I have returned, my friends!
I deeply apologize for my absence; I had to deal with some real world problems at school. To make up for it, I give possibly my longest chapter yet!
Here is the Nuralagus.
Nuralagus- Minorcan Hare
90 centimeters long, 30 pounds
Role in Darrel's arsenal: Swarm
Melee attacks: N/A
Abilities: A DNA-enhanced version can make up to 7 solid copies of himself, but each can only last at the most a half-hour, depending on how much Aura is used.
A DNA-enhanced version can charge and emit a yellow beam of energy that at full power, can annihilate a SKYSCRAPER!
And here it is, the 25-page story!
The next morning, when Blake awoke, she noticed that Darrel was no longer a bunny, but his ordinary self. She also noticed that his arms were wrapped around him.
'He must have changed back.' She thought.
She ran a hand through his slightly spiky brown hair. She then brushed her hand against his beard and sideburns, and then his mustache. This did wake him up.
"Good morning, sweetie." Blake greeted him lovingly. "It's always a good morning with you around." Darrel said, kissing his girlfriend.
"I will go change and start packing." Darrel stated, slowly getting up.
"Packing for what?" Blake asked, confused.
"For Fall break!" Darrel, stated, excited. "I should probably pack then, too." Blake said.
Darrel leaves, and quietly shuts the door. Unfortunately, it did wake all the other girls up.
"Hey, where's Darrel?" Ruby asked.
"He went to pack for Fall break." Blake stated.
"And I guess you're going with him?" Yang inquired. "Of course!" Blake said, ecstatic. "So, what are your plans for Fall Break?" She asks her friends.
"Well, we invited the guys to come with us." Ruby & Yang said.
"Same with Isaac."
"Jaune asked me to see his family."
"Me & Ren are going to my family's farm."
"I'm just going to sit it out with my team." Velvet said.
Blake grabs a change of clothes and heads into the bathroom. While there, she grabs her shampoo, her body-wash, and her toothbrush.
She exits and then grabs her suitcase and starts packing a week's worth of clothes.
"So, what do you think Darrel plans on doing while the two of you are at C-ville?" Ruby asked.
"Probably show me around town. And he did mention his mom is a chef of a restaurant, so definitely a place to check out." Blake explained.
"Well then, have fun!" Yang said, giving her partner a hug. "Promise you'll call every day?"
"Yes, mom." Blake says sarcastically.
"Knock, knock. Here's Danny!" Darrel says sing-songy. "I'll get it." Weiss said.
She opens the door, revealing Darrel with a suitcase and a backpack.
"Well, Blake shall we get going?!" he said enthusiastically.
Blake simply smiles and happily walks over, suitcase in tow.
"Have fun, you too!" their friends state.
On their way out, the two grabbed some breakfast. Then they head not for the airships, but to the garage.
"Why are we heading to the garage instead to the airships?" Blake asked.
"Because we are taking my ride." Darrel stated with pride.
He opens a key pad. 6-11-93 is the code. He opens a door, revealing his ride: a Jeep with very specific colors.
"Is that the car from Jurassic Park?" Blake stated, surprised.
"You've heard about the franchise?" Darrel said, stunned. "Heard of all four. My favorite is the first." She stated.
"I prefer the most recent." Darrel said. "So then, let's get going."
The two place their stuff in the trunk and climb into the front of the car, with Blake in the passenger seat and Darrel in the driver's seat, and the drive away from Beacon.
"So, what plans do you have for us?" Blake asked.
"Well, I do plan on showing you the 5 major spots of C-ville: the library, the park, the restaurant my mom works at, a frozen yogurt shop, and my personal favorite: The Ring." Darrel explained.
"What's the Ring?" Blake asked. "The Ring is simply a coliseum where everyone at C-ville spars." Darrel stated. "So, its used for combat practice?" Blake inquired. "Yes."
The two continued to drive until they arrived at the outskirts of C-vile. It was now Noon. They stopped at a sign that said Welcome to C-ville. Darrel sighed. "It's good to be home."
