The Plan: Part Two
Makenzee turned the page. Oh…my…word! Can this book get any worse?" She read more, then decided, Apparently it can! And she shut the book. Tara ran in.
"Makenzee! What are you wearing?"
Mak looked at her pajamas. "I'm lazy. What's your excuse?"
"Very funny. Mak, don't you remember?" She waited for a reaction. None. "The really important meal I told you about?"
Makenzee stared at her with a blank expression on her face.
"You forgot!" Tara screamed.
Makenzee slowly said, "Noooo, in order for me to forget something, I have to be told something."
"Your just full of jokes today. And yes, I did tell you, but your memory problem isn't the issue now, we need to get you dressed." Tara grabbed Makenzee's hand and pulled her up. "We have only a few hours to do your hair and get you dressed so hurry up!"
Makenzee stumbled after her.
Lucy and Sue peeked from out of the kitchen when Tara successfully got Makenzee upstairs.
"Okay," Sue said. "We now have the house to ourselves. The men are golfing, Makenzee's getting ready, and we are ready to make food!"
"Right." Lucy said. "So…where do we start?" They looked at the kitchen, there was food everywhere – well not really food, bits and pieces of food was more like it.
Sue sighed, "I have no idea." She walked to the counter and peered into one of the bowls. "What is this for, anyways?"
"I have no idea. Tara was so hung up on playing matchmaker she didn't even realize she was mixing stuff together."
"I have an idea," Sue said. "How about we call a catering company and let them take care of everything."
Lucy exclaimed, "Perfect!" She headed for the phone.
1st Saturday, 4:30 pm
Bobby swung his golf club, and the ball soared in the air after the two connected together. "Yep," hesquinted against the bright sun, watching the ball landonly inchesaway from the hole, "and that, mates, is how it's done."
Jack, Myles and D all winced. Jack said, "I didn't know we were in the presence of a pro."
"Most don't."
"That's hardly a pro," Myles disagreed.
"Don't worry about it, Myles," D said, "someday we'll all be just as good as him."
"Well, when you do," Bobby smirked, "you let me know."
Myles grunted. "Right. I'll be honored," he said sarcastically. He stepped up and prepared for the swing.
He wound up and just before the ball and club made contact Bobby 'coughed', "I love Lucy!"
The tactic worked, Myles' golf ball went far off course into a man made forest. Bobby laughed, Jack and D smirked.
"Oh, well that was real mature, Bobby," Myles said.
"When have you known me to be mature?"
"That is probably the smartest thing I've ever heard you say!" Myles said.
"Yeah, buddy," Jack said, "you sort of walked into that one."
"Meh, life goes on." Bobby shrugged.
On the long walk back to the entrance hall and the friends had run out of stuff to talk about, Bobby decided to go out on a limb. "So what do you mates think of Makenzee?"
Jack was the first to answer. "I think she's good for you."
"I agree," D said, "although I'm not sure what Garrett would think of it."
"Not sure? You think he doesn't know?" Myles said, taking the focus. After seeing the looks on the mens faces he faces he sighed and continued. "Who doesn't know? Of course Ted Garrett is pretending not to know. And no, not because he likes Ms. Fields, but because he knows that if you two ever broke up it would effect the way you work."
"Hmm." Bobby thought about it. "Works for me! And what's up with you and Sue, Jack?"
"Huh? Nothing, what are you talking about?" Jack denied.
"Jack," D said, "we all know that there's something going on between you and Ms. Thomas. All we want to know is how is it?"
"Uh," Jack thought about it.
"Come on, mate," Bobby pestered, a smirk on his lips. "Spill."
Myles sighed exasperatedly, "You sound like a teenage schoolgirl."
Bobby ignored him and looked at Jack expectantly, "So…"
"Let's just say, I've never been happier in my whole entire life, and the kisses…wow." He dished out.
"Aha! Knew it!" Bobby punched the air.
A/N: Keep reviewing! thanks to those who are, right now you're the only motivation i'm getting for me to continue!
