Tough Love Part 81
Chapter 81 The Magic Show Today was quite exciting for me. I would be missing the second half of math and majority of fourth block for the magic show Nick and I would be doing. But get thisâ??of the teachers could sign up for their class to see it, so most of the auditorium would be full. I knew the last trick we would do is called â??Assistantâ??s Revengeâ?, which would swap my and Nickâ??s position during the trick. It is also a tribute to Robert Harbin, the magician who created it and had died at the beginning of this year. Nick was also psyched that Robert Harbin was born on Valentineâ??s Day because quote-on-quote, â??I want to get married on Valentineâ??s Day. Are you up for grabs?â? â??Are you ready?â? he asks backstage. â??I think!â? I had gotten ready in the bathroom and the band teacher was nice enough to take his class to the garden courtyardâ??the one by the chorus roomâ??while Nick and I sat our stuff in there and decked each otherâ??s outfits, which we already knew we were going to wear. We had picked out MY outfit together! I had on a long, flowing, puffy top with a black vest over it, gold buttons, and red pants. We couldnâ??t escape the fact that I needed to wear heels as well, so I wore a black pair with a fedora hat that wouldâ??ve made Abraham Lincoln think I was copying his own tall hat! Nick, with his fancy suit on, which pulled all the stops, and white gloves made me happy that he was the magician and I was just helping out. â??Ready?â? â??I sure am!â? Though I was SURE nervous as well! We came out to a nearly full house, claps, and even some whistles. â??Thank you, thank you!â? Nick kept saying about the whistles and such. Everybody knew he was one of the schoolâ??s biggest flirts. â??The first trick we will be doing is the penny in the cup, and I shall swallow it!â? Nick decided to do two lame tricks before getting to the good ones. We couldnâ??t have stuff like water or dealing with religion, but our first OFFICIAL trick was â??Aztec Ladyâ?, which made me giggle since it catered to the girls. Nick picked a guy from the audience. I canâ??t tell you the secret of this trick, but Iâ??m sure everyone has seen it! One of my favorites was â??Super Chair Suspensionâ? since Nick played the part of being stuck to a chair so beautifully. And the other one I liked was when the â??Guillotineâ? because he stuck his head in a fake one as I stuck a strawberry in his mouth, then I viciously â??slicked his head away from his neckâ?. It was funny, but more of a controversial ones, and at the end of that trick, we said we were only kidding around, which put some of the crowd at ease. We did Metamorphosis then Nick is selfless enough to let me do â??Cups and Ballsâ?, though when he first told me, I told him he should because one of his God given gifts is juggling, which the trick sounded like. Nick REQUESTED we do â??Magic Sandâ? because it sounded cool, and extraordinary, and innovative. Of course he does the trick with the rabbit, which is his own rabbit he named â??Billyâ?, but Billy with a â??i-eâ? so itâ??ll be â??differentâ?. Billie snuggled with me, and thatâ??s when we finally did â??Assistantâ??s Revengeâ?. â??Watch how this ends, ladies and gentlemen!â? After Nick and I â??mysteriouslyâ? swap positions, something unplan goes. We donâ??t say anything else as I paint my smile for the crowd, and he looks at me like he wants to say something. He leans towards my face, and the curtain which covers what goes on on stage is dropped down over us momentarily. As I look at him like â??What are you doing?!â? the curtain goes back up and he continues the trick while itâ??s still silent, and Iâ??m back in my old position while he is strapped down again. â??And ladies and gentlemen, thatâ??s all!â? Everyone stands up and applauds. I hear whistles and such. I just hope to not hear an encore. Nick and I take each otherâ??s hand as we bow to the left, right, then the middle. I told him to let us do that because Iâ??ve seen the Jackson clan do it. I knew if Michael or the other members was here, they would be smile. As we go backstage, Nick hears a handful from me. â??What in the?!