A Trip to the Vet and Cashing in on a Bet
It's been a week since Valentine's and our little bet. I still haven't cashed in on it yet, but this weekend I'm planning to do so. I enlisted Lucy and Ana to help me out, even though I already knew how I was going to dress my two boys. I just wanted their opinion on my choices because on one hand, I want them to be super embarrassed when they walk into McGinty's, yet on the other hand, I still want them to look sexy.
So this is what I was up to today, shopping at the mall with my two best friends. Connor and Murphy were trying to bug the hell out of me, so they can get just the slightest hint of what I'd force them to wear. I ignored them though, they weren't going to get anything out of me.
"So, what are we looking for?" Lucy asked as we went through the men's apparel.
"Well for Connor, I want to dress him up in something preppy," I said.
"Ha, I can see Connor wearing something like that. I bet he'd look adorable," Ana said.
"Yeah, me too. You're really taking them out of their natural element," Lucy said.
"Yep, that's the point. They never wear anything other than there black or gray t-shirts with jeans and their pea coat. Sometimes they wear their long sleeved black shirt, but only when it's cold out. I want to see them in something else," I said.
"It's definitely going to be something. I can't wait to see them in whatever we get them," Ana said.
"Yeah, me too," I said.
"I wish I could come, but I'm trying to stay away from bars and stuff until the baby comes," Lucy said.
"Yeah, that sucks. I'll make sure to fill you in at work. Maybe I'll get a disposable camera and get some pictures," Ana said.
"I so want to see that. So, what are you planning for Murphy?" Lucy asked.
"I was thinking something that says rocker or motorcycle dude," I shrugged.
"A motorcycle guy!? Why?" Ana laughed.
"Murphy's so dark and mysterious sometimes, he just reminds me of a guy who'd hop on a motorcycle and ride for miles without a care in the world," I said.
"Hmm… Yeah, I can see that," she said.
"Yeah, that definitely seems like Murphy," Lucy said.
"So, do you think you guys can help me find the perfect items?" I asked.
They looked at each other, then looked at me with a smile on their face, and said, "Oh yeah…"
We shopped for hours on end and every time we found one thing, we'd find something else to go with my ingenious plan. The three of us were having a blast figuring out the right look for the two boys and we couldn't stop laughing at the thought of them in each item we picked up. They were definitely going to be uncomfortable in the outfits we picked out, but it's going to be so worth it in the end. Well, at least for me anyway.
Once we finished shopping for the items, we decided to head over to Fiona's Diner for a quick lunch. We haven't really been out together much since Lucy got married and Ana got engaged. All of our love lives have been blooming and I would have never thought the three of us would wind up like this. But I'm happy it did, we were all happy and in the best possible place in our lives.
"Hiya girls," Fiona said as she took a seat next to Ana.
"Hey… Are you on break?" Lucy asked.
"Yeah, I am. What do you guys want?" she asked.
"Just the usual," Ana said.
"Except for me, I want a turkey and ham sub with everything on it, please," Lucy said.
"Is that the baby talking?" Fiona giggled.
"Somewhat, but I'm also trying to eat a little heathy for him or her too."
"That's good. I'll be right back, I'm gonna let Serena know our order."
Fiona went to talk to her waitress, Serena, and we sat at the table making conversation.
"Speaking of the baby, how's he or she doing?" Ana asked.
"Well, he or she is giving me hell of morning sickness, but other than that, things have been pretty good," Lucy said.
"That's good," I said.
"Yeah, I can't wait to see this little bundle of joy," Lucy smiled.
"I bet you can't wait for this whole process to be over," Ana said.
"Yeah, that too."
We all laughed and Ana said, "Hey, Timi can I ask you for a favor?"
"Sure, what's up?" I asked.
"I made an appointment at the vet for a small checkup for Kong, but Steve has to work some overtime. I really don't want to go alone. So, can you come?"
"Yeah, sure. I love Kong."
"Thanks."
"No problem."
"How big is Kong now?" Lucy asked.
"He's getting pretty big. When he stands up, his paws just reach my shoulders," Ana said.
"Wow, and you're 5'6"."
"Yeah, I know and he's still kind of a puppy. He's going to be a big one."
"That's wild," I said.
"Yeah, but he's just the sweetest thing," Ana said.
