Chapter 311
In collaboration with Vasmasdas1. He knows how to make awesome ideas! Yeah!
(August 28. McBride Residence.)
Clyde looks to himself in the mirror and he smiles. "This is it Clyde, today your gonna have a nice all day date, with the girl you met from Baking/Cooking Camp and Ding Dang darn it you are gonna show her a good time and that you are as good as a guy as you told her."
Clyde looks to his two cats, Purrsephone and Cleopawtra. "Wish me luck gals, this kid has a date with a girl who could be the one to start my own sparking relationship! I hope."
Clyde is wearing a blue short sleeved jacket with a yellow polo inside, black jeans and his signature black shoes. 'Lincoln is right, having some new clothes really does make me feel like a changed kinda guy.'
Clyde makes his way out of his room and down the stairs and now he sees his dad's on the couch in the living room. They go towards him. "Clyde, are you sure you don't need anyone coming with you?" asked Howard.
"Dad's, I got this. Seriously, I can handle these things and all of my medical issues are now a thing of the past, Except for my still lingering allergy on Horse Radish for some reason" replied Clyde.
"We're still confused as to how on earth we you medically cleared on all your health problems" said Harold. "The Doctor's don't even know how you recovered."
Clyde chuckles. "Let's just say some other worldly help was involved." A few days ago, Clyde got a package from Peter Harris, it was Lincoln who requested this package from his hero-self. Inside the package is a special kind of pill, just one and was designed by an ally of FutureTech. This pill has healing properties, but only to neutralize the medical issues within the body.
So, now Clyde has no more allergies to almost anything and he doesn't need any more health junk for anywhere and he won't have issues when he does gym, so he's fit and pretty much as healthy as a normal 12 year old is. The Horse Radish allergy is still the one thing that lingers, that could be natural and Clyde was told that this is the same thing that the other Clyde used, the one who is friends with Hero Linc.
"Well, if you're sure. But are you sure you don't need your insect poison shots? You know how you are with mosquitoes" said Howard as he has the first aid kit ready.
Clyde sighs. "Dad's stop! This is not the old Clyde anymore, this is a new change and I don't wanna be treated like I'm so fragile all the time. I have to grow up and learn to take things head on with some support from friends, loved ones and family. Please, do not follow me."
Harold and Howard look to each other with concern. "Okay Clyde, just be careful out there, even though you have been when around Lincoln. We just don't want you to strain yourself with this date" said Harold.
"I got this whole thing planned out, there's nothing to worry about dads. See you guys when I get back." Clyde then walks out of the house and gets onto his bike and he rides off to meet with Chloe. Clyde is not using the tandem bike, he has his own bike in the color of yellow and blue.
Howard then looks out the window and smiles, then he sighs. "There he goes, our little angel off to his date with a girl." He then looks to Harold. "We're gonna follow him right?"
"Yes, yes we are and we're doing this because we love him" replied Harold. They both watch and they see that Clyde was no longer in view and they both had into Harold's car, but then they realize the car isn't even starting and the fuel meter is on the empty. "What the heck?"
They get out and see some gas cans filled with the fuel from their car and the tire have been removed. "What?!" Howard faints from this and Harold tries to wake him up.
Hidden from the shadows of some trees, Stella and Simon snicker and high five and then they take off on their bikes and use the walkie talkie. "The whole thing is going as planned and Clyde's dads won't do anything to mess with the date" said Simon.
Lincoln: Awesome! Meet back at the Water Tower and stand by, we got eyes in the skies should they make another move.
Simon and Stella continue on their way, and high above are Patriot and Valkyrie with cameras on their legs and the rest of the eagles have been scattered around the town with cameras on their legs.
(Gus' Games n' Grub.)
Clyde sees the arcade and is about to go there. "Glad I could catch up." He sees to his right is Chloe on her pink bike. "Looks like we're both on time and not late." Chloe is wearing what she normally wears.
Clyde chuckles. "Glad to see you here, so you wanna do some gaming and have something to eat at the arcade?"
"Sure, I heard they have this cooking arcade game that they installed yesterday. I was hoping we could play it today, since this is our date and sort of a hang out time" said Chloe.
