Chapter 22 – Plain Tux

The plan was set, Hope waited around the corner from Walter's desk and waited for Jack to call him into his office. As soon as she heard Walter leave, she quickly went over and opened the first drawer looking for his famous little black book. After opening all of the drawers and coming up empty, she asks herself, "Huh, where the hell can it be?"

Reaching under the desk Hope felt a hidden handle and pulled. With ease it slid from under the desk and lying on top was Walters little black book.

"Aha! Success!" she whispers to herself. Looking through it she found what she wanted, put the book back and walked briskly away.

Seconds later Walter comes back, sits at his desk and asks himself, "Why the hell would the General want to know whether or not I liked ketchup on french fries?

Five minutes later, Hope bursts into her mothers lab, "July 28th!"

"Excuse me?" Same asks looking up from the computer screen.

"June 28th is the date when nobody thinks you'll get married."

"Isn't that a little random?"

"Not really when you think about it, that's the day you went to the planet which created me."

"Then wouldn't everyone bet on that day? Because statistics have proven that days with unforgettable events are most likely the days that couples get married on, and isn't that your birthday?"

"Mom, I know all about the statistics and what not and no that is not my birthday."

"Then when is it? And shouldn't we have gone over this already?"

"Yes we should have and it's August 1st, the machine took a little longer creating me because of the damage from the storm. Now shouldn't we go tell dad when he's getting married so he can get a tux?"

"Good idea, lets go," Sam said and they walked out of the lab while saying to herself, 'No way is he wearing a tux, dress blues make that man look even more amazing then he normally does.'

Meanwhile Hope said to herself, 'She doesn't just want to tell him about the date, there's no way is she going to let him wear a plain tux instead of dress blues.'

Thanks for reading, once again I promise there will be more chapters withing the next couple of months, please review!
