Sorry guys this is another old one because I'm tired and I have these journals due for school tomorrow? That I didn't start? But I started a really good drabble which I need to rewatch the episode for, and I'm looking forward to writing it!
In the Wilkerson house, there was always this unsettling air. A ball of thick tension in the air surrounding all of them, the elephant in the room that no one really wanted to bring up.
That elephant was in the form of Malcolm and Reese.
They all had sort of suspected something for a long while, but lately their sexual tension had been overflowing and nearly flooding the entire house. Dewey had noticed it first, sharing a room with them and all, with their side glances and small touches and generally uncomfortable closeness. Then Francis knew, because Reese had mentioned something, being Reese. And finally, Lois and Hal thought MAYBE something was going on, but chose to ignore it. I mean, after all, they couldn't afford to send them to military school, so why not pretend like everything was fine?
They also had this feeling that the other members of the family knew too. Even though no one ever talked about it, there was an uncomfortable air of silence that spoke more than any of them could.
But despite it being taboo and frankly borderline awkward for the rest of them, Dewey and Francis had to admit that they kind of... suited each other. Reese was an idiot who needed guidance, and Malcolm needed someone to stroke his ego in all the right places (which, thinking about it now, put some very disturbing imagery in their minds).
Anyways, the point was they'd be basically one perfect couple and would probably give them some peace and quiet. To be honest, Dewey just wanted one day away from them 'wrestling' because of whatever dumb reason it was that time. So if getting them together was what it took, then he guessed violating every moral code ever was the price he'd have to pay.