Darrel continued driving and as they drove, they passed by several buildings: a factory, a mall, various restaurants, a strip mall, a movie theater, etc.
They arrived at a residential district and Darrel drove down until he stopped near the end. They arrived at a house that was your basic two story house with a stone porch and a gravel drive way. Besides Darrel's car, there was a silver mini-van. 'Mom and Dad must be at work.' Darrel thought, since the jet blue SUV.
However, what caught Blake's eyes the most was the décor in the yard: 12 different metal statues of various extinct animals. They ranged in size from 6-10 feet tall.
"What are they" Blake asked motioning to the metal statues as the two got out of the car.
"You know how most homes have Homeland Security?" Darrel stated. She nodded. "Well I created the Prehistory Defenders, robots that resemble prehistoric lifeforms that protect my hometown from attack."Darrel stated.
All of a sudden, the Scorpion & Smilodon mechs activated, eyes glowing red. The two walked up to Blake, or in the Scorpion's case, crawled.
"State your business here, intruder!" the two state, twin laser cannons on the cat's back & asingular laser cannon located in the scorpion's stinger.
"Relax, Smilo & Arachnid. This is my girlfriend, Blake Belladonna. She will be visiting us during fall break." Darrel said, casually and slowly walking towards them, showing no signs of being afraid.
"I see, Mr. Maximus. As you were sir & madam." the two mechs state before returning to their posts.
The two grabbed their stuff from the trunk of the car and walked up to the ramp. Darrel ringed the door, which played the Jurassic Park theme.
They were greeted by an elderly lady with a few grays in her hair. She wore a pair of slightly tinted red glasses, a pink V-neck, brown khakis, and brown shoes.
"There's my baby boy!" the grandmother greeted her grandson with a tight hug. "Its good to see you too, grandma." Darrel greeted her.
"So, is this your girlfriend? You online journals don't do her justice." She joked.
"Blake this is my grandmother, Eunice." Darrel introduced his girlfriend to his grandmother.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Maximus." Blake greeted her, shaking her hand.
"Come in, you two must be starving." Eunice stated, motioning for them to come in.
Blake saw that the living room had carpet flooring, with wooden flooring at the door. To her left was a green recliner. To her right, was a dark blue couch. Next to that, was a chestnut rocking chair. Next to the recliner, and dividing another recliner, was a large wooden stand with a glass lamp. She also took note of the large TV in the back, with a plethora of DVDs set up on shelves near it.
"Your mom has some leftovers from Scratch it or Leave it." Eunice stated as she went down the hall.
"What's Scratch it or Leave it." Blake asked.
"Scratch it or Leave it is the name of the restaurant my mom works at. The motto is, 'If you don't like it, leave." Darrel explained. "We'll have dinner there tonight."
Two walked into the kitchen. It had a wooden floor boarding with a stove on the right side, a counter-top on both sides, and a dual sink on the left. Above their heads, on both sides, were bright orange and red cupboards. At the far right, was a dishwasher below the counter and above it, was a microwave. On the other side, was a large fridge.
Darrel went to the fridge and opened it up. "Ah here we go!" Darrel stated.
He reached into the fridge and pulled out two plastic containers.
"Here's what we got: Fillet of salmon, and Dracula's Revenge." Darrel stated their options. (FYI, Drac's Revenge is Penne pasta with sausage and heavy on garlic. My Fave dish of all time.)
"I'll take the salmon."
"Okay then, if you head to the back of the kitchen, you'll find a wooden cupboard with bowls and plates. Pick one mid-sized plate for you, and a small bowl for me."
Blake went to the cupboard and grabbed two of the said food containers. She headed back to him and Darrel holding a pair of metal tongs, grabbed a fillet of salmon and placed it in her plate. She then placed it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Darrel deposited the the tongs into the sink. He grabbed a pasta serving utensil from an area above the stove but below the cupboards. He scooped up some pasta and placed it into his bowl. He went to the silver ware drawer and grabbed two forks. After Blake's food was done, he gave her a fork and she went into the living room. Afterwards, he placed his food in the microwave, and when it was done, he joined Blake on the couch.
