'Thoughts'

"Spoken"

Last time:

"Alright sounds like a plan" replied Squidward, as he headed to start tidying up in preparation for vacuuming then entertaining later.

Meanwhile SpongeBob wrote the formula and called Plankton to come over for dinner for the dual purpose of collecting the formula and meeting Kaley, he then went on to prepare and cook dinner having it all ready by 7:30 when the first knock happened on the door.

Present!

"Hey Squidy can you get that for me! Im just finishing getting the dinner settled into finish!" called SpongeBob from the kitchen as he loaded the stakes into the oven to finish cooking.

"Sure thing Sponge!" Squidward said as he walked towards the door only stopping long enough to store the vacuum in the hall cupboard.

The first to arrive was Plankton. That was to be expected he had a shorter drive then Kaley did.

"Hello Plankton and welcome please come on in." Squidward the ever gracious host said as he showed Plankton in.

"Hello Squidward, and thank you for having me. These are for you and SpongeBob." Plankton said hold out a nice planter of different types of flowers with some small decorative grasses in-between.

"What a lovely planter! Thank you Plankton! "Said SpongeBob as he entered carrying glasses of wine for the three of them.

The three of them sat down and shared a couple of small pleasantries with SpongeBob giving Plankton the formula to get it out of the way. They were in the living room when they heard the doorbell go off.

"I'll get it!" said SpongeBob as he got up to do just that.

When SpongeBob was out of the room Plankton turned to Squidward.

"look I just want you to know that me and him{he gestured in the general direction of the entrance} that's all ancient history there's nothing to worry about from me, and really you don't need to be worried anyways. SpongeBob is a good man a trustworthy man and he would never ever even think of stepping out on you." Plankton said having seen the closer than usual place Squidward sat to SpongeBob.

"I know but given histories it's...difficult. Im sorry that my attitude has been bad but...given certain circumstances I'd rather forget it can be understood. I'll try and relax a little bit, but just give it a little time. Alright?" was Squidward's only response.

"I understand take all the time you need." Said Plankton.

Meanwhile:

"Coming!" SpongeBob called as he walked towards the door.

He opened the door with a large smile on his face.

"Kaley! Just look at you! You haven't changed a bit!" said SpongeBob as he threw his arms around his cousin.

"Haha hey SpongeBob, how are you? I've missed you so much!" Said Kaley as she wrapped her arms around her favorite cousin.

"Im doing good really! Well besides the crud our boss is trying to pull but that'll all be explained later! So! What have you been up to? I love what you've done with your hair! Gorgeous!" replied SpongeBob as he stepped back to look at his cousin.

"Hahaha thanks SpongeBob! I honestly haven't been up to much just work and the usual. I got a new assistant jenny nice girl not too good with the business yet but were getting there! The hair is actually new just last month I figured I needed a change and went for it." Replied Kaley as she came inside.

"Well it came out wonderfully!" SpongeBob said as he closed the door.

The two continued to chat and catch up a little as they walked back towards the living room.

"Just so you know Plankton is in there with Squidward so it's a little tense but Plankton is needed for this." SpongeBob told her as they neared the living room.

"Alright sounds like a fun evening." Kaley replied.

The next thing SpongeBob knew Kaley had grabbed his arm and pulled him into the kitchen across from the living room.

"That is Plankton?" Kaley whispered to SpongeBob as she pointed to the living room.

"Yeah why?" responded SpongeBob curious as to what had gotten into his cousin.

"Woulda been nice had you told me he was a hottie! I woulda worn the nice dress!" replied Kaley.

"That dress is gorgeous and brings out the highlights in your eyes and hair! Wait wait wait! You think Plankton is cute?" said SpongeBob.

"Yes!" replied Kaley.

"Well ok then you'll sit next to him tonight!" said SpongeBob with a gleam in his eyes.

"WHAT!" yelled Kaley.

Meanwhile:

"Squidward...who is that gorgeous creature with SpongeBob?" asked Plankton.

"Huh? Oh! That's Kaley, his cousin." Squidward said as he looked to were Plankton was looking.

"That's his cousin? Whoa!" said Plankton clearly at a loss of words.

"Wait you like her don't you?" said Squidward unconsciously mirroring the look in SpongeBob's eyes.

"I don't know her so I can't know if I like her but she's cute and gorgeous." Replied Plankton.

"Then you'll sit with her at dinner tonight." Replied Squidward.

