Hi lovlies! Heres another filler chapter, but hopefully you all enjoy it! xo ~Alex
Amber ruffled her hair as she looked over herself in her compact mirror.
"Will you quit looking at yourself and tell your cousin to hurry up?" Chase asked. 'We're going to be late for school." he huffed.
"Aww, relax smarty pants, your chemistry homework will be there even if we are a couple minutes late." Amber teased before closing her mirror and sticking it in her backpack. Adam walked in looking around for something before spotting a beaker on the island in the lab.
"This will be the perfect glass for my smoothie!" he smiled before Chase shook his head and snatched the glass beaker out of his brother's hands.
"This is not empty!" Chase said. "It's housing thousands of metallic nano bots." Chase told Adam, who looked slightly confused.
"Chase, there's nothing in there." Adam pointed out.
"The nanobots are microscopically small." Chase explained. "You aren't able to see them." Chase added.
"But your microscopically small and i can see you." Adam laughed as Leigh walked into the lab with a frown on her face.
"Has anyone seen my Kylie liquid lipstick?" she asked as she looked around the lab.
"Wanna borrow mine?" Amber asked as she pulled a pink tinged tube out of her backpack. Leigh looked at the color and scrunched her nose at it. "What? Not greige enough for you?" Amber laughed, knowing Leigh's taste in lipstick differed from her own. Leigh's eyes lit up as she spotted the familiar tube under a table in the lab.
"Found it!" She smiled before Chase rolled his eyes at the two girls.
"Leigh will you explain to your boyfriend how the nanobots work?' Chase asked, too annoyed to deal with his brother.
"They're like teenie tiny doctors that go into the body and take out diseased cells." Leigh explained.
"That still doesn't explain why i can't see them." Adam pointed out.
"Theyre so tiny that they're invisible to the human eye." Leigh said before grabbing a pair of goggles and handing them to Adam. He put them on and his mouth fell open in awe as he looked at the beaker.
"Woah, look at the little guys go!" He said before pulling the glasses off. "I'm gonna go eat some weird shit and then see if these guys can find them!" Adam exclaimed before Chase stopped him.
"These are valuable," Chase told him. "You can't just waste them on your iron stomach." Chase sighed before putting the beaker back. Adam looked over at Leigh who shook her head.
"You heard him." She told him causing Adam to frown.
"Fine." Adam groaned before grabbing Leigh's hand and pulling her out of the lab.
"So what's got your tighty whities in a twist?" Amber asked Chase as he gathered his things for school
"What are you talking about?" Chase asked her.
"You just seem a lot more uptight than usual." Amber pointed out. "I know we're not exactly nice to each other but.. I just wanted to see if you were okay." She told him.
"Really?" Chase asked before Amber nodded.
"We may not get along, but you're a good guy when it counts and i just wanted to check and make sure you're okay." Amber said, catching Chase off guard.
"Wow," Chase said, slightly stunned. "Thanks , but i'm alright." He told her.
"Alright." Amber sighed before making her way out of the lab, Chase following close after her.
*************"I'm telling you Leigh, something's wrong with nerdboy." Amber told her cousin as they stood at Leigh's locker.
"I think he's just got a lot going on." Leigh said, knowing Amber was right but she didn't want to confirm Amber's suspicions before her phone went off. Amber smiled at her phone before replying to whoever had messaged her. "Whats got you all smiley?" Leigh asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Matt Flores wants to have lunch with me." Amber smiled.
"Wait, you're going after high school guys now?" Leigh asked, knowing Amber to be particularly picky with guys.
"Yeah," She sighed. "I mean i kinda have nothing else better to do right now, so why not have boys fawn over me and buy me food?" She laughed.
"Not the worst idea i've ever heard." Leigh shrugged.
"The selection here is pretty terrible though." Amber added. "I mean in L.A guys work out and they tan and have skin care routines." She pointed out. "Here you're lucky if the guy showers on a regular basis." She added with a scrunched nose.
"Yeah." Leigh said with a frown, knowing Mission Creek wasn't exactly hot guy central. "But Matt's a babe." Leigh said to Amber.
"Right? He's a football player and has the prettiest blue eyes." She smiled. "I mean he's no Channing Tatum, but he's cute." She added before Leigh's phone went off. Leigh looked at it before groaning.
