“You don’t understand! I have NOTHING to wear!” she screamed idiotically.
“How ‘bout this?” Gypsy said bluntly holding up a pair of Mudd blue jean shorts and a large Chicago Bulls basketball jersey.
“Yea that’ll work.” She said composedly as if nothing happened.
Gypsy shook her head laughing. “God it’s not like Nick’s never seen you before. Hell! He’s seen you naked why should he care what you wear!?” she said laughing.
“Hahaha! Shaddap and call Willow. She was supposed to be here 20 minutes ago.”
Gypsy picked up the phone and called up Willow. “Willi when you getting here?”
“I don’t know what to wear!” Willow blubbered into the phone.
Gypsy rolled her eyes. “Am I the only one that knows what I’m gunna wear!?”
~^~^~^~ Brian and Nick’s Hotel room. ~^~^~^~
“Help me!” Nick said freaking out. He began to dig through his suitcases, throwing all his clothes all over the place.
“Nick, we’re only bowling. It’s not like anyone special is… wait a sec! Someone special IS going!” Brian assumed.
Nick stood up straight and cocked an eyebrow. “What would make you say that?”
Brian laughed placing his hand on Nick’s shoulder. “When was the last time you cared what you looked like?”
“Hey!” Nick whined. “I always care what I look like!”
“Yea but to go bowling? Who is it? Is it Willow? She’s looking hot!”
“Willow? Ew…” Nick said shaking his head.
“Then who?”
“I just wanna look good that’s all! We might meet some girls and we have to be presentable.”
Brian took what Nick said into consideration and began to search for something better to wear. (As if they wouldn’t look hot wearing barrels, shower caps, and soap on a rope!) (Yeah Melli!) (She stole that from me! =^.^=)
~^~^~^~ Back in Billie’s room ~^~^~^~
“See I told you you’d looked fine.”
Willow looked down. She was wearing blue jean Capri’s and a red and white baseball tee with white Sketcher platforms.
“Yea I guess…” she said tying the end of her braided ponytail. “Billie did you call ‘em up?”
Billie was too busy tying up her new Nike sneakers to hear her. Willow took off her platform and threw it at Billie’s head.
“Ouch!” Billie cried getting hit square in the middle of her forehead. “What you want!?”
“Did you call them?” Willow said waddling over to her to retrieve her shoe.
“Yes!” Billie said throwing it back at her.
“What they say?”
“Kevin’s gunna pick us up. We’re all gunna meet up there.” She said rubbing her head.
10 minutes go by and Kevin's horn can be heard from outside.
“C’mon Gypsy!” Billie yelled from down stairs.
“Kevin’s waiting!” Willow yelled, standing next to Billie.
Gypsy emerged from the room wearing two different colored socks, a red skirt, and a pink top. “I don’t know what to wear!” she sniveled down the stairs.
~^~^~^~ At “Bowl-o-rama!” Bowling ally. ~^~^~^~
“I’m gunna go first!”
“No I am!”
“It was my idea!”
“It’s my quarter!”
“Will you two stop it! It’s just a pinball game!” Howie yelled. Brian and Nick looked up with sad eyes.
“Yo, D! It’s your turn!” A.J. said leaning on his pool stick. Howie went over and picked up his pool stick. He was just about to hit the cue ball when someone pinched his butt, causing him to send the cue ball flying.
“What the!” he turned around quickly to find Billie and Gypsy laughing. “Which one of you two pinched my butt?” Billie and Gypsy looked at each other and shrugged.
A.J. chuckled. “Let’s bowl!”
Gypsy, A.J., Howie and Billie walked out of the billiards room to find Nick, Brian, and Willow enthralled in the pinball game.
“C’mon we’re gunna start.” Billie said slapping Nick’s butt. Nick smiled as she took his hand and lead him over to the ally. A.J. looked at them narrowed eyed, not knowing what to think anymore.
“Gypsy is that you!?” Brian said stunned. Gypsy was dressed in Mudd blue jean flairs, a white baby-tee with a cherub design and blue bowling shoes.
“Why hello to you too Brian!” Gypsy grinned placing her index finger on his chin and flicking it off again.
“So how are we gunna do this?” Kevin asked sitting at the scorekeeper chair… thing.
“How about girls against guys?” Willow grinned looking at the girls.
“That’s not fair. There’s 3 of you and 5 of us.” Howie said.
“I know. What ever shall we do?” Billie said in a southern bell accent.
“Well, being that it’s girls vs. guys… Nick why not go on their team and make it even?” Kevin said fiendishly.
“Hey…” Nick said insulted but then realizing the possibilities “Hey!” in an optimistic tone.
~^~^~^~ After many strikes and sodas ~^~^~^~
It was Gypsy’s turn and so far the girls and Nick were winning by… a whole lotta points!
