Day 3: Tickly Kisses
Robbie and Chase have a tickle fight, and Robbie reveals something to Chase that worries him. So they head to Henrik for help. More tickles ensue.
Part of the "An Unexpected Roommate" series! Just a short.
Robbie was playing around with his stuffed dog, and wrapping it up in blankets. There were about 5 blankets wrapped around the stuffed dog, and a huge smile on the kid’s face. “Now you’re gonna be nice and warm.”
“Nice and warm to the point of overheating…” Chase teased.
Robbie turned around. “What?”
“The dog has lots of fur. I think he’s gonna be warm enough.” Chase told him.
“He’s fake.” He reminded him.
Chase giggled. “I know. I was joking.”
Robbie smiled and ran to Chase, giving him a big hug. “I love you.”
Chase smiled and hugged him back. “I love you too.”
Robbie soon started pecking his stomach, making Chase giggle. “Whahahat ahahare yohohohou dohohoihing?” Chase asked.
“Tickling you.” Robbie told him. “Kissy kissy kiss!” Robbie pecked his lips on Chase’s belly and abs, making Chase all giggly in the process.
“Stahahahap thahahat, kihihihid!” Chase ordered softly.
“But your laugh is so cute!” Robbie argued.
“Not as cute as yours!” Chase picked up Robbie around his waist and lifted him up to his head. He held onto him in a safe way, and started blowing raspberries all over Robbie’s belly. “PFFFBBBFFFBBFFBFFBB!”
Robbie squealed and bursted out laughing. “CHAHAHAHAHASE! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”
“Yes ya little nut?”
“HEHEHEHEHEY!” Robbie kicked his feet up and down and wiggled around everywhere he could. But none of the wiggling could get him out of Chase’s grip.
“Hey? Hay is for horses!” Chase declared with a smile.
“IHIHIHIT TIHIHIHICKLHEHEHEHES!” Robbie laughed.
“Well duh! That’s why I’m doing the kissy kisses!” Chase continued to kiss his belly and sides. “A kiss over here,” He kissed his belly button.
“A kiss over there,” He kissed his side.
“A kiss everywhere!” Chase kissed all over his abdomen and belly.
“WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Robbie laughed hysterically, tapping Chase’s head as the kisses were planted onto his body.
Chase leaned forward and blew a raspberry this time! “Raspberry time!”
Robbie SCREECHED and squawked like a parrot as his belly was raspberried to oblivion. It felt like a cluster of ticklishness and giddiness had exploded out of Robbie’s chest! It was such a fun experience for him!
Robbie soon reached out, risking exposing his armpits, and tickled Chase’s neck in retaliation. Thankfully, Chase’s neck was quite ticklish and showed that was a big ol’ squeal! He curled his neck to the right, exposing his left side. On his left side, Robbie leaned up and tickled Chase’s neck and chin with kisses and tickles!
“Hehehehehehey! EHEhehehehehehe! Hohohold ohon kihihihid!” He giggled.
“Hold on? But you’re holding onto me! You can always drop me, you know.” Robbie told him.
“WHAHAHAT?! NOHOHO IHIHI CAHAHAHAN’T!” Chase yelled back. “IHIHI DOHOHON’T WAHAHANNA HUHUHURT YOHOHOU!”
“You won’t hurt me. My legs are painless anyway!” Robbie told him casually.
Chase quickly pulled Robbie away from his face and looked down at his legs. “Your legs are what now?”
“Painless...I don’t feel anything in my legs.” Robbie admitted.
Chase put Robbie down and traced up Robbie’s leg to test his feeling. “Do you feel this?” Chase flicked the leg.
“Barely…” Robbie admitted.
“How about this?” Chase started fluttering his fingers up and down on Robbie’s knee.
Robbie looked down and shook his head. “No…”
Chase grew worried and covered Robbie’s eyes. ‘Can you feel this?” Chase asked, poking Robbie’s foot.
Robbie blinked and tried to feel for something. But there was nothing. Just nothing. “No. I feel nothing.”
Chase covered his mouth. “Your feet aren’t ticklish anymore then…” Chase realized.
“I...Oh no…” Robbie realized.
Chase picked up Robbie. “We’re going to Dr. Schneeplestein. Now.” Chase ran to Dr. Schneeplestein’s room and knocked on the door.
Henrik opened the door and looked at Chase. He was tense...tense as anything! “Vhat’s zhe matter?”
“Robbie can’t feel his legs.” Chase told him.
Henrik widened his eyes and took Robbie. “Come here.”
Robbie hummed curiously and watched as Henrik grabbed a tapping hammer. Henrik tapped the knee to test the knee, and noticed it didn’t jump.
That’s strange…
Henrik tried again. Nothing.