â? â??How in the?!â? â??What in the bleep were you thinking?!!â? Stuff along those lines, Nick heard. But he cracked up. â??It was a trick, Madame Lyric! Everyone knew it was irony.â? â??How?â? â??Because I played Paris in â??Romeo and Julietâ??. Paris never got anything from Juliet.â? He looks at me. â??The whole thing shouldâ??ve been called â??Parisâ??s Revengeâ??.â? He says dramatically. â??Whatever!â? After I change back in my normal outfit and was walking through the auditorium, I see Dad and Michael! Even Randy, too! â??Hey guys, what are yâ??all doing here?â? I give Dad, then Michael, and Randy a one-arm hug. â??Just here to see my daughter do magic tricks!â? â??Yeah, weâ??re so proud of you.â? Michael had reached out and rubbed my upper-half of my arms in excitement. I kept laughing. And before they questioned me, I explained to them why Nick had did what heâ??d done. Dad just shakes his head and hugs me again. â??I guess weâ??ll be going, now. I know you have to get back to class.â? Dad says. â??Yeah,â? I say sadly. â??I really donâ??t wanna go.â? â??But hey, one more week!â? â??Yep! I know.â? And I give him his high-five as Michael and Randy gives each other an knowing-smile. And when Randy hugs me again, he kisses my cheek. â??This is on the behalf of all of us.â? He gets a rose out his back pocket. â??Awe thanks guys!â? And once again, we give each other a hug before they finally leave. I turned around again and I see M.J. I walk up to him as we hug. Teachers were still in here. â??If I could, Iâ??d give you a kiss, but Iâ??ll see you this afternoon? Your locker, right?â? â??Yep! See you then.â? Iâ??m at my locker, and I feel something wet on my ear. I turn around, basically expecting M.J., and there he goes, on the back of my ear as I giggle. â??Boy, come on before you get us into trouble.â? â??I see you arenâ??t wearing the promise ring.â? I look down at my neck. I had already rehearsed what I was gonna say because I know heâ??s the type whoâ??ll ask. â??It didnâ??t go with what I was wearing today.â? â??I guess.â? He pulls me in as I tugged on the necklace he was wearing. â??Nun-uh, you didnâ??t want to wear the other one I gave you.â? I laughed at him. While weâ??re walking away, my friends stop us. â??I thought you were going to celebrate the magic show with us today.â? Nick said. I totally forgot they were going to a restaurant to celebrate. I feel M.J. grip on my shoulder a little more. â??Guys, Iâ??m sorry. I already promised M.J., and Iâ??m sorry.â? â??Another time?â? M.J. asks. â??Yeah, another time.â? I agree. â??Fill me in,â? I wink at Dani, Pat, and Sherry. â??I guess,â? Sherry says in a questioning way. As usual, we walked, but itâ??s not unusual in California. You see people walking in California ALL THE TIME. I was going to tell M.J. about Nick being ironic, but I couldnâ??t right now since I was listening to him talk. When we walked in, it was already dark from the lightening, but we played a bunch of games that WE decided to make hands-on. But I kept beating him to air hockey, which I would play with my parents all the time when I was younger, though I would usually lose to Dad, and feel guilty when I would beat my mom. But as we played basketball, he kept wining and I felt bad, but I still had a smile on my face. The person at the cash register said he was so bored and decided to hand out stuff animals to paying customers. I guess he got the memo of M.J. and I coming here together. M.J. had his left arm around my shoulder as we tried picking one out. â??I donâ??t knowâ?¦.â? I loved all of them! â??What about Pebbles and Bam-Bam. That kind of describes our relationship.â? I look at him and we laugh. â??What, no Minnie and Mickey?â? â??Naw, Iâ??m more of a tyrant like Bam-Bam, and Pebbles keep me grounded.â? Since he picked it out, I chose her. Then he kissed my cheek. M.J. went to the bathroom, and this guy I didnâ??t know kept hanging around too close to me. â??Excuse me.â? â??Maâ??am, I just want know you. Donâ??t be harsh.â? â??Excuse me partner, but whatâ??s going on?â? He clamps his hand on the guyâ??s shoulder. â??Naw, no.