One Hundred Parabolas

Chapter One

Ask him out. Go on.

He'll say no.

He might say yes.

But I wear glasses.

Some guys dig girls with glasses.

But he's never dated any before that I've seen. Neither Chloe, nor Emma, nor Erin wore glasses.

So? That doesn't mean anything. Some girls are sexy in beautiful in glasses.

Yeah, but I, Honey Lemon, and not one of them.

Oh come on. Why do you think they call you Honey Lemon

Because I'm sweet and sour at the same time?

Because you're sweet and sexually appealing.

Oh come on. I'm not an Aphrodite.

Yes, you are. And your beautiful Hispanic voice. Just ask him.

"All right guys, I've got to go help my brother out of a pickle. Hiro, you know. He's so into those robot battle things, and I always end up having to save him."

"See you, Tadashi," Fred said. "Oh wait, do you think Baymax can make me glow-in-the-dark or something"

"That's the first actual scientific suggestion I've ever heard you utter," Gogo said.

"Yeah, I want glow-i-the-dark powers so I can stand in the road and act like a stoplight as the glowing aura surrounding me changes from green to red to yellow…"

"Okay, now you're talking baloney," Gogo said, turning away from him in disgust.

"Uh, Tadashi," Honey Lemon said, as he slipped a foot out the door.

"Yeah?" he asked, looking at her.

"Um, have fun."

Tadashi smiled and shut the door. Honey Lemon heard his retreating footsteps, and sighed inwardly.

"If you've got a crush on him, you should ask him out already," Gogo said.

"But I don't do the asking thing well," Honey said.

"All right. Here's the deal. If you don't ask him out by the time the convention begins in a fortnight, I will."

"But Gogo…you don't have feelings for him, do you?"

"'Course not. I only like him as a friend. But I want you to ask him out, because I'm not sure he has it in his head to ask you anywhere, and you'd make a fantastic couple. I'd root for ya."

Honey saw that Fred had left the room. She was glad he hadn't overheard the conversation.

"All right. I'll ask. But if he says no, I won't be cheerful."

"If he says no you can always ask Fred out."

"Now I know you're pulling my leg," Honey said, returning to her test tubes and pipettes.
