Last chapter, Sheila aged up, Harry died, and Diago decided to pursue Melisa over Lindsay… for now.
Our little heir even decided to work on his skills, just like his dad told him.
Diago: Told me? More like he warned me that I would be disowned if I didn’t get full scholarships.
I pulled this adorable picture out of Diago’s inventory. I’m guess it was taken before Lindsay asked Diago to go steady… in front of her own boyfriend.
Rhyan: You’re pretty good at this for a newbie.
Diago: All those hours spent pretending to be a race car driver were well spent.
Sheila is living the life of luxury. Hardly a moment goes by that someone isn’t playing with her.
Alonso: That’s because she’s the best girl! Isn’t that right?
Whose the cuter couple, Rhyan and Alonso or Sheila and Alonso?
I’ll just be honest, I’ve never seen Alonso go on a walk with Rhyan.
Speaking of our firefighting heiress, tell the readers why you’re in your bathing suit.
Rhyan: No.
She tried to go swimming in these poor peoples pool instead of putting out their dangerous house fire.
Rhyan: I had plenty of time! And now look what you’ve caused. If I get third degree burns, I’m sending the hospital bill to you.
That would still be you stupid.
Later Rhyan rolled a wish to upgrade the sprinkler in Diago’s small garden. I thought that was pretty sweet so I- wait. What’s happening back there?
Are you going to stop her from eating that?
Rhyan: No. She can eat whatever she wants.
Sheila: You only think you’re in charge around here.
-_-
Electrical fire?
Doctors: Finally! Thank you for coming! There are still people in there-
Rhyan: Yep, just one sec. Gotta get my podcast started before I go in.
The hero we didn’t know we needed.
An interesting sight. Not that hard to believe, either.
Behind the pair of roller skates walking by themselves is Trinity, Remy’s daughter. All the kids from generation 7 are adorable.
I hate that sleeping bag. You couldn’t wait the five minutes it took for Melisa to get here?
Diago: I was tired! What’s wrong with a quick power nap?
Melisa: I saw what happened at prom. Pretty awkward stuff.
Diago: The stuff teenage fanfics are written about. Good thing I had an escape route via my dead grandpa.
Melisa: Sorry about your gramps. It must be hard not having him around anymore.
Diago: Tell me about it. He used to cook every meal. Now I’ll be lucky to ever eat anything but pancakes again. But aside from that, I really like you Melisa. Like a lot. And I know you have a new boyfriend, but-
Melisa: Did you seriously invite me out just to seduce me? What happened to friendship? Am I nothing but a girl to you?
Diago: I didn’t say anything like that! I just thought you should know how I feel, that’s all.
Melisa: Confessing your true feelings. In your pjs. How romantic.
Diago: I never claimed to be Romeo. And what’s wrong with pjs?
Melisa: Very funny. It’s not that I don’t like you. It’s just I have a boyfriend now. And I pretty much like him.
Diago: Pretty much?
Melisa: You know. Yea.
Diago: I’m just going to go for it.
Melisa: For what-
Diago: So?
Melisa: So what?
Diago: Was there a spark?
Melisa: Just shut up.
Don’t look behind you, it might ruin the moment.
I can’t believe that worked out.
Diago: Wait, come back.
Melisa: No. I think I should go home now.
Diago: Are you mad at me?
Melisa: I don’t know how I feel. I’ll.. text you or something. Good night Diago.
Diago: Good night.
Paparazzi: Good night, Melisa!
Shut up, you.
The next day Rhyan was trying to teach Diago how to drive again when he decided to take a dip into the soil instead.
Rhyan: If you wanted to go swimming, I could have dropped you off at the pool.
Rhyan: No? Okay, I’m going home then. See you later.
And he sank into the ground, never to be seen again.
Hah, just kidding. After a few more glitchy drives he had his licences!
So he called up Melisa, who thankfully answered after last nights fiasco, AND agreed to meet up with our little heir. Miracles really do exist.
Diago: Hey Melisa, I just wanted to say I’m really sorry-
Melisa: Let’s talk later. Did you know this place is spaced themed? Pretty cool.
Diago: Yea, I guess-
Melisa: Lets go in.
Diago: This place is pretty cool.
Thanks, I built it.
I was going for a vintage spaceship theme. It’s not amazing, but I think it does the job pretty well.
Diago: She is REALLY into that game.
Working off the nerves.
Diago: Ready to talk now?
Melisa: I broke up with my boyfriend.
Diago: Wow, I wasn’t expecting that.
Melisa: I went home and thought about it and… I like you too.
Diago: So what does this all mean for us?
Melisa: It means you’re going to take me to the dance tonight. And then we will see.
Diago: Alcohol is a good muscle relaxer.
Diago: WOA! I’m like, purple.
Diago: Lit.
After goofing around by himself for a few hours, it was time for prom #2.
Diago: Maybe after tonight Melisa and I can go to the movies like normal teenagers instead of meeting in the park to talk about our other romantic interests.
Finally I found Alaric’s oldest daughter Nandini as a teen. She got the makeover she deserved before prom.
Diago: Looks like I have a girlfriend.
And some unfinished business with a certain dark haired girl.
Diago: Let’s leave that drama for another night.
Sheila has fleas and Diago, being the good pet owner he is, rolled a want to give her a bath. Sad news is they weren’t close enough so Sheila wouldn’t let him.
So, Diago spent all morning playing with her to get their relationship higher.
And contracted fleas himself in the process.
Sheila: You are INFECTED!
Now your whole face is a flea.
Sheila: My master plan.
Diago: Atta girl.
After all that hard work and dedication, Diago dries Sheila off, sets her on the floor, and…
Diago: Did you just pee on the rug? Seriously?
Sheila: Woof!
Diago: OHMYGOD! One just tried to jump into my eye!
Diago: Oh look, they never took down my birthday decorations.
Um… yea… that’s totally someone else’s job.
Diago: Lindsay, can we talk? Lindsay?
I think she’s stuck.
Diago: I think I got myself stuck too.
So after both kiddos were reset -_- Diago found Lindsay UNSTUCK at her house.
Diago: You been having nightmares about getting stuck and dying in a body of water recently?
Lindsay: Now that you mention it, yea.
Lindsay: But then, in my dream you came to rescue me.
Diago: Well I am the bravest person I know.
Lindsay: *giggles*
Earth to Diago, did you forget what you came here to do?
Diago: And all of the sudden I’m feeling extremely ill.
I thought you were brave? Just rip the bandaid off.
Diago: Lindsay, I know we’ve kinda had a thing.
Lindsay: Kinda? A thing? I guess that’s what you could call it?
Diago: Last night at the dance, Melisa asked me if I wanted to go steady.
Diago: And I said yes. So we need to break things off here.
Lindsay: Break things off?
Diago: Melisa would be heartbroken if she thought I was flirting around, and we’re better as friends anyways.
Lindsay: You… you jerk! I asked you to be my boyfriend first! Am I not good enough for you?
Diago: What, no-
Lindsay: Then why did you run off afterwards?
Diago: For starters, you already had a boyfriend! And he looked pretty pissed.
Diago: And my grandpa died! What was I supposed to do?
Lindsay: I didn’t know about your grandpa. I’m sorry.
Diago: It’s okay.
Diago: Don’t be mad at me. We will always be friends.
Diago: So are we good?
Lindsay: Yea, I guess so.
All is well that ends well. I mean, as well as it can end. Lindsay is staring at her shoes as if she would rather be anywhere else.
Thanks for reading guys, I’ll catch you on the next one!
