Calvin and Susie

By Samhoku

I do NOT own Calvin and Hobbes. Feel free to post idea's in the reviews, I might use them. I will now be using half my chapter for Calv and Susie, the other half is for Hobbes and Ruth.

Chapter

Calvin woke up the next morning to smell burning and Susie yelling at Uncle Max. Calvin tried not to laugh as he listened in to the yelling match.

"I am a better cook then you! Did you never go to college? Where you never home alone?" Susie yelled as she opened windows.

Uncle Max defended himself valiantly, "I tried! No one can say I didn't try!" Then he yelled at the fire alarm, "Shut up!"

Susie opened the back door to let more smoke out, "Yeah, you tried and almost burned the house down! I have some advice for you, stick to TV dinners. I will cook Breakfast for you two and Dinner. You are on your own for lunch."

Calvin walked out and looked from Susie to Uncle Max was an amused expression, "Are you two making friends?"

Uncle Max huffed and threw the charred food away, "The fire alarm hates me."

Calvin reached up, unplugging the fire alarm. Calvin had gotten his height from his dads side of the family. His father was the shortest one in the whole family. Calvin gave his uncle a grin, "The fire alarm problem is fixed. Now for the cooking problem."

Uncle Max laughed dryly, "Har de har har." Uncle Max handed Calvin a piece of paper, "The Cancer place called. They apparently found a different type of cancer behind your knee. They are going to give you the Chemo pills. I am supposed to take you to go get them today."

Susie made them sausages and then had Calvin make eggs, "Now that I know your uncle can't cook I will come early tomorrow. I need to go to work today." Susie kissed Calvin on the cheek then left, going out to her car.

Uncle Max grinned michiviously, "You love her."

Calvin ignored his uncle and finished cooking the eggs, "Here you go uncle."

Uncle Max ate his food, "Thank you Calvin."

Calvin gave his uncle a smile then sat down, eating the food on his own plate.

"Where does she work?" Uncle Max asked curiously.

Calvin looked at his Uncle, "Susie? Um...She helps fix cars and she is studying to take a SAT test."

Uncle Max nodded once then said, "Your moms hospital called as well. She is getting better. Apparently after you visited yesterday she started getting better almost right away. She is being moved out of the ICU tomorrow."

Calvin smiled again, "Thats great! I can't wait until she is better."

Susie walked into the auto shop and poked Mo with her foot, "Hey, I am here to work."

Mo growled from under the car, "Then get to it, Barbie."

Susie aimed a kick at his foot then walked into the part of the shop where she would talk to people about their cars.

Susie walked into the office and took a piece of paper from her boss and set of keys. Then she drove the car into the garage and looked at what was wrong with it. Susie grabbed a couple of tools and set to work.

Mo said from under his car, "How is Calvin and Mr. Max doing?"

Susie giggled, "Uncle Max set off the fire alarm. I made them breakfast, Calvin finished it."

Mo tried not to laugh, "That must have been entertaining. Sorry I missed it." He hit his head on the underbelly of the car, "Ouch. I had to convince the boss not to fire you. I told him Calvin was sick and that you where probably just checking on him."

Susie sighed, "He acts like I am his wife or something. I don't give a dang what he thinks, if he wants to fire me then so be it. I am sure I can find another job somewhere."

Mo finished the car he was doing and wiped his hands on a towel, "I would rather you were not fired. Not many people here like me very much." Mo thought for a few minutes, "And I can't wait until Calvin comes back. He gives them a run for their money."

Susie smiled from under the car, "We are a weird group. You bullied Calvin, Calvin annoyed me, and I avoided both of you."

Mo looked amused and he dropped the greasy towel on Susie, "Yeah, whatever Barbie."

Susie kicked him in the shins from under the car and came out, "Jerk."

Hobbes coughed for the third time that morning, "Ugh, Ruth! Help me! I need the kiss of Life!"

"You are about to receive the Kiss of Death." Ruth said as she came out of the closet, "Its been almost an hour sense Uncle Max burned the food. You can stop pretending to die now."

Hobbes huffed, walked on all fours over to Ruth and rubbed his head against hers, "Alright, but I won't be happy about it."

Ruth purred then galloped down the stairs, "Beat you to Calvin!"

Hobbes ran on the banister and beat Ruth downstairs, tackling her then they both turned into stuffed animals as they fell out into the opened.
