Nickel and a Reunion [NICKLOON]

Chapter 13: Finding Out

Nicki's POV:

"Alright. This cul-club meeting is officially in order!" I exclaim. The lights start to dim by my command.

We're in the room where I interrogated Nickel. By we, I mean me, Nicks, Soap, and Tea Kettle. Us four are probably the only ones who knows about Nickel's crush, and that's what this club is about.

"So, today, we're gonna find out if Balloon likes Nickel back." I state. As club leader, I decide what we do today.

Nicks raises a foot. "But they've cuddled before. Doesn't that mean that Balloon likes him back?"

"WAIT, WHAT?" Tea Kettle and Soap exclaim. Right, they didn't know about that.

"Yep. But we always need more evidence. Can anyone think of anything?" I respond, pacing back and forth. 

Our club starts to think. A few moments pass before Soap raises her hand.

"There was this one time they were wearing matching flowers." She said.

"REALLY?" My eyes light up. "Nickel's definitely going soft." 

The others giggle. Alright. I feel like we've got enough evidence... but something's missing. Never mind that.

"Now that we've got enough facts, we've gotta think of a club name."

We go back to thinking. We try different names, but none of them seem to be perfect. Hmm...

Suddenly, the door is pushed open. We scream as we see Fan and Paintbrush. 

"Wha- WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING HERE?" I yell.

"What are YOU guys doing here?" Paintbrush responds.

"We're having our secret club meeting. Which you two aren't in.... so what are you doing here?" I state.

"Ouch." Fan frowns. "Anyways, what club is this?"

Us four members glance at each other. Should we tell them? Do they know? The others shrug at me. I guess it's fine.

"Uhh... well... you gotta promise to keep it a secret." I say hesitantly.

Fan and Paintbrush glance at each other then look back at me, interested. Paintbrush closes the door. 

"We promise." Both of them say. Hmmm... seems genuine.

I sigh in relief. "This club is about Nickel and Balloon." The two raise their eyebrows, a smirk growing on their faces. I think they've guessed what this club is about. "We're trying to help them get together."

Fan almost squeals. "I knew they had a thing for each other! Paintbrush, remember when we saw them snuggling up the other day." He shakes them.

Paintbrush laughs. "Yeah... I gotta admit, it was cute." They reply.

I smile. "Great! More members!" Fan and Paintbrush sit down at the couch. The other members make way for them.

"We were trying to think of a name for this club. Have any ideas?" I ask our new members.

Fan suddenly pulls out a laptop. "Ever since I saw them snuggling, I've been watching them (stalker) and thinking of ship names for them."

We all crowd around him and peer at the names. One catches my eye.

Nickloon.

"That's perfect!" I exclaim.

"Which one?" Fan asks.
