Chapter Three: You Have a Crush on Who Now?
So eventually Rose and Bree had to let their boyfriends go. They knew they couldn't keep them tied up in the elevator all day. Dustin kept complaining he had to go to the bathroom and Chase kept complaining he was getting rope burn.
So that ended with Dustin rushing to the nearest bathroom and Chase scanning his wrists for any red marks. Rose and Bree were trying their best to stifle their laughs, but they failed and were rolling on the floor, laughing hysterically. Both Dustin and Chase were not amused.
Mr. Davenport came home later that day and learned about everything that happened. Tasha came home just a few minutes after and learned about everything that happened. Both adults were then caught up in an argument debating whether to punish the kids for their shenanigans or not punish them and let them go, agreeing that they wouldn't do something like that again.
"They were just having a little fun, Tasha. It's no big deal. Besides, everything's okay now, right?" Mr. Davenport eyed the four kids in the room.
"Right."
"Absolutely."
"There was no real danger involved."
"We're okay and everything's okay."
Mr. Davenport looked at his wife. "See?"
Tasha frowned, her arms crossed. "I don't know…do you think you can go a whole week without any chaos happening?"
"Um…sure?"
"Maybe?"
"Of course!"
"Chances are highly unlikely."
Tasha looked at her husband. "Well?"
Mr. Davenport finally gave in. "Alright, we'll punish them. You four will do the dishes while Tasha and I will go out for a nice dinner. Oh and no bionics!"
"Can I come along, Donnie?" Douglas asked, appearing out of nowhere. No one even realized he was in the room at all.
"No." Donald said bluntly. "You are doing the dishes too." The husband and wife then walked out of the house, the door closing behind them with a loud bang.
"I can't believe we have to do the dishes all because of a little prank." Bree groaned.
"I don't even know why we're being punished." Rose stated.
"Do you really need an explanation?" Chase asked his girlfriend.
Rose frowned. "I guess not."
"What I don't get is why I'm being punished too." Douglas replied. "I wasn't even involved in your prank! I was saving you from being trapped in that elevator for eternity!"
"Hey, how about we actually get through our punishment instead of complaining about it?" Dustin piped in. "The faster we get done with everything, the better."
Everyone mumbled an "Okay" and walked to the kitchen to begin their duty of doing the dishes.
-Lab Rats-
So everyone had their own part in doing the dishes.
Rose scrubbed and rinsed each dirty plate in the sink and then handed them to Chase and Bree, who wiped and dried off the plates till they were sparkling. They then handed the clean plates to Dustin and Douglas, who set them neatly in the dishwasher. This continuous loop went on for quite a while until the silence was interrupted by Rose.
"Bionics would make this so much faster!" She blurted out.
"Yeah, well we aren't allowed to use them, are we?" Chase asked, drying what seemed like the one-hundredth plate.
"And if we were allowed to use bionics, it wouldn't be a fair punishment, would it?" Dustin added, setting a plate in the dishwasher.
"Yeah, you two are right." Rose replied. "At least we're almost done."
"Hey you five, how's it going?" Leo asked as he and Adam came into the living room.
Bree glared at her two brothers. "It would be better if we didn't have to do this at all." She remarked.
"Oh, well that's great!" Leo exclaimed, a cheeky grin on his face.
"Why aren't they helping us with the dishes?" Rose asked.
"Because they weren't punished like us." Chase explained. "They weren't even around!"
"That's right." Leo stated. "And even if we were, we wouldn't be able to."
Dustin raised an eyebrow at the two boys. "Why is that?" He asked.
"Leo and I have dates tonight." Adam replied.
Leo nodded. "With Dandy and Janelle!"
"Oh, what a surprise." Rose said sarcastically.
"We're going on a double date to the roller skating rink and the movies." Adam added.
"Sound familiar?" Leo asked, glancing at the four.
"No…not at all." Rose muttered.
"Doesn't ring a bell." Chase said casually.
"No comment." Bree stated, her attention on the dish she was currently wiping dry.