"Shit, i'd told Scott i'd help him study for his Geometry test." Leigh said before shoving her phone back into her pocket. "I'll see you later?" She said before taking off towards the library. Amber sighed before spotting Adam and Chase and decided to make her way over towards them.
"Hey guys!" Amber said sweetly.
"Wow, you're pretty chipper." Adam pointed out.
"Yeah, it's weird, but since i don't have the show anymore, i'm way less stressed out." Amber said. "All i have to do is focus on school, and it's actually not that hard." She laughed.
"Thats awesome." Adam told her and Amber nodded before a few spot lights began circle around the lobby of the school.
Ladies and gentlemen" A voice said over the loudspeaker, "introducing the principal, a four-foot-eleven spitfire from portland, maine, terri perry!" The announcer said before principal Perry made her way out in a sweatband, high fiving kids as she made her way towards the middle of the lobby. "Just thought I'd spice up the morning announcements." she smiled before taking off the sweatband and flinging into the crowd. "And i'm sure you're all wondering why Dewy the Dingo is here." Perry stated as she pat the mascot costume on the shoulder. "Every year before the big homecoming game against the deerfield high leaping' llamas, some punk manages to steal dewey." Perry explained. "No matter where i put him, they find a way to snatch him." She added. " and to prevent Dewy getting stolen, I'm assigning you mouth breathers to round-the-clock shifts." Perry smiled as someone handed her a clipboard and Perry swiftly handed it off to Chase. "Now if you'll excuse me, i'm gonna go hit the hot tub." She added. "Heard a few things pop when i made my way out here." She said to Amber before disappearing to her office.
"That woman just keeps getting more and more disgusting." Amber said with a scrunched nose.
"She put us in groups of three and i'm stuck with you two." Chase grumbled.
"Oh trust me, we're not thrilled about being forced to hang out with you either." Amber sighed as she crossed her arms.
****************"Okay, so you need to use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the missing side." Leigh explained to Seth as they sat in the library. Seth groaned and clutched his beanie clad head.
"I don't get why i need to find the missing side." Seth asked. "Can't i just measure it?" He questioned before Leigh shook her head.
"Unfortunately that's not how it works." Leigh told him before Seth sighed and leaned back in his seat.
"Can we take a break?" He asked. "My head hurts." He groaned before Leigh let out a sigh before nodding. Seth got up and began to make his way out the back door of the library. Leigh looked at him confused before quickly gathering her things and following Seth out of the library and into the cafeteria. "Woah.." Seth said as he looked over at the groups of students setting up dominios.
"What is this?" Leigh asked before Seth shrugged.
"I'm not sure, but it's so freaking cool!" He exclaimed before running towards a group of his friends.
"Wait! What about your math test?" Leigh called out, not receiving a response from Seth, who was now sitting on the floor with his friends who were stacking dominos. Leigh sighed before spotting Bree and Leo talking to Caitlyn. Leigh swiftly made her way over. "Does anyone know what's going on in here?" Leigh asked the group.
"It's the domino domination." Caitlyn told her as she pointed to the sign hanging on the wall. "Can't you read Leigh?" She spat before Leigh sucked in a large breath.
"Caitlyn," Bree said as she put a hand on her friend's shoulder. "Do you remember what i told you about antagonizing Leigh?" Bree asked her.
"Wear shoes i can run in?" Caitlyn asked before Bree sighed and shook her head, deciding to abandon the subject. "Anyways, do you guys want to help me?" Caitlyn asked. "My team bailed on me, they couldn't handle the pressure." Caitlyn added.
"The pressure of what?" Leigh asked before Caitlyn gave Leigh a hard glare. Bree pinched Leigh before Leigh shook her head. "I'll pass." She added before stepping away from the group. Bree quickly grabbed Leigh and pulled her to the side.
"Can you please help?" Bree asked before Leigh looked at Bree like she was crazy.
"No fucking way." Leigh stated. "I'm not helping the psycho who tried to steal my boyfriend!" She exclaimed. "She still obsessively likes all of Adam's social media posts." Leigh added.
