Ch. 63 - Leif Moves Back Home

Mace had gotten pretty comfortable in his house. He was enjoying having his own place - a place where he could invite the ladies over to. He didn't have to answer to anyone else or share anything with anyone.

But what Mace didn't know is that things weren't going so well for his brother Leif. He had been sharing a house with some friends. The friends had gotten married, and just had their first child. That meant they needed the room that Leif was in, and Leif had to go. Leif only had one place to go...that was back home.

He liked what his little brother had done with the place. There wasn't a pink thing in the whole house. Hot dog...this was nice, he thought. He could get very comfortable here.

"Dude" said Mace flatly "can't you crash somewhere else? I have a chick comin' over".

Leif assured him that he could still have his friend over and that he'd stay out of their way.


Mace's date was Kristen Singles, a girl who Leif secretly had a crush on. He watched as they giggled and flirted with each other and wondered what she saw in his brother. He knew that Mace was just using Kristen, and he couldn't watch it anymore, so he turned to go back into the hot tub.

"Oh the hot tub!", said Kristen "That sounds like fun. Come on Mace!"
Mace told her he'd grab his bathing suit and be right there. But after a few minutes when Mace still wasn't in the hot tub, Kristen went to find him.


Well she found Mace, and he was getting something on, but it wasn't his suit.


Mace was caught red-handed. Kristen let him have it, then stomped off to change back into her clothes. Who was that girl anyway?

Just as Kristen was storming out of the house, Leif offered her a ride home. She thanked him, and climbed in his car, glaring at a very shocked Mace as they pulled out. When Leif pulled the car up to her house, Kristen changed her mind. "I don't really feel like going inside. Let's go somewhere - anywhere". Leif wasn't really dressed to go out - he was still in his bathing suit - but he didn't mind. "Ok, I know just the place" he said.


"Come on Kristen. Sing with me", asked Leif.
"Wait. I don't think I know this song." she replied. "Is this song about a Beaver or something?"
"Just read the lyrics and follow along. It's a classic" says Leif.


Before long, Kristen had the song down pat.

Muskrat Susie, Muskrat Sam
Do the jitterbug out in muskrat land
And they shimmy
Sam is so skinny

And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed
Singin' and jingin' the jango
Floatin' like the heavens above
It looks like muskrat love


They stayed and sang all night, until finally the place closed down for the night. Outside, Kristen gave Leif a big hug.

"Thank you Leif, for everything. You've been really nice to me and I had a great time. It was a lot of fun."

Leif opened his mouth to ask her if she wanted to do it again the next night, but decided it was probably bad timing. Instead he told her to call if she needed anything.

Right now he was going to focus on keeping his brother's hands off of Kristen.

Leif and Kristen singing in a tree ... care-are-are-are-carolling! :OD Hehe. I thought that was sweet that he still hung out with her ... even though he was in his bathing suit. :O)) What a great guy. He needs a new hairdo though. :O)) Yes, keep Mace's hands off of her. He doesn't care for her ... but Leif ... you just might. :O}

Oh Leif, falling in love Mace's girl is not the best way to win him over. I smell trouble from this place in the future.

Poor Leif. Things are definitely not going well for the poor boy. Mace really is a dog, isn't he. *shakes her head* Ooo, I'll keep my fingers crossed for Leif and Kristen! :-D Hopefully they'll choose to get their own place before Mace finds out that his brother moved in on one of his chickies.
