Chapter Nine; The King and I
Whoa! Cookie OMG! It's about time that I heard back from you! I even have an alert thing on my profile for you! I didn't know that you were a Jeannie fan. I can't guarantee that I'll be back at that time I'm pretty busy as well but yes I thought that either you had forgotten me or you thought that I had forgotten about you. And since there is absolutely no other way to get ahold of you,
(I can't even leave comments on your Youtube page because I didn't think you would see them since you don't have any of your own videos anymore)
I didn't know what else to do. Anyway, please, PLEASE keep in touch. If only you lived around here. I see this other friend of mine all the time. Feel free to read my latest stories. There has been Jeannie of course, Doctor Who, and Harry Potter. (Snape) Alright, lots of love! _ Chucky (April)
By the way I'm afraid that this is the only way that I can talk to you is through notes in the beginning of my chapters if I want to keep my fanfiction account (and I love writing these stories so much!) because my mom really doesn't want me chatting back and forth with somebody but that won't COMPLETLEY stop me. I mean when has it ever?
*clears throat* Ahem. Now that I have that taken care of, I'll get on with the next (and final) chapter for the rest of you. Sorry, she's an old friend of mine.
Jeannie picked up the phone and started dialing Tony's number. After a few rings he picked up. "Hello?" he questioned.
"Hello Anthony this is Jeannie." She replied.
"Oh, hello darling. Listen, I'm afraid that you'll only be able to talk to me tonight. Roger isn't feeling well and he had to go to bed early." He told her.
"Oh that's alright. I mean I hope that Roger Healey feels better but I do not mind only getting a chance to talk to you. I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful day. Doctor and Mrs. Bellows took us to the zoo and some museums and then we went back to the hotel for a little bit to swim and watch some television before we went out to dinner." She told him.
"Wow, it sounds like you really did have a good day. We got your postcard in the mail shortly after you phoned us this morning. How have you been feeling by the way? With your pregnancy and everything I mean." He said.
"Oh it hasn't been that bad. I'm not getting sick as much at night anymore but I still have pretty bad cases of morning sickness. And I've been making sure to drink plenty of fluids as well." She said.
"Good, that's a good girl." He told her.
"Oh and I am very excited about tomorrow! We are going to the amusement park during the day and that's when we finally get to go see Elvis in concert!" she exclaimed excitedly.
"I know. I remember you telling me that. Tomorrow's your last day there isn't it?" he questioned her.
"Yep, we go back to Coco Beach the next day. Which even though I have been having a good time here I am really looking forward to going back home and seeing Spot again." She told him. "I have missed him so much!"
"I know you have and I'm sure that he'll be just as happy to see you after you pick him up from the kennels. Although I'm sure that he's been having a fun vacation as well playing with all of those other dogs." He told her.
"Well, I better go Master. I promised Mrs. Bellows that I would help her get the children ready for bed." She said.
"Well alright. Listen darling you have a good time tomorrow and Roger and I will talk to you when you get back home. I love and miss you very much." He told her.
"Yes darling, I love you too. And I miss you and Roger Healey like crazy. Could you please tell him that I called and I hope he feels better?" she asked him.
"Alright, I'll tell him in the morning. I'm sure that he'll appreciate that. Goodnight Jeannie." He told her.
"Goodnight Master." Jeannie said before she hung up the phone.
…
The next morning Jeannie woke up and headed down to the breakfast area with the Bellows and the children. "Wow! I can't believe that we're finally seeing Elvis tonight!" Sarah exclaimed excitedly.
"Yeah, I love Elvis." Peter began with a grin. "I especially love Hound Dog. That is my favorite song of his." He said.
"I really wish that you and Jeannie didn't have to go home tomorrow. I'm going to miss all three of you so much!" Sarah exclaimed excitedly.
"Well that's funny that you should say that Sarah." Doctor Bellows began. "Because Amanda and I have been talking it over and we want you and Peter to come back with us. We would like to make you permanent members of our family." He explained when all of a sudden Sarah's face lit up with excitement.
"Really!? Do you mean it!?" she cried excitedly as Mrs. Bellows smiled warmly at her and nodded.
"Yep, we're going to take care of the adoption progress after we get home." She told her.
"Wow thanks guys, you know what would make this moment even better?" Peter inquired with a grin while his new soon to be father grinned back at him.
"What's that Peter?" he asked.
"If we could get to meet Elvis personally and he would give us his autograph." He told him.
"Oh that can be arranged." Jeannie said while she folded one arm on top of the other.
"Come on Jeannie, now don't you dare." Mrs. Bellows warned her sternly while she shook her head and pointed her finger at her. "Elvis is a very busy man and he doesn't need you bothering him to_" she began but it was already too late. Jeannie bobbed her head, blinked her eyes, and disappeared. "Jeannie! You get back here! This is your temporary master calling!" she hollered on the top of her lungs while she quickly leapt to her feet and started turning her head and looking around for her.
"Come on Amanda, we're in public and people are staring at us!" Doctor Bellows whispered.
"Just let them stare then, right now we have much bigger problems on our hands." She told him while she continued calling Jeannie's name and searching everywhere for her.
…
"Thank you, thank you very much." Elvis said while he curled his lip and examined himself in the mirror wearing one of his most famous and legendary suits. That's when all of a sudden Jeannie appeared behind him. He widened his eyes out of complete astonishment and amazement before he whirled around to face her. "Who are you?" he asked her. "What are you doing here? Did the colonel let you in here?" he wondered.
"No." Jeannie began with a shake of her head. "I let myself in here. Colonel Nelson and Colonel Healey are in Texas on a mission for NASA. You see Mr. Presley, I was wondering if you could do me a big favor. I came here to see your show tonight with a couple of friends of mine and these two adorable children that they've decided to adopt. And one of the children is a big fan of yours and he really wanted to meet you and have your autograph." She explained.
"Ah, I see. Well you have my permission to bring them back here after the show and I'll be happy to meet him and give him my autograph, but right now I'm due to go onstage any moment." He told her.
"Alright thank you Mr. Presley! Peter will be so thrilled!" she exclaimed excitedly before she folded her arms again and with another bob of her head blinked her eyes and disappeared making Elvis nearly fall over backwards.
"I need to double check to see what's in those sandwiches from now on before I eat them." He said to himself before his manager stuck his head inside and alerted him that it was time for him to go on. Meanwhile Jeannie reappeared beside Doctor Bellows who gave out a rather large gasp and shrieked while she tugged on his sleeve.
"Oh Jeannie, how many times do I have to tell you that you have got to stop doing that?" he questioned her.
"I'm sorry Doctor Bellows but I just wanted to tell you the good news. Elvis agreed to meet with us after the show and give Peter his autograph." She told him as Mrs. Bellows smiled brightly at her.
"Really? That's brilliant Jeannie!" she exclaimed excitedly.
"You mean that you are not angry with me?" Jeannie inquired.
"No Jeannie of course not don't be ridiculous." Mrs. Bellows told her.
"And now everybody, the king of rock and roll Elvis Presley!" The announcer exclaimed before Elvis started walking onto the stage and waving to everyone while he walked over to the mike stand carrying his guitar as his entrance music played in the background. That's when all of a sudden he started strumming his guitar and singing Burning Love and Jeannie along with the two children and everyone else inside the audience started to dance.
