Race Bannon and Dr. Benton Quest, after a long trip from the Camden airport, walked up to the front entrance of the Quest Mansion.

"I hope I made the right decision, leaving Jessie and Jonny together. Here. Alone."

Benton tried to hide is grin. Race would always be an over protective father. "Now, Race, I'm sure everything is fine."

Benton twisted the doorknob and pushed the door open, only to hear:

"Oh, c'mon, Jess! You know you're enjoying this!"

"Jonnnnny! Stop it!"

Both parents stood rooted to the spot, unable to move.

"Ow, Jess! What'd you do THAT for?"

"Because you wouldn't get off of me! Now, we're going to do this MY way!"

"Oh, I can hardly wait."

"I'll bet. Now, get up!"

"Already there."

"Benton." gasped Race.

"Now what, Jess?"

"This!"

"AAAAHHHH!"

"Oh, C'mon, Jonny Quest, you know you're enjoying it!"

"Well, yeah, maybe I am. What are you going to do about. OH, Jess!"

As Jessie and Jonny's giggles filtered to the ears of their fathers Benton and Race's temporary paralysis disappeared. They ran as fast as they could to the living room, only to find Jessie and Jonny. tickling each other?

"Kids, Jessie, Jonny." began Benton.

"Dad? Why isn't Race breathing?"

"Jonny, Jessie, WHAT are you two doing?" asked Benton, finally.

"Well." began Jessie, "we were trying to decide what movie to watch and.we were just fooling around, I guess."

"I see," answered Benton, but not before thumping Race on the back to prevent him from turning blue. "Well, Race and I will leave you two to your fool.um, movie. Won't we?"

A gasping Race nodded.

After the two men went upstairs Jessie and Jonny looked at each other, confused.

"Hey, Jess, what do you think they thought was going on?"

"I don't." Jessie froze and looked at Jonny in alarm. "OH MY."

"GOD!"

The End
