Whoa! That was quick, huh? Yeah, I had this one started a while back Whoo! All right, so this one has a kind of weird relationship thing happen. You'll know it when you read it. I'm not entirely sure how it happened, it just did. It seemed right. You could tell me what you think about it? Cool. Cool cool cool. OK, here we go!
“Hey class! Good afternoon,” Miss Allberry greeted with a
strangely manic grin. “As you all know, Valentine’s Day is coming up fast so I
have an assignment for you all!” The class stared at her expectantly as she
waited for it her news to sink in for some reason, as if it might be a hard
concept to grasp. Eventually she went on, “Everyone is going to get a partner,
and then you and your partner will act out a romantic scene! Because romantic
scenes are a part of acting. So…You know. You’re going to do them!” Blue raised
her eyebrows up and down at Malik, signifying her desire to partner with him.
Miss Allberry stopped her eyebrows mid-range by declaring, “And I pick the
partners!”
“Crazypants, not to, uh, dispute you or anything, but…How
about no?” Teddy suggested. One of Miss Allberry’s eyes twitched. Teddy decided
to sit quietly and try to turn invisible.
“The choice will be at random,” Miss Allberry stated, “I
will draw sticks. No complaining if straighties get paired with same sexies. It
happens. Deal with it. This is acting! OK, let’s begin!” Producing a cup with
popsicle sticks from inside a drawer, the teacher began the drawing, “OK, first
we have…Green! To be paired with Green, we have…Hispan…! Aw, lame…Well, can’t
dispute the powers of the cup. Hispanesbian and Green you’re paired together.
Please take the top scene on my stack of scenes.” The pair shot each other
grins and held hands as they walked up to the front and grabbed the papers.
“Next up we have…Jennay! All right, let’s see who Jennay is paired up
with…Mindfreak! Wow that’s going to be kind of weird. Just what I was hoping
for! I mean what? Next packet in the stack please!” Jenny and Pablo gave each
other weary glances as they walked to the front of the room to pick up their
assignments. Pablo shot puppy eyes at Teddy as a thought struck the blond. He
raised his hand, and spoke despite the death glare Miss Allberry shot him.
“Two things,” he said, calmly ignoring Miss Allberry’s clear
desire to murder him, “Number one: there are thirteen of us. Number two: are
the Twingers still on just one stick?”
Miss Allberry paused in a moment of slight panic, opened her
mouth, shut it, searched for and pulled a popsicle stick out of the cup, then
replaced it with two that she quickly scribbled on. “I would have left it but
incest is soooo weird. Also I guess one of you will just have to double up,
then! I nominate Teddy because he pointed it out!”
“Not fair!” Teddy protested.
“Don’t care,” Miss Allberry replied, then congratulated
herself on her rhyme. “Let’s move on! Next is Condy with…Jasmine! Oh, well…I
feel like that’ll be…Well, just pick up your scenes. Next we have…Oh look who
it is, it’s Jack the points-out-my-mistakes-all-the-time! Who will he be paired
with? Let’s see now…Flicka! And…Uh…Little ginger? A Twinger…That’s kind of
weird…Anyway, the answer is Evan Twinger! Cause see I wrote Twinger like
Tvinger instead for the V twin.” Gerda moved to the front of the class in her
very elegant way, followed by Teddy, who took two packets for himself. Evan sat
with wide eyes in his seat next to his brother, so Teddy grabbed his packet for
him and brought it over.
He spoke softly to Evan as Miss Allberry assigned Austin and
Ewan to a group, made a disgusted noise, and switched the group to Austin and
Kip. “It won’t be that bad,” he insisted, “I mean, I’m not that gross. I
thought you…liked…me…”
“I…,” Evan mumbled, looking over the script and searching
for the words to describe what he was feeling. Before he found them he gasped,
“Wait do we have to kiss?”
“Er…Let me ask, yeah?” Teddy replied, not sure why exactly
Evan had gone semi-catatonic. Miss Allberry finished the assigning by pairing
Ewan and Blue, who both shrugged and accepted the pairing. The teacher went to
speak, but Teddy’s raised hand stopped her.
“What this time, Jack?” she asked.
“Do we have to follow the script exactly?” he asked, and she
raised her eyebrows at him in question. “Like, if in the script it says,” Teddy
paused and looked down at the script, reading it aloud, “’Cassie and Dean stare
longing into each other’s eyes, locked in a deeply romantic stare. Suddenly,
Dean leans down and kisses Cassie, who melts into the kiss and pours all the
passion of five years of pining into it.’ Does that mean we really have to
kiss?”
