I'm planning my birthday party now! It's on November 13th. I'm SO EXCITED! Anyways, you guys never answered the question about me rushing things. I really REALLY need to know.
Throughout the nights before summer ended, Bob was scared to death. For god's sake, he was gonna meet the girl he really liked. Once she actually said yes in an instant message form, he was too excited. But in the end, it wasn't safe at all. Stealing his dad's mask was going to be incredibly hard (Ha! Incredibly. Incredible. Don't you get it?) But who knew if he was going to get it at all? He could just ask for it. Nah. He could dare Helen to get it. Wait, HELL NO. She shouldn't know he was a super. Maybe he could steal it. Yeah, that made sense. Steal it. He was going to do that.
----------
It was just the time Helen was waiting for. And it had nothing to do with what was really going to make the day good.
"Okay, Helen. It's time for Stacie's funny dialogs."
"Yay!"
"Okay. If one person has eggs and one person has cheese, who wins?"
Helen laughed at this statement. "Um, the cheese person?"
"Hell no. You're the one who has eggs, and you wanna win, so you win."
"Shut up."
"I know. That was one of my least funny ones."
"Stacie?"
"What is it?"
"When does the mail come?"
"It already came." Stacie just looked at Helen whose eyes were very wide. "OH! OH! OH MY GOD!"
They ran to the mailbox. Who invented heels anyways? They opened the mailbox, thinking about what would happen. Digging, digging, digging through the mail...
"OH GOD!" Stacie picked up a letter with her name on it.
"OH DOUBLE GOD!" Helen picked up a little with her name on it.
They ripped the envelopes, got out the letter they had received from Princeton, and panicked as they opened the letter. On the letters, underneath the greeting read this:
We are very excited to tell you that you've been selected to go to Princeton.
"OH TRIPLE GOD!"
----------
"Helen? Where are you going?"
"Uh, I, um, have a date."
"Oh really?"
"This is really not a good time, David."
"We have time."
"I told you that I have a date. I really do!"
"Okay, I'm gonna trust you. Stay safe."
"Why wouldn't I?"
Helen ran out of the family room, grabbing her purse. In this were the normal essentials for a date. Lip gloss, tissues in case she started sneezing, that stuff. But of course there was one thing that had nothing to do with a normal date. She took it out of her purse, and put her mother's mask on her face.
She started running really fast. She stopped. She was at the location. It was a small park that nobody went to anymore. Now, where was her date?
Oh god, what if he forgot? Nah, he wouldn't do that. What if he can't get a mask? What if he has some reunion or something? Or worse, maybe he tricked me.
Helen started to walk towards home.
"Hello, Elastigirl."
She turned around and screamed. When she saw it was her date, she took a deep breath and said "Hi."
"Uh, sorry for, uh-"
"Oh, no, it's okay. I guess I was just expecting you to be in front of me."
Helen examined her date. God, he was hott. Huge, yes, but hott. He had blonde hair and blue eyes. Kind of reminded her of someone, but she couldn't put her finger on it. Well, who cared about that?
"So, uh, hi."
"Hi."
There really wasn't much to say. Was there anything to say? They were finally together. That was all that mattered.
----------
It was really late at night when Helen had returned. She was sneaking to her bed, when all of the sudden, the lights turned on.
"Oh, crap."
Fortunately, Helen had put the mask back in her purse.
"Hello, Helen. Did you have a nice time on your date?"
"Yes, I did. It was very good."
"Do you realize what time it is?"
"Actually, I didn't know that time mattered tonight."
"Is that so?" Her mother started walking towards her secret compartment. "Did you know that my super mask was missing tonight?"
Helen gulped. "Well, I have a very good excuse."
"You have a good excuse for blowing our cover?"
"I took the mask in order to protect my cover!"
"And how would you protect our cover by taking my mask?"
"Mom, there's this guy who's a super-"
"randomguy."
"How did you know?"
"Stacie told me."
"Well, he lives here. And he asked me on a date. He said we could take our parents' masks. I really wanted to make it happen, so I said yes. And then I kept thinking of how I could get your mask. You would've never let me."
"Yes I would've."
"Oh, c'mon. You're kidding."
"No I'm not. Actually, believe it or not, this is how your father and I met. Only without the masks. Now, shouldn't you be in bed?"
That was actually kind of funny. Her mom was trying to comfort her and then she said something about going to bed.
Moms are way too overprotective. Don't you agree? I hate that. But anyways, I loved the reviews, and you know that I could always use more. ;-)
