Chapter Six-Some Time Now
Dodge ball. Ah, the sport that testes speed, power, and reflex. It was Wednesday and the students of Elmore Junior High were having a match of dodge ball in the gym. It was an intense match and after most people either got hit with a ball or caught one, making the thrower out, it was down to two people on each side. Alpha and Jamie were trying to get their opponents out, which were Gumball and Darwin. Darwin pick up a ball and held it, blocking another ball that Jamie threw, making her frustrated and as for Alpha, he ducked as a ball flew over his head. Jamie tried another shot at Darwin but he took a quick step to the left, making Jamie miss her shot.
"Quit moving!" Jamie shouted at Darwin.
"Then quit trying to hit me." Darwin told her back.
"Sorry. No can do."
Alpha threw at Gumball but missed when Gumball jumped over the ball that was aimed at his feet.
"Ha! You can't hit me. I'm the best dodger." Gumball bragged. Alpha then quickly picked up a ball and aimed at him before telling him, "Try dodging this!" as Alpha lifted the ball in the air, and just when the ball came back in level, Alpha threw a punch towards the ball., as it made the ball come towards Gumball like a bullet.
"Ahhh!" Gumball screamed. He panicked and grabbed Darwin, placing the fish in front of him, just in time as the ball struck Darwin's face.
"Ooooohhh!" everyone in the gym exclaimed. As much as Alpha wanted to do his 'special strike' due to Gumball's taunting, he also felt bad about Darwin getting injured in the process but his thoughts were interrupted when Jamie spoke.
"Whoa man, that was crazy awesome." as she told him that, Gumball grabbed a ball and started to spin in place until he was a small blue tornado. Gumball threw the ball as is was crazy fast heading towards Jamie. She wasn't paying attention as the ball hit her in the shoulder, making her fall back down, getting out of the game and making it down to Gumball and Alpha. The two were going at it, ball after ball, flying through the air, as the two competitors were getting tired. Gumball and Alpha were thinking of a solution to win the match and they did but they both didn't know that their opponent was going to use the same idea.
"Sorry Alpha, looks like I got to end this." Gumball told him.
"I don't think so!" Alpha denying his friend.
The two picked up a ball. Alpha heaves to ball high up in the air at the exact moment when Gumball starts to spin. The blue tornado forms and Alpha's dodge ball comes down. Alpha strikes to ball with his fist and Gumball throws it as the same time. The dodge balls pass each other at quick speed before one of them heads towards the unlucky opponent first.
Alpha and Gumball went to the nurse's office to check up on Darwin when the game finished and as well with school. Darwin was sitting on a chair as the nurse was rubbing a substance to ease the pain from the hit he took. Alpha and Gumball waited for him until he was ready to leave.
"Hey Darwin, I'm really sorry about that." Alpha apologizing as the three of them were putting their stuff in their lockers and walking out the school doors.
"I'm also sorry dude, I didn't mean to do that bro." Gumball apologizing as well.
"It's cool you guys. I forgive the both of you." the fish replied, in his cheerful self. Alpha and Gumball looked at each other in questioning for a moment then shrugged it off as the trio continued to walk to the Watterson residences.
Over at the Wolfe's house, a certain fox was reading a novel as she was into the story. Mrs. Wolfe was relaxed until she had a phone call, making her stop what she was doing. She then picked up the phone to see who it was.
"Hello?" she asked.
"Hey mom, it's me." it was Alpha.
"Oh hello honey. What is it?"
"Just here to tell you that I'm gonna be at Gumball's house for the day to check on Darwin. He had an accident." Alpha telling her.
"That's fine, just don't be over for too long, I hope your friend is ok."
"Alright and me too. Love you mom."
"Love you too son. Bye." Mrs. Wolfe said as she hung up the phone. She then realized that she and her husband had some time alone. She immediately got up, sat her book down, and headed upstairs to where her husband was at in their room. When she entered, she saw him laying on the bed, listening the music with headphones on, from his mp3. The fox then climbed slowly on the bed and patted her mate's chest, getting his attention as it work when the wolf took off his headphones and turning off his music.
