Chapter 77 (Pak Rat)
Spencer and Sasha were hanging around the basement area of the apartment, it was fun to be down there from time to time. They were discussing the whole secret relationship thing, Sasha was still a bit concerned about what might happen if the truth came out, but Spencer didn't want to keep it secret anymore. "I want to tell the world that I love you, Sasha," Spencer said while draping an arm around Sasha's shoulder. They were sitting on what was a very old couch.
"I know, and I want to tell the world about my love for you," Sasha replied while kissing Spencer's cheek. She wanted nothing more than to be with Spencer and have everyone know they were together. If anything, Spencer and Sasha knew how Sam and Freddie must feel about their secret relationship. Spencer still didn't know Sam was Freddie's bride, but he was pretty close to finding out, given all the signs of everything.
"Then why can't we? Why can't we just swallow our blinding fears?" Spencer stood up and struck a dramatic pose. "We could just say, Hey world!" Sasha laughed, which was what Spencer was trying to get her to do. "Look at us, we're in love!" Spencer took another step forward and balled his fists up. "If you try to stop our love, we won't let you!" Sasha was laughing at Spencer's dramatic act, it was one of the many reasons she could say that she loved him. "If you try to tear us apart, I w-" Spencer slipped on something wet and shouted as he fell back and hit his head on some machine. Sasha gasped and quickly rushed over to see if he was okay.
"Spencer! Are you hurt?" Spencer moaned and Sasha gingerly lifted him up and rested his head in her lap. He looked into her eyes and smiled, she had the most beautiful eyes in the world.
"I'm not hurt anymore, an angel has me in her hands…" Sasha smiled at him and leaned down to kiss his forehead. She was glad to see he wasn't hurt much at all. "Damn though, what did I bump into?" Sasha looked over as she and Spencer stood up, they saw what seemed to be a really old Pak Rat machine.
"Oh…my god…" Spencer raised his eyebrow and Sasha circled the machine, eyeing it. It was like a blast from her past, several years ago, she had been a champ at the game. She had used a fake last name so no one would find her, though. "Spencer, do you know what this is?!" Spencer rubbed the back of his head and shrugged.
"Yeah, the thing that just gave the back of my head a huge bump." Sasha chuckled and slowly shook her head.
"No, it's Pak Rat…"
"Oh, that game? I've played a bit of it online…do you think it still works? We could hook it up and try it."
"Nah, I'm done with Pak Rat…" Spencer nodded in understanding, she had told him that part of her life. He actually enjoyed the game, so maybe he'd take it to his apartment and play a bit of it. Sasha looked over and smiled, she could see it in his eyes, he did want to give it a try. "Why don't you take it on up to your apartment and clean it up, it's a fun game. I guess."
"Sure I'll do that right now, do you…" Spencer stopped and Sasha frowned sadly at him, he was going to ask if she wanted to go up with him, but their stupid secret relationship prevented them from being together in front of Carly or anyone else. "Nevermind, I'll just go ahead and take it up…" Sasha walked over and cupped her hand over his cheek, she smiled and gently kissed his lips.
"Hey, it'll be all right. I have to go check up on mom and get some studying done, so I'll see you later."
"I love you Sasha."
"I love you too, Spencer." Spencer watched as Sasha left for the stairs, he sighed and moved the machine into the elevator. He pressed the floor for his apartment and waited as he made it to the apartment. He figured he'd just go ahead and act peppy, it'd get Sasha and the damned secret off of his mind. Unlike Freddie, his relationship really didn't have to be secret. He could easily defend himself and Sasha against people like Tyrone. The elevator door opened and he heard Carly talking on the phone, he smiled and quickly jumped out.
"Carly! Carly! Wait until you see what I got!" Carly chuckled and stood up from the couch as Spencer ran back in the elevator and began pushing out the Pak Rat machine. He turned around and grinned at his little sister.
"What is that?"
"A Pak Rat machine!"
"Pak Rat?"