"Wow! This is good!" Blake complimented. "Yeah; my mom is a good cook." Darrel stated. "Once we're done, I'll show you around the house.
The two finished their lunch and then placed their stuff in the sink.
"So, what do you want to drink? We got 3 types of sodas, OJ, Apple juice, water, & milk." Darrel stated their options.
"I'll take Milk."
Darrel pulled it out & sets it down on the counter-top. He then went to a cabinet and pulled a glass out. Afterwards, he poured some into Blake's cup. For himself, he pulls out a can of orange soda.
As they head into the living room, they pass by a chest. "What's in the chest?" Blake asked. "Just an assortment of sweets. And the cabinet it sits on contains more snacks."
"And now, allow me to show you my lovely home." Darrel stated, holding his hand out. The two walked down a hallway and came to a wooden door. "This is the dining room." He opened the door, and the dining room looked like your ordinary dining room: a long circular table with 8 chairs.
"Although we have it, we often eat in the living room. We eat in here if what we are eating is rather messy.
They walk down to another door; this one was painted pink.
"This is the baby's room." Darrel stated in a cute manner.
He opened it gently, revealing a room covered in pink with various baby toys, a wooden rocking chair with a pillow, and the crib, containing a sleeping Catherine.
Darrel walked over and slowly and gently picked her up, careful not to wake her up. She stirred a little bit but, thankfully she didn't awake. He then gently placed her back in her crib. "Sleep tight, little baby." He stated, kissing her on her forehead, which made her smile in her sleep. The quietly walked out and then shut the door.
"Where to next dear?" Blake asked with excitement.
The two walked down the hall a bit and Darrel pointed to a pale white door. "That's the bathroom."
They walked down a bit more to a simple wooden door. "That's my parents room. As of now, they are at work." Darrel stated.
"What kind of jobs do they have?"
"My mom's a chef, and dad is a police officer."
Blake took note of two other doors: a green one in front of them, and a tan one behind them.
"What's that room?" Blake asked about the room in front of them.
"That's my room, where we'll be sleeping." Darrel stated seductively. Blake blushed in embarrassment " Are you serious?" "Yes. But don't worry; I already have my parent's permission." Darrel reassured her.
"And what's that room?" Blake asked about the room behind them.
"I'll tell you later after I show you the basement." Darrel said, taking her hand, and practically dragging her to the the basement door.
He opened the door and the two walked down the stairs.
The first room they came across was a small computer room.
"This is the surveillance room. I use it to patrol the town, looking for danger, and when there is danger, I alert everyone this message: For those who aren't properly able to defend themselves are to get to the bunkers, while those who can are to prepare for combat." Darrel stated.
They walked to another room. "This here is the laundry room." (Its your basic downstairs laundry room: dryer, washer.)
They came to a room that had a similar set-up to the upstairs living room. "This room is a lounge."
Darrel then took her to back near the surveillance room to a steel heavily locked door. Darrel unlocked all the locks, two of which involved a a finger print scanner and a voice recognizer.
"Darrel Maximus." he stated, but a high-powered laser cannon came down from the ceiling, pointing at Blake, startling her. "And guest." he added, the laser cannon retracting into the ceiling tile.
"This is my lab!" he stated with pride.
It had several tables set up with test tubes of various substances, diagrams and cross-sections of various beings, a large storage compartment with various equipment, and various jars of unknown stuff stacked on various shelves.
"This is where I spend most of my time if I'm not in my room or on patrol in town." Darrel stated. "I'll come back down later to do a few things."
"This is incredible!" Blake stated with enthusiasm. She took note of a large room ahead of them. "What's in there?" she asked.
