Episode 1: What the…… Who Invited the Goddess?
It is about 11am in the morning and everyone is running around like crazy. Keiichi, Morgan, and Kristen keep on running into each other in the hallway and the stairs. Candi, Helen, and Devin running into each other in the kitchen. Jim is running in and out of the laundry room, jumping up and down, and waiting for his work shirt and apron to be done in the dryer. Alex, Martin and Nick are fighting over who gets in the bathroom next, but then Megumi sneaks in and slams the door on the guys, they realize what happens and start banging on the door, yelling for her to hurry up. Tamiya, Ootaki, Sayoko and Aoshima are running into the garage and taking off on their bikes, waving goodbye to us, they were heading for the library. Sora is leaning against the beam of the house in the hallway, shaking her head, watching up running around like crazy. I stopped and looked at her funny " What did you mean by that, shaking your head?" Sora said as she was walking off, " All of you guys running around likes scared chickens, why bother?" I was saying as I was eating breakfast " Well some people have classes in 2 hours, hey by the way it is 11:30am, don't you have classes yet?" Sora walked into her bedroom and before she closed the door she said " nope, remember Candi I take night classes, so try to keep it down I'm going back to sleep!" then slams her bedroom door. I say kinda snotty while walking back to my room to get ready for class " oh yeah I forgot!" I walked back out and knocked on the bathroom door while the guys were still arguing "Megumi, can I come in and brush my teeth?" I heard a clicking of the lock on the door and see it open by Megumi " Sure" I walked in and said "thanks" I relocked the door and grabbed the my toothbrush and paste and about to put in my mouth " nice music Megumi" brushing my teeth and bopping my head to the music. She said "thanks" as she was getting dressed and laughing because the guys were still fighting outside the bathroom door. We walked out and I went back to my room to pick up my books and walked down the stairs yelling "Megumi, Kristen, Keiichi, Morgan, Helen, and Devin let's go were are going to be late." While I was putting on some makeup by the front door. "lets go guys I'm giving you 2 minutes to get your butts down here or I'm leaving without you!" They ran down the stairs, but Devin and Morgan tripped and fell down the stairs and made Helen, Keiichi, Kristen, fell over backwards and they all were on top of each other, Alex, Martin, and Nick came to the top of the stairs to see what the noise was. I giggled a little and walked and stood there " oh you guys always don't watch were you are going, do you?" I helped Helen and Morgan up, and then Keiichi grabs my hand and pulls me down on top, laughing, "ok guys, we have to go and get to our classes, can someone help me I can't get up because I have a skirt on?" Nick, Martin, and Alex helped the others and me up. We thanked them, and then ran out saying goodbye to the boys, Devin and I kissed Nick and Alex on the cheek and ran out to walk to school, and Helen found Jim and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then as soon as we ran out Alex did a mad dash and got in the bathroom before the other guys realizes what happened the minute we got out the door Jim grabbed his apron and shirt and ran out of the house and ran past us, kissing Helen on the cheek and since he ran so fast he made the 6 of us spin around. We finally stopped and said "bye to him" because he had to go and get to work her was going to be late! Jim told us " Alex was spending a long time in the bathroom and Nick and Martin were pounding on the door and yelling at him (and you'll never believe this) Alex turned up the radio in there while he was getting ready for school which he was going to meet up with us later, so was Martin and Nick. We got to Harper a then went into our English class, we walked out afterwards and we all said, " Boring " I said, " well what do we do because we have a 2 hour break?" Helen looked at her watch " hey I thought we were supposed to meet the others, we're late!" Everyone looked at their watches looked up and screamed "oh my god!!!" We ran to the cafeteria and saw the others waiting for us all 5 of them with their arms crossed and giving us the evil eye- Nick, Tamiya, Ootaki, Sayoko and Aoshima. We stopped and said " Sorry, class ran late!" They smiled and said " it was ok come on let's eat I'm starved!" we all said " all right!" We all got something to eat and sitting, talking. I asked Nick " did you ever get your shower?" Nick said " yeah after Martin and Alex took their sweet time and that made me late for shop class." The girls laughed a little then Devin spoke up " why don't you get up earlier or do it the night before like some of us?" We all agreed with Devin. Nick said, " Ok guys stop picking on me!" We laughed and the girls and I looked at our watches, realizing that we only had a few minutes to get to volleyball class and we still had to change, we said " bye" to everyone else and changed in the building where the cafeteria was and ran for it, we just made it when they were picking teams whew! Devin, Helen, Megumi, Morgan, Kristen, Sayoko and I got to be on the same team. We won and since we had no more classes we took a shower and walked home, we got home and changed to our old clothes and started cleaning the house since it was our turn to it. The others came home and we decided instead of making dinner because it was 8pm. We voted for pizza delivery. I picked up the phone and started to dial but that is when the guys decided to start screaming and tickling attacking us and chase the girls with pillows and water guns. Helen bumped into me while I was dialing I must have hit a wrong button because the voice on the other end scared me half to death! I froze up and my face went white, the guys stopped when I dropped the phone and fainted. Alex picked it up and heard on the other end "hello, this is the Goddess Help Center, How can we help you? Hello?" Alex said, "Hi, my girlfriend must have hit the wrong button we were trying to order a pizza!" The lady on the other side and said "my Peorth, what is your emergency that you need the goddess help?" Alex was screaming in the phone " We were just trying to order