"WHAT!" Plankton yelled.

SpongeBob looked over at Squidward and started laughing when he saw the look on Planktons face. When Squidward saw the face Kaley was making he started laughing also. They were definitely going to do some match making.

SpongeBob and Kaley finally walked over to the living room, Kaley with a glass of wine herself. They joined the other two and Kaley ended up sitting next to Plankton.

Maybe 10 minutes later SpongeBob excused himself to go finish up dinner and Squidward offered to help. Leaving just Kaley and Plankton in the living room.

The two sat and avoided looking at each other awkwardly.

"You know what? No this nope not gonna happen." Said Kaley as she slid over slightly closer to Plankton.

"What's not going to happen?" Plankton asked with a confused look on his face.

"Im not dancing around this or you for that matter your cute so im not gonna hide the fact that I think that." Stated Kaley matter of factly.

"Oh well that's good, because I think you are gorgeous. Say would you by chance want to maybe go out tomorrow?" asked Plankton.

"Definitely! But wait one thing...you wanna be taller?" Kaley agreed and asked in return.

"Uhh I'd like to but that's kind of impossible?" Plankton admitted with a curious tone at the end.

"Nope not impossible haha I bet SpongeBob forgot to mention I have some interesting abilities didn't he?" said Kaley.

"Uh yeah he never mentioned any interesting abilities." Said Plankton.

"Cool, just so you know im a bit magical and I can make you taller if you want haha I can also obviously do other things with the abilities I hold." Replied Kaley.

They heard SpongeBob shout from the kitchen/dining room area.

"Dinner!" SpongeBob called.

Meanwhile in the kitchen while Kaley and Plankton were talking:

"So do you think they'll actually admit it/" asked Squidward as he drank his wine after setting the table.

"Haha definitely. Me and my cousin are a lot alike in that sense remember?" said asked SpongeBob as he pulled out the steaks.

"Of course I do Sponge. That nice dinner your parents had and invited me to not my parents but me... then I do believe they pulled the same thing we did, leave the room and go finish dinner and hope for the best." Squidward said as he sat his wine down and walked over behind SpongeBob.

"Haha yeah and if you remember it was just about the same dinner I think the only difference was it was chicken and not steak." Replied SpongeBob as he leaned back against Squidward when he felt his arms wrap around him.

"Yes that's right it was chicken...hmm that was a good night. Especially considering your parents let me stay over." Squidward said as he leaned down to softly kiss his Sponge

SpongeBob leaned into the kiss softly humming in response to what Squidward had said. They stayed like that for a couple of minutes just softly kissing as they both reassured themselves that yes indeed things were going bad but yes they were going to get threw it together.

They pulled apart a few minutes later and finished putting dinner together. They brought everything to the table and made sure the wine was there as well.

"Dinner!" called SpongeBob once everything was settled and he had stolen one last kiss from Squidward.

The other two entered the room slowly looking around because neither had really seen the kitchen {not even Kaley when she had dragged SpongeBob into the room}.

"Well come on we don't want dinner to get cold now do we?" Squidward said as he stepped over to the table with SpongeBob.

"This looks fantastic SpongeBob!" Kaley announced once she had gotten to the table.

The kitchen was done in nice reds and oranges and the dining area was done in blues and greys so the two rooms together looked like a nice sunset or sunrise.

"Thanks Kaley! I hope you both enjoy!" SpongeBob said as he sat in the seat Squidward had pulled out for him.

They ate in silence for a couple of minutes SpongeBob and Squidward both just enjoying the peace and Kaley and Plankton both in silent bliss over the food.

"This is really fantastic SpongeBob!" plankton said once he was able to talk again. Kaley nodded along with what he was saying still too caught up in the food to talk.

"Thank you so much! I wasn't entirely sure what to make so I just went with steak and and veggies." Replied SpongeBob.

They continued to just enjoy the meal no-one wanting to be the one to bring up the main topic of discussion for tonight's get together.

Finally after they were all done and the dishes cleared away, all four of them along with glasses of wine went back to the living room and the seating arrangement was much the same as it had been before dinner that being Squidward and SpongeBob on the one sofa and Plankton and Kaley on the other one, of course everyone was sat a little closer this time understanding the need to be close because this topic of conversation was bound to be tough.

"So you both know why we called you in...we've...uh...had some issues with certain people lately and you both have skills that can be helpful." SpongeBob started nearly ten minutes later.