"Oh, that?" That's where I run maintenance checks on the security outside, if you know what I mean." Darrel explained. "And now, time for the two main rooms.
Darrel took Blake back upstairs to the living room. "First grab your stuff." he asked. The grabbed their stuff and carted it down the hall until they stopped at the last door on the right.
Darrel opened the door, and inside was his grandmother sitting on rocking chair. There was also a storage compartment situated near the bed. There was also a nightstand set between the chair and the bed.
But, it was who was in the bed that had Darrel worried: his grandfather.
He had a wrinkles in his face and had dark gray hair with various white strands in his hair. He wore a large plain white t-shirt. He also had a large bushy gray and white mustache. Most notable of all, he had a drained look, as if he was sick.
"Blake, this is my grandfather, the man who first got me hooked on prehistory." Darrel said solemnly. "He's very sick." he added, this time with a saddened tone.
Blake put a hand on his shoulder. "You're worried about him." she said in a concerned manner. "Of course I am: he means so much to me."
Darrel moved slowly towards his grandfather and stood next to him.
"Hey Papa, how you been?" he asked softly.
His grandfather slowly opened his eyes and looked at his grandson. "Hey there, Darrel." he said weakly. He took note of the girl standing in the door way. "Who's that?" he asked.
"This is my girlfriend, Blake Belladonna." Darrel said, ushering for her to come in.
Blake slowly walked up to him. "Its an honor to meet you, sir." Blake stated.
After some small talk and an update on his condition, the two young adults left and Darrel opened the door to his room. It began with a set of wooden stairs, and on the stairway wall, was a sign said Dinosaur Drive, with a dinosaur taking a bite out of the D in drive.
They came to a large room that had what appeared to have a large dresser and the first room was a miniature bathroom. "This is my playroom, but I hardly ever use it." Darrel said.
Blake noticed of the various prehistoric animal posters put up. She also noticed two closed doors that blended into the wall, minus one that had a small sign read 'DON'T OPEN THIS DOOR AT ALL!'
"Why is that door blocked off?" Blake inquired.
"No one open this door!" Darrel slightly shouted. "But seriously, what's behind this door is frightening."
Darrel grabbed a curtain. "This is my bed room."
Darrel's bedroom was simply breath-taking!
The walls and ceiling not covered by prehistoric animal posters, was painted Shamrock green. To the right were two important things: what appeared to be a desk with a computer, and another that had a terrarium with an Iguana.
Darrel walked towards terrarium, opened it up, and grabbed the reptile.
"The final official member of the family I would like you to meet is my pet Iguana. Her name is Ingrid.
The lizard simply stared at her before turning her attention back to her terrarium, and tried to escape her master's grasp.
"Okay, I get you want back in, but first cricket?" Darrel said, before leaning over to a small box situated near her terrarium, picked up a cricket, and placed it near Ingrid, who promptly crunched it. Then he placed her back in the terrarium.
Blake took note of white plastic stand with several small prehistoric animals on all three levels, the central one having a skeleton T-Rex, Dimetrodon, and a Smilodon, the Rex having a light bulb in its mouth.
'Probably used as a lamp. Creative.'She thought.
Next to that, were three chests, containing various animals.
"You still play with toys?" She joked. "I just use them for making home movies with. I even use ketchup as a blood substitute." He retorted. "I think its cute." Blake said.
Her eyes continued to scan the room, falling on a two person chair, a rack of DVDs, and a small TV with a DVD player hooked, and all of sitting on a small wooden box. She also and air conditioner and a heater to right of that.
But what caught her eyes the most was a large bed that could fit two people, a few blankets, two pillows stacked on top of each other, and a wooden bookcase next to that. All of it situated at the far left of the room near the door.
"You have a very lovely room, dear." Blake said, kissing him on the cheek. "Thank you." Darrel said. He told her where to put her stuff, which was in the other closet, while he placed his stuff in his dresser.
"So, what do we do now?" Blake asked. Darrel took a look at the clock seated on his book shelf, which red 4:15.