pizza? Do you guys understand?" Then Peorth said " ok what is your address?" Alex looked at the phone weirdly, sighing and said " 1305 North Parade Road" then hung up. Alex went up next to me and picked me up and put me on the couch. I woke up a couple of minutes later and asked, "what happened?" Alex told me that I fainted! I told everyone "the last thing I remember is not calling the pizza place I called this goddess hotline!" Everyone couldn't believe it! I got up and called the pizza place and ordered 2 pizza's- one vegetarian and the other one was all sausage and pepperoni! I got at the phone and asked Alex "what happened next?" Alex said " nothing I just laid you on the couch and then you woke up!" Kristen said, " Why did you call the so called goddess?" I shook my head and shrugged my shoulders " I didn't mean too I hit a wrong button when I was dialing and that's when I got them! Alright who started the fight?" I said grabbing a water gun and spraying the guys then running upstairs. The girls grabbed the other water guns, sprayed the guys and followed me upstairs to hide. The guys said " hey" looking around and saw we all took the water guns and they had to grab the spray bottles and chased after us. They went around the corner and we sprayed them, then ran down the stairs, the 8 of us hide in the closet we all tried to stay quiet when we heard footprints above us and they stopped I front of the closet. After a while I said " I don't hear them anymore!" whispering. I opened the door slowly and all of a sudden I heard a THUD I looked around the side of the closet door and saw Alex knocked out on the floor and the guys all kneeling down trying to wake him up. I yelled " oh my god, did I do that?" kneeling down with tears in my eyes. "Poor Alex look at that bump on his forehead! Did he even see the door opening?" I asked. Martin shook his head and said " nope, he was telling us to be quiet so we can speak up on you guys!" I got up ran to the bathroom, wet a towel, walked back and put it on his forehead and put a pillow under his head, then the doorbell rang. Devin jumped up and down, ran to the door, shoved the money in the pizza delivery guys hand, grabbed the pizza's and slammed the door and walked to the kitchen putting the pizza boxes down and grabs a slice and starts to eat. " Devin, how could you eat now?" I said. I look and the others are in the kitchen eating pizza, I didn't eat I waited for Alex to wake up. It was getting late and everyone was heading for bed, now I was getting worried he hasn't woken up for 2 hours, Martin and Nick told everyone they were going to stay up with me and wait for Alex to wake up. Devin said "ok goodnight" giving Nick a kiss. I said " guys you don't have to stay up with me. I'll be fine." Martin and Nick said " nah its fine, I won't be able to sleep while my 2 friends are down here." I said, " oh ok" Martin sat next to me Indian style on the floor; Nick did the same on the other side. After a while I started to fall asleep and almost fell on Nick who was already asleep sitting up! I woke up before I leaned against him I told him sorry and stretched. " You know Martin I wish he would wake up I'm so worried." I said. Nick woke up and both guys gave me a hug. Nick said " he will don't worry, you look tired Candi, why don't you go to sleep?" I said, "Nah I'm fine." I started falling asleep, looking over to Nick who just fell asleep, laying on his side on the floor, I yawned and stretched again closing my eyes and then I must have fallen asleep. When I woke up I was being poked and pinched by Devin, I looked up and saw why! Nick was snoring away still lying on his side, I was lying against Nick's side and Martin was lying on me and asleep. I turned bright red, jumping up, making Martin fall backwards hitting his head on the coffee table and waking up and rubbing his head asking "what the hell is all this yelling?" I was stuttering looking at all the girls behind Devin, I looked down to where we left Alex and he was gone! Martin stood up next to me, kicking Nick's back to wake him up; he woke seeing Devin yelling at me. I stopped her and said "Devin, you ought to trust me better then that! Nothing happened both guys stayed up with me watching Alex, by the was where is he? I can't believe you don't trust me." I said walking off and looking back at Martin, Nick and the girls walking into the kitchen except for Helen and Kristen and Devin with tears in my eyes, whispering " that really hurt Devin some friend." I started really crying and ran to my room, plopping on my bed, bawling. Downstairs Helen and Kristen were trying to decide whether or not to check up on me Nick stood up and said "girls why don't you let her settle down." They nodded their hands and walked to the kitchen and sat down to breakfast. Meanwhile Devin and Nick were fighting "I can't believe you like Candi, you are my boyfriend, how dare you make a pass at her!" Martin was yelling at Devin " oh will you stop, nothing happened!" Nick was shaking his head saying and grabbing Devin's shoulders " I can't believe you don't trust me, we sat by her all night, gave her a friends hug from both of us being really worried about Alex, and so what she fell asleep on me so what we were all leaning against each other. Martin and I don't care if she was sleeping against us she's a friend who stayed awake waiting for her boyfriend to wake up and fell asleep in the process, and if you don't believe us then maybe we shouldn't be together. He and Martin both started walking upstairs. Devin said running up the stairs " wait a minute Nick and Martin, I do thrust you guys ok? I am so sorry I just couldn't believe what I saw this morning and never could the rest of everyone! I guess I got a little jealous. Can we still be girlfriend/ boyfriend?" Devin goes and hugs both guys. "Sure" Nick kissed Devin passionately. "Devin, where did Alex go?" Nick asked. Devin said " he's in his room taking a nap something about his head hurting, well no wonder with what happened last night, oh well its breakfast time" Devin skipped down the stairs and walking into the kitchen. Nick yelled to Devin " get out here you." Devin walked to the head of the stairs with coffee in her hands " what do you want now?" Nick sighed and said " Devin, I think you owe Candi an apolize!" both Martin and Nick