Chapter seven
"OK Toddy," said Luna. "I dare you to go next door and tell that guy who you are!"
"Is that even safe?" asked Wanda as Toad went white.
"Sure it is," replied Luna. "Nothing" dangerous for the great Toadzilla!"
"Fine," growled Toad. "But I'm not going in there!"
"You don't have to," said Luna. "Just tell him who you are."
"And that way he'll probably never phone you," added Wanda.
Todd trailed out of the room, a miserable look on his face. Pietro laughed evilly. "That's him out of the way. Let's drink his share of the beer!"
Aqua took no notice. She was too busy staring at the cat. It was giving her a really strange look . . .
"Earth to Aqua!" Fred waved a hand in front of her face.
Aqua blinked and refocused. "Hey, no one gave Fred a dare!"
"Shhhhhh!"
"Hey, you're right!" Pietro frowned and considered the options. "OK, I dare you to find out if the cat is a boy of a girl."
"Duh," said Luna. "It's a girl!"
I'm a boy!
"It's a boy!" insisted Aqua.
"Have you checked?" asked Lance.
"Well no, but I just know."
"Wait," said Luna. "You always call it she. You can't just change your mind!"
"I'll check the cat," said Fred with a sigh.
No way is he checking out my danglies!
"No way are you checking out his danglies!" Aqua frowned and gave the cat a suspicious look. Something was going on - or else she was drunker than she thought.
"It's just a cat." Fred lumbered after the animal, which leapt onto the curtains and hissed at him.
"He doesn't like that," warned Aqua.
"Here kitty-kitty-kitty…"
"Fred!" Lance scowled at his teammate.
"Sorry Lance. Here cat, come to Freddy!"
Fred lunged for the cat, which dropped to the floor and ran between his legs. Before it could escape the room, Pietro zipped over and caught it."Here you go Fred, it's all yours!"
He handed the spitting, hissing ball of fur to Fred, who tried to avoid the claws and turned it over."Whadda you know? It's a guy!"
"Told you," said Aqua.
"You already looked," scoffed Luna.
"I did not! The cat told me!"
The others gave her blank looks.
"The cat told you." Pietro nodded understandingly. "Right, of course it did. Hey wait! I can hear it too. The cat is saying you should give me a blow job!"
"Fuck YOU!"
"That's what the cat says."
Aqua threw a can of beer at his head, which he ducked easily.
"You think the cat talks to you." Wanda looked disbelieving.
"Not exactly, I just always seem to know what it's thinking. Like just now when it told me it was a boy and he didn't want Fred to make sure."
"Riiiiight." Lance smirked. "What's the cat saying now?"
Lance hides his own personal stash of cereal in his underwear drawer
"Lance hides cereal in his underwear."
"I do not!" Lance glared at Aqua. "I hide a box in my underwear drawer, it's not the same thing! You've been spying on me!"
"How could she?" asked Wanda. "When you snuck upstairs with the bowl, we were in the kitchen, remember?"
They all turned around and looked at the cat."Is it saying anything else?" asked Wanda.
"He doesn't do tricks," said Aqua.
"What I mean is, if we concentrate, maybe we can all hear the cat."
"We must be wasted," muttered Lance. "We're all sitting around waiting for the damn cat to talk."
The cat gazed from face to face with a look that could only be described as perplexed. Okay okay, I mind speak, got that?? Happy now?
Pietro's eyes nearly bugged out of his head, Fred looked as is he'd just entered the twilight zone and Wanda was smirking slightly, as if she'd known it all along. Aqua grinned in triumph, "See? I told you I wasn't crazy!"
Luna, who had been smiling the whole time patted her friend on the back. "Aqua, I wouldn't go that far..."
A loud, nasty remark was heard from outside and Todd came flying in the door. "I think I just had my first experience with a serial rapist, yo!"
The Brotherhood boys burst out in laughter, and the girls sniggered behind their beer cans. Luna leaned up against the armrest on the couch and grinned at the obviously flustered boy."Nahhhhh... I get that all the time"
Aqua took a sip of her beer and held it in her mouth for a moment as Pietro got the most feral grin she had ever seen. "You know Aqua, I don't think you've sung for us yet..."
Aqua gave him a look, "I sing, you sing."
Pietro held out a hand."Deal."
Aqua was surprised at the shock she got from shaking his hand. It was if tremors were flooding all through her body. She dropped his hand and pushed the sensation to the back of her mind.