"We don't have to bed at the restaurant until 6, so we have an hour and 85 minutes until we have to be there." He said as they lay back on his bed, their feet hanging over the edge.
"Well, I would like to show you the backyard; that is where I did most of my personal training."
The two got up, slipped their shoes on, headed downstairs, went to the door, of the living room, and headed down to the backyard.
The backyard had a fair amount of trees set around its perimeter, whose leaves were orange & red, some which coated the slowly turning dull grass.
Blake also saw three sheds set up. "Those sheds are used for storage."
She then saw a clearing that had an area of burnt ground with a stand of bamboo. "That burnt area is where we burn our cardboard among other stuff."
Blake also took note of a small stone patio that looked abandoned. "Long before I was born, my grandparents used this but now we've abandoned it to nature."
"However, the main reason we came out here was to practice something." Darrel said.
He then stepped into the middle of the yard and he began vibrating. Suddenly, there were two of him.
"Remember last night with the rabbit?" The main Darrel asked. Blake nodded. "I decided to try and accomplish this under normal circumstances."
10 minutes later, the clone dissipated and was reabsorbed into Darrel. "And now to the lab!" Darrel said.
Blake & Darrel entered the house via a door that went into the lab.
Darrel went to work on some robotic compartments, while Blake handed him the stuff he needed.
"Welder." "Fiber optic." "Joint articulator." "Liquid Nitrogen."
"Wait, what?" Blake stated, shocked. "I said, Liquid nitrogen. Its in the storage freezer in a small can, first shelf. You may need gloves for it though."
Blake went to a drawer, slipped on some thick black gloves, opened up the freezer, and grabbed the liquid nitrogen can. She handed it to Darrel and he installed it into his invention.
"And done." Darrel stated, lifting the goggles up from his face.
"Blake Belladonna, I give the AZ!" Darrel stated.
The AZ was a large rifle type gun with a clawed prong on the end of the barrel. Its color scheme was dark blue.
"This gun freezes anything to Absolute zero, where all motion grinds to a halt and it runs on liquid nitrogen." Darrel said with pride.
"But that's impossible!" Blake said flabbergasted.
"Babe, I specialize in the impossible!" Darrel said proudly. "Besides, I'm not using this; I'm giving this to a mech of mine: Ptera." he added.
Darrel went t a console that had a series of buttons that had symbols of each mech stationed outside. He pressed the Pteranodon button, and the door containing the mechs opened up, and the Pterosaur mech stood there, wings folded.
"Alright big guy. I'm just going to do a little upgrade to your weapons system, okay Petrie?" He said.
He opened up the panel on his back readjusted some controls, then inserted the AZ into it. Then he shut the panel.
"Alright; begin simulation." He said, activating, a remote control that activated a quintet of Beowolf holograms.
The flying mech flew over them, easily avoiding their claws. The AZ lowered down from its chest cavity and fired a blue beam of ice, instantly freezing them, before firing a sonic beam from its beak that sliced their frozen corpses in half. Then the mech landed back where it was summoned, and Darrel pulled it up back to its post via a control panel.
"Well that, along with the testing of my new abilities killed a good 40 minutes." Darrel said bluntly.
"So, we have an hour and 45 minutes left. Also, what attire should I wear?" Blake asked. "Oh what you normally wear is fine. Scratch it or Leave it is a family restaurant, beloved."
Then he went to work on yet another project. 45 minutes later, he was done, albeit covered in oil & grime. During that time, Blake watched him work or played Angry Nevermores on her Scroll.
"Finally, done with my latest project!" Darrel said. "I give you the Inch Bears!"
The Inch Bears were inch tall taridigrades, each colored Red, White, Black, and Yellow.
"What do they do?" Blake asked.
"Well, I plan on having these guys get things that I can't reach, nor as myself or as an animal. They are equipped with a variety of tentacles that can reach up to 30 feet, grappling hooks, and can survive in any environment." Darrel said. "However, they're they still have a few bugs to be fixed, so I'll have to wait until have more time to work on them. But now, I'm going to go shower and then relax in my room. You can wait for me there."