giving her the evil eye. Devin sighed and said " yeah your right, I really pinched her kind of hard and then yelled at her, making her cry, but she usually doesn't cry, she usually just get mad and fights with me!" Devin standing on the bottom step of the stairs looking at the guys. Nick sighed and looked at Martin and sat down on the stairs. "Devin I think you broke her heart, she thinks you are her sister, all you girls and us as brother and for not trusting her you broke her heart!" Nick said. Meanwhile while the 3 were talking I came out of my room, went into the bathroom, locked the door, got undressed and took a long hot bath, relaxing in the tub, reading my Japanese comic book on my favorite series- Love Hina and listening to my headphones. Devin walking up with Nick and Martin up the stairs and then knocking on my door. Then opening it and looking inside, then slams it and turns around almost white, stuttering, " Nick, she's not in here at all. Where did she go?" he said wide eyes and looking to Martin, looking back at Devin " you must have really upset her and she's gone somewhere!" Devin thinking out loud pacing " ok where are her favorite spots? The library, the garden and the reading room. Let's get the others to help us!" the guys agreed then Martin spoke "uh Devin I think you better get Alex, remember Candi doesn't know where he is?" Nick said, " I think you should!" Devin said heading for Alex's room " yeah your probably right! Alex is you awake?" Devin knocking on his door, he goes to the door and opens it rubbing his eyes. "Yeah what's up?" Devin started to tear a little and started to stutter " well I got jealous when I saw Candi on Nick's side and Martin on her side sleeping. All 3 were waiting for you to wake up and so I pinched and poked Candi making her wake up, making Martin bump his head on the coffee table and nick then woke up I yelled at her for the position they were in and made her upset but she doesn't usually get upset she mostly yells back, well anyway I wanted to apolize to her and now I can't find her, she disappeared! She was really upset! We thought you and the others could help?" Martin and Nick came around Devin. Nick asked Alex "Hey bro, how's your head?" giving the secret handshakes to Alex. Alex said " not bad, does Candi know I'm awake because when I woke up you guys were in that position and I saw her face all teared stained." Nick said, " Dude, she knows you are awake but she doesn't know how you feel, and yes she was really worried last night, she was crying. She felt so bad about hitting you in the head with the closet door!" Alex rubbing his head " so that's what happened the last thing I remember is telling the guys to be quiet because I knew you girls were in the closet but after that it's a blank, omg we better go find her then where do you want me to start looking?" Alex running out of his room and ready to go and sounding worried looking to Devin. Then Devin said stopping him and the others " I think we better get the others. Come on I think some are in the kitchen!" They ran down the stairs and only found Helen, Kristen and Jim in the kitchen, Devin panting saying, " where are the others? We need your help Candi disappeared" and she told the 3 what happened. Helen's eyes changed colors (she does this when she's mad) screaming, throwing Devin against the wall, the guys got scared to death and running out of the room looking for the others. Helen says "yes we will help you find my close friend, I can't believe you did this to her, how can you not trust her?" Helen letting go and walking out of the kitchen with Kristen right behind her stuttering " why did she do that it wasn't a surprise to us not to me anyway?" Helen stopped and dropped her head and sighing, " no it wasn't a surprise to me but Devin went to far this time I can't believe this! Come on let's look in the garden for her" Kristen said " ok" They went out to the garden. Meanwhile Devin is sighing and trying to recover from Helen's grip then gets up and runs to the backyard and finds Morgan, Megumi, Sayoko, and Sora all sitting on the grass soaking up some sun. Devin ran to them cautionary and told them what happened and if they could help find Candi?" They said " sure" getting up, wiping themselves off and giving Devin a dirty glare. Devin nodded and said, " thanks and could you guys check the public library down the street?" They all turned around and said " sure" then walked to the library to go and find me. Meanwhile the 3 guys found the other 4 guys and told them the story they said, " Sure, I can't believe this why did she do this?" Nick said, " I think it was jealousy, oh well can you guys check the mall please, Candi might be there?" They said "sure" and walked to the mall. Alex, Martin, and Nick caught up with Devin and Kristen and asked " any word from Candi?'' Devin and Kristen stuttered " no nothing"
Nick walked up to Devin and pushed her chin up to see the marks from Helen ad asked her, "Dev, hun what are these marks from?" Devin looked at him and said " Helen, her eyes changed and she got mad and shoved me against the wall did you feel the bump? How bad is it?" Nick felt the bump " it's not so big, that is what you get when you piss off the people who live here!" Devin said " well Helen and Jim, went to look in the garden. Morgan, Megumi, Sayoko and Sora went to the public library to see if they can find her that's her other favorite spots." The others nodded and Nick spoke up " well keiichi, Tamiya, Ootaki, and Aoshima went to the mall to see if they can find her. So Alex, Martin, and I are going to check this library/ reading room! Come on guys!" and they walked Devin and Kristen yelled "ok." Devin spoke "let's check around here again, come on!" Kristen followed her and said "ok." Meanwhile I'm relaxing in the tub reading my comic book and listening to my headphones, and then I got a weird feeling, looking up and saw a face looking at me. I screamed really loud dropping my comic book and headphones, wrapping the towel around and hightailed it out of there, shaking and screaming really loud in the hallway. Alex, Nick, Martin, Kristen and Devin ran from different directions and all asked me "what happened and where were you?" well I wasn't still talking to Devin so I turned to the others, still shaking and said " I was in the