Bess pulled another pair of underwear out of Silent Bob's hair before pulling him out of the shop. That plan was a complete failure. What now?
"Man, what the fuck did you do?" Jay asked. "That plan was damn near fool-proof!"
The blonde shook his head, thinking Silent Bob was to blame. Bess frowned, waving Jay off. Silent Bob did nothing wrong. He was clearly on point and would've reached LaFours if it wasn't for that toy. Bess led the mute man away from the shop, stopping at a bench, knowing they needed to regroup.
Silent Bob took a seat with the silent girl, seeing first hand just how much she cared for him. Here Bess was, making sure he wasn't too seriously hurt. Her fingers gently ran through his hair, searching for any lumps on his head. Not even Jay would do something like this. His friend would just tell him to walk it off and get over it.
Silent Bob took Bess' hand and pressed his lips to it in a kiss, thanking her for her concern. The two mutes sat together, looking into each other's eyes.
"Dude, just kiss already!" Jay said.
He could see the tension between Bess and Silent Bob. Getting annoyed, he shoved his larger friend into the girl, their bodies crashing into each other, their lips locked in a kiss. The two mutes looked at each other with wide eyes, frozen in time before quickly pulling away. Both blushed furiously.
"Now, let's get back to work", Jay said satisfied.
Bess kept her eyes shut, her head down, body trembling. That was her very first kiss with anyone, and for Jay to force it on her... Well, she did like it, but it was still so embarrassing.
Silent Bob was annoyed that Jay ruined the whole mood, but either way, the kiss was nice. He looked at Bess, smiling as he saw how embarrassed she seemed. It was cute. Silent Bob scooted closer to her, giving her a quick kiss on the cheek.
A gasp could be heard from Bess' lips. Her eyes widened as she turned to Silent Bob who gave a sheepish shrug. He did like her.
"Dude, save it for the bedroom", Jay scoffed shaking his head. "We got work to do."
Knowing he was right, Bess turned back to Silent Bob, gently laying a hand on his round, hairy cheek. She gave him a smile before following Jay back to their spot on the floor.
"Alright, Tubby was the one that fucked up, so he'll be flying solo this time", the blonde shook his head.
Silent Bob pulled a roll of paper from his coat, ready to start planning again. Hopefully, no little bastard would bug them and ruin everything. Attacking LaFours head on didn't work, maybe avoiding him altogether would be the better option. As Jay spurted ideas, Bess drew them, making sure the instructions were clear.
"Alright, Lunchbox", Jay sighed looking over the blueprints. "Let's try this again."
This plan looked worse than the first! The first figure showed Silent Bob with a rope tied around his waist.
"We tie you to the roof, and you jump off and sail like a spitfire passing fight over the arch nemesis, LaFours."
Bess looked at Silent Bob, worried for his sake. These plans were getting crazier and crazier. Jay was doing less and less in these plans.
"You then swing up to the stage and knock out the pin", Jay continued pointing to the blueprints. "When that's gone, the stage is trashed and we go smoke a bowl. You got it? Now, get your fat ass up there! And dude, don't forget your helmet. Snoogans."
Silent Bob looked over the blueprints, nodding understanding. This was going to be a much epic plan. He reached into his coat, pulling out a Batman shaped helmet with goggles, ready to fly into action.
Silent Bob was about to go up to the rafters of the mall when a hand grabbed onto his arm. Bess looked at him with eyes full of tears and worry. This was extremely dangerous, and she didn't want him getting hurt. The mute man was at a loss. Here she was, the only person to show genuine care for him. Wanting to put her at ease, Silent Bob touched her cheek, gently wiping away her tears with his thumb. He leaned in, kissing her lips softly.
Bess was left stunned as he turned, getting into place to act out the plan.
