Chapter 57: Chapter 57 Why is Teacher only looking at them?

Boo blinked at him. "That’s it?"

Rocky nodded shyly.

Boo puffed out his cheeks, then burst into a giggle. "Okay! I can do that!" He poked a tiny pebble again, pushing it crooked on purpose. Rocky gasped, fixing it immediately.

"Don’t move them wrong!" Rocky squeaked, his baby voice going high and squealy.

Boo snorted with a ghostly giggle. "Yes, boss!"

And so they sat there, one shy little gargoyle and one mischievous little ghost, arranging pebbles in neat little rows under the sun.

While Boo and Rocky were busy lining up pebbles, Drake flopped down on the grass under the shade of a big tree. He crossed his chubby arms over his chest, tail flicking behind him in mild annoyance. Beside him, Vlad Jr. sat with his tiny legs crossed, posture elegant as ever, even sitting on grass, he looked like a tiny vampire noble at a royal tea party.

Drake huffed, puffing his cheeks out. He turned to Vlad Jr., his amber eyes wide and suspicious. "Are you my friend or Boo’s friend?" .com

Vlad Jr. turned to him slowly, his red eyes half-lidded in disbelief, like he couldn’t believe he was being dragged into this conversation. He raised one perfect eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

Drake pouted harder, poking Vlad’s tiny shoulder with one finger. "I said whose friend are you? Mine? Or Boo’s?"

Vlad Jr. stared at him blankly for a moment, his little fangs peeking out as he bit the inside of his cheek. Then he flicked a speck of imaginary dust off his red uniform tie. "Drake. It is you who switches from me to Boo whenever you feel like it," he said coolly, his baby voice calm. "I don’t even talk to anyone else. I sit quietly. I mind my own business."

Drake froze, tiny mouth hanging open. He opened it, closed it, then let out a small "Hehehe..."

Vlad Jr. narrowed his eyes, his cheeks puffing out just a bit — the only sign he was annoyed. "Do you even hear yourself? One moment you say I’m your best friend, the next you float away with Boo and leave me alone. And you ate my cookie."

Drake scratched the back of his fluffy head, his tail flicking side to side. "Um... sorry?"

"’Sorry’ doesn’t get me my cookie back," Vlad Jr. deadpanned.

Drake’s face crumpled into a sheepish grin. "Hehehe."

Vlad Jr. huffed, crossing his arms with tiny vampire dignity. "You owe me one cookies."

Drake perked up, tilting his head. "Can I pay you in hugs?"

Vlad Jr. paused, the faintest blush creeping into his pale cheeks, before he turned his face away, pretending not to hear. "I suppose. But only today."

"Yay!" Drake giggled, throwing his arms around Vlad Jr.’s stiff little shoulders.

Across the garden, Alina pressed her hand over her mouth, trying not to laugh too loudly as she watched them, the serious baby vampire being squished by his wiggly dragon friend under the summer sun.

"Are you done hugging me now?" Vlad Jr. asked trying to peel Drake’s chubby arms off his shoulders.

"Never!" Drake squealed. "You’re my friend forever and ever and ever!"

Alina giggled softly behind her hand. She couldn’t help it.. they looked so cute, the serious baby vampire and the giggly dragon stuck together like mismatched puzzle pieces.

But on the other side of the garden, Luna, who had been sprinting laps with her fluffy wolf paws pounding the grass, slowed her steps just enough to catch that sight.

Her eyes narrowed. Her tiny silver tail puffed up twice its size. Why is Teacher only looking at them?

With a tiny wolf growl, she bent her front legs low — her fuzzy ears flattening back like a mini rocket about to launch.

Zoom!

In a heartbeat, Luna bolted straight for them — a tiny, angry gray puffball of fur and teeth. Before Vlad Jr. could say another word and before Drake could squeal his next "best friend forever," Luna crashed into them like a small, furry meteor.

Thud!

"Ow—! Luna!" Drake yelped as he tumbled back onto the grass, his tail whipping around wildly. Vlad Jr. let out a tiny "hmph!" as he landed ungracefully, his tie slightly askew looking very much like an outraged bat prince.

Luna, meanwhile, howled proudly, her tiny baby voice echoing like a squeaky trumpet and dashed off again before either boy could grab her. Her paws kicked up bits of grass as she disappeared behind the bushes, her fluffy tail swishing like a banner of victory.

"Are you crazy, Luna?!" Drake shouted after her, sitting up with bits of grass stuck in his hair.

Vlad Jr. brushed off his uniform with tiny, dramatic huffs. "She is absolutely wild," he muttered, free.webn\ove(l)(.)c(o)m

While Luna peeked out from behind the bushes, her tiny wolf tail flicking smugly, Drake was still picking grass out of his fluffy hair. His round cheeks puffed out with offense as he squinted at the sneaky gray puffball.

"Luna!" he squeaked, "You can’t just crash into me and Vlad Jr. and run away! That’s cheating!"

Vlad Jr. just crossed his arms, fixing his crooked tie with tiny vampire elegance. "Serves you right for hugging me too long," he muttered, but Drake was already ignoring him.

With a tiny determined hmph, Drake stomped away from Vlad Jr. and stomped straight toward the bushes — where Luna’s eyes blinked at him from the shadows.

"Come out here, Luna!" Drake shouted, "Come out and say sorry!"

But Luna just wagged her tail — once, twice and then zoom! she dashed out from her hiding spot, bolting right past him with a tiny wolf bark.

"Hey—!" Drake yelped, his eyes going wide as he spun around. "Don’t run away from me!"

And then, with a tiny huff, Drake did what any proper little dragon would do: he spread his fluffy dragon wings and pushed off the ground.

Flapping fastly, he chased after her. "Lunaaaa! I’m gonna get you! You can’t run from the mighty Drake!"

Luna’s only answer was a playful yip! as she zig-zagged through the flower beds, her silver fur a fluffy blur. Every time Drake swooped closer, she ducked under a branch or dove behind Rocky, who squeaked in surprise as his pebbles went scattering.
