Chapter 21
Surprised Visit
Virginia yawned. Her hair flowed from her head. It was quite messy, a dark colour. She stretched out her sore limbs. Sleeping in an awkward position for the whole night, can do serious damage to her limbs. She grabbed a long black top, and a pair of grey leggings. On her feet she had her white fluffy bunny slippers. She skipped down the stairs merrily. Her mother was sipping a hot cup of Joe. Her father was reading the Newspaper. "Grab a bowl of cereal, you'll be late for school." grumbled her father. "Thanks for the nice greeting." she rolled her eyes. "Please get to school, before your grandmother gets here. She's quite a chatterbox." said her mother. Virginia quickly ate her cereal. A loud was heard. "It's only me." called Virginia's grandmother. Virginia hurriedly ran to the back door. Her parents' groans were heard, when the old lady began to tell them about her trip to India. Virginia had luckily placed her dark grey converse shoes in her school bag. She slipped off the slippers and replaced them with the trendy shoes.
Loud barks were heard from everywhere. A few dogs had been accidentally released from the Pound. "Please don't be alarmed. They are mostly friendly." said the News reporter on the Radio. "Now for the weather, with Colin Heyburn." he said. The bus driver nearly made the bus collide with a bulldog. It was running across the road, from a angry Police Officer. "Dumb Pooch." the bus driver said. He combed his fingers through his dark greasy hair. "It's their own faults. The dogs only want some freedom." said a girl, with pink highlights in her hair. She was wearing rainbow coloured clothes, and Oozy Osborne styled sunglasses. Her friend, who wore a Peace sign around his neck nod in agreement. "I really miss the kids." whispered Rachel. Kuki almost cried again. "I know how you feel." she said. Abby shook her head, while smiling. "Guys it's not like they are gone forever, we will meet them again real soon." Abby replied, while feeling a little be sad. After defeating Lizzie, and her future self and husband, the children were forced to go back home. If only they could stay in contact. "Let's talk about something else." suggested Nigel. He was currently checking his communicator. He was sure there was going to be another mission.. Soon. "Will ya put that thing down! It's getting really annoying." demanded Wally. Nigel took a deep breath, before placing it in his pocket. Fanny grumbled underneath her breath. Patton smirked. "What, and you can do better.. Sure." he said. Fanny's cheeks turned red. "I sure can. Even better than a STOOPID BOY!" she shouted. They had started the argument from earlier yet again. Virginia entered on the bus. Her stop was the very last one. She took a seat near Fanny. "Hey." she smiled at the group. They all waved back. "So, what time is the KND dance tomorrow night?" asked Hoagie, as he was always forgetful. "It starts at quarter past seven." replied Rachel. The bus slowed down and everyone got off. Virginia quickly hurried towards her locker, Bartie will be waiting. The group exited off the bus, and began chatting near the gates.
"Is everyone excited about the dance?" asked Numbuh 3, with glee. "Yeah girl. Numbuh 5 can't wait." replied Numbuh 5. The two girls went a head of the boys, while discussing about their dresses. "So, Numbuh 1 who are ya asking to the dance?" asked Numbuh 4. "I don't know yet." replied Numbuh 1.
"Is it a certain supreme leader, by any chance." said Numbuh 2, while he and Wally snickered. "Maybe, and anyway why do you care?" replied Numbuh 1, while lowering his sunglasses to meet with Wally's emeralds. "Because, just in case we go after the same girl." he replied. "I don't think, I'll be asking Kuki to the dance." replied Nigel.
"I didn't say Kuki." replied Wally. "I know, you don't have to." replied Nigel, while Hoagie chuckled. "Right, since the girls are far ahead we can be honest. Deal?" said Hoagie, while putting his hand out. "Deal." said both Wally and Nigel, while putting their hands on top of Hoagie's. "Ok, so tell us the truth." said Hoagie, while referring to Nigel. (They all took their hands away) Nigel looks left to right, while making sure no one could hear. "Ok, I want to ask Rachel to the dance, but I don't know if she wants to go with me." he said, while blushing. "Oh ok. Now your turn Wally." said Hoagie. "Well, every time I ask Kuki to the dance, fly boy keeps interrupting." replied Wally, while thinking of ways to kill that guy. "I'll sort both of them out." replied Hoagie, while he walked in front of them.
"Hold up!" shouted Wally. They both grab Hoagie by his collar, while yanking him back.
"What?" asked Hoagie, while rubbing his sore neck.
