Connie approaches Sprout in the kitchen, well, not really approaching…
She floats behind Sprout, while invisible, planning to scare him.
“Connie, what are you doing?” Sprout turns to face her
“ugh.. how can everyone somehow see- Oh heyyy Sprout! My best amazing nice good cool great amazing cool awesome buddy! How’s it going??” Connie grins.
“You need something from me, don’t you.”
“…whaaaat? What’d make you think that?” Connie looks around, trying very hard to seem innocent.
“We aren’t really friends, Connie.”
“Oh what? Of course we are!”
Sprout just stares at her.
“…can I have some cupcakes?” She mumbles, glancing away.
“…why.”
“Oh… you know.. just…. Want to… givesomecupcakestoagoodfriendofmine-“ Connie turns slightly transparent.
“Who, exactly?” Sprout puts his hands on his hips.
“…b-b-brightney.” Connie pulls her hat over her face, slightly melting too.
“Oh, Brightney, huh?” Sprout now has a smug expression on his face, “ I think I know JUST what to make!”
“Really?”
“Yep! Just come back in an hour and the cupcakes will be perfect! Brightney will DEFINITELY love them!”
“…i don’t trust you-“
“Don’t worry! I wont make them weird or anything!”
“…you sure? You’re a bit… uh-“
Sprout pushes Connie out of the kitchen.
About an hour later, Connie is sitting in her room, staring at the ceiling.
Then she hears a knock at the door.
“Connie! Your cupcakes are done!” Sprout says in a sing songy tone
“okay….” Connie opens the door, and sees Sprout holding a box.
“Here! Just don’t peek in the box!” Sprout hands Connie the box.
“..why not-“
“Just don’t! Now go give them to Brightney!”
“Okay.”
Connie knocks on Brightney’s door, and hears footsteps walking toward it.
“Oh! Hello Connie!” Brightney says, once she sees Connie.
“U-uh… I..” Connie starts blushing, and just hands Brightney the box.
“Oh, this is for me?” Brightney tilts her head.
“..yeah.” Connie nods.
“Oh! Thank you, Connie!” Brightney smiles.
She then opens the box, and starts blushing a bit herself, too.
“..Wow, these cupcakes sure have a lot of… hearts?”
“…what.” Connie pauses.
Connie looks at the cupcakes, and yeah, there’s a lot of hearts drawn on the cupcakes with red frosting.
“..u-UH THATS- just a- th-they were meant to be strawberries..?”
“They were?” Brightney looks at the cupcakes closely
“LOOK AT THE TIME I HAVE TO GO WATER GIGI NOW BYE!-“ Connie disappears.
Then she goes to look for Sprout.