"Yeah, it's a really old video game from like the last century." Carly chuckled once more and Spencer held his grin. "I played versions of it online, but this is the original real deal, one of those popular video games of all time!"
"Cool, is it going to work?"
"I don't know…" Spencer walked around and looked at the back of the machine. "I have to check out all the wiring and circuit board and stuff.
"But shouldn't you be working on your sculpture?" That was right, Spencer had to make a sculpture that some doctor requested for his wife. He figured he had time, he actually wanted to get started on the game. It was something that Sasha had enjoyed at one point of time in her life, and that was the closest thing to Sasha that he was going to get while being around Carly and the others. Even if it was just symbolic.
"I've got time, the doctor isn't coming to pick that up until Sunday. Didn't you look him up online?"
"Yeah, his brother owns seven art galleries, so make him happy!"
"No worries, I'm going to build him the best sculpture in the history of mixed breed dog sculptures." Spencer opened the back of the machine and nearly shuddered when he spotted a dead raccoon. "This thing must have been out there for years, because I don't think this was supposed to be in there." He pulled out the raccoon and Carly winced with disgust. "Hold it."
"No!" Spencer chuckled and moved to throw the dead animal somewhere else, he definitely would have to clean the thing up. When he did, it would hopefully be as good as new.
-NEW SCENE
Carly and Sam made it to Sam's "house" so to speak, Lisa was ready for her, but the only problem was that Sasha was still there. She figured she may as well move to another room, since she didn't really want Carly to see her there. She could always hide away in the basement or her own bedroom that no one ever went into.
"Carly, how are you?" Lisa asked as Carly and Sam entered the house. Carly smiled at her and Sam leaned against a wall.
"Hey mom, sorry it took so long to get here to clean my room…but Spencer was supposed to drive us, yet he couldn't." Lisa raised her eyebrow and Sasha stopped walking toward her room, she stood in the hallway and pressed her back against the wall, listening in. Lisa actually knew very well that Spencer and Sasha were together, she was probably the only person in the world that knew their secret, except for Spencer's friend Socko and one of Sasha's closest friends.
"What was wrong with Spencer?"
"Oh, he's just addicted to that new game of his." Sasha furrowed her brow and let out a small sigh, of course he'd get addicted to it. She smiled lightly and shook her head, she would have to figure out how to get him away from that game. "He plays it day and night, it seems. It's really annoying." Sam flopped onto the couch and Carly stepped behind her, needing to remind her that she needed to clean her room.
"Sam, come on, we came here to clean your room up!" Carly said with a quick voice. Sasha winced and quickly ran to the room that they used as Sam's room, it was pretty clean. Sam must have told Carly that Lisa wanted her to clean the room. Sasha decided to make it a bit messy, so that Carly wouldn't see a blatant lie. While messing the room up a bit, she got to thinking. Why was she so concerned about this relationship being a secret? She probably tired of it as much as Spencer did. She frowned and wiped her brow as she exited the room and entered hers. What was she going to do? She was just so scared to reveal it, but could it be so easy? It wasn't like Tyrone would do to them what he would do to Sam and Freddie, was it?
"Okay, let's get started on the room," Sam said with a slight moan as she and Carly entered her room. Her eyebrows rose when she saw that there was actually a mess in it, she chuckled and figured Sasha may have been involved in that. Which meant Sasha was still in the house, that was a bad thing.
"Wow Sam, you really do know how to make a mess of things." Sam chuckled and crossed her arms over.
"Yeah that I do..." Sam was tricking Freddie with bad luck since he didn't forward some stupid chain letter, but it seemed he figured it out. Emily wasn't too thrilled when Sam wanted to turn a pair of pants pink, but some convincing and her more humorous side of things got her to not really mind at all. Freddie decided that she should keep the pranks going, just for the hell of it, and that they would end it with a major one. They even discussed the possibility of using a fake, but working laptop to make it look like even more bad luck was happening. It was all just lighthearted fun for them.
I hope you enjoyed that chapter!