"Yeah, he is. His tail's always wagging and he loves letting everyone pet him," Lucy said.
"Very true," I said.
"Hey, ya'll… Serena is getting our drinks and Charlie's making our food," Fiona said.
"Thanks Fiona," Ana said.
"No problem."
We continued to chat until the food arrived. We filled Fiona in on my bet with the boys and how I was cashing in on it. She wanted to see the final outcome, so we invited her to McGinty's tomorrow night. The boys are going to feel so uncomfortable tomorrow, but I call it payback for all the times they made me feel uncomfortable.
I headed home after lunch with the girls and I placed my bags in a secret place, so the boys wouldn't find it. I didn't know if they were coming over tonight, but just to be on the safe side, I did what I had to do. Since I had nothing better to do, I decided to hop in the shower and just relax. After my quick little shower, I decided to break out the notebook I bought a few days ago. I used to be an avid writer when I was younger, but once I got this job and moved to Boston, I really never got back into it. When I saw this awesome blue and white notebook at the store, my creative side crawled out of me and I had to buy it.
And since I bought it, I haven't written one thing in the notebook. Today, I was determined to at least put something in it. Maybe one day it could turn into the greatest novel in history. Okay maybe that's a far stretch, but who knows. I tapped my pen on the blank page before me and thought about what to write. Should it be something nonfiction or something fiction. That's a hard decision to make, I could write about meeting the boys, but I really don't want my life story out there. Maybe fictional would be the right path to go.
I tried thinking of something interesting, but I wasn't coming up with anything. I just kept squashing every idea I'd think of. My apartment door opened and the boys came waltzing in with small smile adorning their faces. Murphy was carrying a large box of pizza while Connor was carrying a case of Guinness.
"Hi, lass we brought dinner," Murphy said.
"Thanks guys," I said.
"No problem lass. We figured we'd give ye a break from cooking us a meal," Connor said as he followed his brother into the kitchen.
I followed after them, watching how comfortable they were in my kitchen. Sometimes it's hard to realize how far our relationship has come, but when I see things like this, it makes me smile.
"What ye thinking about girl?" Murphy asked.
"How comfortable you two are in my kitchen, or apartment for that matter."
"I guess we have gotten accustomed to ye place. We almost know it as well as our loft," Connor said.
"Aye, I never really taught about it, but I guess we have," Murphy said.
"Yeah, it's kind of cool," I said.
Murphy pulled me towards him and said, "It is. I'm glad we've come dis far."
"I couldn't agree wit ye more Murph," Connor said as he grabbed the two of them a can of beer.
Murphy planted a kiss on my lips and said, "What ye writing about girl?"
I looked down at the notebook in my hand and said, "Nothing yet. I can't seem to come up with a topic."
"We can help ye wit dat lass," Connor said as he threw an arm over my shoulders.
"I don't think you can," I said.
"Ye tink we're dat bad at coming up wit something?"
"Yes, Connor, I do."
"Give me brother and I some credit girl. We can come up wit someting awesome," Murphy said.
"Tell me what you've got," I said.
"How about someting wit twins?" Murphy said.
"Murph, ye making us look bad," Connor said.
"How?"
"Twins? Why would she want to write about twins?"
"She'll be tinking of us."
"I tink she'd rather not have a story about us."
"I guess dats true. So what do ye have in mind den, Con?"
"I tink she should write someting wit action."
"Like one of ye Charlie Bronson movies."
"Yeah."
"Dat's schtupid."
"It isn't as schtupid as ye idea."
"Guys… I don't need your help. I can do this on my own. It's just something I'll be doing on my downtime anyway, it's not important," I said.
"I guess me girl, but we still like to help," Murphy said.
"I know, and I love you two for trying to help."
"We know, we love ye too, lass," Connor said.
They each took their turn to place a kiss on my lips and then we dug into the pizza they brought for dinner. The boys were going to town on their pizza and they were both on their third can of beer. They'll probably finish that whole twelve pack by tomorrow, probably even tonight.
"So lass, what did ye get us?" Connor asked.
"What?" I asked.
"For tomorrow. De bet," Murphy said.
I smirked at the two men in front of me and said, "I'm not telling you."
"Come on lass. We want to know what we're getting ourselves into," Connor said.
