CHAPTER THREE
When they got to the space-port, Harper was ready and waiting. He was sitting reading a flexi-mag about engineering and was so engrossed he didn't notice Trance come up to him.
"Hey Blondie!" said Trance, popping her head round Harper's shoulder, scaring the living daylights out of him.
"For FREAKS sake Trance. How many times have I told you not to sneak up like that!" He was not happy at all.
Trance giggled to herself. She was always playing jokes on him.
"Don't be grumpy now. Remember, you're a incredibly handsome genius. Ahead of your time even!" She joked.
Harper smiled to himself and puffed himself out, "Yeah, I am, aren't I! Big, Freakin' genius! Ready to go then?" he said as he picked up his shopping bags.
"Yep! Though I have someone for you to meet." She stood aside to reveal Guinevere standing behind her. Guinevere gave a nervous giggle and a little wave.
He was gobsmacked. "Wow Trance! Is she the same as you, Trance?" he asked as he saw her tail swishing behind her.
"Yep!! She's coming to stay with us for a while, so make her feel welcome." She said, playfully hitting him on the shoulder.
"Did Dylan say that was ok then?" he asked looking back at Trance. He didn't want to get into trouble again because of her.
"Of course silly! She'll be like an exchange student. Now don't be rude, introduce yourself." She pushed him towards Guinevere, and suddenly Harper realised how pretty she was.
He put one hand in his hair and stuck the other out in front of him, "Uh, hi! I'm Seamus Zelazny Harper. But just call me Harper!"
Guinevere took his hand and gave it a gentle shake, "Nice to meet you Harper. I'm Guinevere Le Fay. Shouldn't we get going and catch our flight, before it leaves without us!" She pointed to the Flight board, indicating that it was the last boarding call for their flight.
"SHIT!!" cried Harper, grabbing his bags and the girls, before running towards their gate.
"Is he always like this?" Guinevere asked Trance.
Trance gave a little amused smile, "Yes, all the time. But you get used to it."