Clyde nervously chuckles. "Yeah, yeah." They then make it to the arcade and they place their bikes by the bike racks an head on inside, and soon they spot the game they were looking for.
"Wow! Look at the game consoles!" said Clyde. The consoles were a frying pan, spatula, and a few other cooking utensils, but I plastic and not sharp or dangerous.
"Well, let's see who can cook and bake in the video game zone!" said Chloe with a competitive look, she grabs her consoles and so does Clyde.
"Let's see if this is just like Cooking/Baking Camp!" said Clyde. He puts in the token and they then proceed to go game on with each other. All while the employee of the place, Dana keeps an eye on them and she pulls out her walkie talkie.
Dana: They're Date is going well and no issues with the game pretty soon I'll have the pizza for them ready. Also, they are killing it on the new game.
Jordan: Thanks for the Intel Dana. Report to us when they leave the arcade, we're still locking out sights on his dad's and they're filling up their car now. Keep us posted and we'll keep you posted for anything else.
"Roger that." Dana puts away her walkie talkie and she goes over to wipe all the tables, there aren't any much kids in the arcade and Dana is not alone, also with her is her little brother Chaz and her friend Becky. Looks like they got some extra help with them.
(Minutes later.)
Clyde and Chloe both head out of the arcade. "That pizza was delicious and that game was also wicked awesome! Really did feel like the actual cooking, though the real cooking is better" replied Chloe.
"I agree" replied Clyde. "The real deal in cooking is the actual weight of the food your handling and the smell and feel of what you're trying to cook and/or bake. Also, a real frying pan is not that light."
"So true. So where to next Clyde?" asked Chloe. They both get onto their bikes.
"An ice cream parlor that you will love, Auntie Pam's" replied Clyde. He puts on his helmet.
"Then let's get going, I wanna see just how great the ice cream in the town is" replied Chloe. They both make their way out of the arcade's area and head off to the ice cream parlor.
Becky sees this and she waves to the eagle above. Bullet nods and he takes off after Clyde and Chloe. Bullet has a camera for the others to see what's happening.
(Auntie Pam's.)
Clyde and Chloe arrive and they park their bikes nearby and see the small line of people and kids, they do see this silver haired girl walk into her limo with 5 other girls and they're laughing as they eat their ice cream. The limo then drives off and at the same time Bullet flies high above.
Clyde and Chloe then get in line. "You are so going to like the ice cream here" said Clyde.
Chloe giggles. "I look forward to it." They then wait for the line to get shorter for their turn to get some ice cream. Unknown to them, Liam and Tabby arrive and wait by some bushes.
Liam uses his walkie talkie. "Clyde and Chloe are having no trouble and little line for them, also the place is serving up the special Double Dutch big bowl fudge almond ice cream!"
Lincoln: All according to plan, once they're done and they head off then you two can get to Auntie Pan's and get your reward and it's been paid by us.
Tabby speaks to the walkie talkie. "Thanks Lincoln, this plan is turning out into something truly delicious and fair for all of us."
Giggles: Sure is some dairy of a good time, Guess this date is moo-ing along now for the rest of us. They then hear Zach and Giggles laugh.
Jordan: Guys, this communication line is not for jokes, please stop.
Soon, Clyde and Chloe are now in the front. "Excuse me miss, but we would like to have the…" The woman then hands them the large bowl with the special Double Dutch big bowl fudge almond ice cream, and with sprinkles. "Huh, I don't think we ordered this."
"No need to worry, this was preordered for you two" replied the woman.
It was then Clyde and Chloe figured it out. 'Lincoln! You old scoundrel you!' They then take the bowl and the two spoons and they go by the picnic benches and they proceed to eat their ice cream.
"Wow! This is delicious! I am so going to wanna bring my baby sister here when we hang out!" said Chloe. She then takes a scoop of the ice cream with sprinkles and fudge.
"Where is your sister anyway?" asked Clyde as he eats another scoop.
"My mom brought her to a gig today, for a baby sister she sure knows how to get some attention and right now she's jamming it at a dance club in town" replied Chloe. Clyde has no idea how to respond to that and this is overheard by Liam and Tabby.
