CHAPTER 3
Maxwell had become something if a celebrity amongst the Scribblenaut community, and it was just starting to leak outside of that frame. So far, he'd been able to come up with an excuse for changing the channel before he came on the news. Unfortunately, he knew he couldn't keep it a secret for much longer.
"Mom?"
"Yes, honey?" "I need to tell you something. I'm… I'm a Scribblenaut."
"And?"
Max was shocked. How could they already know? "But… But…"
"We found ink on your bedroom floor. Pools of it."
Max kicked himself for not thinking of that. "…Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
Max's mom walked over to him and messed with his hair in a way only mothers can. "Because you're so cute when you try to hide something."
Max was shocked. "Because it… was… CUTE?!"
His mom smiled. "You'll get it when you have kids."
"Whatever." Max muttered as he pulled the Notebook from his bag. "I'm going to school." "Bye!"
