Doctor Who

Sunday, May 19, 2013

I awoke to a crash this morning. I should have known better than to think that I would have one day free of chaos, especially seeing I had the boys out after midnight last night. I had changed my plans last minute after the show and decided to go to the cast party. It ended up being the boys, Lizzy, Cloud and Zack, Yuffie, Reno and their boys, Marceline with her two boys and myself as well as the shows director and a few of the cast. The whole party was about twenty total.

But alas my boys’ are a walking disaster zone and so up I got to deal with the damage. I walked across the hall to there room and found the bunk beds collapsed.

“What happened,” I asked holding back a yawn.

“Loz called me stupid,” Kadaj yelled.

“I did not,” Loz yelled back.

“I’m not dealing with this first thing out of bed! Yazoo,” I demanded.

“Loz and Kadaj were arguing about something, Kadaj threw something at Loz and he jumped up on the bunks after Kadaj and well…” He looked over at the bunk beds.

“Kadaj started it,” Loz protested.

I just shook my head. I was still too tired to deal with whatever issue they were having this morning. I turned away and headed downstairs. Determined to have a decent nights sleep, I made Sephiroth sleep downstairs on the couch.

“Sephy,” I called walking into the living room.

“What,” I groaned from under the covers.

“Get up and deal with your sons, I can’t.”

“Why?”

“Because there your sons,” I replied, “And they broke the bunk beds and I haven’t had any caffeine yet so deal with it.”

Sephy glared at me. He slowly got up off the couch and made his way upstairs. I couldn’t help but think how cute he looked with his ears folded back in defeat, dragging his tail along as he made his way upstairs… which reminded me I had to get up with Isdela about changing him back.

I made my way into the kitchen to find something to eat and some Mountain Dew. I could already tell I was going to need a lot of caffeine to make it though the day. Not just to deal with the boys, but I had an awards thing to go to tonight for a local theater group I worked with.

‘Great,’ I thought, ‘Just how I wanted to spend the day.’

I decided on some Lucky Charms for breakfast, poured my glass of Mountain Dew and made my way back to the living room to catch last night’s episode of Doctor Who. I was at least going to have some enjoyment today.

“Mommy,” I heard. I turned to see Yazoo climbing up on the couch next to me. “Can I watch TV with you? Daddy, Loz and Kadaj are giving me a headache.”

I smile at my middle son and hand him my bowl of cereal. “Of course you can Yaz,” I say getting up to make myself another bowl. “Be right back.” It was nice that at least one of my kids wasn’t a complete psycho… although; he had masterminded a few of their schemes. After I made myself another bowl and poured some orange juice for Yazoo I made my way back to living room and started the episode.

That turned out to be a bad idea as both Yazoo and I spent most of the episode in tears and the cliffhanger left me so mad I about flipped the coffee table. The only thing that stopped me was my poor boys sobbing.

“What in Gaia is wrong with the two of you,” Sephiroth asked. I hadn’t even noticed he had come into the room… or when for that matter.

“The Doctor… and the mean man… and then… Clara… and… AHHHHHHHH!”

Sephiroth just looked at Yazoo like he had two heads. “What… Doctor Who,” he asked.

“Don’t pick on him just cuz you don’t understand,” I snapped though my tears. I tossed one of the small couch pillows at him and took Yazoo into my arms.

“Your both strange,” he retorted putting the pillow back.

“Don’t listen to him baby,” I whisper to Yazoo, “Mommy understands.”

“What’s wrong with him,” Kadaj asked.

“Oh man,” I heard Loz cry, “You’ve already watched it.”

“Watched what,” Kadaj asked.

“Last night’s Doctor Who,” Loz responded.

“No way! Mommy! We wanted to watch it with you,” Kadaj whined. “Start it over Loz.”

“AHHHHHHHH!” I pulled Yazoo closer to me and braced myself for two more traumatized children. I heard a loud sigh come from the kitchen and sent an angry stare in Sephiroth’s direction. I was going to be a proper nerd mother weather he liked it or not.

“You big loser,” Kadaj yelled though his own tears at the TV when the show was over again. “How could you?!”

“So… Is… That… The…” Loz said though his sobs.

“I don’t know love,” I responded.

“He better not be,” Kadaj cried, “I don’t like him!”

“Your all giving me a headache,” Sephiroth said from the breakfast room.

“Shut Up,” we all yelled at him.

He glared at us, ears folded back. I knew he was trying to be intimidating, but he looked just too darn cute! I started laughing, which got the kids laughing, which just made Sephiroth madder… but I could care less. I was starting to like this punishment.

“Did you ever ask you stupid sister and her childish friend when they were coming to fix this,” He asked pointing to his ears.

“I don’t know,” I sighed, “We ended up going out after the show instead of going to hang with them.”

“It was fun,” Kadaj interjected. “Axel blew bubbles with and old CD.”

It amused me how just two days ago, Kadaj had left Axel bloody for calling him a princess, but Axel plays with fire and their best friends. Now surprising, but highly amusing.

“Yeah and little Zexion said his first word,” Loz continued.

“Joy,” Sephiroth said unenthusiastically. Kadaj just stuck his tongue out at his father.

“I’ll call Aranel today and ask okay,” I sighed. “Now if you’ll all excuse me. I have to go decided what I’m wearing to his awards thing tonight.”

“What awards thing mommy,” Yazoo asked.

“Can we go,” Loz asked.

“Yeah sure,” I said, “You coming too Sephy? Free Food…”

“There’s food here,” He grumbled.

“Should I make you some Tuna then,” I asked. His ears perked up and I laughed. “Guess that’s a yes. What do you say boys? Tuna sound good for lunch.”

They all shook there heads yes and ran into the kitchen. I got up and followed. As I passed by Sephy I reached up and scratched behind his ear. He actually started to purr. The boys laughed at the sight, which caused Sephiroth to fold his ears back again. I could live a few more days with Sephiroth the Neko, he just has to sleep on the couch.
