Chapter Fourteen: What could go wrong?
Lillian's POV
"Seriously?! They gave you the wrong cake?!"
I shouted through my phone.
"Yeah they did! They handed me what I thought was Gladion's cake and Paul opens up the box and it's a cake for a funeral service. Rest in peace Edger."
Said Gold.
"Gold this no time for jokes! Talk to Cress and Chili! Get the right cake but take Luke, Paul, and Alain with you! This isn't going well at all!!!"
I said while getting frustrated.
"There's more things going wrong?!"
Asked Gold.
"Not with Gladion's party! At least not right now! I'm trying to find VG a girl he seems lonely and wants to find someone he likes but so far I'm having no luck!!!"
I shouted.
"As the co leader and co founder of the Cupid squad may I suggest something?"
Asked Gold.
"Sure Gold what is it?"
I asked.
"What about Kanaii? She's single and likes smart guys and she's highly intelligent and book smart while VG is tech smart!"
Said Gold.
"this is the first and last time I'm going to say this... Gold you're a genius!!!"
I shouted.
"I am? Hear that Paul?! Lillian thinks I'm a genius!"
Said Gold proudly.
"I thought I heard her say that this is the first and LAST time she will would say it."
Said Paul emphasizing on the words last time.
"Whatever Paul let me have my moment!!!!"
Shouted Gold.
"You're still an idiot Gold."
Said Alain.
"I didn't ask for your opinion!!!"
Shouted Gold.
"Whatever guys just pick up the cake and make it snappy!"
I said while hanging up.
"What's wrong now?"
Asked Dawn through dressing room curtain divider.
"Cress and Chili gave Gold the wrong cake! However I know who I'm going to set VG up with!"
I said while squealing with excitement.
"Who?!"
Asked Aracel.
"Kanaii."
I said.
"Mina's oldest sister?"
Asked Aracel.
"Yeah! They would be perfect for each other now that I think about it!"
I said.
"So how are you going to set them up?"
She asked.
"You mean we. You and me."
I said.
"What about Gold?"
Asked Aracel.
"He's too busy with the cake."
I said.
"Okay so how are we going to set them up?"
Asked Aracel.
"Well VG and Conway are having issues with the lights and I'm going to send Kanaii to help them."
I said while snickering.
"But doesn't she have a crush on Conway?"
Asked Aracel.
"I'm going to have him help us carry our shopping bags."
I said.
"That's a great idea!"
Said Aracel.
"He'll do anything I ask him to."
I said.
"Mostly because you scare him."
Said Lexie while laughing.
"I texted him and threatened to have misty use her mallet on Conway if he didn't and it worked like a charm; he'll be here in five minutes."
I said.
"Lillian you shouldn't meddle."
Said Dawn.
"Oh come on Dawn! VG's going to end up lonely unless I do something about it!"
I said.
Dawn sighed and rolled her eyes.
Then Mina came out in a cute flowy green tank with Ruffles and a pair of light washed jeans and braided Brown sandals.
"Mina that outfit looks great on you!"
I said.
"Thanks!"
Said Mina.
"You know Paul would like it."
I said while giggling causing Mina to blush.
"LILLIAN!!!"
Shouted Mina.
"What he would."
I said while giggling.
"How's Lusamine doing?"
Asked Mina while changing the subject.
"It's taking such a long time! I mean she's so tiny and it's hard to find clothes her size!"
Said Dawn while sighing.
"How do you think I feel?!"
Said Lusamine through the curtain divider.
Then I saw May come back into the dressing room with several cute tops and then behind her Drew was carrying a huge load of jeans and mini skirts and Misty was carrying several boxes of shoes.
"What did you do May take every extra small you could find?!"
I shouted.
"No but I had to hunt for all of these maybe fight for a few of them.."
Said May.
"Again why did I agree to do this?"
Asked Drew sounding annoyed.
"Because you're the best boyfriend ever."
Said May.
"Well you aren't wrong."
Said Drew while blushing.
"Are those all for Lusamine to try on?!"
I asked.
"Yes I finally found some cute clothes in her size!"
Said May.
"Some?! More like half of the store!"
Said Lexie.
"Don't overwhelm the poor girl!"
Said Mina.
"You can never have too many clothes!"
Said Dawn.
"Oh boy... Poor Lusamine..."
Said Mina.
Dawn walked towards Lusamine's dressing room and opened the curtains and walked inside.
"Lusamine we have more clothes."
Said Dawn.
"Trying on clothes is so exhausting I've tried on a thousand of things already. We've been her for two hours and I only have five things in the yes pile."
Said Lusamine while sighing.
"You need clothes and they can't all be white. We're helping you add more flare to your wardrobe."
Said Dawn.
"Is this enough flare for you?!"
Asked Lusamine coming out in an ugly orange with too many Ruffles.
