This part sadly doesn't feature any Weight Gain, but it will be a great build-up for what to come.

The picture for anyone wondering is a still taken from the episode "Topped With Buttercream".

Littlest Pet Shop is owned by The Hub Network.

Inside the Littlest Pet Shop Sunil was practicing out one of his magic tricks for himself. His goal was to make the water inside a glass he was holding in front of him with one hand to levitate over his head, and then down into another glass he was holding with his other hand. Standing silently in a corner away from everyone else, Sunil took a deep breath and started focusing. As he focused he could feel the water rise from the glass, and start moving over his head. Just as it was right above him, he heard the voice of someone who had been walking up to him. “Hey Sunil, what are you doing?” Taken completely out of his mediation the water above his head fell down on him. “Oh my god, I am so sorry! I didn’t mean to disrupt you when you where doing something important!” The voice said with lots of guilt. Rubbing the water out of his eyes Sunil saw that the one speaking was Penny Ling.

Had it been anyone else Sunil would have told them how angry he was that they interrupted him while he was doing some complicated tricks, but as soon as he saw that it was Penny Ling his whole anger over being disturbed seemed to just disappear. Seeing her beautiful eyes and hearing her cute giggle over seeing him all wet made Sunil laugh a little at it as well. “I only come here to tell you that its time for Mrs. Twombly to feed us. I didn’t know that you where busy practicing your magic.” “Oh, that’s nothing to apologize for.” Sunil said blushing slightly. “I-I’m just gonna clean up my act here first, and then I will join you and other pets for feeding.” Sunil said slightly nervous. “Oh, Okay. See you soon.” Penny Ling said, and walked away.

While cleaning up the water from the floor Sunil thought about why he always acted so strange when Penny Ling was around. When all the other pets where near them to he didn’t feel anything but when it was just he and her, he felt so strange inside. He felt like a fire had started up inside of him. He got all sweaty and nervous too, and felt like he was about to faint whenever she got really close to him. “I think I remember my mommy telling me about these feelings when I was just a kid,” Sunil thought to himself, “She told me that she had felt the same way when she meet my father.” “She told me that this thing is called…” Sunil paused as everything became clear to him. “Love” He said to himself.

Was he in love? He hadn’t ever thought about it. All those times when he and Penny Ling had been close to each other, or he had even just stared his eyes at her he had felt love? Thinking about it more another thought entered his head. “Was Penny Ling also in love with me?” looking back at it there had been times when Penny Ling had just walked up to talk to him without any real reason, and every time she had always looked just as nervous to speak as him. She had also looked a bit sweaty to speak and seemed to have problem keeping her eyes on focus on him, just like he had with her. Putting two and two together, Sunil finally saw the great picture in front of him. He was in love with Penny Ling, and she was in love with him.

After cleaning up Sunil went to join the others to get his food. They all had there own individual bowl where they would get their food in. when Sunil got there he saw that almost all of it was eaten. “What? But who would do something like that…” was all Sunil manage to say before getting interrupted by a small burp. Looking behind him he saw Penny Ling sitting there rubbing her slightly outlined belly. “Oh, I’m sorry! I had just eaten my own food but felt I needed some more so I looked at your bowl and thought he wouldn’t notice if I took just a little but when I started eating I lost control over myself and just kept eating and eating and managed to stop just when there was only very little left and I hoped that you wouldn’t notice.” Penny Ling rambled in panic, tears starting to form in her eyes. “Take it easy Penny Ling. It’s no problem.” Sunil said trying to calm Penny Ling down. “I’ve actually…thought about going on a diet.” “R-Really?” Penny Ling asked sweeping her tears of her eyes. Sunil took and put her hand into his, and as they did this Sunil could feel this warm feeling start rising again. “Yep, we are definitely in love.” Sunil thought to himself.

Feeling all mixed up by the emotions going through him Sunil thought about what would be the next step to do with his and Penny Lings love. “What I remembered my mum told me was that the first thing my father did when they had seen each other was to take her to a date. He had taken her to a place to eat, and once their eating was done he told her his true feeling about her. So the logical thing to do is to do the exact same thing, the only questions is where can I find a place to take Penny Ling out for a dinner date?” Sunil though just as the answer came jumping straight into him.