“Of course Jack,” Miss Allberry replied. “Follow the script
exactly. You guys got the best one, too…None of the rest require quite so much
believability. Which I will be grading! OK guys. Get to work then and I’m not
answering any more of your questions, Jack! Present your scripts a week from
today. That means next Tuesday!”
Teddy and Gerda discussed their script for the rest of the
class, hoping Evan would have some time to sort through whatever emotions he
was feeling. Blue and Ewan excitedly planned for costumes and noted that they,
unlike their twins (cause Blue and Teddy are still brain twins, remember) would
not have to kiss. Once the class ended, Evan bolted from the room, his twin
following him very closely and speaking to him in hard to follow references.
“That was kind of weird,” Malik declared, as he and Blue
looked at each other, then at Teddy.
“I, uh…I should be less bothered by this, right?” Teddy
mumbled, looking utterly disheartened.
“Maybe he thinks it’ll be too much awesome!” Blue suggested
as the trio walked back to the dorms together.
“I was kind of hoping for a girl…So Pablo wouldn’t get
jealous,” Teddy admitted. “But, I mean…Evan is…Well, with Gerda it’s fine, because
she’s fine with it, but…” The genius sighed and sped up his walk, and Blue and
Malik glanced at each other tensely.
“No awkwardness, yeah?” Malik asked, and Blue nodded.
“If we’re going to be famous actors, we’ll have to get used
to it, right? And Twinger and I don’t even have to kiss,” Blue said with
delight. Then she narrowed her eyes, “You don’t have to kiss Radish, right?”
“Uh…,” Malik stuttered, “well, we could…I’m sorry Blue it
won’t mean anything, you have to understand!” Blue glared at Malik and stormed
off as her boyfriend called, “This is Miss Allberry’s fault! Don’t take it out
on me!”
Blue walked into her room, surprised to see Teddy sitting
across from Kendall mumbling something about secret insecurity. Jumping down on
to the bed, she laid her head on Teddy’s lap. “Why is Miss Allberry doing
this?” she asked, and Teddy scowled and wrinkled his nose. He covered it when
he realized she was underneath him and didn’t want her to be looking up his
nose, so he spoke in a strange voice.
“Well, she hates love. Always has,” he insisted, “so
Valentine’s Day is like…is like, uh…Some kind of…Bad…I’m sorry, I’m having
trouble braining—uh—thinking right now. Am I ugly or smelly or unappealing in
some way?”
“No!” Blue shouted, then, to prove her point, leaned up and
attempted to plant a kiss on Teddy’s mouth. Her friend reacted in fright and
jerked his head backward, hitting it against a bar above his head.
“Ow!” he whined, rolling onto the floor, effectively
knocking Blue onto the floor with him.
“Ow!” Blue parroted as she hit the ground with a thud. The
only thing that stopped the pair from whining and rolling around on the floor
as Kendall watched them was the sound of people walking into the room. Teddy
and Blue collected themselves and looked up at Malik and Ewan with interest.
“So, Teddy,” Ewan said, trying to sound casual, “so the
thing is, you know Evan and I have never dated anyone, yeah?” Teddy nodded as
he kept rubbing his head. To his right, Blue rubbed her hip where she’d landed
on the floor. “Evan has—well both of us really—never kissed anyone before. So
he’s kind of understandably nervous, right? I mean you can talk to him…He says
that’s OK. So, I mean, yeah, you want to do that?”
“In a minute,” Teddy dismissed, then addressed Malik, “Malik,
are you here to convince Blue she shouldn’t be mad at you?” His best friend
nodded, so Teddy went on, “I thought of a perfect sit-commy solution to all our
problems!” he announced. Despite his announcement, Teddy stood still and didn’t
elaborate. After a few awkward minutes waiting, it was Kendall who broke the
silence.
“What is it?” she asked, and Teddy laughed awkwardly.
“Oh sorry, I just thought we would…Cut to that scene…Uh
sorry, anyway, the plan is to put our heads together and find a date for Miss
Allberry! Then her bitterness won’t overshadow the holiday of emotions I wish
I…The holiday of love!” He declared, well aware everyone was focused on the
part of his sentence he’d trailed off at. As a distraction, he shooed Malik,
Blue, and Ewan out of the room to go report the plan to everyone else who might
be interested in helping them. “My mind to mouth filter is really letting me
down right now,” he mumbled to Kendall, who nodded in sympathy.
