“Frank?” I asked, walking up to the door. “You went and got pizza?” I was confused. “Actually, “ he began while stepping inside, dragging along a box of pizza and holding up a hat, “ I went and got a job.” He wore this big, retarded, but super-cute grin on his face. What confused me even more was when Mikey opened his arms in a large embrace. At first I was shocked…but then he grabbed the box -_-. “Oh pizza I’ve missed you!” he cried, over-dramatically emphasizing each movement with a sobbing motion, while Frank awkwardly held firm to the box. We all broke into laughter.
“So Frank,” Mikey began, “when did you? Well…how..? explain.” “Yeah yeah I know. You see I’ll be honest, I came back after about half an hour and heard you two screaming and cursing like a married couple.” Mikey and I glanced at each other nervously. “So I just went for another walk to give you two some more time, when I came across this pizza place. Apparently it’s a 24 hr. pizza shop, so I took a chance and went to ask about a job,” he paused to swallow a bite of pizza, “turns out they’re short on staff.” Oh Gosh there’s the smile again. He took another bite.
“Mmm. I’m froud nmouchumm an lumoo…” “Mikey I told you not to speak with your mouth filled. We can’t understand shit you’re saying!” I scolded. He sighed through his nose (Seeing that his mouth was already pre-occupied). “Froine!” Frank started to giggle and I couldn’t help but join in….with a smile. When he finally finished chewing and swallowing on the last bit of pizza, he looked up at Frank. “I’m proud of you man. It really would help if someone else around here had a job that wasn’t paying them in comic books.” He said, shooting me a dirty look. I smiled in my heart. Mikey was being nice to Frank, possibly even getting along. “Why so serious Gee?” I looked up to meet the gaze of a wide-eyed Frank. He just looked so adorable.
“Well I was kinda wondering why you bought pizza.” He just shrugged his shoulders a little before answering. “They say it’s complementary, or something to that effect…seeing as I did my first delivery.” He looked up at me and I smiled back. “well let me be the first to give you a tip.“ I said while reaching into my pocket. Frankie just stared at me. “Actually you’ll be the second. I already DID a delivery.” “you did?! In what time?!” I asked obviously confused and surprised. He just sighed and looked at me. “I don’t know. You guys spent like two hours arguing. And well the guy lives next door, Mr. Len…Lamb..uhh” “Lebanon?” I asked. “Yeah him. Cool dude.” “how come he bought pizza? I never see him collect any? I said. Frankie gasped, opening his eyes as big as they could get…gosh those eyes. “So you DO pay attention to others!” he laughed and I just sighed. “Well I had just gotten hired and they told me to do one delivery and then I can go home. When I walked out front he was there. Apparently he was gonna wait it out in the line but when he recognized me, he said he’d order and give me a ride home.” I was a bit concerned….why? I don’t know. That Mr. Lebanon…sorry, Findell was getting a bit too…..involved.
I sighed. The ‘mother’ in me was taking over much too often. “Oh well,” I shrugged while reaching for another slice. “You should….wait….WHAT THE..!!” Where the fuck did all the pizza go? I glanced up at a giggling Frankie who was desperately trying not to laugh. When I looked at Mikey, he was holding the last slice of pizza, laughing away with the tip of it in his smile. “Da fuck did all the pizza go?” I said to a now laughing Mikey who was just too full to sit up. “Ahhhaahhaaha. Oh Go…ahhaaha!” Mikey was laughing. Frankie was now on his stomach sniffling and guffawing while I just stared wearily at the both of them while they laughed. What manner of creatures did I live with…like seriously! How much pizza can two people eat? It was a freakin 12 slice for crying out loud! I shook my head and got up. I was about to pick my plate up when I saw about 5 or 6 slices piled on to it. “you little fuckers.” I said while smirking, to which the just laughed louder. “Gg..gee, hah, you don’t *sniff* notice stuff after all.” Mikey said in between giggles. “Dude you were just piling slice upon slice onto your plate without out knowing. Haha…I would have *giggle* saige something but it wahhaaas so dahaham hilarious!!!” Frank laughed out at me. I looked down. They weren’t lying. I myself began to laugh. “You little fuckers.”
