Chapter 6~ The Rehearsal
Tony felt the sun lightly dancing on his skin the next morning. He felt wonderful and refreshed. The only thing that could make him happier was to go into the dining area and eat some of Jeannie's wonderful cooking. Getting up, he pulled on his robe and went to his bedroom door. Suddenly the smell of hot waffles and coffee flowed through the air and he smiled to himself, until he heard laughter.
"Oh Kyle that is absolutely mean."
Tony inched himself closer to where he heard Jeannie talking to Kyle.
"It was I'll have to admit, but once you look back on how ridiculous your childhood was, well, you just can't help but laugh."
"Oh I know, my sister used to pick on me all the time. Though I still do not find it very funny."
After she said that Kyle was laughing hard.
"No, the sibling who was made fun of usually don't find it very funny."
Laughing softly Jeannie leaned forward and propped her head on her hand.
Tony was starting to say over and over to himself, 'She's not interested in him. She's not interested in him,' just to keep himself from exploding.
"Jeannie I must say that you are the most beautiful woman I have ever met. And let me tell you, I have met a lot."
Jeannie looked flattered, then thought that maybe Kyle was really interested in her.
"Umm, I think I had better wake Tony up." She said standing. But Kyle grabbed her hand and looked her in the eyes.
Still watching Tony felt his temperature rise dangerously high when Kyle touched his genie.
"When shall I pick you up tomorrow?" He asked innocently.
"What time is the wedding?"
"It starts at two o'clock."
"Oh, ummm."
"How about noon? Then we can go to lunch together." He urged.
"That sounds wonderful." She said and pulled her arm away from him. She started to walk towards the living room when she ran into her master. "Oh mas. . . Tony, I was just about to come get you."
"Oh, well, I'm awake." He said smiling at her.
"Well, I don't wish to intrude anymore this morning so I will be going." Kyle said and stood to leave, but an arm stopped him. Looking up, he saw the clouded eyes of Tony Nelson.
"You won't be intruding." He said. "And besides, you haven't finished your breakfast."
"Oh really Tony, I had better be going."
"Okay, nice to see you again Kyle."
"You too." He said and let the house.
"Oh master, why did you have to go do that for?" Jeannie said crossing her arms and walking around the table.
"What are you mad at me for?"
"I was simply having a nice conversation with Kyle and you made him leave."
"Jeannie you were right here. I told him he should stay."
"Anyone could tell you were being sarcastic."
"Well I didn't mean to be." He said making a pouty face. "Are you mad at me?"
Smiling, Jeannie stood up and went around to the back of her master, hugging him.
"Of course I'm not mad master. Not at all."
"Good. Should we get ready for the rehearsal?"
"Of course." She said and blinked. Tony was in his air force uniform and Jeannie in a purple mini dress.
"Wonderful. Thanks Jeannie." He said and ate his breakfast.

"Where could Tony and Jeannie be?" Lili asked, mostly to herself.
"Oh don't worry Lili, Tony is usually right on time. And. . . we still have a few minutes." Roger said, putting his arms around his bride to be.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure."
"Well, as long as they're not extremely late." She said and as if it was a cue, Tony and Jeannie came around the side.
"Oh there you two are. I was beginning to wonder." Lili said and hugged Jeannie.
"Well we had a bit of traffic trouble." Tony explained and looked around the garden.
"Do you like it Tony?" Roger asked walking up to his friend.
"Yeah, it's beautiful."
"Yeah, kinda like a fairytale."
Tony let his mind drift for a while but came right back to reality when Jeannie's arms went around his neck.
"Master, Lili says she needs you to go in the back."
"Oh, okay, thanks Jeannie." He said and was going to walk away from her but out of the corner of his eye he saw him.
Kyle didn't see Tony looking at him and started to walk toward the area he and Jeannie were in. Tony wanted to put that guy in his place, so he put his arms around Jeannie, and pulled her into the tightest embrace he would allow himself to hold her and slightly bent his neck so his lips covered hers. Jeannie pressed her own lips against his, all the time wondering what had made her master kiss her.
When he pulled away to go and get ready for the rehearsal, Jeannie saw Kyle and didn't know rather to be mad at her master or happy that he was jealous.
"Wait for me after the rehearsal okay Jeannie?"
"Yes. . . Tony." She said his name sarcastically. Though she hated to be mad at her master, she thought that the only reason he kissed her was because of Kyle.
~*~
Jeannie sat through the rehearsal, arms crossed and she scowled every time she looked at her master. Kyle was quick to notice and Tony saw him talking to Jeannie, then saw the two of them leave.