"She's harmless and you know it." Bree told her. "Please?" Bree asked with a pout. "Do it for your best friend in the whole wide world?" She added, causing Leigh to sigh.
"Fine." Leigh stated before Bree smiled and pulled Leigh back towards the group.
"We're happy to help." Bree told Caitlyn who beamed at them.
"Ecstatic." Leigh grumbled.
"I'll help on one condition." Leo said. "I want to be the one who knocks over the first domino." He told Caitlyn, who looked at him in shock.
" You can't be the tipper! The tipper gets all the glory. I'm always the tipper!" Caitlyn protested. Leo shrugged before walking off. Caitlyn sighed before pulling him back towards the group. "Fine, you can be the tipper." Caitlyn sighed as Leo smiled victoriously at her.
*******************"This is such a waste of time!" Chase groaned as he stood with Amber and Adam around the dingo costume. "I could be working on homework." He sighed before Amber rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, well i could be getting a manicure but you don't see me crying about it." Amber said to Chase.
"Yeah, and i could be standing in front of a mirror squishing my face to how i'll look when i'm old." Adam said before pressing his hands to his face, causing the skin to look floppy and saggy. "This is a week before my fifty-third birthday." He stated before Amber looked at him confused.
"I still don't understand how he's with Leigh." Amber said to Chase.
"It's a mystery to us all." He told her. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom, just watch the dingo." He added before walking off.
"Alright, hurry back or you won't get to see my birthday present!" Adam called after him. "Facelift!" He sang as he looked at Amber and pulled the skin on his face taught. Amber rolled her eyes before a guy approached the two.
"Hey, i'm new here and my trail mix got stuck in the vending machine." He told the two. "Is there a trick to that?" He laughed.
"Trail mix, nice choice it's in season." Adam smiled before making his way over towards the vending machine in question.
"Uh, Hi i'm Griffyn." The guy said as he stuck his hand out towards Amber.
"Amber." She smiled as she shook his hand.
"Wow, sorry, i just didn't know my new school would have such a beautiful girl attending." He laughed as Amber blushed.
"Aww, how sweet." She smiled. "You're not so bad yourself." she added as she took a step closer towards Griffyn. "We should grab lunch." Amber told him.
"That would be awesome." Griffyn smiled. "Let me give you my number." He told her as Amber pulled out her phone. "Okay, it's five, six, two, seven, three, eight, seven." Griffyn said, his voice growing distant as Amber eagerly typed his number into her phone.
"Adam, Amber," Chase said, catching their attention. "What happened to the Dingo?" He asked.
"I don't know, i was helping the new kid with the vending machine." Adam explained, a bag of trail mix in hand.
"I was getting his number." Amber smiled. "His name is Griffyn, isn't that so hot?" She gushed, causing the two boys to twist their faces in disgust.
"There's no new kid named Griffyn!" Chase yelled. "He just said that so he could distract you and take the dingo!" he added. Adam groaned and Amber frowned.
"No, Griffyn and i had a connection." Amber said as she looked at her phone. "See i'll call him and get him to bring the Dingo back." She said before dialing Griffyn's number and holding the phone up to her ear. A frown quickly over took Amber's face before she hung up the phone.
"He gave you the number to a pizza place didn't he?" Chase asked.
"No." Amber said with a frown before sighing. "Ugh he was so cute." She whined.
"We have to get the Dingo back before Perry finds out!" Chase exclaimed. "Ugh, i can't believe you two!" Chase exclaimed.
"We'll just get the best thief we know to steal it back." Amber shrugged before Adam high fived her.
"Who?" Chase asked before Amber sighed.
"Leigh!" Adam exclaimed. "She swipes your stuff all the time with out you noticing."
Adam laughed. "That phone charger you've been looking for the past four months is under Leigh's bed." Adam added.
"Do you really think that Leigh is going to want to break into a school and steal a mascot costume?" Chase asked before Adam sighed and made his way into the cafeteria. He quickly spotted Leigh setting up dominos and ran over towards her.
"Wanna go steal something?" He asked.
"Yes!" Leigh exclaimed before dropping the dominos and pulling Adam out of the cafeteria with her. "What are we stealing?" She asked. "Perry's car keys? Oooh! Are we taking stuff out of Chase's locker to hide?" She questioned.
