It was a Saturday and today was the day Sulley, Megan, and Prim are going on a picnic at the city park. Sulley combed his hair softly, making himself look handsome when Megan sees him. Knowing Megan will make the same country stew, Sulley was eager to eat some again. He also thought about what happened last Monday. It felt like Johnny was taking Megan away from him.
It was noon already and Sulley spotted the sisters. Prim was wearing a summer skirt and top, while Megan wore jean shorts and a country top as well. Megan was holding the picnic basket and Prim was holding the blanket. They waved at each other, eager to spend the day with each other.
"Isn't it a great day? The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and tons of fun", asked Sulley.
"Indeed it is. A perfect summer afternoon", said Megan.
Prim gently settled the blanket under the tree. Megan took out the jar of country stew, sandwiches, ice cream, and cold water. The monsters chit chatted while eating at the same time. They laughed and explained how the week went. Prim understood the way Megan lives in the city, but she still loves where she came from.
After lunch was over, Prim was befriending some monsters that are about her age. She talked about where she came from and they listen well. One monster was a girl, with pink hair, purple skin, three eyes, and wore a diva skirt. The other was a boy, with two grey eyes. He had red reptile skin, scales on his back and wore a pixel shirt of a space ship. Megan and Sulley talked about many more interests. They were getting to know each other well, but still, they're dying to know about each other. Suddenly, a thick cloud of grey clouds hovered over the park. Thunder roared like a lion's voice. It started to drizzle at 1;30 PM. Everyone ran to their cars without getting wet.
"So much for a perfect summer day", said Sulley. "Let's get out of here."
Megan put in all the stuff in the basket, including the blanket. Prim hurried back to the grown-ups, staying dry near them. "We better hurry if we know what's good", said Megan. Then lightning struck on the tree, where they ate lunch. "Get back", screamed Prim. The three jumped out of the area where the tree was. Sulley dodged where the tree was falling, slipping into soggy mud. Prim dogged the tree as well, reluctant to get crushed.
"Prim, are you okay", asked Sulley.
"Yes I'm fine, thank you. Wait, where's sis?!"
"I'm over here", shouted Megan in pain. Sulley and Prim looked around, confusedly. "I don't see Megan Prim. Do you?"
"No. Oh my god, where is she?!"
"Here!"
Megan's arm was under the tree, all stuck. Prim cried for her sister. Megan's arm was stuck alright. She could barely move it. Every time she tries, she screams in pain. Sulley couldn't believe what happened. "Prim, get my phone and call 911", cried Sulley. Prim scurried to the car, grabbing Sulley's phone and dialed 911. "Hello, this is an emergency! My sister Megan Stewart has her arm stuck under the tree! Please help!"
Sulley gave all his strength, lifting the tree. It was one of the largest trees in the park, with the heaviest trunks. "Ow! Don't move it that much!"
Sulley gasped knowing how much hurt Megan is whenever he moves the tree. Authorities came in from the fire truck, grabbing an arm machine. The arm lifted the tree slowly, while Megan gets a grip of herself. "Hold on Megan, we'll get you to the ambulance", said Sulley. He carried Megan right through the ambulance. Two monsters had a bed for Megan. "Thank you for your help sir. Put the patient on the bed and we'll take her to the hospital." Prim was crying for her sister, noticing how hurt she was.
At the hospital, Sulley and Prim were waiting impatiently to know the news about Megan's arm. Prim was still crying how that tree gave in all its weight to her sister's arm. Sulley was anxious, biting his claw slowly. "That tree was absolutely heavy. I hope Meg is alright", said Sulley. A doctor arrived in short notice. "You're here for Megan Stewart, right?"
Both monsters nodded nervously, waiting to hear the news. "How is she doctor? Is her arm broken", Sulley asked.
"Please don't tell me she broke it", said Prim while hiccupping.
"No, no, she just sprang it a little. Though her arm is going to be casted just for temporally circumstances. You may now see the patient", said the doctor.
