I was being shaken awake. I tried to bat the arms away, but they only shook harder.
"Mom?" I muttered. "I had the strangest dream last night. Eep and Guy somehow time traveled here, and Guy kissed me."
"It wasn't a dream." Eep said. I opened my eyes, and Eep's face was inches away from mine.
"Oog. Waddya want?" I looked over at my clock. Only 5 AM.
"I we wanna learn!" Eep shook even harder.
"We?" I sat up and saw Guy, almost asleep against the doorpost. "It's too early."
"Please?" Eep begged, and I considered. I wasn't likely to get back to sleep if Eep gave up, which I doubted.
"Fine. But if I'm crabby all day, I'm blaming you." I got out of bed.
Two hours later, we stopped.
"Let's take a break." I said. "I'm hungry, and the rest of my family will be up soon."
"OK!" Eep dashed up the stairs. I started to go up, too, but Guy grabbed my arm.
"Kaylene, I'm sorry about what happened last night." Guy said. "I could tell you felt akward, and I'm sorry for that."
"No worries." I'm normally a pretty easygoing person.
"Can you keep a secret?" Guy asked, and I nodded. "I was planning on kissing Eep, but I didn't think she knew how I feel about her. You were the only other person in there, so... the truth is, I love Eep."
"Your secrets safe with me." I said. I'm also very good at keeping secrets.
"No hard feelings?"
"No hard feelings." I said, and smiled.
Sorry I haven't written in a while. I've been very busy.
I was asked if this was an OC and Guy or Eep and Guy love story. I never intenended it to be either, but it looks like it could be and Eep and Guy love story. Thanks for the great question!
And thanks to all my reviewers, and cheche123, who followed me.
