Believe it or not...

Brace yourselves.

Carb's got a date tonight.

Shes a blueberry muffin named Muffy. He's picking her up at 6 and taking her to his favorite place, Chuck E. Cheese. He says their pizza is so bomb that Muffy will be bound to spend the rest of her life with him.

He talked Queen Loaf into letting him borrow the bread-mobile for the night. Under one condition of course, no netflix and chill in the back seat and don't hit anything.

Carb was fine with that. He's never been past first base anyway. Heck, he's never had a girl look at him with out cringing. He hopes Muffy will be a different story. A cute one, because he doesn't want to date an ugly muffin.

Carb's prayers have been answered. Turns out Muffy has a sugar crumble top, the hottest of the muffin tops. What a lucky stick of bread. It was six o'clock and for once, he was on time. His mom will be so proud. Gold star Carb.

He stopped in her driveway, not even needing to get out because Muffy was coming out the front door as soon as he pulled up. He greeted her by staring at her when she opened the passenger door.

"Hey." Muffy smiled. Carb just blinked a couple times, continuing to look at her.

"I- I like cats." Carb stuttered. "Wait, no I don't. I meant my dog ran away. No uh, shiitake mushrooms I give up!"

"Oh my gosh, Carb. You're  so cute!" She giggled.

Carb blushed. He didn't think he was doing too well, but her compliment gave him a boost of confidence. "Thank you, I think you're hot."

"Oh." Muffy said as she looked out the window.

"Wait Im Sorry. I didn't mean to say it like that. I thought muffins like to be called hot. I mean me, as a breadstick, prefer to be called light and fluffy." Carb rambled on as he backed the bread-mobile down the driveway to the street.

"Where are we going?" She asked, changing the subject.

"Chuck E. Cheese." He replied, keeping his eyes on the road.

"NO WAY THATS MY FAVORITE PLACE TO GO! THEIR SALADS ARE SO GOOD!" Muffy yelled.

"DUDE SAME. BUT THEIR PIZZA IS BETTER!" Carb screamed, jumping in his seat a little. He could tell it was going to be a great night. (Lol no it's really not)

They walked in the front doors and Carb stopped in his tracks, sticking his nose in the air and took in a big whiff of the place. "Ah, the sweet smell of greasy pizza and boogers." He exhaled, smiling lightly with his eyes closed.

Muffy took his nonexistent hand and led him over to a table to sit down. Carb has never been touched by a girl, besides his mommy, so he felt the air get thick and hot.

"Is it me or is it really hot in here?" He asked, picking up the menu to fan himself.

"What are you talking about? I actually feel a slight chill." Muffy looked at him like he was a psychopath. Maybe because he was, but only low key.

"Uh, ok. Excuse me a minute." He got up and rushed to the bathrooms. On accident, he went into the women's restrooms and the shrieks notified him that he went into the wrong one. "SORRY!" He shouted as he covered his eyes and ran back wards through the door. He couldn't find the handle so it delayed his escape by a few seconds.

When he finally found the boys bathroom, he splashed cold water on his face. He leaned against the sink, staring at himself in the mirror. He didn't look too good. He looked pale and soggy.

When he left, he saw Muffy sitting in a booth with someone else.

His eyes narrowed.

Kitty.

"Oh haiill naw." He said to himself.

He marched over to Kitty and punched him in the nose. "DUDE BRO CODE YOU BROKE THE BRO CODE!" He whined.

"Carb, were not bro's so there is no code. I didn't know this was your girl anyway." Muffy blushed and looked away. "And you punch like a girl. It wouldn't make sense for you to date one."

Carb had no response so he sat down at the table across from Kitty and Muffy. He had a frown on his face as he watched them laughing to each other. When his pizza came, he angrily chewed it, still watching the happy couple. He might as well take advantage of the situation and take notes.

He wrote on his placemat with pizza grease

Don't sweat
Act cool
Put arm around her
Act cool

It was useless. He decided to ask Kerchief for advice since he's dating a bowtie. 

When Carb finished, he drove home and went upstairs to cry into his pillow.