bathtub, listening to my headphones reading my new comic book, when I had a weird feeling, looked up and saw a face looking at me and smiling!" turning to Alex. " Alex are you ok, I'm so sorry about that, I was really worried about you with that bump from the door!" I was still shaking Alex gave me a hug and a kiss, " I know you were, I saw your face when I woke up this morning, all tear stained and you fell asleep with Martin and Nick, I already said thanks to them for staying up with you. I'm ok, I'm not mad man are you shaking its ok settle down, I'm here now. Don't worry Candi? Candi?" still holding me, I faint right in his arms. "Candi, omg she fainted, it must have been because of all this worrying about me and the excitement." He said sitting down on the floor with me lying in his lap, passed out. Martin kneeled down and checked my pulse saying "yep she fainted, Alex it might be also, she didn't eat any pizza last night." Nick knelt down too, brushing the hair out of my eyes saying " she was too worried about you, she thought you might be mad when you woke up, she even yelled at the others for not worrying and eating instead!" Alex laughed a little "that's my girl!" Alex stood up carried me and put me on my bed. Kristen watched us and then hide in her room, watching the whole thing, right before Alex closed my door, Devin sighed and started to cry "I forgot about that, she didn't eat at all I guess she is still mad at me!" Devin ran into her room crying. Nick wanted to run after her but decided to help the guys instead. The 3 guys grabbed baseball bats and headed for the bathroom. They slowly opened the door and saw a girl floating in the air, having my earphones on and trying to read my comic book but couldn't because she had it upside down, laughing uncontrabbly, she is about 21 years old, long blond hair, markings on her face and her dress was a long blue and white. The girl looks up at the guys, putting down the comic book and taking off my earphones and says, "hi my name is Belldandy, I'm from the Goddess Crises Center I was sent here because someone wanted a wish granted?" the guys were speechless, then Alex finally spoke up " you must have been the one my girlfriend was talking to before she fainted that was what scared her, she was trying to call the pizza palace." The guys sighed and put the bats down. "No that was Peorth, the recipients at the Help Center who told me I should come here!" Belldandy said. Alex laughed a little and said, "Well you scared her that's for sure!" Belldandy tilted her head and looked at the 3 guys weirdly. Then floated near the guys, they walked backwards a little tripping over the bats and fell out in the hallway on their backs. Belldandy stopped in the doorway and spoke " why do you back away from me? I'm not going to hurt you?" the guys stood up and Alex said " oh ok we weren't sure, we have never meet a angel that flies that's all, come on I'll introduce you to the others." Belldandy walked near the guys and said, " Ok, sure" they walked to Kristen's room, knocked on the door; Kristen opened it and said "hello" very shyly. Martin smiled and said " Kristen this is Belldandy, the one that scared Candi and she's from the Goddess Crises office, you remember the one Candi froze about?" Kristen came out of her room and bowed, Belldandy bowed too and then giggled. Kristen said " Hi" and they walked to Devin's room and did the same thing. Devin and Kristen walked with Belldnady and the guys and then Alex went to my door and knocked I yelled " yeah what is it? Come in" Alex opened the door, everyone walked in except for Devin, and I waved to everyone " hey what's going on?" looked at Belldandy stuttering "that's the girl that scared me in the tub." Alex gave me a hug and kiss. " Its ok Candi, this is Belldandy and remember tried to call the pizza place last night but you hit the wrong number and called the Goddess Help Center!" I said " yeah so?" he said "she is from that she thought that a wish was too be granted that's why she's here" I stood and said " ok sorry that was rude of me sorry hi I'm Candi" bowing to her. She bowed back and then I told them I wanted to finish my bath. I walked to the bathroom door and giggled " oh guys and Belldandy please don't sneak up on me ok?" They all laughed and said " ok we won't!" By the time I got back in the bathroom the others came home and Alex, Martin, Kristen and Devin introduced Belldandy to the others. They all said " hi" and bowed then Helen said, " Did you find Candi? None of us did!" Alex said, " She got mad at Devin and ran to soak in the tub Belldandy came in there to say hi and scared her. She ran out and fainted in my arms the woke up a little bit ago and went back in the tub. She'll be out in a bit?" Helen said " ok good!" Everyone went back to what they were doing. Meanwhile I warmed up the water and got in and finished up, ran into my room and got dressed in a yellow long skirt and a t-shirt, went downstairs into the kitchen where some people were giving me hugs! I said "hi" Belldandy was sitting down in one of the chairs drinking tea; I sat next to her " ok Bell, if you want to live here, we'll have to get you a room." Alex came in and went and sat next to me giving me a sandwich "but Candi, we didn't even ask her if she wants to live here with 8 girls and 8 guys." I said with a full mouth, swallowing some " true but if she does we have empty rooms!" Helen walked around the table and knelt down besides Belldandy " Bell do you want to live here with us? What was your mission?" Belldandy looked at all of us and said " well I was sent here is when Candi called but you all have been so nice to me, I would lie to live here but I would have to call my leader, excuse me?" she got up and ran into the hallway to call her leader, everyone looked at me I stood up and stared in the air, stuttering " you mean as a wish oh my god! All I did was hit one number wrong when you guys were chasing each other! Can't have a genie follow me around, granting all my wishes! I mea I would like it but that's not the point what will the people at school think with things popping in and out of nowhere! And what wishes I don't need any I have everything I really need, friends, boyfriend, clothes, roof over my head." Everyone gave each other hugs the I went back and sat down, putting my