"SpongeBob whatever I can do to help I will I mean I know I owe you that much at least." Plankton said with a look that clearly said he meant what he said.

"Yeah you're my cousin and I also owe you a ton, so anything you need Ill figure out how to make it happen." Kaley said as she straightened out the skirt of her dress.

"thank you both of you and you know we normally would have handled this ourselves like we usually do but beings as this is a pretty serious matter so we needed all the help we can get." Said Squidward as he wrapped his arm around SpongeBob.

"Definitely whatever we can do. So what happened?" Plankton asked.

"He called us into his office and he accused us and then with using exact words he threatened to fire us." SpongeBob said.

"Alright word for word what was said. I don't doubt you so don't go there but I need to know everything that was said so when we take this {insert tractor trail honk and train whistle here} down we can legally pursue him afterwards and trust me there will be legal ramifications." Kaley stated with a serious look on her face.

"Alright so he calls us into his office..." Squidward proceeded to explain that day to them.

"SpongeBob grab me a copy of the employee manual/rulebook please." Kaley said as she pulled out a pair of glasses.

SpongeBob did as asked and Kaley quickly read threw it.

"Alright well, according he cannot legally fire you for being together, and if he does he's a homophobic asshole who shouldn't be in customer service anyways and legally you could press charges if that is the case." Kaley said as she closed the manual, and slid her glasses back into her purse.

"Wait seriously?" asked Squidward.

"Yeah it's all there, like he said there is no rule forbidding inter-employee dating. That being said and written as fact gives him no legal way to fire you two for dating, and frankly if he does I'll gladly represent you and see his ass fried." Kaley said all of this with a look that showed she knew exactly what she was talking about.

"You're a lawyer?" asked Plankton.

"Technically im a legal assistant and a lawyer I play both roles, plus my own boss." Kaley replied.

"alright so basically that being said he can't do anything against us, that's not likely to stop him though and we have to go In tomorrow morning." SpongeBob said sounding nervous.

"Alright well obviously he's going to try and start something...hmm...what can...I got it!" Plankton said as he jumped up.

"What's your plan?" Squidward asked.

"Im going to raise a little havoc of course it'll be enough so that it'll disturb him enough that he won't be able to do anything." Plankton said already thinking of something to do.

"What kind of havoc?" asked SpongeBob curious and a little worried.

"The usual a couple machines and 'attempts' at the formula, nothing major but enough. Then after tomorrow we'll have to see...hmmm" said Plankton with a contemplative look towards the end.

"What's up?" that came from Kaley.

"Tomorrow is my poker night." Replied Plankton with a smirk on his face.

"So?" asked Squidward.

"You both remember who my Poker 'buddy' is don't you?" replied Plankton.

"Who...oh...oh...OH! That is brilliant." Said SpongeBob as an idea hit him.

"Am I the only one who's lost?" asked Kaley.

"No but im probably less lost then you." Squidward replied.

"Kaley! Remember what you said about making me bigger?" Plankton said full attention moving to her.

"Yes, of course I do why?" Kaley asked in response.

"Is it permanent or temporary?" was the next rapid fire question from Plankton.

"Either or. Wait wait! Are you saying he's your poker buddy?" Kaley said.

"Ooh permanently tall...huh I could like that! Uh but anyways yes he is, and if im tall I can wear a wire and get any of his plans I can out of him." Said Plankton.

"How would you explain the sudden growth?" asked SpongeBob fully on board.

"Lab experiment, or something similar." Said Plankton.

"I don't like the idea of you doing that...but it's for them soo alright. I can do it at any time you're ready." Kaley said with a look at Plankton.

They plotted many hours into the night, so late in fact that both Plankton and Kaley had to stay overnight.

A/N: alright! That's the meeting! And just in case anyone was wondering Kaley's eyes are a mid-brown that look almost red and her hair is a honey brown with highlights and low lights of various shades of brown the dress she was wearing tonight was a light brown at the top that faded into a dark almost black brown at the end. With black heals and tan tan tights...she's a mermaid who can lose the tail if she wants to. She had sapphire blue earrings and a nice sapphire necklace as well and her glasses were small rectangles in shape that were also brown/black in color. Also both Plankton and Kaley will be more permeant fixtures in the story soo probably next chapter will include parts of the date weather it's as gossip with SpongeBob and Kaley or actual scenes from the date I haven't decided yet. Alright that's it! Until next time!
