Conflicted Feelings (Max Goof x Reader)

Under your thumb

There was loud crashing, ground rumbling, and trees falling over by our campsite, "What the heck is happening over there?" I stretch my neck out to see into the distance. "I have no idea," Max stands up, "but let's go check it out!" Max rush's over to the commotion, "Hey! Wait up!" I push myself off the rock and follow behind him.

When I caught up, there was a huge, and I'm talking huge, RV taking over our area. "Woah! Now that's camping!" Max stares at it in awe, "You say something, Max? Ow!!" Goofy asks before getting hit in the head with the heavy RV door. "Mr Goof! Are you okay?" I run over to Goofy who was under the folded door.

From the open doorway came out a heavy figure, "Pete?" Goofy questioned as I helped him up to his feet, "Goofy?" He replied. Pete laughed, "What a serendipity do dah! Who'da thunk it, huh?" He lowered the RV door to the ground. "Is PJ here?" Max asked, "Oh, yeah. I'm sure he's loafing around here somewhere." I looked at Max excited to see he had the same expression.

"Come on _____! Let's go find him," Max leads us to a door to see PJ buffering the floor. He's singing along to the stereo blasting Powerline, "What a goob!" We chuckle, before walking in. PJ begins treating the buffer like a microphone, still singing along. Max goes over to the loud stereo to turn it off, but PJ oblivion, keeps singing along.

"Even if you got to shout out loud! No matter what you look it's Max and _____ ...Max! _____!" PJ realizes our presence, "Hey! Hey! Hey!" The pair start a handshake, "Woah! Small wilderness, dudes! Didn't expect to run into you guys, nonetheless together!" PJ said, as I jumped in his arms, "Apparently not!" Max smiles.

"You're just jealous man, 'cause you ain't got the moves!" PJ spins me around, "gosh you're a sight for sore eyes!" I beam, "So is my dancing," PJ rolls his arms in a constant motion, making me snicker. "Yeah, you can keep the moves," Max looks around, "But I wouldn't mind having this RV. You're so lucky, man!" He taps PJ's giant fishbowl.

"Me? Aw, come on! You're the star!" PJ said, "Wha..what are you..." Max fumbles over his words, "Going to the Powerline concert! Aw, it's unbelievable, man!" Feeling perplexed, I see Max's face turn into a guilty one, "who told you about that?" Max asked, PJ punched his arm. "Hey, come one! Everybody in town knows about it, Max. You are gonna be famous, buddy!" Max walks off with his hand in his pockets, "Especially with Roxanne," PJ teases.

I rub my arm in annoyance from the well know secret, "Can someone explain to me about what going on? I feel left out knowing the entire town knows about this and I don't," I pout, trying to be serious. "Someone's jealous," PJ pokes my arm, "Am not!" I frown hiding my blush, "I just have no idea what's going on!" I said, stomping the ground like a child.

"It's complicated," Max hesitated, "Max is going to perform with Poweline during the final number!" PJ slings his arm around Max proudly. "Um no...? Goofy is taking us to lake destiny, not to L.A," I raise my eyebrow in suspicion from the two different sides of the story.

"That's the thing, I sorta lied to Roxanne about that," Max rubs his head. "What? No way man!" PJ said in disbelief, while I stood there with a straight face, "Yup, I definitely believe that," I sighed. "And there's, uh, only one person who doesn't know about it yet," Max leans on the door frame.

"Well duh! Your dad doesn't, because he thinks we're going to lake destiny," I lean on him. Max shrugged me off of him, "not helping," he said, "Wasn't trying to," I couldn't help but chuckle. PJ took his hat off, "what are you going to do dude? The whole town knows about this," he runs his hand through his hair stressed out.

"I- I don't know man," Max's voice faltered. As much as it is his fault I couldn't help but feel sympathetic for him. "Max..." I walk over to him, "I promised to help you in anyway I can, so I'm sure we can figure this out somehow." I tried giving him hope, but as much as he could appreciate it, he knew his luck was slim.

"PJ!!" A deep voice bellowed from above. PJ let out a big 'eep' before rushing to the roof of the RV. We looked at each other before shrugging and following after the scaredy-cat. When we reached the top, the whole roof was a bowling alley. We saw PJ's dad point to a single pin, making PJ run over to it, and kicking it down.

He starts jumping up and down, celebrating his so called strike. "I don't think that's how bowling works," I whispered to Goofy. He smiles ruffling my head, as Pete sikes out PJ in a high five. "Say, Goof, why don't you three stay for dinner?" Pete suggests, "Cool!" Max speaks up excited.

"Oh, no thanks, Pete. We have some fish to catch!" Goofy put his arms around us, but Max quickly gets out of his grasp, "Aw, Dad, we can do that tomorrow. So, uh, what are we having?" Max asks with his hands rubbing together, "But Max, I thought..." Pete nudged Goofy, making a weird gesture with his hand and his thumb.

Goofy's usual soft expression turned into a stern one, "Maximillian!" He places his hands on his hips. "What?" Max said annoyed, "Get your gear, little man. We're going fishing!" They both stood their glaring at one another, "and I mean now!" Goofy pointed away.

Max let out a heavy scoff stomping in Goofy's direction. The two adults winked at one another with thumbs up. "Come on _____, I'll show you my family secret cast!" Goofy patted my shoulder, "oh uh, okay." He grins, before happily walking after his son. I turned to PJ, "see you later PJ!" I waved.

"Bye _____!" He looked over to his dad before whispering to me, "if you ever get hungry, come to me and I can get you something," he winked. I laughed getting on the ladder, "I'll keep that in mind," I said climbing down.
