Chapter 51: Lego Madness

The next day as they awoke from their slumber with the most intense headaches of their young lives the gang soon found out that their pain would only get worse. It first started when everyone had managed to make it into the kitchen to find all of the Forman family at the kitchen table except for Burt. Once everyone realized that Burt was at the table each member of the gang quickly covered their ears when they watched Bae get up from her seat and shout out Burt throughout the house while Red laughed from his seat.

Shortly after breakfast for the rest of the day the gang ended up staying down in the basement with pillows over their heads and ears after they had seen the amount of snow on the ground from the previous night which had caused their previous plan to stay far away from the Forman residence for the rest of the day to backfire on them. But as the loud weekend came to a close things started to get back to normal. Well as normal as things could have possibly gotten for the season anyways.

Once they had arrived back home after dropping off Eric's grandfather and grandmother at the airport the young couple noticed that it started to snow again. In fact once they had gotten home they found out from Red and Kitty that there was still more to come. And they were not kidding. Waking up the next morning as they went downstairs into the kitchen all that Eric and Jackie could see outside was white flakes coming down hard from the sky. After finding out from Kitty that they had another snow day from school each let out a groan knowing that they would have to make up this day in the summer before they had breakfast with Red and Kitty.

Once they had finished eating their breakfast that was when boredom started to take its toil on Eric and Jackie. First for a little while the young couple occupied themselves by playing with Rexy. But that fun came to an end when they had released Rexy outside to go the the bathroom before they watched him play around in the snow. After they had managed to chase down Rexy who was more than thrilled to experience his first taste of a winter season while Jackie cleaned up Rexy inside of the kitchen along with Kitty a idea popped into Eric's mind involving the little puppy dog before he left the women's side and disappeared into the basement where within 20 minutes he returned with a couple of big boxes.

Now just a half and hour later after she had managed to dry off Rexy as much as she could along with the help of Kitty with Rexy wrapped in a towel in her arms Jackie slowly makes her way into the living room before she stops in her tracks at what she sees laying all across the floor around Eric. On the ground is countless lego pieces with small structures all around the floor including what she deems to be a clock tower,police station,and movie theatre. Taking a closer look around the ground a smile comes to Jackie's face as she recognizes the city that Eric is building. A city that she had seen in a couple of Eric's comic books as well as her own.

Taking her eyes away from the lego city Jackie looks over to Eric with a smile as she watches him start to build another structure.

" Gotham City?"

" What?"

" You are building Gotham City correct? You know the city that Batman protects. The city where a few criminals such as The Joker,Two Face,The Penguin,and Mad hatter raise havoc in before they are brought down by the dark knight and taken to Arkham Asylum."

With his eyes widening Eric takes his eyes away from his project to look towards Jackie seeing a smile on her face before she shrugs her shoulders.

" What? Wonder Woman visited Gotham City in one of her latest comics that i read. It was a very good comic. Although there is still one thing that i don't understand from that comic."

" And that would be what beautiful?"

" Well in the comic Wonder Woman didn't learn that Bruce Wayne was Batman in the latest issue. If she really wanted to know all she had to do was take out her lasso of truth and force Bruce to tell her that he was Batman."

" Well regardless it wouldn't have worked. He's Batman. He would have had some gadget to counteract the lasso's power."

" Oh really? I seriously doubt it. If she wanted she could get any truthful answer she would want from him. The lasso would just help a little. Wonder Woman is one of the most powerful comic book characters out there besides Superman. And in fact I would bet she could kick Superman's butt. Besides there is no way Batman would be able to resist Wonder Woman's charm."

" Like i said he's Batman. If anyone could beat Wonder Woman it would be him. Besides he so could to resist her charm."

With a grin forming on her face Jackie slowly makes her way over towards Eric before kneeling down towards with a seductive smile.

" Are you sure about that? It's not too late to change your answer."

Eric watches Jackie lean slowly towards him with a smile on her face before he croaks out.

" Yeah i'm sure."

Eric watches Jackie stop inches from his face.

" Are you really sure? It's okay to change your answer. I won't hold it against you."

Looking back and forth between Jackie eyes and lips after a few seconds Eric lets out a sigh.

" Fine you're right."

" About what?"

" Wonder Woman is better than Batman."

With a smile on her face Jackie closes the distance between them pressing her lips gently to Eric's own before pulling back with a bright smile on her face.

" See nobody can resist a woman's charm. Not even Batman."

" Maybe you are right but regardless you are the coolest future wife ever!"

Letting out a few giggles Jackie gives Eric another kiss before glancing around the room.

" I know. So why Gotham City?"

