She saw Ziggy standing there.
"Z-Ziggy" She stuttered. "W-what are you doing here?"
"I decided I didn't want the band scholarship" Ziggy replied. "That's the reason I moved. But I moved back
for- be- because I realized I'm in love with you, Strawberry" he kissed her.
Toaster was crushed.
"I'll, uh, talk to you later" he said, as he started to stand up.
"No, sit" Strawberry pulled him down. "Ziggy, I used to like you. A lot. But you hurt me. You hurt me more
than I liked you. I'm sorry, but I met another guy"
"Oh, ok..." Ziggy looked bummed. "Who? Do I know him?"
"Well , he's listening to our conversation right now.." Strawberry looked over at Toaster, smiled, and grabbed
his hand.
"Sorry, Ziggy, I really am"
"No, I'm the one who should be sorry" Ziggy said. "And I am. Incredibly"
"You should take the band scholarship" Strawberry said. "You're really good, and I know how much you enjoy
it"
"Thanks" Ziggy half smiled. "Friends?"
"You bet" Strawberry smiled, and Ziggy walked away.
"So" Toaster said. "You're interested in me, huh?"
"Maybe just a little bit" Strawberry smiled, as Toaster kissed her.
"Okay, a lot, I lied" Strawberry smiled again.
"I have such a cute girlfriend" Toaster smiled back.
"Oh, so I'm your girlfriend now, huh?" Strawberry grinned.
"Do you wanna be?"
"Hmm.. I dunno..." Strawberry teased Toaster, who looked a little worried.
"I'm kidding" Strawberry said. "Of course I'd love to be your girlfriend"
"I'm not gonna be like those other guys you told me about" Toaster said. "I promise. I'm not gonna cheat
on you like Strudel, stop talking to you like Muffins, be an ass like Spanky, turn gay like Frosty, dump you like Chester,
use you like Texas, leave you like Ziggy, break up with you for no reason like Buster, or go to the air force like Popcorn.
Am I forgetting anyone?"
"I don't know, probably" Strawberry laughed. "I can't keep track of all of them myself!"
"You're so pretty" Toaster smiled. "I like you. A lot"
"And I like you, too" Strawberry said. "Let's go back and dance"
