Chapter 8: An unforgettable night- part 1
Sherman arrived to his pent-house as happy as he's been for long minutes, he crossed the elevator doors and keep leaping till he reached the living room really happy yet, what Mr. Peabody noticed at instant' cause he was in the room reading a book.
"Well Sherman, looks like you had a great day at school." Said closing his book.
"Oh, yes it was, Mr. Peabody. Penny and I won the first place at the class expositions."
"Very well, Sherman. I knew that Penny and you will win after being preparing it all those days. "
"Yes. Hmmm… Mr. Peabody? ..."
"Yes, Sherman?"
"Can I go to a party at Hayden's tonight?"
"Of course, Sherman. Who are going? " Asked heading to the kitchen.
"Well…" Started following him "Carl, Mason, almost all the boys and girls of my school and Penny"
"Well then, I don't think there is any problem for you don't go there. I'll take you to Hayden's house at 7:30. Ok?" Said taking the bread bag from a cupboard.
"Hmmm… Well, I told Penny that I'll pick her at her place to go together to the party. I hope that doesn't bother you."
"Of course not, Sherman. Only be careful. Remember what happened the other day. I'll give you some money for you two to take a taxi, ok?" Said spreading mayonnaise on a bread.
"Shure. The party is in a couple of hours, I think that I should go and get ready" Said Sherman.
"That´s fine, Sherman" Said Peabody adding condiments to his sandwich.
Then Sherman went to his room to get ready for the party.
Mind while, in Penny´s room.
"Very well, Penny. You only have four hours to get ready, so, surprise yourself" Said looking to her room's mirror.
While she was in that, Penny's mom, Patty Peterson, entered in the room.
"Honey, what time is your…"
"Mom don't get in. I'm changing my cloth!" she said slamming the door in her face.
"I'm sorry, dear" said a little beat ashamed.
"That's it, you can came in now, mom" Said finishing to put on her red dress.
"Sorry I came in that way, love"
"I'm sorry for slamming the door in your face, mom" She said while brushing her hair.
"Don't wary my girl, I'll just have the nose red for a week" Said rubbing her nose a little "Any way, what time is Hayden's party?"
"In a few hours"
"Fine, I'll take you there at 7:00, ok?"
"Well… I' wanted to ask you if I can go with Sherman Peabody?"
"Sherman Peabody? The red head boy of your class?"
"Yes, him."
"Well, I guess you can. I was told he's good company as well as nice, but wasn't he the boy that you was bothering a week ago?"
"Well, yes, but since we got to know better each other while doing our class project, I realized that he is more… nice and not as loser as I thought."
"Ohhh… I get it!" Said taking sit in a chair at her side "Let me, dear" said taking the comb and brushing Penny's hair
"And… since when do you like Sherman?" Patty said.
"What!?" Said standing from her sit "Mom, Sherman is just my friend and I'll never see him as something more."
"Penny" Said a beat serious.
"What?"
"Look me in the eyes and tell me you don't like Sherman."
Penny stayed silence for a few moments, till she just sigh.
"Yes, I admit it, I think that, I like Sherman" Said a little ashamed.
"Awww… come here honey" Said hugging her "My little girl it's growing up already."
"I think so, mommy."
"You still too young to know what true love is, and have a boyfriend."
"Mom!... I'm not that young."
"You only have seven."
"And two months, remember."
"Shure." Said smiling and braking the hug. "Well, get ready, lady Penny, your prince will come in a few hours." Said leaving the room.
So Penny continued.
MINDWHILE, AT PEABODY'S PENT-HOUSE
Sherman was almost ready, he wore a black trouser, a white shirt with spider web marks and a light navy blue hood jacket.
"Sherman, are you ready?" Peabody shouted from the leaving room.
"Yes Mr. Peabody" Said from his room.
"Well, let me see you"
"I'm going Mr. Peabody."
Sherman came in the leaving room and Peabody behold his son look.
"Well, I expected to see my son Sherman but I think that someone took him and leave this handsome young man!" Said Peabody tickling Sherman.
"Hahaha, Shure Mr. Peabody. Well, I think is time to leave."
"Oh, wait Sherman. Before you leave, just a few things"
Peabody took from behind him an orange and black glass bottle.
"Your cologne?" Said Sherman.
"For special occasions." Said Peabody sprinkling Sherman's neck "And… something else"
Peabody lead Sherman to the parking of the building, what surprised Sherman a lot, because Mr. Peabody never takes him there, cause he always leaves his scooter in front of the building.
"What do you want to show me, Mr. Peabody?" Said Sherman.
"Just a little project of mine, Sherman." Said Mr. Peabody taking a little black and blue remote control and pressing a red digital button.
From in-between of the cars, a yellow and black Chevrolet Corvette Zora ZR1 appeared, apparently, driving by itself, what leave Sherman speechless for the impression.
"WOW! That's great, Mr. Peabody!"
"Yes, I know Sherman. I thought you'll like it"
"And why it's driving by itself?"
"It is directed to its destination by GPS commands and frontal and transversal sensors."
"And why are you showing me this?"
"Do you thought that I would let you go to Hayden´s party by taxi?"
Sherman only could hug his dad more than happy.
"Thank you, Mr. Peabody"
"It's nothing, Sherman."
Then, Mr. Peabody programed the GPS of the car and Sherman got into it.
"Have fun, Sherman" Said Mr. Peabody.
"I will" shouted Sherman from the window of the car while it were leaving the parking to take the street.
Six minutes later, he arrived to Penny's house where he get out of the car and rang the bell.
Ting-tong… the bell rang and Penny's mom opened.
"Hi" Said Sherman.
"Hi. Sherman, right?" Patty said
"The very same"
"Come on in, Penny will come in a minute. You can wait her in the living room."
"Tanks."
Sherman waited for a couple of minutes till Penny went down stairs dressing a red dress, back shoes and the hair loose, what leave Sherman more then impressed.
"Hi, Sherman"
"H-hi, Penny"
"Nice shirt, it remember me Peter Parker"
"What? ... Oh, yea, sure. You know, this will sound strange but…"
"What?!"
"You… remember me Gwen Stacy"
"Yea, I've already knew that" Said laughing as well as Sherman.
"Very well youngsters, I want you here at midnight, Ok?" Said Patty.
"Ok" Said both.
"Very well, have fun." Said Patty going to the kitchen.
"Fine, let's go then before the Green Goblin show up and you know what happen…"
"Very well, let's go!"
They both leaved and get in the car.
"Great!... Is this rally your car?" Penny said from one of the front seats.
"Actually is Mr. Peabody's, he told me that I can use it today."
"Do you rally drive?"
"No, this car dives by GPS wherever I indicate, so "Hayden's house"" Said Sherman typing in the car's touch screen.
So they headed to the party in the Corvette…
