A/N: After watching Rock the House and Kon-Fusion, I have come up with personalities for the Newmans. Carrie is the tough and confident bandleader who loves her sister, Larry is shy and nervous with slight respiratory problems, Kim is down-to-earth, and Konnie is pretty much a female version of Kon. This oneshot series is a test for these personalities. Enjoy!
I'll also take requests, so remember to submit your ideas in your reviews.
Larry didn't have a problem being the only guy in a group of friends. Since they knew he wasn't a girl, they toned things down for him when he participated in a girly activity. He would buy a bottle of his favorite cologne during shopping sprees, get his hair trimmed while the girls were getting their hair done, and eating a hamburger during lunch-outs. But what he loved most was the sleepovers, especially after one particular night...
"You sure you want to do this?" Kim asked.
"Yeah," Larry answered, watching Kim apply clear nail polish to his fingernails. "I didn't want to feel left out."
Konnie was combing Larry's hair. "You say that for everything," she recalled. "The mall, the beauty parlor, lunch-outs at Wendy's..."
"That time you skipped paintball for mani-pedis," Kim chimed in.
"Okay, so I'm not like other guys," Larry said. "I happen to like that stuff."
At that point, Carrie returned with a black long-sleeved v-neck shirt and a silver spiked bracelet. "Sorry I took so long, Newmans," she said. "I had to get somethIng boy-appropriate."
"Do I have to wear that?" Larry asked.
Carrie groaned. "Just close it and put them on," she insisted, shoving the two items in Larry's hands. "It's part of the makeover."
Showing defeat with a sigh, Larry took off his shirt, quickly put the v-neck on, and put the spiked bracelet on his right wrist. "Happy?" he asked.
The three girls looked amazed. Larry actually looked good in that outfit. "Not bad," Kim said as Konnie nodded in agreement.
But Carrie was silent. To her, Larry looked amazing. His hair was silently messy and the shirt revealed some developing muscles. She smiled after a few seconds of admiring the boy's beauty. "You look amazing, Larry."
Larry smiled in response, but his shyness got the better of him, causing him to tilt his head downwards as his bangs covered his eyes. "Th-Thanks..." he stammered, blushing.
Since that night, Larry showed a greater interest in sleepovers with the girls. He did it to impress Carrie. The shy red-haired boy was crushing too hard when it came to her, but even if it meant being brave enough to participate in truth or dare and scary stories, it was worth it.
