The Plan
Chapter 3
Chase's POV
When we reached Sushi Rox, we looked around, but Michael and Lola were nowhere in sight. Why would the two of them ditch us? Wait a minute...He wouldn't!
"I wonder where they went?" Zoey said, still looking around for them.
"Yea..."I said absentmindedly. "Well, since we're here, we might as well still get some sushi."
"Yea." We walked over to one of the vacant table and looked at the menu. I practically had the menu memorized since I had worked here for so long. I ordered the special and Zoey ordered the California roll.
When Kazu came over to take our orders, he looked at me and said, "I see why you wouldn't come to work tonight. You had a date! And with Zoey! Aww, look at my little Chase is all grown up!" Wow. If I was embarrassed when I rode my bike into the flag post, just imagine how embarrassed I was now. I hung my head low.
"Kazu, we're not on a date. Chase and I are just hanging out." Thank you Zoey! She took me out of my misery.
"Oh, ok. I just assumed it was a date since Chase is-"
"KAZU! Please just take our orders!" Kazu must just love to embarrass me!
He looked over at me and saw my mad face. "Sorry. So what would you guys like?" We gave him our orders and he left. Finally! I thought he would never leave!
Zoey started to randomly laugh. "What's so funny?" I asked her.
"You and Kazu are. You should have seen you face!"
"Which one?"
"All of them! I wonder what Kazu was going to say..." Her voice trailed off and she was deep in thought.
"I think I know..." I mumbled under my breath.
"What was that, Chase?"
"Hmm? Oh I just said that I like to think about...pink elephants?" I said more as a question than a statement.
"You're such a comedian." She said while giggling. "Why do you think Michael and Lola ditched us?" That's another thing I think I know...
"Don't know." Our food came, and Kazu gave me a little thumbs up. Luckily Zoey didn't see. We ate pretty silently, making a little small talk here and there. We finally finished and the next question was what do we do next?
"Well, we could go back to my dorm if you want?" Zoey suggested. Now how could I pass that up?
"Sure." We paid, well actually I paid, left, and headed out to Zoey's dorm.
Michael's POV
We have been at Wacky Willie's since 6:45. We've been dancing ever since we arrived. Lola finally decided that we should take a breather.
"Hey. Are you having fun?" She asked me in between breaths.
"Yea. Are you?"
"Yea. I wonder what Zoey and Chase are doing right now."
"Me too. They're probably mad at us right now."
"Yea...Oh well, we sort of did them a favor bye ditching them. Ready to go back onto the dance floor?" She asked me. How could I say no to her face?
"Sure." We went back to dancing the night away. I used my best dance moves, which, if I do say so myself, were pretty good. She laughed, but not in a mocking way. She was laughing with me at my crazy moves. I'm so happy that she agreed to come with me tonight.