Prim and Sulley arrived at the room. Megan had her arm cast. Prim cried in delight to see that her sister is okay. Sulley was relieved that wasn't fatal. "How's your arm Megan", asked Sulley.
"It's okay I suppose. The doctor said I'll wear the cast for a few days. Thank goodness it wasn't fatal."
"Sis, how did you got your arm all sprang up?"
"Well when the lighting stroke, I was terrified because I was right near it. I had no idea where I was going because I wanted both of you to be safe. However I went to the wrong side, where the tree landed."
"At least your safe for now", said Sulley.
"Prim, why don't you explore the hospital around. "I'm sure the nurses would like to give you a tour around here."
Prim nodded and went to the reception area, asking politely for a tour. The nurse smiled how polite Prim was. Megan showed the photographs of her sprang arm the doctor took in the x-ray. Sulley noticed how bent the arm was. He was shocked at how ugly it was bent.
They both stayed quiet for a second, trying to forget what happened at the park. Later at Sulley's place, they were at the kitchen. Prim talked about her day at the hospital. She talked about how nurses had to be by the doctor's side during operations. She explained how those fancy machines the people use to cure people. Then a nurse told her how scarlet fever can be treated on monsters. The nurse told Prim to never give aspirin to anyone under the age of 20 years who has an infection. The only way to treat the disease is drinking fluids, and rest. Prim was then reading a book a nurse gave her on many remedies. She was fascinated to see a lot of cures for monsters.
Later, Sulley and Megan sat quietly in the kitchen, not knowing what to say. "Megan, how come you couldn't dodge the tree?"
"I couldn't help you two being in danger, especially my sister. You saw how that lighting struck at the tree. I couldn't help myself but to check on you two to see if you aren't harmed. And yes, my actions will cost me dearly. I just hope my parents won't find out about this."
They both showed worried faces, not knowing what they'll say. Prim hurried into the kitchen and said, "You guys, they put us on TV." Everyone hurried into the living room. They saw how the incident was filmed. They completely forget helicopters flew by and shined light on the tree. The probably assumed the news must have filmed it. Then they saw each other, where Sulley carried Megan to the bed. Megan noticed how Prim cried. "Prim, were you crying about what happened?"
Prim nervously nodded no and couldn't bear to say another word. "Prim, it's okay. I know that was scary but there's nothing wrong about how scared you are. Just so long as if it doesn't change who you are. Do you understand sis?"
"Yes Megan", said Prim softly. Megan smiled and gave a kiss on her sister's forehead. "Very good."
At 9 PM, Megan and Sulley were at the kitchen again. They looked at each other as if they saw a ghost. Sulley sighed, knowing how he saw him carrying Megan. "Sulley, what you did out there was completely you. You're the kind of monster anyone can expect", said Megan.
"Well thank you, Meg. I thought I acted like a doofus."
"Never say you are a stupid monster. I wouldn't think of you like that."
"Sometimes my actions get carried away, that's all."
Megan smiled and gave Sulley a kiss in the lips. "You'll always be my trusted one", she whispered.
Sulley wore his sleepwear. A green robe this time and slept at 10 PM. He couldn't imagine how Megan said those words.
In his sleep, he dreamed of himself, seeing Megan being dragged by some monster. Sulley pulled Megan back but the monster that was dragging her was Johnny. Sulley dropped his jaw for a moment, knowing Johnny was in is dream. Suddenly a huge wave was about to hit the three monsters underwater. They all fell into the ocean. Sulley lost conscious for a day, and woke up in the sandy shore. He then noticed both Megan and Johnny were gone. He screamed for Megan, determine to find her before Johnny did. At that moment, he lost hope. He staggered to the floor, heartbroken that he lost Megan.
At 9 AM, Sulley woke up, all drowsy. Once again, today was a rainy day. "Great, more showers today", he thought. He groaned from his sleep, hitting the blankets. He was determined to watch Megan by her side.
I'm pretty sure Sulley and Megan will have alone time, on the next chapter.