"Wow..."
Said Amber trying not to laugh.
"Oh my Arceus..."
Said Lexie.
"You look like an orange Christmas tree."
I said while laughing.
"Maybe too much flare!"
Said Dawn while laughing.
I could tell that Uncle Garret was growing very impatient by the text messages that were sent to my phone.
"Uncle Garret is getting impatient."
I said.
"What is it with men they have no patience!"
Said Dawn.
"Well we have been here for two hours and we got here the minute the mall opened and we've only found five things that Lusamine likes!"
Said Lexie while sighing.
"And it's boring!"
Said Mina while sighing.
"Agreed!"
Said Drew.
"Come on guys shopping is fun!"
Said Dawn with a lot of enthusiasm.
"Not when nothing fits and you come out looking like an orange Christmas tree."
Said Lusamine.
"Especially when she basically dragged you out of bed and forced you to go the mall with her."
Said Misty glaring at Dawn.
"What?! you weren't going to come willingly."
Said Dawn.
"Oh boy..."
I said.
"Can we just stop shopping?"
Said Lusamine.
"No you only have five things and that's not even enough to get you through the week."
Said Dawn.
"But nothing fits!"
Said Lusamine.
"Don't give up just yet try on these clothes these should fit."
Said May handing her the tops.
Drew handed Dawn the pants and skirts.
"and try on the shoes too."
Said Dawn handing Lusamine ten shoe boxes.
Lusamine was about to fall over because she had too much stuff in her hands.
"How many shoes do I need?!"
Shouted Lusamine who was trying to balance everything.
"A girl can never have too many shoes!"
Said May.
Lusamine slipped and fell and all the tops, dresses and shoes went flying.
"Oh no!"
Shouted Misty.
"Geez May that's too many clothes!"
Said Drew helping Lusamine up.
Lexie, Aracel and I got up and quickly picked up all the clothes that were on the floor Lusamine looked like she wanted to cry and seemed overwhelmed.
"Aw Lusamine there's no need to worry."
Said Dawn trying to cheer up Lusamine.
"FYI Lusamine that's when you should worry the most."
Said Misty.
"You're not helping!"
Said Dawn.
Lusamine sighed and went back into her dressing room with Dawn and May handed Dawn all the clothes and shoes and Dawn closed the curtain.
"This is so boring can I please help keep Gladion busy please?!"
Begged Misty.
"Yeah me too!"
Said Lexie.
"Lexie you stay! Misty you can go."
I said.
"Yes!"
Said Misty bolting out of the dressing room.
"Why do I have to stay?!"
Said Lexie.
"Because I can't leave either unfortunately because Lusamine wants me to stay because she think that the girls will overwhelm her if I leave."
I said whispering into Lexie's ear.
"What does this have to do with me?!"
Shouted Lexie.
"I need someone to talk to so I don't get bored and I need someone to help me pick out clothes for Lusamine."
I said.
"Okay fine..."
Said Lexie while sighing.
"Can I check on my Uncle? I want to see if the decorations are being put in the right places and I'm going to set the plan to get my uncle and Plumeria together into motion."
Said Aracel while whispering into my ear.
I giggled and smiled.
"Okay well Rj is at Guzma's house and Hazel is there too. Maybe we could set those two up. I promised Rj no more teasing but it doesn't mean that I'm going let them remain as friends and we're going to figure out who Lexie's mystery crush is."
I said while giggling.
"Good idea Lil."
Said Aracel while giggling.
"Why do I have a feeling that I'm not going to like this?"
Asked Lexie while sighing.
I smiled at Lexie.
"You'll see."
I said while smiling.
Gladion's POV
"Seriously Guzma why did Aracel order a piano?! Does she even play the piano?"
I asked while pushing it into the living room.
"Calem and Thania do apparently plus She thinks it would look cool in the living room."
Said Guzma who was struggling to push the piano into the living room.
We finally got the piano into the living room and I plopped down on the floor and and wiped the sweat off of my forehead.
"Oh my gosh that thing is heavy! Now that living room is painted white and your man cave is done can I please go home now?!"
I begged.
"No the kitchen isn't done yet and Aracel's room isn't even close to being done! I need you to help me with-"
"Help you with what?!"
I asked interrupting him.
"I need you to sort the food out in my fridge."
Said Guzma.
"You never go to the store unless Aracel's here."
I said.
"There's food that went very bad while she was gone so... Why did you think I raided your fridge?!"
Said Guzma.
"You want me to throw out the bad food."
I said while sighing.
"Exactly Rj and I are going to move Aracel's new bed into her room upstairs and we're going to paint it the color she wants. Iona and Hazel are going to go pick up the bedspread that Aracel ordered."
Said Guzma.
"What do mean by we?!"
Asked Rj.
"We are going to move the bed together!"
