Disclaimer: Cadence: me, Camp Lazlo: Joe Murray? Get it? Good.
A/N: Thank for the advice on the "I" word. Sorry but all the episodes I watch that included Edward I always hear him say that. I'll try to find more creative words.
So, the deal was made and it's been 2 weeks since Edward or Cadence pranked anybody. Edward was getting worried. Cadence was depressed. He tried everything like asking her to teach him archery or just going for a swim in the lake but nothing. I hope it's just that thing girls get. He walked to his cabin to check on her. When he looked inside he saw Cadence on her bed sitting with her legs crossed. She wore a floral baby doll dress over her uniform and she clutched a teddy bear in her arms. Her eyes were puffy from crying.
"Cadence?" He said in almost a whisper. She looked at him.
"Hey Edward." She said. He sat on the edge of her bed.
"Whose dress is that?"
"It was my mother's. I remember seeing her wear it when I was little. And this is Jackie. I got him for my 5th birthday from her." She said pulling it closer to her. Tears came from her eyes. Edward went closer to her and gave her a hug. Cadence buried her head in his shoulder and cried.
"Shh, it's okay. Don't cry. I'm here." He comforted her. She calmed down.
"Thank you Edward. I'll be okay. I'm glad you're here." She said between breaths. Edward lifted her face and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
Meanwhile, Slinkman heard Cadence crying and was walking to her cabin. He heard her stop but still wanted to check on her. He heard a second voice. He peaked through the screen door and saw Edward wrap his arms around Cadence. His mouth dropped when he saw him give her a kiss on the cheek. He ran to tell Scoutmaster Lumpus. He barged into his office and the scared made Lumpus' tower of cards fall.
"What is it Slinkman that it's so important it ruined my tower?"
"Well, sir, you know Cadence right?"
"Yes, we need more people like her."
"Well, looks like she's in a relationship sir."
"What?! There's a rule for relationships in my camp. Who is the lover boy?"
"Edward sir, the platypus."
He sighed. " In all my years of working here. I'll have to let her go."
"But sir, we can't let her go! She never 'caused any problems. Sure, she's in love with one of our scouts but it doesn't make her a threat!" Slinkman said trying to convince him.
"I know Slinkman. That's why I'm calling Commander Hoo-Hah to see what he says." Scoutmaster Lumpus said. Dialing on his phone. Slinkman pleaded him not to in till he heard Hoo-Hah's voice.
"Yes, Commander Hoo-Hah, there's a problem I'm going to need to ask you about..."