"It's a surprise you two. Believe me, it's nothing to bad. I made sure you two will still be decently comfortable tomorrow."
"Dat doesn't sound to reassuring girl," Murphy said.
"I know," I said as I threw my paper plate away.
"Come on lass. Dis is going to be torture," Connor said.
"Nope, not telling," I said.
They groaned and I laughed at them. They were such children sometimes, but that's what makes them so adorable.
"By the way guys, I'm going to be going to the vet with Ana tomorrow," I said.
"Ye sick lass," Connor snickered.
I hit him on the shoulder and he said, "Ow, lass."
"I'm not an animal," I said.
"Ye sure? Ye have dose adorable puppy dog eyes and dat cute little bunny nose," Connor said.
"Aye, and de way ye yawn reminds me of a hamster," Murphy said chuckling.
"You two are horrible," I said.
"Aww… come on lass. Ye got to admit ye adorable," Connor said as he nuzzled his face into my cheek.
"Fine, you two are off the hook for those comments because they are kind of sweet, but you're lucky," I said.
"We are," Murphy said with a smirk.
I rolled my eyes and we finished cleaning up our mess from dinner. We went to bed after a few hours of hanging out together and I couldn't wait for tomorrow to come, so I could see my plan come to life.
I woke up the next day and the boys were gone, but they did make some coffee before they left, so that was cool. I quickly ate some breakfast and then got ready to head over to Ana's house. After I finished getting ready, I took the scenic route to Ana's. Since it was almost March, the leaves were starting to grow back just a tad and it wasn't as nippy outside like a few weeks ago. I arrived at Ana's place and knocked on her front door. I heard a loud bark sound through the small house and the door opened with a smiling Ana.
"Hey, Timi. I'm just finishing up," she said.
I went in and Kong jumped up on me, leaning his front legs on my shoulders.
"Whoa, boy. You did get big," I said.
"Wow, he's taller than you. That's a funny picture," Ana said.
"Ugh, okay down boy."
I pushed the large pup off of me and he let out a soft whimper. I stroked behind his ears and he started wagging his tail with a happy pant.
"I'll be right back, okay?" Ana said.
"Yeah, take your time," I said.
"Thanks."
I continued playing with Kong until Ana finished up. He brought me one of his toys and I tried to grab it from him. He started playing tug of war and honestly he was much stronger than I was, but I put up a good fight. I finally let it go and he shook the toy in his mouth.
Ana came out of her room and said, "Okay, I'm ready."
"Okay," I said.
She grabbed Kong's leash from the hook by the front door, and placed it on his collar. We went outside and as soon as we headed over to the car, Kong got excited.
"He likes going for rides?" I asked.
"He loves it. Whenever Steve and I go out, he whimpers and cries so we'd take him with us. If it's usually a fast errand we bring him along, but if it's going to be long, we leave him at home," Ana said.
"That's cool."
"Yeah, he's a really silly dog."
She opened the back for Kong to sit and he hopped right in without any hesitation. I got in the passenger side and Ana got in on the driver's side. Kong put his head between the seats and was panting heavily with excitement. We drove for about twenty minutes until Ana pulled into a medium sized parking lot that was connected to the local animal hospital. Ana got Kong out and we went into the place. There was about five people in the waiting room with their pets.
"Hi, I'm Ana Fleur. I made an appointment for my dog, Kong," Ana said to the receptionist.
"Yes, I have you right here. I just need you to fill out these forms and we'll call you when the doctors ready," the receptionist lady said.
"Thank you."
Ana handed me Kong's leash and she grabbed the clipboard from the lady. We sat at some opened seats and I held on to Kong while she filled out the paper work. Kong was looking around the room, probably trying to figure out where he was and why there were so many other animals here.
"Can I put you as one of the emergency contacts?" Ana asked.
"Yeah, sure," I said.
"Thanks, Timi."
"No problem, Ana."
I started to pet Kong as we waited and I looked around the waiting room. Everyone seemed calm and collected, even the pets looked calm and stable.
"Hi, cute dog you have there," a man said as he held a small yorkie.
"Thanks it's my friends. Your dog is cute too," I said.
"Thanks, this is Jovi," he said.
"Like Bon Jovi?"
"Yep, pretty sweet."
"It is pretty cool."
"What's his name?"
"Kong."
"Like King Kong."
