Rev looked at Frankie as if he were going mad."But when we're older we can do whatever we want. We can get married, eat all the skittles we want and, and..." She trailed off.
"Yes but how old do people get married?" He asked. Rev thought about it for a while. Thinking, thinking, thinking.
"I dunno..." She started counting on her fingers. "Ummmmmmm Frankie how much is this many?" She asked,
"That's ten, Rev." He answered shaking his head at the small girl. He knows she acts like she can't count to make herself look cute.
"Okay then we will get married when I'm ten."
"Rev that's in five years. Do you think our mummy's will let us?" He wondered.
"Maybe? If they don't then I will be sad." She pouted.
"What are you to doing?" Suddenly Rev's mum walked into the play room. Rev just stayed where she was, even though Frank was nervous that he and Rev were going to get in trouble.
"Playing Spider-Man and Mary Jane." She answered, her mum raising her skinny eyebrow.
"You are strange kids, you know that right?" Taressa stated. Rev just nodded. "Anyways come on I thought you were hungry." She started walking toward the kitchen. Rev jumped up and pulled Frankie toward the kitchen.
Taressa opened the fridge and pulled out some milk. Rev pulled a chair out for Frankie and motioned for him to sit in it. She then ran to the cupboard, swong it open, pulled out two small glasses, ran to the fridge, opened it up. She couldn't quiet reach the drink her and her friend loved though. Her mum reached up for Rev and Franks favorite drink and handed it to the tiny child. Rev scurried to Frank's cup and poured orange juice into the boys cup. She quickly did the same with her's.
Taressa pulled out a box of Captain Crunch cereal and a bag of Skittles. She then opened the bag of Skittles and poured half of the bag into each of the small bowls. The two tiny children loved this food for some reason, and Taressa didn't know why. She knew that both of the kids were obsessed with Skittles, but with cereal.
Rev watched as her mother poured a whole pack of Skittles into her and Frank's cereal. She started bouncing up and down. She was getting a little too exited. Frankie poked her and told her to calm down before she fell over.
"You better settle down Rev Sweetie. You'll fall and hurt yourself." The amused mother said. She always thought it was funny when Rev got exited. The small child would bounce, then fall over and start laughing till she couldn't breath.
Taressa set the two bowls of cereal in front of the two waiting children. She watched as they both scarfed the bowls of Captain Crunch with brown-ish milk and white Skittles. She always thought it was cute the way the two ate. They were always in sync. Rev took a bite and Frankie did the same. When Frankie swallowed, Rev did the same. It was strange yet cute. When they were finished she lifted the two now empty bowls, and set them in the sink.
"Thank you mummy." Rev said sounding pretty satisfied. Frankie nodded.
"Your welcome Sweetheart." The woman said. "Amanda at Gerard's house?" She asked.
"Yup I told her she had to bring him over for lunch though." Rev sighed. "I think me and Frankie will go over to Gee's right now." the tiny girl said looking at Frankie with her big brown puppy eyes. He nodded unable to resist the small girls gaze. She grabbed Frankie's hand and pulled him out the door. She knew it was dangerous outside, but she was a rebel for a child. The road was destroyed and looked as if it would suck you down into the underworld where you could never come up again. Luckily Gerard lived a few doors down.
