For about an hour Elvis and his puppets sit around and talk, joking and kidding. His friends didn't seem as bad as I thought, but I felt a little uncomfortable. Elvis had put his arm behind me on the back of the couch. Smooth, I thought to myself sarcastically. Elvis could tell that I was uncomfortable though, and sent his puppets off outside to run errands. "You alright Kim?" he looked straight into my eyes. "Yeah, fine. Are you okay?" I laugh. He smiles, "Yeah, I am really good. I guess that accident seemed to take a course of it's own, huh?" he chuckles to himself. "Suppose so.... how do you do it? All the girls? You clearly can't go out, you just stay in the whole time?" I ask quietly. "Yeah, I have today off but I can't even go out to enjoy it. I mean I love them, I wouldn't be anything without them, but sometimes I wish I could just walk out there and no one would have a clue it was me" He looks down in sadness. I felt bad for him, I could tell he truly just wanted a day of fun. Then it hit me. "Elvis...What would you say if I could make that happen?" a big grin spreads across my face. "What'd you have in mind?" he looks concerned. "A little touch up here and there, a wig, and you would be good to go!" I start getting really excited. "I don't know, don't think it would work..." He looks back down and runs his fingers through his hair. "It will, trust me. In Texas I am pretty big, I have had to do it a couple times" I tell him. He looks back up at me. "Well don't have much to lose" he laughs whole-heartedly. "Great!"

        After some work, and getting his puppets to get a wig for him, he looks...well, different. "E! YOU LOOK LIKE A PREDATOR!" his friend howls out and they all start cracking up. "Aw, I don't know Kim. I don't wanna look like a weirdo" he says, getting shy. "Oh stop, this is the only way, besides you could pull some good pranks with this!" I beam. He looks up and his eyes light up. "Pranks?" he says as a wicked smile goes across his face. "Yes, pranks, and more pranks!" I squeal. "See ya later boys, I am having a fantastic day off!" he calls back as we start leaving from the back of the building. "Okay, we need a name for you...What do you want it to be?" I ask him as we walk to his car. "Well.. what about John Doe?" He bellows out laughing. "Don't you think that's a bit obvious? How about Johnny Day?" I say with a smirk. "Sounds fine to me" he says as he opens the car door for me. I slide in and he gets in a second later. I couldn't believe I was spending the day with Elvis Presley. I mean it wasn't that he was Elvis Presley, but it was. I for so long, thought I hated him. Here I was though, in a car with him, and we were spending the day together. First we went to the beach and rented some skis. We took off his disguise beforehand so he wouldn't ruin it. After skiiing we went swimming out where no one was. Elvis went under water and I couldn't see him. "Elvis...? This isn't funny!" I spin around to find him. "Okay, you got me! I don't know where you are..." I say, feeling completely stupid because he obviously wouldn't be able to hear me if he was underwater. Then out of nowhere while I am thinking, "BOO!" He hollers up from behind me. "AHH!" I scream and turn around to see him laughing so hard he is crying. "You jerk! I'll get back at you for that!!" I yell as I swim up to him and try to hit his arm. "Ow! No! Not the face, it's too pretty!" He laughs out again. "I hate you!!" I shout at him and turn around and swim away. "Oh no you don't", he swims up behind me and turns me towards him by my waist. "Don't hate me" he says as he gazes at my lips. I knew exactly what was on his mind, and he was still holding me by the waist. "Fine, I don't hate you. Although I don't think I can say I like you" I grin. He pulls me closer to him and guides my arms up around his neck, "could I make you like me?" he teases. "I don't know, can you?" I slyly ask. Then he goes in for the kill. He kisses me and our full lips meet, it feels like burning fire, but it's wonderful. He pulls back and admires me. "What is it?" I say self-conciously, looking around. "Nothing, your perfect" he says in a hushed voice. "That's an exaggeration, but thank you" I look down. "We should get out of the water before we turn into wrinkly old people" he gleams. As we walk back up on to the sand, I remember that we didn't put his disguise back on. My face pales, because I know this could be bad. I whisper and lean close to him, "John....". He immediantly understands and we start running for his car, hoping no one will notice. We make it to his car but by the time were in, girls are surrounding the car and we can't move. "What do we do?!" I holler over their screeches. "I guess I gotta sign their autographs one by one, maybe they'll move afterwards" He says as he opens his car door. He signs at least one hundred girls autographs, thinning out the crowd. He finally gets back in and were able to speed off back to his hotel. We run in and lock the door behind us. "Wow, that was crazy!" I beam, looking up at him. "Well I better get going back home, I am sure my friends are worried about me" I quietly say. "I had more fun than I have in a while Kim, that's because of you" He smiles down at me. "Well, I try" I whisper. "Tell me I can see you again, and not by accident" he takes my hand and holds it to his chest. "Please" he practically whispers. I didn't know. I really didn't want to be just another girl, besides if he was expecting me to give myself to him he was all wrong. "Oh, I don't know Elvis..." I look up at him, his eyes pleading me. "I don't beg Kimberly, but I am begging you" he says. "Okay, sure, but what are we gonna do? There is no way we can pull what we did today again" I tell him. "I have an idea, come by later tomorrow night, you'll see" He smiles and kisses my hand. "Surprises aren't really my thing.." I grin. "This one will be" he leans close to me and gives me a long kiss. His hands go down to my waist and he wraps his arms around me. I throw my arms around his neck and let him kiss me for as long as he pleases. It's not like I wasn't enjoying it. He comes up for air, "See you tomorrow honey, I can't wait" he kisses me on the cheek. "Yeah, see you then" I open the door and walk out.

        I meet up with Ang, Mary and Stace back at the complex. I decide I need to tell them about Elvis, being that I was going over there tomorrow night. "YOU WHAT?!?!" Stace shrieks. "HOW?! WHEN!?" Ang flips. "WHERE?!" Mary shrills. "I will tell you tomorrow, I am too tired tonight" I smile and fall back on my bed. I was in heaven, I actually think I had feelings for him. FInally after convincing them I would do a tell all tomorrow they leave my room, and I am left to do nothing but dream.
