"Ooo, dang, I mean. It's okay, Spud, just don't."
He puckered his face and cried. It was unattractive and his barely-13 features were wrinkled and wet and shaking.
"My- mamamai hat!" He grabbed his face and pulled.
Jake grimaced. "Sorry about the hat, dude, but, I'm sure you can get another one."
"Get another one?"
Trixie pushed her lips outward. "Jakey, you're in for it now."
"Get another one! Jake, do you not understand the meaning of the word love? Because I loved this hat, you hear, I. Loved. IT." He grasped the charred remainders of his skull shaped hat to his chest.
"Spud, you're just lucky Jake didn't burn your whole head off. AaaguGU."
"I hate being naked. Especially in public." Spud pouted.
Jake rolled his eyes. Not this. Again. "Spud, you are not naked."
"Well it FEELS like it without my hat." Glare, death glare. "Mr. likes-to-burn-hats-a-lot."
"I'm sorry, okay? I can get you a new one." Jake really didn't want to buy him a new one, really.
"Nah, it's okay Jake, I know you didn't mean it." Spud collapsed.
Trixie smiled. "Besides, you can't get him a new hat because I already did."
She pulled her hands forward, even though neither of the boys had noticed they'd been hidden behind her back the entire conversation. She held an identical beanie to the one lost in battle. Spud inspected it closely.
"It's not the same, but. I guess it'll have to do, for now."
Spud forgot about the old hat in a week. Really, he forgot he'd ever lost his hat. They were the same, so no one was the wiser.
I'll let you decide if it's SpudxTrixie or SpudxBeanie.
The AM DRAG and its characters belong to Disney and its creators, mm-hmm.
