"Amanda, I'm home!" Claire shouted as she entered her house.
"Perfect timing, I was going send the police after you disappeared out of thin air."
Claire stared blankly at the housemaid.
"Har har Amanda. Har har." Claire told her. "But other then that I have something else to say."
"And what's that?" Amanda asked with a smile.
Claire whistled, and in came the Care Human troop. Amanda must have known who they were because her first reaction was,
"Sweet Ruby Tuesday! What happened to the Care Bears?"
"We're assuming it's Grizzle." Claire told her.
"Then Grizzle must have made one heck of a machine to turn the Care Bears into human then! I thought you said he would have been dumb to do something powerful like that."
"Well it turns out I was wrong." Claire told her.
"It can't be all that bad could it?" Amanda asked, looking at Oopsy. Claire looked at Oopsy too.
"It's not all THAT bad." she finally said. "But it's still bad." she said turning back to Amanda.
"Of course." Amanda agreed. "You'll find a way to get them back to normal Claire. I know you can."
"Thanks Amanda." Claire said. "But it's going to be an adventure just letting them get under Dad's nose. You know? And what if Kelly comes over? Oh no... oh no... Amanda, I think I'm getting ready to freak out!"
"Breathe and think nice things." Amanda said, using a calm voice.
Claire closed her eyes and gave a sigh; a sign that she was in perfect peace. That is, until a was found.
"Hey Claire, what's this video that's marked 'Claire's Recitals'?"
"Let's put it in the VCR!"
"That's an awesome idea!"
"Amanda I'm freaking out!" Claire shouted as the video started to play. Claire recognized the first dance as Uptown Girl by Billy Joel, it was made back when she was in elementary school. All the Care Humans in the room had to look at a tiny Claire dance around the stage with three boys and one other girl.
"You were so cute when you were younger Claire!" Cheer gushed.
"Thank... you?" Claire said, not quite sure what to say.
Oopsy stood next to Claire.
"You really were a cute kid, Claire." he told her. Claire looked at him and gave him a pat on the shoulder.
"You need to work on your sucking up. But otherwise, I would have believed you."
Oopsy smiled like he had done something that made him feel proud. Claire couldn't help but smile at him.
"How about you two go up to Claire's room and talk things out. I'll cover crowd control down here." Amanda offered, knowing that she was going to be the blame for a lot of things later for this.
Claire looked at the Care Humans enjoying her old recital dances, and then at Oopsy. Then, she started to into the direction of her room tugging Oopsy behind her.
When they got into her room, she let go of Oopsy's hand and quickly ran over to her bed. She threw herself down in exhaustion.
"You've been wanting to do that. Haven't you?" Oopsy asked as he walked over to the bed and sat down.
"Yes I have." Claire groaned as she rolled over, then sat up. "But that's beside the point. Amanda send us up here for a reason. And I have a feeling you have something to say about this experience so far."
"What?" Oopsy asked, looking surprised.
"Gossip. Tell me what you know about what's gone on and why you're all to dumb to fix it."
Oopsy looked at her for a few moments, then realized what she was trying to say.
"There's nothing really to say."
"Why?" Claire asked, having a feeling that one syllable words were going to go somewhere with this interview.
"We feel different but..."
"You mean 'feel' as in emotion or 'feel' as in touch?" Claire had to ask.
Oopsy sat back and thought about it.
"Emotion." he finally said. "It's like... some emotions magnified, some died off a lot, and others came up that never existed before. It's scary."
"What do you mean?" Claire asked, getting a bit freaked out. Oopsy looked at her, and then down at her hand. He put his hand on hers and whispered, a bit scared to admit it,
"Don't freak out of me," he told her, "But... I think I love you."
Claire's eyes grew big in both horror and shock.
"What did you just say?" Claire asked, more or less wanting to hear him say it again.
Instead of saying it again, Oopsy leaned in and gave Claire a small kiss on the lips.
"That's what I thought you said." Claire told him.
"Was that your First?" Oopsy asked.
"Say what?"
"Was that your First Kiss?"
Claire looked at him, before she gave him the word he wanted to hear.
"Yes."
"Claire!" Grumpy said as he walked into the room, "We need your..." Grumpy looked at Claire and Oopsy sitting on the bed.
"Oh... were you two having a... oh..." he said, backing away a little.
"What is it Grumpy?" Claire asked, standing up away from the bed.
"We needed your help getting the DVD player hooked up." Grumpy responded, looking from Claire to Oopsy and back again.
"More home movies?" she asked.
Grumpy nodded his head. Claire scoffed and started toward the door.
"Follow me." she told him, as she spun Grumpy around and walked toward the living room. "Just my luck too." she muttered under her breath.
