"Oh it's not that Boring." Ponyboy told Emily as she gave him a rather bored look. She wasn't so sure why she agreed to go with him to take your daughter to work day. Part of it might have been her curiosity about his job and the fact she didn't feel like being left alone at the house.

The duo pulled into a gravel parking lot and before them stood a huge building. They weren't exactly in Soc territory , but it wasn't greaser territory either. It was almost a mix of both. It seemed the socs who did go here, weren't terrible ones and the greasers who hung around here did nothing more than style their hair with grease. That was about it.

"So where is here exactly?" Emily asked looking at the sign in huge bright red lettering. It read Mrs. Smith's books and more. Leave it to her godfather to work in a fancy book store of sorts. Emily rolled her eyes some stepping into the huge place and was a little surprised at what she saw. It looked rather nicely kept and it's entire back wall was a huge collection of various hardback novels. Above each section was the genre.

It seems like the people who work here had a slight sense of humor, given every last book binding in the mystery section was facing the wall.

Emily shook her head slightly amused and followed her godfather up the steps to what seemed to be a meeting room. She walked inside seeing a handful of other girls in the room as well. There was a small tv in here and it seems the two youngest girls here both seven, were fighting over what they should watch. There was a girl in the corner reading a mystery novel, while another girl seemed to be reading a romance novel.

Then there were three girls chatting amongst themselves at a table. Emily took a seat on the couch. This was boring. She thought her godfather would at least show her around, but no. All he did was take her here and leave her alone with these girls. They didn't seem have bad, but none of them looked like greasers. Well the bickering seven year olds might be, but Emily wasn't all that sure.

What type of room was this even. It felt a bit too small to have all of these girls in it. "Hey tanny! You got a name?" One of the girls painting her nails at the table asked Emily.

"Emily. And you'd be?" Emily asked not really caring. It's not like she'd make friends with girls like them.

"I'm Betty, this is carie, And Maria." The girl announced. She seemed to be the ringleader of the trio.

"Pleasure. Look do they just leave us here till the end of the day or what?" Emily asked simply standing up and brushing her skirt off.

"Pretty much. They hardly ever have time for us at all. They claim to want to spend time with us, but all they seem to care about is their paychecks." Carie said simply rolling her eyes as she brushed her hair back behind her shoulder.

"Why don't we teach them what happens when they leave us alone? Maybe make it to where they question ever having a take your daughter to work day." Emily suggested getting everyone's attention.

"What you have in mind?" One of them asked making Emily smirk some mischievously.

Ponyboy yawned some fixing a display stand that a rowdy customer had knocked over. He was far used to it by now. He glanced at the clock and sighed softly. Hopefully Emily actually got along with the other girls here.

"So Ponyboy, Emily your actual daughter daughter or?" A guy behind the counter asked softly genially

Curious.

"Huh? Oh she's my goddaughter. But same thing right?" Pony asked hearing the beep sound of the intercam turning on. There was faint static sound and then a mock voice.

"Attention! Attention all employees! To celebrate take your daughter to work day, there will be a cake in the nearest meeting room! That is all!" Then the intercom went dead.

"You sure this will work?" One of the Seven year old said giggling hard through her hands. The others seeming to be snickering about the situation as well.

"Shhhh….." Emily said to the girls hearing their father's coming into the room. They filed in and Ponyboy grabbed the large knife left for them eyeing the cake oddly. It seemed it was mostly whipped frosting and barely any cake at all. Smelled kinda nice. Though oddly familiar, he honestly didn't care all that much. He was in need for a snack right now.

The girls all eyes Ponyboy as he attempted to cut the cake they had made. How they managed to get a hold of shaving cream at some bookstore wasn't much of a shocker. Only the first part of the building was the book store, the last half was a convenient store of sorts. Emily was now biting the inside of her cheek so hard , she could taste blood.

Ponyboy having had enough brought the knife up and quickly snapped it down. The cake exploded not only on him , but on the others around him. Shaving cream and feathers went everywhere. The girls all lost it giggling so hard their sides hurt and they were crying.

Ponyboy whipped shaving cream from his face and shook his head amused. He had a hunch who was behind this, given the fact she gave him an all too innocent look.

"Who is responsible for this?!" The boss exclaimed seemingly not so amused by the little prank. There was shaving cream all over the wall and feathers scattered around the floor in clumps. Emily looked to her godfather who signed some.

"Easy sir. Just a small prank. What we get for leaving our girls alone." Pony said making his boss snort some.

"Perhaps it's best you take all your girls home. While I get this room cleaned." The boss said irritably grabbing a broom and dustpan from the linen closet near by. Emily gave the others girls a wink who all did the same back to her.

"Bye Emily!" Carie shouted from her car window as her father drove off with her.

"So shaving cream and feathers huh?" Pony asked looking over at Emily who was fighting back laughter.

"Well...you shouldn't have left us all alone. Not nice to do that." Emily said innocently enough. The duo got home and Emily was the first to walk inside followed by her godfather. All eyes fell to him as he shoved his way past his brother and hopped into the shower.

"Shaving cream cake?" Two asked her seeing the mischievous smile spreading on her lips.

"Mhm...I don't think I'll be going to a take your daughter to work day for a while now. Same for those other girls." Emily said giggling softly as she took a seat on the couch. Two bit snickered some shaking his head at her. He honestly hadn't through she'd pull this prank on her own godfather. He expected it to be pulled on him, honestly.

"So two bit? You have any other pranking ideas?" Emily asked curiously making two bit grin.

"Oh no you don't. Don't be giving her anymore ideas." Everyone heard from the bathroom making emily and two bit start to chuckle about it.
