Story of Sqampy

Chapter 10

I'm really sorry for not updating. School started yesterday so I haven't had too much time. Every Monday,  I will tell you my schedule.

STAMPY'S POV

I was laying flat on my bed for hours, trying to figure out what had happened. At some point, Squid offered me dinner but I couldn't hear him too well over my thoughts.

At 9:45-ish, Squid dragged me up. "Okay mate, pull yourself together! Someone wants to see you and you need to look presentable!" Squid got me to my feet before I sat down again.

"I'm not in the mood to see anyone," I sighed as Squid sat down at my desk in defeat.

"Do it. Please?" Squid pleaded before using his last attempt. "For Sqaishey. Please?"

"You really know how to get me to do things," I said with a slight smile. I went to the computer in Squid's room. Sqaishey's happy face was looking at me, but she looked serious. I glared at Squid until he left and closed the door behind him. 

"Hey Stamps. I wanted to talk about what happened. After watching both Lion King movies and 20 minutes of Finding Nemo, I began to do some deep thinking. I reckon it's all going to be okay. Would you mind meeting tomorrow as friends?" Sqaishey asked.

"Yep!" I replied, happy to get the worries out of my system. Sqaishey sighed.

"Good to get that out of my system. See you tomorrow!" She waved and hung up.

Squid burst through the door. "Mate, she just friend-zoned you!" he said dramatically.

"Ummmm, why is that a bad thing exactly?" I asked.

"Once you're in the friend zone, there's no way out. You're screwed, mate," Squid ended.

"I could really use some cake right now," I realised (I'm American. I accidentally spelled something that way for school), burying my face in my hands.

"One step ahead of you bro," Squid handed me a small plate with a slice of cake on it. I looked down and a single tear fell. I would never get the girl of my dreams.
