Chapter Two – Rule of the Wing Man
The student of Jellicle High School had just caught wind of a dance Friday.
The lunch room was buzzing with who was going with whom, and what after parties were being held and what everyone was wearing.
Munkustrap, Mistofelees, and Skimbleshanks sat at their rectangular table in the lunch room, and the dance happened to be what they were discussing.
"You know who I'm gonna ask," Mistofelees said, wiggling his eyebrows as Bombalurina, Demeter and Jellylorum walked by.
"Demeter?" Munkustrap asked.
"No," Mistofelees answered, "Bombalurina!"
Skimble laughed out loud. "The last time you tried to hook up with her she gave you the rejection hot line number!" Munkustrap joined in the laughter as he remembered the incident that had occurred two months ago.
Tugger arrived at the table.
"Oh yeah, that was funny," he commented as he picked up a French fry.
"Who are you taking to the dance?" Skimble asked Tugger.
"Lets see…" Tugger pulled a list out of his pocket. "I have a few choices," he boasted, "Cassandra, Silabub, Electra, Tantomile or Etcetera."
"The Rum Tum Tugger strikes again!" Mistofelees cheered.
"Who are you going with?" Skimble directed at Munkustrap. Munk shrugged.
"C'mon there's gotta be someone," he encouraged.
Their friend mumbled something, and then said it again, louder this time.
"Demeter." He said.
"Then ask her!"
"I can't!"
"Dude, why not?" Tugger asked as if it were the most absurd thing in the world.
"Because –" Munk searched for the right words. "I'm not you."
"Look, it's easy to pick up girls."
Tugger looked around. "Watch."
The three guys watched in interest.
"Hey," Tugger said to a girl that had just passed by. "Hi." She replied, looking Tugger up and down.
"I like your shoes, are you a runner?" Tugger said.
"yeah," the girl replied.
"so am I, maybe we could go running sometime," Tugger asked. His friend watched in awe.
"sure."
Tugger smiled as the girl walked off.
"I can't do that!" Munkustrap protested.
"Yes, you can," Tugger sighed. "I'll be your wing man."
Munk looked over where Demeter sat.
"Fine," he agreed, finally defeated.
"This is gonna be great," Mistofelees remarked, leaning back in his chair. "I can't wait to see this."

Bombalurina, Demeter and Jellylorum sat at their corner table, talking about what they would be wearing to the dance.
"I think I'll wear like a dark purple color," Demeter thought. "Or red."
"hello ladies," Tugger had arrived at their table.
"What do you want?" Bombalurina asked.
"No, I'm not here to hit on you," he said smartly. "I need to ask Demeter something."
The girls were slightly confused. The only reason Tugger ever came over here was to hit on Bombalurina.
"So ya going to the dance with anyone?" Tugger asked Demeter.
Bombalurina's jaw nearly dropped to the floor – was Tugger – no he couldn't – she immediately forced the thought out of her mind.
"Uh, no."
"Well – okay. That's all I needed to know."
"That's kinda random," Jellylorum commented.
"No its not," Tugger replied. "My friend likes her."
"So…" Tugger said, turning to Bombalurina. She cocked an eyebrow at him.
"You busy after school?" he asked. She twirled a piece of her long black hair around her finger.
"What did you have in mind?" she asked, already knowing the answer.
"I dunno…maybe go somewhere private, get to know each other more." He said with a mischievous grin on his face.
She leaned in close to him, and their noses were almost touching. "How about," she lightly pushed him away from her. "not."
Tugger stood up. "Damn it!"
The girls laughed as Tugger walked away.
"Do you really think someone likes me?" Demeter asked, a tint of hopefulness in her voice.
"Why wouldn't someone?" Jellylorum replied.
"Who do you think it is?"
The three girls whirled around to see the direction Tugger had gone.

Tugger walked back over to the table, thinking of how many times he had been rejected by Bombalurina.
"Well?" Munk asked nervously when he arrived back at the table.
Tugger had nearly forgotten why he had gone over there besides his personal needs.
"I told her you thought she was smokin'."
"You didn't!" Munk exclaimed.
"You're right, I didn't," Tugger said. "I asked her if she was going to the dance with anyone and told her that I have a friend who likes her. That all."
"That all?"
"Actually, no. I told her you wanted to bang her."
Before Munk could reply, Tugger said:
"kidding, kidding. I'm totally joking."
"Now, about this 'wing man' business," Tugger said, "there are rules you'll need to follow."
Before he could continue, Silabub walked past. "Hi Tugger!" she called.
He nodded.
"Rule #1 – the nod?" Munk asked.
"You catch on well, my young apprentice," Tugger replied.
Sorry guys, that that chapter was so long!!
Part of this chapter was taken from Grey's Anatomy, because my mind was feeling very uncreative.