“Oh no…” Henrik looked at Robbie. “How long have your legs been numb?” Henrik asked.
“For a while…” Robbie replied.
Henrik nodded and looked at Chase. “I may have to do some physical tests and look at his spine.” Henrik told him.
Chase nodded and watched them start.
Robbie started to giggle when he felt up the spine though. Robbie’s legs were completely numb, but the spine was intact.
“I see you have a ticklish back?” Henrik mentioned.
Robbie nodded. “Ihihi think so.”
Henrik gave the small of his back a tickle before he moved on, earning a giggle from the kid.
Henrik opened up a bag of cameras, and started putting it together. “I have a zheory: Your nerve might be pressed down somevhere in your pelvis. I’m afraid I’m gonna have to put a camera into your zhigh to see vhere exactly it is.” Henrik told him.
Robbie bit his lip and looked at Chase. Chase looked at Henrik. “Really? Another cut?”
“See now, I have zhis covered.” Henrik removed the stitching from a cut that was previously made. “Ve already have an open incision to vork vizh!” Henrik told him.
Robbie smiled at this. It was a proud kind of smile.
“And ve don’t need anesthetic, because his legs are already numb. However, ve can give him anesthetic if Robbie is not okay vizh watching.” Henrik told him.
Robbie looked at Henrik with a smolder face. “I can handle it.”
Chase smiled. Let’s see how long that confidence lasts…
[A Couple Hours later:]
The spot was restitched and some gauze was sticked onto the leg. “Zhere. How do you feel now?” Henrik asked.
“Ihihi feheheel pihihins and neehehehedles!” Robbie giggled. “Ihihihit feheheheels weihihihird.”
“You, Mr, are a very brave boy. You deserve some tickles and ice cream for zhat!” Henrik told him.
Chase smiled and picked him up. “You bet he does!” Chase started tickling his belly and sides, while giving Robbie tickly kisses on his neck at the same time.
“EHEHEHEHEHEHEEEE! DAHAHAHADDYHYHYHY NOHOHOHOHO!” Robbie laughed.
Henrik widened his eyes and slowly smiled.
Chase smiled excitedly at his choice of words, and continued tickling Robbie with just the tickly kisses on the neck. “Oho, Daddy YES!”
Robbie squealed and let out his adorable giggles for the world to hear and enjoy.
“Tihihihicklihihihish neheheheck!” Robbie giggled.
“Well duh! That’s why you’re kinda dying right now! You’re getting all the tickle tickle tickle’s you desire!” Chase told him.
“Yahahahahahay!” Robbie declared.
Chase chuckled at that and flipped him around into a hug. With the small of his back exposed, Chase started tickling his back lightly with his fingers. “Kitchy kitchy kitchy kitchy koo!”
NOhOHOHOHO KIHIHITCHYHYHYHY’S!” Robbie laughed, wiggling around and kicking all over the place.
“Yes kitchy’s! All the kitchy’s!” Chase teased.
“NOHOHOHO!”
“Yeeesssss!”
Henrik giggled at the boys bickering during the tickle attack. “May I tickle him?” Henrik asked.
“YES!” Robbie replied excitedly.
“Alright! Here comes Henrik!” Chase declared, handing him to Henrik.
“How would you feel about kisses on zhe belly?” Henrik asked.
“Yes please!” Robbie replied eagerly.
“Alright!”
Henrik started tickling Robbie’s belly with ticklish kisses and pecks. “Mwah! Mwah mwah mwah mwah!”
“Ehehehehehehehahahahahaha! Ihihihihit tihihihicklehehehes!” Robbie giggled.
“I know zhat. But zhis is now how I show my love! Mwah! Mwah! Mwah!” Henrik teased.
Robbie giggled and laughed through the whole thing. He was a happy little mess for a while after the weird procedure. As it would turn out, Robbie’s nerves were starting to get looser and were starting to get stuck in the bone, cutting them off overnight. The blood vessels were still intact. But the nerves were quite stuck in the bottom of the ball and socket joint. So, Henrik had to move it out of the way and glue it to the joint so it didn’t get stuck in the spot again.
Henrik and Chase also took Robbie to get ice cream at the local ice cream shop. Robbie’s favorite part about being at the ice cream parlor was seeing all the nerd socks and the nerdy items that only the geeks got.
The ice cream parlor was also a place you could get Pokémon toys, Harry Potter stuff, and even Sailor Moon and FNAF things! It was a cool little joint for both Chase AND Robbie.
Robbie ended up getting a waffle cone with Cookies and Cream in it, while Chase got Dutch Chocolate in a cup. Henrik got Black Cherry in a waffle cone, and got a spoon to eat off the top too.
The three boys ended up having one of the bestest days ever.