Being to lost in his own thoughts Sunil didn’t notice that their next-door neighbour Buttercream Sunday had come to visit (Buttercream is a yellow and brown colored rabbit who lives in a candy shop that’s right next to the pet shop.), and jumped right into the unsuspected mongoose. They both hit the ground and Buttercream was the first one to apologies. “Oh, I'm sorry! I thought about all kind of sweet, elite, flavours of candy I could create when I jumped right into yourself Sunil." She said in a very fast rapid pace. (Both being a rabbit and having a huge consuming of sugar made her whole persona very hyperactive and fast talking.) "I'm the one to apologies to you, since I was to busy trying to think out some good place for a dinner date." "A dinner date? Oh! Who are you having feelings for?" Buttercream asked curiously. "What? Me? No, no, I-I'm not having a lover. I'm doing this for a friend." Sunil tried to lie, but he could see that Buttercream wasn't buying it. "Oh, why did I have to tell her my secret plans?" Sunil thought to himself. "Fine. It's Penny Ling." Sunil said, finally giving up trying to hide it. "The Panda?" Buttercream said in a some what surprised tone. "What? Is it something wrong?" Sunil asked. "No. No. It's just that I saw you becoming pared together with Pepper instead. You know your looks, your personalities. It just felt more right." Buttercream said blushing a bit. "Pepper? I like her as a friend don't take me wrong, but I don't feel the same for her as I do for Penny Ling." Sunil said.

"Right, right, but do you have a plan for how your lovery-smugery dinner will be?" Buttercream asked Sunil. "I haven't got very far since sadly there isn't many places for pets to date." Sunil said sadly, feeling like this date would never be able to work. Buttercream too felt sorry for Sunil's sake until she got an idea so bright and good that it made her jump around Sunil like crazy for getting so excited to tell him. "I guess by your behaviour that you have figured out a way for my plan to work?" Sunil said knowing his friend's behaviour well. "I figured out the best'est most perfect place for two love-bonding mammals like you and Penny Ling to hang out in." "Oh, tell me. Tell me please." Sunil asked excited to hear it. "The place I'm thinking about is..." Buttercream said, dragging it out for suspense. "Yes?!" Sunil said, almost not able to contain himself. "The pantry!" Buttercream finally said proud.

Sunil got from being excited beyond belief to both disappointed and confused. "The pantry?" He asked. "Yes." Buttercream answered without any doubt. "The pantry in the candy shop next door?" He asked a bit slower. "Yes." Buttercream answered still as sure. "The same one where we all got locked inside and almost turned insane in?" Sunil asked really slowly so she wouldn't hear wrong. "The very same one." Buttercream said like if he was still asking her in a normal tone. "Is there something wrong with it?" She asked confused, as she saw Sunil looking like he was not able to handle the information. "How is a place that reminds both me and Penny Ling about being trap and with no way out, a romantic place?" He asked. "Because that is the romantic part of it silly." Buttercream said like it was obvious to the clueless mongoose next to her. "Just how is it suppose to work?" He asked, really wanting to hear the answer to it. "Just imagine this." Buttercream started. "You take Penny Ling to come and see some brand new sweets that I have prepared on a dinner table for you. As you two walk in I acts like I have forgot something for your date, and that's when you two get trapped. I tell you through the door that I will go and find a way to fix it, and leave you alone. With Penny Ling knowing that I'm out there trying to find a way to fix you out she will be more clam down about the situation, and you two will both be able to have the most cuddly-duddly date you want without the worries of someone interrupting."

"Do you like it?" She finished asking. "Like it? I think this is a GENIUS PLAN!" Sunil said so loudly that he almost got the other pets attention. Quickly calming himself down he said to Buttercream in an almost whispering tone. "In that way Penny Ling and me would be all alone all night if we want to." "And since I will be preparing the whole thing I will be fixing all the settings and the food for it." Buttercream added. "All you need to do is to ask her out to follow you to it. Think you can do that?" She asked a bit cocky. "Oh believe me. If you fix up for tonight I will make sure to have Penny Ling with me for the evening." Sunil said back in a very similar tone. "Then make sure to have her by my so called private place at around 19:00, and I will be having almost everything done." "No problems, Buttercream." Sunil said with much confidence.