"Your new name is Elijah, kay buddy?" Luna said, patting the cat's head.
Whatever you want, just keep petting.
Elijah reclined in Luna's lap and watched as his mistress approached the karaoke machine.Aqua picked up the mic and looked about half-heartedly as the song began.She moved her hips to the slow beat and began to sing.
"Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the victrola up high
Mama's dancing with baby on her shoulder
The sun is setting like molasses in the sky.
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything.
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for..."
Pietro watched her intently. he had to admit she had a beautiful voice and her body was perfectly matched to the beat. he ignored the small nagging voice in the back of his head that was constantly whispering, Admit it, you want to know why she doesn't fall to your feet like every other girl in the school…
"Black velvet and that little boy smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees
Black velvet if you please.
Up in Memphis the music's like a heat wave
White lightning, bound to drive you wild.
Mama's baby's in the heart of every schoolgirl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true.
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for..."
The way she moved was a sin, Pietro thought. The young woman was really getting into the song. He doubted Alannah Myles herself could've performed the song better.
"Black velvet and that little boy smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees
Black velvet if you please.
Every word of every song that he sang was for you.
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon,
What could you do?
Black velvet and that little boy smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees
Black velvet if you please.
Black velvet and that little boy smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees
Black velvet if you please. ...
If you pleaseIf you please…"
The rest of the Brotherhood clapped as the song ended, Luna whistled and Elijah gave a resounding WOOT! before Todd gave him the strangest look he could muster. What? Just trying it out...
Luna patted Toad's shoulder and smiled, "I'll explain later."
Pietro had regained his composure, not knowing that Wanda had seen him staring at Aqua. "Alright commoners, it's time to see The Amazing Quicksilver: Live in Concert!"
Aqua snorted as she sat down next to Luna. "You know, I can just see him saying 'if there's anything more important than my ego I want it found and shot right now."
Luna choked slightly on her beer and watched said mutant take the floor.Pietro gave his winning smile and turned up the machine.The bass had aqua nodding her head and Luna was all out head banging. "Ohhh I love this song!!"
Aqua said, grinning. ˜Well he may be a pompous asshole, but he likes good music."
Pietro grinned and began to sing.
"You strangle people with a pissing stare.
I can't believe I made it.
The way you operate is so severe,so severe.
I hate it.
You strangle people with a sneering grin.
I can't believe I made it.
Brooklyn is burning down the discotheque, discotheque.
Let's shake it."
"WHOOO!!!" shouted Luna, still head-banging.
"I feel the fire tonight.I hear, I hear the people cry.
I see all the people laugh
I got, I got what the people want.
You send a message in the atmosphere and everyone starts running.
The way you operate is so severe so severe, so cunning.
You send a message in your beady stareand everyone starts running.
Brooklyn is burning in the fire's sidefire's side.
We're dancing."
Aqua was denying that Pietro had an extremely sexy voice, but it was kind of hard when the speaker was right next to her head.
"I feel the fire tonight.I hear, I hear the people cry.
I see all the people laugh.
I got, I got what the people want.
You strangle people with a pissing stare.
I can't believe I made it.
The way you operate is so severe, so severe.I hate it."
Pietro didn't know it, but he was singing the song to Aqua. he was hoping every word would get to her, show her who he was inside. Or maybe he was just hoping she thought he was sexy and go out with him. (you have to remember, he is that shallow, folks.) Little did he know, he wouldn't have to try that hard if Aqua wasn't so bent on never trusting the cute guys again.
"You strangle people with a sneering grin.I can't believe I made it.
Brooklyn is burning down the discotheque.
Let's shake it.
I feel like fire tonight.I hear, I hear the people cry.
I see all the people laugh
I got, I got what the people want."
Luna was too busy cheering to see the weird look on her friends face. Pietro sat down next to Aqua. "I saw you checking me out."
Aqua shot him a cold look. "Egomaniac."
"You love it."
"You wish."
Wanda smiled and thought to herself. Just a few more drinks and they should be all over each other... She noticed the cat looking at her with a strange expression, kind of bemused but seeing as he was a cat.... "Heard that did you?"
Elijah looked like he'd smile if he could. I agree though, she likes him. The thing is, she won't admit it, even to herself.
Wanda's eyes seemed to glint as she watched her brother and her new friend bicker over something. But we'll be changing that won't we?
Yes. Yes we will
A/N- okay... I've let lance go in favor of trunks. ::huggles the demi-saiyan::