Brian leaned over to Nick “Hey I know! It’s Gypsy right? That’s who you wanna look all good for right?”
“Ew! Dude! No! No offence to her but, Gypsy is NOT my type!” Nick shuttered as the thought ran through his mind again.
“Woo Hoo! Yea baby! Steeeee-rike!” Gypsy did a little dance and slide over to the booth. A.J.’s turn came up as his strutted his stuff over to the line.
“Go A.J.! Go AJ! It’s yo Birfday!” Willow sang out clapping her hands. She soon got hit by the rest of her team for cheering on the enemy.
“C’mon Frack! You gotta tell me!” Brian whined.
“Tell you what! There’s nothing to tell.” Nick laughed.
“Woo Hoo Ta! Woo Hoo Hoo Ta!” A.J. screamed out getting another strike. Willow clapped and got pelted by “Ju-Ju Beans”.
“Ouch! Billie you’re up” she said picking some out of her hair.
Billie walked over to the line. “Oh Nick? Can you help me out here?” Billie grinned looking over her shoulder. “How do you do that throw of yours that always gets a strike?” she smiled innocently.
Nick smiled and wrapped his arm around her. “Well, first of all…”
A.J. sat back with an irritated look on his face.
Brian leaned over and whispered to A.J. “What’s the matter? You look as though they stopped making the Quarter Pounder.”
“Look at them!” he said quietly, but with displeasure in his voice.
“What he’s just showing her how to bowl.”
“She’s made 11 strikes! In a row! No… what they’re doing is flirting!” he said impatiently. Brian’s eyes opened wide as though he had just found out the British were coming. (Does that make sense?)
“They… are?” he said with a dry voice.
“Look at them! She’s all ‘oh helpless me!’ and he’s all about helping her…” A.J. said once again disgruntled. (Teehee like a postal worker! Yea!)
Brian looked over at the two, who indeed were flirting up a storm. His mind was a whirl of thoughts (isn’t that pretty? Are there colors too?) (THE COLORS TRAIN! THE COLORS!) as he began to piece things together.
~^~^~^~^~ Later that night ~^~^~^~^~
In Billie’s giant room, A.J., Billie, and Nick were stretched out on her bed. Billie’s legs were slug over Nick’s, and her head was resting on his chest. Howie was with Willow on the pull out bed, and Kevin, Gypsy and Brian were on a sofa bed. Gypsy grinned as Brian leaned off and rested his head on her shoulder.
“How come mom never bought me any of these cool things for my room? A.J. pouted.
“Because they are for my sleepovers,” Billie said, turning over on her back.
“I could have invited my friends for sleepovers…” He was still pouting
“Flu, before you met these guys, your only friends were Howie, Nick, and a bunch of girls!” They all laughed and A.J. stuffed a pillow over Billie 's face.
“Howie! Quit hogging all the Sour Patch Kids!” Gypsy said smacking him.
“What? Why don’t you yell at Nick for hogging the popcorn?” Nick looked up wide-eyed after having shoveled another handful of popcorn in his mouth.
“Hey you leave Nick alone.” Billie smiled hugging him. A.J. just looked at them suspiciously as Brian narrowed his eyes in a detective kinda way.
“Hey, how about we play truth or dare?” Kevin said, grinning evilly.
“I’m game! Me first.” Billie said, jumping around. “Hmm… Brian, truth or dare?”
“Truth”
“Have you ever been in a shower with a guy? And I don’t mean like a gym shower, I mean like a personal shower.”
Brian thought about it. “Yes I have.”
Willow threw her arms in the air. “Woo Hoo!”
Everyone else whipped his or her head towards Brian. “What!?”
“Yea! I was taking a shower last week and Tyke was in there with me!” He laughed hysterically falling off the sofa bed. “I can’t believe you guys fell for that!” Everyone threw Skittles at him.
“Ow! Ow! Okay! Willow truth or dare?”
“Um… Truth.”
“Out of all of us here, who would you rather spend the night with?”
“Oh definitely both Gypsy and Billie!”
“No I mean, hot and heavy like.”
Willow grinned walking over, putting her arms around Gypsy and Billie as they grinned as well. “I know what you meant.” She said cocking a brow. The 5 just stood there stunned at her response. The three broke down laughing.
“I… can’t believe… you guys… fell for that!”
~^~^~^~ A few hours later ~^~^~^~
“Alright Gypsy I dare you to…” Howie looks around for some ideas. “French kiss Nick!”
Gypsy and Nick looked at each other and at the same time made grossed out faces. “Ewww!”
“Well then, you know the penalty!” Kevin grinned.
“Well maybe just one kiss…” Gypsy said.
Nick jumped back. “Nuh uh! I don’t think so!” he hid behind Billie tickling her. Billie squealed rolling around. A.J. gave them an unpleasant look while Brian made this “Ah ha!” face as he came to his conclusion.
