Alph's POV
"He could just be on a mission just for the heck of it. You know how he can get when he gets bored."
Brittany's idea was on-the-mark accurate, I just can't help but feel worried for some reason. There was nothing happening that was causing me to feel this way, but I do.
I hope I'm wrong.
"I realize that Brittany, but it wouldn't hurt to check on him. Like I said, I haven't heard or seen him anywhere since we've sent out those invitations. I'm not accusing him of anything but it makes you wonder…"
She looked out the passenger window, "I just hope he's not in big trouble."
I said nothing and it remained silent the rest of the way to Charlie's house. When his house came in plain view, the first thing both of us noticed was that his car was not in the driveway.
"Is he even home?" I asked.
Brittany shrugged, "Let's go ring the doorbell and find out."
We both got out of the car and approached the front door. Listening really closely you could hear his pet duck wobble and flap to the door. When I rang the doorbell, she started quacking like crazy.
"Tee hee!" Brittany giggled, "She's like a little guard!"
I smiled at this adorableness and called out, "Captain? It's Alph!"
No answer.
"Captain?"
Still no answer.
"Lovely, he's not even home." Brittany sighed, "So what do we do now?"
"Hmm…" I don't know why, but I tried the doorknob.
And the door opened! We were surprised, Charlie never leaves his door unlocked.
"Okay something is definitely wrong." Brittany stepped one foot in the door, and I grabbed her arm.
"Britz we can't just waltz into his house like this."
She shook her head, "We're not doing anything wrong Alph. Besides, he's our friend he won't mind." And walked right in.
"Brittany! Brittany wait!"
When she didn't answer, I sighed and followed her.
Elizabeth the duck quaked at us as we strolled through the house. Brittany crouched down and pet her head.
"Hey it's okay, we're not bad people. We just need to know where Charlie is."
Just like that she let her guard down. I looked at Brittany.
"Looks like she understood you Britz."
She impishly smiled and continued walking, "We've all got our talents."
We made our way into the dining room and were a bit alarmed by what we saw. A broken bottle of fruit juice lay on the ground right next to a piece of paper. I approached it and took a better look.
"Hey Brittany, this is the invitation we sent him!"
"That's weird, what's it doing on the ground like that?"
She paused, bearing a look of uneasiness.
"You… you don't suppose Charlie… is… unhappy with us getting married… is he?"
I shook my head, "That can't be Britz, he's our friend."
"Yeah… but. Remember he was in love with me." She muttered uncomfortably.
"It doesn't make sense, he didn't seem to mind us going out."
"And now we're getting married. Not to mention we asked him to be the guest of honor."
This didn't seem right, in both senses of the word. Where's Charlie? Why would he be unhappy? What is going on? Is he really unhappy? That just doesn't seem real.
I still wanted to stand by my decision that he was just on a harmless journey, and that he would be back very soon.
Charlie's POV
All of a sudden, my brain was reeling nonstop. I didn't want anything to stop me and nothing was going to because I HAVE THE POWER!
I ran down the sidewalk jumping, flipping, and spinning. I suddenly had so much energy that there was nothing I couldn't do!
"I believe in MAGIC!" I yelled out randomly. People stared at me with funny looks. Wow! I must really be making everyone's day! I don't even remember what I was so confused and upset about!
"Oh… now I remember. Alph is marrying my Brittany… my Brittany… MY LOVE! MY TRUE LOVE! You know what!? I will steal Brittany! Alls fair in love and war! I WILL BE THE ONE! WAAAAAHOOOOOOOO!"
I leapt like a frog and tore like heck down the interstate, dodging all sorts of vehicles.
The trenchcoat woman, eyes still concealed with shades watched with amusement.
Hehe… that juice must be working now…
You see, when he wasn't looking. I sneaked in an extra super special secret ingredient. He didn't even know I was there!
I call it, "The YOLO juice." It makes a person feel more energized and bolder than ever!
Everything's going to plan, he's going to try to ruin the wedding!
Hehe… they will never be happy. That's what they get for trying to make a fool of me. And being happier than me!
I took off my dark haired wig, revealing my oh-so perfectly gorgeous blonde hair, "Sheesh, that wig was getting itchy."
Besides, as much as I hate to conceal these perfect locks, I couldn't risk him recognizing me.
This will be great!