“No sleep last night, right?” she asked in her creepiest
voice to date.
“Well, I would ask how you know that but I’m just not going
to,” Teddy sighed, “thanks for your creepiness. You make the world a more aware
of everything they do place.”
“That didn’t make sense,” Kendall informed him, as Teddy
turned to leave the room.
“Your face doesn’t make any…Leave me alone, stuff is hard
and…stuff,” Teddy trailed off before scampering out of the room. “That’s not
what she said!” he shouted back to Kendall, who was snickering to herself.
Blue, Malik, and Ewan were apparently more convincing than
Teddy expected. Or maybe everyone just wanted to avoid their homework. Gerda,
Hakan (still constantly mumbling bitter words about Kendrick), Kip, Rashida,
and Evan rounded out the group. Admittedly, Evan had mostly agreed to help
because he wanted to talk to Teddy. The ringleader in the operation then
divided up tasks, and when everyone had a job sent them on their way. Malik
pulled Blue away when she kept lingering around while Evan clearly wanted to
speak with Teddy privately.
Finally, after Blue wailed that Malik trying to keep her
apart from Teddy was just like “Smelly Kid,” someone she claimed stole one of
her toys when she was in elementary school, Evan and Teddy were alone. Evan
laughed and joked, “So you’re a toy to her then?”
“It would explain a lot,” Teddy replied with an appreciative
smile. Awkward silence fell over them, which Teddy surely would have broken
sooner if he wasn’t totally exhausted from not sleeping for totally normal
reasons. The ginger sitting across from him in the lounge finally couldn’t
handle it any longer.
“I mean kissing is so weird anyway it’s like why do we shove
our mouths up into each other? Like here, here’s where I eat my food, I’m going
to connect it with where you eat yours and maybe those things we have with
taste buds will come into play and we’ll, like French…Which is really weird
though, right, because, like, because, what? French people invented it? I bet
they have bad breath and—!” Teddy finally took pity on the older twin and cut
him off.
“Until you kiss someone it seems pretty weird yeah. I think
it’s because lips are one of the most sensitive areas of our bodies apart from,
you know…And kissing feels good…And there’s a pheromone exchange to see if
you’re suitable partners…So that’s kind of…that…Anyway, I know I’m doing this
whole finding a date for Miss Allberry thing, but…The reality is, we’ll
probably still have to do the assignment. She does have a point. This kind of thing
is a part of acting.”
“Yeah, I…I guess,” Evan mumbled.
“However,” Teddy interjected, grabbing one of Evan’s hands
and looking into his very blue eyes, “I don’t want to do anything that’ll be
uncomfortable for you. We can just explain that you should be put with a girl.
You could go with Gerda and I could just fail, you know?”
“No!” Evan shouted, and Teddy raised his eyebrows, “That
would…that would be so much worse, I…I’d prefer…” He trailed off; staring at
where Teddy still held his hand and trying to ignore the increasing flush of
his face. When Teddy realized the effect he was having, he pulled his hands
back and smiled supportively.
“As long as Pablo doesn’t freak out, I think we can handle
this,” he promised. Evan nodded, though nothing was really solved, which Teddy
realized as Evan turned to leave. “Listen, if it’s that bad, we can stage kiss
or something. There are ways to do that. I assume.” (Upon asking, stage kissing
was “No! I want some man on man action! It’s happening, man, better get used to
it.”) Evan nodded, but was apparently too embarrassed to stay near him any
longer as he ran off.
Pablo was not amused by the situation. Though Teddy managed
to convince him acting was acting, Pablo admitted he wished the person Teddy
was partnered with was “someone who doesn’t obviously have a man crush on you.”
Despite his reservations, Pablo gave his blessing, prompting Blue to shout out
that she was OK with Malik being paired with Rashida too, as if it was a
competition. With that settled, they got to work on learning their lines and
what they figured was secretly a good will mission meant mainly to keep their
grades high, not alter their assignment at all.
The next day, Teddy and Blue decided to seek the counsel of
an expert on all things Miss Allberry. Their former teacher greeted both of
them with eager grins when they walked through his door, “I feel like I haven’t
seen you in forever, Blue!”
“IT HAS BEEN LITERALLY FOREVER!” Blue shrieked, and Hammy
and Teddy both twitched their heads away from the loud noise.
Hammy decided to just move on, “No tall, dark, and handsome
today?”
“Nah, Malik’s busy with some…Uh, something,” Teddy mumbled.
