Gifted By Accident
Chapter 15. Which Way Is North?
For the longest time Pepper dared not move. Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
Time takes forever when one is standing around doing nothing but waiting for something to happen. Finally, Pepper got tired of waiting. He
steps quietly over to the door. Sticking his head out beyond the doorframe, Pepper can hear some noise from downstairs. It seems everyone
must be gathered around the dining room table. There are many voices overlapping, some occasional laughter. Peper is curious what humans
have to eat for lunch. Elves typically have icing frosted cookies, pop tarts, cheese crackers, and occasionally peanut butter sandwiches
with sweet pickle slices.
Suddenly there is the sound of chairs moving, followed by footsteps on the stairs. Pepper goes back to where he was standing earlier. He resumes
the pose, stares at the bed.
Gwen and Cindy come into the room. They talk rapidly, quite excitedly. They are getting ready to go to the skating rink. Gwen pulls open a
dresser drawer, yanks out some clothes. Cindy looks under the bed and she pulls out an overnite bag. Right in front of Pepper the younger
girl takes her pajamas off. She gets stripped down to underpants, and to Pepper's eyes the girl looks very much like a boy elf does. Her chest
is basically shaped the way Pepper's is. There is only a hint of puffiness giving a slight rise to her nipples.
Gwen can only be seen from the corner of Pepper's right eye. He dares not turn his head to look. He can only see the girl's backside. She too
has nothing up top when she takes her pajamas off, but she slips something small and white onto her upper torso. Once both girls are dressed
with shoes on they barely glance at Pepper as they rush out of the room. Soon any sounds of movement downstairs ends as the family leaves
the house.
Pepper knows what a skate rink is. He has tried skating on a section of ice where the other elves cleared the loose snow and packed it down
until it was smooth and hard. Pepper never really got the hang of it. The idea of playing in the snow didn't make much sense to him. Pepper
preferred hanging around the toy testing room at the Workshop. He enjoyed playing with the toys the other elves made, and they could make
better, more sophisticated gadgets than Pepper could. Pepper can remember when Santa's research and development team invented the
Atari video game system. For hours on end the elves took turns playing Space Invaders and Asteroids. Santa Claus took advantage of being
able to slip away to spend some quality time with the missus and not be bothered.
It seems that Pepper will not be bothered for a while. He has the entire house to himself. Tossing the bathrobe around him to the chair
it was previously laid down on, Pepper stepped over to the dresser. Yanking the top drawer open, Pepper looked at Gwen's underwear selection.
The panties are easily understood, mostly cotton with solid pastel colors. The small number of wiry things with two padded round cushions
were more interesting. Pepper remembers seeing a huge one of these removed that one time he saw Mrs. Claus get fully undressed to try out
the hot tub. The breasts on Santa's wife are the only ones Pepper has ever seen. Those are huge and slightly saggy. It will be a very long time
till Gwen might wear such a thing.
Pepper picked up one of the more colorful panties. It was pink and white, with little ruffles all along the waistband. It was so cute and Pepper
wished he could see Gwen wearing it. Before he knew what he was doing, Pepper presses the pink panties to his nose, breathing in deeply.
The only scent he could detect was laundry detergent and dryer sheets.
For the next couple hours Pepper wandered about the house. Looking into everything he was amazed at how many things humans have that are
NOT toys. In the living room there is a huge bookcase filled with DVD cases. This family has a boatload of movies, some of which have Christmas
in the title. They even have that movie about the GRINCH. Pepper shivers when he sees that title. Pepper met the Grinch once and that dude
is one Un-Happy camper.
The most interesting part of Pepper's search of the house was the kitchen pantry. There were cans and boxes of all sorts of food stuffs, most of
which Pepper has no idea what they are. He reads lists of ingredients and recipe ideas. Many of them sound intriguing. Pepper is learning so
much about humans. The other elves won't believe half of what he can tell them when he gets back to the North Pole.
Wait a minute...Pepper realizes he should be doing some research on finding out where this house happens to be. He needs to know what city
he is in so he can know which way to go. There must be a map or something somewhere. Pepper searches every place where he can pull open
a drawer and open a cupboard. After half an hour of searching Pepper stops and he smacks himself upside the head.
"I don't need to know where I am. All I have to do is walk toward the north. Duh, I'm so dumb."
Pepper goes to the front door of the house. It takes him some time to figure out how to unlock everything. It has two types of locks and a
chain which is not hooked on. Getting the door open, Pepper stared out into the yard. The house is on a street and there are more houses
in both directions. Hmmm...all he has to do is figure out which way is north. Pepper never had to locate the direction of north before. Every
direction is South where he lives.
As Pepper is trying to work out how directions work, a black mini-van pulls up into the driveway.
"OH No...they are back! I'm too late."
Pepper closes and relocks the door. He runs for the stairs. He must get back to the room and pretend like he never moved.
"Didly sticks, why did I dilly dally. I'm such a knucklehead." Pepper smacks the side of his head as he re-enters Gwen's bedroom. Grabbing the
bathrobe he puts it around his shoulders, and he resumes standing facing toward the bed.
Pepper stands there, unmoving for a long time. Again it seems like forever when one can only wait and do nothing. Finally, Gwen and Cindy
come into the room. They take off their shoes, toss some sweaters and jackets into the closet, and Cindy leaves the room. Gwen sits on the
bed and she looks to be very happy. The trip to the skating rink must have been fun and exciting. Her cheeks are rosy red and her eyes are
clear and bright.
"I'm so cold after all that skating, Pepper."
The elf is surprised to hear his name mentioned. Then he remembered, the girls did see and say his name. It's written on his green shirt. It's
actually a good thing he didn't get dressed. It would be easily noticed if he was no longer wearing just the red and white striped underpants.
"I'm still cold after all that, Pepper. I'm going to take a nice hot bath. Mom says she is going to take a nap. Dad is doing his usual thing, watching
football...and why am I telling you all this?...I'm so silly. Oh, so nice of you to find my bathrobe. Will you carry it into the bathroom for me.
I never had somebody to talk to in the bathroom before."
Gwen gets Pepper turned toward the door. "Okay, walk Pepper. Hold my hand and follow me." Gwen holds out her hand and Pepper takes it.
Together the two of them walk into the hallway, then two doors down to the bathroom.