Dustin sent a somewhat evil look at Leo and Adam, not saying anything at all.
The doorbell suddenly rang and judging by the expressions on Adam and Leo's faces, they clearly knew who it was.
"Oh look at that, they're here." Leo responded, walking up to the door and opening it up to reveal Dandy and Janelle standing in the doorway.
"Hi Leo." Janelle greeted. "Ready for our double date?"
"L Doo is always ready." Leo said, doing a dance move. Janelle just shook her head and smiled.
"Hey Adam." Dandy greeted her boyfriend.
"Hey." Adam greeted back. "Shall we go?" He asked, offering his arm for Dandy to put hers around. Dandy laughed and wrapped her arm around Adam's. The two couples then left.
"I certainly hope their double date goes just as well as ours did." Rose mumbled through gritted teeth.
"Great," Chase stated. "Everyone is going on a date except for us."
"Because we're busy doing the stupid dishes while they're going on their stupid date! It's just all so dumb!" Rose exclaimed angrily, accidentally breaking the dish that was in her hand. She groaned. "I keep forgetting I have super strength!"
Dustin sighed, walking over to his sister. "I'll clean it up." He said, picking up the broken dish pieces and throwing them in the trash.
Rose smiled at her brother. "Thanks."
"You know, if you kids want, you can go on a double date yourselves while I finish up with the dishes." Douglas suggested.
"You sure Douglas?" Bree asked the inventor. "I mean we don't want to leave you doing the work that we were supposed to do."
Douglas waved a hand. "Oh please! There isn't much left anyways. Go on and have some fun. I insist."
"Well…okay." Rose replied. "I guess we're going on a double date…again. Let's hope this one doesn't have as many disasters as the first."
"I actually have a better idea." Chase told his girlfriend. "If you're willing to go along with it, that is."
Rose frowned. "Anything is better than having your hands stuck in soapy, dirty water all day long."
Chase grinned. "Awesome! It's a surprise though, but let's just say we're going on a little trip."
"Can you at least tell me where we're going?" Rose asked, drying her hands with a towel.
"Nope!"
"Great…"
"Come on." Chase grabbed his girlfriend's arm and the two bolted out the door.
"I wonder where those two are going…" Bree mumbled to herself.
"Who knows?" Dustin said. "So, what do you want to do?" He asked, looking at his girlfriend.
Bree smiled, setting the dish and towel down. "Caitlin sent me a text saying Stephanie is having a party at her house. I haven't responded yet, but I was thinking we can both go."
"Don't you and Stephanie despise each other?" Dustin asked. He remembered Bree telling him the story of when her and Adam tried out for cheerleading. Adam got in instead of Bree, which really upset her. Adam, being the good brother he was, quit and him and Bree just formed their own cheerleading team. Bree also told him the time of when Stephanie came to her slumber party, but later found out that she only came because of the kind of house Bree had. Not much of a friend, was she? He wondered why Bree was even still in contact with Stephanie.
"Yeah, but once she sees who my boyfriend is, she'll totally eat her words!" Bree exclaimed excitedly. "Now let's go!" She took ahold of Dustin's arm and pulled him out of the house.
"Those kids…" Douglas shook his head and smiled as he wiped another plate and set it in the dishwasher.
-Lab Rats-
"Chase, I'd really appreciate it if you tell me where we're going. Not that I don't trust you, but you know…I don't want to be mauled unexpectedly by a gang of bikers." Rose remarked as she walked with Chase down the street.
Chase had a sly smirk on his face. "We're almost there. And it doesn't involve any bikers."
Rose sighed in relief. "Oh good! Because those guys are just creeps."
"Whoa!"
"And here we are!" Chase announced proudly gesturing to the house that loomed before the couple.
"Whoa…" Rose said again. "What's inside?" She asked, looking at her boyfriend.
Chase smiled. "A very good friend of mine." He then walked up and rang the doorbell. The two waited for a few seconds before a middle-aged woman answered the door. When she caught sight of Chase, her face lit up.