Later when he actually was standing near Penny Ling (Who was having her back turned against him) he didn't feel as much confident anymore. "Come on Sunil!" He thought to himself," You can do it. Buttercream is taking care of everything else and you only need to ask her to join you." With all his inner strength he took and carefully tapped on Penny Ling's shoulder. She turned around and looked at Sunil with her cute eyes. "Yes? Was it something you wanted?" She asked and gave Sunil a cute wink. "I-I..." Sunil stuttered, unable to say a single word. "Come on Sunil!" His inner voice said. "You can't back away, so just say it!" "Would you..." Sunil said before taking a quick pause. "Yes?" Penny ling asked curious. "Want to.." He continued before taking another quick pause. "Yes?" Penny Ling asked even more interested. "Followmetothepantry?" Sunil asked quickly. Penny Ling had to think for a moment to separate the words from Sunil's rushed ending before asking. "Why do you want me to go there?" "Well, there's a..." Sunil said before feeling his nerves grab him again. "Don't stop now, Sunil! You have already asked the question. Tell her!" "A...Surprise." Sunil finally said. "A surprise?" Penny Ling asked. "Yes a surprise, and if you follow me you will see it." Sunil said and reached out his hand to Penny Ling. Without any second thought Penny Ling took his had and was being lead to the pantry. "Well, I guess this could work." Sunil thought to himself. "This whole thing was technically meant as a surprise for her, and when I tell her my feeling for her it will become another surprise."

Once there Buttercream was waiting for them outside the pantry's giant metal door. It stood wide open and was revealing the huge stockings of candy in all its forms waiting there. "Is the surprise waiting for us inside?" Penny Ling asked, getting a bit scared remembering the past memories of it. "Yes Penny Ling. If you follow me in we can see it together." Sunil said and took her hand and lead her inside. On the way in Buttercream leaned over to Sunil and asked "Haven't you tell her about the date?" "I will tell her very soon." Sunil said quickly before getting inside with Penny Ling.

Once inside Buttercream went on with the plan and gave the door a light push and had it slam shut behind Sunil and Penny Ling. Sunil was prepared so he kept himself calm, but Penny Ling got taken by surprise and remembering her previous experience of it made her start having a panic attack, and seeing it made Sunil think that this might not have been such a good idea. "Calm down Penny Ling, calm down." Sunil said and got himself closer to her trying to calm her down. "We are locked inside again! And nobody knows we are in her, AGAIN!" Penny Ling shouted, almost starting to cry. "So, so Penny Ling keep it together. This time we aren't forgotten. We have Buttercream outside knowing we are inside." Sunil kept saying to comfort Penny Ling. "Hey!" They heard Buttercream's voice say from the other side of the door. "I'm sorry, the door seemed to have been slamingly dangily again. I can't open it myself, but keep calm I will get some help for you. Just stay where you are and I'll get help."

"Stay where we are?!" Penny Ling said, sounding a bit more upset now. "Where else do you think we would be going?" She asked, but Buttercream had already left so she was left without any answers. "Great, what are we suppose to do now while we wait?" Penny Ling asked still a bit upset over the whole thing. "Oh, I think I know something we can do." Sunil said and pointed to where there was a nice small table with two nice small chair and some small plates with some delicate sweets served up. "And if you still would be feeling a bit hungry I think Buttercream and her owners wouldn't mind if we took some of this." He said and pointed at all the stocked up candy that was surrounding them. Before Penny Ling got a chance to answer she heard he stomach make a growling noise. "I guess we can eat a little while we wait." She said as she stared walking to the table. "I just feed her up a little bit, and then when she's feeling a bit more softer inside I'll take and tell her I love her." Sunil thought as he started following her to the dinning table.
