Brittany's POV
"Whoa, there's a lot of liquid in this one!" Alph enthused.
Charlie nodded, "Indeed it is."
"And the seed we discovered! Wow! I hope we find more of these!"
I observed the fruit more as I listened to the guys. Then I just couldn't help but notice something a little… inapt.
Unable to keep it to myself I giggled aloud, "Tee hee hee!"
So of course this catches Alph and Charlie's attention.
"What's so funny Brittany?" Charlie asked.
"This fruit…" I continued laughing; I was embarrassed to say it. But I wanted to explain myself.
Alph looked at the fruit, then back at me, "Yeah?"
I put my hand over my mouth and wondered my eyes away from him, "It looks like a bottom." I muttered so quietly what I had said was barely audible.
"Huh?" Alph leaned closer to me, "I can't hear you."
At this point, I was just giggling like crazy. I couldn't stop myself. "Hee hee! This fruit looks like a bottom!" I boldly stated, and stood there prepared to face the reactions to my indiscretion.
Alph made a funny expression and looked at the fruit again. Charlie had a look on his face that said 'really Brittany?' At the same time he seemed like he was trying to absorb what I had just said.
I laughed so hard, their expressions killed me!
Alph turned back to me with that same expression, "Wow, Brittany." He started to laugh too, "What made you notice that?"
I took a deep breath, "I'm sorry." I chuckled out, with my cheeks heating up.
Charlie gave his opinion, "I guess this means we should call this thing 'Mock Bottom' now. Hahaha!"
Laughter swept the ship, what have I done? Hee hee! This will be an interesting one to explain back at Koppai.
Alph shook his head, "Geez Captain."
Later that night when everyone had gone to sleep, I wrote in my journal.
The specimen is slightly fuzzy, has a high juice content, and has a hardy pit that should travel well back to Koppai. And as a scientist, I cannot and should not remark that it looks exactly like a bottom, hee hee! But I did! Tee hee hee! Alph and Charlie thought so too once I put it in their minds. I feel a bit guilty now that they're never going to look at this fruit so innocently again. At the same time, it's so funny! Tee hee hee!
Author's Note: Hi guys! This is yet another Brittany one shot!
I might want to add a second chapter to this. Focusing on the reactions to the Koppaites when they bring it back. Haha! XD
