Hey, get your car washed today
Fill up and you don't have to pay
Hey, get your car washed today
Fill it up, right away
The girls were all washing cars at the auto dealership Eli worked at. Danielle got up on the roof of a car and started posing. Jackie was taking pictures of Danielle, "Work it, work it…"
Danielle was wearing a dark green bikini, Heather was wearing a black skull bikini and Nehal wore a red bikini with white flowers. Jackie who didn't feel comfortable wearing a bikini wore a light blue t-shirt that had written on it 'you sunk my battleship' and grey sweatpants.
The driver came out of the dealership looking furious. She stared at them all striking poses on her expensive Porsche. "GET OFF!" She screamed.
"Psycho." muttered Danielle as she got off the car.
The next car in line drove in. The driver rolled down his window. It was Neville. He was wearing a trench coat and dark sunglasses.
"Er…hi!" said Nehal wondering why someone would dress like that when it was so scorching hot outside.
Heather dumped a bucket of rolling soap on Danielle.
"Ahh!" yelped Danielle.
Heather burst out laughing hysterically.
Neville looked at Heather. "The full moon has risen." He nodded to her and drove off without getting his car washed.
Jackie was a bit upset, because Danielle, Nehal and Heather hadn't noticed her boobs had increased. Then again, why would they look there? "Damn them." She muttered. "And damn the heat!" She put her sponge down and took off her t-shirt revealing a light blue halter bathing-suit.
Nehal said, "Jackie this is a car wash, not a strip club!" She stopped and looked up. "Shit! Are those real?" Nehal yelled.
Danielle noticed as well walking over to Nehal. "God! She got implants! And stop yelling Nehal!" She said.
Jackie stood still not quite sure of what to do.
Nehal shook her head. "Naw! The first thing she'd change would be her nose!" Nehal said bluntly. Heather's jaw dropped and tried hard not to laugh, as she watched Jackie's expression, and watched her face change three different shades of red. "Must be an illusion or spell."
"Hey! I would like to increase my boob size too!" said Danielle.
Nehal rolled her eyes. "Well…all you have to do is get pregnant." She said sarcastically.
"Won't be that hard." said Danielle, glancing at Eli who had his shirt off and was strutting his stuff around the dealership.
Jackie finally found her voice after it got lost for awhile. "I'm right here you know!" She said angrily.
"Wow! I didn't know that you could get mood swings and bigger boobs in the second phase!" Nehal teased Jackie.
"Oh my god you're so mean!" remarked Jackie. She stomped off to help the next customer. As she was stomping she pulled up her grey sweatpants a bit higher so her soon to be large belly didn't stick out.
Danielle and Nehal sniggered.
Nehal then looked at her watch. "Oh my god Jamie and Draco are supposed to be here now!"
"Oh please don't use Jamie and Draco in the same sentence." said Heather. "That's just too weird."
Danielle looked at Heather and said, "You just did!"
Heather frowned.
Jackie walked up to the first car in line, which happened to be occupied by three cute guys who looked to be about the same age as her. "Hey um…would you like a scrub all over or a hose down?" She asked nervously. She was never good at talking with members of the opposite sex. Actually Jackie had never been good with words; she preferred to listen rather then to speak.
The driver seemed to be in a daze.
Jackie noticed that he wasn't actually looking at her face and she blushed.
Heather who was walking by said loudly, "Maybe we should all wear t-shirts that say 'my face is up here' with an arrow!" Heather said it loud enough for the driver to hear.
"Right," He said. "I-um want a scrub all over." As he handed the money over, his cute friends started teasing him.
More and more cars were noticing the car wash, and came even though their cars weren't particularly dirty.
"Customers!" Danielle said happily.
"Ah cleon!" (It means customers in French) said Nehal doing a Mr. Burns impression with her fingers.
Just then Draco walked over noticing that all these cars had come through.
"'Sup Malfoy!" greeted Nehal as she hosed down one of the not so dirty cars.
Draco did the nod thing to her. "Making a lot of cash?"
"Oh yeah!" said Danielle and her gaze met Eli's. She winked at him and he smirked in return.
Draco took a good look around. "How come there mostly guys here?"
"It's because we're wearing bikinis." Danielle shrugged stating the obvious. "Although there was a woman here earlier and she yelled at me because I was on top of her car."
Draco took a step away from Danielle.
"Hey!" Danielle put her hands on her hips noticing that Draco was still walking backwards away from her.
Nehal rolled her eyes. "Jackie's over there if you're looking for her."
Draco looked over at Jackie. She was looking sexier than ever in that halter. But he couldn't put his finger on it. He walked over.
By then Jackie was getting sick of people staring at her chest so without looking up she said in a bored tone of voice, "Would you want a hose down or scrub all over?"
"I want you." whispered Draco seductively.
Jackie looked up recognizing the voice. She smiled widely. "Draco!" She squealed and practically jumped on him. Draco held Jackie tightly and then after a little while let her down.
