This choice: "Yes, we will. I'll be at your place in a few." • Go Back...Chapter #14"Yes, we will. I'll be at your place in... by: Unknown Beckie raised her eyebrows at your comment declaration, but said nothing.
"Sounds good! My parents are out of town for the next few days and while I'm TECHNICALLY on babysitting duty, my little sister is shut in her room like a... shut-in. So she won't be bothering us." Anna said.
"Alright, see you soon. Love you! Bye!" You said.
"Right back at you!" Anna said, before hanging up.
"Uh, bro? What are you doing?" Beckie asked, setting your phone aside and crossing your arms in front of her chest.
"What? Anna is going to FREAK when she sees what this rapier can do!" You say, the possibilities of the blade filling your head with a plethora of exciting scenes and fantasies.
"Ok, right, I got that part. By why didn't you invite HER over HERE?" She asked.
"Because mom and Steph are gonna be home in an hour, and while I have no idea WHEN Jordan is getting home, I'm pretty sure he'll be bringing his girlfriend over. This house is gonna be packed, and I'm not quite ready to show off the rapier to that many people all at once quite yet." You explained.
"Right." Beckie answered, nodding. She then lifted your hands in front of your eyes. "But how do you expect to GET there? You ain't got no legs lieutenant numbskull!"

"I don't know how to drive, duh!" Beckie responded, rolling her eyes at how obvious the answer was. Shit. With Beckie now piloting your eighteen year old body, you'd momentarily forgotten her true age and the fact that she was several months away from even getting her and/or his learner's permit, much less driving. An idea came into your head, but as though Beckie had reached inside and plucked it straight out she countered "And no, I don't have your body's muscle memory on how to drive a car. You've barely been doing it for a year and you still suck at it!"
"Hey!" You said, thinking you were actually a pretty good and responsible driver.
Continuing without addressing the insult she'd just given out, Beckie said "And even if I DID have your body's muscle memory perfectly, that still wouldn't be enough since I don't have the practical experience to put it into practice for such a long ride. A lot of accidents can happen in fifteen minutes." She said.
You thought this over. She was right, it probably would have been a bad idea to have her drive. On the other hand, you had already promised Anna you'd be there shortly and you REALLY didn't want to cancel on her. Especially if it meant you also had to cancel on playing with the rapier with her tonight. Thinking over your options, you decide to...   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
