Clark "Mouth" Deveraux/Male OC - Goonies Never Say Die!

Clark "Mouth" Devereaux/Male OC

"Turn that TV off, son! I can't hear myself think," Mouth's dad said, grumbling to himself. Anthony glanced up from his comic book to see Mouth turn the TV off. His gaze drifted outside the window when the sirens and car chase sound effects continued. Mouth smacked the TV before shrugging and walking back.

Anthony pointed outside loosely, but the cars had turned a corner and the chase was gone. Mouth peered out the window anyways, turning back to Anthony with a frown as he said, "Yeah, right, dad."

Mouth perched himself up on the counter, looking into the sink. His dad fiddled with something, "The water goin' down, son?"

"Uh... no," Mouth replied with a confused frown.

Mr. Deveraux fiddled with something else, "Goin' down now?"

Before Mouth has a chance to reply, water shot up into his face and he sputtered in surprise. His dad fiddled with the same bolt and the water stopped, slowly chugging down the drain.

Mouth got off the sink, wiping his face dry.

Mr. Deveraux sat back to admire his work, "Well... that's all I needed you for, son. Go ahead to Mikey's."

"Cool, see ya, dad," Mouth switched his coat, grabbing Anthony's sleeve, "Let's go, Tony."

"Whoah!"

The bike ride to Mike's house was short the normal way, but Mouth always insisted on going the long way when he was with Anthony, something the latter would never get.

"So..." Mouth started, trying to break the silence.

"So..." Anthony mimicked with a small grin.

"Whaddya wanna do tonight?" Mouth questioned, steering his bike dangerously close to Anthony's. He swerved out of the way with a shout.

"Jeez, Mouth, can't get enough of me, huh?" Anthony joked, missing the blush that crept across Mouth's cheeks.

"Whatever!"

"We could watch a flick at mine? I got the new episode on tape!" Anthony announced proudly, smiling at Mouth.

"You're amazing!" Mouth laughed before he could stop himself, blush deepening.

"Oh... thanks," Anthony said with a blush.

They rode in silence for a bit longer before they reached Mikey's house, hurrying up the steps to knock at the door. Mouth dug for his hand into his pocket, searching each one when he couldn't find what he was looking for.

Anthony reached into his jacket pocket, revealing his comb.

Mouth snatched it up, "Gimmie that!"

Anthony grinned, chuckling. They saw Brand peer around the corner before he turned away. Then they saw Mikey trudge down the hallway to open the door for them. As Mikey let them in, Mouth was quick to swipe a Pepsi from their fridge, following Mikey and Anthony into the living room.

"Hey, Meekey," Mouth started, putting his foot up onto the table so he could rest his arm on it, "Yo Mikey. Eh, Mikey, seen Adrian? Hey guys, what's goin' down?"

"Get your foot off the table, Mouth," Brand said, using some sort of stretching workout tool.