Liam uses the walkie talkie. "Ya'll heard that one right?"
Lincoln: Huh, so that's why Luna and Sam are going to a dance club with their band mates. Chloe's little sister must be one heck of a DJ, and I thought Lisa was the one with the many perks for jobs.
"So, where are we going to after this?" asked Chloe.
"The Royal Woods Mall" replied Clyde. "I got word that a new cook book is out and I think we should go and see what new cooking techniques are there."
"Oh, now I'm interested" said Chloe. They continue to eat their ice cream.
(Afternoon, Royal Woods Mall.)
After some nice ice cream time at Auntie Pam's. Clyde and Chloe have arrived to the Royal Woods mall and they both head on inside. "Okay, so all we gotta do is head to the book store, or the cutlery and utensils store or the bake it, make it store" said Clyde.
Chloe giggles. "You sure know about the places in the mall. Well, mostly the cooking equipped places."
"Well, I have been coming here for some time and when I found out how good I am with cooking and baking, I knew I had to check out those places for any new things on cooking and baking." Clyde then offers her his hand. "Shall we?"
Chloe is shocked he would do this. "Sure, let's go Clyde." They both hold hands and walk through the mall and head for the nearest place for cooking items and other things.
But what they don't know is that many of Lori and Leni's friends, as well as Jordan's gals are watching over them from all over the mall. Each of them either shopping, eating, doing their job or just window shopping and they all report back to Lincoln and Jordan, since the eagles can't go into the mall.
And where is Liam and Tabby? Enjoying their own ice cream date time! They deserve it.
(Hours later.)
Clyde and Chloe now have a few bags from shopping, next to searching through some new cook books and other new cooking things, they even went shopping for some new clothing since they need some when school begins and they did run into a friend of Chloe's, Emma.
"Emma sure is a nice person, you two sure know each other" said Clyde as they walk to the main door of the mall with what they have bought.
"We've been friends since and she moved into town a week ago from the text she sent me, so glad I can have my best gal pal with me when middle school begins here, and I'm sure the rest of our friends will be happy for her to hang out with us" replied Chloe.
"Same, the crew sure is expanding and I think it'll keep going" said Clyde. They then make it out of the mall and see that the sun is setting. Clyde knew it was time. ''This is it!
"So, where are we off to now Clyde? This day has been kinda great" said Chloe.
They attach their bags to their bikes and Clyde looks to Chloe. "Dinner, and no we're not going to have dinner here at the mall, we're gonna take it to someplace special that I got reserved for us."
Chloe giggles. "Looks like someone wants to go Lady and the Tramp tonight, lead on Clyde." They both ride off on their bikes with their purchases, all while the eagles follow them from high above.
The gals from the mall watch them leave and also take some pics of this cute couple that could be forged from this first date. Leni smirks. 'This reminds me of Lincoln and Jordan! So cute!'
(Lynn's Table.)
They make it to their destination and let their bikes onto the bike rack. Chloe looks to the place and she smiles. "Wow. Looks like someone got some special privileges to make this date the best for the both of us."
"I was able to convince Lincoln to ask his dad to make a reserve for us both here, and here come out guards" said Clyde. Patriot and Valkyrie land onto their bikes. "Keep an eye on our things guys, and thanks too." The eagles nod.
Chloe is stunned and chuckles. "Wow. This really does put the word Royal in Royal Woods." Then Clyde offers her his hand.
"Shall we go in?"
Chloe takes his hand. "Lead on Casanova." They both head into the restaurant and as they enter they see Kotaro leading them to their reserved table, and they see just how fancy it looks.
Red table cloth, candles with roses and two plates with fine silver wear and two handmade chairs, this kinda looks like a special dating table and there are two more. This might be a special promo for the place.
"Wow. Lincoln was not wrong when he told me at the last second that his dad would have this new promo for new young couples on their dates and chances there's gonna be lots of couples coming here for this" said Clyde.
"You think they have special couple class meals too?" asked Chloe. They both head to their seats and Clyde goes all gentleman like with Chloe and her seat. They then check the menus and are shocked. "Huh, so there are special couple meals."
