Chapter 10: The House Party

Friday Night. 7:30PM. CatNap and DogDay went to the address of the house party Hoppy HopScotch sent to them after school.

“This it?” CatNap wondered,

“Yes, it should be.” DogDay replied, “Come on, let's head inside.”

CatNap sighed heavily.

“Let's get this shit over with.” He said,

A Rhino Critter was blocking the front door as he saw CatNap and DogDay coming up. He looked at the list and smirked.

“You two are CatNap and DogDay, yeah?” He asked them, “Hoppy told me to add you two on the list, so you two can head inside.”

The rhino went out of the way for CatNap and DogDay to head inside.

“Well that was easy.” CatNap said, “For now…”

Inside, there were 8 other people in the house drinking fruit punch, chatting and vibing to the music being played. Hoppy was putting on the music, being her choice of rap or classic rock. She puts her phone down and turned to CatNap and DogDay and smiled.

“Well, about time you two show up!” She said, “Otherwise you would show out!”

Hoppy crossed her arms as she walked to CatNap and DogDay.

“Look at you two, dressing casually like us.” She said,

“...Why are you judging us?” CatNap wondered,

“Meh, I don't know, you tell me.” Hoppy said,

DogDay sighed.

“Ok, so… Is there any fruit punch for us?” He asked Hoppy, “We're thirsty, uhh, a little bit.”

“Gotcha boys covered.” Hoppy replied as she turned to someone in the kitchen, “HEY! FRUIT PUNCH FOR CATNAP AND DOGDAY! CHOP CHOP!”

Another Dog critter gave Hoppy the thumbs-up as she went into giving CatNap and DogDay their cups of fruit punch.

“Here, sit your butts down and make yourself at home!” Hoppy replied, “I'm gonna go get Kicken!”

Hoppy went into the kitchen as well. CatNap and DogDay sat down on the couch and laid their school bags that they brought. CatNap sighed as he tried to lay down.

“You're not gonna sleep on someone else's couch, are you, CatNap?” DogDay wondered,

“Don't care, I'll sleep on the road if I have to.” CatNap replied,

DogDay sighed as he slowly shakes his head no.

“Why do you always talk about that sorta stuff?” He wondered,

“Why are you so happy-go-lucky a lot?” CatNap wondered,

“I'm not always happy-go-lucky, CatNap!”

“Oh yeah? Then tell me something–”

“--EVERYONE, KICKEN IS HERE!” Hoppy shouted with two cups of fruit punch in her hands and gave them to CatNap and DogDay, “Here, don't worry, there's no alcohol in them. This is a store brand fruit punch.”

“Gee, thanks.”

“Y-Yeah… Thanks…” DogDay said as he looked down,

KickinChicken and Hoppy HopScotch were then in the center of the living room as they got everyone's attention.
