Chapter 18

After the Pam incident everyone was a bit shaken up. They all talked about it and decided that it was best kept a secret as discussing it with people outside the group could have disasterous effects. However as they got closer to the main part of the museum, they all felt hungry. The restaurant was nearby so they decided to take a detour to eat.

"Spark-EY wants a martini!" Whined Sparky pitifully

"But you know you can't hold them, you always make a mess everywhere!" Said Alan

As Timmy was pretty out of it being high with Spotty and SpDotty he took the situation into his own hands or 6 inch claws or whatever!

"Let him have the drink! Come on loosen up dude, when did you lose it?"

"Lose what?" Queried Alan.

"Your cool!" Said Timmy while high fiving Spotty and SpDotty but failing 'cos they were soooo out of it.

Lex smiled but was promptly slapped for being just so bloody annoying! Sir Kibblespit looked but couldn't give a damn since he was only concerned for his business. He wondered how the scavenging 'biz' could survive by itself. He sighed a mix of boredom and fatigue.

Meanwhile, The rest of the gang were looking anxiously looking at Bob waiting for him to die because it was soo obviously gonna happen.

"Are you dead yet?"Asked Hammy

"For the last time, NO!" Shouted Bob

"Ok, how bout now?"

"NO!!!" And with that Bob walked off into the darkness of the museum.

"I better go with him" Ellie said.

"Make sure he dies!!!!" called out Patrick from his morphine phase. They had pumped him full of the stuff and now his true feelings towards Hammy were starting to show. He kept rubbing his arm whenever he walked past, and he thought, he JUST thought, that maybe Hammy felt the same...

They were alone.

"John..."

"Sssh, my darling one, do not speak" John rushed to his bedside. "I know how you feel, and I feel it too."

"You do????" Patrick had tears in his eyes, and he was SURE they weren't just the morphine.

"Yes, Patrick, Paddy, I, I LOVE you."

"Hammy!!!! I love you too!!!!" and they kissed gently, then harder, harder, and Hammy jumped on top of Paddy and-

Ok. We'll leave it there.