"Hey baby!" said Draco, but his words reminded Jackie of a serious situation. Jackie forced a smile, but Draco didn't notice the fussy mood change because he got distracted by Jackie's chest.
Jackie said, "Hey um…we um…I mean….I have to talk to you about something."
Draco was still staring at Jackie's chest.
"Draco!" yelled Jackie.
Draco snapped out of it and looked at his girlfriend. "Huh? What were you saying?"
"I have to talk to you about something important."
"Alright what's up?" asked Draco.
Jackie looked around. This wasn't a very good place to have a discussion about pregnancy. "Let's go inside." She took his hand and they walked into the dealership together.
"Crackers!" said Danielle who watched Jackie and Draco walk inside.
"What?" asked Heather and Nehal both turning to look at Danielle.
"I think Jackie is going to tell him."
"I hope it goes well." replied Nehal.
"Yeah me too." said Heathers sarcastically.
O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o00o0o0o0oo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o00o0o0
Draco thought that when Jackie said 'let's go inside' that was code for 'let's make-out.' So once they found a place they could 'talk' in. Draco shut the blinds and started to kiss Jackie. His hand found its way to Jackie's breast and he smirked.
Jackie pushed Draco away. "Stop!" She said.
"What did I do?" Draco said innocently.
Jackie could only shrug, afraid of what would come out if she attempted to reply.
Draco looked concerned. "What's wrong sweets?"
Jackie gulped and said, "I'm pregnant." She closed her eyes not really wanting to see what Draco's reaction would be.
O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0oo0o0o0oo0o
Jamie was seething with rage. Usually he wasn't an angry person but this time Nehal had outdone herself. How could Nehal do this to him? He strolled over to the car wash passed all the cars that were waiting in line. Jamie took note that some of the cars weren't even dirty. "Hey Nehal!" He called out to her catching her attention.
Nehal smiled mischievously at Jamie. "So I take it you got the invitation."
"Yes…" Jamie looked Nehal up and down realizing she was wearing a bikini and was looking good. "Bu-ahem...But why did you make me a boy-toy? I'm not on Oliver Wood's Quidditch team and I hardly know the guy!"
Nehal didn't see that as a problem. "Well you'll get to know him and the rest of the team better and as for the boy-toy part…" she smiled seductively. "I'd say you are one." She turned and walked back to help wash the current car she was washing a bit of a smirk lingering on her lips.
Oh how she loved teasing that boi!
Jamie suddenly picked up a soapy sponge and threw it at Nehal's back.
Nehal stopped as the soap ran down her back. She slowly turned around. "Oh it is so on!" She grabbed the nearest hose and sprayed Jamie with it.
Jamie pouted like he was a little kid again. "That's not fair."
Nehal laughed because Jamie looked so cute when he was pouting. "Aww Muffin." She said faking sympathy.
Heather's ears perked up and she stopped what she was doing. "Did somebody just say Muffin?"
"Do you guys mind? I have to get to work soon." the customer said almost half-heartedly as he watched the girls in bikinis. He started wishing that HE was the one getting hosed down.
O0o0o00oo00o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0oo0o0o0o0o0o0o
Draco froze. "Whoa! When did this happen?" He asked shocked.
"I don't know maybe when we had sex!" Jackie said sarcastically opening her eyes again. She sighed. "I'm so sorry."
"No don't be."
"Say what?"
Draco replied, "It's great that you're pregnant."
Jackie was bewildered out of her mind. She didn't expect this type of reaction. "So you…want me to be fat?" She asked helplessly.
"Well…you probably did not expect me to act like this but it will be great. The thought of you and I creating something together is…amazing. Sure this is a big step but I'm glad I'm taking it with you and not someone else. I love you sweets, more then you will ever know." exclaimed Draco. "Nothing can change how I feel about you. You can't get rid of me, if you thought that you being pregnant could run me off then your dead wrong." Draco looked deep into Jackie's brown eyes.
Tears were falling from Jackie's eyes at Draco's moving speech.
"Jaxs are you okay?" asked Draco wiping her tears away with his thumb.
"Yeah…" Jackie said avoiding his gaze.
She was hoping Draco would be as less enthusiastic about the baby as she was. What wishful thinking, she thought giving an inner sigh.
"Sweets, what can I do to make this better?"
Jackie still didn't say anything as she focused on the floor.
Draco put his arms around Jackie and hugged her. Jackie began to gently cry into his chest. They stayed like that for several minutes until Jackie stopped.
"Draco I'm pregnant and that scares me to death. I mean…as selfish as it sounds I like having the bigger boobs but still…" She sniffed. "I don't know…I don't think that I want to be a mother right now. Besides, I'm an auror and you're a death eater it would be too weird." stated Jackie. "I'm sorry." Jackie didn't like to let Draco down.
Draco looked a little sad. "Whatever the future brings I will always love you, sweets. I'll love you forever." Draco pulled away from the hug and walked off with his head hung low.
Jackie walked outside and met up with her friends who anxiously waiting for her wanting to know how the pregnancy talk went.
"How did it go?" asked Danielle, who was afraid of what the answer would be because Draco wasn't with Jackie.
