Before Molly, Gil, and Goby could go to homeroom, a voice calls out to them.

"Hey-oh, weirdos!" the voice shouts.

"Could that be?" Goby began to say.

Sure enough, Deema came skipping towards them. She wore a short sleeved orange shirt and a pair of orange shorts that reached just above her knees. Her shorts were covered with yellow polka dots, just like her tailfin used to many years ago. On her feet, she wore a pair of red and white high top sneakers. Her blonde curly hair was still poofy just like it always has been.

"Hey, Deema," Gil greeted.

"Hey, dude. Molls, hey girl!" Deema replies. Molly, Gil, and Deema engage in a group hug. After they release themselves from each other's grasp, Deema turns to Goby.

"Hey, you!" Deema squealed.

Deema wrapped her arms around Goby and gave him a big hug. Goby missed the feeling he felt whenever Deema hugged him, so he wanted to enjoy it as much as he could.

"Did you miss me?" Deema whispered in her boyfriend's ear.

"Of course I did," Goby whispered back.

Several seconds later, Deema felt a tap on her shoulder. Deema stopped hugging Goby for a second and turned around. She discovered it was Oona.

"Oona! Hey, girl!" Deema squealed as she hugged Oona tight.

"Deema, you're...crushing me," Oona strained.

"Oop, sorry," Deema said as she stopped hugging Oona.

Oona wore a purple short sleeved shirt and a matching skirt. Her skirt was so long that it almost completely covered her legs. On her feet, she wore a pair of purple sandals. Oona's pigtails were slightly longer than they used to be, though not much. Gil noticed that Oona was the shortest of the group.

"Damn, you're short," Gil says.

"Gee, thanks," Oona said sarcastically.

"It was a compliment," Gil claims.

"Sure, Gil," Oona says sarcastically.

"Wow, you've sure gotten sarcastic," Deema said in an impressed tone.

"Hey, I've grown up," Oona says while shrugging.

"Ahem, aren't you guys forgetting about me?" a voice called from the distance.

"Hey, that sounds a lot like…" Deema began to say.

Before she could finish, someone strutted up to the group. It was none other than...Nonny.

The rest of the guppies gaped at the sight of Nonny. He had grown taller; the second tallest after Gil. He was still skinny, but he was much less skinny than he was when he was in preschool. His scuba goggle-like glasses were traded in for a pair of light blue glasses that were more rectangular. He was dressed in a light green short sleeved shirt and dark green jeans. He wore a pair of brown loafers on his feet. As Nonny stepped closer, the guppies notice something that shocks them all.

"Hello," Nonny greets.

"Nonny...what is that?" Oona asks, pointing to the corner of Nonny's face.

"What is what?" Nonny wonders.

"That thing on your eyebrow," Deema says. Nonny touches his left eyebrow.

"No, the other eyebrow," Goby says. Nonny touches his right eyebrow.

"Oh, that. It's a piercing," Nonny explains.

"A piercing?!" the rest of the guppies said in shock.

Nonny's piercing was a thin metal rod poking through his eyebrow and two light blue balls at both ends of the rod.

"Didn't that hurt?" Molly asks.

"Psh, yeah. It hurt like hell. But it was over really quick. I personally think piercings are better than tattoos because A, piercings happen really quick while tattoos can take hours and B, if I get tired of it, I can just take it out. But with tattoos, once you have it, that's it. You can't remove it," Nonny says.

"I thought you can get tattoos removed," Gil states.

"Well, technically you can, but it's a lot more expensive, it takes a lot longer, and I've heard it's at least 10 times more painful.
