Author's Note: Hi guys, I know it's been a while since I've written anything but for some reason my computer doesn't like word and won't let me on it. But, anyway, I'm off school ill today and mom's left her laptop unguarded. X-P
I watched this film the other day, sleeping with the enemy? And I loved it, it gave me this idea for a 3/4ness story so here it is. It might take me a while to update but, I will whenever I can, I promise.
Numbuh 30c had promised her that he was no longer on the bad side. He'd told her that he loved her and that he'd join the TND with her if it would make her happy.
Kuki sighed as she thought back to how she became reacquainted with Numbuh 30c at her aunts wedding party…
She'd wanted to invite Abby to go with her as she knew that there'd be nobody she knew there and she'd most likely spend the evening sitting and listening to her parents happily chatting about boring nothings to family that she'd never met, all night. It was like it at any family reunion.
Unfortunately Abby couldn't make it, alternatively asked Wally to go with her, she was never bored or uncomfortable when he was around, and he had some sort of calming vibe about him. However, he'd obviously had a bad day and his exact words as she remembered them were, "I've got better things to do than sit in a hall watching people get all lovey dovey over each other!" and by then Mushi had already invited Sandy so there was no more room in the car.
Kuki hadn't changed much over the years, only her hair was now only shoulder length and she was tall and slim. Yet, she kept her style of green sweater, and black leggings. However, she was wearing a short blue dress with a black bow on the waist for tonight. And wore a little makeup despite not usually bothering with it.
Numbuh 30c was there as his mom was apparently family friend of her aunt and uncle. Kuki had decided the moment that she'd seen him to stay clear of him. After all, he was a traitor to the KND.
Every so often he would walk past and she would giggle to herself about how stupid he looked. To be fair to him, he was wearing pretty stylish clothes, a white shirt and smart jeans. But Kuki didn't understand why he was wearing his hat and sunglasses.
However, Kuki also had to admit, he was still pretty cool. And quite cute.
So, as she'd expected, she sat sipping her lemonade while her parents spoke constantly to various, unknown members of family. It got later into the evening and after the buffet had been opened, people began to get on the dance floor. (Have you noticed how they never dance before the food?)
Anyway, Numbuh 30c walked over to her politely and asked her to dance. Kuki, 'oh so charmingly' told him to go away but was then scolded by her mother and forced to join him on the dance floor.
She scowled as he took her hand and let her to the dance floor, while they danced, Kuki relaxed, maybe he wasn't so bad as she thought, a few songs past and then somebody got up for karaoke, singing Against all odds by Phil Collins. She smiled and panted from all of the dancing that she'd done. Numbuh 30c gave her a sweet smile and placed his hands on her waist, she allowed him to do so and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"See? I'm not as bad as you thought huh?" He whispered quietly in her ear. She smiled and giggled as he mouthed the words of the song.
'So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the memory of your face
Ooh take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds and that's what I've got to face'
They swayed in time to the music throughout the song. When it finished they went and got drinks from the bar.
"Lemon soda and a cola please." Numbuh 30c said to the barman. "Thanks."
He handed Kuki the soda and sipped on his cola as they walked out of the crowded room and into the small entrance where they could talk without having to shout.
"So what do you do now?" He asked. "You obviously haven't been decommissioned because you remember me."
"We all got promoted to the Teen allies when Numbuh 1 turned 13. So we're exactly the same, but just older." She replied. "What about you?"
"Brought to decommissioning and saved by the Teen ninjas, they wanted to know about moon base. So they invaded the decommissioning and got me out, then I joined them." He replied casually.
Kuki looked at him in shock and anger.
"You told them about moon base!?!" She exclaimed.
Numbuh 30c just shrugged.
"Well, since Numbuh 1 told Numbuh 362 about the arctic mission, she said that I could stay in KND because it was just a misunderstanding, but I wasn't allowed to moon base since they couldn't trust me. Of course, since then, Chad joined the teen ninjas, so he knew way more than me anyway. But they let me stay because Chad knew 'what a great traitor' I was."
