Meanwhile, upstairs Adeline opened the door to her room and entered her room was just as she left it; her bed with the purple monkey comforter wasn't made, there were clothes on her floor, her drawings were scattered all over her art desk, the homework that was about 2 days late was still in her books on the floor, the closet was open along with the 2 drawers in her dresser and her posters of her favorite actors and role models were on her walls and anywhere else she could fit them. She never was the cleaning type; she just seemed not to care, the only time she ever cleaned is when her social worker came to check up on her or she expected company.
Instead of getting straight to packing, she walked straight to her fuzzy purple phone and dialed her boyfriend's number; she waited as it rung
"He…Hello" he said groggily
"Hey baby" she said a little guiltily
When he answered he sounded wide awake, "Adeline, are you alright? I got worried when you disappeared today…"
"Yeah….some things happened and it lead to some problems…"
"Oh no…did you lose control again?"
She paused before she said, "yeah…but some very kind people helped me…"
"Well that's good…" he sighed out of relief, "Who was it?"
She was quite anxious to get to this question, "Well…it's actually kinda funny, but it's kinda not….."
"What is it?"
"Um…well…I have good news, surprising news and bad news..." she paused, "the good news is I finally found my birth father…"
"Wow! That's great! What's the surprising news?"
"He's a monkey" she blurted out
"Huh?"
"Yeah…it turns out that my birth father is a real live monkey infused with robotics and they live on another planet with the rest of my family…and that's the bad news…"
He didn't say anything; he knew what she was going to say next
"……I'm going to go live with them…"
He sighed, "So…I guess I'll never see you again..." he was really sad…he loved her with all his heart
"No! That's not it at all! I'll explain later…but for now…can you come over quick?"
"Of course, I'll see you in a minute..."
"Great but you have to sneak in the back…in my window"
"Like I did for our anniversary?" he asked smiling
She blushed a little remembering that night, "yeah…" she laughed a little
"Ok…I'll be over as soon as I can."
"Ok…bye"
"Bye"
She hung up the phone and stood there for a second; she reached into her pocket and took out the transporter and universal phone and placed it on the dresser. She spent 5 minutes packing only clothes when she heard a noise outside her window as her boyfriend climbed in. He was wearing his flame pajama pants and a white muscle shirt; he accidentally made a thumping noise as he landed on the floor. She didn't think anything of it until someone called up the stairs
"What was that!" she heard Sprx call up the stairs
"Nothing! I just dropped a book! I'm fine!" she yelled waiting for an answer
"Alright!" he yelled back; she sighed out in relief
She looked at her boyfriend smiling and she ran up to him; he hugged her and she hugged him back as they gave each other a French kiss. "I've missed you so much…" she said
"I missed you too…" he said as he gave her a hug; they shared each others embrace for a few more seconds until they let up a little, "Now what did you want to tell me?" She looked up then walked over to her dresser picking up the gadgets and giving them to him. "What are these?"
"These are ways we get to see each other even though I'll be somewhere else" she said but saw the look on his face and giggled, "this is a transporter…I can use the remote that's in my room on the robot to transport you straight to me...and this is a phone type thing that allows us to just talk…like on a web cam kinda"
"Wow…where'd you get them?" he said a bunch happier that he would be able to continue his relationship with his girlfriend
"Oh…well…I um kinda took them from my uncle's lab…" she said guiltily
"You stole from your family!" he said amazed
"Yes…I had to…otherwise I couldn't….I couldn't ever see you again.." she looked to the floor sadly
He took her chin and raised it, "You did it for me…I guess I can't be mad at you for it…" they looked into each others eyes; they kissed and she took her hands and started to take his muscle shirt off but he stopped her, "No…not here…not now…your families downstairs"
She really wanted to so she tried to sweet talk him into it, "Their downstairs…they shouldn't bother us…besides I don't know the next time I'll be able to hold you again." She did her little sexy thing that usually got him in the mood.
He let out an couple exhorted laugh and shuddered, "he…he…he….da…don't"
"But why? she said seductively manipulating him toward the bed
"But…but your families downstairs…" he said looking toward the door
"You mean you'd rather not see me for maybe a week….spending lonely nights all by yourself, then spend even 5 special minutes with me?" she said with one eyebrow raised and sitting on his lap. They started to make out on the bed and he was really into it, but Adeline heard someone coming up the stairs, "Crap! Hurry in the closet!" She got up and shoved him inside shutting the door and acting like she was packing. Nova walked in
"Hey…How ya doin?" she asked
"F…Fine" she said nervously "I'm just finishing my clothes and then I need to pack some of my other things…" she gave her a smile
Nova looked around her room and thought it better to leave her alone, "alright…just asking…Antauri and Gibson are getting a little annoyed, but that's them…so take your time" giving a smile she left. Adeline crept over and shut the door as he came out of the closet.
"See I told you…" he said giving her a look and putting his shirt back on
"Fine…I guess you should go…"
"Ok…I'll talk to you later?"
She smiled and pulled him into a hug, "Of course…..I'll call you as soon as we get to the planet…and then once I find a good club or something I'll bring you down to go on a date in my new town." She gave a giant smile; he let go and climbed out the window, but before he left he pulled her into a heated kiss.
"I'll see you later…" he smiled and climbed down the pipe; she watched him head back to his house. She sighed but decided to get back to packing; she packed all of her art supplies, posters and basically anything else inside her room that she thought she'd use. After she finished packing she looked around her almost empty room and headed downstairs with her bag.
"Done!" she exclaimed. She saw her father and Gibson had moved to the couch to talk and the others were busy watching cartoons.
"Alright….let's get back to the robot and head home" Chiro said
They left leaving her house; she knew her boyfriend would alert her social worker of her news but not where she went. He was the best thing that ever happened to her and was glad he was such a loving boyfriend. She wondered this all and even what they could have done if Nova hadn't interrupted them; they reached the robot and her family finished bypassing the wires and cords necessary to power the robot while she decorated her room.
She put up her posters and set up her usual decorations and by the time she finished it, it was a totally different room. Instead of plain white walls and blue shades there were a variety of colors but mostly purple; a purple comforter, shawls, rug, and even purple hanging beads. About the only thing that she didn't keep out was her art; she didn't really like it….she only drew to express herself even though she thought she sucked at it. She hid them in the overhead above her bed; she found a loft that she could use to sit in, draw and hide her pictures so her family didn't have to see them.
She had just finished her room when she heard a knock on her door
"Come in" she said sitting on her bed. The monkey team walked in and they were amazed by the transformation.
"Dude! This is awesome!" Chiro exclaimed
Gibson seemed to want to get in on the conversation, "Yes I quite agree…you completely added your own personal touch…"
"Thanks…" she replied simply "So wassup?"
"Were about to take off and we thought we'd see how you were doing so far…and by the looks of it…pretty good." Sprx said
"Yeah…..just got done" she smiled
"Great…well were going to go take off and then you can travel around Shugazoom…" Chiro said as a suggestion
"Bet it's gonna be awesome" she said with a slight tone of excitement
"You bet it will!" Nova said giving her a thumbs up
Adeline laughed, "Cool"
The monkey team left and Adeline stayed sitting on her bed; she looked around and found that she was very comfortable there with her family. She felt the Robot take off and just laid back reading a book that she had been wanting to finish for weeks……
