After breakfast Stormy went to Kimberly's room. That's when she saw the suitcase on the bed. "What's going on?" She asked casually.
"I'm getting' out off here" her friend said proudly.
"Really? Wow, that… that's great."
Kimberly turned upon hearing Stormy's tone. "Hey" she grabbed Stormy's shoulders. "I'll come visit ya all and after only six weeks you'll be out to… we could go shopping and stuff"
Stormy smiled sadly at her. "Yeah… It's just gonna be so dull without you here"
"Don't worry I asked twins to look after you" Kimberly smiled.
Stormy fell on her knees and flung herself at Kimberly's legs "How could you do this to me" she mockingly pleaded.
"Everything all right here?" The doc stood watching them from the door.
"Just fooling around, Doc" Kimberly said when Stormy quickly stood. Kimberly closed her suitcase and was ready to go.
"Your cab should be here any minute. Now you have that address I gave you" Doc asked.
"Yup" Kimberly waved a small paper around and started to move towards the exit.
"Hey Kimberly! We'll miss you!" Caitlin yelled from the far end off the corridor, she came running to and jumped Stormy's back.
"What the hell are you doing? Get off!" Caitlin just laughed but didn't let go. The doc and Kimberly just ignored them. "Now" the doc refocused his attention to Kimberly "You be sure to STAY out this time, ok?" He grabbed her shoulders.
"Sure" She smiled and took off.
Stormy was so bored and just strode in the corridors. She wasn't paying attention to her surroundings and bumped into our favourite twins. They quickly moved towards her and stood each on either side.
"Stormy…" Jude started, while he and his brother wrapped an arm around Stormy's shoulder.
"You know, we normally annoy Kimberly at this time of day…" He continued
"…But now that she is gone…" His brother followed him
"…We don't know what to do?" Jude finished
"For starters you can leave me alone…" Stormy said uninterested "You could also annoy Caitlin."
"But that would be against Kim's wishes" Timmy said "we were…"
"…to look after you while she was gone"
"So I have feared" Stormy shuddered.
"You miss her right" Jude said sadly while he pressed his head to Stormy's "I've got an idea!" he suddenly yelled cheerfully "We will cheer you up! We'll strip for you"
Stormy stood shocked "Oh… oh no, don't!" She stammered nervously "KEEP YOUR PANTS ON!" she tried not to panic but then remembered something called reversed Psychology. "Or you know what maybe we'll go somewhere more private"
"Really?" Timmy said confused. "You want us to strip for you?"
"Yeah!"
Timmy leaned into his identical brother and whispered "What now?"
Jude said to Stormy "can we have a moment?"
The two brothers discussed the idea and decided against it. "Sorry maybe that's not a good idea" and they started to move of, feeling uneasy. Stormy followed them for a while "but you promised! Please guys!"
They hastened their pace and Stormy watched them go. She couldn't believe it actually worked. Idiots.
It has been three days since Kimberly left the place. Stormy couldn't sleep that night, she mostly fought her tiredness… lately when she fell asleep, all she dreamt about was Flora… She blamed her painkillers though, there was no way she could be really attracted to the faerie.
She heard some muffled voices and stammering in the corridor and she carefully opened her door to see what it was. She saw three or four figures at Kimberly's room, one of the she recognised as the doc. The others moved in to quickly and it was to dark to make anything out. She carefully made her way towards the doc "What's going on"
"Stormy" he answered agitated "You should be in bed"
"But…"
"C'mon" he took her arm and led her to her room
"Is it Kimberly?" Stormy tried to ask but the doc didn't respond, he had a grim expression on his face.
"Doc?" Stormy tried again while they arrived at her room.
He sighed "Yes she's back… now go to sleep"
"W… why is she back? What happened?"
"Stormy I'm losing my patience, go to bed… and I don't want you to go to her, not until further notice, do I make myself clear."
She nodded with widened eyes. And moved into her room. What could have happened, she wondered.