"We told you, who we are asking to the dance…" began Nigel, when Wally finished his sentence.
"Now you spill!" ordered Wally.
"Ok, ok. I'm thinking of asking Abby." replied Hoagie, while looking at his feet. Both Wally and Nigel grinned, while looking at each other.
"We knew it!" shouted Nigel and Wally in unison.
"Shh. The girls might…." began Hoagie, when Kuki came out of nowhere.
"Hey guys. Didn't you hear the bell? It just rang like a minute ago." replied Kuki, while grabbing Wally's hand.
"Where ya taking me?" asked Wally, while being pulled into the school.
"We have first and second together." smiled Kuki. Wally said goodbye to the rest of them, while the pair went to their class.
"Did he tell you, that he's asking Kuki to the dance?" asked Abby, while walking into the school with the two boys. Both Hoagie and Nigel nodded their heads.
"Well Numbuh 5 advises him to make his move quick. Otherwise Ace, will get her." she said, while she left to go to her class. Both of the boys said bye, and left to go to their class.
Virginia and Bartie began to walk to their first class, Science. "So, are you going to the dance tomorrow?" Virginia asked sweetly. "I don't think so." he replied softly. "Why, and if you were we could go together?" she asked. He gulped nervously. "C'mon, we'll be late." he replied quickly. He walked fast into the class. The confused girl stared at her friend. What was up with him, and why was he not going.. She took her seat beside the boy from the bus, who was wearing the Peace sign necklace. He smiled at her. She was pretty sure he was not a KND operative, but she was going to make friends with him either way. "Hey, Jaco." smiled Virginia. She placed her bag on the table. The boy only looked at her strangely. "When do you usually say hey to me?" he asked curiously. She shrugged her shoulders. "I just wanted to be friends." she said quietly. He rolled his eyes. "I don't be friends to tree-cutters. I'm nice to everyone, but I'm only friends with people who understand the environment." he replied. She gaped at him. When has he ever been like this.. He must be in a bad mood. Someone probably got caught binning a recyclable product. The rest of the lesson was quiet and awkward. As bell rang, Virginia quickly went towards Bartie. "What's up?" she asked. He quickly gathered his books. "I don't want to ask you to the dance." he said softly. She looked hurt, and disappointed. H is eyes turned a sad shade of blue. "No, it's not what it sounds-.." began Bartie. "I know exactly what it sounds like." she said, with hurt in her eyes. A tear rolled down her eyes. "You could've just said no." she whispered. Virginia hurried to her next class. Bartie tried to catch her, but she was lost in the sea of students in the corridors.
"I can't believe him!" cried Virginia. It was next day, and she was forced to stay in her house. She couldn't humiliate herself for turning up dateless. She punched her pillow. "Why Bartie! Why break my heart!" she screamed. Her parents were both out with her grandmother. She insisted on taking them out, since they're letting her stay for the week. A loud knock was heard from down stairs. She quickly ran to the door. She opened it slowly. Bartie stood in front of her. "What do you want1" she shouted. Her eyes were now red. "I've came to say sorry. And that you got it all wrong." he said. He was wearing a tux, with a blue bow-tie. He still wore his white baseball cap. "Are you actually going to the dance.. So you clearly didn't want to go with me." she sniffed angrily. "No, I'm not going to the dance at all. I was going to ask you out on the date.. But since you went in a mood with me, I've come to say sorry." he said quickly. He blushed, as he handed her a chocolate heart on a stick. "Sorry.. And do you really mean it?" she asked. He nodded his head. She smiled. "Is the offer still standing?" she asked, while smirking. His eyes brightened up. "Of course." he replied. She sprinted upstairs, and grabbed a black dress since she was dressed in shorts, and a t-shirt. She then came back down, wrote a note for her parents and left with her love. Bartie Stork.
"Sorry.. But sometimes I overreact." she said softly. She held onto his arm. "And I'm not really good at explaining things." he replied sweetly. She hugged into his hug, and the twelve year olds walked towards a restaurant near the beach. The sky was lit by the bright stars, that sat next to the moon. The moon had many colours escaping outwards. A certain KND dance was being held there, on a top-secret-kid-filled Moon Base. "Who needs a dance, when you have a date." laughed Bartie. Virginia giggled, as the waiter showed them their table.
So tired, and for once I have complicated this chapter before 12 o'clock in morning! Record for me! Usually I would finish this by 1 or 2! Anyway, I might upload another chapter tomorrow, or start another tonight since I've got enough time. Goodnight, and sweet dreams everyone.
