Wishful Thinking/Some Wishful Thinking
From Create Your Own Story
"Well, that's easy," Garreth says, "I'd get her to do the damn lab assignment!"
"Oh, come on!" Ginger says, "If you were to have full control over what Sherry did, all you'd have her do is your freaking homework?!"
"Well... I'd have her apologize for the way she's been treating me all year!" Garreth says, beginning to imagine the possibilities, "Yeah, heheh, and she'd be like 'Oh, Gar...I'm so sorry for being so mean to you all semester... let me kiss and make it up to you...' like that would ever happen...pfft... maybe I'll have her do it wearing a two piece string bikini while I'm at it... oh and I'd have her do a little dance for me... one of those sexy tushy shaking dances..."
"Don't forget to have her kneel before you and call you master." Ginger adds.
"Or maybe you'd rather her be the master?" you pitch in.
"What?! No... you girls and your dirty minds!" He says. You all laugh. "I'd be the master. I should just go straight up to her and demand she do her part of the work."
"That'a boy! You get what's yours!" you say.
"What's keeping you, Gar? Pony up and be the boss!" Ginger urges.
"You know what? Yeah! I'm gonna! I'm tired of being pushed around just because I'm a nice guy! No more of that!" he says, confidence filling him up. Gar stands up and turns to Sherry. Sherry looks up and they make eye contact. Garreth smiles and waves politely. Sherry simply nods and goes back to her mirror. Gar turns around and slinks down in defeat.
"Oh my gawd! You're such a wuss!" Ginger says, all disappointed. "This is why people always take advantage of you, Gar!"
"I'm not a wuss... I just need to pick my battles... " Gar explains. "I mean, what could she possibly get done in two days anyways? I pretty much did the work already. I never really expected her to contribute much. So it's not like she NEEDS to get it done. My grades won't be affected."
"Selena, fix him!" Ginger pleads.
"Woah no, I don't want a repeat of what happened with Beth." you reply.
"Huh? What happened with Beth?" Gar asks.
"Nothing. Look, either you go over there and demand Sherry do her share of the work, or I will personally stomp a whole up your ass!" Ginger warns.
"Alright alright! Whatever you say." Garreth says. He quickly changes his demeanor to become more authoritative. "I'll man up and tell her what's what!" Garreth stands up again. He looks towards Sherry and begins to sit down again.
"Garreetthhhh....." Ginger seethes. Garreth hops to it and walks over to Sherry. "Sheesh, doing that guy a favor is like pulling teeth!" she says to you. "You got those wishes set up, right?"
"Of course..." you say as you listen in on the couple.
"... just do your part of the work..." Garreth finishes.
Sherry thinks to herself and a realization comes over her. She looks back at Garreth as if seeing him clearly for the first time. She takes his hand and says, "Oh, Gar...I'm so sorry for being so mean to you all semester... let me kiss and make it up to you..."
Gar is absolutely shocked. He looks back at you guys, spooked at Sherry's words. He is even more thrown over by the kiss on the cheek. "Come on, sweetie, I've got a lot more making up to do." She leads him off and the three of you look at one another.
"So... shall we follow?" Ginger asks.
"I don't know. I'm kind of curious what Beth is up to right about now." you say, "What do you think, Amina?"
"Well..." Amina thinks...