Blue scowled at him and elaborated, “He’s practicing a dance
for a class. Hee. He’s not a very good dancer.”
“Right,” Teddy mumbled, “anyway, we came to talk about
Crazypants.”
Hammy raised an eyebrow at his young friend before
responding, “Well they’d probably be bad. I saw a cartoon with some once…?”
“No, our teacher, she…Uh, Miss…,” Teddy rubbed the back of his
neck, and Blue made an overly dramatic shocked face at him.
“Miss Allberry!” she filled in and Hammy nodded. Blue
figured she should just explain the situation to Hammy, since Teddy’s brain had
apparently suffered a stupidening (a real thing, Blue thought, that she didn’t
make up). After she summed up the situation, Hammy offered his thoughts.
“Yeah, I can try to find some people to set her up with.
I’ve tried before, but she always manages to find some excuse to not be able to
go on a blind date. I’ll get Reg to help too, it sounds like a good idea.
Frankly, she’s kind of insufferable around Valentine’s Day,” Hammy replied,
shaking his head as he thought of Valentine’s Days of the past. “I didn’t know
candy hearts could spell something so mean…,” he trailed off, shaking his head
to rid his mind of the thought.
It was on that Saturday afternoon that Blue, Teddy, Malik,
and Hammy gathered to evaluate the twenty or so candidates the group had
somehow assembled. Reg and Pablo had been assigned to street duty i.e.
screening for any randomly walking men who looked acceptable for Miss Allberry.
Kakahi had insisted she be part of the security team, so she ended up being the
whole team. The strange brunette called the first man into the room. A nervous
blond man walked into the room. Everyone stared. He coughed and shuffled back
out.
Silence settled over the group, until Blue finally asked,
“You have a cloning machine and you didn’t share?” Hammy shook his head,
running out of the room without saying anything and chasing after the young
man.
Malik and Blue looked to Teddy to explain, and he blinked it
confusion before mumbling, “Oh, yeah, that was clearly a brother or something.
He’s got younger brothers, right? I guess that’s one of them…Hell of an
entrance…Seemed like an accident…Hope him having an actual brother around
doesn’t change our relationship…God, my filter is just gone, huh?”
Kakahi led the next candidate into the room as Teddy coughed
awkwardly, and they went on despite Teddy’s brain brokenness and the absence of
the person who knew Miss Allberry best. They interviewed the seventeen (wow!)
men thoroughly, with such question as “What do you think of the apocalypse?”
and “If you had a pop culture related nickname, what would it be?” and “Land
fish or kitten of the sea?” At the end of the day, they narrowed it down to
five people. Of the eighteen that showed up, they deemed ten to be just looking
for a desperate woman on Valentine’s Day. Of the other three, one was
apparently Hammy’s brother, one was a psychologist and that just didn’t seem
right, and the last was nearly eighty. They weren’t sure where to go from
there. Eventually Blue suggested they all ask Miss Allberry out and see which
one she picked. When Malik thought this was a bad idea he looked to Teddy to
explain why.
“Well, because…sit-coms…,” Teddy mumbled in response, then
got frustrated with himself and hit his head against the judging table they all
sat at. Malik and Blue decided to let him be, and left him by himself after
informing the five candidates of how best to woo Miss Allberry. The couple went
off to learn their lines then, each reading for the opposite’s partners because
they could. Kakahi tapped Teddy on the shoulder eventually and told him he
should probably leave because “the jumpers” were coming. For the life of him,
Teddy couldn’t figure out what “the jumpers” meant, but he went along with
Kakahi anyway.
Pablo was waiting for him when he got back to his room. If
there was anyone Alec liked less than Teddy it was Pablo, due mostly to his
singing and dancing and the general happiness he exuded. Teddy’s roommate shot
Teddy the dirtiest look he had ever seen when he arrived back at his room to
see Pablo singing into one of Teddy’s pens. Kakahi, who had insisted on
escorting him back to his room in case he ran into trouble, asked if Alec was
“going to be a problem.” Insisting she could “take care of it,” the genius
violinist stepped toward the Brit.
“It’s fine, Kahi,” Teddy dismissed, but Kakahi frowned at
him and gave Alec the symbol for “I’m watching you,” just in case before she
left. “What’s up?” Teddy asked Pablo, flopping face first onto his bed as Pablo
set down his pen.
“I decided I don’t like the idea of you kissing that Twinger
kid,” he stated. Teddy sighed and rolled over, preparing for a serious
conversation with his boyfriend instead of the nap he was hoping for. He
ushered Pablo to another room so they could get some privacy from Alec, and the
two discussed the situation.
