I think this is the first day without nice weather.
It's freakin' raining cats and dogs out there.
I didn't know it really rained in California. I thought that it only rained in Seattle.
At least I'll have a full day to rest my foot.
There is no way that we're going out in this weather. The over-protective freak won't let us. She said something about getting a cold.
So what can we do now?
"I have planned for this day." Oh no. "In case you two get bored and try and sneak out into the pouring rain, I have locked all doors and windows." Oh boy. "And I have brought fun things for you two to do. Board games!" This woman has issues.
But we both know that there is no way out of it. Freddie is giving me a look which says 'I'm sorry'. I told him to stop feeling guilty! It's not his fault that his mother is a physco!
I'm not going to let the Flubadubs choke me, and then cause me to make some kind of horrible girl sound.
I'm just going to smile.
See? That was just a nice, friendly gesture.
And he smiled back.
"You two are going to have a day of playing board games whilst I go shopping for essentials." She looks really happy with herself. Why? She just made my life even more of a misery!
"I'll just grab my purse and be off. If either of you hurt yourselves call me immediately. If Sam's foot gets bad them there is an ice pack. Have fun kids!"
And then there were two.
"We are not playing board games." Says that masculine voice.
"Wow, Fredward Benson being rebellious? I'm impressed."
"So what do you want to do?"
"Have an all-night party."
"Sam, I mean today."
"So did I."
"Sam."
"I don't know. Watch TV, pig out…"
"I did bring my secret stash of food."
"Secret stash?" Sound interesting…
"You think I can just live on sugar-free meals? A boy needs Fat Cakes and Peppy Cola regularly."
"You actually have those things? Here? In these four walls!" I've suddenly got a liking to him.
"Yep. We can feast on them whilst watching MMA if you want!"
"Didn't your mum block all violent channels?"
"Yeah, but I have all the best matches downloaded on my laptop."
"Have I told you lately how much I love you?"
"No, but I'm glad to know it."
Was that an act of flirt?
No. I'm just being paranoid.
But if it was, he was the one flirting, right?
But I did just tell him that I love him.
But he's feeding me sugar and letting me watch violence!
And that makes me love him?
As a friend.
It wasn't flirting.
Carly would probably class it as flirting.
But I wasn't flirting.
I don't flirt. And If I did, it wouldn't be me anyway.
It'd be the Flubaflirts.
"Come on then." He says. I follow him like a lost puppy. A lost, limping puppy.
He keeps the secret stash under his bed.
I'll remember that for future reference.
How much? My mouth is watering already. There must be like 30 Fat Cakes there.
And, he has the best matches on here.
Why didn't it rain before?
Now we're all set and ready to go. He turns the lights out, just leaving the computer screen to illuminate the room.
The nicest food and drink known to man are in front of us and ready to be gobbled.
Now this is the life.
The Flubadubs are here. But, like I said, I'm just going to ignore them.
I think that they are here because Frednub is really close. We're both squashed up on his single bed. Our sides are touching and really warming up…
But that's not like 'sparks' or anything.
No.
It's the Flubaheats.
Cos' there is no way that Freddie makes me all warm and girly. Though in a way he does. because he's the one who is causing the Flubadubs. So in a way it is him.
The Flubaheats are trying to warm me up so that I get flu. And then, I'll be all weak and have to give up on fighting the Flubadubs 's what they are trying to do. But they're not going to win. Cos' I'm strong. Just like these fighters…
Wow! Great punch!
"That was awesome." Freddie comments.
"I know!" There are some things that the nerd and I agree on. MMA matches being one of them.
It's kind of nice having him to watch them with me. Carly wouldn't really. Something about it being 'an unladylike thing to watch.'
Is that Freddie's phone ringing?
"Hello?" His face has dropped. "Yes mum, we are playing board games." He gives me a glance. I do as told, and turn down the sound on the laptop quickly. "What game? Well, we're playing Chess." He gives me another glance.
Time for the sound effects. "YES! Checkmate! And in only three moves!"
Freddie gives me an incredulous look. "No, mum I do not need to go to classes to make me a better chess player." Smirk. "Bye!"
"In three moves?" He asks.
"Mamma always wins."
Now, back to our movie-day thingy.
What's that sound? Oh. My phone.
I got a text!
Carly.
Hey:D What you up 2? xx
Watching MMA fights with Freddo :P x
And Mrs B agrees? ;) xx
She doesen't know. She's shopping. We're watching them on Freddie's laptop. :D xx
YOU CALLED HIM FREDDIE! (Gasp!) ;) xx
So? xx
You never call him Freddie! xx
I'm just tired. xx
Keeping up with the excuses, are we? xx
It's true! xx
Sure. xx
Believe me!
I'll believe you when you admit you're having a romantic time with Freddie. xx
No! How is this romantic? xx
Are you two both lying on a single bed, squashed up against each other? xx
It doesn't mean anything.
And do you have snacks to share. xx
I swear Shay; you watch way too many chick flicks. xx
So you admit it's romantic? :D xx
I never said such a thing.
But you said chick flick! xx
Make sure Freddie isn't reading this text… No. He's too into the match to notice.
I admit it's kind of nice. xx
Hah! So you do have a crush on him! I knew it! xx
NO.
Come on, it's obvious that you two are in love. xx
Shut up.
You didn't deny it:D xx
Shut up.

And now I've just gone and given Carly the wrong idea.
She's not going to shut up about it now.
It may be advisable to turn my phone off at this moment in time.