Said Guzma.
"Why can't you have Calem or Thania help you?! Or better yet Plumeria?!"
Shouted Rj.
"Because Calem and Thania are painting Aracel's room and they just finished so they are covered in paint and I don't want pink paint all over Aracel's new bed! And Plumeria refuses to help me move the bed!"
Said Guzma glaring at Plumeria who was sitting on the new leather couch painting she nails.
"What?! I just painted my nails. They're midnight black."
Said Plumeria.
"Who cares what color they are! As long as their isn't nail polish on the new couch I'm fine with it."
Said Guzma.
"So you finally bought a new couch."
Said Rj.
"Yes I bought a new couch! It's a long story!"
Said Guzma.
I heard a knock on the door and I ran to the door and answered it. It was Misty.
Rj almost tripped up the stairs.
"Be careful don't trip and break the new bed!"
Shouted Guzma.
"Gee thanks captain obvious!"
Said Rj while carrying the other end of the heavy bed upstairs while Guzma had the other end of the bed.
"Wow this house looks better than Aracel described it."
Said Misty.
"Oh no it was really bad. Aracel is the one who ordered the decorations and Thania and Calem were in charge of painting while Gladion helped move furniture. It looked like a gang war went off in this house."
Said Plumeria finishing her last nail.
"I figured Guzma couldn't have done all this on his own. I can see that Dawn helped."
Said Misty.
"Thank Arceus you are here and that I don't have to sort through old food in the fridge alone!"
I said.
"Wait what?! hold on Gladion did you say old food?"
Asked Misty.
"Yeah Guzma wants me to sort through all the food that went bad in his fridge while Aracel was gone and I don't want to do it alone! Please?!"
I said.
"Fine...."
Said Misty while sighing.
"Thank you!!!"
I said while smiling.
Misty nodded and we walked over to clean out Guzma's fridge. Then I heard Guzma yelling from upstairs.
"SILVALLY GIVE BACK THOSE HIGH HEELS!!!!!!!"
Shouted Guzma chasing Silvally down the stairs.
"Great what now?!"
I shouted.
"SILVALLY HAS ARACEL'S FAVORITE HIGH HEELS HELP ME CATCH HIM!!!!!!!"
Shouted Guzma.
"How did he get them?!"
I shouted.
"THE LITTLE MUTT WENT THROUGH ARACEL'S CLOSET WHILE THANIA AND CALEM WERE PAINTING AND WHILE RJ AND I WERE MOVING THE BED IMTO ARACEL'S ROOM AND HE TOOK HER HEELS AND WENT RUNNING!!!!!!!"
Shouted Guzma.
"Silvally isn't a Mutt!!!"
I shouted.
"Can you tell me what it is?!"
Shouted Guzma.
"Not really!"
I shouted.
"WHO CARES JUST GET MY NIECE'S HIGH HEELS AWAY FROM THAT.... THING!"
Shouted Guzma.
I sighed and quickly ran after Silvally and chased him him around the kitchen table trying to take the high heels from Silvally.
"SILVALLY DROP IT!!!!"
I shouted.
Silvally looked at me and dropped the high heels at my feet. Both heels looked like they were chewed off and there were bite marks all over the heels.
"Oh no... Silvally!!!!!"
I shouted.
Silvally hung it's head in sadness.
"Guzma these shoes aren't wearable anymore."
I said.
"OH MY ARCEUS WHY IS THIS POKEMON SO DESTRUCTIVE?!?!?!"
Shouted Guzma in anger.
"I'm training Silavlly still and I warned you about it but yet again you refuse to listen to me!"
I shouted.
"Sounds familiar Guzma?"
Asked Plumeria while chuckling.
Guzma was about to say something but then he stopped himself.
"You know what we'll burry them!"
Said Guzma.
"I'm sorry but what?"
I asked sounding confused.
"Oh boy..."
Said Plumeria while sighing.
"We'll burry Aracel's shoes!"
Said Guzma.
"If they're Aracel's favorite pair of shoes then won't she know that they went missing?"
I asked.
"I'll just say that they got lost on the move! Yeah she'll totally believe me!"
Said Guzma.
"Oh boy..."
I said.
"This plan sounds like it going to be a failure so I want no part in this."
Said Plumeria.
"Better get my shovel from the tool shed! Want could go wrong?!"
Said Guzma walking into his backyard.
"He's going to be dead when Aracel finds out."
I said.
Misty sighed and we went to Guzma's fridge and began sorting through his fridge.
Paul's POV
"What do you mean that you mixed up the cakes?!"
I said while shouting at Cress and Chili.
"We're terribly sorry but The funeral director already picked up your cake by accident and you have their cake!"
Said Cress.
"I'm sure they'll come back when they figure out that they have the wrong cake but we could make a replacement cake."
Said Chili.
