The time was about 8 p.m, the coconut pie was ready and everyone enjoyed it.

For some reason they were all worn out and asleep.

Ulich enters the play area and goes to the houses.
"Pretty sure everyone is asleep..." He whispers to himself.

He walks over to Dogdays house and enters quietly.

'A sleepover?? Shit...'

He looks around quietly, everyone asleep but there was a mess.

Bobby and Picky were in the middle of class solitaire but fell asleep on each other.

Bubba and Kickin were most likely eating and fell asleep close by each other.

Hoppy and Crafty mustve been drawing together, but they were asleep on their stomachs.

Food, playing cards, papers and crayons everywhere.

He sees Dogday and Catnap asleep on the couch together.
Cuddling as always.

He quietly walks over, watching each step.
He carefully removes their grasps that they hold on eachother, being as careful as possible.

He gently picks Dogday after he freed him.

Catnap wakes up and sees Dogday being taken away.
"What are you doing??" He quietly hisses.
Dogday remained asleep.

"We just need to do some tests." Ulich whispers.

"Are you really???" Catnap whispers.

Catnap knows what they'll do, and he instantly suspects the scientists found out about Dogday.
But did they really find out or did someone snitch?

"Can I please come with..." Catnap adds.

Ulich sighs.
'Just like fucking Theodore with Richie.'

"No." Ulich says and leaves the house, holding Dogday like a pillow.

Catnap began to tear up, he gently left the couch, going to follow Ulich.

They make it to the laboratory and Catnap remained quiet.

Ulich sets Dogday in a bed... but it has no mattress, pure wood.

Catnap observes from a window, hiding himself with some trashbags that the janitor left out.

"Fouler, get in here." Ulich calls out.

"You got him? Did you just take him or he offered to go?" Fouler asks.

"I took him, but if he was awake, he would have let me take him. He did it to himself." Ulich shrugs.

Catnap is slightly confused as to what they mean.

"Should we wait until he wakes up?" Fouler asks.

"Nah, lets get it started." Ulich smiles.

He goes over to a shelf and grabs a tracker.

"He had this on at one point, but ill make it to where it... you know..." Ulich winks.
He straps it onto Dogdays arms.

"House arrest?..." Fouler jokingly says.

"Technically, but itll shock him and mess with his... ugh this is confusing- his nerves- wires- whatever." Ulich is frustrated.

Catnap gets a little worried.

"We should give him atleast 2 days off to get him back destroyed so itll be easier for us." Fouler says, observing the dog.

"Good Idea." Ulich nods.

Ulich grabs a collar, and puts it on Dogday.
"Will do the same thing, but 10 times worse." Ulich laughs.

Catnap isn't really understanding.
Kinda slow for a smart cat ngl.

"Lets test it." Ulich says.
"Itll be automatical- like a smoke detector, you test it, then it gets triggered and goes off. For him. It's happiness- his favorite." Ulich smiles.

He grabs this button device and presses it.

Dogdya jerks as he is asleep and is immediately woken.

"OW!!!" He screams, waking up.

"Perfect." Ulich smirks.

"Elliot will be so proud of you, Ulich." Fouler walks closer to Ulich and puts her arms on him.

"Thank you."

Dogday looks at the two nurses.
"What is this...?" Dogday asks.

"I mean you came clean, this is what's gonna happen. But stay silent about it." Ulich kind of gets pissed.

"But-"

Ulich presses the button.
"No but's, go home and cuddle with your little car boyfriend."

Dogday jerks again, in pain.

"Tell anybody this information, and you will be executed slowly instead of instantly." Fouler adds.

Catnap watches in horror.
But theres nothing he can do.

Dogday nods and slowly gets off the weird wooden table.

Catnap exists the laboratory and goes back to Dogdays home quickly and quietly.

—-

About a few minutes later. Dogday enters-

Catnap is silently sobbing onto a blanket.
He doesn't understand why.

Dogday rushes over.
"Whats wrong my dear?" Dogday comfortingly asks.

Catnap holds Dogday tightly.
"Please.. never leave my side ever again." Catnap says through tears.

Dogday kisses Catnap on the cheek.
"Ill never leave your side." He says.

The two share a moment of hugging.

Catnap has to pretend like he knows nothing.

Moments later, they're cuddling on the couch, Catnap all calmed down.

"I love you." Dogday whispers.

"I love you more.." Catnap says.

Dogday smiles.
And jerks.
But he acts like it was nothing.

"Dogday...?" Catnap looks up at Dogday.
"What did they do to you..."

"Shhh.. they just... put something in me... I guess it malfunctions..." Dogday says.

Catnap knows the truth, but plays dumb.
'I love you but why would you lie...?' Catnap tells himself.

He wraps himself around Dogday.
"I dont wanna lose you." Catnap says.
"Please be honest so I can save you." Tears fill his eyes yet again.

Dogday looks away.
"I-..."

Catnap began to cry.

Everyone else was dead asleep.

"Please don't cry.." Dogday says.

"Why did you lie to me Dogday?" Catnap asks through sobs.

"Im sorry..." Dogday is at a loss for words.

"Why did you turn yourself in if you knew what was gonna happen?"

"I felt guilty..." Dogday says.

"Guilty of what? You should be feeling guilty for lying to me."

"I know I just-..." Dogday cant say another word.

The two just hold each other for the rest of the night. In tears.
