Welcome to Gaia! ::

Johnny thought for a moment. Aside from cleaning the house and cooking and all manner of housewifery, his schedule excluding school was rather open all the time. He smiled finally and gave Aubrey a thumbs-up. "Psh, that sounds great! I'm so excited - I'ma tell Alex all about this and he'll be so happy! An' then maybe I can get some nice workout clothes an'..."

The boy stood up and ran to Aubrey to give her a warm hug. "...it'll be so awesome! You're the best sen... nnerrr Aubrey ever! I wanna see if other people can train with us. Heck, maybe Alex'll want to." If anything, he could ask around the Negaverse and see if anything else was interested in learning Aikido. And on top of that, maybe someone in the Negaverse could recruit Aubrey to be a teacher! It'd be awesome! Surely he'd get bonus points for coming up with the idea, right? Negaverse Aikido Camp 2012 is go!

"But next time, I'ma bring you somethin' special. What's your favorite food? I'm a good cook so I'll make you somethin' to eat. Is that okay?"

"It'll be great, I promise. It'll be fantastic. I'll go look for more people at my school and maybe Alex knows a few people... we'll get a class going! An' I'll bring food an' we'll practice a couple nights a week! I'll see if maybe Alex can make flyers or somethin'... yeah, it'll be great!"

Johnny enthusiasm showed very plainly on his face. "I'll feed the class. It'll be good practice for me too! Aw man I'm so excited! I gotta tell Alex. He'll be so happy I'm learnin' stuff outside school!" The boy hopped from foot to foot for a moment before he spazzed and realized he had no idea what time it was or how long he'd been at the gym. He scrambled to pull the small watch out of his shorts pocket. 7:30.

"ACK. I told Alex I'd make dinner tonight! Oh man Aubrey, I'm sorry but I gotta go! But I'll get back to you real soon! Can you give me your number so I can call you and we can figure some stuff out? Umm... lemme see... I gotta have... oh duh my phone. Which is in my locket. Can you walk with me back there? I gotta go get my stuff."

If nothing else, Johnny was certainly a happy boy.