I chuckled and said, "Yep."
He chuckled too and said, "I'm Dillan."
"Timi," I said.
"So, are you single?"
"No I'm not."
"Oh, I should have known a pretty girl like yourself wouldn't be single."
I blushed and Ana swooped in to save me, "Yeah, she's in a pretty serious relationship. But it was nice meeting you."
"Uh, yeah, you too. I guess," he said looking confused and walked away.
"Timi, stop flirting with everyone," Ana said with a smirk.
"I'm not," I sighed.
She chuckled and said, "I know. You just keep illuminating that cute little aura you have and all the guys seem to be flocking to you. Those two Irishmen certainly brought something out of you."
I put my head in my hands and said, "That so uncomfortable."
"Ha-ha, you're so adorable."
I groaned and then I felt a wet tongue licking the part of my face not covered. I giggled at the dog and pushed him away softly.
"See even the dog loves you," Ana sad.
"Oh, shut up," I said.
After a few other patients came and went, the vet came out and it was finally time for Kong's appointment. We went into the examination room and the first thing he did was weigh Kong on a scale.
"He's 135 pounds," the vet said.
"Is that good, Dr. Reynolds?" Ana asked.
"Yep, seems average for him at this age," he said.
"Good."
The vet patted the metal table and said, "Hop up here Kong."
Kong jumped right onto the table and sat down. Dr. Reynolds looked him over and checked everything from head to toe. It was a quick examination and everything turned out fine. Kong was as healthy as he should be. The vet gave Kong a special treat after his checkup was over and we went back out to the receptionist, so Ana could pay the bill. We went back to Ana's place and she offered to make some lunch and I gladly accepted.
"So, are you ready for tonight?" Ana asked with a smile.
"Oh yeah, I can't wait to get my hands on them tonight," I said with my own smile.
"I meant your bet. Not tonight when you three are home alone."
"Very funny… You know what I meant."
"Yeah, yeah, I know. I can't wait to see them."
"Yeah, it's going to be so much fun."
"They're going to be so uncomfortable tonight."
"Yeah, I can see their faces when I hand them their clothes for the night."
Ana laughed and said, "That will be priceless."
"Oh yeah," I said.
We continued to eat the lunch she made for us and after we finished, I headed back to my place. I couldn't wait to put my plan into action. I think I was practically skipping back to my place, I was just so excited. Sometimes it's fun to torture your obnoxious boyfriends, but they're adorably obnoxious, which makes most of the teasing pretty fun.
I got to my place and found the twins lounging on my couch, drinking their Guinness in only their underwear.
"Ye see soemting ye like me girl," Murphy smirked.
"Something like that," I said smiling.
"We didn't snoop we promise," Connor said.
"Are you sure?" I asked.
"Aye, we did not snoop. Even dough we really wanted to," Murphy said.
"We each took a shower already. We washed most of de meat smell off of us," Connor said.
"That's good. Maybe we should start getting ready now," I said as I looked at the clock.
"I don't wanna, girl. We're going to look ridiculous," Murphy said.
"I promise it's not that bad Murphy. You two will be fine," I said.
"So our dignity will remain in tack den?" Connor asked.
"I'm sure most of your dignity will be fine."
"Dat's reassuring," Connor said as he huffed out a snort.
"We are going to be the laughing stock at de bar tonight, Con," Murphy said.
"We sure are brother," Connor said.
"Come on guys, it'll be fine. Now come with me," I said.
They followed me into the bedroom and I took out the bags from the clothing store. I handed one of the bags to Murphy and one of them to Connor. They placed them on my bed and took out the items from their bags.
"Lass… Ye didn't…" Connor said as he looked at his clothes.
The smile on my face grew wider and I said, "I did."
"De fuck Con… Ye a prep school student now, going to play a few rounds of golf," Murphy said as he chuckled.
"Ye should talk, motorcycle Murph," Connor said as he chucked one of Murphy's clothing items at him.
"At least me outfit is cooler den yours," Murphy said.
"Fuck ye."
Murphy made a loud humph and went to the bathroom to put on his clothes. Connor just looked at his new clothes with a pout on his face. I hugged him from behind and said, "Don't worry Connor, it's only for tonight. Plus, I think you'll look hot."
"I guess so lass. Just doesn't feel like me," he said.
