" 'scuse me lady.....lady......LADY!!!!", yells a youthful voice
I groan. Someone is poking me with cold sticky fingers. I slowly open my eyes.
"Wha....What happened? My head feels like I've been drinking way too many........pink lemonades", I say, considering there's a little blonde person staring at me.
I'm surrounded by kids. Where did they come from? Are they mine? 'NO num nuts!' I think to myself 'How can they be yours when you've never even kissed a guy before?'
"Sowwy lady. My bwutha Jake hit you with his beastball" the little cherub says
"She means baseball. I'm Jake and I'm sorry" states a boy that looks about eleven. These are the cutest little people I have ever seen in my life. They both have the blondest heads and the bluest eyes. 'Whew! New York sure does know how to breed them' I think to myself.
"It's ok Thing One and Thing Two", I say
They look at me funny. 'Guess they've never heard of the cat in the hat.' I think.
The little one laughs, "We're not things. We're kids"
"Touche", I say
"Tissue? We don't have tissue...but our dad might! Hey DAD! This old lady needs some tissue!!!" Jake screams to someone.
'Did this kid just call me old? I'm 24 for Christ's sake!' I think.
I try and sit up but just then a pair of very nice looking male hands keep me in place.
"Whoa there", the masculine voice says "Take it easy. How many fingers am I holding up?"
This is the most beautiful man I have ever laid eyes on. He has the greenest eyes I have ever seen. I am swimming in them. 'Quick! I need to say something before he thinks I'm a mute or something!'
"You smell so good. I could sniff you all day" 'Did I just say that?! PLEASE tell me I did not just say that'
He laughs and it's the most beautiful sound. It's like thunder rolling across the hills.
"Um thank you?", he says.
Oh my goodness. I am so mortified.
