“Don’t forget about the part where she’d remind him that she couldn’t possibly forget she had a baby because she pushed it out of her vagina,” Jacque added.
Sally nodded. “She’d mention that at least twice, probably more though.”
“I CAN ATTACK WHO EVER I WANT TO,” Jen snarled. “You don’t tell me when to attack someone.”
“I feel like we should start singing. It’s my party…” Jacque started.
Sally picked up and finished for her. “I’ll cry if I want to.”
Jen’s head flew in their direction.
“Abort, abort,” Sally said, whispering frantically under her breath as she backed into Jacque.
“Or just distract,” Jacque muttered as she pointed at Decebel. “Remember, he just told you to calm down.”
Jen’s head turned back to Decebel. “BEING CALM IS FOR PUSSIES!”
“Oh snap, she used thePword.”
“Loudly. She used it very,veryloudly. Anyone not thinking thePword before will be now,” Sally said.
Jacque nodded. “I’m thinking it.”
“Me too.” Sally sighed.
“Not our fault,” Jacque said and then flinched as Jen slapped away the hand Decebel had been holding out to her, and yelled, “You’re ALL pussies!”
“Aaaaand she just keeps saying it, folks.”
“Should we leave? I feel like we should leave,” Sally asked as she crossed one arm in front of her and raised the other to rest her chin on her hand. Jacque took note and donned the same pose.
“We should. But we’re not,” Jacque whispered. “I’ve been bored out of my mind, and I think we deserve a show for good behavior.”
“True. We haven’t gotten ourselves into trouble in like … four days,” Sally agreed.
“Too bad we didn’t bring popcorn. It seems like we always forget the popcorn during moments like these,” Jacque said.
“I just told Costin to bring some,” Sally told her, holding her hand up, which Jacque then high-fived, quietly.
“YOU WERE THE ONE WHO TOLD ME TO GO.” Decebel’s raised voice caused Jacque and Sally to freeze.
“Claws are coming out in the Serbia pack mansion tonight,” said Sally.
“SINCE WHEN DID YOU START DOING WHAT I TELL YOU, B?”
Jacque held perfectly still and only her lips moved as she spoke. “On second thought, maybe we should get the kid and make a run for it? I’ve been dying to get some baby time, but I haven’t wanted to intrude.”
“Baby time would be fun. Intruding on Jen in her current state, though, not so much. So, yes, we should definitely take advantage of this opportunity,” Sally said, while giving a tiny sharp nod. They began moving slowly, shifting with the arguing couple until Jacque and Sally were at the opened door.
“Hurry,” Jacque said pushing Sally. “But hurry quietly.”
“Then stop talking,” Sally hissed, as they hurried into the suite.
“Good point.” Jacque picked up the sleeping infant while Sally grabbed two handfuls of the bags of breast milk from the freezer, snatched up the diaper bag and tossed the breast milk into it. They ran through to the bathroom, heading for the door to the hallway beyond Dec and Jen.
“Re-route your mate and the popcorn,” Jacque whispered.
“Way ahead of you, Red.” Sally smiled.