Back in Malik’s room, Blue and her boyfriend were having a
similar conversation, which ended in both promising they weren’t jealous types
then moving on to the topic of Valentine’s Day. Blue wanted to rent a
helicopter and fly it around while dropping stuff on people, but Malik rejected
the idea and informed Blue the speed those things might fall at could kill
someone. Blue apologized to no one in particular, and Malik suggested they go
for a nice walk in the park and go out to eat.
On Sunday, Teddy had memorized both his scenes, and he and
Gerda ran through theirs with no issues. This left him and Evan to practice
their scene. Ewan graciously vacated him and his twin’s room to practice with
Blue. It wasn’t hard to see how uncomfortable Evan was as Teddy sat on the
twins’ futon, but the blond shot him a grin.
“So, uh, what’s the decision here?” Evan asked. They’d run
through the words plenty of times over, but always sort of blurred through the
kissing part. Finally they’d arrived at an impasse: Evan had his lines
memorized as well as Teddy, and the two didn’t stumble through the dialogue at
all. They’d even managed to have a conversation about how it wasn’t them
kissing but their characters kissing. For quite a while they did getting into
character exercises and created backstories for their characters. Soon they
were both feeling very much like they were actually their respective characters
who were just being reunited after thinking each other had died. This still
brought them back to Evan’s question.
“I’m going to kiss you,” Teddy announced. Before Evan got
the chance to question it, the blond genius’ lips were on his. Evan flailed in
Teddy’s grip, but settled into the kiss just in time for it to end. Teddy’s
eyes slid open to see Evan watching him with a doe-eyed stare, and he laughed.
Neither moved back from the other, as Evan breathed and
spoke softly, “That was…intimate.”
“Tends to be,” Teddy laughed. They paused, and Evan took a
deep breath.
“Can I get a second try?” he asked sheepishly. Teddy nodded
and they leaned in again. Their second try went much smoother than the first.
In fact, it went so well that it led to more practice kisses, and their
practicing only stopped when Teddy joltingly remembered he was in a
relationship and suggested Evan had it down. They laughed awkwardly and called
it a night.
Monday was fairly uneventful, and all the groups practiced
running through their scripts and waited for Miss Allberry to tell them whether
or not she had a date for Valentine’s Day. All she did was giggle and change
the subject when asked, so they figured it was a yes. Teddy at some point
admitted he hadn’t been sleeping because he got addicted to a really good TV
show and couldn’t stop watching. Once he got through season four, the newest
season, his intelligence rebounded to normal levels.
On Tuesday they performed their scenes. Blue couldn’t watch
when Malik and Rashida performed (first), and Malik actually scowled intensely
for the entirety of Blue and Ewan’s (second) and dug his fingers into Teddy’s
leg. Miss Allberry was handing out A’s left and right, except for a very
lackluster performance from Pablo and Jenny (third) which earned an “A for
Jennay, B for Mindfreak because I didn’t feel the loveeee.” Teddy and Gerda
(fourth) were up next, and they earned a new grade, “You look related, A for
acting F for making me think of incest. So…I guess you can have an A. But
like…A tainted A. Tainted with incest.” Gerda laughed and sat down while Teddy
rolled his eyes. Austin and Kip were up next (fifth) and received an A as well.
Estela and Kakahi went next (sixth) and received an A and a commendation, “I
could actually feel the love between these two. Unlike the rest of you lame
people.” The actual couple laughed off her comments, but most of the rest of
the class acted offended. Finally, it was Teddy and Evan’s turn. As soon as
they started their scene, Pablo decided he would leave the room. Ewan and
Austin both opted to follow, citing “general weirdness” as their reason (Evan
had made an uncomfortable face during the whole of Ewan’s scene, and then
informed his brother “That was really weird to watch.” Austin felt similarly).
The scene went off well. So well, in fact, that Miss Allberry
spontaneously applauded at the end when the kiss happened, “That’s how you fake
real love! I mean really, I could feel the love. It was all in the chemistry.
These two clearly have it. I don’t know why the rest of you don’t, you should
work on that…You can stop kissing!” It took a moment for the pair to realize
her words, and they pulled apart sharply with blushes on their faces. “Extra
credit for man kissing for you two! I liked it. Quite. Yum.”
