"My thing isn't gonna involve unnecessary sweating," he shot back, patting his pockets with the palms of his hands. "Shit, any clue where my phone is?"
"My thing isn't gonna involve unnecessary sweating," he shot back, patting his pockets with the palms of his hands. "Shit, any clue where my phone is?"
"Mine's usually in my back pocket when I can't find it, or my bra, but…" She scrunched her nose in thought, before pulling out her own phone. "Try calling it."
"I can't unlock your phone,smart one," he said, taking it. "I don't even know your password."
"Well I was going to put it in…." She said, rolling her eyes. "This week it's zodiac, all low caps."
"'Week?'" he repeated, tying the word into the phone. "You change your password every week?"
"Of course?" She furrowed her brows, looking at him like it was the most obvious thing ever.
He shook his head, typing his phone's number into the dialer from memory. "Smart people, I swear…"
"Aaaww, you think I'm smart~" She cooed teasingly, poking his cheek, before returning to digging through her pockets. "I have a habit of misplacing my phone. So I change the password each week to protect it."
He shook his head in response, tossing it back to her as the sound of a ring tone reverberated around the tiny room. A 1 minute search produced it from the cushions of the fold-out couch. "Alright, are we ready to go now?"
"I don't know how we didn't figure that." She said, making a face as she tucked her phone away. "Of course it was in the cushions."
"Yeah, it was a bit obvious." He slid his phone into the right pocket of the shorts, cracking his knuckles. "I'm probably not gonna ride any rides, you know."
"Well that's no fun." She huffed, placing her hands on her hips. "Not even one?"
"I'm terrified of heights," he admitted, rubbing his stomach. "And I don't really like the feeling in your gut, either."
"There goes my ferris wheel idea." She said, making a face, before turning towards the door. "We'll play the games, then. And see if there are any low rides."
"I'll go to town on some kiddie rides," he joked with a grin, reaching around her to open the door for her. "Atleast I can hold the cotton candy while I'm on them."
She shot him a wink in thanks, slipping out of the apartment. "I wonder if they've got anything like the teacups. Those are always fun."
"Last time I was on one, I spun it so fast it came off its bearings," he admitted, shutting the door behind him as he walked out after her. "Nearly had to pay for it until I flashed Amity."
He didn't even notice that he started calling his symbiote Amity.
She snorted, shaking her head. "We'll try to avoid destroying the rides. And threatening the ride workers."
Klaus grinned in response. "Should I just weird them out and speak German the whole time?" he asked.
"We'll save that for a back up plan. I'm still learning German, not fluent." Peggy said, nudging him with her hip.
"Slacker," he said, shoulder-bumping her back. "I'd have expected you to know Upper Saxon German by heart two weeks ago."
"You expect too much of a chronic procrastinator." She huffed, fighting a grin. "Learning a language takes time, Klaus."
"I learned two at the same time, woman," he said as they reached the main elevator in his apartment building.
"And how old were you?" She asked, raising an eyebrow as she pressed the button for the elevator. "'Cause you know, it's easier to learn a language the younger you are."
He tilted his head, genuinely thinking about it. "Well, Mom always spoke German with me so that's what I spoke at home. English….I probably became, like, 100% fluent at 12, 13, maybe?"
