Chapter 35: Australia Pt 2

(2:20 PM PST Lloyd picks up the phone)

Mr. Hackett Said, Howdy, neighbor.

Lloyd Said, Rat Snacks.

Mr. Hackett Said, What?

Lloyd Said, It's not a good thing to get a call from the vice principal during school hours.

Mr. Hackett Said, I think I better talk to Mrs. Diffy.

Lloyd Said, I'll get Barb.

(Mr. Diffy yells for Barb)

Lloyd Said, It's Mr. Hackett. It's about Pim.

(Lloyd heads out to the Garage)

Barb Said, What did Pim do this time? How much should Lloyd make the check out for?

Mr. Hackett Said, What, no, this isn't about Pim. Why don't you put me on the Phone with Ms. Teslow?

Barb Said, How do you know Mandy is living here with us?

Mr. Hackett Said, I'm your neighbor, that's how.

Barb Said, What concerns Keely, concerns Phil, concerns me. Now spill.

Mr. Hackett Said, Actually, this concerns both Phil and Keely. They were in there first two classes of the day with our new teacher Mrs. Woodson but since lunch they were not in my first class of the afternoon and are not in this one either. So my thought is they skipped.

Barb Said, Well, they are not here.

(Lloyd comes in from the garage)

Lloyd Said, The skyak is missing. Pim must have taken it.

Barb Said, Lloyd.

Mr. Hackett Said, What?

Barb Said, My husband just told me the Kayak is missing. He probably just misplaced it. I bet Phil and Keely will show up back to school by the end of the school day. Ms. Teslow and I told them we would pick them up.

Mr. Hackett Said, Anyway, if that's the case, they will get detention to serve after school for a week starting today so when you and Ms. Teslow pick them up at 4:30 PM I want you guys to come in and the four of us will have ourselves a little chat. Bring Lloyd as well.

Barb Said, Ah, Ok.

Mr. Hackett Said, Talk to you later. (Hangs up the phone) Man, that family is nuts. Anyway, class…

(Back in the Diffy residence)

Ms. Teslow Said, Barb, who was that?

Lloyd Said, Barb, why were you talking about Phil and Keely when Pim's the one in trouble?

Barb Said, It wasn't about Pim, Lloyd. Phil and Keely skipped since lunch.

Ms. Teslow and Lloyd Said, (In Unison) What?

Lloyd Said, Not, my Phil.

Ms. Teslow Said, Not, my Keely.

Barb Said, You just said the Skyak was missing Lloyd. Obviously, Phil and Keely took it.

Ms. Teslow Said, What's a Skyak?

Barb Said, It's like a flying Kayak.

Lloyd Said, Only, it can go a thousand times faster.

Ms. Teslow Said, What!

Barb Said, Not helping, Lloyd. I told Mr. Hackett they will probably try to sneak back on campus and come out at about 3:30 PM acting like everything is fine. Right when we will be about to leave, Mr. Hackett will bust them. They will have detention for a week starting today.

Ms. Teslow Said, So, are we just going to let them get away with it?

Lloyd Said, Are we, honey?

Barb Said, We will all have a serious talk with Phil and Keely how this isn't acceptable. We know they are in love but we need to tell them how they can't feel entitled. Look what entitlement got Tiger Woods into late 2009.

Ms. Teslow Said, What happened to Tiger Woods in 2009?

Lloyd Said, He got beat over the head from a golf club by his wife after she found out he was unfaithful.

Barb Said, It took him years to rehab his image.

Ms. Teslow Said, Ouch, our little town of Pickford may have to change the name of our Tiger Woods.

Barb Said, Our main problem is Hackett, who wants Lloyd to come with us Ms. Teslow and along with Pim all sit down and have a talk of course with Phil and Keely there as well.

Lloyd Said, I have a shift at the hardware store.

Ms. Teslow Said, You can have Curtis take your shift. I have been working with him on his people skills and think he is coming along excellent.

Lloyd Said, Fine.

(Lloyd, Barb, and Ms. Teslow all dreading what's to come in the next few hours)

(2:30 PM PST. Keely and Phil cuddled close in the nude under the covers after an hour and a half of passionate love making.)

Keely Said, Phil, You're a machine.

Phil Said, (He laughs and gives Keely a kiss) That never get's old. I still remember the first time you told me that.

Keely Said, You do?

Phil Said, Of course, a little over a year ago, we were on our laptop computers in my backyard. Who would have imagined a little of a year later we would be here where we are now. (Phil sighs and smiles)

Keely Said, (Kisses Phil) I had hoped even then we would get here eventually.

Phil Said, So did I.

Keely Said, And here we are.

(Phil and Keely smile at each other and then get up to take a quick shower together to clean off which they managed to get a little more sex in but only a few minutes worth. Then they get dressed and check out of the hotel. They hop on the skyak which is still on the roof of the Tai restaurant that is just down the street from the hotel. Then they fly back to Pickford. They arrive at 3:10 PM PST)

Phil Said, Stay here, Keely.

Keely Said, Hurry, Phil. We only have twenty minutes. We can't have my mom finding out about this.

Phil Said, Relax, Keely. My dad's at work and our Mom's have already left to pick us up. I will put the Skyak away then we will rush back to H.G Wells.

(Phil quickly put's the skyak away. Phil and Keely race back to H.G Wells and arrive and sneak back into the school. It's 3:28 PM EST)

Keely Said, We made it, Phil.

Phil Said, Yeah, Keely.

(They both have a sigh of relief and then the bell rings)

Phil Said, I'm so glad the school day is over. We can go home and relax the rest of the day.

Keely Said, Yeah.

(Keely and Phil kiss then head to the exit of the school hand and hand)

Author-Notes: I really love how this chapter turned out. Next chapter, well, Phil and Keely get busted and the meeting with Mr. Hackett.