hands on my head. Helen and Alex came around patting my back; Helen said, " Its ok Candi, this is sudden." I turned around to both of them and asked, " what would you guys do?" Alex said "I don't know" Helen said " I don't know either, I probably would have to think about it but maybe you can make the wish for her to live here and either go to school with us or get a job?" I was thinking and said, " thanks guys you are the greatest, I think I'll tell her that I'll have to think about it!" nodding my head to everyone I said " well what do you think guys?" Everyone chimed in "great " I said " good, omg, Helen, Alex and I have to go to the grocery shopping before it closes!" looking at my watch, getting up and all of a sudden stopping and looked at each other. "Oh my god, who can watch Belldandy I forgot about her! Devin and Nick can you do it?" Devin and Nick looked at each other, sighed and Nick said "no sorry Candi we can't I promised Devin a picnic today!" I sighed and looked to Kristen, Keiichi, and Morgan they shook their heads "no" I sighed again " Jim, Megumi, Taimiya, Sayoko, Toshiyuki, or Sora please?" They said "nope sorry, we have to get to the library to work on a project for school." I turned to Ootaki, Mishima I said " please I can't bring her to the store, we still have to teach her earth things if she is going to live here!" They got up and said "sorry we have to go to the store to get some school supplies " and they walked out the door. I watched them all walk out, turned around and sighed, " ok, she'll have to come with us but she has to go in normal clothes. I'm a sorry guy! I can't believe the others wouldn't help!" Alex spoke up " I know and they were all lying, I never am asking them for anything, we all live together why can't everyone help!" as Alex punches the wall. Helen speaks up " those sometimes pain in the neck friends/ roommates" (in real life they are not they are great friends sorry Helen, Kristen, Jim, Devin, Martin, Alex, and Nick it was a plot idea) Belldandy comes back in and her head is down, she quietly looks up at the 3 of us saying " um Candi we have problem, I can't stay here unless you wish me to stay and then I will but otherwise no!" I look at Helen and Alex, they push me a little towards Belldandy, sighs, "ok, cool Belldandy I wish you would live here with us and either go to college or work! Ok? We all wished you would live here!" Belldandy smiled and jumped up and down, like a little kid getting candy, hugging all 3 of us saying, "thank you let me call Peorth and tell her I'm staying, yeah!" She skips and runs to the phone, she starts dialing. I giggle and look out to the hallway and tell her "then your going with Helen, Alex and I to the store to buy food and you will have to change your clothes. Ok?" Belldandy giggled and said " ok, but why do I have to change, Hey Peorth , Candi made the wish. I'm staying here and living with 16 people here and trying this thing called college. So I just wanted to tell you bye!" she skipped back to the kitchen and stopped and said " ok Candi what's wrong with this outfit?" twirling around. Helen and I spoke up with Alex shaking his head "it's a little out of this world, no one wears that around here, we wear skirts, shirts, pants and t-shirts like we are wearing." We twirled around. Belldandy looked at us weirdly "huh" she said. Helen and I grabbed Belldandy's wrist and brought her upstairs into my room, I gave her a long sky blue skirt and white long sleeve shirt. I asked Helen "what do you think of those on her?" Helen shook her head saying "good choice" I pushed Belldandy up to the bathroom and said " bell try those on in the bathroom, ok?" she said "ok" locking the door and put on the clothes. Meanwhile Helen and I went downstairs to where Alex was. Belldandy came down a few minutes later and looked at us, twirling around said "well?" I said " it's great on you, what do you think Alex and Helen?" Alex looked at me then Helen and then whistled at Bell, making her blush and came down the stairs. I hit in the stomach, giving him a weird look. Then looked over at Helen and she gave me and Belldandy a thumbs up. We smiled then walked to the store as we were going in Belldandy stopped in the middle of the parking lot and stared at the store her mouth dropped open and you can hear this "wow!" I grabbed her hand because she almost got run over by a car. We grabbed a cart and I said "come on Bell, let's go and one more thing, while you are in public like malls and stores you don't fly, ok? You can fly in the apartment only ok?" Belldandy looked at me strangely "why?" Helen spoke up " no one fly's around in this world just fly in the apartment ok?" Belldandy nodded her head and we went into the store, separated, but before Alex left for the magazine rack some guys that we pasted, whistled at the 3 of us. Which made Alex very jealousy. I looked at him "oh Alex are you jealousy?" he looked down and said "what do you think, hon.? I'm going to check out the magazine rack and got to meet some guys." He started walking away towards the aisle. I said " oh ok Alex see ya later." And looked back to the girls, Belldandy was staring at me asking, "What was that about?" Helen and I looked at each other, giggling I speaking up " ok Bell, that was your first flirting lesson, that is how guys are around here, that's why Alex was jealousy! Do you get it?" Belldandy looked at me, then Helen very weirdly. As we went down a aisle picking out a chicken as we see Belldandy staring at the lobsters, then putting her hand in the tank and pulling out a lobster, we stared at her and turned white and grabbing her wrist. Helen put the lobster back saying "sorry" to the saleslady. Then we walked back to our cart I spoke up "you don't do that Bell." She said "Why? Man I have a lot to learn in this world!" I said "Bell we will teach you don't worry." Bell shaking her head "ok, that's how guys flirt! But how do girls (like us) flirt?" I looked at Helen and she looked at me. I asked Helen after clearing my throat "um Helen do want to take this one?" Helen started walking away from us as she did she said " sure, ok Bell watch this, but don't tell Jim?" she giggled we both said "sure" and watched her go and pick up 2 different packages of Deli Meats and walks sexy up to a busboy and asked "Could you tell me the