"Hello Enzo!" Scrappy said as she plops down on her bed beside him

"What do you want now?" Enzo replied with a mean expression, "Another pizza?

"Stop, I'm being real with you" Scrappy said
"Do you ever feel love, or is that a temporary thing?"

"Are you tryna ask me out again cause you know my answer" Enzo sighed as he turned his head

"Man.. one day you're gonna like me. I know it!" Scrappy murmured

Enzo began to sigh and look back at her "Well I don't and never will like you. But wanna know who does?"

"Who..? Scrappy questioned Enzo's incomplete statement

"You seriously don't know it's so obvious.." Enzo said

"Well.. no, I mean everyone likes me as a friend, everyone's a friend to me besides Oakley and Maylani" Scrappy replied

"And Maylani..? What did Maylani do to you?" Enzo asked seriously

"Nothing. Now complete what you said." Scrappy asked

"Obviously, Peachez. You haven't seen the signs??" Enzo asked

"Peachez...? Peachez is my friend, Enzo nice joke" Scrappy laughed

"I ain't joking you find out for yourself" Enzo said "Its literally right in-front of ya"

" Lies! Obviously Peachez doesn't love me... she likes me as a friend" Scrappy said "Even if she liked me like.. THAT she'd know I'm a girl"

Sigh.

"Scrappy, sometimes the heart sees what eyes can't." Enzo said "You've been constantly ignoring Peachez's hints"

"But I know when everything is happening this can't be true" Scrappy insisted "You just want me GONE."

Enzo sighed deeply, realizing that further persuasion would only lead to more frustration. "Alright, Scrappy. If you're not ready to see it, then I can't force you to."

"Hey kiddos what's going on here?" Nife asked as he walked to them

"Enzo is giving me a wrong love lesson." Scrappy said slightly frustrated "He thinks Peachez likes me!"

"Oh.." Nife muttered as he posed for a sit "Well I've noticed a thing or two..."

"You think she likes me TOO?" Scrappy asked

"Well em.. no that's not what I'm trying to say" Nife defended cleaning his fur "Just saying.. I know things."

"Scrappy just talk to her yourself, if you believe that she doesn't ." Enzo said laying back down

"Well okay if you say so. But Enzo you're being real nice what happened?" Scrappy asked suspiciously

"Whaaat? I am not" Enzo said

"You are!! Nife I'm right am I?" Scrappy said looking toward Nife

"I mean he's way calmer than usual" Nife added
