Larry The Bunny- Chapter 2

Hiiiiii everyoneee!!
Wow, it's kinda been a while, huh?

I apologize- school last week was kinda chaotic, and I was also using a lot of time to finish reading the third book in the Maze Runner book series, AND I just kept forgetting some nights as well!
Eheheh... so yeah!


But I'm back, and I've got a 3-day weekend, so yay!
Anyways, I've been meaning to post a new chapter of Larry The Bunny, and I figured "Why not now?"

So, without further ado, here is CHAPTER TWOOOOOO!!! (Click this link if you need to read the first chapter, or reread it, hehe!)

Larry The Bunny- Chapter 2

After that night, time passed quickly, and Larry grew up, keeping the name he'd been given from the very beginning.

But soon, Henry began to notice that Larry was... different. He didn't act, look, or even talk like most boy bunnies, and he seemed interested in stuff that most boy bunnies would reject.

"Can I have this, Mom and Dad?!" he asked excitedly one night at Jamaa Clothing, touching a sparkling purple designer skirt.

"Um... well, uh... why would you want that?" Henry stammered nervously. Cora's ears twitched. She had noticed Larry's behavior lately too, and she seemed very suspicious.

"Because it's cool!" Larry answered without looking up from the skirt, obviously not thinking anything was odd.

"Well... Larry..." Henry said gently. "Most boy bunnies don't wear stuff like that."

Larry finally glanced upwards. "Really? Are you sure?" He pawed the sparkly material of the skirt again. "I think it'd look nice on me."

Henry felt Cora's gaze burning into his back, and he turned to see her glaring at him, her ears flattened. She took him aside and whispered into his ear fiercely.

"Look what you've done!"

Henry blinked. "What? What did I do?!"

"You told me the night Larry was born that he was a boy. You said he 'acts like one'." She gave a slight gesture of her paw towards where Larry was standing, being careful not to alert him. "How is that 'acting like a boy'?!"

"Well, uh... maybe he's just a bit... confused right now. I'm sure he'll be fine later!" Henry answered.

Cora leaned in closer and made her voice sharper. "That's not the problem, Henry."

"Then what do you think the problem is?"

"Henry!" Cora scolded angrily. "The problem is that Larry isn't a boy... she's a girl!"

Henry stared at her, realizing that everything added up. He grinned sheepishly, his ears down.

"Oops?"

Cora's eyes were flaming. "You've let him- no, her- go her whole life thinking she was a boy! You said that night that she definitely was a boy!"

"Well... I said I think", Henry pointed out quietly.

Cora just glared at him for a moment. Then she closed her eyes, let out a breath, and opened them again.

"Well, what do we do now?" she said, her voice sounding much calmer now. 

Henry looked back at Larry, who was now examining a jeweled necklace. "I don't think we should tell hi- I mean her. It might be too much for her to take in at this age. She'll be totally confused."

Cora sighed and rubbed her head. "Fine. But she needs to know eventually."

Henry nodded. "I know. But not yet."

Soon, Larry was old enough to attend Jamaasian Elementary. She talked every day the week before about how fun it'd be, and how good of a student she'd be.

"I'll be the smartest in the class, and I'll be good at everything they teach! And I'll make lots and lots of friends, and we'll all play together all the time- it'll be awesome!" she said happily at dinner one night.

Henry and Cora glanced at each other and smiled. They had agreed to let Larry be herself, even without knowing she was a girl, and it seemed to be working out just fine for now.

"You better go to bed earlier tonight, Larry", Cora pointed out. "Since tomorrow's your first day of school."

Larry nodded eagerly. "I will!" She finished eating and hopped up. "I'm so excited!" Then she bounced off to her room.

Now alone in the room, Cora spoke to Henry. "Are we going to tell the teacher to call her a she or something?"

Henry shrugged. "We said we'd keep this from her as long as possible. If we have to talk to the teacher about keeping it too, I'll do it. I don't want to ruin Larry's view of school."

"Fine", Cora replied, sighing. "And me too." She glanced back at Larry's room worriedly. "I hope she has fun tomorrow."

"I bet she will", Henry soothed her. "Don't worry- this'll all work out fine in the end, you'll see!"
