EMILY WALLACE
New York: Saturday March 29th, 2014
[FONT="Arial Black"]E[/FONT]mily heard her cellphone ring from underneath the blankets, forcing her to abandon the task at hand. She took off the covers and reached for the device, only taking a second to smile at Erin who looked rather impatient with the interruption, but smiled back at her anyways. A mere second went by before she cursed and jumped out of bed, not even taking the time to grab some clothes. "Get ready," she told Erin as she reached the door. "We're going to be late!" Without even waiting for a reply, she turned and ran for the bathroom.
Faster than she thought she was possible, she jumped in to the shower, cleaned off, and got right back out. Not even taking the time to dry off, she grabbed the towel hanging off the rack. She walked out of the bathroom only to hear Erin yelling from the kitchen. "Why are you yelling at the TV?" She asked him, walking into the living room as she wrapped the towel around her body, albeit loosely. Emily expected him to be watching something stupid. It was early morning after all and half the time, the only thing that was on was Sesame Street or something similar. Of course, she did not expect him to simply be standing there with nothing on and a bowl of cereal in his hands. "Erin, what are you doing?" There were just some days where she didn't know what to do with him. One day, he'd be acting like a grown man and the next, like a child… Ok, he always acted like a child.
"Mr. Noodles doesn't know where his goddamn hands are!" Erin replied, clearly exasperated by the fictional character on TV. "What does he wash when he gets out of the bathroom? His dick?" Erin walked from their small kitchen area and sat at the table, taking a bite of his Frosted Flakes. He didn't look over at Emily until then. "Did you want a bowl? I didn't make you any."
"I just told you that we were gonna be late," she said to him, her voice sounding somewhat stressed. "I have an extra practice before the meet on Tuesday and it wouldn't exactly be smart to skip." She rubbed her temples slowly, trying to release some of the stress before she blew up. "We have about fifteen minutes before we have to go, so please, bare with me." She tried to give him a smile before heading back to the bedroom.
"But what about breakfast!? You can't skip the most important meal of the day!" Erin yelled after her.
"Make me a snack for the ride!" She called out to him before grabbing her bag. Luckily enough, she had packed for the practice, even if she hadn't exactly remembered it. Not wasting any time, she proceeded to put on what she needed; underwear, her red and white leotard, and finally a pair of black shorts. Slinging her bag over her shoulder, she began going through her boyfriend's clothes, randomly grabbing whatever she thought would work. "Trade?" she asked quickly as she rushed back into the kitchen, grabbing the bowl from Erin's hands and handing him the clothes.
"But what about my important meal?!" Erin asked before swallowing his food. "I haven't even made the PB&J yet! And are these my Saturday clothes?"
"Saturday clothes?" she questioned. "I found these on the floor. Try and hurry up if you can. Maybe we can finish what we started afterwards." She gave him a smile before taking a bite. Ten minutes left was all they had. Hopefully, nothing would get in their way at this point.
"You mean restart. He and I both know that I was the one to finish that job." Erin put on his clothes which was really just a pair of blue jeans and a dark green shirt. "And do you want me to starve?" He asked, gesturing to his rudely stolen breakfast. "I haven't even made your snack yet!"
"There's only three spoonfuls left," Emily teased before giving him a bite, "and don't worry about a snack. I'll be fine with the rest of this. Grab your keys, alright?"
"Keys…?" Erin patted his pants pockets and looked around the small area around them. "Do I even know where my keys are?" He walked passed Emily, looking left and right across the apartment before going into his not-so-clean room to look through the clothes on the floor or maybe somewhere in his bed. "I put them next to the bed last night didn't I?" Erin asked from the room to Emily as he looked at the empty nightstand he'd just mention. Erin scratched his head, absolutely confused.
"I'll look out here," she called in reply. He'd misplace his arm if it wasn't attached, she thought as she tooked the short, few step into the living room. Unlike Erin's room, it was at least relatively clean. Move a pillow here, check between the seats there, and in no time at all, she found the keys. They were those same old Toyota car keys with the cute little frog keychain on them. It'd been blowing the same plastic, pink bubblegum for months now.
"Holy sh*t, I just found a twenty!" Erin yelled from his room.
"Holy sh*t, I just found your keys!" She teased. "Get out here!" Erin came out of the room a moment later with a twenty in his hand and an ear-to-ear grin.
"You've got the keys. I've got the twenty. Wanna go to iHop after this gymnastic thing?"
"Sure, as long as we get to the gym on--" Emily was cut off when the lights began to flicker. "What the hell is going on?" She said turning around. Everywhere the electronics were flashing on and off. In the kitchen, the microwave flashed as if it was cooking invisible food every few seconds, and in the living room, the TV was rapidly switching through channels before stopping on static. "Erin, I think this is a sign that we should get moving."
That's when everything immediately turned off, leaving nothing but the snow on the screen. In a matter of seconds the TV glowed brightly before a light flew from the it and to Emily's pocket, doing the same to Erin's watch right after. The watch morphed into a sleeker design, causing Emily to reach into her pocket. Grabbing what she had thought to be her phone, a watch of the same design, albeit different colors, immediately attached itself to her. "What is going on?" She cried, trying to rid herself of the watch to no avail. Erin did the same but didn't get a single budge. The TV flashed itself again and this time with two large objects coming from the screen. Slowly, they floated to the ground and onto the apartment floor, causing the lights to go off once more.
The pair stared at the eggs for a few seconds waiting to see what would happen. Soon enough, the electricity come back on and after a few more moments Emily moved closer to the large eggs. She reached for one, its yellow surface covered with orange stripes; beside her, Erin did the same, his egg covered in blue splotches here and there.
"So…" Erin said, a large grin on his face. "Does this count as part of my sports package?"
"I think it would probably be a part of the Animal Planet package…" She replied, still staring at the egg. Sighing, she looked at her phone…her watch. "Erin, we got to go!"
