It's Always Sunny In Highschool
Chapter Two: The Diss
Dee sighed, agitated. She didn't want to fake that her brother was a nice person just so he could win over a girl who clearly wanted nothing to do with him. The six hadn't officially met until Freshmen year of high school but Mac and Dennis had sort of become friends in the eighth grade and he had told Dee that Dennis had fallen for his and Charlie's friend, Erin Burke. The Burke's, like her and Dennis's family, were wealthy. Dee had just thought that Dennis only liked Erin because she was well off like himself. This hadn't been true, well at least not just part of it anyway. Dennis was obsessed with the poor girl. Erin was one of those unattainable girls. Not because she had guys falling all over her or she was popular. She was just out of Dennis's league altogether. She was attractive to the eye but she didn't flaunt it constantly. She was like one of those independent heroines in movies who needed no man to save them. She hung out with the McPoyles and Charlie and didn't care for the social light that most girls, like Dee, begged and strived for. Unfortunately Dennis hated his sister because Dee had the one perk he didn't, she and Erin were friends. Though Dennis saw this as an upside and very useful. Dee just wished he'd leave the girl in peace.
Dee found Erin at her locker, for once not surrounded by the group she hung out with. Dee thought of herself very highly and saw guys like Rickety Cricket and the McPoyles as beneath her and wished Erin would some day do the same but Erin's mind worked differently. She wasn't shallow or selfish. But she wasn't insecure either. She was the optimistic, no-nonsense, carefree, 'I do as I please, when I want' kind of girl. She saw reality as it was, she took from it what she wanted and didn't care about what the day brought. She made her own way. Dee kind of wished she could be like her friend but considering if the rumors were true, Dee was just glad to be herself.
"Hey Sweet Dee", Erin smiled at her, "What's going on?"
Dee smiled, pretending to be casual, "Uh nothin' much. Just uh heading to lunch", she felt stupid for doing this and she really didn't want to, "Hey, you remember my brother right? Well uh he wanted you to meet him at the bleachers for lunch".
"Oh?" Erin quirked an eyebrow.
Dee saw this plan failing already, "Mmm-mm! Yeah, he totally wants to talk to you". She sounded like that girl friend from teenage movies who tells their friend that a boy wants to talk to them. And everything just blows up from there.
Erin just shrugged, "Yeah, okay. Thanks", she smiled and shut her locker and then was on her way.
What Dee didn't notice was that Dennis had followed her and was pretending to be standing casually in the hallway. He had hidden himself between the wall and the end of the lockers, peering around the corner and trying to make sure he wasn't seen. Dee turned and saw her brother peeking around the corner. She made a rather pissed off face at him and walked over.
"I hope your happy. Don't do anything to ruin her life dipshit", Dee threw at him before stalking off.
Dennis just smiled to himself and made his way to the bathroom to clean himself up before heading out to the bleachers.
Charlie, Mac, Schmitty, Dooley, the McPoyle twins and a few other guys were under the bleachers. It was better than sitting in an over crowded lunch room and despite the warm temperature outside, the bleachers were nicely shaded. Charlie had seen the Waitress and her friends come outside and he insisted they come outside too. Though the girls had long disappeared around the corner of the building, probably smoking or something near the dumpsters in the parking lot. There were conversations about homework, maybe throwing a party at some point, the dance next week and such. Mixed conversations about girls and Nicki Potnick's car having to be towed again and get a new break belt after last week's escapade in the park. It was quiet for a long time until footsteps were heard on the bleachers.
"Who's that?" Charlie asked.
"Dunno", Mac answered.
The boys looked around until they saw female shoes on the bleachers. Black flats and knee socks were seen. Mac and the guys hurriedly looked down at their hands because the owner of the feet and legs was Erin. Only Ryan and Liam looked invested.
"Guys, not cool", Charlie hissed, waving his hand for them not to look up, despite the fact the gap between the bleachers were hard to see through anyway and seeing up her skirt was harder than it might have been.
Dennis arrived a moment later and now everyone was looking up in interest.
Erin had been standing on the bleachers, arms folded and turned when she heard footsteps on the bleachers. She was unaware of the guys being under the bleachers, watching. Dennis walked up to her, doing this casual, sexy stride he decided to use to compliment his entire body so she could feast her eyes on what he had to offer. He didn't realize how ridiculous he looked.
"Hi Dennis", Erin said in a way that was both polite but not all that thrilled.
"You know me? I'm honored", Dennis replied, smiling at her.
The redhead dropped her arms and placed her hands on her hips, "Dee said you wanted to talk to me?" She had to admit Dennis was pretty cute and she was pretty attracted to him but on the other hand she swore she would never get involved with him. It was nothing personal or against him. But she had to protect herself and if it meant never having to lay in the same bed as him, so be it.
