August 28th
The finale school bell rang and all the students let the classroom.
Wow the school day went faster than I thought. She thought to herself and stood, suddenly her phone started to vibrate. Marie checked her phone to see a massage from unknown number.
Unknown: Hi.
Me: Who's this?
Unknown: Oh its Eddward.
Me: Oh hey :)
Unknown: So I was wondering if you require a ride home?
Me: Uh sure if you don't mind.
Unknown: No problem for me, it would be an honor.
Me: Well don't you know how to talk to a girl :) I'll meet you by the car in a few seconds.
Unknown: Okay.
Marie places her phone back into her pocket and heads out of the class room.
Double D and Marie drive down the high way.
"So what movie do you want to see?" Marie asked.
"Ugh well, I looked at the movies playing tonight and I was thinking, Love above the clouds."
"Uh huh." Marie said, Double D could sense that she didn't like the sound of the movie.
"You don't want to watch it?" Double D asked.
"I mean, it's your choice." She said.
"Well Marie I want to see something we both will enjoy." He said. Marie shifted in her seat.
"Well there is one." She said.
"Okay what is it?" Double D asked.
"That horror movie" She said.
"The Creature from planet Goros vs. the Machine from Pluto part 3?" Double D asked surprised.
"Yeah I really liked the first two." She said, Double D chuckled a little. "What?" she asked.
"Huh oh nothing it's just...You and Ed would get along quiet well." He said . "He likes horror movies like that."
"Yeah well May got me hooked on them, she kept showing me these cheese comic books about monsters and stuff like that. And then I just got hooked on them." She said. Double then pulled into the trailer park.
"Ed's the same way, he even made a few comics himself, and although I'm not that big on comics I thought it was good." Double D said. "Alright I'll pick you up at 7:00." He said.
"Okay." Marie said acting like it was no big deal, even though deep down she was giggling like a little school girl. Marie got out of the car, grabbed her backpack and walked into her trailer.
Double D pulled out of the trailer and pulled up to his house to find Ed and Eddy on the roof, fixing to go slide down a homemade slide.
Oh not good, not good He thought and quickly jumped out of his car.
"What in heaven's name are you two doing?" Double D snapped at them.
"Come up here Double D!" Ed shouted.
"Me and lumpy put this thing together in ten minutes, come up here and try it out with us." Eddy called out.
Eddy, you didn't follow any sort of slide safety regulations. The probability of sliding down this without getting hurt is at least 2%." Double D said.
"2% out of five?" Eddy asked.
"2% of...1000 Eddy!" Double D quickly shouted. Eddy paused for a moment to think, then he snapped his fingers.
"Sounds good to me, Ed bring the chicken up here." Eddy said, suddenly Ed jumped up with excitement.
"OHHH where is the chicken Eddy?" Ed asked.
"Ugh...I meant Double D Ed." Eddy said, Ed lowered his head in disappointment.
"Awe." He said and made his way off the roof, He then grabbed Double D and took him to the roof.
"No Ed stop! This isn't safe!" Double D cried out. Once on the roof Ed placed Double D on the slide and him and Eddy got in.
"Alright boys, once this beauty works we can make some quick cash." Eddy laughed and started to wiggle around, this caused the whole slide to wiggle. Double D gulped.
"Eddy this isn't really safe we shouldn't do this." Double D cried. Eddy continued to rock the slide.
"One...Two...Three!" Eddy shouted and forced all three of them down the slide.
At 6:50 Marie stood looking at herself in the mirror for the sixteenth time. She wore a black short sleeve shirt, her hair in a ponytail and blue shorts. She placed her hand on her heart and it felt like a jack hammer on high speed. She quickly sat down on her bed and took deep breaths.
Suddenly there was a knock at her door.
"Come in." She said, the door opened and Lee and May walked in. "Hi." She said. Lee and May sat next to her on the bed.
"So are you nervous?" May asked. Marie knew she had to lie to her sisters, otherwise she would look soft. She snorted.
"No." She said trying to be as intimidating as possible.
"Oh really? That's why your whole body is set on vibrate?" Lee asked.
Damn. Marie thought and stood.
"No I'm not nervous...It's not even a date, W...We...We are going as friends!" Marie shouted wishing it was a date.
"I still think its sweet." May said with a smile.
"Yeah whatever." Marie replied.
"Any way let's get to the important stuff." Lee said.
"Like what?" Marie asked.
"First of all, if he does anything you don't want him to, send him a good old Kanker knuckle sandwich to his balls." Lee said while making a fist and shaking it.
"Oh please as if Double D would do anything like that." Marie said.
"Second and most important...Wrap it before you tap it." She said, Marie suddenly jumped up.
"Come on guys! It's just a friend date nothing else." She said then there was a knock coming from down stairs. Marie then squealed in high pitch "He's here." She said and ran down stairs.
Marie quickly stopped at a Mirror next to the door and checked her hair, she smiled and opened the door. And smiled at Double D, but then her smile quickly disappeared.
"What happened to you?" She asked. Double D wore a fancy shirt, and pants, and His beanie, along with a black eye, a slight busted lip, and a sling over his right arm.
"I fell." He said and smiled, "Well are you ready?" He asked.
"You don't look like you're doing okay." She said and brought him into the trailer.
"I'm fine Marie really." He said.
"Double please just sit down." She said. Double D gave in and sat down.
"Alright." He said and sat. Marie sat next to him.
"What happened?" She asked.
"Uh, well me Ed and Eddy went down a makeshift slide and it broke down." He said.
"Is your arm broken?" She asked.
"No, thank goodness, but the sling helps keep me from moving it." He said, "You know if we don't hurry we won't make it to the movie on time." He said.
"Forget the movie Edd your too hurt to drive." She said. Double D sighed.
"I'm sorry I ruined the night." He said. Marie gently placed her hand on his shoulder.
"The nights not ruined Edd...We can just watch a movie here." She said.
"Okay...What?" He asked. Marie got off the couch and walked over to the movie pile.
"Have you ever seen The Creature from planet Goros vs. the Machine from Pluto part 1 and 2?" She asked Double D smiled.
"No I can't say I have." He replied and smiled. Marie smiled back and put the first movie in.
"I'll go make some popcorn." She said and walked off. Suddenly footsteps could be heard coming down the steps, Double D looked up to find Lee and May.
Oh God I forgot about her sisters, they are going to pounce like a cat does to a mouse. He thought and watched as they approached him with...shocked expressions.
"What the hell happened to you?" Lee asked
"Oh it looks like it hurts." May added. Double D tried to answer but a lump formed and he couldn't get anything other than stutters out.
"I...I...T...T...T" He stuttered.
"T...T...Today Jr." Lee said leaning close to him, Double D pushed himself as far back as he could into the couch.
"I...I fell." He said. And swallowed the lump down hard.
"Fell from what?" Both sisters asked and leaned in closer to him. Double D tried to lean back, but if he tried anymore he would disappear in the couch.
"The roof." He said.
"Why were you on the roof they asked.".
"Hey!" Marie yelled, "Change of plans me and Edd are going to watch movies here, so please stop being leaches and go away!" She yelled. The two sisters leaned back and looked at Marie, They then started to walk away.
"Alright little sister we're going, just remember rule two." Lee whispered and smacked Marie's butt and her and May walked up stairs. Marie brought the popcorn and sat down next to Double D, and pushed play on the movie.
