.007. Babysitting

Who would have thought?

Kids can be so adorable... when they're asleep, of course. I don't think I've ever met a six year old boy with so much energy. Though, it was nothing a couple of bed time stories couldn't solve... after calming him down and convincing him that the 'boogieman' wasn't anywhere near.

Casey seems to be very good with kids. It

*walking on you while you're cooking |D* Hey, pancakes sounds just about right.

[notad_i_d]

*Turns around in a jump in an immediate reaction to this, now holding the pan as a weapon and sending the pancake directly to the wall.* Oh, for the love of..-! Don't do that, Michelangelo! You almost gave me a heart attack! *Rubs her temples and settles down the pan.* Ah, you came back to normal.

[sewer_surfer]

Hey, hey, I come in peace. *chuckles as he raises both arms and sits down in a nearby chair.* Thought you have the whole sixth ninja sense under control by now. And now that poor pancake had to pay the price. *laughs a little as he points to the pancake in the wall* And yeah, you don't know how weird it was waking up on your bed, not like I have anything against your bed, but yeah.

[notad_i_d]

*Lets out a frustrated groan as she sees the pancake on the wall.* Oh, great. *Takes a mental note of cleaning up that later and she sits on one of the chairs as well.* Well, you wouldn't settle down and sleep as a kid unless I stayed with you. And I had to send Casey to sleep to the couch again because we didn't fit on the bed. *Sighs.* You surely had a lot of energy... not like you don't now. *Chuckles* Ah, feel free to grab as much as you like. *Hands motion to the pancakes.*

[sewer_surfer]

*takes a few pancakes into his plate and starts eating after putting on them a good load of honey* It was weird, I remembere being here before this time. Also that you and Casey were here too, and that you had that antique shop of yours... He has been sleeping to many times on the couch, huh?

[notad_i_d]

*Sighs at this* I know. I hope he doesn't mind it's just... Maybe I'm just acting spoiled and exaggerating things. *Makes a small pause.* I'll make sure to make it up to him.

[sewer_surfer]

*looks down a little and pokes the pancake on his plate*Yeah.. I think I know what you mean.

[notad_i_d]

*Looks at him with an eyebrow slightly raised. A small knowing smile on her lips.* Does this have to do anything with the relationship between you and Don?

[sewer_surfer]

*almost chokes with the pancake he was eating* W-what? How do you-?

[notad_i_d]

*Laughs softly.* Oh, you might have your 'ninja' sixth sense, but I, my friend, have the infallible woman's sixth sense. *Winks* That and the fact that I can read. It was as obvious as add two plus two.

[sewer_surfer]

That obvious, huh? *sighs and just wants to dissapear because he's so embarassed*

[notad_i_d]

*Offers a supportive smile.* You know I'm all ears. *Her tone is like an offer, not wanting to pressure Mikey.*

[sewer_surfer]

... *doubts for a moment as he pokes the pancake again* It's just... I know I had been here before, even if I don't remember it too cleary... but sometimes it feels like I'm remembering the life someone else lived. I feel so foreing.

[notad_i_d]

*Remains silent for a few seconds in case Mikey wanted to add something else.* So, you reckon you don't feel the same way now?

[sewer_surfer]

Eh, oh no! I... *pauses, biting his tongue a little as he doesn't know how to put it. If he was human his cheeks would be bright pink by now* Just... how could you forget feelings as well?

[notad_i_d]

*Pauses for a moment as well. Thoroughly choosing the words she was about to say next.* You know, maybe I'm foolishly romantic... or maybe the fact that, well, I' am a woman. *Pauses again.* But I always believed that.. people who are meant to be with each other will be always, no matter in which scenario they are. Feelings don't change.
