The Drummers Girl || Rodrick Heffley x Reader (Fem.)

Fourth of July and New Dog (Movie 3 - Part. 3)

It was the fourth of July, The Warrens from down the road have a massive party which (Name) goes to with the Heffley's each year. Susan walked in with an American flag cake followed by Frank who was carrying Manny who was followed by their grandad

Greg and the two teens walked in behind, Greg looking nervous avoiding Rodrick for the past couple days. Once the adults were out of ear shot Rodrick grabbed ahold of Greg

"Hey, worker bee you know, you having a job doesn't pass the smell test!" He stated pointing to his nose, (Name) standing beside him "yes it does! it totally does" Greg quickly said back before walking off

"No way he does....I mean Gregs like you he doesn't do....anything" (Name) said, Rodrick looked at her slightly offended "I never said it was a bad thing....the bad part is lying to your parents...they'd destroy him if they found out" She nodding looking over to where Greg stood

Rodrick smirked as Mrs Warren walked over giving them drinks "Here you two go" She smiled "thankyou" (Name) smiled "thanks" Rodrick said

"If....They find out" He took a sip of his drink "no Rodrick don't.... remember what he did for you" (Name) took a sip from her drink

"can't keep using that as a defense..." Rodrick pouted "....You and I both know-.." He cut her off "I know....I know...I'll just get something out of it" He smirked again (Name) sighing knowing she wouldn't change her mind

"I'm going to get another drink....want one?" (Name) asked as Rodrick drunk the last of his "No thankyou..." He said his eyes locked on Greg

"Alright..I'll be right back" She went to kiss him on the cheek, expecting it Rodrick turned his head to meet her lips before turning back to watch Greg

She smiled her hand holding his shoulder before dropping it and heading over to find where the drinks were. Rodrick spotted Greg near the cake, he headed over

"you know....I was thinking about what (Name) said....but I think I'll speak to Dad about my suspicions" He said, Greg laughed nervously "you can do whatever you want"

Rodrick picked up the cake "I will" He took a bite of the cake going to walk off, Greg called out quietly causing Rodrick to turn back around "ok ok! I don't really have a job"

"Holly hills is a member, so being at the county club means out I can hang with her" Greg explained as (Name) walked over a new drink in hand "I knew it! told you" Rodrick smiled at (Name)

"I never said you were wrong" She smiled taking a sip of the drink "woah woah! the country club? I want in" Rodrick pointed at Greg "for both of us" He gestured between himself and his girlfriend

"I can't get either of you in there...I go as Rowley's guest" Greg explained "so we can go as your guests" Rodrick shrugged eating the cake "I can get you in" (Name) said

"what...you're a member?" Rodrick looked to (Name) "yeah?" She chuckled "since when!?" He asked excited "my parents are so I am...?" She stated

"can we go!?" Rodrick asked, Greg looked scared knowing his brother would ruin what he had going on "Sure Rodrick, its nice there....but you can't be running up the bill" She pointed at him

He held his hands up in defense "I wont! promise" "(Name)! he'll embarrass me Infront of Holly!" Greg said to the teen girl "I'll make sure he'll stay far away from you when Holly is around....pinky promise" She said

Greg looked between the two, knowing if he didn't go Rodrick would destroy his plans. "fine..." Greg gave in

Later that day, Rodrick was practicing his drum solo. (Name) sat on a chair located in the garage, Her phone run. Rodrick stopped playing as she took the call

"Hey mom" She said "Yeah...Its Rodrick...Yeah I know...ok I will....love you bye" She hung up "What'd she say?" Rodrick asked

"I was asking about the country club, Mom said you can go but no running up the bill" She said again "I wont....promise" He held a hand over his heart

"Are they coming home for your birthday still?" Rodrick asked, (Name) nodded "Yeah...they want to have some big thing, they insist on it" She smiled "that sounds fun! go for it, they aren't working thats a plus" Rodrick pointed his drum stick at her

"yeah....I guess so, Hey even if I said no it wouldn't have mattered they've already began booking everything" She chuckled as they heard Frank call them outside, they walked together into the backyard.

Susan holding manny and Greg walking out after them "Introducing the new member of the Heffley family!" Frank announced carrying a dog

Greg smiled running over to pat the dog "oh....frank I really wish you had checked with me first...I mean this is....I think its more of a family decision" Susan worried

Frank brushes her off, baby talking towards the dog. "we can call him shredder!" Greg smiled "No" Susan replied "muffin? I like that" (Name) suggested, Susan looking a little more enthusiastic

"Muffin?" Rodrick asked skeptical, "ripjaw?" Greg asked "We can call him sweetie!" Manny pointed with a smile "sweetie! thats a great name!" Susan smiled as Gregs face dropped

"I prefer Muffin" Rodrick lent down to whisper in (Names) ear, "yeah yeah" Frank agrees just wanting to keep the dog. Frank threw a ball the dog running after it

~~~~~~~~

The next couple of days sweetie had been following Greg around, early one morning the scratching of dog nails could be heard on the wooden floor

Sweetie jumped up on Rodricks bed, licking at his face. He cringed pushing the dogs face away "how did it get in here?" He asked, (Name) waking up at the feeling of being crushed

"aww leave him alone Rodrick...hes a big baby" She awed as the dog huffed, lying down next to (Name). "you too?" He smiled kissing the side of her head

~~~~~~~~

That afternoon Rodrick had walked into the dining room followed along by (Name). Greg sat at the table eating while Frank played with Sweetie

Frank was trying to get Sweetie to shake as Rodrick walked up passing his father a dog bowel "here you go" He said "(Name) suggested I get something for the dog" He admitted

Frank took the bowel "sweaty?" He read, looking up at the two teens. Rodrick scoffed a laugh "Pretty sure its spelled sweetie dad" He shook his head

"I tried to tell him" (Name) said as Frank looked at her, Frank nodded in understanding while looking back at the bowel. Rodrick shook his head "sweaty" He muttered with a laugh walking off, wrapping his arm around her shoulders