“Oh fine!” she pouted. She stood and walked over to Brian. Brian beamed at her and raised one of his socks. Gypsy frowned as Brian tied it around her head, over her nose. “Oh! Oh! It’s all stinky and warm!”
They all went to sleep after a few hours of eating, Nintendo, and movies. Billie snuggled up next to A.J. She smiled at Nick and took his hand, interlacing her fingers with his. He smiled back at her, wanting to be the one she snuggled up next to. They closed their eyes and went to sleep, holding each other’s hands.
~^~^~^~ The next morning ~^~^~^~
“Ugh! Gramma, you should have seen him last night! He looked so good I just wanted to jump on him and kiss him over and over again, but I couldn’t!” whined Billie, putting her head on her grandma’s lap.
Gramma smiled sympathetically and stroked Billie's hair. “I know, sweetie, I know. Why don’t you just tell everyone? How bad could it be?”
“How bad can what be?” A.J. asked, yawning and stumbling into the living room.
~^~^~^~ Billie’s room ~^~^~^~
Kevin looked around the room. Mostly everyone was asleep. He stood up and walked over to Nick. “Nick…Nick….” he whispered, shaking him
Nick smiled in his sleep “Bebz stop that…”
Kevin raised a brow. He thought about that for a moment before shaking him again.
“Bebz! Not here…” he laughed in his sleep before rolling over.
“Nick!” Kevin smacked him.
Nick jumped up, scared. “What? What? What?” He opened his eyes slightly to see Kevin towering over him “Oh you! What happened?”
“Nick…whose Bebz?” Kevin asked, looking down at him weirdly.
Nick’s eyes widened up. “Oh…uh…nobody why?”
“You were telling this ‘Bebz’ person to stop something and whatever they were doing, not to do it here…”
“Oh well…Bebz is what I call my…my…uh…” He snapped his fingers. “…Car! Yes my car! See it never stops when I hit the brakes and it always breaks down when I don’t need it to!” he smiled.
~^~^~^~ The living room ~^~^~^~
“Er…um…” Billie looked up at Gramma, nervously.
“Her trip to the dentist!” replied Gramma.
“Oh…you have nothing to worry about BooBoo! You have perfect teeth.” A.J. smiled, walking into the kitchen.
Billie stood up and followed him. “FluFlu, what would you do if I were going out with… let’s say… Brian?” She looked down at the counter, picking a hole into an orange.
“I’d kill him. He’s too old to be going out with an 18yr old,” he replied, pouring himself a glass of orange juice.
“What about Nick?” She looked up at him.
“I’d say good luck.” He took a big gulp of the juice.
“Why?” She put on an odd face.
“Because, he’ll need it after I find him!” A.J. laughed.
Billie rolled her eyes. “I’m serious.”
“Why do you wanna know this anyway?” A.J. narrowed his eyes.
~^~^~^~ Billie’s room ~^~^~^~
Kevin just shrugged. “And they say I’M losing it! Sheesh!” he laughed under his breath, walking over to wake up Howie and Willow
“Start you stupid car! I’m gunna miss J.C.!” Willow screamed waving her arms in the air the second Kevin touched her. He jumped back to get away from the rampaging arms. Howie got caught in the crossfire and got thwaped in the face by the flying arms.
“AAHH!” Howie screamed in terror, being abruptly awakened from his sleep. The scream woke Brian up, sending him rolling off the bed with a loud thud.
“Oof!” Brian muttered, hitting the floor. A muffled mumble could be heard very faintly. Brian looked around for the mumble. Suddenly he’s thrown aside by Gypsy who had been pushed out of bed earlier that night and now crushed by Brian.
Kevin just stood there, in the center of chaos. “Um…Morning?” They all gave him a harsh look and threw their pillows at him.
~^~^~^~ The Kitchen ~^~^~^~
“Just wondering. I mean, I remember what you did to Inferno when we were going out,” she said nervously, picking the hole larger.
“Yea… that was fun! I have never seen anyone run so fast over a little ity bity pit bull. What the hell kind of name is that anyway? Inferno? Sounds like bar-b-q charcoal!” A.J. mocked.
“Hahaha!” she sarcastically laughed, flicking a piece of the orange peel at him.
Kevin walked into the kitchen, laughing. Billie smiled and gave him a goofy look. “Saw your reflection, didn’t ya?”
“No, saw your bra size!” he whipped back, laughing more.
“No really, what you laughing at?” A.J. asked.
“I just saw Willow throw a fit, hit Howie in the face, making him scream like a girl, causing Brian to fall off the bed and land flat on Gypsy who somehow was on the floor all by waking Nick up!” he laughed.
“Kev… I think you need to lay down again…”
