Riding It Out
Chapter Six
~~~*~~~
ON THE WAY HOME…(PRINCESS)
After escaping the crowd of boys that were trying to ask her out to the prom, Princess ran to the nearest pay phone to call home for Jeeves. She put the quarter in the phone, and a few seconds later she found that the phone was broke.
"Sh_t. What am I gonna do now?"
"Walk around like everyone else." someone said, with a hint of sarcasm in their voice. Princess turned around and saw Mitch looking at her with a smirk on his face.
"I'm not everyone else." She said, "Why don't you walk like everyone else?"
"I have more fun bothering you." He said, walking up to her. He ran a finger along her jaw line, and stopped at her chin. She started to quiver under his touch, and he stopped.
"Besides…" he started, breaking the silence, "You didn't give me what I want."
"And what was that?" she said, almost losing her ground
"You know." He said, and she started to blush deep red. "Princess."
"Huh?" She said, losing her mind
"Let me take you to the dance."
"The dance? The Halloween dance?"
"No. The Halloween Dance." He said, and then her mind snapped back into place again.
"This is Mitchellson making me feel this way. MITCHELLSON OUT OF ALL PEOPLE! LOOK AT YOURSELF MOREBUCKS! JUST LOOK AT YOURSELF!"
"What's with you?" she screamed, "You don't know how to treat a girl, more or less the richest girl in Townsville..."
Mitch smirked at her, and then shook his head. He took his index finger, looped it around one of her pants loops, and then yanked her over, catching her lips in a kiss. When he let go, Princess looked up at him, stunned.
"What's that for?" she said,
"What I wanted a long time ago." He said, "And for you to shut up. So are you going to the dance with me or not?"
"Yeah." She said softly, as a long white limo pulled up in the street by the two. Princess turned around, and saw that that was her ride.
"Well…" she started, "See ya later."
"Yeah." He said, giving her one last kiss, "Later."
She went inside the limo, and as Jeeves speeded off, Princess started having stronger feelings for Mitch than the ones she had when she got Mitch to help her out with the Ballet Bash. And now that things between the two changed, she knew that it was going to be harder for her to hide her feelings.
THE PLUTONIA HOUSEHOLD…(Butch)
Butch walked in his house, and immediately saw his mother in the kitchen, making his favorite meal- A ham/cheese/tomatoes/mayonnaise hero.
"Time to bring on the apologies." He thought to himself. He threw down his book bag, and sports bag, and ran in the kitchen.
"Hey ma." He said, cheerfully. She looked up and smiled back. "Someone's happy today, even though he's still on punishment."
"Can't let a thing in life get you down." He said, having a feeling he was going at things from the wrong angle. She might, and might not let him off punishment, but for now, he'd just keep on going at things from Boomer's point of view.
"You just have to put the past behind you." He said, and figured she'd get out quicker if he did like Buttercup did if she tried his oldest brother's approach.
"Just have to live life one day at a time." He said, babbling on like an idiot, even worse, feeling like one.
Marjorie looked down at her middle child and smirked. She knew all three of her sons, and knew that Butch was being anything but himself at the moment.
"Butch. Tell me the truth. Being on punishment is killing you isn't it."
Butch nodded frowning. "Yes mam."
"So. You're off punishment. Just remember one thing." She said,
"Yes?" Butch said,
"Don't do a good deed and then let the good deed go bad. Okay?"
"Yes mam." He said, solemnly. "Ma?"
"Yes Butch?" she said, and before she knew it, Butch had almost knocked her over, in a hug.
"Thank you thank you thank you." he said, "I promise I won't do it again."
Majorie returned the hug, knowing that it was something she didn't expect. Of the three boys, Butch seemed to let only Buttercup touch him or hug him. She was very touched that he was hugging her out of love, and gratitude. A tear slid out of her eye, as Butch took his things and went upstairs.
The Morebucks Mansion… (Princess)
Princess went to her room, jumped on her bed, and grabbed her phone.
"Hello?" a girl answered,
"Diamond? This is Princess. What's up?"
"Nothing. So what's up with you and Mitch so far?"
"He kissed me. And asked me out to a dance were supposed to be having next Friday."
"How many times?" Diamond screamed, her ecstatic voice ripping through Princess' ear. Diamond Morebucks is Princess' half sister.
The story behind the Morebucks sisters is that Daddy Morebucks dated Stella Reeno, and they had a temporary marriage that lasted two years. They met each other at a formal party at Statesville's Five-Star Hotel. and the same night, they got…fully aquainted. Two months later, they got married, and things seemed to go well. They were intimately satisfied until Stella was pregnant with Diamond. Things got out of hand when Stella found out that Daddy Morebucks was only with her for the sex. She took custody of Diamond and left to live in Statesville.
A year later Morebucks started dating Anna White. He fell in love with her, and promised her that if he should die, everything was hers and their future child. Sadly, when Princess was born, Anna died, and Daddy Morebucks was heart broken, and had taken the honors of naming his child Princess, because that was the name he often called his first love. His ex-wife attended the funeral, but she wasn't there to grieve over the death. She was there to sharpen the pain more.
That didn't stop the Morebucks sister's from talking to each other though. They talked about every minute of their life over the phone. Like they were doing at the second.
"He kissed me twice." She said, a dreamy look in her eyes.
"How did it feel?" her sister asked her, wanting to know every detail.
"The first one was deep and passionate, and the second one was soft and sensual."
"Aww. Princess is falling in love." Diamond said, dreamily. Princess smirked, knowing that she had the dreamy eyed look.
"So what's going on between you and Casey?"
"Casey? Nothing. I dumped him for his brother. Okay I'm lying. Actually, he dumped me, and his brother asked me out."
"How does his brother look?"
"His brother is gorgeous. He has hazel eyes, muscular build. He's probably bigger than Mitch."
"Mitch who?" Princess said, her anger flaring up. Diamond snickered on the other line.
"Yup. You got it for him bad." She said, "You two should just make it official."
"It's probably going to be official after the dance. That's when all the questions start, and then I won't have any other thing to say except yes."
"But you'd be proud to say yes right?"
"Don't ask me questions that you know the answer to. It's not like you. This boy has your head in the clouds huh?"
"Oh course." She said, "I think I'm going to end up in love with him."
"Oh. That's sweet."
"I know. Oh, Princess, I'm gonna have to hang up. My mother has me on a leash these days. I'll talk to you later kay?"
"Okay. Buh bye."
"Bye."
Princess hung up the phone, and laid on her bed lazily. All she had on her mind was Mitch, and the way he made her feel. She even considered losing her virginity to him… "If he should fall love with me." She thought, though she wouldn't mind him having his hands all over her body. She heard her father call her, and she sighed, and went downstairs to see what her father wanted. What she really wanted to do was sit around and think about Mitch, but time was at the essence, and Princess had things to do.