"Okay," was her sole response.
The two left, and headed upstairs. Darrel grabbed his signature T-Rex shirt, a pair of jeans, socks, and a pair of underwear. "Feel free to read any book I have." Darrel left his room and Blake sat down on his bed.
Unexpectedly, she felt her scroll vibrate. She pulled it out, and she was open to a video chat with Ruby & Yang on one screen, and Weiss on the other.
"Hey Blake!" they said, waving. "Hey guys!"She returned. "So, how are things?" she asked.
"Currently, Dad is giving our guys 'The Talk'." Yang said. "I just hope he approves." Ruby said, unsure.
"Same with Isaac except this: turns out, I'm betrothed to him!" Weiss said surprised.
"WHAT?!" The other three state, surprised.
"Yeah. Our fathers want to unite our companies together, and what better way than our marriage? Of course, once the two of us graduate from Beacon of course," Weiss explained.
"So, enough about us! What's it like there? And where's the man of the hour?" Yang asked, ending with a seductive tone.
"Its great! We've had lunch, and he's shown me around his house. And Darrel is currently taking a shower. Afterwards, we'll be going to have dinner at a restaurant his mom works at." Blake said.
"That sounds great!" Ruby said, happy.
"Well I got to go. Father needs me to talk to him." Weiss said.
"We should go and try to save our guys, sis." Yang said.
"Bye, girls!" Blake said, waving her hand and then ending the video-chat.
When Blake looked around, her eyes fell on a book underneath his L-shaped pillow. She puled it out and read the cover. 'My Life; must be his diary.' "No! I shouldn't go and violate his privacy like that!" She said.
15 minutes later, Darrel returned, his normally spiky hair even more spiky than usual.
"Well, we have 20 minutes until we have to be there. So, I suggest we get going soon." Darrel said. Blake nodded.
The two left his room, and then his house, leaving his grandparents & baby sister. The two got into his car and they drove down the street, out of the residential district, and down the road to the business district and arrived at a restaurant that read Scratch it or Leave it.
They left the car and entered the restaurant. They were soon greeted by a waiter wearing a classic black waiter style suit with green highlights.
"Ah, Mr. Maximus. Always a pleasure to see you. I see you've also brought your girlfriend with you, as well." The waiter greeted them.
"Pleasure to see you too, John. Now then, are my parents already here?" Darrel asked. "They are and have reserved a table for the four of you."
Darrel walked himself & where his girlfriend to where their table was.
Blake observed the atmosphere: kids spending time with their families, people moving to & from the various buffet tables, and the smell of good food. It gave a warm happy feeling inside.
"So I take it your isn't the main chef?" Blake inquired.
"At first she was. It started out as a small family diner, and it grew and grew until mom hired more staff and more people to be in charge. Now, this is one of the most popular restaurants in town."
The two arrived at their table. While his mom was in similar attire when Blake first met her, his dad wore a simple police outfit.
"There's my baby boy!" Janet said, hugging her son tightly. "Easy, mom. Can't...breathe." Darrel said, struggling to breath.
The two quickly sat down, and not long after, a waiter came.
"May I start you off with an appetizer?"
"We'll have the Caesar salad." Arnold said. Then the waiter left.
"So, Blake, how's C-ville?" Janet asked. "Great! Although, your home & this restaurant are the only places I've seen the inside of."
A few minutes later, the same waiter returned, with a big bowl of Caesar Salad.
"Here is your salad." He said. He then placed four small plates in a stack.
"May I get you refreshments?"
Henry asked for coke, Janet asked for sweet tea, Blake asked for water, as did Darrel.
While the waiter was gone, the four quickly divided the salad and dug in.
"This is good." Blake complimented. "Its the salad dressing." Darrel said.
A few minutes later, the waiter returned with their drinks. "May I take your orders?" the waiter asked.