"Chase!" She exclaimed. "What a surprise! It's been a while since you last came here!"
Chase chuckled. "Nice to see you again, Mrs. White. Is Emily home?"
"Why yes she is. She's in her room right now. Please, come in." Mrs. White stepped aside as Chase and Rose came into the house. She then closed the door.
"And who is this lovely lady?" Mrs. White asked, noticing the girl who was with Chase.
"My girlfriend, Rose." Chase introduced. "Rose, this is the mother of Emily, a friend of mine."
"Nice to meet you." Rose shook hands with the woman.
"You too." Mrs. White replied. "Well, I'll let you go visit with Emily. She'll be so excited to see you again, Chase. Have fun!"
"Come on," Chase led Rose to a spiral staircase. "Emily's room is just up here."
-Lab Rats-
"I'm not really comfortable being here, Bree." Dustin replied as he and Bree walked up to Stephanie's house.
"Oh stop being such a wimp!" Bree teased. She proceeded to ring the doorbell and a girl dressed in a maid's outfit answered.
"Can I help you?" She asked.
"Um yes, hi. I'm Bree Davenport. I was invited to Stephanie's party by my friend Caitlin. See, here's the text." Bree showed the girl her phone with the text on it.
The girl nodded. "Of course." She opened the door wider. "You may enter."
Bree and Dustin walked into the house. "Thanks-huh?" Bree turned around to see the girl nowhere to be seen. "Well, that's odd. She just vanished. Almost as quick as my super speed."
Dustin shifted uncomfortably. "Bree, I really think we should leave. I don't like being here. It's creepy."
Bree scoffed. "A girl in a maid's outfit who disappears like the wind scares you? Please!" She then saw Caitlin waving her over. "Oh looks like Caitlin's waving me over! Now you can join in and have some fun or you can stay here and be a scaredy cat!"
Dustin sighed. "I'll come in a minute."
Bree smiled. "Suit yourself." She then ran over to her friend.
It's not like Dustin didn't want to have fun with his girlfriend, but he really had a bad feeling about this place. It was creepy. And why would Stephanie, who didn't really like Bree, invite her over to her house for a party? It was odd.
"Something isn't right here." Dustin said to himself. "And I am going to find out what that something is."
-Lab Rats-
"Emily?" Chase opened the door and peeked inside to see the said girl setting up what looked like a tea party with her stuffed toys. The blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl looked up and a big grin overtook her face. "Chase!" She squealed, running up and hugging the said boy.
Chase laughed. "Having another tea party I see?"
"Of course! And you're the guest of honor again!" Emily replied. "I still have your top hat and cape. I keep it handy just in case." She winked.
"Can there be two guests of honor?" Chase asked, looking up at Rose, who was standing in the doorway watching.
Emily followed Chase's gaze and gasped when she saw the red-haired girl. "Who is that?"
Chase smiled. "My girlfriend."
Emily's eyes went wide. "Your girlfriend?!" She squealed. "Yay! I was hoping you'd finally get one!"
Rose raised an eyebrow at her boyfriend. Chase rubbed the back of his neck nervously. "Uh…Emily…why don't you finish setting up your tea party, okay?"
"Kay!" The five-year old girl raced back to her table full of teapots and teacups.
"This is your friend?" Rose asked. Chase nodded. "Yeah, I'll explain more later. Let's go have a tea party first."
Rose smiled. "I haven't had a tea party since I was nine. Dustin and I used to do them all the time."
The two then sat on the small chairs that were around the table. Emily then proceeded to set a top hat on Chase's head and tie a magician's cape around his neck.
"Now for you…" Emily looked at Rose. "I have the perfect accessory for you!" The girl ran into her closet and came back with a wreath of roses, which she set on top of Rose's head.
"There! You look really pretty!"
Rose laughed. "Thanks. And how appropriate since my name's Rose."
Emily quickly put a princess crown on top of her head and sat down on a chair in between Rose and her stuffed blue pony named Purple.
