Academic Arguments

Dustin and Brooke sat silently as Tori walked back into the room. Shane fiddled with his thumbs and blew the air from his nose harder every time he breathed out. He did receive a whack from Brooke and then by Dustin but he kept it up. Wondering about only one thing...

"Hey, what academy are you sending Kim to?"

"Dude, try the wind." Dustin answered.

"You told her?" Tori asked from the doorway.

"My wife. Dude, I should never keep secrets from the woman who loves me." Dustin joked.

"Too bad he didn't have that same outlook." Shane stated, pointing at Hunter.

"I'm sorry, what?" He asked. "Secrets?"

"Yeah but what makes you so sure she doesn't keep secrets from you?" Tori asked.

Brooke snorted and laughed. She was right, not unlikely for Tori to be right. Her point was accepted rudely as Dustin glared at her.

"You keep secrets?" Dustin asked.

"No way." Brooke lied. "Just that fact that Kim's not yours."

Tori choked. She stared at Brooke with a dumbfounded look on her face.

"Kidding." She laughed. "Gees, you're all so gullible."

"Sorry." Tori apologized.

"So...what academy are you sending Katie to?" Shane asked.

Tori smiled and stated Thunder but Hunter replied with Wind.

"Dude, she can't go to both." Dustin joked. "You know that right?"

"Boy, you're in a pickle huh?" Brooke asked. "That's what happens..."

"When what, I dare you to finish that sentence." Tori challenged her.

"I meant to say...darn...you'll work through it."

"Let's think this through logically..." Shane began.

"Logics?" Brooke questioned.

"You are daring aren't you?" Shane muttered.

"Try me." Tori smirked.

"I think we should send her to the wind place." Hunter broke the fight up.

"Why?" Dustin asked.

"Honour?"

"Why don't we put her in normal school?" Tori asked seriously.

"Yeah, so maybe she'll grow up and actually be successful." Brooke teased. "Instead of a mechanic and a girl with no job."

"Maybe she'll be a pro boxer so she can beat on you old lady." Shane teased.

Tori covered her eyes and chuckled.
