We Weren't THAT Bad Were We?
Part 2
"Okay so I'll take Izzy, Elyse and Andrew with me." "Okay Alex. I'm gonna take Liz, Andrea and David with me. Maria you got Michael and the twin terrors right?" "Yeah sure." "Okay we'll see you at the Crashdown later." "Right." "'Kay" Maria turned and walked back to were Michael was watching Mario and Nicky. Michael saw Maria and walked over to her. "So what did your mom say?" "You have to sleep in the living room down stairs." "That's not to bad." "Not bad at all." Maria leaned in and gave Michael a deep kiss.
"Aaaahhhhhhh! You don't ever, ever, ever touch her again! Don't ever!" "Owwwww! No, get off me! Owwww!" "Hey get off him! Yo little boy get off him!" Michael and Maria broke their kiss and ran to where they had left Mario and Nicky. To their surprise Kyle was struggling to get Mario off of another boy and Nicky was sitting with her head in her knees crying. They ran up to help Kyle. Michael pulled Mario off of the boy who was on the ground crying.
"What the hell is going on?!" "Let me at him! He deserves to get it!" Kyle looked at Michael who didn't look like he was struggling that much to control the enraged boy. "Kyle what's going on?" Maria asked. "Well, apparently Freddie said something about that little girl and he didn't like it to much. Is that right Freddie?" The boy just shook his head as he was helped up. "Ahhhhh! Let me at him!" "Well, we need to be going. You need to keep that boy on a leash if he's got that much anger." "Shut up Kyle. Just take that brat and beat it before I tell Michael to let Mario go." "We're leaving."
As soon as they were out of site Michael let Mario go. And to his surprise the little boy hadn't run after the kid. He jerked to were Nicky sat crying. "Let me see!" "No!" "Nicky let me see what he did." "No!" Maria went to go after the little boy until Michael pulled her back. "Let them." "Fine Cheesehead." And she leaned back against him. "Let me see it Nicky." "No!" He grabbed at her hands. "Oww! No that hurts! Stop Mario! Stop!" "Then let me see!" She moved her hands from her face.
"He did that to you? I'm gonna kill him." On her face there was a hand print left and a small showing of a bruise under her eye. "I can't believe he did that to you." "I've gotten worse." "But why didn't you fight back?" "The words hurt more then my face. I was just scared." "You scared?" "It just happened to fast." "Oh. Come on." "Okay." He stood up from where he was knelt and helped her to her feet. "We can go, if that's okay?" "Nicky come here." Nicky walked up to Maria who examined her face. "You'll be fine, I got a number of these at your age. Just be careful next time."
Michael let out a small laugh. "You never got a number of those, except from Kyle and Tommy which was rare considering you gave out more." "She's usually the same I don't know why she didn't hit him back." "I was scared. He snuck up behind me." "I just think you were going to play the baby act around them." "Whatever!" Nicky turned her face away from Mario. "Can we go now?" "Yeah come on you two." And they walked to Maria's car after Mario and Michael piled in the bags.

The Crashdown...
"So how are they doing?" "Who?" "Your brats?" "Oh. They're doing good. What about yours?" "Couldn't be worse." Max, Liz, Alex and Isabel let out a small laugh. "I guess she wasn't kidding when she said she was assigning kids to us by our records." "We weren't that bad were we?" "Yep, if not worse." "But we weren't like that all the time." "No if you weren't fighting you were in trouble." "But we always fought and we probably always will." "Yes, but just like them if someone else tried to pick a fight with the other, the other one would kill that person." "Like Kyle." "Yeah you guys were always fighting. One cause of differences and two over Maria." "What Kyle never ever liked me. He hated me, because I wasn't scared of him and I was a girl." "Exactly. Kyle would hit you when you were down and then Michael would come to your rescue." "Yeah he would. Maybe their all like us somehow."
Everyone turned to where all the kids were. Andrea sitting at a table with David at a table talking exchanging small smiles. Elyse sitting at a counter with Andrew next to her both drinking Alien Blasts talking about Andrea and David and then laughing at their cluelessness. Nicky sitting at a table alone content to be drawing and Mario standing 3 ft. behind her watching her draw. Her never knowing he was there.
"Yeah but it seems as if they got all of us in them." "Yeah." They continued to eat their food watching the 11 year olds catching the time warp every now and then when they caught something so unmistakable.
"I think we should be heading back to my place Michael." "Yeah we have to get them to bed, right?" "Yeah in about an hour, but they'll probably want to watch TV." "Okay. Nicky! Mario! Let's go!" "Coming!" Nicky grabbed her book and through it into her bag and saw Mario turning away from watching her. She gasps. Mario heard the gasp and took off running. He turned his head a little and saw Nicky on his tail. Michael and Maria lifted their head. "Hey stop running before you knock something...over."
There was a loud crash and all was seen was the Deputy and the two kids lying on the ground. "Opps!" "Oh no!" The Deputy stood up as Maria and Michael ran to the two kids lying on the ground. "Well, isn't this a nice greeting." Michael helped the two kids up while Maria apologized. Michael pushed the two kids in front off the Sheriff. "Apologize!" Maria said in a harsh tone.
"Sorry." "We are so sorry Deputy they just don't know when to stop." "I'm sure they don't, are they the children you will be keeping an eye on this weekend?" "Yes." "Well, I hope you can keep them in control. I don't want two set of rascals running through my town tormenting everybody." "And who would that be?" "You two plus those two are not the best mix." "We'll keep that in mind. You two march!" Michael pushed them both out the door.