" I thought it would be fun to make. When i was little i used to make all sorts of lego cities. It also gave me a new challenge. I mean building every building that was in Gotham City not missing a single detail. Besides it's not just for me that i'm building this for. It's also for Rexy."

Jackie looks over to Eric as she gently starts petting Rexy.

" Really like what? I hope nothing dangerous."

Eric quickly shakes his head before he leans forward and whispers his idea into Jackie's ear. After a few seconds Eric hears Jackie letting out a small laugh before he leans back and sees a bright smile across Jackie's face.

" That would be funny to see. I will let you get back to work then."

Eric watches Jackie get up from the ground and head towards the kitchen before he calls out.

" Hey beautiful."

Jackie stops in her tracks at the kitchen door before looking over her shoulder at Eric.

" Yes sweetie?"

" Just curious do you happen to have that particular outfit?"

With a smile on her face Jackie rolls her eyes at Eric.

" Maybe I do. Maybe I don't. It depends upon how good you are."

" Well i'm just saying that if you do then you would be the hottest Wonder Woman ever."

" With answers like that maybe you will find out sooner rather than later. Perhaps later on tonight you will find that out for yourself. Maybe you can also find out that Wonder Woman doesn't always have to be good. That sometimes she can be a very bad girl."

Eric watches Jackie exit out of the living room as she lets out a few giggles before he turns his attention back to the ground with a wide smile on his face.

For the next few hours without taking any sort of break Eric worked on making a lego Gotham City with a few added twists along the way. After he had managed to complete a giant lego building to the side that resembled Arkham Asylum with a smile Eric started to make a few small buildings around the room. With each building he created the city started to get larger and larger until he finally stopped when his creation was completed. After taking all of the leftover lego pieces and placing them in a few of the boxes before he slowly made his way towards the kitchen.

Upon arriving inside of the kitchen with a smile on his face Eric turns his attention towards the kitchen table where he sees Jackie playing a card game with his mother while Rexy rests peacefully on Jackie's lap as his father is reading a newspaper from his seat.

" Okay it's ready."

Looking up from her seat Kitty takes her eyes away from her cards to look over towards Eric with a confused look across her face.

" What's ready?"

Hearing Jackie pulling out her seat Kitty glances back and forth between her and Eric.

" Oh Eric was making a surprise for Rexy using some of his old legos."

Putting down his paper Red looks over towards Eric with a smile.

" No kidding? So you brought out your old legos huh son. I guess you're lego retirement was premature then."

" What do you mean by that Mr Forman?"

" Well Jackie there was a time where Eric was also building things with his legos. He was really good as well. I remember this one time after a class field trip he built the entire power plant using his legos without missing a single detail. After a while he got so bored that he declared that he was retiring from this lego building days. But at the time he was 7 so i couldn't really take him seriously."

Eric hears Red letting out a small laugh as he raises his hands up in the air.

" Yeah,yeah,yeah. Well i unretired for the day. You should take a look at what i built for yourself."

" Sure why not."

Eric watches everyone in the kitchen get up from their seats before he leads them into the living room. Once he opens up the kitchen door allowing everyone to walk past him into the living room Eric enters the room after he hears a gasp coming from Jackie and Kitty seeing his creation.

All across the ground in perfect detail is Gotham City in lego form. From the national bank to the police station. Heck even the clock tower that was in the center of town is there. But that is not the only thing in the city. All across the ground and cities is a few dog bones made of red and blue legos.

Looking over seeing Rexy wagging his tail like crazy from seeing the lego city Eric watches Jackie gently place Rexy on the ground before he watches Rexy take off for the lego city. Within seconds Eric along with everyone else lets out a laugh at watching Rexy crashing into a few of the buildings sending lego pieces flying everywhere around the living room.

" Oh no they saw he's got to go. Go,go Rexzilla!"

Jackie lets out a few giggles as she wraps her arms around Eric as Rexy continues to go through the lego city. As she continues to watch Rexy destroy a few of the buildings Jackie glances down to see Eric lean up towards her before she hears him whispering out.

" Just wait until he sees his special surprise behind the clock tower."

Wiggling out of Jackie's embrace Eric quietly goes over to the lego city to grab a special lego creation behind the lego clock tower before he places it down on the ground front and center as he hears everyone letting out a small laugh.

" Oh Rexy!"

Eric watches Rexy turn towards him before within seconds Eric watches Rexy charge forward towards the very large lego bone he had hidden away. Before he has any chance to react Eric watches Rexy jump into the lego bone sending it to the ground. As he lets out a small laugh with everyone else in the room Eric watches Rexy chew on the end of the lego bone as he wraps his legs and paws around the bone.
