Emmett's call back tone was the Dark Wing Duck theme song, but all he could hear on his side of the line was "Come Out Moon" sung by Jim Cummings as Winnie the Pooh. He had been sitting at his computer disk and bobbing his head to one of his mix CDs. This one was of songs from video games. There hadn't really been much to do on the computer. Noone was online, not that he was a big IMer or anything. He hardly checked his Myspace. Youtube brought some entertainment, but mainly he was racking up quest points on NeoPets. He'd already sent in the max scores for points on his favorite NP games. He was quickly running out of things to do. When he heard this phone buzz and sing, he glanced at it and took his time to answering, very laid back and calm. He was in a pretty alright mood at the moment, and it was nice to get a call, especially from Caylee. He answered in a very eased and simple tone.
"It's a heavenly afternoon at The House Of God. You have reached the office of the angel Michael. If you'd like to be transfored to Raphael or Jesus, please press one now. This is Gabriel, how may I bless you this evening?"

Pru paused for a long time, staring at the phone. Either someone had replaced her Ambien with acid and she was on a bad trip or ... "Hey, Gabriel, can you get Emmett please? It's Prudence, calling on behalf of one Caylee Thayer."

He was so close to just dropping the phone. "Oh...sh- gawd- Pru, I'm sorry! H-hi...heh...umm...This- this is Emmett. Hiiii...egh..." he fumbled nerviously and stood up, no longer so eased and relax. He hated that he'd just probably proved himself the biggest loser to someone he'd hardly known less than a month. "I'm sorry. Is everything okay?" And why WAS she calling from Cay's phone?

"Y-yeah, everything is fine, I guess." Despite the fact I just gave your girlfriend one of the strongest sleeping pills on the market. "I'm sorry to bother you but ... would you mind coming over?"

"Whoa um...i-if everything's fine...why do I need to come over?" he asked getting paranoid. He moved around to the back of his desk chair and gripped his free hand into the too, his fingers pulsing against the cusion. "Are you sure nothing's wrong? Is Cay there?"

"Of course she's here. She's just ... a little out of it right now. Your presence has been requested."

"...uhh." He was very lost and confused. Still, he might aswell come over. "Ya know, sure. Alright... Just... let me throw on some genderless-ninja clothes and I guess I'll be there soon... You want me over right now, yeah? Or...later or...?" Genderless-ninja clothes? He'd obviously forgotten this was Pru he was talking to, not Caylee.

"Now would be cool," Pru said. "Yeah. We were just hanging out...she wanted to see you...but she's kind of out of it? So I called you."

"Aaaalright then... I guess I'll see you both soon?" standing up away from the chair, his free hand now ruffling the back of his hair as he itched his scalp. Emmett travelled over to get his jacket and figured this one was low enough so no one would be able to tell if he had any figure to him or not. Which was exactly what he needed.

"Yeah, totally. Thanks, Emmett. See you soon." Pru hung up the phone before giving Emmett a chance to say anything else. She went over to the bed and gently nudged Caylee. "Hey...Sleeping Beauty...how you feeling?"

"Is Emmie coming?" she sat up a little, propped up by her elbow. "Is he on his way?"

"Yeah, he's on his way. You want something to drink? These pills make me thirsty as hell..."

"Mm-mm," she shook her head, laying back down. "Jus' want Emmie..."
