The Story of Sqampy

Chapter 37

Beth's POV:

I woke up, hopping out of bed almost immediately, and skipped into the living room. I smiled to myself as I grazed the bracelet linked to my wrist. Walking into the kitchen, I saw Squid already awake to my surprise. He was lost in thought as he absentmindedly sipped his tea.

"Boo!" I jokingly taunted Squid, actually alarming him a bit. 

"That actually spooked me a bit! What's up, Sqaishey?" Squid laughed off his scare.

Surprising myself, I just walked over and hugged Squid. He hugged back after a moment.

"Sorry! I'm just so happy, quite honestly. I feel so carefree." I confessed, spinning around the kitchen.

Squid was chuckling nervously at me. "Well, you deserve to feel that way. I'm happy that you're so happy." 

Stampy came in there moments later and saw me gleaming.

"What's making you so happy, ducky?" He teasingly flipped my ponytail over my face, making me giggle.

"Hmmmmm, I don't know, everything!" I smiled as he pulled me into a kiss. Squid frowned, clearing his throat to signify that he was still present. We laughed as we broke apart, though Squid held an expression that I couldn't quite pinpoint.

"Oh! Can we go to the fair? It's still open!" I asked Stampy. He looked thoughtful before he nodded.

"Yea! That would be fun!" He smiled at me. Squid smiled, giving Stampy and me a thumbs up. 

"Would you like to come with us? Maybe we could double date as we did that one time at the ball,"

Squid cut me off, shrugging. "Sorry Sqaish, I have some recordings to complete, and I think Amy mentioned doing something later. Next time though!" He hurriedly added, rubbing the back of his neck.

I was a bit dejected that they couldn't come, but he was right, there was always a next time!

"Alright! Well, I'm off to get ready then." I said, walking back to my bedroom.

As I walked in, I noticed Amy awake, sitting up on her bed. I greeted her as I walked past her to my wardrobe.

"Oooooh, what's the occasion?" She excitedly averted her gaze to me.

"Stampy is taking me to the fair! I'm so excited, I haven't been to a fair before." I said while Amy squealed.

"Awww! Maybe we can do a double date! Squid loves fairs!" Amy beamed.

I looked at her for a moment, quite puzzled. I thought he mentioned that Amy wanted to do something with him today? He looked quick to reject our double date offer earlier.

"That's strange, I asked him earlier and he said no and that he had recordings to finish and mentioned you wanting to do something later today." I frowned, looking at Amy.

"Huh... he just told me he's well ahead of his recording schedule," Amy stated, looking confused. "And I don't remember mentioning anything about that. I don't know."