Janet asked for steak, Henry asked for chicken soup, Darrel asked for the chicken leg with cheesy potatoes, and Blake wanted to try the Polenta with Turkey Meatballs.
"So, what's Polenta?" "Its like mashed potatoes, but lighter and fluffier." Darrel said.
"So, Darrel have you told Blake about the sisters?" Janet asked.
Blake raised an eyebrow at this development. "You haven't told me about them. Who are they?"
"Um, uh, they are just two girls who I spar with. Also, I beat them nearly every time." Darrel stated, slightly nervous.
"Then why haven't you told me about them?"
"They like to spar with me weekly. And there are a little aggressive." Darrel said.
"So, how did you two meet?" Janet inquired.
"It was the first day at Beacon. I saw him arguing with someone else, so I intervened. Afterwards, he followed me down just to learn my name. The rest is history." Blake explained.
Not much later, the waiter returned with their food.
Blake took her first bit of Polenta. It was soft and broke apart easily. It was also fluffy and it was coated with white sauce with flakes of assorted spices. "Not bad; pretty tasty." she said. She also a bite of the Turkey Meatballs, and she determined they were also good.
She looked over to Darrel, and saw him pigging out on the chicken: his fingers, beard, mouth and part of his stache were covered with sauce. Darrel looked up from his, holding a piece of chicken while noticing his girlfriend giving him an odd look.
"What? Its good chicken." he said, slightly embarrassed. "Clearly." Blake said bluntly. Awhile later, Darrel let to use the restroom, with Blake following suit. The then left a few minutes later.
Not much later, they finished their meals, paid for them, and then left.
When they arrived, it was only 8:30. "I would like to speak with your girlfriend, if you don't mind." Janet asked. "Yeah sure." Darrel said, and he headed upstairs, his dad headed to his bedroom, leaving Blake and Janet in the living room. Both sat down on the couch.
"Blake, we know that you're are a Faunus and a former member of the White Fang." Janet stated.
Blake had a fearful look on her face.
"Its okay. A few people here are Faunus, and since you had nothing to do with my son's... abilities, I now fully accept you." Janet reassured her.
"Thank you, Mrs. Maximus!" Blake said, ecstatic she was now completely accepted into his family.
Afterwards, she headed om up to her boyfriend's room. She found him seated on the far end in the two person chair.
"Ah, Blake glad you could join me for a movie?" Darrel said.
Blake sat down next to him. "So what movie are we watching?" She asked. "The Princess Bride."
Darrel turned the TV on, inserted the movie, and they watched it; Blake snuggled up to him.
'BEST. BOYFRIEND .EVER!' she thought as she nuzzled him and he let her.
One hour and 30 minutes later, the movie ended at 9:50. "Great movie; very romantic."
"Well, we should get ready for bed. Curfew is at 10:00." Darrel said. Darrel grabbed a pair of dark blue long johns and a Dino covered white t-shirt, while Blake grabbed a pair of her sleepwear from a spare dresser Darrel had set up for her.
Afterwards, Darrel went down to take a shower. While he showered, Blake sat down in the baby's room, keeping a close eye on Catherine, who was sleeping in her crib.
15 minutes later, she heard him left the bathroom and head upstairs; then she entered the bathroom. 15 minutes later, she left the bathroom and went upstairs. She noticed that most of the lights were off, minus the stairway light and the lamp in his room. Quietly, she made her way up the stairs.
And when she got into his bedroom, she was treated to an adorable sight: her boyfriend stretched out on the bed, slightly asleep. 'He's so cute even asleep.' She thought.
Carefully, she climbed into bed with him. She felt him unconsciously wrap his arms around her... or so she thought.
He opened his eyes.
"Goodnight, my love."
"Goodnight, sweetie."
Well, this was long! Took me 3 days to write! Regarding Darrel's house, I took aspects of my house and my grandparents' house.
Until then, R&R, my friends!
