A/N: Chapter 4! Sorry I haven't been updating lately, kinda busy this week. :P
Disclaimer: I don't own Codename: KND. I only own this story and a bunch of random operatives: Numbuh 874, Numbuh 436, and Numbuh 439. Heck, I don't even own Numbuh 202 or Numbuh 11.0, because Numbuh 202 appears in Operation GRADUATES, SCIENCE, and some others. Numbuh 11.0 appears in Operation COUCH. SO FUDGE THIS. I'M JUST A LOUSY STORY WRITER WITH NO LIFE.
Enjoy!
On a completely different note that's not even about KND: Did any of you guys read The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan yet? I did...IT'S SOOOOO GEWD! My favorite character is Leo...he's awesomeeee :3 Jason is...kinda creepy, and Piper's my second fave character.
Chapter 4
Numbuh 2's Plan
(Still) Numbuh 3's POV:
Walking back to my room, I thought of a list of other people to ask to the dance. Numbuh 874? Nah, he's such a know-it-all. Numbuh 436? Nope, too sensitive. Numbuh 2? No thanks. I'd always thought of Numbuh 2 as a friend; I didn't really like like him.
But then, as I walked into my room and sat down on my bed, I thought, But you wanted Numbuh 4 to be your date, and you don't like like him.
Startled, I realized the statement was right. I'd always referred to Numbuh 4 as a friend. So why did I want to go to the dance with him? Unless…
I was about to contemplate about this further, when Numbuh 2 burst through the door.
Numbuh 2's POV:
"Numbuh 3! Quick! You've got to hide me!" I dashed behind her gihugeic, pink, plush bed.
"Numbuh 2? What are you doing here?" Numbuh 3 peered behind her bed at me.
"She's out there somewhere…" I let out an Eep! and crouched further behind the bed as I heard sneakers clomping down the hall.
Numbuh 3's confused look didn't leave her face. "Who's she?"
I didn't have a chance to answer when the door slammed open. Numbuh 3 looked towards the doorway. "Hi, Numbuh 202! What are you doing here?"
"Tell her to go away!" I hissed to Numbuh 3, hoping Numbuh 202 couldn't hear me.
"Hi Numbuh 3! Is Hoagie here?" Say no, Numbuh 3, PLEASE! If you do I'll buy you any Rainbow Monkeys you want. ANY ONE!
"Yup! He's hiding behind my bed!" Note to self: Never run into Numbuh 3's room when hiding from someone.
"Oh, hi, Numbuh 2!" she said, looking around the side of the bed frame. "I was just wondering…will you be my date for the Halloween dance?"
"Um…no," I said quickly. "I…already have a date."
"Oh," Numbuh 202 said, sounding disappointed. "Well, if you change your mind, call me!" She winked at me, causing me to shudder a little.
As soon as she left, I stepped out from behind the dusty headboard. "Whew! That was close!"
"But I thought you didn't have a date," Numbuh 3 said.
"I don't."
"Then why did you say no?"
I slapped my forehead. "Because she's the most obnoxious person on the face of Earth!"
Numbuh 3 gasped. "How can you say that? Her hair's so pretty! I should've asked her where she gets her hair done!"
Knowing that if I didn't change the subject fast, Numbuh 3 would just start yammering on about hair accessories. So I said, "So, do you have a date for the dance yet?" Ugh! I mentally slapped myself. That was such a stupid question!
Numbuh 3 frowned. "No," she replied. "I wanted to go with Numbuh 4 but he's going with Numbuh 439. How about you? Who do you want to go with?"
It was my turn to scowl. "Well, I wanted to ask Numbuh 5 to be my date, but I was talking to Numbuh 11.0 today, and he said Numbuh 5 was going out with him!"
Immediately Numbuh 3 began gushing about how Numbuh 5 and I would make "the cutest couple ever". Then one of her sentences caught my attention. "You like Numbuh 5, don't you?" She let out a little squeal of excitement. "You guys like each other! That's so romantic!"
I hoped my face didn't look like Numbuh 4's when Numbuh 3 hugged him. Thinking quickly, I countered, "Well, don't you like Numbuh 4?" Oops. That was more of a thing to say to Numbuh 4, but Numbuh 3 was…well, a lot more sensitive. I expected her to burst into tears or flames, but instead her usually cheerful expression faded.
"I…I don't know," Numbuh 3 said sadly. At first I thought she was joking. How could someone not know if they liked somebody else? But then again, Numbuh 3 wasn't really the kind to joke around, and she was a little air-headed.
Just then, a brilliant plan began to take place in my head. "Wait a second…Numbuh 3! I just had the greatest idea! You want to go to the dance with Numbuh 4, right?"
Numbuh 3 nodded. "And I want to go to the dance with Numbuh 5, so why can't we make both of them jealous so that they'll want to go to the dance with us!" I continued.
"How?"
"We'll be boyfriend and girlfriend!" I exclaimed.
Numbuh 3 made a face at that thought. "Sorry, Numbuh 2, but I'm not sure I like you that way."
"No, pretend!" I explained. "Then Numbuh 4 and Numbuh 5 will be jealous of us, and want to be our dates to the dance!"
Numbuh 3's face lit up. "You really think so?"
I nodded. "Okay, I'm in!" Numbuh 3 said happily.
Numbuh 3's POV:
"Okay, I'm in!" I said happily. Anything for Numbuh 439 to not be Numbuh 4's date.
Still, I wondered, If Numbuh 2 likes me, why would he want Numbuh 5 to be his date to the dance?
I pondered this for a few seconds, then realized, Of course! He just wants an excuse for us to be boyfriend and girlfriend, even if it's fake.
I smiled at this thought, and waited in anticipation for our plan to begin after Numbuh 2 left the room.
-Transmission Interrupted-
A/N: So ends another short chapter. Hoagie is still messing things up, as usual.
Hoagie: Hey! What's that supposed to mean?
Me: Well, you were the one who wrote the note in the first place, causing all this bad stuff to happen. And now you've invented a plan that will make Num-oops, almost spilled the beans about the next chapter.
Hoagie: Now who's the one messing things up?
Me: Why is the saying "spill the beans" anyway? I hate beans!
Hoagie: *gasps in horror* I love beans!
Me: Correction: you love any form of food.
Hoagie: Hmph. Besides, it's not like I'm doing all this stuff in my free will. It's you! The evil author!
Me: You just noticed? :D Now, go away. I gots stuffs to do.
