VT: Veggies Around the World VII

by Ek01

(“Agent Junior”) In the final part of the “Around the World” series, the veggie kids get taken along for the ride on an action-packed spy mission across Europe with a super deadly...yet super funny female secret agent. Meanwhile, Bob and the other veggies stay with the French Peas’ eccentric parents in their mansion—on Big Idea’s “Preachin’ Across Europe” tour.

8. Junior’s confession

Onboard the plane, Junior gazed at Laura. Shirley had gone away for some reason, leaving the plane on auto-pilot. He took in a sigh, remembering the great times they'd had together on the sets of VeggieTales—the Rumor Weed, that one with the weird looking toy guy with arms—there was just something about her. And now that they were older, ever since Laura had become a bit of an action heroine to him, he considered her to be even more attractive.

"Laura," he said. "Can I, uh, talk to you?"

"Sure thing, dude!" Laura replied.

Junior and Laura walked into the cargo unit of the ship, slowly closing the door. The two kids were surrounded in total darkness, but this was good...

"Well, uh, to be frank," Junior said. "I've...I've always sorta had a crush on you."

"You SERIOUS?!" Laura smiled. "No one's ever had a crush on me before! Junior! You're the kindest guy I've ever met...and yes, I've sorta had a crush on you as well."

The carrot and asparagus locked eyes as the door slowly opened, Percy and Annie watching the two. The pea and leek giggled, and quietly snapped a photo of the two.
