There was silence in the room, everyone kept a straight face but secretly each of them was smiling inside. "Ok that's settled. Any more questions" Cindy asked? 'Man that was smart of Jimmy, putting them in pairs he knew they would abject to. That's MY jimmy.'
"How much stuff can we take?" Libby asked.
"You can each take one carry on. Which, if you're smart will include EVERYTHING you are taking, right? Libby I need to ask you a favor."
"What's that?" Libby asked.
"I NEED you to leave your cell phone behind." Libby's face looked like she had never heard of such a thing. "That is if you don't want the parents to call and check on us constantly."
"I guess I could do that."
"Good, I knew you could. However we do need phones so therefore each group gets a robotic animal. Sheen and Libby, I am giving you Goddard, PLEASE take good care of him. Brittany and Carl, I will have to make you guys one. Do you have a name of preference?"
"Carlita, would be nice, Jim."
"No WAY! Carl I love ya-yahoo better."
"You want your dog to be named Yahoo?" Jimmy asked raising an eyebrow.
"NO! But it is better than Carlita, no offence to Carl of course." She added sarcastically. 'Girl, listen to your self! You can not let Carl know you like him.'
"Ok, I'll make up the name." Jimmy said. 'However we are getting somewhere.' Everyone here is the plan. Once you have a full suitcase packed bring it to my house. We will not be checking any bags."
"Jimmy, I know you are smarter then me but, honey I really don't think we can fit all of our stuff in one carry on no bigger then a backpack."
"But what if we could fit our entire luggage in our pockets?"
"Then we could take whatever we wanted!" Libby shouted excitedly.
"But how are we supposed to do that?" Brittany asked.
"Well, I am the inventor of the shrink ray."
"Are you sure it will work?"
"Yea, cause I am not going to use my shrink ray."
"Then how are we supposed to shrink our luggage?" Libby asked.
"Well, Cimmy and Goddard have a microscopic Shrinker that I recently installed into the both of them. It differs from the Portable Shrink Ray in that it is voice activated. Plus it will work because my inventions themselves never work but when they involve something else they work perfectly. So anytime you all have a bag packed bring it to my house, so that I can shrink it."
All of the kids agreed that bringing the luggage to Jimmy's house was the best way to accomplish the task.
"Wow, it's getting pretty late. We better get to sleep." Cindy said when she caught a glimpse of the living room clock. It said the time was 3:30. Her parents had gone to bed about an hour and a half ago.
Everyone agreed and the boys went to the left of the sofa where their sleeping bags and stuff were; while the girls got settled in right where they were on the right side of the sofa.
Cindy turned off the lights. "Night everyone" Then in a quieter voice she said "Night Jimmy." She stepped over Libby's sleeping bag and went over to the guys' half and gave Jimmy a light kiss good night and when she got up to go back he kissed her good night as well.
"I love you." Jimmy said as Cindy walked back to the other side of the room, stepping on Libby in the process. After Cindy laid back down everyone was silent for about one minute. Cindy went straight to sleep after saying a quick prayer.
"Night Sheen," Libby said.
"Night Libby," Sheen responded.
"Night Carl," Brittany chimed in.
"G'night Brittany," Carl answered.
Once again all were quiet for about five minutes (Which is weird considering their teenagers and it's three in the morning, I mean one minute their all talking the n\ext minute their as quiet as a church-mouse.) Then Libby rolled over onto Sheen's Ultralord action figure.
"Ouch! Sheen," Libby realized she was yelling and says in a nicer tone. "Sheen, I just rolled onto your Ultralord d- action figure." She walks over to Sheen and steps on Jimmy in the process. "Sorry Jimmy," Libby whispered. Libby handed Sheen his action figure and kissed him on the cheek good night. She was careful to not step on Jimmy on her way back. Once she was settled in it was Brittany's turn to roll over.
"Carl, have you seen Carlita lately?" Brittany asked.
"Now that you mention it I haven't. Why do you ask?"
"Cause I just smashed it." Brittany steps over Cindy but trips and falls over Libby. She got back up and stepped over Jimmy but landed on Sheen's hand. She apologized to sheen and handed Carl his stuffed llama. She bent over and kissed Carl on the cheek. On the way back she stepped on Cindy's Leg. Then finally they all went to sleep. Only to dream about each other.
The next morning was Sunday and even though they had stayed up late Cindy was up at 7:00. Cindy walked over to Jimmy and kissed him softly on the lips. Jimmy wakes up and gives her a kiss as well. "Morning sleepy-head," Cindy teased."
"What time is it?"
"7:00," Cindy answered. Then she raised her voice higher, "Everyone, get up." No one moved a muscle.
"What did you dream about, princess?"
"You; what did you dream about?"
"You," Jimmy answered.
Then Cindy practically yelled, "I SAID WAKE UP!!" At that everyone woke up, including Cindy's Mom and Dad.
"Is everything ok down there, Sweetie?" Cindy's mom yelled from their bedroom.
"Yes, Mom, everything is all right."
Brittany sat up and yawned. Man, I am starvin', so unless you can hook me up with car-s full of McDonald's carry out; I am going to raid your kitchen.
"Sure, Brittany, I can hook you up with Carl!" Cindy said realizing what Brittany had accidentally said.
"I did NOT say that, I said I needed CARS full of carry-out food." Brittany practically screamed.
"Whatever, we already know that Libby and Sheen like each other, and same for Carl and You." Cindy said at the mention of their names Carl and Sheen were zapped wide-awake.
"Hey, how would you know that? I only told Carlita." Carl quickly put his hands to his mouth realizing what he had just let slip.
"Yea and I only told my episode 777 Ultralord action figure with…"
"The one with laser eyes and moon-bounce shoes that really work; I just got that one!" Libby exclaimed quickly before she realized what she had just said. "Opps," was all she could say while she giggled nervously.
"You watch Ultralord?" Sheen asked amazed.
Libby was still nervously giggling, "I've seen it once or twice." Everyone looked at her as if to say 'yea right'. "You just made it look so interesting; I had to at least try it. But it was not fair the first episode I saw guest starred my favorite actor, Kevin Salones."
"You didn't even tell ME?" Cindy asked in disbelief.
"I wrote about it in my diary."
"With what, invisible ink," Cindy asked sarcastically?
Libby giggled nervously again. "Me… write… invisible… no way!"
"Did you se that new episode last Friday?" Sheen asked still amazed that Libby actually watched Ultralord.
"Yea, the one where Wonderlady turns her back on Ultralord because the mad scientist created a potion that put her under his spell."
"Yea, that was awesome! I liked the way they ended the episode."
"Yea, the way that Dr. Egor's potion turned on him, like Jimmy's inventions usually do him, and Ultralord married Wonderlady." Libby suddenly started speaking really low so that only sheen could hear. Sometimes I pretend that I'm Wonderlady and you're Ultralord."
