NEW YEAR SPECIAL
THE KISS
Just a little FYI, the title was a coy.
You can leave now.
21:00
It was nine and the fireworks were only 10800 seconds away. Cat had too much caffeine by now and was eagerly counting away the seconds. They were safely in Shawn's house now although Isaac was covered in cylindrical bruises. Another FYI, it was not the Subaru Forester 4x4, it was something even worse, even deadlier, even scarier, even more potent than the Subaru Forester 4x4, it was …Aunt Betty. (Input chorus of screams and whimpers here.)
22:00
All was quiet apart from Cat counting.
23:00
(Chorus of screams and whimpers)
23:15
The sound of Cat hugging Shawn while he resists.
23:15:04
The sound of Cat snoring while sprawled on Shawn.
23:15:05
The sound of Shawn carefully removing Cat from his aching body.
23:15:12
Shawn deposits the dead body of Cat into the freezer.
Just kidding.
23:30
They had switched on the TV now and were all dozing off, waiting for time to pass. Timmy was counting hotdogs, Karl was flipping imaginary coins, Isaac was counting slippers, Cat was counting Shawns, and Shawn was counting sheep like any sane man.
23:50
Nothing has changed worthy of your attention.
23:55
Karl woke everyone up as he was the only one who was not sleeping, and they sat up straight, fidgeting like fidget spinners.
23:59
(Silence)
23:59:54
(Silence)
23:59:55
(Cat gasps)
23:59:56
(Cat and Timmy gasp)
23:59:57
(Cat, Timmy, and Karl gasp)
23:59:58
(Cat, Timmy, Karl, and Isaac gasp)
23:59:59
(Collective gasp)
Sadly for them the universe just imploded.
Just kidding.
But what I'm not joking about is their cable just ran away and unplugged itself.
(Collective groan)
