hi everyone it's cuz your the PE teacher here at Rockville Elementary and I'm reading chapter 29 so sad mom running her fingers as we sat around the kitchen table today's the day she smiled at Lexie and me how did it go great I said easy really said mom surprised the contest is over but if we get a pet will still be a lot of work for both of you we talked about it I said I'm going to still walk dogs but I'm going to cut down quite a bit and I'm going to tutor again said Lexie but a lot fewer students so I guess that means we're going we're getting a pet said Mom Auto I shook my head not a dog I didn't make it Mom or sister out eyebrow really you work so hard to and you were being responsible don't think I didn't notice I handed her an envelope filled with bills this is the money I owe you for the toner and the bowls and stuff I thought we were missing some bowls sorry I mumbled I guess wasn't always responsible but I tried and we'll have to talk about my grades too I guess we will she said and a not very pleased for Ace but then she turned to my sister Lexie how much did you learn Lexi put a large wad of money on the kitchen table I wide grin on her face she smiled but there was nothing sneaky or smoke about it it was just a happy smile $500 she said for fluffernutter letter congratulations Lexie I said and I'm in it I didn't tell Mom about our conversation last night I didn't tell her that Lexie had fallen short too but we had succeeded together this was Lexi's MoMA I was actually happy for her sort of kind of I know she beats me at most things but maybe that's because she works harder at it I can't hold that against her at least not totally it would be nice to have animal in the house and who knows maybe fluffernutter would hate Lexie and love me I wondered if I could make that happen keep some milk ID and in my room have a drawer filled with secret cat toys pipe Super Sonic noise listen to Lexi's room that are too loud they're too high for human ear to hear but that a cat could so it wouldn't stay away this wasn't about getting a this was war no strike that I was done with Wars for now can we get it today said Lexie there's a house a few blocks away giving away kittens I just happened to see you posting on the website on your computer this morning there was a pitch for 2 they are so cute golden yellow with streaks of brown I know just that one I want there's one kitten that just looks just like a fluffernutter I admitted the kitten was cute she didn't have calls yet so when she swatted your fingers it felt like velvet cloth rubbing against them when you held your held her in your hands sheep softly her stomach vibrating I knew she would grow up to be a standoffish not very cute adult cat a yucky good-for-nothing flea Ball but for now she wasn't so bad and I hated to admit this to but she sort of look like a Fluff another I wouldn't have named her that of course and I would never tell Lexie the kitten look like a fluffernutter but this name seemed to fit and Lexie called her fluffy for sure which wasn't I had plenty of time to play with her since Mom grounded me for two weeks because of my grades except for school dog walking and soccer frankly I feared worse fluffy bounded what's the carpet and landed in my lap where I gently scratch behind her ears she doesn't dislike you said Lexie I think there was a tinge of jealousy there after all fluffy head bounded into my life not Lexie but I'm sure she will grow to hate you as much as I do she can never hate you as much as I do I shot back lamebrain said Lexi cobweb Cranium dumb School cerebellum challenged amoeba minded hollowhead but we both smiled after I said it and you know what it turns out I'm better at insults and Lexie you knew but she lifted the kitten from my lap and he interarms I watched her stroke fluffy I liked her more than I thought I would but she was still no dog everyone knows dog people are clever friendly good looking funny and overall fantastically wonderful and Cat people are not just because I taller ate it fluffy didn't mean I had turned into a cat lover overnight maybe in a year or two I would convince mom that to pets were okay a cat and dog the sound of barking interrupted my faults joyful loud bark from outside at first it made me a little sad as if I were being teased but the Barking was getting louder and closer he came from behind front door and the doorbell rang when I answered it there was sad holding a leash standing next to him tongue and tail wagging was a beautiful life round golden retriever at first I thought it was Alfalfa but this was just a puppy and when I looked into his dark eyes I recognized him bumper I said Dad what's going on ask Lexie she and Mom came into the Hall behind me you know always wanted a dog as a kid said dad and all this talk of dogs made me realize I still want one mom called me yesterday and told me that Lexie won the challenge and so I decided that maybe I could be the dog the owner of the family his name is horseradish his name is Thumper Dad I said that's drugged one of the great things about having your own dog is you get to name him I've always liked the name for scrap a question that's choice of names but I couldn't question is choice of dogs I've been down and horseradish ran over to me leaving on my knees and licking my face I'd grab him and throw it on the floor rubbing him is tail wagging his tongue race up and down my cheek horseradish was the only around type of dog he was the licking type of dog he was the loving happy type of dog most important he is my very own dog almost and really those are the best kinds of dogs of all can I I started to say you can come over and play with him whenever you want the dad stepping into the front hall closing the door behind him you to Lexi Lexi still help fluffy and she came closer fluffy didn't seem scared she just stared at horseradish with her curious because horseradish bark happily when he sat down closer for Stratus nuts fluffy playing playfully with his nose I think he likes her said Dad I'm sure they'll be best friends mom wife I bet this was all her idea can I take him for a walk I asked of course you're the expert dad smiled is it okay Mom I asked I'm still grounded go ahead she said with the wide grin I ran to the mud room and grab my shoes and jacket where I had home now the day before come on boy I've been grabbing the leash from Dad I know a whole bunch of good trails we can take and Dad yeah we need to talk about his name fluffy meow goodbye or at least meow and I was off with horseradish but horseradish is still much better name than fluffernutter I added shouting over my shoulder as I stepped outside I had soccer practice last night I showed up on time and Coach Drago hardly even get me a tall we played a scrimmage and I scored two goals the last one after I fake One Way check the other and left my Defender so confused he tripped leaving me a wide open shot Malcolm score three goals and you know what we both played on the first-team Malcolm on the left and be on the right but I bet would be really good no matter who started after all it takes a team to win a game just like it take 15 to win the war