difference between these 2 different brands of meat?" the guy was speechless, he was stuttering while he was telling Helen, Belldandy and I were giggling a little, she started to walk away saying to the boy "thank you for the information and I think I'll take this one." She walks away and comes back to us and puts the meat in the cart. She smiles and said "see Bell , that is one way. When we get outside Candi will show you the other way, ok?" I smiled and said "sure but don't tell Alex, good going Helen, he watching you!" Helen looked back and waved sexily, smiling. We walked further and the guy that Helen flirted with kept on following us asking "do you need anymore help?" we told him "no but thanks anyway!" he walked off, we finished our shopping, paid the bill and when we walked outside I saw these cute 3 guys, I told the girls "lesson 2 watch this, this is my scene!" I took the cart, put my sunglasses on and walked on, Helen and Belldandy watching and walking slow. The guys turned around and whistled at me, I looked over, brought my glasses down a little enough to see my eyes and said in a sexy voice "hiyah boys, nice weather huh?" I walked past them and Helen and Belldandy right behind me and the guys whistled at us and stuttered, they followed us ¾ of a way home, and finally offered to carry our bags home, I looked at Helen and gave her a look and whispered " what do you think?" Helen whispered back " go for it, maybe it will teach Alex a lesson? By the way where is he?" I said to the guys " ok sure thanks." Handing my 2 bags to the first guy, Helen and Bell dandy gave their bags to the other 2. I whispered to Helen and Belldandy " he's probably still by the magazine rack or found some of his friends." We started walking halfway home. Alex ran up to us, panting, "why didn't you wait for me girls? Who are these guys?" I turned around "oh Alex I'm sorry, I thought I better not bother you, you were talking to your buddies and these guys saw us struggling with these bags so they are helping us why?" He looked from me, Helen, then Belldandy and then walked in front of the guys and said, " ok, I'm here now, so give me the bags and disappear guys!" Alex grabbed all the bags and yelled at the guys. The guys wouldn't let go, the 3 boys and Alex were yelling at each other on the sidewalk, the girls and I blushed, blushing bright red, we couldn't believe it how Alex was so jealous. I sighed and got in the middle of it, yelling at Alex and the guys and you would not believe what happened! I got punched in the cheek and landed on my knees, tears in my eyes. Alex punched out the guys, grabbed all the bags and ran home. Helen and Belldandy bent down, looking at me trying to settle down, Helen laughed a little and said, " Well I guess your lesson worked halfway Candi! Hey are you ok? Your shaking?" I looked at Helen and started to cry " shut up Helen, I'm hurt look at this." Pointing to my bruise on my cheek from Alex, I continued, " how do you think I feel? I'm going to kill him, can you believe he left us here?" Helen helped me up and we hugged, I told her "I'm sorry I guess I'm just hurting, sorry about yelling at you, I'm not going to let him come with us again, that's for sure. Wait a minute its Kristen, Devin and Martin's turn next time, come on girls let's go home so I can take care of this bruise and Alex! Well Belldandy did you learn some things besides the one thing that I did?" Belldandy nodded " yep, thanks girls." Smiling we all "awed" and hugged, and continued walking home. Meanwhile Alex comes running in passing Devin, Nick, Martin, Kristen and Jim. They wondered why he is running so fast with all the bags. They followed him in the kitchen and Devin asked, " why do you have all the bags and where are the girls?" Alex stopped, turning around looking at them his head fell down, he sighed and sat down on a chair with his head in his hands "well there where these 3 guys helping them I got mad and yelled, grabbing the bags and punched out the 3 guys the first time then I accentely punched Candi and then ran for it, oh am I in trouble when candi gets home!" Devin grabbed his shirt top huffing mad yelling "why did you punch Candi, is she ok?" Alex was shaking now in her hands and very scared, he knows Candi's and Devin's attitude are there same, he stutters " I don't know she was on her knees when I left and I told you it was an accident!" Martin grabbed his shirt top from Devin and lifted Alex off the chair, so they were face to face "you are a***hole how dare you do that to Candi, if you hurt her your dead meat buddy, she stayed up all night when she was worried about you, remember that!" Kristen ran out upset and sat in the living room, Jim followed her and sat by her " hey, what's wrong huh?" She started to cry a little "with this whole thing about the 3 girls and Alex." Jim sighed and gave her a hug "its ok!" patting her. Nick, who was not paying any attention to the argument, looking through the bag for a snack, looked up and asked, "who punched who? What happened? Where are the others? It doesn't take them this long to get home. I'm hungry!" walking over to the guys and tried to reliase Alex asking Martin "what happened that you're doing this to your buddy?" Martin turned his head to face Nick "this a**hole says he accently punched Candi!" Nick said " oh yeah how dare you do that to your girlfriend!" Nick couldn't believe it, he punched Alex out and walked out leaving Alex still in Martin's hands and knocked out, Devin grabbed Martin's, Nick's, Jim's and Kristen's hands and ran out the front door, heading to find us. Meanwhile Helen, Belldandy and I walking home, I was telling Belldandy "sometimes having a boyfriend, doesn't help with flirting sometimes!" Belldandy nodded and looking back at the 3 guys who were still knocked out "is it right to leave those boys on the sidewalk?" Helen looked back and said, " Yeah they'll be fine! How's your cheek Candi?" I looked at the 2 girls and said " it hurts, I'm going to need ice when we get home!" Helen and Belldandy shook their hands and said "poor Candi!" Just then Devin, Martin, Jim, Nick and Kristen came running up to us and was shocked when I saw them, they saw the bruise, by now it was turning purple and it was growing to half the size of my cheek, my right eye was half closed because of the