1/015: Yellow, Orange and Blue. [Dated to early the 2nd day of Family reunion plot]

[wheatdos]

[Daytime was when GlaDOS and Wheatley finally came around, rowing to shore and crawling off of the boat that they had left themselves to float in through the night. Drowsily, Wheatley would help his spouse up and out, the two of them looking like a proper trainwreck...

And wheatley having some rather apparent and smeared black lipstick dappled all over his face...

[ GLaDOS stood on the shore, holding in a yawn. She had slept well... almost too well. Which could explain her reluctance to return to the gathering.

She attempted to smooth some of her messy hair down, with barely any success at all, before heaving a small sigh. ]

I look terrible, don't I. [ It wasn't even a question... ]

[wheatdos]

Whew... I uh...

[He shook his head, grinning.]

Could be worse. Could be much worse. Besides... you're on Vacation!

[There he goes, wrongly justifying things with vacation time again . He has yet to see the black lipstick marks, though. He was pale, so it only made them more obvious. Wheatley casually picks up GLaDOS in a hug, giving her another peck on the lips.]

[whatsinheeeere]

[[Watch out lovebirds! Your daughter is running to the both of you at full speed, and with no intentions of stopping.]]

Mommy? Daddy? Mommy? Daddy?
Where were you? Are you okay?
Did you know that people are looking for you?
What's on your face? You two look like you fought a bear, did you fight a bear???

[sawadeertoday]

[ Thankfully, GLaDOS catches on to this and as soon as she pecks him back, she lets go of him to catch their daughter, so she would barrel into her arms. ]

We're fine. [ she replied, before turning a little pink at the mention of people looking for them, and all of those questions after. ] And... no, we didn't fight a bear.

[wheatdos]

[At the sight of CC, Wheatley couldn't supress a grin. He too turns a light shade of blue when he is asked about his face, wiping it with his sleeve. Didn't do much, just pushed it around.]

Hello love!

[While she was in GLaDOS's arms, he gave his daughter a quick kiss on the forehead.]

...

[He shoots GLaDOS a look... as if to say you totally fought a bear... /wink wink.]

[whatsinheeeere]

[[CC jumps right into her mother's arms, and giggles when she gets a kiss from her father.]]

Why were you in a boat? Is that why no one could find you?
Oooh! Oooh! Mommy! Daddy! Can we play outside? Can we? Can we play in the sand?
Can we build sandcastles????

[sawadeertoday]

[ Have a blushing glare in return, Wheatley. First of all, you are not a bear, you are a stick. AN ATTRACTIVE ONE, BUT STILL A STICK...

GLaDOS made sure to hold her steady, always a little overwhelmed by all the questions, although she would propel through them as always. ]

Your father wanted to take me out on the boat for fun. And yes, that's why no one could find us.

[ She would glance at Wheatley after the other questions, before looking back to her daughter. She had a bit of a weakness when it came to CC. ]

Do you want to join us in making sandcastles? [ she would ask Wheatley. ]

[wheatdos]

Sandcastles! Sandcastles... those... those sound fun. Dd'love to.

[He nodded and put his hands in his pockets. The only thing that was better than being with GLaDOS, is being with CC and GLaDOS. His family.]

What do we need for those? Shovels... buckets... those-those- little flags...?

[whatsinheeeere]

Yayyyyyyyy!!

[[CC throws her hands up before she hugs her mother's neck. GLaDOS must have been good at this, CC is incredibly squirmy.]]

Can we do it now? Can we do it now?

[takethat]

[Guess who is an early riser and is already nearly to the lake for a morning stroll?



Phoenix, who has just run upon his brother and his sister-in-law in the most telling of states.





This face. Just this.]

[wheatdos]

...N-nick! Hello mate...!

[Wheatley says in the most innocent tone possible. The boy is not actually aware of the smeared makeup, don't tell him. Though, as he calls out to his brother, he is quick to button up the mismatched buttons that he gotten wrong...]

Uhh... wh-what are you doing here so early?

[sawadeertoday]

[ GLaDOS practically freezes up when she notices Phoenix, immediately trying to smooth down her hair with her hands and adjusting his labcoat on her, as though that would help any.

She also looks pretty bad, although thankfully, she doesn't have any make-up on her face... but imagining what conclusion her brother-in-law would come to made her face redden. ]

... Good... morning...

[takethat]

Morning.

I was just walking... collecting my thoughts... giving Miles some space because he's so grouchy in the mornings....











What are you two doing here?

[He waggles his eyebrows up and down at them both. Because honestly.]

[wheatdos]

[He awkwardly looks around...]

You know... observing our surroundings... kissing ti-

[He stops for a moment, closing his eyes and pressing a finger against his forehead, as if to help clear his mind. Tongue twisssterrrrrr.]

Killing time... rather.

[sawadeertoday]

[ And she sighs a little, even more flustered by the eyebrow waggle and Wheatley's total failure at coming up with excuses. ]

Killing time, indeed. Because we got up earlier than everyone else.

[ Mhm, all of the lies. ]

[takethat]

[He grins wickedly at Wheatley.]

Yeah I bet you got up alright.

[bad phoenix]

C'mon, guys. Your clothes, your mussed-up hair, GLaDOS, is that your lipstick all over Wheatley's face??

[wheatdos]

[Wheatley lowers his head, hiding a growing grin from GLaDOS. She can probably see it anyway. He stifles a laugh...

You totally got him hot and bothered before GLaDOS... shaming him by playing with his neck... you're lucky he doesn't blurt that right out... Besides this was his BROTHER... he can't disappoint him with no story...]

You got us, mate. Last night was a goooooooooooooooooooooooood night.

[sawadeertoday]

[ After that embarrassing encounter, GLaDOS would still be standing on the shore, huffing before promptly kicking Wheatley's leg. ]

I can't believe you would insinuate that in front of someone!

[wheatdos]

OPFGH... OW!!

[He just falls over, on the ground, not expecting that. He holds his leg and rolls onto his side, slowly. Owwww...]

Ohoho...owwwwhwhwhw... H-hey! Come on! It wasn't that bad!

[sawadeertoday]

[ She's red in the face from that earlier embarrassment, still. She stands over him, crossing her arms. ]

Yes! It was. Now he thinks we-!

And we didn't!

[wheatdos]

[He's shielding his face, in case she tries to hit him again...]

B-but... he doesn't know that!
Besides, if... if you just hear me out! Don't hit me... please. I-I can tell you that... it's better than he does. All a part of the plan love... alllll a part of the plan...

[sawadeertoday]

[ And... she just crouches next to him. ]

Oh? What plan. [ she says, unamused, shoving his shoulder lightly. ]

[wheatdos]

Ahhh...

[He shakes his head vigorously.]

I uh... well you see....
Ehehe...
I can't... uh... actually tell you, love...

[sawadeertoday]

Because the plan doesn't exist, right? [ she asked, grabbing at one of his hands with hers to pull it off his face. ]

[wheatdos]

Nonononono... It... it does! It does...!
But I can't tell you cause... I...

[He's shutting his eyes.]

It's a long story! Terribly long. Bet you'd fall asleep right through it, it--it's that long....
