Never Living It Down.

To keep up with the maintenance costs of racing against the Metal Maniacs, Vert was forced to get a side gig. Sure, he made decent money winning street races, but between upgrading his car and keeping it working at peak performance all the time, his winnings simply weren’t enough. To remedy this problem he decided to start giving surfing and skating lessons.

At first, business was slow, but the closer it got to summer, the easier it was to find clientele. Most parents signed their kids up just to get them out of the house while school was out, others just wanted their kids to socialize more while also gaining a skill in the process. It wasn't long before Vert had obtained quite the client base. In fact, there were times when he had to turn people away because he just didn't have enough bandwidth to look after a dozen kids in the water without worrying he might lose one or two of them.

Towards the end of the summer, when most schools were starting to run classes again, he'd built up enough rapport with some of the parents that he’d landed a few babysitting gigs to hold him over for the rest of the season. He’d usually end up finishing up right before the Teku would be heading out for a race or a car meet. Tonight was no different except for the fact that he was running late.

The parents had gotten so caught up in all the banquet politics that they had completely missed their pick-up time. Vert was just about to send a courtesy text to Nolo when he heard loud and familiar music pulling up to his house.

The girls he was watching over that night were psyched about the colorful flashing lights coming from outside the windows, but Vert was horrified. He hadn’t told the crew he had started a babysitting gig, and worse than that, the girls, Tina and Laurie, had stuffed him into a WAY too small princess dress and had plopped a comically extravagant tiara on his head so that he could play princesses more accurately.

When the knocking at the door started, Vert momentarily thought about just hiding and waiting them out, but before he had a chance to slink away, Tina had sprinted to the door and swung it open with all the enthusiasm in the world. They would have to have a talk about opening up the door for strangers later… again.

“Vert, come on- we’re going to be… um…. Hello?” To say Kurt looked confused would be an understatement.

“Tina! C’mon, we talked about this!” Vert chidded as he scoped the giggling girl up into his arms. Laurie was right behind him, gazing curiously up at Kurt from behind Vert’s leg.

“He’s got funny glasses!” Tina shouted pointing up at Kurt. Kurt could only blink in surprise as Vert finally met his dumbfounded gaze.

“Yeah. He does, doesn’t he,” Vert snorted.

“Says the man in a tiara,” Kurt was quick to snap back, folding his arms over his chest defensively.

“He’s a princess!” Tina shouted, and Vert quietly reminded her about the existence of inside voices.

Nervous about having the door open for too long, Vert stepped aside and gestured for Kurt to come in. Hesitantly, he did, shutting the door behind him. For a moment, he just took in the scene in front of him. There were various Barbies and stuffed animals set up around a little table in the living room. A tea set, which he determined was thankfully full of water, lay abandoned in the middle of the table.

“I didn’t know you had sisters,” Kurt said finally, locking eyes with Laurie who was still silently staring up at him like she didn't know what to make of him.

“I don’t. These are my neigbor’s kids.” Vert playfully tossed Tina down on the couch which only made her laugh and squeal louder. “They’re stuck at some banquet. I’ve been watching them since six. Tina. Laurie. Say hi to Kurt.”

Tina waved wildly, while Laurie went to silently hide behind Vert’s leg again.

“Laurie’s a little shy, but she warms up fast, isn’t that right, little dude?” Vert prompted, patting the girl gently on the head.

“I’m not a little dude… I’m a princess.” Laurie gently reminded Vert.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Vert had been so caught up explaining himself that he hadn't even heard the other car roll up. Hoping that it was Tina and Laurie’s parents, he made a beeline for the door and swung it open. No such luck.

Shirako, Karma, and Nolo all stood on his front porch looking just as confused as Kurt had been a minute ago.

“What the hell-“

“HECK am I wearing?” Vert worked fast to censor Nolo. The last thing he needed was for the girls to go home saying swear words.

“He’s a princess!” Kurt cackled from inside.

Karma raised an eyebrow at him.

“Look, I’m babysitting my neighbor’s kids, okay? Now come in before one of them decides to bolt out the door.” Vert said, ushering the rest of the Teku into his home.

Like Kurt, the three of them entered the living room with a reasonable level of caution. There were toys strewn out everywhere, and they also didn’t know how these kids would react to having three other people in the house. Positively apparently, because it didn't take but two seconds for Tina to drag Nolo and Karma over to the tea party table. Kurt had already been served a tiny teacup full of water by the time they were seated.

“Princess Vert!!!” Tina shouted, aggressively waving him over. “Your guests are here- they are ready for your royal speech!”

The Teku couldn’t contain their laughter as Vert straightened out the tiny princess dress he had squeezed into. Tina, of course, violently shushed them.

“Uh… Welcome to the tea party…?” Vert spoke hesitantly, and even Laurie shook her head.

“No!!! Use your princess voice!” Tina complained dramatically, pouring Shirako a cup of water, to which he thanked her quietly.

He was never going to live this down…

With all the poise and elegance he could muster, Vert sucked in a deep breath and pitched his voice up a couple of octaves. The speech, all things considered, was pretty good. Good enough to satisfy Tina at least. The Teku on the other hand…

Kurt had a hand clasped tightly over his mouth and was shaking with the effort it took not to laugh again. Shirako and Nolo were in literally tears as they listened to Vert’s beautiful tea party speech, and Karma was recording the whole thing.

Yup… He was never living this down.

About twenty minutes after Vert’s tea party speech, Tina and Laurie’s parents finally showed up. They were extremely apologetic for the late pickup, and tipped well because of it, but not enough to cover the damage to his ego he had suffered that night.

All the way to the race, that was all the Teku talked about. Not to mention the fact that they called him Princess Vert for a full week after the incident.

Nope. Never living it down.
