"Victorique!"

"Yes young reaper?"

"For the last time, stop calling me that!"

"Reaper."

"Grr!"

"What do you want Kujo?"

"I brought you this."

Kujo gave her a blue bag.

"What is it?"

"Open it up."

Victorique pulled out a lollipop. Her eyes lit up. She quickly took off the raper and put the cherry lollipop in her mouth.

"You're welcome."

"So what do you really want?"

"What makes you think I-"

"Kujo!"

"Fine! I wanted to ask you if you'd come on vacation with Avril and me."

"I will go nowhere with that farting newt!"

"Well then I'm leaving you for the summer."

"Who said I didn't have plans?"

"Well do you?"

"Yes! Yes I do!"

"Oh."

"Ya!"

"Well, will you go with us for a week and then we'll take you back here?"

"Depends."

"On what?"

"Where are you going?"

"To the beach."

"I'll think about it."

"I need to know now."

"... Fine"

"Great! I'll go tell Avril."

"I guess I'll go to the flower field next week."

When Kujo left, Victorique went in the elevator. When she got down she walked to her house. There must've been a billion stars spread across the night's sky. Each one lit the way and guided her home. When she got to her house, she put on her kimono that Kujo got her and went to bed.

...

Ding-Dong

Victorique awoke to the sound of her door bell.

"Victorique! I know you're here! Open the door!"

Victorique opened the door to see Avril and Kujo standing outside her door.

"Well, if it isn't the farting newt."

"Victorique!"

"Be quiet Kujo! You two came to my house!"

"That doesn't mean you can just-"

"Kujo! She's right. Anyway, we just wanted to tell you that we'll be leaving in one hour."

"Well I'll go get ready then. Farting newt!

Victorique went inside and slammed the door.

"So Avril, I'm really looking forward to our trip to the beach."

Avril smiled.

"Me too. But I have a question to ask you."

They walked over to a bush so Avril could tell him something privately.

"What is it Avril?"

"Do you.. like Victorique?"

"In what way?"

"Love."

"NO! I DO NOT LOVE VICTORIQUE!"

"Shh! Keep your voice down!"

"Why would you ask that?"

"Because you left me last summer for her and you spend all your time with her!"

"It was your idea to invite her to come to the beach with us."

"Yes! That's only so I could figure out a way to make her not hate me. Or hate me less."

"I told you, she's my friend! Why do you care anyway?"

"Because I..."

Avril put her arms around Kujo's waist.

"Avril, do you..."

"Yes I..."

Kujo pulled her closer to her.

"Love..."

Avril kissed Kujo. If you asked Kujo what it felt like, he would've said it felt like kissing a goddess.

"How about going to the movies sometime, Avril?"
