Don't own any of these guys, so don't bite my head off.
Before I begin, I would like to address a few reviews that I have received. First of all, thank you to all of those who have provided constructive criticism. It is always helpful and I always consider it when writing. Thank you. Now for those of you who simply tell me to finish the story, I do not care for those who simply give me orders. I never start writing a story without an intention of finishing it, so I don't need a lecture on writing thank you very much. Sometimes I lose interest in a story; when that occurs I will remove the story from the site and when I regain interest I finish it. I do not appreciate people giving me orders on finishing stories when they only have a single story posted. You know who you are. Those of you who have a plethora of stories posted, I give you my respects. I know how hard that is and I am willing to let you give me crap for waiting a week to post the next chapter, because I have respect for you.
But don't think that because you have read a story and want me to finish mine that you can give me orders. It doesn't work that way. It merely discourages me. If you want me to continue writing, I suggest constructive criticism. That gives me something to think about so that I don't lose interest in the work.
Ok, now that I have vented, on with the show. I hope you enjoy this chapter as much as the last two. It isn't that long, but I try not to write long chapters unless if the mood strikes me.
I am in Love
Chapter 3
So… help. Who would be willing to help me bring this two timer to light, and who would be willing to help me do this with out causing any problems in the team. Nigel basically only has friends and enemies, nothing in between. This is gonna be difficult. Well, I can't trust anyone here at Sector V… so they're all out. I can't trust any adult, any one of them could be an enemy in disguise. I suppose that I could talk global command into helping, and I'm sure that Numbah 86 would be interested in helping two girls who are being taken advantage of.
With those satellites that I can use on my own now, Numbah 1 will never be able to hear or read any of the communications between us. So I have that going for me. I can totally beat him up, so that is always an option. I don't think it is the smart option, but it's still an option. Hey, I just had a burilliant idea. Maybe I could figure out a day that Lizzie is going on a date with Nigel, and then fake a mission and take Numbuh 3 with me to the restaurant that they are eating at. That's genius. Sector V can help even if they don't want too. I'll definitely need Numbuh 86 to help with this one. She'll be the one who gives me the mission. Sorry Nigel, but this is how it is gonna go down.
So, after getting Numbuh 86 working with me, it was only a matter of time before I figure out when Nigel's next date is with Lizzie. This is gonna hurt Kuki, so I had better come up with some sort of explanation for her. Part of me is looking forward to the look that Nigel is going to have on his face when I bust in on him. I wonder if he'll try to burst into tears. Maybe he'll get angry and try to fight me. I would just love for an excuse to beat his face in and watch him squirm on the ground groveling for me to spare those pretty-boy good looks of his. I hope I get a chance to watch him try and explain what he is doing to Kuki and Lizzie. That'll be great.
After a couple of hours of imagining the things that Nigel is going to do, I got to work on hunting down Lizzie's date book. It wasn't that hard to find. It's not like she was a super spy like Nigel. If I had to locate his date book, I would probably have to swim through a pool of piranhas or something. All I had to do with Lizzie was sneak into her room and look on her nightstand. I opened it up and saw that Lizzie was actually a very busy girl. She wrote down everything that she ever does. She even managed to have entries allowing her time to do things like "get dressed". No wonder she hasn't noticed Nigel's extra activities. That is outrageous. I mean, does she really have to be that organized. She doesn't leave any room for spontenaity. Where is the fun in life without it. But I diegress. There is no point in discussing the kind of person Lizzie is. We all know that she stinks.
So I made some notes about times that she says she is going to spend with that fraud Nigel. The best time for the mission looks like it is going to be Friday. She says that she and Nigel are going to have dinner at 8. That's when we'll do it. All I will have to do is tell Fanny and she'll take care of the rest. That two timer will pay for stringing Kuki along.
It's actually funny how things change. Just a few months ago I would have considered Nigel my best friend, now he is my nemesis. My mortal enemy. With that thought running through my mind for several days I waited patiently for the time to come. Friday finally came around and I contacted Numbuh 86 to let her know that everything was ready. She let me know that there was no adult activity predicted so there would hopefully be no need to interrupt my little operation with a mission. I was very nervous as to how everyone else would actually react to this sort of thing. It would be one thing to just get rid of him, but what the others would think is the big problem. "Put that out of your mind 4, come on. What he is doing is wrong… period. If I don't do something then I not only dishonor myself but the entire Kids Next Door organization. You… can… do… this."
After the brief pep talk I was ready and I set the ball in motion. I grabbed the photo utility to attach to my splanker and I headed out to the common area.
Numbuh 5 stared at with a funny look on her face and asked me, "Hey Numbuh 4, why you carryin around that weapon? It's not like we under attack or anything."
I simply told her, "Well, I know that One is going out tonight and I wanted to be prepared for anything."
That seemed to put her suspiscions to rest. Whew… that could have gone a bad way. I saw One sneak out without telling anyone goodbye; I knew that he wouldn't want to risk Kuki finding out that he was on a date. I wonder if she even bothered to ask Nigel if he had broken up with Lizzie. Sometimes her naivety is less cute and more of a nuisance. Oh well, that's what I love about her.
It was currently 8 o'clock. Numbuh 86 would send a mission speck to us in bout 15 minutes. We will arrive at the restaurant at about 8:30, exactly in the middle of their meal. There is no escaping Nigel. I'm sorry old friend… but you earned this one.
