Angel and Bria had just drifted off to sleep when suddenly...
***CRASH!***
They were jarred instanly awake by a loud noise that came from the direction of... the garage...
Bria: Oh NO... wonder what THAT was?
Angel: (groggily) Ben probably practicing his famous "watch me show off by putting my head through my drumset" routine... now go back to sleep...
Bria: Yeah, your prolly right.... g'night...
Their heads had just hit the pillow when suddenly Daniel burst in the room (wearing a LOVELY lingerie creation by Frederick's of Hollywood in silky soft plum satin)
Daniel: Chris is loose! You gotta come help us find him!!!
Bria: WHAT? What do you mean loose?
Daniel: I dunno how it happened... He was right there on the floor.. I even had the newspapers underneath him and his water bowl was right there so he could reach it... All I know is one minute me and Ben were.... well.. skip that part, but anyway... there was this loud crash and Chris was gone.
Angel: Oh good grief. (gets out of bed and puts her robe on over her night shirt)
Daniel: Wow - I LOVE that! Wonder if it comes in my size?
He reaches out to touch Angel's sleeve but she smacks his hand.
Angel: Gawd, Daniel, keep your mind on the subject would you? We have to go find him! Poor defenseless little Chris out there all alone in the dark, cold, probably scared to death... GOOD LORD WHAT IF HE GETS IN THE ROAD!
With this the three of them go rushing down the stairs and into the front yard where Ben is there already, rolled up newspaper in hand, calling Chris' name repeatedly.
Bria: And just what are you planning on doing with THAT? (she takes the rolled up newpaper from Ben and hits him repeatedly over the head with it)
Ben: Ow! Ow! Ow! Cutitout! You have to discipline him or he'll never learn!
Bria: I'll discipline YOU! (hits him with the paper again)
Ben: but that's Daniel's job...
Angel and Bria: ewwwww...
The four start to walk up and down the streets in the neighborhood calling Chris' name... They walk around for half an hour with no luck when they come upon a 7-11 Bria is struck with a brilliant idea.
Bria: anybuddy here seen that movie ET?
Angel: Yeah... why?
Bria: Well I was thinking of that part in the movie where the little boy wants to get ET to follow him home so he lays a trail of Reeses Pieces to his house...
Angel: Hmmmm... it's so wacky it just might work! Let's go get some!
So the four rush into the 7-11 (being eyed MOST suspiciously by the man behind the counter) and down the candy isle... To their dismay the store was all out of Reeses Pieces AND M&Ms... so they had to settle for a box of cherry flavored cough drops.
Ben: Think it'll work?
Daniel: it's worth a shot. You know how he'll put anything in his mouth.
Ben: No, Daniel... Do tell us about that. (Daniel smacks him)
Angel: ok, BOYS, let's get this little plan in action here so we can find poor Chris and get our asses back to bed.. or.. wherever you were...
They all start laying out a trail of cough drops until they were once again at Ben's garage.
Angel: Guess all we can do now is sit and wait.
Daniel: Fine, but I'm going inside to get my moisturizer... this night air is dreadful to my sensitive skin!
Ben, Bria, and Angel all sit down when suddenly Daniel called from inside.
Daniel: Uhhhh... guys? You might wanna come in here and see this....
Ben, Bria, and Angel all get up and go inside to find a bewildered Daniel standing in front of Chris, who is curled up on his pile of newspaper, sound asleep, but with his favorite teddy bear wrapped in his arms.
Angel kneels down beside him and pets him on the head.
Angel: Awwww.... he's so precious when he's asleep.
Bria: (smiles sweetly at the sleeping Chris) He just needed his teddy, that's all! (turns around and slaps the shit out of Daniel and Ben both) And you two got us out of bed for this???!!! You KNOW we have a big day tomorrow!!
Daniel: Well how was I suppose to know he was coming BACK?
Angel: Honestly, Daniel.... you should take better care of him! Poor widdle thing.. (scratches Chris' tummy, which makes his leg shake)
Bria: We're going back to bed.... I trust there won't be any more disturbances out of you two tonight?
Ben and Daniel: No ma'am...
Bria: I'll believe it when I see it...
Bria and Angel walk back to the house and go back to bed... The rest of the night is quiet...
the rest is kind of dodgy!
let me read more stories!