â? I wriggle out the corner as he shoves the guy on the wall and have a few words with him. Now, I donâ??t like looking like a girl whoâ??s only hungry for material things, so I said I would pay for the food. Budget of course, but HE doesnâ??t know that. Attached to the arcade is a dining area, and I order us some pizza and I get him a Coke and I get a Sprite. â??You didnâ??t want any appetizers?â? â??I was fine. Did you want any?â? He looks at the menu. â??What do you like?â? â??Cheese sticks.â? I smile. He gets up and orders some. Within two minutes it seemed they were delivered. Seven of them were on the platter and when we got to the last one, we used inspiration from â??The Lady and the Trampâ? and kissed as we got to the center of the cheese stick. I laughed. M.J. sighs. â??I love your laugh. Your voice is so soft.â? â??I DO NOT have a soft voice!â? â??Lyric, itâ??s soft like feather, get over it.â? â??I guess.â? Then M.J. decides to play footsie with my toes. I take his hands. â??You donâ??t know what was going through my veins as I had to defend you from that blowhole, Lyr.â? â??Thatâ??s okay, and thank you.â? I lean over and kiss him. â??Iâ??m sorry about that too.â? On a jukebox, different slow songs kept playing, and a lot of them were kind of sensual. â??Also, what Nick did today wasâ??â? â??I already know. He told me about it before he did it.â? Oh, word?! Iâ??m surprised. â??I trust yâ??all.â? He takes the back of my head and our lips meet again. The pizza come along and throughout the meal, we keep catching each other looking over at one another. He smiles and takes my right leg and puts it on his lap. â??What made you do what you did to me last night?â? â??I think we both want it.â? I felt a rock, maybe a gravestone fall on my heart. â??Donâ??t worry. Youâ??re my â??4-letter-wordâ??. Itâ??d be perfect between us.â? I slide in my seat, which Iâ??m glad he noticed. I donâ??t want this on his mind right now. â??M.J. Iâ??m not ready, so donâ??t talk like that.â? He looks in my eyes. â??Alright.â? And then he only rubs my ankle with the leg thatâ??s in his chair. â??I just love being that close to you. I love your reactions.â? Before you know it, the next line will be â??I love you.â? Luckily it wasnâ??t. M.J. gets us some ice cream, and we stand against the windowsill as we eat it. â??Well, I donâ??t knowâ?¦I just felt like I wanted be around you and see what you were about.â? â??Like Iâ??ve said before, I just wanted to get to know you. Iâ??d never thought weâ??d get this far.â? He kissed me, but as I looked confused, he said he meant on a personal level. Though I was shy about it, M.J. danced with me to the jukebox. â??I also got you something, but Iâ??ve been putting it on hold.â? â??What is it?â? He gets me a rose from behind his back. â??I forgot the damn thing last night, but here it is.â? I take it and smile at it. â??Thank you.â? And kissed him. Around five-thirty, M.J. happens to look out the window in the arcade portion of the building. â??Yo, I see a black limo.â? Canâ??t beâ?¦Michael? I walk over there with him. The limo swerves into the parking lot and I see Dad and Michael get out. â??Lyric, I need to get you early.â? I wanted to ask him what was going on, but of course I nodded. â??Mr. Swan, may I have a minute with you?â? â??This isnâ??t the time, M.J.â? I get my things. â??Are you going to be alright why youâ??re still waiting here?â? â??Yes sir.â? â??Your father shouldnâ??t be long. I called him before I left the house.â? â??Thank you.â? Dad puts his hands in his pockets and nods. â??Well Iâ??ll see you.â? M.J. tells me. He puts his left arm over my shoulder and kisses my cheek as I slip my fingers in his as I walk away. â??Dad, whatâ??s wrong?â? â??Itâ??s a surprise, honey.â? So I sit there as weâ??re not saying anything. Iâ??m sitting next to Michael as Dad is sitting near the limoâ??s door. After we FINALLY get to where weâ??re going, the limo stops, and I get out and see weâ??re at the airport. $%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$% This is gonna get even more interesting, and I hope to make your head spin :), Aariyan.