Maria's house...
"Okay we were gonna let you stay up late and watch TV but you blew it so you get to go to bed early. So go. Mario third door on the right, guest room. Nicky first door on the left, my room." "Where are you two sleeping?" "Well, I'm sleeping in my mother's room and Michael's sleeping down here. Now go to bed." "Goodnight." "Night." The two walked up the stairs poking each other. "Go to bed!" "We are, we are."
"Okay I never thought we were that bad." "No, we were worse." "We were terrible weren't we?" "Well, terrible could be a lesser exaggeration for some of our stunts." "Well, at least we've changed." "Have we?" "Of course we have. We are way more responsible." "Are we?" Michael reached out and pulled Maria into a lingering kiss. "At times." "That's what I thought." "Okay we need to get some sleep if we have to deal with those two tomorrow." "Okay goodnight."

The next day...
"Will you guys get up already! We have a long day planned!" "No, it's only 9:30." "Get up!" "But we don't wanna!" "Will you get up!" "Fine, fine we're up." Isabel put on a satisfied grin. "Told yah I could get them up." "Izzy do you think we should have let them sleep?" "Michael, Maria, Mario and Nicky don't need sleep." "Why not?" "Because we don't want them wired on out outing today." "But still." "No, Isabel is right we don't want them fully pumped." "Thank you Alex. See I'm always right."
Maria climbed out of her mother's bed and rolled over. "I don't wanna get up." "And you think we do?" Maria opened her eyes to Mario and Nicky. "Where's Michael?" "He refuses to get up." Maria flung her legs over the bed. "Well, isn't everybody downstairs where he is sleeping?" "Was sleeping. He's in the guest room on the bed." "Oh no if we have to get up so does he." Maria climbed out of bed and walked to the guest room with Mario and Nicky.
"Michael get you butt up! We are not going to let you sleep and we have to wake up!" Michael rolled over. "So go back to sleep." "And how do we do that?" Michael reached up and pulled Maria into the bed. "Like this. Hey you two close and lock the door. Then put a chair in front of it." "What?" "Are you still tired?" "Of course." "Then do it." Nicky and Mario did as asked then plopped down at the other end of the bed and drifted off to sleep.
"Where are they?" "I don't know, upstairs." "Why aren't they ready yet?" "I don't know, let's go see." Max, Isabel, Alex, Liz, Andrea, Andrew, David and Elyse piled up the stairs. First they looked in Maria's room no one. Then Maria's mother's no one. Finally the guest room. Isabel went to open it. She jiggled the knob. "It's locked." She waved her hand over it not getting attention from the younger kids. "No wait got it." She went to open the door. She pushed the door.
"It wont open Max and Alex both tried. "I don't know why." "I do." "Why Liz?" "Because there's a chair in front of it." "Oh no they don't. Alex kick it in." "What?" "Kick it in." "But it will break." "So I'll fix it later." "Isabel why don't we just leave them alone." "No Max they are getting up if it kills them." The 11 year olds all bust into a fit of laughter at the older kids immaturity, mainly Isabel's. "Open the door."
Alex took one step back and kicked in the door. "Thank you." To their surprise it didn't wake anybody on the bed up. But the surprise was that they were all on the bed. Michael had Maria wrapped in his arms, her leaning against his chest. Nicky was laying on Mario's shoulder, who had his arm under Nicky. Andrea's face lit up at the sight. The only people she ever actually seen Nicky lay that close to was her and Andrew. Liz was just as surprised at the display before them.
"Nicole Chirstan!" "Maria DeLuca!" Everyone in the bed shot up. "Dammit!" Maria turned to see a red hot Michael, apparently he didn't like being woken up. Maria's face grew crimson red in embarrassment. Nicky's face grew red hot also, she was comfortable. Mario's face grew pale he was just waiting for Nicky to swat him. And to his amazement she didn't.
Maria and Nicky both looked at their friends and in unison. "What?!?" Andrew and Elyse fell to the ground in laughter, David stood next to Max shocked. Isabel face was blushing at their interruption and Alex was laughing hysterical with the two kids on the floor. "God can't anybody sleep?" Michael asked sarcastically. "No. You all need to get up and get dressed we are going to the mall. The laughter stopped and all the guys and Nicky and Maria groaned. Liz and the rest of the girls let out a bite of laughter at Isabel's so called 'day out'.
Everyone was dressed and headed out in the same order as they had left school, but this time they headed to the mall for a day of torment.