"So tell me, Chase, how exactly did you meet Emily?"
-Lab Rats-
Dustin watched as Bree was chatting with Caitlin and a few other girls he didn't really know. He was still debating with himself whether he should go over there and join the girls or leave the party.
"But if I leave the party without Bree knowing, she'd be so disappointed. Aw man…what to do…"
"Hey there hot stuff, whatcha' doing?"
Dustin looked at the girl who spoke to him. He groaned. It was Stephanie.
"Stephanie, what do you want?" He asked, annoyance evident in his voice.
"Oh, Dustin, you're so funny." Stephanie laughed, which annoyed Dustin even more. "You're not on my invitation list, but you're a friend of Trent's and a football player so it's alright with me that you came uninvited. I know you were just dying to come to my awesome, fantastic party that the whole school will be talking about for weeks! You know, the ones you got invited. The uninvited ones are probably full of envy and jealously right now."
"Uh…excuse me?" Dustin frowned. "I wasn't 'dying' to come to your party. I didn't even know about it until my girlfriend mentioned it. By the way, I only came because she was invited and wanted to come. And also Trent isn't my friend. At least not anymore. And I quit the football team a long time ago. I would've thought you knew that since you're a cheerleader." He shot back.
Stephanie looked surprised. "Oh! You have a girlfriend?" Clearly she wasn't paying attention to the other part of the conversation.
"Yeah, I do. So what?" Dustin retorted. He really wanted to get out of this discussion with Stephanie and leave this party that he really didn't want to be at.
"Who is she?" Stephanie asked. "Who is the lucky girl?"
"Bree." Dustin bluntly answered.
Stephanie's eyes went wide. "Bree." She repeated. "Bree as in Bree Davenport? Your girlfriend is Bree Davenport?! You're Bree Davenport's boyfriend?!" Stephanie was in a state of utter shock.
Dustin smirked. "Yes, I am. And I don't care what you and the other wannabes think. Bree is an amazing girl and I am lucky to have her as my girlfriend." He stated defensively.
At this point, Bree, Caitlin, and everyone else at the party had come over and witnessed the conversation between Dustin and Stephanie. Bree had her mouth open in shock. "Dustin?"
Dustin looked at Bree embarrassed. "I…I mean I…" Did everyone, including his girlfriend, just see and hear everything he just said?
"Is that true, Dustin?" Bree asked. Dustin smiled. "Well, of course, Bree! Why wouldn't it be true?"
"Well…I just…I…" Bree really didn't know how to respond.
"Bree, I care about you and I'd rather be at the park sitting on the bench and looking at the stars than being at a party I really don't want to be at."
Bree smiled. "Me too, Dustin. Now why don't we leave this popsicle stand?"
Dustin nodded in agreement. "Your wish is my command."
Bree looked at her friend, Caitlin. "Sorry, Caitlin, but I gotta go. Thanks for the invitation though."
The couple then held hands and walked out the door, leaving Stephanie and everyone else completely speechless.
"Let's go to the park and have a nice chat. I'd love to hear another story about you and Chase." Bree replied.
"Sure, the park isn't far from here and it's on the way home." Dustin stated as the two walked down the street toward their destination.
-Lab Rats-
"And on my recent visit to Emily's house, I told her about my bionics and life as a bionic superhuman." Chase finished explaining. Rose looked on in awe.
"Wow!" She exclaimed. "And she believed you?"
Emily nodded. "Yup! He even showed me his abilities!"
"Really now?"
"Yes!"
"You know, I'm bionic too." Rose commented.
"Chase! Your girlfriend is bionic like you?!" Emily yelled. Chase almost chocked on the 'tea' he was drinking, startled by Emily's sudden yell. "Emily!"
The girl blushed. "Sorry! I forgot you have sensitive hearing."
Rose laughed. "Hey Chase."
"Yeah?"
"Got any good stories to tell today?"
Emily looked around curiously. "What stories?"
Chase seemed to catch on to what his girlfriend was alluding to. "Oh…those stories…"
Rose grinned. "Yes! Tell!"
