Kathleen, again. I have found out that it's really easy to upload if you edit your chapter and everything in Microsoft Word and then you copy and paste it to notepad, whereas I save it. For some reason, Microsoft word won't upload with me. Ah well. I've found a way. LOL. Thank you to Pnutball for the review. I hope more people review...*hint hint*
Here's the fic!!!
Riding home in the Limo, same day,
We couldn't have come to the ground faster. I wished as hard as I could that I could delay getting to the ground. But nooooooo. The second Lilly gets there; the ride just starts to work. Great.
And not only does she look very mad, the Pug look is coming out in her face more than ever.
When we got down to the ground, I pretended that I didn't see Lilly. I hoped that she would think I didn't see her, and then I could casually walk away…give myself sometime to think up an explanation.
FAT CHANCE. FATTER THAN FAT LOUIE CHANCE.
She marched up to me.
"Where were you?" She demanded
Then I realized she had no idea about the whole profession of love thing.
She was referring to my promise to meet her by the cotton candy stand at three o'clock.
WHEW, I thought.
She continued. "I waited for a half an hour for you. I missed the hypnotist. My one chance to see if I was actually royalty or some important political figure in another life, and you gallop off with Tina and somehow end up stuck on the Ferris wheel with my BROTHER, who is, by the way, deeply missed by the entire computer club because no one can figure out his odd little message at the end of that program he designed." She paused, "Can you explain…any of this? If so, give me the reader's digest version. I DON'T want to know all your little details."
"I looked at Michael. He replied the stare with a look that said, 'No way. Don't tell her. She's too mad. And I should know because I'm her brother.'
So, I fudged the story. At first I was all: "Oh, well, you see, Tina…and Lars… and Wahiem…disappeared…so I couldn't find them…had to catch them." I realized that I was a blubbering baby. Where had my assertiveness gone? I know where it went. It ditched me the second I saw Lilly. Stupid assertiveness. Wait, I thought, it's back. "I couldn't see them, so I went to the computer club booth to ask Michael if he'd seen them. He said I wasn't supposed to be without a protector, so we searched, and then…we decided to go on the Ferris wheel. You know, because it's so high up, we could probably see them. And I'm really sorry for that hypnotist thing."
Lilly looked thoughtful.
"That hypnotist thing?" She said after a long pause, " I have been looking forward to seeing Senior Magico for weeks. Ever since that…um…mistake on ourselves…."
Oh my. I just realized now, as I'm writing this, that Lilly for once in her life, feels very un-assertive. As un-assertive as she's ever been. In fact, my assertiveness has led to her, un-assertiveness. Therefore, I have whipped her down a notch.
"Well, you know Lilly, there is that restaurant in the Village…they have all these guest entertainers, maybe, you know, there will be a hypnotist sometime there. I bet if we called the owner he could tell us…"
What an un Mia-and-Lilly like conversation.
Later that evening, at home, on my bed
(Is that detailed enough for you?)
Mom's back. So is Mr. G. I mean, uh, Frank.
She's acting really strange. She's been all happy. Frank (it still seems weird to call him that, after so many months of Mr. G) says that he thinks it's because of the morning sickness. Which, he says, she hasn't had since the day they eloped, save for a little bit of nausea on the plane. She's even got back to painting.
But really, what surprises me the most, out of everything about her that's different since she got back, is that she actually thought all the stuff people gave her for the baby, all that pastel stuff, is cute.
I'm going to go to bed.
I'm tired,
Nervous (about the Lilly thing…we have to tell her soon)
And I miss my Mommy.
The old mommy. The irresponsible one. The one that needed me to…
This is so Full House.
I don't feel that my Mommy needs me anymore. She's got Frank and the baby…