"What?" Chase asked before Leigh spotted Chase and smiled at him.
"I mean, i would never do such a thing." Leigh said before Chase rolled his eyes.
"Look, we need to you to sneak into Deerfield and steal the dingo back." Amber told her.
"Awesome!" Leigh smiled.
"And punch Griffyn while you're at it." Amber added before Leigh nodded.
"Get the dingo and hit Griffyn. Got it." She said before digging her car keys out of her backpack. "C'mon Adam, let's go do something illegal!" Leigh sang as she pulled her boyfriend towards the exit.
"I have a feeling we're going to regret sending those two." Amber said to Chase.
"Oh yeah, that wasn't our best idea." Chase sighed.
******************Leigh squatted behind a trashcan, Adam next to her as they tried to stay low.
"Have you guys found the Dingo suit yet?" Chase asked over the com set.
"What about Griffyn, did you break his face yet?" Amber asked before Chase shoved her away from his ear piece.
"No, we've checked everywhere but the locker room." Adam said to his brother.
"It has to be in there, but since every one's out at gym class they have it locked." Leigh sighed.
"Ugh, maybe we should just abort the mission." Chase sighed.
"No, i can get in, it's just going to be a pain in the ass." Leigh explained. "But i can do it." She said.
"Yeah Chase, Have faith in Leigh." Amber said, causing Chase to give her a soft glare. Leigh pulled a bobby pin out of her pocket before making her way towards the locker room door.
"Just keep watch." Leigh told him as she bent the bobby pin out of shape and began to pick at the lock on the door. Adam looked around, making sure the coast was clear.
"Are you almost done?" Adam asked.
"Yeah, this pin in here is jammed." Leigh said as she continued to twist the bobby pin in the keyhole.
"Hey!" A loud voice yelled catching the teens attention. They looked up to see a large blonde guy making their way towards them.
"Nothing to see here!" Adam said as the blonde made his way closer.
"What do you think you two are doing?" he asked.
"Listen sir, we are so sorry-" Adam started before Leigh stood up from her crouched position.
"What does it look like we're doing? We're two horny teenagers trying to get it on in the boys locker room." Leigh explained, causing Adam to go pale.
"You two are coming with me." the teacher said as he went grab Leigh's wrist. Leigh slipped herself under his arm before harshly pinching the pressure point in his neck, causing him to fall unconscious. Adam caught him before he fell to the floor. "Just set him right there." Leigh said as she blew a piece of hair out of her face.
"Leigh!" Adam hissed as she went back to picking the lock. "You can't just do that little soft spot thing and knock people unconscious!" he scolded softly as the lock on the door clicked.
"He'll be fine." Leigh told him as she pushed the door open and walking into the locker room, Adam following close behind. "Alright, we've finally made it into the locker room." Leigh said into her earpiece as her and Adam began to search through the locker room.
"What about Griffyn? Find him yet?" Amber asked.
"Will you shut up about Griffyn?" Chase exclaimed causing Leigh to roll her eyes before Adam pulled a locker door off of its hinges.
"Oops" Adam said before putting the door in the locker. Leigh kept looking around the locker room before she heard Adam gasp. "I found Dewy!" He said causing Leigh to turn and see Adam pulling the Dingo costume out of a laundry bin.
"Awesome! Now get out of there!" Chase told them as Adam tucked the costume under his arm and Leigh pulled him towards the exit.
***********Chase and Amber Anxiously paced around the school lobby, waiting for Leigh and Adam to return with the dingo costume.
"Ugh, knowing those two they probably stopped for a burger on the way here." Amber huffed as she flipped her hair
"Right? And they're probably parked in the parking lot making out in the back of Leigh's jeep." Chase frowned as he felt a tap on his shoulder, he turned around only to be met with the face of Dewy the Dingo.
"Don't worry i'm not a real Dingo." Adam's voice said, muffled by the mascot head.
"Adam why are you wearing the costume?" Amber asked before turning to Leigh "Why did you let him put it on?" She questioned causing Leigh to shrug.
"Amber, you can't have a dingo costume and not put it on." Adam stated "It's an unwritten rule, sort of like how you don't have to wash your legs or feet because the shower water trickles down." He added before Leigh frowned and put a hand on Adam's arm.
