Chapt. 24

Basically POV
     Our appointment lasted a few hours, but it did really help 407.  He could make out sentences without stuttering for the most part.  Sometimes he would skip over the small words in sentences, but you could make out what he was trying to say.  An alarm went off and Dr. Minx exused us.  I walked to the front desk and made another appointment in a week.  I then helped 407 to the truck.  He had a huge grin on his face and look ecstatic. 
     "What's making you so happy?"
     "I speak better than I did.   Makes me happy," he said without stuttering at all.  I smiled at him and drove down the road to the base.  "Don't you think good?"
     "Yes I think it's great.  You have another appointment in a week."  He smiled and nodded his head.  He was practically jumping in his seat when we got back to the base.  We got out of the car and walked inside.  407 had his hand in mine and was swinging it back and forth.  I ignored it as we walked in the living room and all the guys looked us.  
     "How did it go?" Vanoss asked.  I motioned for 407 to answer his question. 
     "Went good.  Speak better," he said and I saw some of the guys cringed at his grammar, but didn't say anything. 
     "Well That's good.  Basically did you make another appointment?"
     "Yeah it's the same time next week," I answered walking in the kitchen with 407.  I made us both a sandwich and went back to the living room.  The gang was of course playing Mario kart.  I rolled my eyes and sat on the floor with 407 next to me.  We started to eat the sandwiches and Ohm raged a ton.  He was giving up and Bryce asked to play.  Ohm gave the controller to him and sat back to watch.  Bryce didn't entirely know how to play so at the start of the race he crashed a lot, but he soon got the hang of it and started to actually beat some of the people.  It was a large map and by the end of it Bryce had won.  The gang playing hadn't noticed Bryce was playing yet so they jokes about Ohm finally getting good.  I started to laugh because of their ignorance of who was playing.  Ohm was trying not let out a laugh to bring attention to him and Bryce and ruin the fun of it.  They started the next race and Bryce won again.  Some of the gang was getting suspicious, but still didn't comprehend that Bryce was playing.  The next race was started and at the end Bryce had claimed first.  Some of the gang were raging from the losses and asking Ohm how he got so good.  Finally Ohm couldn't contain his laughter and burst into it.  His head went back as he chuckled like a madman.  The gang gave him weird looks and finally I couldn't control myself.  I joined in on the laughing party and the gang just gave us confused looks. 
     "You guys are so oblivious to stuff," I managed to get out from all the laughing I was doing.  
     "What do you mean?" Smitty asked sitting up and looking at me.
    "I wasn't playing Bryce was," Ohm said howling with laughter.  The gang's eyes went wide and looked at Bryce who indeed had the controller in his hands. 
     "I don't believe you," Wildcat said ignorantly. 
     "Start up a race and watch," Ohm retorted. 
     "Fine." Wildcat started another race and watched as Bryce took first once again.  Wildcat had a shocked look on his face.  "How did you learn how to play?"
     "By watching you guys play it everyday," Bryce answered. 
     "You're amazing at it." Bryce's face went bright red and he looked down. 
     "Aww, is little Brycey embarrassed," Ohm cooed.  Bryce's face went even more red at that.  The guys started to laugh at him.   I just rolled my eyes and cuddled 407 more. 
     "Alright I have somethings to say so go to the meeting room in five minutes," Vanoss said getting up and turning off the game.  He then walked out of the room and I was wondering what things he's going to say.
