Phriends Against Physics

Chapter 1

"Hey Jimmy?" Foamy called from the bathroom as she was just finishing clipping her toenails. Foamy was in college now, where she was a distance runner at Some University in New York. Because SU was such a prestigious distance running program, Foamy often found herself losing toenails or the toenails would just become weird shapes. As a result, the Foam often had to clip them and sort of reshape them. It was gross and Jimmy couldn't stand to look at it. "Yes?" Jimmy called out from far away, where he was hiding his face in the comforter of their cozy bed. "Remember when you accidentally gave my phone number to Milo Ventimiglia?" she asked, striding back out into the bedroom. Her husband looked up from the comforter, sighed out of relief that his wife was done doing her toenail business and said, "Yeah, of course! We actually just talked about that last time I interviewed him a few weeks ago." Foamy sat down on the bed next to Jimmy and slipped on some socks. "Oh, that's funny! I'll have to watch that one of these days. I've just been so busy with school and running that I haven't really watched the show much lately! I'm the worst wife ever!" Foamy began to cry, so Jimmy comforted his wife by taking her Tiger Tail roller and rolling it up and down her back. That was her favorite. "Foamy, calm down! You're so tense! So, why are you asking about me giving Milo your number? Did he call you? Did he hit on you?! Oh man, I swear, next time he comes on the show, I'm making him touch a spider!" Foamy shuddered at the mention of the s-word. "Woah, woah, woah! Calm down, Jimmy! He did call me, not to hit on me, though..." Foamy sighed and exaggerated her sadness about not being hit on by Milo Ventimiglia. Jimmy laughed and pretended to whack Foamy with the roller. She giggled and sat up. "Anyway, he just called me earlier today and said he needed my help with something." Curious, Jimmy raised an eyebrow. "What does this mans want with my hot young wife?" Foamy giggled and replied, "I'm not sure exactly, he was pretty vague with his message. I was on my long run this morning when he called and I just now saw it and listened to it. It sounded pretty important, too, but I had to do toenail maintenance first." Jimmy cringed hard at the mention of toenail maintenance. "Agh, you disgust me sometimes. But on the other hand, you are hot and young. And I love you!" Jimmy playfully tickled his wife's tummy and she scream-giggled. "Okay, okay, I need you to be serious and listen to this message with me!" Jimmy did one last tickle and then got serious. Foamy pressed play and the two lovebirds listened to the voicemail. "Hey, Foamy! It's Milo. I don't know if you remember, but a few years back, Jimmy accidentally gave me his wife's phone number, and you are Foamy, Jimmy's wife. Anyway, I'm just calling because I need your help. I don't really want to discuss this over the phone, we might get caught. Can I come over to talk to you and Jimmy? I can be in New York by tomorrow. Thanks!"