"I know, but maybe you'll like it."
"I doubt dat lass."
He turned around and looked down at me. I smiled up at him and said, "Just give it a try."
He nodded and said, "I will, but only for ye."
I kissed him and he kissed me back.
"Dese pants are fucking tight. Who in de hell wears dis shit!?" I heard Murphy say behind us.
We looked over and found Murphy struggling to adjust himself in the tight leather jeans I bought for him.
"Ye look fucking ridiculous Murph," Connor said laughing hysterically, his eyes crinkling in the process.
"Shut up… Ye going to look just as ridiculous as me," Murphy said.
Connor glared at Murphy as he passed by to go put on his new clothes.
"Dese feel weird, girl," Murphy said as he shuffled over to me.
"I know, hopefully you'll get used to them by tonight. At least you only have to wear them once," I said.
"Aye."
He buttoned up the last few buttons on the navy blue dress shirt I got him and then threw on the leather jacket which had angel wings on the back.
"Ye know dis jacket's pretty cool," Murphy said as he looked at it in the mirror.
"Yeah, I thought it was neat. I thought you'd be able to rock it pretty well," I said.
He grabbed the lapels of his leather jacket and said, "How do I look, girl?"
"You look absolutely sexy," I said.
He smiled and said, "Thank you."
He gave me a kiss and I returned it.
"I look like a fucking country club member," Connor said.
He was wearing a light blue polo shirt, khaki pants with a light belt, and light brown boat shoes.
"Ha, ye look fucking stuck up," Murphy giggled like a school boy.
"Shut it Murph, ye look like ye belong in a motorcycle gang," Connor said.
"Well, I'm cooler den ye are," Murphy retorted.
"Well at least I look sophisticated."
"Pfft… Ye ain't fooling anyone even in dat getup."
Connor went to start a fight with his brother, but I stepped in and said, "I still have to do your hair."
"Our hair!?" they said in unison.
"Come on guy's… The hair needs work too," I said.
"I don't want ye to ruin me hair," Murphy said as he held it.
"Don't worry, it's not like I'm making a drastic change to it. It's just a little adjustment. I promise you'll be able to fix it," I said.
"All right fine, but it better be good," Connor said.
"It will," I said.
I sat them down and broke out the jar of gel I bought from the store.
"Ye putting gel in our hair?" Murphy asked looking skeptically at the product.
"Don't worry, I won't put in a lot. You two can wash it out later," I said.
"Eh… okay den," Murphy said.
I started on Connor's hair first. I put in some gel and spiked his hair up like normal, but in a more casual looking way. I loved his hair up, but it's usually messy and untamed. This time I put a little work into, making it look somewhat dressy. After I finished making Connors hair decently nice, I went to work on Murphy's. The whole time I worked on Murphy's, he was mumbling and pouting like a little boy. I put his bangs up and over to the side, giving it a slight puffy and curvy look. The rest of his hair I combed back a bit and put a little gel in to make it stay. He kind of looked like a teenage rebel from the 1960's.
Once I finished, I gave them a handheld mirror and Murphy looked at his first.
"I look like I'm ready to take a hit out on somebody," he said while turning his head side to side.
"Ye do," Connor laughed as he took the mirror away.
He looked at it like Murphy and said, "I look even preppier than before."
"You look fine. You both do," I said with a laugh.
"Easy for you to say girl," Murphy said with a soft glare.
"Come on, it's fine. I'm going to get dressed and don't mess up your look," I said.
"Yes ma'am," they both said sarcastically.
I rolled my eyes at them and went to get ready for tonight. I threw on a simple red dress shirt with a black skirt that went just past mid-thigh, and paired it with my short heeled black stilettos. I went out to the living to find the boys sitting grumpily on the couch.
"Come on you two grumps," I said.
They looked over at me and gave me a once over.
"Well, if dat's what we're going out wit, den I'd wear anyting ye want me too," Connor said.
"I couldn't agree wit ye more brother," Murphy said with a grin.
"Okay, quit your staring it's weird," I said.
Connor smirked and said, "Ye like it lass."
I paid no attention to them and I walked out the door with my coat in hand, hearing the boys snicker behind me.
We arrived at McGinty's and as soon as we walked through the door the whole place just stared at the twins in their new attire. A few seconds later the bar erupted in an uproar of laughter. They huffed and walked over to the bar with me.
