Tanith's Pov
"Okay Tanith, truth or dare?" Valkyrie asked with a wicked grin.
Tanith bit her lip and thought hard. She knew Val would make the most of either choice, and there was one question she really didn't want Val to ask her. She hesitated for one second further. "Dare." Valkyrie rolled her eyes.
"Fine, I dare you to call Ghastly, using your phone and tell him how sexy he looks and to come visit you and then hang up on him." Val could not wipe that smile of her face.
"What!" I screamed. "He'll kill me, or at least look at me funny when I see him next!"
"He won't even know it's you. Just speak in a random accent then hang up straight after and there is no way he can connect it to you. Or is the great, ass kicking Tanith Low afraid of getting funny looks?"
"Ugh, Okay! But if he does find out, I'm telling him it was you."
"Whatever, Tanith."
Valkyrie's Pov
Ring, Ring
"Hello?" The voice answered from the other end of the phone. "What could you possibly want at this hour?"
"Hey, baby, have I ever told you just how sexy you look, cause you really are" Tanith said in an Irish accent. Wow, she actually sounds like she means it, I will have to look into this.
"Who is this?" Ghastly asked.
"I'm really bored and lonely tonight, and I was wondering if you wanted to come to my place and have some fun. Valkyrie knew that the way Tanith was saying fun would have made Ghastly blush a deep red.
"Tell me who you are right now!" He yelled.
By now Valkyrie was on the floor clutching her stomach and holding her hand over her mouth, trying to stop the hysterical laugh trying to come out of her mouth. Even Tanith cracked a smile and although she had completed the dare and could hang up now, in a fit of bravery and Tanithness, she kept speaking.
"I'm your dream honey, and I really want to see you." Now Tanith too was holding in hysterical giggles. And being preoccupied by holding in her laughter, she had accidently dropped the Irish accent without realizing it. Tanith looked at Valkyrie and Valkyrie looked at Tanith, and seeing each other in the same position as themselves pushed them over the edge. They burst out laughing. Then shut up almost instantly, hoping Ghastly wouldn't hang up on them. There was silence on the other end of the phone, then a small chuckle that the girls almost missed hearing.
"I would really love to, I mean it, but I have obligations at the moment. He said but I'd love to hang out tomorrow." He said. The smiles on the two girls faces instantly dropped. Tanith was confused and looked at Valkyrie, who shrugged and gestured at her to continue.
"Uh, sure babe, see you then." She said and hung up, still not realizing she had continued talking in her normal voice. However, Valkyrie had she went pale as a ghost.
"Tanith, do you realize what you did!" she cried.
"No, wh-" then Tanith did remember what she did and went even paler then Valkyrie, then went slightly less tense after a second and a sigh of relief escaped her lips.
"No it's okay Valkyrie, strange as it was, he agreed and didn't tell me off, which means he must not have recognized my voice.
"Or" Valkyrie said "he might have realized it was you and played along, to turn the joke on you."
"Shit! Oh man, I didn't think of that" she had gone even paler than before.
Now it was Valkyrie who got the evil smile on her face as she said "or maybe he likes you and did wanted to come over and um…have fun." Now she was on the floor, not bothering to hide the hysteria anymore. Tanith glared at her.
"That is not funny Valkyrie Cain." She said, pouting.
Oh yes it is.
Then the phone rang. Tanith froze. Valkyrie grinned and with an evil smile, gestured for Tanith to pick up the phone.
"You pick it up!" Tanith said frantically.
"Oh no, it's your responsibility to answer it babe" she said in a bad imitation of Tanith's voice. Tanith gave he a dirty glare and picked up the phone.
"Hello?" she said, her voice cracking.
"Hey Tanith, it's Ghastly, I need you guys to come in and help me pick the style for the dress I'm making for my date tomorrow?"
"You have a date?" Tanith asked, her face sad. Valkyrie added it to her list of coincidences.
I hopefully will when I ask her, but she is so beautiful and mischievous, I'm not sure what she will say, but I want the dress made just in case."
Valkyrie knew Tanith wouldn't want to go because her face was likely to give her away.
"Um Ghastly, I'm actually-" She managed to say before Ghastly interrupted.
"Thanks a bunch Tanith, bye." He said and hung up.
Tanith's Pov
Shit, shit, shit, what am I going to do? Tanith thought frantically as she raced down Ghastly's street with Valkyrie arms wrapped around her waist so she didn't fall of Tanith's motorbike.
"Just be calm" Valkyrie said.
Calm, yeah right.
Valkyrie knocked on Ghastly's door, as Tanith was too scared to do it.
"Hey guys, come on in," he said as he opened the door. He seemed nervous for some reason. The two girls walked into his shop and sat down on the couch as Ghastly brought out some material. Val and Tanith looked through the clothes. Brown leather tunic, a pair of pants pants and long coat. Tanith snorted.
"Copy cat, this looks like something I would wear, though you have to admit it, your date has good taste.
"That she does" Ghastly replied.
"But she still needs to find her own clothes to wear, we can't have another person walking around looking like me." Tanith rolled her eyes.
"But she is you." Ghastly said. It took Tanith a second to realize what he was saying, and then her jaw dropped. Ghastly continued.
"So what do you say Tanith? Will you come on a date with me tomorrow night?"
"Of course" Tanith whispered. Valkyrie grinned. They were so cute.
As the girls were walking out the door, Ghastly couldn't help calling out.
"Tanith?"
"Yes" she asked, her smile wide. Ghastly grinned.
"Do you really think I'm sexy?"
