Before the three knew it, they were back in Twister's room.
"Aye!" Cried Reggie as she landed on her tailbone. Twister landed on his dresser, while Lars just landed on his feet. He rolled his eyes.
"Wimps."
Reggie immediately stood up, ready to fight him.
"What did you call us?!" She snapped. She seemed to have forgotten the strange feelings that had begun to stir deep within her. Feelings that were directed toward Lars. Lars just grinned at her.
"You heard me, Rocket."
"You wonna fight?!" She snapped.
"Guys! Don't fight!" Twister groaned. The two glanced at him in confusion.
"Are you ok, Twist?" Asked Reggie.
Twister scrunched up his face. "I'm going through a crisis!"
Lars noticeably stiffened. It caused Reggie's heart to flutter. She knew he was worried for his little brother. But the worry soon turned to aggravation.
"I got a wedgie!" Whined Twister.
Reggie and Lars both groaned. Twister looked at them before he shrugged. He would never understand them. Little did he know that they were thinking the exact same thing about him.
Suddenly, Reggie gasped. "OMG!! What time is it?"
Twister looked at his watch-which was strapped on upside down. He scrunched up his face once again.
"I dunno..."
Lars took Twister's wrist and adjusted the watch. Twister grinned.
"Hey look! My watch isn't broken anymore! Thanks Lars!"
Lars blinked. "Uh...it was nothing. Really."
Reggie smiled at them before she pursued. "Well??"
"Twelve noon." Said Lars, knowing Twister was too wrapped up in how his watch was "Working" again.
"What day??"
"It's the same day we left, Rocket." Informed Lars.
Reggie's eyes widened. "W-what?? But how is that possible??"
Lars scratched the back of his head nervously. "It's different here than it is in the book."
"Obviously!"
"What I mean is---it could be years in that book. But here it would only be hours."
Reggie blinked in shock. However she was amazed.
"Lars...how did you come across this book?"
Lars smiled warmly at her, causing her heart to flutter madly.
"You'll find out in time."
Reggie began to mouth like a guppy. "But---but..."
Lars covered her mouth with his hand, his touch sending warmth through her body.
"I said you'd find out. It's no fun to give it away. But for now...lets burn this thing."
Reggie smiled unsurely as he removed his hand. The two just stare into each other's eyes. Both getting lost in the other's pools of warmth. Suddenly Twister's voice ruined the moment.
"Hey! I remembered how to tie!" He cried excitedly as he jumped off the dresser, ready to show Reggie and Lars. However, the second he jumped off- he fell onto his stomach. Reggie and Lars began laughing in amusement.
"You tied them together you moron." Laughed Lars.
Twister blinked, unsure of what had just happened. Reggie sighed as she knelt by his side, helping him up.
"Watch Blondie." She teased as she began to show him how to tie. Twister grinned.
"Cool! I think I've got it!"
Lars smiled at his little brother and Reggie. He would never admit it out loud---but he cared for both deeply. He would never hurt either one of them intentionally.
"LARS!!!!!!!!" Shouted Reggie in his ear.
Lars backed away, holding his ear and frowning at her.
"WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" He snapped.
"For not paying attention." She teased.
Lars sighed. "Next time just pinch me or something."
"Can I do it??" Asked Twister.
"No."
"Owe..."
Suddenly they three heard the front door slam open. Twister jumped into Lars's arms in shock. Lars dropped him.
"WHERE HAVE YOU TWO BEEN!!!??" Shouted a familiar voice from the doorway.
"AND WHAT IS HE DOING WITH YOU?!"
Reggie and Twister didn't even have to look. They already knew who that was. Reluctantly, they turned around to face a furious Otto Rocket.
Before the three knew it, they were back in Twister's room.