"Oh, you two look fucking stupid. I can't believe she got you two into those clothes. Holy shit, this is awesome," Rocco said with pure laughter.
"Shut up Roc… Dis is one of de most embarrassing moments in our life," Connor said.
"You did real good Timi. They look funny as hell," Rocco said still laughing.
"Thanks, I tried to make them, them, but still different," I said.
"Yeah, I can totally see that."
Doc came over to get the boys drinks and said, "Ye two look fu… fu…fucking… ridiculous. Ye two s…s…sure have a…s…s…smart girl…Fuck! Ass!"
"They sure do, Fuck Ass!" Rocco said as he sat back on the stool he was occupying earlier.
"Eh, dis was de worst bet we've ever made," Murphy said.
"Aye, we shouldn't have agreed to dis," Connor said shaking his head.
I planted a kiss on both of their cheeks and got a small smile out of them.
"Don't be embarrassed. "But ye adorable when ye are"." I said in the best Irish accent I could muster.
"Ye evil woman, using our words against us," Murphy said.
"Aye, and ye need to work on ye accent, lass," Connor said.
"I'll try me best," I giggled.
Connor poked my side with a wry smirk and said, "Dat was a little better."
Doc brought the boy their pint of beers and he brought me some water. I was watching the bar interact lively with each other, especially Connor, Murphy, and Rocco smack dab in the middle of it. They were all so close here and it was fun to see a small little group of people in one little pub, feeling like a giant family.
"So did you learn any more proverbs Doc?" Rocco asked.
"What?" Doc asked with confusion.
Everyone started chuckling.
"Aye, like when de going gets tough, keep ye enemies closer," Murphy said around his cigarette.
"Don't count ye chickens before dey fall far from the tree," Connor said.
Everyone busted out in laughter and I shook my head with a soft chuckle. They could be so mean to Doc sometimes, but I know they are just messing with him to have a little fun.
"Hey Timi," I heard Ana say behind me.
"Hi Ana," I said.
"Hi guys," she said.
"Hello dere, Ana," they said.
"You two look really good," she snickered.
"Don't remind us," Connor said as he picked at the collar of his polo shirt.
"We did a good job at picking these outfits."
"We did," I said.
"We are going to burn dese when we're done," Murphy said.
"Maybe someting even worse den burning dem," Connor said.
"Hey, can I get some pictures of you?" Ana asked.
"Ye want to document de worse fashion choice we have worn?" Connor asked.
"Come on, Lucy wants to see it and maybe you two will look back on it and have a laugh."
"Fine, but dis doesn't get out of our immediate circle," Murphy said.
"Fair enough," Ana said with a shrug.
Ana took out her camera and we all posed for photos. A couple of photos turned out to be a whole photo shoot at the bar. Rocco got in a few and then Ana got in a few. We were having a blast and I think Connor and Murphy even forgot about their outfits for a while. We spent the rest of the night having a blast with each other, even Fiona and Dave stopped by and hung out with us. Eventually it was really late and everyone started trickling out of the bar.
The three of us got home and dressed down to our skivvies. We hopped into bed and Connor said, "Ye know lass, de outfits weren't actually dat bad."
"Really!? So you'd where them again?" I asked.
"Hell no lass! Are ye insane!?"
I laughed and said, "Just kidding."
"But ye did a really great job at cashing in on ye bet me girl. Ye seem to be de perfect match for us MacManus twins," Murphy said with a smirk.
"Aye, ye sure can handle yeself well. We'll have to make sure we win more bets," Connor said.
"You can try," I said.
"Ye tink ye good, lass?"
"I know it," I said with a smirk.
"She sure is cocky, Con," Murphy said.
"She sure is. We'll have to break it out of her," Connor said.
"Mmm-hmm, most definitely."
"You two are silly," I said.
"But ye bring it out of us," Connor said and kissed my cheek.
"I'm glad I can," I said.
"Us too, girl," Murphy said, placing a kiss on my other cheek.
"Goodnight boys. Thanks for doing this," I said.
"It was no problem lass," Connor said.
"We'd do anyting for ye," Murphy said.
"I know," I said as I drifted off to sleep.
As I drifted off, I faintly heard the brothers say, "Goodnight, ár Grá."