bruise, the right side of my nose was red and bleeding a little bit, they saw it when they ran up. Kristen and Devin asked me " is that from Alex?" I said, dropping my head down "yes, but it was an accident, I got in the middle of the fight, all Helen and I were teaching Belldandy some flirting techniques and I guess Alex got jeasole with those guys helping us carry our bags, but did he have to hit me then leave us here?" Kristen and Devin shook their head and said, "no, he shouldn't have but part of it was your fault!" I said " I know." Nick and Martin walked up to me and gently pushed my head up to see the bruise, with Jim, Martin, Devin and Kristen looking at it. I winched a little, Martin came around us and the guys followed starting to walk home " ohh, now that is going to leave a mark, come on Candi. Let's get you home and get ice on it before it swells up anymore and makes your right eye close, oh by the way Nick punched out Alex already." I walked with them " oh ok I know it was my fault too!" we got in the house then others came and started asking questions about why Alex is humped on the floor, knocked out with a bloody nose and I have this huge bruise almost the size of my cheek and my right eye swollen and half closed. Jim took everyone into the library/ reading room and Kristen followed him in and they told everyone what happened. Martin and Nick instructed me to lie on my left side on the couch and push my hair off my face. The girls sat down on the other couch after grabbing the first aid kit for them and me. They came out of this with miner scratches and small bruises. Nick checked my mouth for broken teeth "no broken teeth, Candi, that's good, you were lucky I know Alex has a hard punch!" Martin went to the fridge and got ice for all 3 of us and gave it to us. Helen used her ice pack for her knees that got scratched because Alex pushed her out of the way before he ran off, Belldandy used hers to put it on her elbows, all stretched out on the floor laying on her stomach with the big bag of ice in front of her with her elbows laying on it. I put mine on my cheek, before I fell asleep I told everyone "thanks!" they said "no prob just try to relax all of you!" we all agreed "ok" Devin asked me "when Alex wakes up, can I punch him out for you, Candi, please?" I looked at her, sleepily, laughing and said " as long as you leave me a piece." She laughed and said " sure" then I fell asleep. Belldandy lay on the floor and Devin and Helen sat on the other couch watching TV. Nick and Martin went to the kitchen and put the food away and when Jim and Kristen came back from the library Martin made the signal "shh she's asleep." To the others they all nodded and said " ok" whispering tip toed out of the room except for Morgan, Megumi, and Sora all sat in front of the couch that I was sleeping on. The rest tiptoed to the kitchen where Nick and Martin where and was talking. Aoshima said, " We all decided that we wanted to beat him up." Jim came in and spoke " hi, Aoshima, Mishima, Keiichi I know you guys want to beat him up, here take a number." Laughing a little. Jim said then " but I'm not getting involved! I don't need the girls after me." The girls- Kristen and Mishima all walked out and sat on the floor watching TV. Helen asked whispering, "What was all that noise in the kitchen?" Kristen whispered back "the guys are taking numbers that Jim made up but he said he isn't involved he doesn't want us after him, to beat up Alex, I guess." Helen said rolling her eyes " oh boy are they going to be in trouble with Candi and us." Mishima whispered, " Why do you think we came out here." Helen and Belldandy giggled a little, thenBelldandy spoke " that's a good idea girls, its safer out here." They nodded their heads and giggled a little. Martin grabbed Alex and tied him to our big oak tree that Jim got stuck in earlier in the backyard. Jim realized it was dinnertime so he made this big batch of chop suey, by the time it was ready all the girls fell asleep in the living room. Belldandy was leaning against Devin, Devin who was leaning on Helen. On the floor Morgan was on her side, Kristen leaning on Morgan, Megumi against Kristen, Mishima leaning against Kristen and Sora against Mishima. Nick and Martin came out and saw us asleep and "awed" whispering and laughing quietly and put blankets on the girls and me. Nick saw me moving around yelling something in my sleep "no don't kill Alex, no" also crying. I get up and punch Morgan and Mishima in the nose, punching Nick in the arm hard, and flipped Martin over the couch; Nick dodges the punch looking at Martin strangely then me. I trip over Sora's legs and fall backwards on the couch and fell silent. Martin came up from behind the couch, shaking a little, whispering to Nick " what the hell? Oh boy, I wonder if Alex had seen this side of her? Man she flipped me hard. How are you Nick? She's quiet again at least." Martin got up and walked near Nick by that time the girls woke up because of my screaming. Morgan and Mishima find their noses bleeding whispering to the guys " what the hell, happened to our noses?" Nick motioned for them to follow them and they went in the kitchen, the guys fixed their noses and told them what happened. They couldn't believe it. Jim yelled " FOOD'S ON!!!" Everyone ran for the kitchen, Martin and Nick came out and said " girls go ahead and eat, we'll wake her up." They agreed and ran to the kitchen. Nick and Martin were arguing over who was going to wake me, they finally decided to do rock, paper, scissors and Martin won- he went behind the couch while Nick went into the kitchen, Helen looked up to see Nick "what happened where is Candi? She hasn't eaten too much for 2 days! " He smiled and sighed " we took a vote and Martin got to wake Candi up, I know she hasn't eaten too much, she'll come go on and eat." Sitting down next to Helen. She smiled and said " ok" eating. Mean while Martin was shaking me awake " Candi, its time to wake up. Foods on." I woke up and yawned and said "oh really cool, what time is it? How long did I sleep?" Martin laughed came around the sofa and looked at my bruise " it looks better, the swelling went down a little. Let's grab some chop suey before the others eat it all up! It's about 7pm! 3 hours! And did you have a bad dream or something? Because you got up, yelling