A/N: I've noticed I'm the only one writing a story that isn't about The Middleman and Wendy. It's not that I don't like them, I guess the whole thought of Lacey and Pip being madly in love intrigued me... Hm. I'll have to write one about The Middleman and Wendy. Maybe one about Tyler back when he was in that band!
Also, I don't own any of these characters. Just the plot..maybe..I mean someone else could have had the same idea as me, and I didn't know..
"If he doesn't get here soon, you two can just leave without me. I mean, it's not like either of us will have fun tonight," Lacey tells Wendy and Tyler who stand in front of her dressed in formal clothes. Lacy is wearing this black halter dress that flows down to the ground. Wendy knows something is up just because Lacey's wearing her nicest dress, but she doesn't say anything. She just shakes her head knowingly.
"Tell you what," Tyler starts. He looks at Wendy then back at Lacey. "Wendy and I will go and start the car. We'll wait for you. Unless you want Pip to drive you there. In that case, I'll just give you your invitations. We'll wait, but if he's driving just call mine, or Wendy's cell. Sound good?" Lacey bites her lip, and then slowly nods her head.
"Fine." Tyler digs into his pocket, and his hand emerges with two vanilla colored envelopes.
"Here you go. Remember, call!" He grabs Wendy's hand, and Lacey watches the two walk out of the apartment. She is now left alone, and the faint sound of some person playing a piano in another apartment is heard. She plops down onto the couch, thinking it will be for a while, when she hears a knock on the door. She jumps up and answers. There stands Pip, looking very nice might I add, in a tux.
"Wow..You clean up nice." Lacey says, almost breathless, and faintly remembering her dream.
"I'm only going for the expensive alcohol. You know that right?"
"Yeah..." Although, she didn't know. She thought maybe she had a chance with him, which was really weird, considering the fact that he was a total jerk.
They walked to the elevator, and rode it in silence. When they got to the bottom, however, Pip cleared his throat. "I like your hair. You should wear it like that more often," he said quietly, without even looking at her. She stood in the same spot for a moment, placing her hand on the bun on top of her head and watched him walk towards the car.
"Uh..thanks?" She says, but he doesn't hear. He's getting into the car.
"Hi, Pip, "Wendy's saying at Lacey slides into the vehicle.
"Hey." He just nods when he says this and returns to staring out the window. Lacey sees Wendy and Tyler exchange glances before they leave.