"I was hoping we could talk about the dance next week. Maybe talk over dinner, a movie, pizza maybe?" Dennis offered, trying too hard and coming off a bit forward. He was not giving up, even if it killed him.
"You do realize its girls choice right?" Erin asked, quirking a thin light red eyebrow.
"Lets not complicate everything here", he laughed, walking up to her, "We both know what we want", he took her hands without her slapping him, "Let me demonstrate my value to you".
There were some quiet frowning, raised looks and a couple looks of disgust at Dennis's attempts to woo the redhead. The entire group under the bleachers knew the poor guy had no chance. Schmitty frowned and turned his head in the direction of the McPoyles, pointing a finger, "Didn't she already ask one of you to go with her?"
"Guilty", Ryan waved his hand lazily.
"Poor, poor Dennis", Liam muttered, not really caring what was about to happen.
"How did she choose?" Mac looked as though someone had asked him a hard Algebra question.
"She probably just-", Charlie stopped and gaped, "Wait! How did you already get a date? Mac and I don't have dates".
"Woman's choice", Ryan shrugged.
"So everyone here has a date?" Mac asked.
Everyone (minus Liam) raised their hand. Mac and Charlie just sighed and hung their heads.
Erin let go of Dennis's hands and gave him a rather sad smile, "I'm sorry Dennis. But I already asked someone to the dance", she shrugged her shoulders, "And your dating Maureen Ponderosa. I can't every well date a guy who's dating another girl so he can have his cake and eat it too", she gave him a look, "And your not exactly my type". She reached up and cupped his chin just a little before letting go and then moving away from him.
"What do you mean"- He turned in shock, "What do you mean I'm not your type?" He yelled after her. When she was out of sight, he fully flipped out. "God damn it! Son of a bitch!", he started to talk to himself, "I had her in the palm of my and uugghh! I can't believe that didn't work!"
Just below him, the McPoyle brothers were trying to control their laughter. A few of the other guys were laughing too but just because it was hilarious to see Dennis pissed off. Mac and Charlie just glanced at each other. Dennis was too mad to notice any of them under the bleachers. He stalked off after a minute or two of cooling off. When lunch was over, there was heavy tension in the air. However Mac was too busy to find a girl who might ask him to the dance to care about what happened to Dennis. He'd deal with Dennis once he found a desperate girl who might ask him.
Desperate? He knew desperate!
"Hey Dee!"
The blond turned to see Mac coming up to her.
"Yeah?" She asked.
"You didn't get the courage up to ask anyone to the dance did you? Cause your afraid you'll throw up in your mouth if you tried?" Mac wanted to know.
"What do you want Ronnie?" Dee threw at him just because she felt like smacking him but she didn't.
"Nobody calls me that anymore! Look, why don't you ask me to the dance. Dennis has a date. Ryan McPoyle is going with Erin. And Charlie went off to find that waitress chick he's been blathering on about since forever", Mac told her, "And I don't want to be dateless", he whined, ringing his hands.
Dee rolled her eyes. She really didn't want to go to a dance with one of her brothers friends. But at that moment she saw Matthew Mara coming towards them and she decided she'd at least have fun and not have to worry about throwing up in her mouth or being miserable for one night.
"Alright. Do you want to go to the dance with me?" Dee asked.
"Yes! Thank you Dee! But I'm not going to kiss you or anything so don't get any ideas", Mac threw in before leaving her by her locker.
"Asshole", She muttered, shaking her head.
Rickety Cricket had heard Dee say yes to Mac and he felt his whole insides shatter just like his legs. Dee didn't notice him standing there with his mouth hanging open and looking as though he might break down and cry right there.
Charlie had followed the Waitress to the girls bathroom and waited for her to come out. He acted as though he were just waiting for a friend and turned and surprised her as soon as she came out of the bathroom. She wasn't expecting him to be standing there.
"Good god Charlie what the hell?" She screamed at him.
"Hey! I didn't know I'd see you here. Look I know we kinda got off on the wrong foot or floor or whatever but-" He started to say.
"Whatever it is. The answer is no. So leave me alone, okay?" The Waitress snapped.
"Yeah but look we could have a great time going to the dance next week-" Charlie continued as though he hadn't heard her.
"No", The Waitress answered.
"Are you sure? You didn't ask anyone did you?" Charlie asked.
"I'm going with Brad Fisher, Charlie. So go away", she stated and then proceeded to walk away from him hurriedly.
Charlie just stood there and watched her walk away, "Okay, I'll um see you tomorrow!" He waved after her despite the fact she didn't give him a second glance.
