spongebob figured that he was in his office counting his money (again). He saw a customer come in, so Spongebob went to the kitchen ready to make whatever the customer wanted.

Soon, Squidward yelled back, "One Krabby Patty – no onions."

Spongebob noticed that Squidward seemed to be a little happier than he used to be. It's probably just the good weather, Spongebob thought as he put a patty on the grill.

The day went pass fast for Spongebob since he enjoyed his work so much. "See you tomorrow, Mr. Krabs!" shouted Spongebob as he walked out the door.

"Have a nice evening, me boy!" replied Mr. Krabs.

Spongebob had a great walk home (as he usually does). Once he got back to his house, he had an urge to go jellyfishing. So, he walked right over to Patrick's house to ask Patrick to come with him.

"Patrick, do you want to go jellyfishing?" Spongebob shouted at the rock.

Very soon, the rock shot open and Patrick replied, "Sure! Let's go ask Squidward if he wants to come with us."

Patrick and Spongebob walked over to Squidward's house and knocked on the door. There was no answer. Again they knocked. Still no answer. (A/N: Does this sound familiar?) So they went inside.

They looked around the house, but there was no Squidward. "Squidward is always here when I get home because I usually stay after for a little bit and help Mr. Krabs clean uo the place," Spongebob stated.

"I wonder where he is?" said Patrick.

"He wasn't here this morning after I said good morning to you. He was there before I talked to you, but then he was gone. And now he's gone again," said Spongebob.

"I think he's up to something…" Patrick said suspiciously.

"Nahhhh, what are you talking about, Pat. Squidward has never done anything bad, and he's not doing anything now. I hope…"

That's it for the third chapter! This week is production week for the musical that I'm in, which mean that I won't be getting home until like 7:15 all this week. And then on Friday night, I have my first performance (AHHHH) at 7:30 and on Saturday, I have another performance at 2:00 (AHHHHH) so that means that I probably won't be able to update until the weekend. But after this week, I don't have any more rehearsals so I'll be able to get home early and update. (yay!) So, I will update this weekend and/or next week. Thanks for reading. And always remember to R&R!

Thanks,

Meredith