“I’d like to credit staying really ridiculously in character,”
Evan stated, giving a slight smile and slinking back to his seat. Teddy
followed and flopped into his seat next to Malik, who tilted his head at his
friend and received a slightly confused shrug in response. They got to the end
of class pretty quickly once the other two Connellies and Pablo returned, and
as they turned to leave they heard a knock on the door. Miss Allberry skipped
over to it with a grin, pulling it open.
“Oh,” Teddy mumbled, as all those who had picked matches out
for her were sorely disappointed. As they wondered what had happened to their
choices, Miss Allberry moved to introduce the young man.
“This is Abram Paddington,” she said, and the blond man gave
an awkward wave.
“We know that name,” Kip mumbled, as if trying to think of
why. “A teacher you guys had?” he offered to Malik, Blue and Teddy. They
nodded.
Teddy stood and shot straight over to him, “I adore your big
brother like only a little brother can. Let’s be little brothers together.”
“Uh, you must be Teddy?” he replied, and Teddy nodded and
offered his hand to shake. Abram shook it slowly, his discomfort fading and
being replaced by a smile as he did. “Hamilton is fond of you. I would love to
stay to talk, but I promised Today we could go to the park and…?” he trailed
off, glancing at Miss Allberry to finish his sentence.
“Try to break the ice on the lake!” Miss Allberry cheered,
pulling her winter coat on and running outside excitedly. Abram laughed
affectionately at her, and Blue noticed the face reflected the one Malik made when
she had a brilliant idea like Miss Allberry’s ice breaking one. It was
brilliant on so many levels, Blue tried to explain, but no one cared except
Malik, but he just ruffled her hair and shot her that smile he did.
“So I will get to know you at a later date, you have my
word,” Abram promised, turning and following after Miss Allberry with a wave.
The group spent the walk back talking about how their picks
must have decided to make a five way relationship or were in one big car crash
and that’s why they weren’t picked. These were the only logical options. Pablo
skipped dance class just for this one day to hang out with Teddy, and he
grinned at his boyfriend as they walked hand-in-hand. Both the Twingers
thoroughly avoided Teddy’s glances even though they walked nearby, and he made
a mental note that something weird might be happening. The couples separated to
exchange gifts before they planned on going on a double date.
Teddy sat Pablo down, admitted he sort of made out with Evan
in practicing kissing, but cited being “in character” for defense. After Pablo
was assured that Evan wasn’t into him (Teddy decided his statement after their
scene was meant to explain that), and Teddy wasn’t into Evan, he forgave his
boyfriend. In the spirit of the holiday, Teddy handed over a small box and
Pablo gave him one in exchange. In a show of weird planning, they gave each
other identical looking rainbow bracelets and laughed. Pablo kissed Teddy
hesitantly, but Teddy smiled into the kiss and deepened it, reassuring his boyfriend.
A knock on the door interrupted them, and Blue bounded into
the room, “Malik got me a helicopter to fly he’s the best come fly it with me!”
Teddy and Pablo stood excitedly and followed Blue as she ran outside with the
remote controlled helicopter, Malik tailing the group with a proud smile on his
face. Only he noticed the strange sight of Ewan sitting in the lounge by
himself and stopped to talk with him to figure out why he was alone.
“You’re, er…?” he trailed off, and Ewan shared which twin he
was quickly. They spoke shortly, and Ewan swore Malik to secrecy before he
sighed and decided he should probably head back to his room. Malik shrugged to
himself about the conversation as he headed outside to find Teddy and Pablo
playing with the helicopter, running around and generally having fun. The
couple ended up in a tackle as Blue stole it and flew it above their heads.
Malik’s girlfriend walked over to him and hugged him when she spotted him,
letting the helicopter fall to the ground in the process. Apparently it landed
on Pablo and Teddy, because they protested loudly.
After they argued for a while about Blue doing it on
purpose, Teddy and Pablo gave up and tried to race the helicopter, which was
pretty easy, since Blue was actually terrible at steering. When they got tired
of the helicopter, they decided to go to the park to check on Abram and Miss
Allberry. The pair was keeping a distance between them, but they did seem to be
getting along well as Miss Allberry kicked at ice and Abram laughed. Eventually Hammy and Reg showed up to meet
them, so Blue, Malik, Pablo, and Teddy hid out of sight so as not to look like
stalkers.
“All in all,” Teddy said, motioning Abram, “he’s probably
the best choice. So, operation ‘Get a date for Crazypants,’ we agree? Success?”
“Success,” the others replied with grins.
So that happened. Tell me what you think?
