The next morning Flaky woke up to the delicious smell of breakfast cooking.

"Morning already?" She yawned as she sat up in bed and stretched. She then brushed her long red hair and headed downstairs.

"Morning gorgeous" Smirked Flipqy as he ruffled her hair. "Good morning" she smiled. "Where's Flippy?"
Flipqy then smirked... "Well what did you think I was cooking? Bacon?" He chuckled, which made Flaky's face go white. "P-please tell me y-you're j-just kidding" She finally said. "Fine," Smirked Flipqy again, "He's in the kitchen."
"Thank goodness!" Flaky mumbled as Flipqy walked back into the kitchen. Flaky followed shortly behind him and ran over to Flippy, who was flipping pancakes.

"Thank goodness you're ok!" She mumbled softly as she wrapped her small pale arms around him. "Of course I'm ok," Chuckled Flippy with a sheepish grin "In fact, I'm much better now thanks to you!"

He then handed the small timid girl a plate of pancakes and eggs with a glass of juice. "T-thank you" She blushed as she walked over to the table.

Flaky's POV:

'This smells great!' I thought to myself as I looked down at the plate of food in front of me. ' I'm so happy Flippy and that brat Flipqy decided to take me in last night! Whatever was in my house must have been terrifying... I-I just hope it wasn't a giant man-eating spider! I hate spiders!'

Flippy must have read my mind because he and Flipqy exchanged glances before clearing their throats. "Flakes," Flipqy said softly with a smile. "Y-yes?" I asked as I felt myself tremble a little, I then began to slowly eat my breakfast.
"I went over to your house this morning to check things out, and from what I found the place was, eh, trashed..." He frowned as he scratched the back of his neck. "It's not safe for you to go home until we get this all figured out, so until we do, you can stay with us" He winked, sending butterflies through my already nervous stomach. 'Who could have been in my house?' I wondered. I was then snapped out of my thoughts by Flippy, who was taking our now empty dishes to the sink.
"Don't worry Flaky, we'll go shopping later today and get you some new clothes to replace what was destroyed last night." Smiled Flippy as he then ruffled my hair. "I-I don't have my purse though". I said as I played with my fingers nervously. "Luckily Flipqy was able to find it this morning untouched. We gotcha covered though" He winked.
"T-thank you so much!" I smiled and hugged him. "H-how can I repay you?"
"You don't need to worry about repaying anything," He grinned. "Your company is the highlight of our day, and we're happy to help you out in any way we can!"
I blushed at Flippy's sweet words and hugged him again, which made him blush red with a chuckle. I then decided to go upstairs to get cleaned up and ready for the day.

That's when the phone rang...
