The Extending Man

"Damn it, Reed, move away!" Susan told, elbowing him. Share the bed with a rubber man actually had some disadvantages. Especially when that man escaped from her bed at dawn, like a child who just stole some candies.

"I'm sorry Susie, it's not my fault, my body... well, relaxes when I'm asleep" she chafed and turned red.

"And I'm forced to share a mere queen bed with a rubber blanket?" she hissed, making him look down.

"Come on, Susie, what you want me to do?" he asked, with moaning and kind of stammering voice.

"Buying a king bed could be a good start" she said ironically, making him turn red.

"But... but then it'll be obvious for everyone that..." he excepted, but she didn't let him go on.

"Reed Richards, the whole world know we date. What exactly are you worrying about?" she said, between the teeth, making him sigh like always.

Johnny was passing absently before Reed's room. By the corner of his eye he saw Susan and him settling sheets and blanket on the new bed. He burst in a laughter.

"Hey my friend, did you end the blank into the old one?" he joked him, winking at her sister "Or did you two waste the mattress?" he went on, without stop grinning.

Susan put on irritate, and she went toward her brother.

"Go to Hell, Johnatan!" she hissed.

"Ah! The joys of having an extending body are endless!" he could say, before she shut the door close on his face.

"Your brother is really..."

"I know" Susan interrupted him sharply, then she laid down on the bed "Well, we bought it, what you think about start using it?" she asked him, mischievously.

By the way, Johnny wasn't wrong at all.

An extending body definitely got its advantages.