Chase rolled his eyes. "Okay…so this is about when I found out Bree had a slight crush on Dustin."
-Lab Rats-
"You Have a Crush on Who Now? Part I"
"Worst school day ever!" Chase exclaimed as he walked into the living room and threw his backpack onto the floor. He then plopped down onto the couch next to his sister.
Bree looked up from her phone and stared at her brother, who had his hands over his face.
"Chase, what happened? What are you hiding?" She asked, her attention now focused on her brother.
Chase sighed and uncovered his face. "This." He said, pointing to his black eye.
Bree gasped. "Chase! Who did this to you?!"
"Dustin." He muttered. "Who else?"
Bree smiled a little at the mention of Chase's rival's name. "Dustin…" She repeated dreamily.
Chase looked at his sister confused. "What? Bree?"
Bree immediately snapped out of her daydream. "Oh! Uh! So you say Dustin did this to you?"
"Yes…" Chase said slowly. He was getting a strange vibe from Bree. It was like…she had been spelled by the sugar plum fairy. No, wait. She had been bitten by the love bug. Wait, what?!
"No way! No way! Absolutely no way!" Chase yelled, getting up from the couch and startling Bree.
"What?" She asked, concerned. "What is it?"
Chase pointed an accusing finger at his sister. "You like Dustin!"
"No, I don't!" She protested.
"Yeah, you do! I can tell!"
"How so?"
"Whenever I mention his name, you have that dreamy look in your eyes. And you've been acting all lovey-dovey at school. Dustin walks by your locker when you're there. You see Dustin in the cafeteria. You see Dustin in class. Anywhere! It's like you're mesmerized and you can't stop staring at him!" Chase explained, throwing his arms in the air.
Bree scoffed. "Not true!"
"Don't deny it, Bree." Chase stated. "I know it's true. You acted the same way with Owen."
"So what if I like Dustin? What does it matter to you?" Bree asked, her arms crossed.
"Uh…it matters because he is my worst enemy ever!" Chase replied. "Have you not seen what he's done to me? Thanks to him, I got a black eye!"
"It'll heal…" Bree mumbled. She frowned and stared off into the distance. She did like Dustin, even though her brother and him were worst enemies. He may be a jerk sometimes. Yes, she's saying sometimes. But underneath, she knew Dustin was a caring, nice person. Someone just had to pull it out of him.
"I like Dustin." Bree said firmly. "And if we become boyfriend, girlfriend, you'll just have to deal with it."
Chase watched surprised as his sister super sped out of the room.
-Lab Rats-
"Wow, I didn't realize my brother was that much of a jerk." Rose stated, looking down.
Chase smiled. "Yeah, but look at him now. I guess becoming Bree's boyfriend really changed him."
"And me being his sister." Rose added.
Chase laughed. "Yeah, that too."
Rose then caught sight of the clock on the wall. "Oh man! We gotta get home! What if everyone is back and wondering where we are?" She asked, getting up from her chair.
Chase did the same. "You're right. Sorry, Emily, but we gotta run." He told the little girl.
"Good-bye. It was nice seeing you again, Chase. Nice to meet you too, Rose." Emily then gasped. "Oh! Wait! I almost forgot!" She grabbed her stuffed blue pony and handed it to Rose.
"What is this for?" She asked, looking at the toy.
Emily smiled. "For you. You can have Purple. She's my gift to you."
Rose smiled and knelt down to hug the girl. "Thank you, Emily. That's very kind of you."
"Have a safe trip!" Emily waved.
Rose grabbed her boyfriend's hand. "Come on, Chase, I can super speed us home."
A breeze blew by and Emily looked on in shock as Rose and Chase were no longer in the room.
"Whoa…" She then ran out of her room, screaming. "Mommy! Mommy!"
-Lab Rats-
"You really want another story, don't you?" Dustin asked Bree as the two arrived at the park and sat down on a bench.
Bree nodded. "Uh-huh. Unless you want to go back to Stephanie's party."