Kuki listened as she read his face. He didn't seem happy about what Chad had called him. Maybe he wasn't proud of it. Maybe he just wanted to do good.
She then glanced over at her parents, who were getting up and getting ready to say goodbye to everyone.
"Looks like I have to go." She said, nodding towards them.
"Well, can I take you out some other time or something?" He asked suggestively, slowly taking both of her hands.
"I…I can't." She sighed and gave a sad smile. "Moon base would freak if they found out I was even talking to a teen ninja."
"Well, do you have to be anything to join your team?" He asked.
She looked up at him and he took off his glasses so that she could see his dark blue eyes.
"I really want to get to know you more!" He reasoned. "If joining your team means you can hang around with me then, I'll do it….-…would you think about it if I joined you?"
She thought to herself. He seemed to have changed. And he was being so sweet.
She looked back up at him and nodded.
He beamed and leant forward, he gave her peck on the cheek and she blushed. Soon after, her mother and father came out.
"Oh, there you are Kuki!" Her mother sighed, Mushi fast asleep in her arms. Sandy tagged along just behind.
"Come on, let's go, we should get Sandy home before it gets too late."
The next day Numbuh 30c did as he promised and quit the teen ninjas. He also tried to get into the teen allies, although they wouldn't allow him in.
Kuki however, met up with him. There were no rules saying that she couldn't hang around with a teen as long as they weren't in the teen ninjas.
The day she brought him into the tree house was quite memorable. Every jaw of the other four members dropped to their shoulders, Kuki was pretty sure that Wally's was even further than that.
"You guys remember Kurt, right?" She introduced them.
Nigel, Abby and Hoagie nodded and politely said their greetings while Wally still sat agape and stared at Kuki's new companion.
Her friends hadn't changed that much either. They all wore similar clothes to how they always had. Abby had developed more of an hourglass figure, and Hoagie had lost quite a bit of weight. Nigel was still the same. You could say that Wally had grown, but not so much, he was still the smallest in the gang but only by a few centimeters.
"Well, we're just going to hang around in my room." Kuki informed them and led Kurt through the corridor.
Wally still sat in shock and disgust on the couch.
"Who was that guy?" He said in a fairly high tone.
"Don't you remember numbskull?" Abby asked, coming from the kitchen and sitting next to him opening a soda. "Stick sunglasses and a dorky hat on him."
Wally imagined Kurt with sunglasses and a hat but still didn't have a clue. He looked at Abby and made a 'huh' noise to show his confusion.
"God! Your so stupid." She chuckled. "How about imagining a flowery top and pink luau necklace?"
Wally thought again and shook his head. Abby growled in frustration.
"What about furry boots and a big fur coat?"
"I've told ya, I don't know!" Wally growled.
"It's Numbuh 30c, you doofus!" She sighed. Standing up. "You've given Numbuh 5 a headache! I'm going to my room!"
"WHAT!?!" Wally yelled, making Abby stop in her tracks and turn to glare at him.
"What's she doing with that guy? Doesn't she remember what he did to us?" Wally questioned angrily. "Well I'll go and remind her."
He was then thumped hardly on the head by Numbuh 5.
"You leave the girl alone, If Numbuh 5 hears that you've upset them then it's curtains for ya'!" She threatened. Walking out into the corridor towards her room.
"But…but…He's an enemy!" Wally whined.
"Numbuh 4, we're 16 now! He's probably left it behind them." Hoagie said behind his yipper magazine.
"You never leave stuff behind you!" Wally snarled. "Anyway, Kuki's 15, not 16. She's the youngest remember?"
"Well, she's a big girl now and she can look after herself." Hoagie sighed.
"None of us are entirely happy with him being here Numbuh 4, or being with Numbuh 3 for that matter! But like Hoagie said, it's her choice and… well? Don't you want her to be happy?" Nigel joined in with the conversation.
"Fine!" Wally muttered. "But I don't trust him."
A/N: Tut, Wally is always so tough to write for. Sorry if I go out of character for any of these guys in this story. Anyway, I'll update as soon as I can.
