The Clicking pen

I scrambled onto the oak writing desk and zeroed right in on a chunky metal click-pen resting across an open notepad. That springy chrome button on top was practically begging for a test! Standing tall on my hind legs, I brought both front paws down hard onto the plunger. CLICK-CLACK! The sharp mechanical snap rattled right up through my arms, bouncing me back onto my heels. Naturally, I couldn't stop at just one! I leaned back over and drummed out a wild rhythm—click, clack, click, pop—until my paw slipped, launching the pen across the paper like a catapult and tumbling me bottom-first onto the leather desk blotter!
