Reggie's View
"So what did you do?" Twister asks me as we head to practice.
What's he talking about I just spend one hour of my life with Lars. I could have dressed up and gone on a date with Eddie and I would have had a better time. "Homework."
"You spent an hour with my brother and never said a word," Twister seemed shocked but didn't he do the same thing all the time?
"Nope," I smile, "Just the way I like it."
"Man Reg," he says, "You're married you should at least get along."
Twister had a point, wait this is Twister I shouldn't listen to him, "Twister its Lars he doesn't like us and we don't like him."
"Reg..." Twister sighs, "You're right again," of course I was. I was always right. That is until the next day.
Lars had finished his work at school he was drinking a soda and sort of playing the guitar.
Which, wasn't helping me, "Ugh where is Sam when I need him?"
I could feel Lars looking over at me with those burning eyes, "Having trouble wife?"
There was no way I was going to let Lars help me. He'd be on my case forever. I would never give him that pleasure. "I'm fine."
Lars sighed and kept playing that annoying guitar. It was so distracting. How could anyone work like this? Another thing, where did he get off calling me wife all the time? Was this a game to him, it was gross too, like a pet name. Although...it was the first time he said it.
"Sahcahtoe."
"What?" I look up. That was a weird word. Was he trying to sound dumb?
Lars walks over to me, and sits down, "Easy, Sin equals opposite over hypnotize."
"What?" Was he helping me? After I blew him of? That was weird, but cool.
"Watch," he grabs my paper and scribbles stuff on my paper, "Do you understand?"
Hey the answer was right, but how...did Lars know this, "How did you do that?"
"Easy you have this angle and this side now to find this side you multiply the side you have by the Cosine of the angle you have," Lars says doing the problem slowly again.
"I think I get it," I say lying, it was embarrassing that he knew and I didn't."
Try the next problem," he says.
I look at the paper he was nuts, "I don't think I can," I admit.
"I'll help," Lars says, "I promise." Wow this coming from Lars, wait he was up to something?
"Why are you doing this?"
"Why not? You're in my house having trouble with a subject I took last year," that was fair, "besides I wouldn't be a very good husband if I didn't," Fair but truthful helping me helped him.
"Thanks Lars," I say starting the problem and then I began to get it. He ever started to play again. Yeah, you know he wasn't that bad either at it, and it wasn't so annoying. "I didn't know that you played."
"I just started," he comments somehow I didn't believe him.
"Well you're good," I say and I think he blushed, which was interesting did monkeys blush? What was the thing, 'Humans are the only Animals that blush or need to;' whatever that means.
"Thanks you done?" he asks changing the subject.
"Am I doing this right?" I ask just because I wanted to see how far I could take this.
Lars grabs the paper, "hmmm...Yeah see it's easy."
"Yeah," I smile taking the paper, "I guess I made it harder then it really was."
"Don't worry about it Reggie," he grins. I couldn't help but smile back. I think he was sincere.
Then Twister walked in, "You're still here?"
"Yup." What time was it anyway?
"Well it's been two hours," Twister says.
Not possible, I didn't even know, "No Way!"
Lars grins, "It's cool."
"You knew!" I was shocked.
"Yeah that's how I knew you were having trouble," Lars grins.
"Hehe," Twister laughs, "You have to spend two hours with Lars I'm his bro and I can't stand being with him for ten minutes." Lars looks hurt. Wait didn't Twist tell me to give Lars a try in the first place.
"Right back at you Twist. So I'll see you tomorrow, Reg." Lars says.
"Sure, How about at my house," I say.
Twister spits out his soda, "Your house! Otto will harsh on you Reg if you let Lars in his house."
I shrug, "What's the big deal its not like Lars hasn't been in our house."
"Not really," Lars says. "You've picked Twist up hundreds of times," I got him ha.
"I've been to your house not in your house," Lars says. No way! He had to have been, what about...
"Really?" I ask the guys nod, "Well I'll have to give you a tour."
"Really?" Lars says, "I can come?"
"Sure," I say.
"This should be good I'm going too," Twister says.
"We'll work on the budget," I tell Lars he nods, "Later."
"I'm coming with you," Twister says following me.