"Oh no, Adam, that's not how that works." Leigh sighed
"Yeah, you picked a real winner." Chase pointed out before Leigh punched his shoulder.
"Quick, Perry's coming!" Amber hissed as Adam rushed to put the Dingo head back on and stood still, pretending the costume had never left the lobby.
"I just got off the phone with the principal over at deerfield." Perry said as she walked into the lobby "He said that someone stole their llama. I hope none of you were dumb enough to do that because it would be illegal, and I can't have johnny law breathing down my neck again!" Perry exclaimed.
"Again?" Chase asked.
"I'm on a lot of lists." Perry said before walking off Amber turned towards Leigh.
"Tell me you didn't." Amber said, slight panic in her voice.
"Oh but i did!" Leigh laughed. "We're giving Deerfield a taste of their own medicine." She smiled triumphantly.
"Adam!" Amber exclaimed "Why would you let her take the llama?" Amber hissed as he took the dingo head off.
"It was my idea." Adam said. "Deerfield takes our stuff, why can't we take theirs?" Adam asked.
"It's illegal!" Chase pointed out.
"It's only illegal if you get caught." Leigh pointed out.
"This is so not time for your delinquent logic!" Chase yelled before taking a deep breath. "Please tell me you didn't bring the llama here." Chase asked.
"Of course not, do you think i'm stupid?" Leigh asked.
"You're fucking something." Chase grumbled before Amber rolled her eyes.
"Just take us to the fucking llama." Amer sighed.
*************"You brought the llama to the lab?!" Chase exclaimed.
"I think he's so mad that his head might pop off." Amber whispered to Adam, who let out a chuckle at the idea.
"Yeah, he's the newest family member." Leigh said.
"His name's Lorenzo." Adam added with a smile before the llama leaned over towards Amber and licked a stripe up her face.
"Ew!" She screeched as she fanned at her face. "Get it out!" She yelled as she made her way towards the opposite side of the room.
"Aww, it just means that he likes you Amber." Leigh explained.
"I don't care what it means, his breath smells like a fucking toilet!" She yelled.
"You have to take him back." Chase stated.
"What? No way, i love him." Leigh said as she hugged the llama.
"Yeah, he's a part of this family Chase, whether you like it or not." Adam told his brother
who rolled his eyes before his phone went off.
"Oh, no. Its Our turn to watch the dingo." Chase sighed. "Principal perry thought we did such a good job, she rewarded us by giving us another shift!" Chase said to Amber and Adam.
"Ugh that woman is the worst!" Amber groaned as she ran a hand through her hair.
"I can't deal with the llama and go watch the dingo." Chase sighed.
"I'll stay with the llama." Leigh suggested.
"Ooh, me too, i wanna see what he looks like in socks." Adam smiled.
"No, no way, because it always starts out with socks, and then it ends up with a llama in ski pants on a trampoline, and no one wants to see that." Chase stated.
"Everyone wants to see that." Adam pointed out as Leigh nodded.
"He's right." Amber told Chase who sent her a soft glare.
"All the same, we're not doing it." Chase said. "You three Go take care of the dingo, and I'll fix this." Chase added.
"Fine, Just let me say goodbye to lorenzo llama." Adam sighed. " Who's a good boy? you're a good boy." Adam said as he ran a hand over the llama's head before kissing the llama's cheek.
"Bye Lorenzo, i'll miss you." Leigh sighed before also pressing a kiss to the llama's cheek.
"Oh dear god, c'mon." Amber sighed as she pulled the two away from the llama.
"I'll never forget you lorenzo!" Adam called out as Amber tugged him and Leigh out of the lab.
**************Leigh sat in front of the llama while Amber and Adam stood on either side of her.
"I'm bored!" Leigh groaned. "Let's go do something." She added as she tugged at Adam's sleeve.
"Sorry Gorgeous, Perry wants us to watch the llama." Adam told her before Leigh let out another loud groan. Chase ran up to the group, looking slightly frazzled
"Guys, we have a big problem." Chase said
"We? It's not our fault that your haircut makes you look like a lady golfer." Adam said
before earning a high five from Amber.
