ZAGF chapter 62

The next day Tallulah woke up and skipped down stairs. She was excited to go to the carnival that afternoon after Zim and Tak got home. Bob was sitting on the couch watching TV with Pet.

“Good morning Tallulah,” he said turning a bit red.

“Morning Bobby!” she said happily.

“I see you’re in a good mood today,” he said with a smile.

“Yup! Can’t wait for tonight!” she said twirling.

Bob smiled more. Pet was watching silently as Tallulah twirled.

“Hey I’m gonna go to the mall! K?” Tallulah said.

“Ok,” Bob said.

“Need anything while I’m gone?” she asked.

He shook his head no. Tallulah waved goodbye and headed out the door. Once she got to the mall she looked around. Somebody tapped her on the shoulder and she turned around to see Theo.

“Theo? What are you doing here?” she asked.

Theo shrugged.

“I’m bored. Mimi and Gir went off somewhere I don’t know,” Theo said.

“Ok then…well…I guess you can hang around with me if you like,” Tallulah said unsurely.

Theo smiled and nodded. They walked the mall until they found Brittney, Mitchell, and Amber. They were sitting on a bench talking and drinking smoothies. Tallulah ran up to them with Theo following.

“Hey guys! I got an idea for what we talked about yesterday!” she said.

“You do, do you?” Brittney said with an eye brow raised.

“Yea!” Tallulah said with a smile.

“Who’s the little boy?” Amber asked pointing to Theo.

Tallulah turned to him then turned back to the girls.

“This is my little brother Theo,” she said with a smile.

Theo smiled and waved.

“He’s c-” Mitchell started before getting Tallulah’s hand put over her mouth.

“Don’t say the C word…he hates it,” Tallulah said.

Theo had an angry look on his face. He hated the C word more than anything. Tallulah took her hand off Mitchell’s mouth.

“Sorry Theo,” she said with a frown and hanging her head.

Theo nodded, took out his Game slave 5 out, and started to play it.

“He doesn’t say much,” Amber said.

“You should see him at home. He talks up a storm,” Tallulah said rolling her eyes.

“So what was that plan of yours?” Brittney asked before taking a sip of her smoothie.

“Oh yea! Me and my family are going to the carnival tonight! So if we go to the carnival I can possibly get Bobby alone and maybe get to get something romantic out of him. After you girls pointing out that he likes me I kinda figured it out afterwards…especially after I hugged him,” she said with a giggle.

Theo looked up at Tallulah.

“You just figured it out that Bobby likes you?” he asked raising an eye brow.

“Well…yea…but I mean…you know oblivious I am…right Theo?” Tallulah asked.

“I’m oblivious too and yet I saw it long before you did!” he said angrily.

“Theo…how long has he liked me?” she asked with a frown on her face and sad eyes.

“Since the second day you and he became friends,” he said putting his GS5 in his pocket and crossing his arms.

“How long have you guys been friends for?” Amber asked.

“Long time…” Tallulah said sadly.

“Ouch,” Brittney said.

Tallulah hung her head. She wished had noticed before.

“You ok Tallulah?” Brittney asked.

“Yea…” she replied.

“Should we go home master?” Theo asked.

“Master?” Brittney said with a smirk.

Tallulah gave him a look. Theo gave a small sheepish smile.

“I lost a bet…so I have to call her master as least a few times a day,” he said sheepishly.

Mitchell and Amber laughed and Brittney smirked. Tallulah gave a small smile.

“How about we get going Theo? Zim and Tak might be home already,” Tallulah said.

Theo nodded.

“Let’s go,” Tallulah said hanging her head.

“Hold up,” Brittney said taking Tallulah’s arm.

“Yea?” Tallulah asked turning to Brittney.

“So run this by me again…what’s your plan?” Brittney asked.

Tallulah sighed.

“I only have a setting…not exactly a plan for anything…I know he likes me….but I don’t know what to do now,” she said sadly.

“What about the ferries wheel?” Theo asked.

“What about it?” Tallulah asked.

“Tak said ferries wheels are romantic…you could get him on that,” he said.

“I thought you hated love,” Tallulah said raising an eye brow.

“I do…but I love planning things,” he said with a grin.

Amber and Mitchell giggled.

“I like that. You should try that,” Brittney said.

“Want an added bonus?” Theo asked with a devilish smirk.

“What would that be?” Tallulah asked rolling her eyes.

“Tak and Zim plan on leaving you two together anyways. They know Bobby likes you and try to leave you with him so he can tell you all the time,” Theo said.

“So that’s why Tak and Zim always paired us up! I thought it was because they thought we got a long better than me and Zim or me and Tak!” Tallulah said surprised.

Theo grinned. He liked doing all the realization to her.

“So that’s what you do. Wait for your brother and sister to leave you two alone, get him on the ferries wheel, and if he doesn’t tell you he likes you, you cuddle up to him and tell him yourself! It’s brilliant!” Brittney said, “You’re one smart kid Theo!” Brittney said impressed on how much help he was.

“I do what I can,” he said proudly.

Tallulah rolled her eyes.

“Thanks for the help you guys! I’ll talk to ya later and tell you how things went!” Tallulah said taking Theo by the hood, pulling him and waving to the girls goodbye.

“Bye! And Good luck!” they said.

“So you’re gonna go with that master?” Theo asked still being pulled by the hood.

“Yup! Any problems?” Tallulah asked.

Theo thought for a second before saying, “Not that I can think of.”

“Ok then! Let’s get home!” Tallulah said.

“K…” Theo said walking with her.

Tallulah smiled and they started towards home.
