"Peter! Peter! Take cover! The freaks are back!" his personal assistent shouted, taking cover himself, being afraid of the seven guys approaching him. They like to bug him about strawberries and all that. He didn�t understand. Peter sighed and turned around.
"Hi guys" He said. "Sorry you had to come back, but I�d like to know what you�re going to do tomorrow." He looked at Orlando. "Especially you. No jumping out of planes again."
"Of course not" Orlando replied and Peter gave him a relieved smile. "I never do the same things twice. I think I�m gonna jump out of a heli now, with a snowboard under my feet."
"Then I�m coming along" Viggo said to him.
"No way!" Peter exclaimed in horror.
"They�re making fun of you" Billy told him.
"Billy! Now you�re spoiling all" Orli complained.
Billy shrugged. "He would have known anyway. Eventually."
Viggo shook his head. "You don�t understand. The longer the suffering, the better."
Billy nodded thoughtfully. "I see" he replied. "I�m sorry. Won�t do it again."
Peter put his hand in his sides and tried to be taller than Orlando. "What are you going to do?" he asked slowly.
"Surfing, I guess" Orli sighed. "With the Hobbies, right?"
"I�m coming along" Dom said, "and Billy too."
"You�ve decided for me!" Billy complained.
"You wanted to come along!"
"Yes, but I wanted to say so myself."
"Children!" Sean said warningly. "Cut that out. I�m going too so I can keep an eye on them. Seany and Viggo will come too."
"Oh, then you will go too, won�t you?" Peter asked Elijah and turned halfly around, expecting the answer to be yes.
"No" Elijah said. "I�ve got other things to do."
Peter stared at him. "What?" he asked surprised.
"I can�t tell here. Not everyone" Elijah gave the others a venomous look, "needs to know."
"Oh. Well tell me tonight then."
Elijah nodded and walked away, not bothering to wait for the others.
Peter turned to them with a frown. "What�s with him?"
Before Sean could answer normally, Orli beat him to it and put his hands on his hips, saying:
"As if you don�t know!"
Peter looked startled. "What have I done?"
"You insulted him" Seany said. Viggo and Sean, uninformed, looked almost as surprised as Peter. Almost.
"You shouldn�t have said he acted like a girl" Dominic told the director. "You should only THINK such things. I�m holding them back all the time."
"So are we" Billy mumbled.
"What do I do now?" Peter asked.
"Apologise" Orli said, looking at his fingernails from up close and rubbing them on his shirt.
Peter frowned at him. "What do I say?"
"You�re the director" Orlando answered impatiently. "Crawl on your knees for all I care. Now scoot!"