"What? No!" Chase said before shaking off the insult. "The llama ate all the nanobots!" Chase hissed.
"What?" Leigh exclaimed.
"Their biology is different from humans! there's no telling how it'll react!" Chase added before Leigh shook her head.
"Great job Chase you just killed Lorenzo!" Leigh exclaimed
"How dare you!" Adam said before pulling Leigh under his shoulder.
"Will you two stop?!" Chase exclaimed before principal Perry walked out into the lobby of the school, the llama following close behind.
"Why was the deerfield llama outside straddling my hatchback?" She asked before the group looked at each other anxiously.
"He's full of little tiny robots and you brought the thing here!" Amber hissed at Chase. "For the smartest man in the world, you sure are a fucking idiot." Amber huffed as Chase glared at her.
"Bet you wish you let Leigh and I dress him up now." Adam said to his brother who swiftly shoved his brother. Perry winced as the llama spit on her face.
"It's okay, i speak llama, it means he likes me." Perry smiled, nervousness lacing her voice.
"Llama spit when they want to pick a fight with other llamas." Leigh hissed to the group. "Lorenzo is pissed." She added.
"Oh this is bad." Amber sighed as the llama began to pull at the reins that Perry was holding.
'Woah, he's getting a little frisky." Perry laughed anxiously. "Better grab my lasso." Perry said before deserting the llama and going to her office.
"We have to do something." Chase said
"The llama ate the nanobots on your watch." Amber pointed out. "I'm thinking this is more of a you problem." She added
"Alright! Anybody who doesn't want to end up face down and hogtied, out of my way!" Perry yelled as she walked out with a lasso and began to swing it in the air before throwing it towards Lorenzo. The loop landed around Lorenzo and Perry began to pull and wrestle the llama.
"Stop!" Leigh yelled. "You're hurting him!" She exclaimed before making her way over towards the llama. Adam quickly chased after her, grabbing her around her waist and hauling her back over towards the group. "Adam put me down!" Leigh exclaimed.
"No way, you do not need another concussion." Adam stated as the four watched Perry subdue the llama.
"He fought hard, but once I got his head in a leg lock, it was pretty much over." Perry said as she brought the llama over towards the group. "Keep an eye on him," She said to the group as she handed Adam the rope. "He'll miss me. they always do." She added somberly before walking off.
"Do you know how expensive those nanobots are?" Chase asked. "We have to get them out." He added.
"Forget the fucking bots, we have to save Lorenzo!" Leigh pointed out.
"How do you remove the nanobots from humans?" Adam asked Chase.
"You're supposed to extract them individually, but with this many, it could take days!" Chase added before walking over towards the llama and pressing his finger to his temple. He looked over the llama before frowning. "oh, no, a bunch of them are gathering in the salivary glands." He stated "They're preparing to activate." He added.
'What does that mean?" Amber asked
"It means that the next time he spits-" Chase started but was quickly cut off by a large glob of spit flying past his face and hitting the wall with a loud sizzle. "-it'll leave a mark." Chase said before students began to run out of the lobby. Lorenzo continued to spit, causing more chaos to ensue. "We have to do something!" Chase exclaimed
"Why don't we just get a big magnet and pull em out." Amber suggested.
"Amber that's brilliant!" Leigh exclaimed.
"It is?" Amber asked as she ruffled her hair. "I didn't expect for that suggestion to be taken seriously, i saw it on a tv show." She added.
"The nanobots are metallic, so we just need a giant magnet to help guide them through." Chase explained.
"Where are we gonna get a giant magnet?" Leigh asked before Chase sighed.
"We don't have time to go looking for one either." He sighed before Adam nudged Leigh's shoulder.
"Use your molecular kinesis." he whispered.
"I can't." Leigh hissed.
"That's not a bad idea," Chase said. "I can use my x-ray vision and Leigh can use her molecular kinesis to push the nano bots out of the llama." He added before grabbing a water bottle off of a bench and dumping the contents of it in the trash. "And Amber can collect them in this bottle." He explained as he handed the bottle to the blonde.
"I don't know..." leigh trailed off.
"You've got this." Adam told her. "Just pretend we're in the lab and that this is a practice scenario." Adam told her as Leigh let out a an uneven breath.