"Well that's great when will it be ready by?"
Asked Gold.
"By tomorrow afternoon."
Said Cress.
"We need the cake today! Today is Gladion's birthday we need the birthday cake by today! Like in three hours if at all possible!"
I shouted while pounding my fist on the reception counter.
Chili and cress backed way slowly and were frightened by my sudden outburst.
"Look I'm terribly sorry but you'll have to wait for the costumer to bring by your cake."
Said Chili.
"Great just great!"
Said Paul.
"We could always make a cake!"
Said Gold.
"I can see so many things wrong with that scenario."
Said Alain.
"Aren't you banned from the kitchen by Uncle Garret?"
I asked.
"Okay so you put metal in the microwave once and your banned for life like how fair is that?!"
Said Gold while.
"You could've blown up our kitchen!!!"
I shouted.
"But I didn't yet!"
Said Gold.
"Yet is the key word!"
Said Luke.
"Whatever let's just go meet back at the house and check out how VG and Conway are doing on the lights and we can make the cake!"
Said Gold.
"That's a terrible idea we're not baking a cake and I don't know a thing about cooking!"
I shouted.
"But someone else does!"
Said Gold while smiling.
"Oh and who might that be?!"
I shouted.
"I heard that Serena and Ash got to the house and Serena can cook! She can make the cake!"
Said Gold.
"Wow Gold that actually doesn't sound like a terrible idea."
Said Luke who sounded shocked.
"Don't encourage him!"
I said.
"Do you even have the ingredients to make a cake?!
Asked Alain.
"No but we can go get some!"
Said Gold.
"Well it's better than giving Gladion a funeral cake for his birthday."
Said Alain.
"Come on Paul it's better than Gladion not getting a cake."
Said Luke.
"Okay fine we'll try Gold's idea! I can't believe those words just came out of my mouth."
I said.
"Come on this plan is full proof what could go wrong?!"
Asked Gold.
Gladion's POV
"Guzma are you sure this a good idea?!"
I shouted while he handed me the shovel.
"Yes this is a fantastic idea!"
Said Guzma.
"Guzma I don't think your niece is going to appreciate Gladion digging holes in her yard and I thought you were going to have Gladion sort through the fridge and get rid of all the old food."
Said Plumeria.
"His Pokemon that are my niece's high heels so Gladion should fix it and plus you and I can sneak out and buy his gift."
Said Guzma whispering into Plumeria's ear.
"Really Guzma?! You haven't bought him a gift yet?!"
Said Plumeria whispering into Guzma's ear.
"No! Because I don't know what the kid wants!"
Said Guzma.
"Just get Gladion a TM that's what I got him."
Said Plumeria.
"I don't want to get him the same gift!"
Said Guzma.
"Who said it had to be the same TM?!"
Said Plumeria.
"Guzma how big do you want the hole?!"
I shouted.
"Big enough to fit the high heels inside and burry them!"
Said Guzma.
I sighed and control need to dig while Silavlly was chewing on one the high heels.
"Silvally stop that!"
I shouted.
Then I heard Aracel walk through the door.
"Hey Uncle Guzma the house looks great!"
Said Aracel.
Silvally came running in from outside tracking mud into the house and he dropped Aracel's high heels at her feet.
"Are those my high heels?! And why is there mud in the house?! And why is Gladion digging a gaping hole in the yard?!"
Shouted Aracel.
"Because Guzma asked me too! Silvally ate your high heels, and Guzma wanted to hide them so he had asked me to dig the hole in the yard so he could hide them!"
I said.
Aracel turned around and glared at Guzma.
"It was a good idea until you found about it."
Said Guzma.
"Unbelievable! How can you be so irresponsible?!"
Said Aracel with her hands on her hips.
"That went well!"
Said Plumeria sarcastically.
"Plumeria I didn't ask you!"
Said Guzma.
"You know what there's way too much chaos going on right now to deal with all of this but what's important is that we get this mud cleaned up off of the floor and you Plumeria need to run your errands and I have stay here and clean up the mess you've made!"
Said Aracel.
"Am I in trouble?!"
I asked.
"No but uncle Guzma is!"
Said Aracel.
"I don't think that this is the right time to say this but I told you so."
Said Plumeria.
"Shut up!"
Said Guzma.
"Please go now! We have a time crunch!"
Said Aracel.
"What time crunch?"
I asked.
"Never Mind just please help me clean up."
Begged Aracel.
"I was going to head home because this seems like a family issue."
I said
"Please Gladion?! Help Misty empty out the fridge so I can out the groceries in when I done cleaning up the floor."
Begged Aracel.
"Okay fine."
I said.
"Thank you and make sure Silavlly stays out of the fridge! I don't now how long that stuff has been there for."
Said Aracel.
I sighed and walked into the kitchen and began to help sort the food.
