"We can just shop off the internet...." moaned Ace lazily, laying on Eli's bed. Eli sat on her pillows while Nick was sprawled out like a star on the lush carpet. Amy laid on her back, legs propped on the wall.  I sat in a rocking chair. Occansionally pushing myself back so I'd gently rock back and forth.

"NO! Because it would rob all the fun away!" protested Amy.  

"Interet is fun..." mumbled Ace, pouting and crossing his arms. He looked exactly like a little child wanting candy denied by his mother. 

I laughed. "It robs away the magic. If you shop on the internet then go to the ball in what you bought from the interent you wouldn't understand the whole concept and feel the magic."

"You guys know about internet?!" asked Nick, his face full of utter suprise.

"A little bit. Some people that like to venture outside the safetly of the kingdoms walls talk about it. We don't have it of course..."

"Must be boring there..." muttered Ace, still pouting.

"Not really. Lots of things to do to keep you busy."

"Really Ace?" asked Eli, 

"I'm just curios."

"Curiosity killed the cat." mumbled Amy.

Ace grinned. "But I'm not a cat. I'M A DOG!"

"Woof!" piped Nick.

"We read a ton. I usually am there to help the princess. running a kingdom is hard you know. Even working in one is hard. Never a boring moment."

"Nick and Eli would love it there." muttered Ace, his pout back. 

"We would." said Eli absentmindly, staring at nothing in paticular, picking at her nails. 

"You guys have a lot of books?"

"Two whole libraries."

Nick's eyes widened. "WHOAH! New goal in life... Live in that kingdoom and spend my days reading."

"And have no life and children and wife...." muttered Ace.

"Thats not my top thing to do in my life Ace."

"No one would want to be with you... Well except Eli..." he added, grinning. 

Eli blushed deeply and bowed her head and started picking at her quilt.

"Whats wrong dear?" I asked.

"Stomach hurts..."

"DAMMIT NICK! YOU HAD ONE JOB!" yelled Ace, his eyes twinkling. Nick looked up confused.

"Wha-" 

"YOU COULD'VE USED IT! YOU HAD ONE JOB!" Ace yelled again. Nick caught on.

"BUT WE HAD RUN OUT!"

"COULD'VE ASKED ME!"

I grinned and looked at Eli, her face was full of pure horror.

 "Oh no. No no non no no no!" she stammered.

"IT WAS TOO LATE!" yelled Nick, and turned onto his stomach and pretended to sob dramatically. 

"Save it for the judge." muttered Ace, still grinning. Amy was quietly rolling on the floor, silently laughing.

"My sotmac only hurts because i ran into the couch...." said Eli quielty.

"Oh I know dear." chuckled Ace, "I saw you."

Nick sat up. "ONLY I'M ALLOWED TO CALL HER DEAR!" he said loudly, getting up to go hug Eli protectivly, pouting.

She smiled weakly. "I think I disloadge everything in my stomach." she quielty mumbled, touching her stomach gently, then wincing.
