Alright everyone, here's the deal.
This chapter is so short because I split it up for the purpose of suspense.
If I told everything in this whole chapter at once, it would be kind of stupid, I think.
But when I see it is acknowledged that people know this chapter is out,
I'll post the next part.
Also, I wanted to let everyone know that I am probably going to continue my other story, Flirtations, and not end it there.
BUT I'm finishing this first 3
So you guys will just have to wait.
Okay, now that we're all clear… here's chaptah twelve!
Chapter Twelve: Babe
Wally rolled his eyes as the door rolled aside to let him pass, as it was DNA activated.
"Okay, Numbuh Three," he grumbled, "what do you want?"
If he had only looked before he spoke, he would have used a completely different tone.
Yards away, Kuki was leaning on the bar facing the humungous glass bulb that withheld the inky, starry space sky. Then of course their being up on the moon illuminated the entire room with a dark blue. It was the most peaceful image Wally had ever seen. Funny, how when memories are in the making, you can never tell.
Of course, there was something horribly wrong with the picture.
Beside Numbuh Three was that suave guy from the hallway; the one dressed all nice with the pearly teeth. His back was to Wally, though.
Numbuh 77.
"Hey Numbuh Four!" Kuki chirped.
Ugh, why does she always do this…
"Hi." Wally said strictly.
Kuki's face fell at his tone.
"Hey, hey, Australia boy. How's it goin', man?" Numbuh 77 greeted, walking up to Wally, slapping his hand, patting him on the back. It was as if he hadn't seen him in years, instead of half an hour ago.
Wally looked at Numbuh 77 with a penetrating, cold stare. Him and Numbuh Three alone in a room away from the rest of the party? Not to Wally's liking.
"Oh, so you guys know each other!" Kuki said, or sighed, because she sounded pretty relieved.
"Yeah, we met earlier, babe."
Wally was suddenly enflamed at the terminology. "BABE?" he repeated rather loudly. Fortunately for Numbuh 77, Wally had learned not to act so fast when he becomes angry, obvious by the scars and fading bruises on his skin.
Um, wait. Babe? What does that mean?
Kuki chuckled nervously.
It… they… they're….
"….babe…." Wally repeated weakly, looking at them both with pleading eyes, begging for it not to be true.
Numbuh 77 looked at Wally strangely, and Kuki seemed to be wincing.
"Um… Wally…." Kuki said quietly.
"What?" How interesting was the moonlight's reflection on the tiled floor.
"He's allowed to call me that."
"Why?" Even the stars showed up in it…
"Because… he's my boyfriend."
Silence.
"Oh." Ow. "Okay." Pain. "Whateva." He had never felt that before. "See ya." Teenagers must lie, too, because that was nothing like Wally wanted to say. He shoved his hands in his pockets and walked out of the room.
What a great surprise.
