Hey all. I have to agree and wonder why this isn't getting a lot of reviews either. It doesn't really stink that badly does it? You all can tell me, I won't be mad haha. Any way, I've figured that it's the luck of the draw with reviews. For any of my stories, I've never gotten anymore than about 6 reviews so to come with this story and have 9, wow I'm just amazed. If I ever get a story going that gets all those 80 + reviews, I think I'd have a heart attack.
I have actually done the idea used in this story with my cousin when I was very little to his sister. We got in some major trouble for it, so I don't recommend it.
Love from the Future- Chapter 13. Magic Underwear.
Kaitlyn's idea involved the underpants again. She had Sophie and Erik's full attention, they didn't know what to expect, but that was half the fun. When the underwear was brought up, all three went into hysterics.
"I love our maturity level" Kaitlyn laughed, her face and ears turning all red.
"Piss on maturity," Sophie yelled. "I'm immature and I'm damn proud of it too."
"Does your foul mouth affect you mature-ness?" Erik asked. "I've lost track on how many times I heard a dirty word come out of your mouth."
"Just because you were raised like that doesn't mean we all were."
"I stand by my complaint."
Sophie rolled her eyes. "Erik, 'damn' is not a dirty word."
"Didn't hear that."
"Damn"
"Still didn't hear that."
"Damn."
"Can't hear you."
Sophie got up and moved to the back of the room. Her arms were crossed and she watched Erik out of the corner of her eye. Oh great, he thought. She's planning something. Sophie winked at Kaitlyn and moved closer to Erik, draping her arms around him like a mink stole. Erik tried to pretend he didn't like that and then tried to find the words to tell her to get off. She leaned in really close to his ear and rubbed his shoulders. "Damn" she whispered jumping back closer to Kaitlyn for protection.
The two girls burst into laughter again, crumbling to the floor while trying to hold each other up. "Hey, give me five" Sophie exclaimed holding up her hand.
"Why? What did I do?"
"No, you didn't do anything. Just hit my hand… And YOU" she said turning her attention to Erik, who was trying to sneak away. "You stay right there."
"I have been had" was all he said.
"Now, Kaitlyn. Back to you; it's easy. Just put your hand out."
"What for?"
"So I can say hello like Wayne Gretsky, that's why" Sophie protested wondering if it was really worth it just for a traditional celebration move. At least she didn't smack her on the butt!
"Who's he?"
"Never mind."
"So, anyway. Back to the idea," Erik interrupted them, desperate to get the conversation flowing back to something he could talk about.
"Oh yes, right. Anyway, what I was thinking is to collect her underwear or anything else she doesn't' want shown, put them on a pole, and parade around with them in public for the entire world to see. It's beyond embarrassing and it can't miss!"
"But who will hold them? We very well can't without being seen!"
Both girls realized Sophie was right and got quiet, mourning over their lost idea. It looked like it was back to the drawing board for them. It was a good plan, but there was just no way. It would give them away for sure; a one way ticket out to fire-Ville. Population: Two.
Erik sat by and watched the girls mope about with a faint hint of amusement in his eyes. "Girls have you any idea who I am?"
"Not now Erik, we don't want to play."
"Yeah, we just had our hopes and dreams cut to shreds by the harsh reality of how unjust the world is. How will we ever go on?" Sophie asked throwing her body down dramatically.
"Oh but how quickly you forget I'm a master magician."
"Yeah? Are you coming to a point?"
"So I can help you."
Sophie pulled a pillow over her head and spoke into it, causing her voice to become all muffled. "We need a creative team…Not a magician." Kaitlyn took the pillow and threw it across the room with revived energy.
"Hey, I needed that!"
"Not now, this is important!" she said excitedly, "he's a magician. He can help us. She'll think they're possessed or something, ohh this is better then I ever thought" she squealed bouncing around in a circle, tripping over her feet.
Before Erik knew what hit him, he had two warm bodies attached to him ready to do anything and everything he asked. He wrapped his arms around them both and hugged them close. They really were good kids, even if they were giggly, smart alecks, and immature at times. He was glad he had them both. Hearing the shuffles from down the hall told them that ballet rehearsals were just getting started. Sadly, Kaitlyn unwrapped herself from his arm and headed out. "You two go over the details, I'll get them from you later on. Bye for now." She scampered out, then returned five seconds later.
"I forgot something," she explained nervously. She summed up all the courage she had and kissed Erik on his unmasked cheek. "Bye and thank you."
Sophie looked up at him chuckling, "I think you made a new friend."
"Do you know?"
"I do" Oh, shit. It was only after she said it did she realize what it was she said and how it must have sounded. "I mean, uh, I really believe you made a new friend." Nice recovery she told herself. But don't deny it... You had no problems with how it came out the first time.
"You know," Erik asked her laying his chin on her head, "Before you came here, she was a quiet little mouse who was never naughty and did what she was told."
"Well, what can I say, Erik? I'm just good at turning people over to the dark side. Loud and Proud."
"You mean like yourself. Complete with Dirty words and revengeful ideas by the plenty?"
"Well for starters, it was not me who came up with the revenge full idea, but yes. Exactly." She said poking him in the leg.
"God help anybody who declares war on you." He murmured holding onto her tighter.
"Whoa, I missed that. One more time?"
"Stay around and protect me."
Protect him? He doesn't need any protection! If he needs protection, I am the Pigmy Queen. Maybe he's just in a 'mood.' Humor him, yes good idea. Humor him.
"Of course Erik," she said rubbing his head as he closed his eyes. "Always."
