14 (and 1/2) Gays, A Yellow Ford, And One Epic Road Trip

"Well, at least I'm not going to get arrested for driving minors around Vegas!"

(Minami's POV)

  We soon arrived at the mall, which was so big.
   Like, so big.

   We had a very rough time deciding where to go first. "Look, I'm not saying the M'n'M place was half my reason for bringing him here, but it kinda was." I overheard Pidge tell their sister Rei.

  "Yeah, but, however, why not the carousel??" Minnie asked, a little over ecstatic.

   "Or the Build-a-Bear!" Rei inputted.

(Look, I did a lot of research on Vegas and did a lot of math, but I'm a point where I do not care if this mall has a freaking Build-a-Bear, it does now.)

  "Wait... You're right!" Pidge exclaimed, the three now walking back over to me, having previously been standing a few feet away from me to 'discuss things' as they put it.

Oh well.

  The 4'11 sinnabun looked up at me, something I was not very used to, and stated, "We're going to go to the Build-a-Bear! You are going to have the best time, like, ever, right?"

Wait. Hold up. I just realised. This is legit a middle school kid. Like. 8th or 7th grade. And I'm driving them around Vegas. To weird malls, then to Taco Bell.

I smelt a lawsuit.

"Pardon me for asking, uh, Pidge, but where are your parents?" I asked, way too awkward for a some teen.

   "Oh. I was waiting for you to ask that. Well, you've already met them! Mum called me tactless, but Mom just thought it 'cause she's kinda quiet but she reads the weirdest things like dude pay attention and don't read anything she gives you. I have made a mistake once too many. And these are my sisters, sorta. Mom and Mum are kinda young, but they took us in as soon as they legally could, so like 20, and that was about a summer ago, and jeez, it's only been a part of a year, but it feels like forever, y'know?" They explained quite quickly, but I caught up with the fast, city like accent and way of speech.

"That makes sense. Well, at least I'm not going to get arrested for driving minors around Vegas!" I exclaimed, happy about the fact that the crew isn't going to have to bail me out from jail, and the fact that these adventures could continue.

  "Right! Off to stuffed animals we go!" Minnie excitedly shouted. "Yay!!" Rei and Pidge cheered, as we raced to the place were I would make the cutest little teddy bear freaking ever.

*******

  "I'm not saying Frank sucks, I'm just insisting that Peri here is just cooler!" Pidge argued with their sister in the food court eating a pizza from Sbarro's, who was angrily shaking her head at the prospect of her Canadian themed, complete with a plaid scarf and hat, both embedded with a maple leaf,  bear somehow be lesser than her sibling's mint green and brown furred bear, taking a stereotypical elementary punk look, a black 'leather' jacket covering a purple spotted shirt and what appeared to be attempted skinny jeans made for the bear, a little brown tail poofing from the back, complete with tiny bright red Converse shoes.

Rei started writing something on her napkin.
   "Whatcha doing?" Min asked, leaning over to see what she was writing, the, collapsing into a fit of giggles when she saw, then returning to eat sushi with her bear, darkly clad with a forest green cape, black pants, and a sword made of a broken bendy straw.

   I suddenly turned my head at the arguing siblings when Rei shouted, "Your bear looks like it keeps an active MySpace account under this name!"

She held up her written on napkin, which read, 'xXcUtIEbeARrAWrXDXx'.

The shorter of the two gasped loudly. "How dare you? Do I have to remind you of yours?" Rei flushed. "N-nope! But at least admit, Peri and Frank are equal in total awesomeness!" She stated, attempting to find the middle ground in this argument.
