Chapter 3
Aub looked around in amazement. Everywhere she looked she spotted monsters of various sizes, shapes, and colors running throughout the monster world. Maurice keeping an arm on her shoulder lead her deeper into his world. Stopping at the end of one bridge she turns and faces Maurice.
"Hey Aub what ya wanna do?" "Not sure what there is to do here," replied Aub. "That's easy we can hit the arcade, grab a bite to eat, monster ball, scare some kids, or pretty much do what ever ya want," he grinned at her. "I'm not sure what to do to be honest, how about you choose Maurice." Grinning he takes her hand in his and pulls her behind him slowly. He leads her over a bridge, down a flight of stairs, and around a corner to a dark paneled door. Here he pushes it open and pulls her inside behind him.
Upon entering the room Aubriana is surprised to see a huge ball pit. smiling mischievously Maurice gets behind her and pushes her into the ball pit. With a loud, "LOOK OUT BELOW" Maurice jumps over Aub's head and lands in it. Staying under the balls he makes his way to her and grabs her foot. She jumps slightly at his touch and he slowly resurfaces with a huge grin on his face.
Upon seeing his face she throws a ball at him then dives under the balls and quickly moves away. He dives back under and gives chase. They laugh and tease each other for a long time, and other monsters join in on the fun. As Aubriana pulls herself to the edge and pulls herself out of it, Maurice moves towards her. "Are ya having fun Aub?" "I'm having the time of my life Maurice, thank you so much for bringing me here with you." He pulls himself up next to her and grins, "I've been wanting to share this place with you for a long time, but I promised your dad I wouldn't until he said I could."
She wraps her arms around his neck and hugs him causing him to blush slightly. "Maurice you really have no idea how wonderful this is for me." "Not a problem babe, I always had a soft spot for hanging out with cool looking friends." "I take it you hang out with a lot of human's then?" "Nope, just Bri and you babe. No one ever really did catch me like your father did," he laughs. "That's how I got my horns, one bad sunburn and Bri saves my life by putting me back under the bed before the sun totally fried my bacon."
Aub look sat him in wonder, "so my dad caught you?" "Yup he trapped me up there, after that we stayed good friends." Holding out his hand he helps Aub up and then wraps an arm around her shoulder. "You gotta be tired of having these balls in your face babe, lets get a bite to eat and I'll show you around before daybreak," he laughs "Sure Maurice lead the way," she giggles.
Going over a few bridges and down a couple flights of stairs he leads her to the huge dining room. She spots food of all sorts piled up all over the tables. Maurice leads her in and pushes her gently, "Help yourself to whatever you want babe." She spots a chocolate ice cream cone and grabs it. Slowly she starts to eat it as an idea pops into her head.
She picks up a piece of white cake near her hand. Turning she spots Maurice not far away, taking the cake in her hand she throws it right at him. He turns just as the cake is sailing across the room and hits him straight on the chest. Looking down at his shirt he grins as he grabs a pizza and throws it right at her. She ducks and the pizza hits another monster in the back of the head. He turns and the next thing she knows it's an all out food fight. Trying to stay low so she doesn't get hit with a lot of food she laughs. Maurice manages to get to her but is cover from head to toe in all sorts of different food. Grinning he pulls her to her feet and hugs her, sharing his mess with hers. taking her hand in his he quickly pulls her from the room as they get bombarded with several sticky items a few which end up in her hair.
"Babe, that was brilliant we haven't had a fight like that in years," Maurice grins ear to ear. "Man your covered in so much stuff I'm not sure which part of you I wanna nibble on first," he jokes. Aubriana blushes slightly, "I'm so gonna need a shower." Maurice shakes his head in laughter, "well I suppose I should take you home then." "Will you come back tomorrow night?" "Hmmm" Maurice thinks, "do you want to come back here with me tomorrow night?" "Maurice," placing her hands on his shoulders; "there isn't anything else I would prefer to do then to spend more time with you." "Well babe, then I will gladly collect you as soon as that darn sun goes down."
With that they walked on Maurice keeping his arm resting lightly on her shoulder. As they arrive at her staircase, he leads her up and follows shortly behind her. As they climb out of bed Brian wakes up and spots them covered in food. "Wow Maurice, looks like you started a food war," Brian says. "Nope it was your lovely daughter who did it, she got the first hit on me at least." Brian looks at Aubriana and then bursts out laughing. Aub shakes her head and hugs Maurice, "I'll see you tomorrow." With that she heads out of her bedroom and towards the bathroom to clean up. Maurice and Brian spend a few minutes talking before Maurice slips under the bed to head back to his place. He has a lot to look forward to, he has a lovely young girl that he wants to show the time of her life.
