I own no one. Enjoy.
Holly sighed. She was on a high speed flare to the surface. Again. She hated this thing. She could hear the plates creaking. It made her nauseous. Foaly, on the other hand was skipping around happily. It had been years since he'd been on one of these things. The technology 'amazed him'. She could barely resist the urge to grab him by the neck and slam his head into a wall, just for being so happy. She had absolutely no idea why she was feeling so crabby. (probably b'cos I am)
She sighed again. This time Foaly came over. "What's up Holly?" he asked. He knew this was not normal crabbiness, even for someone as normally crabby as her. (I dunno why I'm using crabby so many times either)
"I don't know Foaly. That's the problem." Holly groaned.
"Erm, Holly, I may not be an expert on female matters, of which clearly this is one, but I do know one thing. There's a place, above the surface where if you sit for 20 minutes, you can't possibly be sad anymore. It's called, The Cinema, and I do happen to know that it's showing Charlie Chaplin after this."
"What's that?" Holly asked, lightened by his genuine concern.
"What?" Foaly exclaimed. "You don't know Charlie Chaplin!" he cried and wrung his hands about. "You insult to nature!" he cursed. "I must take it upon myself to educate you" (saying educate like 'ejda-ca-te ye')
Holly chuckled. "Any no matter what, I'll always be there for you Holly. You're my best friend. My only friend, come to think of it. And I'll do whatever it takes."
Holly couldn't help it. She hugged Foaly.
"EWWWW!!!" Foaly whined. "YUCK! GIRL COOTIES!!!" he said, before winking and running around in circles waving his arms about.
Holly giggled. Then laughed. Then stopped. And then burst into laughter, clutching her sides, tears rolling down her cheeks. Foaly grinned. Mission achieved.
Well, not much achieved, but it helps me feel better about not posting this up before… R&R fast, deprivation. Oh yeah, this one's dedicated to my buddies from my old school. I miss you guys and please remember me. I'll never forget my first and best friends. Thanks for everything you've done. You helped me get through every day (unwittingly as it is)
