Sandy's favorite colors

SpongeBob woke up to his fog horn alarm and jumped up.

'Today's the day! Today's the day I'm gonna tell her how I feel about her!'

It was a Sunday and he had made up his mind two days ago, after Sandy and he had been in an afternoon match of karate. But as soon as the sponge realized that he had no idea how she'd react when he told her his feelings he felt sick.

'I have no idea how she'll reply...or if she likes me back!'

SpongeBob quickly got ready and then saw that Gary was already awake.

"Sorry Gare-bear, I must have forgotten to feed you after all that worrying..."

"Meow?"

SpongeBob blushed. "Why would you think I'm going to Sandy's house? I wouldn't be worried about that!"

"Meow..."

"Okay, Gary, you were right...but I am not blushing!"

"Meow!"

"Gary stop! I do have a crush on her! I mean... I do not...or...I may... Oh Gary! Help me! I don't know what to do! It's helpless! I can't tell her how I feel about her...she'd hate me!" SpongeBob started crying, his tears unrealistically filled the living room a couple of inches high and Gary slid over to a random drain, pulled it and rolled his eyes as his owner kept crying. "Meow."

"You're right Gary, I can't keep crying or I'll look even worse... What will Sandy think?" SpongeBob frantically ran over to the bathroom to look in the mirror. "Oh! Gary! I'm not good enough for Sandy!"

"Meow?"

"Oh... I don't know... She's my best friend and I don't want to do anything to hurt our friendship. But the wedding didn't change anything…" SpongeBob wondered if Sandy often thought about the "play", it had been so awkward. Well, it seemed more like a dream until he actually kissed her helmet!

"Er… You must be hungry huh?" SpongeBob looked back at his pet snail and Gary followed the sponge into the kitchen.

"I'm ready: to see Sandy! I'm ready: to see Sandy!" SpongeBob chanted as he went out of his house with his water helmet in his hands, but then he thought he might as well get her some flowers, because, that was a nice thing to do, so he walked over to his favorite flower shop.

"Well, hello SpongeBob!" The flower lady greeted one of her favorite customers with a big smile. "Getting some more flowers for that pretty girlfriend of yours?"

SpongeBob blushed at the words girlfriend of yours "You mean Sandy?"

"Yes. You still planning on telling her how you feel about her?"

"Yes ma'am."

"Okay, well how about these?" The lady said and held up a bouquet of purplish-pinkish daisies.

"Oh they're lovely! I'm sure Sandy will love them!" SpongeBob exclaimed and paid for the flowers. Then he sprinted towards Sandy's Treedome. Even though he had stopped at the flower shop, he still managed to be at Sandy's on time.

"Well, howdy SpongeBob! Come on in!" The squirrel said opening the second door to her home.

"These are for you, Sandy." He said as he handed her the bouquet and blushed, a little nervous about telling her that he liked her, 'I'll do it later on in the day.' The sponge told himself, hoping he wouldn't bail out again.

"Aww... That's awful sweet of you, SpongeBob!" Sandy smiled, which made SpongeBob blush even more. But his friend didn't notice, she walked over to her tree and poured some water in the vase where she had put the flowers in. She went back outside and placed it on her picnic table and then saw SpongeBob, who still stood frozen at the entrance. "Come on SpongeBob! You can't stay there all day!" She teased.

"Oh… sorry..." He nervously chuckled and walked over to Sandy, who was admiring the flowers. "Aren't they just a lovely color?" Sandy asked him.

"Yeah, er… Sandy?"

The squirrel looked over to the sponge, and her gaze didn't leave him this time.

"Yes, SpongeBob?"

"We've known each other for a long time and..." SpongeBob stopped. He couldn't say it. "I... I still don't know your favorite color…" He said instead, but Sandy didn't say anything. She just smiled dreamingly at something in his direction.

"Sandy...?"

"Sorry! I... uhh... I wasn't listening. What did y'all just say?"

"I asked you what your favorite color is..."

"Oh that's easy." Sandy said without thinking "Yellow."

SpongeBob stared at her for a second, a bit confused. He hadn't imagined yellow being her favorite color; he thought it'd be purple or pink… but not-

"And blue..." Sandy said.

That's when SpongeBob noticed what- no- who- she had been staring at. It was him!

"Sandy? Are you sure...?"

That was when Sandy realized her mistake. "Umm...Yellow like the Texas rose!...and blue like..." Your eyes. Sandy wanted to say but searched for something else "Like the umm... The Texas sky! And there's also… the… uhh… Bluebonnets! Yeah… Bluebonnets… There's nothin' as pretty and as beautiful as that shade of blue …" Sandy said, trying not to look straight into SpongeBob's bright blue eyes while saying that.

There was a short silence, SpongeBob nodded at first, acting like he believed what she had just said, but then he had to laugh at the thought of something and -trying not to laugh or even smile- he asked "Sandy, when exactly did you start liking those colors?"

It was an awkward question, why would someone ask when the other started liking a color? But Sandy, who was a bit distracted, fell right into his trap.

"Oh, about 15 years ago..."

A huge smile crept on SpongeBob's face and then Sandy realized what she had just said.

"I mean twenty seven! I've loved those colors since I was born, SpongeBob! Duh!"

"Yeah, yeah, Sandy, I heard what you said...Fifteen years..." He teased.

"Shut up. Fifteen years because I love- I mean miss those colors!"

"You see those colors almost every day, Sandy! I know it and you know I know it! By the way, I thought you changed the number to 27?"

"Well SpongeBob, if you think that I like you then you're..." She stopped. She'd be lying if she'd say he was wrong.

"I never said I thought you liked me..." SpongeBob interrupted her with another huge grin on his face.

Sandy's cheeks turned dark red; she had not planned for this conversation to go like this!

But SpongeBob, he was extremely happy, now knowing that he didn't have to worry about Sandy not liking him back!