no don't kill Alex no, punching Morgan and Megumi in the nose, luckily Nick ducked and you tried to punch his arm, but then you flipped me over the couch, fell over Sora's feet and fell silent. Then I woke you up, let's get the food in the kitchen before it gets cold or the others get it." I walked behind him " I don't remember, hmm!" we ate and when we were done, Jim got up and said "I'll do the dishes so everyone go in the living room." We all said "ok" and grabbed our pops, everyone asked me how I feel and I said " fine." I sat down next to Belldandy. We watched TV until 11:30pm everyone else headed for bed except Helen, Jim, Nick, Devin and Kristen, but before the others went upstairs. I looked around and asked "Everyone where is Alex, I wanted to talk to him?" the guys looked at each other then laughed. I stood up looking at them funny. The girls stood up and watched me get mad then they did too. We all crossed our arms and gave them dirty looks. I spoke up '' well why are you laughing?" Nick and Martin stopped, looking scared, Nick spoke " Well, we thought he would be better off tied to the big oak tree in the back, since he was in the doghouse with you!" I ran to him and grabbed him by his shirt top and lifted him off the ground, giving him my pissed off look, plus Devin was right behind me " who's idea was that? It was part my fault too!" nearly strangled Devin pissed, then he spoke up " it was Martins." I dropped Nick and headed for the patio door. Martin got in front of me and blocked me " but remember, he punched you!" pointing to my bruise on my cheek, I rolled my eyes, pushing him out of the way and opening, running outside yelling back " yea by accident, I started the flirting remember?" I stupidly forgot a flashlight, but I stumbled through the backyard, tripping over the laundry basket, almost strangling myself on the clothes line, landing on my back then crawling the rest of the way on my knees, yelling "Alex, where are you? Oww" I put my hand on something sharp and it hurt, crawled to the big tree in the back, start untying Alex and dragging him and tripping and falling over things, getting back in the house, put him on a chair and the girls and I look at his face, arms and screamed I yelled "Guys, what did you do to him? His beautiful face!" the rest of the girls were yelling at them. Nick and Martin laughed and said "we took care of him for you since he hit you!" the girls and I gave them all dirty looks; they stopped laughing and just looked scared. Helen and Devin slapped their boyfriends and all the girls headed upstairs. I grabbed Nick and Martin's face and stared in their eyes. "You better watch it from now on! Now I want him fixed up, got it?" Jim spoke up shaking "I wasn't involved in this at all Helen and girls." I nodded and said, "Ok Jim thanks!" Helen said, "Sorry for the slap I love ya good night." She gave him a kiss and a hug. He said, " I forgive you and goodnight hon and girls!" and watched her walk upstairs. I kissed the uncouncess Alex, giving the guys except for Jim a dirty look, then ran up the stairs, tears in my eyes and went to my room. Getting ready for bed, saw Jim go by, waved to him and said "goodnight" he said " goodnight back" I slammed my door, getting in bed and wrote in my diary and cried myself to sleep. Meanwhile Jim went to bed, downstairs in the living room, Martin and Nick turned to each other and Nick stuttering "guys, I think we really upset them, did you see Cand's face? I think we ought to make this up to her but how?" keiichi walked up to where Alex was sitting and about to fall off, grabbing him and putting him on the couch, then looked up and said " I have wrongly been accused I did nothing, its up to you guys I'm going to bed goodnight." Nick went off to the couch and was hitting Alex in the face to wake up, it didn't work he was out cold, Martin ran to the kitchen, put some ice in a towel and put it on Alex's face. He stopped Nick " Nick, its not working I know let's carry him upstairs and put him on a extra bed in Candi's room that will be a nice surprise for her in the morning. She should be asleep by now, I'll go and look." Keichi and Martin walked up the stairs and Keiichi went to bed. Martin knocked on my door, but I didn't hear it because I was asleep. He opened it and saw my back to the door, he walked to the other side of my bed turning on the light, saw me sleeping hugging the stuffed bear that Alex won for me at the fair, the picture from of him and my diary by my feet. Martin shook her head and whispered "poor girl, cried herself to sleep." Grabbing the pictures frame out of my arms so I don't hurt myself and put it back on my shelf. He turned out my light and walked out, closing the door behind him softly. He walked down the stairs and told the others what he saw " you guys, wouldn't believe it, she cried herself to sleep, holding the teddy bear that Alex won for her at the fair and squeezing the picture frame, poor girl." Shaking his head. Nick spoke up "see we did really upset her! She never cries herself to sleep." Martin spoke up "I took the picture frame and put it back on her shelf and it looked like she wrote in her diary before she fell asleep!" Aoshima shook his head " I can't believe what you guys did to poor Candi, I think you broke her heart." Everyone grabbed Alex and climbed the stairs. They got to my room Nick, Martin and Tamiya grabbed the extra bed and opened my door, Ootaki helped the set up the bed and Tamiya turned on the light so the guys would be able to see. The guys came in and put Alex down and put a blanket over him. All the guys looked at me sleeping and whispered " aww she sleeps like a baby." They all awed and Ootaki fixed my blanket and turned out the light and everyone whispered "goodnight" and walked out of my room, closing the door. They all said "goodnight" to each other and went to their rooms and went to bed. The screen goes black then the camera shows the faces of everyone sleeping and goes black again someone's handwriting appears and in cursive writes "THE END" the credits roll and shows that I wrote it, everyone's name, and goes black screen. My voice comes on and the screen says " In the next eposide. The screen shows the people- Alex and everyone else and I. "will Alex wake up? Will he forgive me? Will we all get in a fight over it?