"Not well! I'll tell you guys later tonight. Right now I just want to cut out early and go for a walk." Jackie shrugged her shoulders, smiled weakly and walked away.
Later that night…
The condo was lit with scented candles and soft music was playing in the background. The girls all sat cross-legged in a circle on the floor dressed in comfy clothes. It was a little ritual the four friends did when they needed to talk about the personal problems that were going on in their lives whether it had to do with family, boys or work.
"Who dares go first?" asked Danielle eerily.
Heather raised her hand in the air. "Let's talk about me because I have issues."
"Okay," said Jackie glad that she wasn't going first.
Heather said, "Oliver's hardly around now ever since Darren left. It's been tearing him apart and me too. I miss Darren! And I knew he liked me and all but I guess I never thought he would leave town all because of this." She paused. "Oh and I'm trying to raise Vlad back to life, which is illegal."
"Oh my gosh Heather! I had no idea." said Nehal giving Heather a hug.
"Hey – Hey can you raise Jim Morrison back to life too?" asked Danielle. She was a hardcore the Doors fan.
Heather laughed in the face of danger.
"Come on why not? You know how much I love him!"
Heather ignored Danielle's request. "I don't really know why I want to raise Vlad to life."
"Do you still love him?" asked Nehal.
"Aww…we can help you," said Jackie smiling.
"I…no! I mean, yeah, you can help me…but I'm not in love with Vlad. It's been years…but it wasn't fair for him to die like that." Heather glared at Jackie as if it was her fault. "He deserves to be alive."
Jackie felt like she had to defend Draco. "Look Draco didn't mean to do it."
"Oh yeah sure." replied Heather harshly. "Why don't you share your story with us Missy!"
Jackie's jaw dropped. "Fine I'll tell you. He wants to keep the baby."
"Shut up!" exclaimed Nehal surprised that Draco would want to keep the baby.
"Coffee is good." said Danielle randomly.
"Something's not right here." Nehal frowned.
"The coffee's fine Nehal. " said Danielle. Nehal looked at Danielle with an expression that clearly stated that her observation had nothing to do with coffee and that she would strangle her friend, if Danielle thought of pursuing it. Meanwhile..
"I thought he was supposed to be tough. But now he's sentimental romance guy?" demanded Heather.
"He's just a normal person." said Jackie. "The guy does have feelings you know."
" He does? Excellent." said Heather to herself. "Now I can crack him!"
"ANYWAYS!" said Danielle. "You all know my problem. I have to break-up with Diego because Eli's so much more…masculine."
"You can't break up with Diego. He's such a nice guy and what about my yoga classes?" complained Jackie.
"Your taking yoga?" asked Danielle.
"I want to! So does my friend Peyton we've been talking about it for weeks."
"So…" started Danielle wanting the conversation to get back to her and her problem. "I'm thinking that if I break up with him sooner the shorter time it takes for him to get over me."
"But your going to hurt his feelings!" protested Jackie.
"I know." sympathised Danielle. "I love him and all but I'm sure deep down he has feelings for Harry underneath that sexy dancer body of his."
"Neville says Harry's written all these letters to Diego but Harry's afraid to send them." said Heather knowingly.
"How does Neville know?" asked Danielle.
"After Ginny kicked Neville out and Ron kicked Harry out because he wanted to start a family with Hermione, they have to live together."
"Have you been hanging out with Neville?" asked Nehal curiously.
"He's helping me raise Vlad back to life." explained Heather.
"Oh…so that's why Neville was at the car wash." said Jackie.
"Yes." answered Heather. She looked at Nehal. "So what's going on with you?"
"What do YOU think is going on with me?" asked Nehal.
"I don't know…that's why I asked you." said Heather with a blank expression on her face. "We can all tell something's been troubling you lately NP."
Nehal sighed. "I'm having boy problems…again. Just recently Westley and Jamie got into a fight over me and now I don't know which one to choose. I really like both of them." She paused. "Westley's a really great and supportive guy but on the other hand…Jamie…wow…we have history together and no matter how much I try…you can't just erase that history, you know?"
Danielle nodded her head. "I understand, but what about Trey?"
"We're just friends. He's the Wanderer and I'm the Queen." Nehal stated with a smile on her face seeing her friend's clueless expressions. "It's a long story."
Danielle shrugged her shoulders. "I've got time to hear it."
"Yeah me too!" added Heather.
"Actually…I don't." said Jackie. "I don't mean to be rude or anything but I'm really not feeling so good…"
Danielle frowned. "I thought you were done the whole vomiting phase."
"I am…thank goodness." added Jackie. "I just um…feel like crap and I'm gonna go to sleep. Goodnight guys!" Jackie got up from the circle and went to her room, laid down on her bed, with one hand resting on her stomach and she let the tears fall down freely as she thought of her whole situation with Draco and the baby.
So Nehal began to tell Danielle and Heather the funny story of how they went back to Hogwarts and how their good old pal Filch embarrassed them and how she irritated Whitey.