"Ready" Chase asked. Leigh nodded as she stuck out her hand and tried to concentrate. "Okay Amber, hold the bottle up near the llama's mouth." Chase instructed and Amber quickly followed suit. "Okay" Chase sighed as he held his finger up to his temple and looked over the llama. "The nanobots are gathered in the femur." Chase said before Leigh moved her hand towards the leg. "Good, you've got em, now just stay focused okay?" Chase told her, Leigh nodded, trying to keep her focus on the nanobots. "Pull up and then bank left." Chase said as Leigh moved her hand in the direction Chase gave her. "Keep going." Chase told her as Leigh's hand approached the llama's neck. "Okay, Amber get ready.." Chase trailed off. "Leigh pull up." Chase instructed as Leigh's hand made its way up the llama's neck before the llama let out a loud burp into the bottle.
"Oh god that stinks." Amber said as she handed the bottle to Chase who quickly screwed the top on.
"You did it!" Adam said as he picked Leigh up and tossed her over his shoulder.
"Adam!" Leigh exclaimed before he put her down.
"Sorry, i'm just so fucking proud of you." he told her before pulling her in for a kiss.
'Couldn't have done without you." Leigh smiled.
"Ugh, i hate them." Amber sighed as she watched Adam beam at Leigh.
"Me too." Chase stated as Principal Perry walked out into the lobby.
" Good news!" Principal Perry smiled "Deerfield just wants their llama back, no questions asked." She told them. "Muscles, lady golfer, get to it!" Perry said before going back into her office.
"Here, i'll take him back." Amber smiled as she grabbed the reins to the llama. 'I wanna say hi to my dear friend Griffyn." She added mischievously before leading the llama out of the school
"Wait, so i'm not supposed to use the trickle down water to wash my feet and legs?" Adam asked Leigh as they sat out on the back deck with the rest of the group.
"No Adam, you need to use fresh water." Leigh told him.
"But, isn't it better for the planet if i use the trickle down water?" Adam asked. "And the shampoo and soap run down my legs and feet so everything is getting clean anyway." Adam explained.
"Just wash your feet at least okay?" Leigh asked.
"Deal." Adam told her as he swung an arm over her shoulder.
"Yeah, and while you're in the shower, you can wash my first place medal." Leo smiled as he held up the gold dominio around his neck.
"it's a first place medal for tipping domino's Leo, settle down." Amber said
"Yeah, although i hope Caitlyn didn't think we were serious about wanting to practice for nationals." Bree said.
"She does know where we live." Chase pointed out, Bree and Leo looked at each other before getting up.
"I'm gonna go hide." Bree said.
"Me too." leo added before the two exited the patio.
"Better hide your boyfriend, Crazy Caitlyn is coming over." Amber giggled before Leigh glared at her and leaned closer into Adam. Amber's phone went off and she swiftly answered it.
"Hello?" She asked before her face went pale. "H-hi mom." She said as she looked at Leigh who's eyes were wide. "I miss you too." Amber said as her eyes began to fill with tears. "How are you? Are you feeling okay?" Amber asked as she got up and made her way inside.
"Thank god, i thought her mom was never going to call." Leigh sighed.
"Really?" Chase asked
"Well, I don't know, Amber's mom is my mom's sister, and i was just worried her mom would just cut her off." Leigh explained. "I know Amber's dad would never ever leave Amber, but still, to have your mom just not want to talk to you anymore? Thats fucked." Leigh sighed as Adam pressed a kiss to her temple.
"Everything is gonna be okay, Amber's Dad will be moving to Mission Creek soon and her mom will be out of rehab in a few months." Adam said before Leigh gave him a narrowed look. "Okay, several months, but she has to be making progress if she wants to talk to Amber." Adam pointed out.
"Yeah, i remember when Amber's mom was dodging her calls left and right." Chase sighed before looking over at Adam and Leigh. He felt the familiar ache creep through his body and set down his drink. Leigh noticed Chase's face slightly crinkle.
"You alright?" Leigh questioned.
"Yeah, i just have a headache coming on." Chase lied as he stood up. "Probably should turn in early." He added.
"Alright, well feel better." Leigh said softly before Chase made his way inside.
