Part 7
"Listen, you get the couch," Leo ordered as they walked in.
"This is your apartment?" Toby looked around.
"It's close to the White House, and I'm there more anyway," Leo snapped.
"You have a lot of plants," Toby mentioned. There had to be at least 15 plants hanging all around them.
"I like living things that don't talk back," Leo moaned and walked into the bedroom to get some sheets.
Toby reached up and touched one of them, which made Leo come back in and smack him on the head.
"Ouch!"
"Never touch my plants," Leo warned and threw the sheets on the couch. "Now Donna is going to bring you a suit tomorrow morning for work. So we have to show up early. And what the hell is that on your ear?" Leo asked, finally noticing it.
"It's an earring," Toby looked around.
"Well, that better be coming out soon." Leo warned. "Now sleep!" He pointed to the couch.
"Yes sir," Toby gave in and walked over and laid down on the couch. It felt good just to close his eyes and rest.
ONE HOUR LATER
"Okay guys, I can't believe I'm late feeding you," Toby woke up to the sound of Leo's voice. "Do you want some water?" Leo asked the plants in a soft tone. Toby stayed lying down, afraid Leo would see him awake and demand to know what happened last night. Toby looked over at the clock and noticed it said one in the morning. He moaned quietly.
Leo feed and talked to the plants for nearly an hour. Toby tried to ignore him, but it wasn't working very well. Finally, at two, Leo went into his room. Toby took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He was just about to sleep when he heard voices coming from the people next store. They were arguing over something and then decided to make up. So for the next three hours, Toby kept hearing these two people scream at each other and then he heard them having sex. They did this for three hours.
Finally, around five, the noise stopped. Toby moved to his side and closed his eyes again. Before he could fall asleep, he heard Leo's alarm go off. Toby moaned and turned over.
"Toby, it's time to wake up," Leo snapped while walking into the kitchen to make some coffee.
"Can I sleep for a little while longer?" Toby pleaded.
"Donna's meeting you at work at seven so you can change into something decent," Leo glared. "And we still have to talk about last night."
"Nothing happened."
"Is that why you were in jail?"
"Leo, I didn't sleep last night. And I don't remember the night before. Please, can I answer these questions later?"
"Go take a shower and get that pie crap out of your hair," Leo shook his head. "Look at you, you're falling apart at the seams."
"How high is your apartment?"
"Two stories. Why?"
"Damn," Toby started walking towards the bathroom. "I would only break my leg," He moaned.
"The guy's going crazy," Leo shook his head.
THE WHITE HOUSE
"Listen, you can stay at my place again tonight," Leo mentioned as they walked into Toby's office.
"No," Toby said quickly. "It's fine. Thanks for last night."
"What's wrong with my apartment?" Leo asked, sternly.
"Nothing," Toby smiled weakly. "It's great. I just don't want to bother you."
"I get the hint," Leo growled and walked out.
"Toby!" Donna came running in. "I'm so sorry. I told you to run."
"What the hell happened?" Toby snapped.
"My neighbor. She thinks that I steal things from her."
"So she chases after you with a pan?" Toby asked, confused.
"Yeah," Donna nodded and handed the suit over to him. "I'm so sorry."
"Don't worry about it," Toby waved her off. "I have to change."
"I'll see you later," Donna smiled and started walking out. "Oh, do you need a place to stay tonight?"
"Nope. I'm good," Toby said quickly.
"Do you have a place to stay tonight?" Donna asked.
"Nope. But I don't feel like getting arrested again," Toby smiled and shut the door.
"Clean clothes," Toby quickly got off the jeans and the shirt he was wearing and got on his suit. "One thing to go right," He whispered to himself as he tied his tie.
Toby went over and sat on his couch. He was exhausted. He's spent the past three nights at different places. He was not the type to move around a lot. And now, with the speech burnt to a crisp, he was going to have to spend all week re-writing it. Where was he going to have the time to look for another apartment?
"I can do this," Toby tried to boost up his enthusiasm, but it didn't work. He walked over to his desk and sat down. He knew the rest of the senior staff wouldn't be in for at least another hour. He started is computer and waited for it to boot up. He's lab-tap was gone, thanks to the fire. So he had to write it in word.
"Okay," Toby took a deep breath as he got into word. He put his fingers on the keyboard and then BANG!! Writers block.
