Let's Split Up, Gang!

"Uh, so are you two hungry? Went shopping earlier today and bought some stuff."

It was a fools hope, but hey, he had to ask.

"I parked it behind some bushes by the front of the castle we were just in. Hopefully it won't take us too long to get there."

"Ok. Um, I just thought, which was stupid, that tonight it would just be the two of us hanging out. I had a whole evening planned out." Fred sighed again and ran his hands through his blond hair. "Listen, Shaggy, I really like you, but I need to know that the two of us can hang out sometimes without Scooby-Doo."

He cleared his throat and bit his lip. "I, uh, just thought things would be different tonight. Silly me."

He let go of Scooby only long enough to reach for the box of Scooby Snacks to his right, popping a couple into his mouth before extenting the box to Fred in a silent offer. "Besides, the dog sitter canceled," he said, turning to look at Scooby's face, knowing the dog didn't like being called a dog. He tossed a Scooby Snack to Scoob, turning back to Fred. "You know he doesn't like being alone. He poops on the carpet, and then he tries to clean it and makes even more of a mess."

He still found it odd that the other male liked eating Scooby Snacks. He'd tried the biscuit once and it tasted really dry. He shook his head when Shaggy extended the box of snacks in his direction. "Right," he said, frowning a bit. It seemed like the dog sitter was always canceling. Maybe it was time to hire a new one. "Yeah, I'm aware, Shag," he replied. He was trying his best not to sound disappointed. He'd had a whole evening planned out for the two of them.

He took the kid by the wrist and started hauling him towards a window that looked big enough to climb through. "I'm Arawn by the way, I'd say it's a pleasure but it's really not, up you get."

"I'm Fred," he replied as Arawn led him to the window. "Thanks for saving my life," he said before climbing through the window, unsure of where it would lead.

"Don't take too long, that thing is right behind us."

"Thanks," Fred replies, clutching his chest. Of course he was used to running away from 'monsters,' though nine times out of ten, those 'monsters' turned out to be fake. Today was one of those times where he wished they were running away from a fake monster. "I-I know! If you need to go, you can leave me behind. I'm sure I can figure out a way to get out of here," he tells the older male. He didn't want to slow the guy down.

“Ah, wassail,” Fred repeated the word. Every time the gang and him hung out with Thorn and the Hex Girls he learned a lot. They were to cool and badass and knew so much. “I’ve never been one to turn down spiced cider before. I should try some before Scooby and Shaggy discover it,” he said with a chuckle.

Fred slowly nodded his head. “I-I guess not. You say that like it’s a bad thing though. If you haven’t noticed, I’m a bit dense when it comes to people liking me,” the blond admitted.
