"Ok, how many words can you make out of...Frankenstein?" Ray said. They were all sitting around in their chairs, and as you can see, making words out of different words. Time had suddenly slowed down for them, or as it seemed, stopped. It seemed like if one was bored, time would slow, seconds would be built on to minutes, as minutes became hours, and if you were doing something important or fun, it would be dwindled down to about 30 seconds.
"Hey, have you seen that ridiculously hilarious movie, Young Frankenstein?" Robbie laughed.
"Oh yeah, the one with Gene Wilder in it!" Lily smiled. The first smiles came upon them in a while as an interesting subject was coming up.
"I thought it was good, and sort of creative that it was in black and white, with a feel to the movie as in the original Frankenstein. Even though the movie was a sheer mockery of the original, it was good in the sense that it was almost a tribute, you know?" Travis said.
"Hey, Travis! Your smarts are showing again!" Ray poked. Travis furrowed his eyebrows and shook his head. If there was one thing that Travis could absolutely not stand was someone, if anyone, making fun of his intellectual side. Didn't people appreciate the smart ones anymore?
"I loved that Igor guy, he's the greatest!" Robbie tried to strike something else into the conversation before there was an awkward silence.
" 'It's not Igor, it's I-gor!' That's good stuff...." Ray was laughing.
"Yeah! 'Roll roll! Roll in zhe hay!' " Robbie joined in with the laughter and they were both cracking up to themselves over the movie, while Lily and Travis glanced at eachother and shook their heads.
Travis gave another secret glance towards Lily as she watched the other two boys laughing to the point of tears. He smiled faintly and watched as her hair fell down over her face. The pale strips of blonde draping over her soft and rosy cheek, gently gliding down to her perfectly shaped shoulders. His eyes were caressing her whole body, staring her up and down, silence now droning out the laughter and now the faint talking. His stare had gone on for a bit too long and now Robbie and Ray, along with Lily, were the ones to be staring at Travis.
"Travis? Hey! You there, buddy?" Ray flailed his arms in front of Travis' face and Travis had finally zoomed back into the harsh reality.
"Oh...Sorry...I was spacing out for a minute or two..." Travis blinked his wise sea-green eyes and he tried quickly to think of something to say before anyone could suspect anything. "So! Anyone notice the irony in Nostradamus' predictions and the world today?" he made a sort of laugh as his eyes switched from Ray to Lily to Robbie.
"Alright," Lily was changing the subject. "Choose...Umm...Staying home with some kind of foreign Chinese disease or...suffering at school with the worst cold ever."
"I'd have to say that Chinese thing...I mean, you'd get to stay home and suffer and not get anyone else infected with it." Robbie tried to sound a bit scientific with his explanation.
"Travis?" Lily changed her gaze to Travis and Ray was getting offended now that Lily hadn't even tried to ask him yet.
"The cold, definitely the cold. You'd know that you could get over it, and yet if you had a foreign kind of disease, it might not be curable and then you could possibly die. But from what I know, I can't recall any kind of Chinese disease..." Travis trailed off somewhere.
"I...." Ray hung his head as he didn't know what to say at this moment. At this point in time, he was wondering. His mind was processing something that was known as something bad...
Lily and Travis. Together. His worst nightmare.