"Hey Jason, Alpha just called and said that he'll be over at a friend's house." she told him
"That sounds nice." Jason replied, "I guess we have some time alone, since I got a day off at work."
"That's wonderful." she said.
"Yeah. How about we go out for dinner? You know, like the old times when we were teens." Jason suggested.
"I would love to honey." she answered with a smile, showing her pearly white teeth.
"Alright! Well, we should get ready then." he said, as the two were laying on the bed, holding each other. They soon got up but before Jason was about to get ready, his wife pulled him close to her, and as they were standing, she kissed him lightly before speaking to him.
"I love you Jason." she said. Jason rubbed his nose with hers, then spoke.
"I love you too, Rose." he told her.
The couple then got ready after an hour and were ready to head out into their car. As they reached the car, Jason opened the door for his wife.
"Thank you sweetie." Rose told him.
"No problem." Jason said as he went to his side and entered the car. As he started up the engine, Rose spoke to him.
"So where are we going?"
"I'm taking you to that new restaurant that opened a few days ago." the wolf replied.
"That sounds nice." Rose said, nodding in agreement, as the two started to head to the new restaurant.
By the time they got there, the sun was setting somewhat, low, giving off a bright orange glow. Rose and Jason got out of the car and headed inside the building. They took view of the inside was what they saw was wonderful. The inside décor has the nice basic wallpaper and it also had great carpeting, along with low lighting, to set the mood. As they went up to the counter, a white female dove stood behind it.
"Hello sir and madam, welcome to 4 Leaves, how can I help you?" the dove asked in a cheerful mood.
"Um yes, a table for two please." Jason replied.
"Sure, follow me." the dove said as she took them to their table. The couple sat down across from each other at the square table and thank the white dove as she went back to her station. The two waited for a moment until the waiter showed up, as it showed to be a green male falcon. The waiter gave them a menu and a few minutes on what they wanted.
"I would like the steak." Jason told him.
"I think I want the pasta." Rose said to the waiter.
"Okay. What would you like to drink?" the waiter asked.
"The best wine you got in here." Jason answered.
"Excellent choice sir." the falcon said with a smile and left to get their orders prepared
While they were waiting, they decided to talk and enjoy each other's company.
"This is nice Jason." Rose told him.
"Yeah, you're right." the wolf said back, "Remember how we first meet."
"How couldn't I. I was reading a book at a park while walking and managed to bump into you Jason, you klutz."
"Then I helped you up and asked if you were ok." Jason added.
"I said yes and then we became friends until now." Rose finished as she look him in the eyes.
"You know, you were cute back then."
"Then what am I now?" Rose questioned.
"Beautiful." He said as he took a long look at her. With her almost white fur and her amazing white dress she wears, but what Jason loves so much are her eyes as Rose's eyes are purple that make him stare deeply at most times. He made her blush in a light red with his compliment. He thinks she's cute when she does that.
"Oh stop it, you're too sweet." She told him with a smile.
Their food was finally ready as the waiter handed them their meal. They then begin eating their food as they talk about the past times. There were some laughs and some wonderful moments as they ate and drank their wine. After an hour or two, they were finished, so the two decided to head back home. They thank the falcon and the dove as they exited the restaurant, went into the car, and drove home.
Jason and Rose made it to the house, as the two were laughing when they got out of the car, showing that they both had a good time. When they got to the door, Jason checked for his key in the shirt pocket of his black button up shirt but weren't there, then checked for it in his khaki pant's pocket and found the key to the house. Once they entered, the two headed towards the couch, and plopped right into it's comfy seats as Rose took off her white heels. They started to relaxed quietly before Jason started to speak.
"Felt like the old times huh?" the wolf asked the fox.
"Yeah but you know, it wasn't so long ago. We're 28 years old, so it was a couple years ago but I know what you mean. It was wonderful and still it."
"That's true." Jason said, "Anyways, Alpha just text me saying that he'll be here in thirty minutes."
"Good to know honey." Rose told him as she sat on his lap while he was sitting and put her arms around her husband's neck. The two were staring deeply in each other's eyes as their faces were inches apart. Jason and Rose brought their lips together and kissed for a while, having their moment, finally having some time.
Alright you guys and gals, that's chapter six done, hoped you liked it.
