Pout.
As he returned from this thought, Kate had finished the last wall and was testing it just as he would do. It looked good, but just for his own satisfaction he gave it a going over too. Spike wasn't totally trusting of things he couldn't see at times. Magic invisible glue as opposed to hammer and nails came under that category. Especially when he had to look after a girl.
"'s feeling good," he said, as his partner affixed the handle in place. "I've got good vibes." And he'd be a LOT more careful than those silly peeps who'd crashed.
Was it driving time yet?
He frowned. Why was she fiddling with jewellery? It was race! And though they weren't first, and the post had been moved...they had a good cart and shouldn't be faffing around with jewellery!
Oh, she was decorating it? Well that was kinda cool. And jangly. They now had a jingly-jangly kind of cart. His frown curled upwards in to a smile. "Nice finishing touch," he said with a nod. Yep, they were aaaaaall done.
In which case, they should get moving.
Spike stepped to the side, and graciously swept his arm over to Kate to use as a support. "Your carriage, I mean, cart, awaits, Miss Osmium." See, he could be all gentlemanly when he wanted to be.
"Feeling comfortable?" he asked, taking hold of the handle. "Let's go!"
Why, yes, Spike, of course the cart was feeling good. Did he not trust her? Unless he really wanted to check it all out by himself, she couldn't blame him for that. And if he was making sure that nothing would happen to her, then he could check out the cart all he wanted because that was definitely and truly...adorable.
Kate couldn't help but smile again at his mention of good vibes. Considering a couple groups had already meet the finish line then he could only mean that their cart felt like a good one. Again, YES, they built a very good one, indeed. "Thanks!" she said, when he commented on the little finishing touches. Kate was glad to have a few necklaces off her neck truth be told.
OMG! That was cute! Heh. Her carriage. She winked at him before getting on the cart, "Thanks, Mr. Hutchinson." Fun stuff, this whole thing was.
For a moment there, she wasn't completely certain as to what his question actually meant. Was she feeling comfortable? Or was he asking himself if he was comfortable? Was he asking the handle? Or was he asking her if she was comfortable with him pulling the cart? Since they've settled a long time ago that he'll be doing the pulling, and he'd already pointed out where the handle felt comfortable...then the question was directed at her, "I am!" as comfortable as one might be in this situation.
AND OFF THEY WENT!
Bounces and sparkles. Between the cart she firmly had a grip on, and Spike's curls...they could certainly catch the attention as fortune-tellers. DEFINITELY! They should get extra points for it.
And this was fun. The wind on her face as Spike pulled the cart was good, too. Until it suddenly stopped, because they'd reached the finish line. And the Professor standing there too. "We did it, Spike!" she beamed at him. |