They look to the menu and look at what they can order. "Wow! Looks like Lincoln's dad went up and beyond for this promo, I don't even know what to pick" said Clyde.
"Same here, they all look so amazing and at a great price too" replied Chloe. "So, how should we settle this?" She puts the menu down and so does Clyde.
"Might I literally suggest the chicken meatballs and sweet spaghetti" said Lori who goes to them as their waitress. "Hey Clyde and a good evening to you Miss Curda."
"Hey Lori, didn't think you'd be the waitress for the night" said Clyde.
Chloe chuckles. "Never thought I'd meet one of Clyde's Ex's." Chloe and Lori chuckle, and Clyde just nervously blushes and looks away. "So yeah, we'll take the chicken meatballs and sweet spaghetti, oh and can we also get the chocolate forest fudge cake as well? Oh, and some water will do for drinks."
"Sure thing, be back with your orders you two young lovers." Lori heads back into the kitchen, also there are Jessica, Whitney and Teri. They're both helping keep an eye on Clyde and Chloe, but they're not alone.
There's Trent, Kat, Joy and Lance, they too are participating in this, though Luan and Benny are also there, but they're there on a date and so are Albert and Myrtle, and it seems Scoots is also there with a few of her biker pals.
"Nice pick, for a minute there I was gonna panic and go for almost one of everything, but that'd be too much and could give Lincoln's dad a heart attack" replied Clyde. They both chuckle at this.
Clyde then takes a deep breath. "Chloe, I just wanna say that I have been…. I mean, we have been having the best time ever since we first met on the bus and on our way to camp, and I can never be more grateful for that. To be honest, I really, really like you."
Chloe is shocked, but she smiles. "Wow Clyde. I don't know what to say… I mean, I also feel the same thing." This shocks Clyde, she likes him too. "This whole time, ever since I moved to Royal Woods with my family, I was kinda nervous and I didn't know if I could handle being at a new place, that's why I went off to baking/cooking camp. So, I can try and start making friends when classes begin, and then I met you and we both enjoyed each other's company and told each other all about the things we've done."
"You're a really nice boy, and at times funny too. You make some mistakes, which I recall from the stories you've told, but that was all in the past and a result of your overbearing dad's just trying to treat you like the whole world was dangerous. But you're changing, you're becoming a better kind of person for the future you wanna take and to make sure that whatever gets in your way, you can accomplish."
Chloe starts to blush. "I was kinda nervous about telling you how I feel, I was kinda having some bad vibes it would make things totally awkward between us, but now that I know you feel the same way. I couldn't be happier to know that and I wanna see if we can make this happen. Like our … Our."
"Our own Sparking Relationship?" asked Clyde.
Chloe giggles. "Yeah, that." They both stare at each other and hold hands, both of them could feel this was going to be the start of something special and new.
"Looks like we're both going to be having some talks with our friends about this" chuckled Clyde.
Chloe giggles. "I can't wait for them to know and for us to try and see if this can be … Be our future."
Now that was something they were both looking forward to.
All the while, they're friends and Clyde's dads were seeing this from the kitchen and smiling. "See? He's got this and he doesn't need to be helicoptered by you two. Let him be who he wants to be and he'll let you guys know when he needs some support" said Lincoln.
Howard and Harold shed some tears seeing this. "Okay, I think we can handle that."
"Our little boy is growing up, it's almost like he's going to college" said Harold. They then hear Lynn Sr crying and going to the corner.
Lori sees this. "Oh boy, thanks for reminding him what I'm supposed to do soon." She goes over to comfort and reassure her dad. "Can someone please bring the food over to Clyde and Chloe?"
"I got this" replied Grant.
Lincoln and Jordan look onward to the moment their friend Clyde and new friend Chloe are having. "You think we should have a date?" asked Jordan.
"Tomorrow, we're gonna be spending an awesome time and chances we might catch up with Sadie and Mollie and it becomes a double date" replied Lincoln.
Jordan leans her head onto Lincoln's shoulder. "Now that sounds lovely my handsome white-haired boy."
To be continued …..