"No way!" Dustin exclaimed, putting his hands up. "I'd rather be tied up on railroad tracks and run over by a train than be at that lame party!"
Bree smirked. "Wow. Harsh."
"Anyways, this is about when I found out Rose met Chase and had developed some certain feelings for him…"
-Lab Rats-
"You Have a Crush on Who Now?" Part II"
"Best day ever!" Rose grinned as she danced her way toward her brother, who was busy playing Angry Pigeons on his phone.
"Dustin!"
"Ahh! What?!"
"Guess what?"
"Um…"
"You won't believe what happened today at the waterpark!" Rose exclaimed.
"Best day ever? I was there, Rose." Dustin replied.
"Yes, but you weren't there when I met a boy!" She squealed.
"Wait, what?!" Dustin dropped his phone, startled. "You met who now?"
"The boy of my dreams…" Rose sighed.
Dustin scoffed. "And who is this 'boy of your dreams'?" He asked.
"Chase Davenport!"
"WHAT?!" Dustin looked at his sister in shock. "Chase…Chase…Chase Davenport?! You have a crush on the nerd?!"
Rose frowned. "He's not a nerd."
"Uh, Rose, don't you get it? There is no version of the logical universe where my sister should have a boyfriend! Especially if that boyfriend is Chase Davenport! My worst enemy ever!" Dustin exclaimed, freaking out.
Rose rolled her eyes. "Calm down there, spaso. What's the big deal? Don't you want me to be happy?"
"Yes…"
"You hesitated." Rose pointed out.
"No, I didn't." Dustin denied.
"Lies, lies, all lies!" Rose yelled. "Seriously? Chase seems really nice. I honestly can't see how you two are enemies."
"Neither can I." Dustin mumbled.
"What was that?"
"Uh…nothing!" Dustin picked up his phone and put it in his pocket. "We should probably go now. It's getting late."
"Okay…" Rose said. "Dustin!"
"Yeah?"
"I was thinking of asking Chase out on a date."
"You really want to, don't you?" Dustin asked.
"Yeah," Rose stated. "I really do."
"Fine, but don't come crying to me when it doesn't turn out the way you expected it to."
Rose crossed her arms and frowned. "Don't worry. I won't."
-Lab Rats-
"I'm wondering the same thing." Bree replied.
"What is that?" Dustin asked.
"I agree with Rose. I really can't see how you two were ever enemies."
"Well…he turned me into a mash-up of spaghetti and pudding!" Dustin exclaimed.
"And you gave him a black eye so you're even. Are we done now?"
Dustin smiled. "I guess so. We should be heading back."
"Yeah," Bree agreed. "We should."
Dustin held onto Bree's hand and the couple walked out of the park and onto the sidewalk.
"You and Chase are good now, right?" Bree asked.
Dustin thought for a minute. Were Chase and him good now? It didn't seem like they were enemies anymore. They acted more like friends. So, was it true? Was their rivalry officially over?
"Dustin?"
Dustin looked at Bree. "Yeah, your brother and I are good now."
Bree smiled and planted a kiss on Dustin's cheek. "That's good."
"Hey, look we're here already!" Dustin stated as the two walked up to the door of the mansion.
"Think we should go inside?" Bree asked. "Who knows what's going on in there."
Dustin shrugged. "Only way to find out." He opened the door to see Adam, Leo, Rose, Chase, Douglas, Tasha, and Mr. Davenport standing right before him and Bree.
"Oh no…"
"Dustin what-oh boy…" Bree stared at the group of people before her.
"So…" Mr. Davenport began. "How was your date?"
"Actually, it wasn't a date." Bree corrected. "We-and you really weren't looking for an answer, were you?" She stopped once seeing her father's annoyed look.
Leo grinned as he pulled out a Davenpad and pressed the play button. "B-B-B-Busted!"
"So are we just gonna stand here and do nothing or are we building up suspense because I think the chapter's over, right?"
All eyes were on Chase.
"What did I say?"
