Chapter 4: Are You Going To The Dance?
The next day in Bayville High, there was a flier on the bulletin board which had an announcement of an upcoming event. As the students who were interested saw the announcement which read:
Fall Dance On October 28th
Tickets on sale now.
$5 for single
$8 for couples
Basically, everyone started to chat around whom is going to ask whom to the dance before they heard the bell ring as everyone went to their first class of the day. With Algebra class, Kurt was busy taking notes from the teacher's lecture as he was keeping up the pace. Soon enough, Algebra class finished as all of the students went to their second period class.
Unfortunately for Wanda, after Todd saw the flier on the bulletin board, he jogged over to her with one question in mind.
"Hey Sweetums." Todd gave his best smile at her which wasn't saying much judging by his yellow teeth.
"Ugh! What do you want?"Wanda groaned already knowing the answer.
"Are ya gonna go to the dance that is comin' up?"
Wanda silently groaned some more. She knew that Todd was going to ask her that question. To say the least, she was getting angry but tried to remain cool.
"What's it to you?"
"Well, I just wanna know if ya wanna go with me?"
With veins twitching on her forehead Wanda replied, "Listen, you annoying little wart face! I don't like you. I never liked you ever since you showed up at junior high. So, get it through that thick skull of yours; I. Don't. Like. You!"
Of course, Todd just shook it off before he walked away.
"Se ya in class sweetums." He said disappearing into his next class.
Wanda growled in frustration before she got to Mr. McCoy's class. After entering the classroom, Wanda merely slammed her biology textbook onto her desk which startled the students who were seated near her seat causing them to jump back in shock before they saw her take her seat as she let out a frustrated sigh.
"Vhat's vrong?" Kurt asked, brows furrowed.
"My day is getting worse because Todd keeps on bugging me. On top of that, he had the nerve to ask me to that dance that's coming up. That hard-head won't listen at all."
Placing a hand on Wanda's shoulder, "Brighten up Vanda. Zhings always get better after zhe vorst part of zhe day ends." He said giving her a sympathetic look.
Wanda was shocked after hearing Kurt say that. In fact, his words kept on echoing in her mind. However, she shook it all off as Mr. McCoy entered the classroom to begin his lecture.
During lunch, Wanda took a seat at a table where Kurt was sitting with his sister Anna, Scott, Jean, Kitty, and Remy as she sighed in frustration.
"Todd annoying you again?" Jean asked.
"Really? What gave that away?" Wanda retorted sarcastically.
"Like, what did he do now?" Kitty asked.
"The little warthog just won't leave me alone. I mean, he even asked me to that dance already when it's not even close to that day yet."
Wanda's friends gave her a sympathetic look as Anna swallowed some food in her mouth.
"Ya poor, poor thang. Ah feel sorry for havin' such a curse with Todd." Anna said.
Wanda sighing, "What am I gonna do with him?"
"Don't worry. I'm sure you'll figure out something."Jean reassured her.
"Hopefully, by the end of this damn semester. If I graduate and never see Todd in any of the colleges that I'm going to, that'll be my ultimate graduation gift."
After they ate their lunches, the teens threw away the leftover trash into a nearby trash bin before they walked into the halls to their separate lockers. However, with Kurt, as he was getting his locker door open, got his textbook out, and then closed the locker door, he found Todd leaning on the lockers beside him arms crossed.
"So, you gonna ask my Wanda out to that dance, creep?"
Letting out a frustrated sigh before he faced Todd, "Vhat do ya vant now?"
"I want ta know, if you're gonna ask my Wanda to the dance?"
"Listen, Vanda can make her own choices, and vhen vas she yours anyvay?"
Kurt's statement made Todd silent for a moment before speaking again.
"All I'm gonna tell yas is to stay away from Wanda German boy, got it?"
"Not possible. Besides, how can I stay avay from her if she has mein classes?"
Todd just grunted before he walked off muttering incoherently as Kurt went to his own class.
By the end of the day, Kurt and Anna returned home after they finished their homework at a nearby library since they have a free 6th period class. After Kurt got dressed into some clothes he usually lounges around in, he just flipped through the channels while Raven was busy washing the dishes as Anna barely came downstairs when the phone rang. Kurt decided to answer.
"Hello?"
To his surprise, Remy was on the other line.
"Bonjour Kurt, is yer sis home?"
"Sure, let me get her."
Kurt had a mischievous grin as he took the phone off his ear.
"Anna, someone's on zhe phone for you."
Anna was curious on who was calling her as she got up and brought the phone to her ear.
"Hello?" she said.
"Bonjour cherie."
"Remy? What the...? How did ya get mah numbah?"
"Your brothah Kurt gave it to moi."
Anna turned to glare at Kurt as she continued to talk with Remy.
"What do ya want?"
"Non cherie, but I was wonderin' if ya wanna go with moi to te dance tat's comin' up?"
As a blush crept on her face she stammered, "Uh...su-sure. Ah'll go with...with ya."
"Well then cherie, I'll pay for the tickets for you and moi and I'll see you there soon. Ciao Cherie".
"Uh...c-c-ciao."
Hanging up the phone, she glared at Kurt who was smiling sheepishly as she continued to glare at her brother with one thing in her mind.
"KURT! AH'M GONNA KILL YA!"
Anna chased Kurt upstairs as the German boy managed to get to his room, closed the door, and locked it as Anna got to the door and found it locked.
Fist pounding on door, "Kurt, ya bettah open this door!"
"No!"
Anna continued to pound on Kurt's bedroom while Raven listened to the whole thing from the kitchen as she smiled, placed her hand on her forehead while she lowered her head slightly, and shook her head.
"What my kids won't do these days."
Meanwhile, Anna still continued to pound on the door as she STILL continued to rant on.
"Kurt! Ya bettah tell meh why THE HELL ya gave Remy mah numbah!"
"I did because he von't stop buggin' me for it. Besides, he also said he vas too scared to ask you for it."
Anna stopped pounding on Kurt's bedroom door as she realized that Kurt didn't give Remy their house number as a prank, but because Kurt gave in after getting bugged multiple times and the fact that a boy, a Cajun boy no less, was scared to ask her for it. And so, Anna simply apologized to Kurt and left to her room. Of course, Kurt unlocked the door slowly, just to be on the safe side, before he slowly opened the door of his bedroom and saw that the hallway was clear and before he knew it, Anna suddenly popped out from her room and delivered a punch to Kurt's arm before he could react.
"Next tahme ya do that again, Ah'm gonna hit where it really hurts."
"Point taken. Kurt replies before he rubs the area where he was punched on the arm "Ow. Damn, zhat hurts!"
Then, Anna went inside her room, closed the door and locked it as Kurt did the same thing.
The next day, since it was a holiday for the students, Kurt and Anna decided to hang out with Scott, Jean, Kitty, Remy, and Wanda at the Dark Side as they were all playing pool. However, Anna easily dominated the tables since she beat everyone who faced her. As she was playing against Remy, Wanda, who was sitting next to Kurt on the seats near some tables, decided to take the opportunity to ask the German boy a question she had in mind.
"Hey Kurt."
"Ja?"
Playing with her hair nervously, "Listen, um...I was wondering...well, will you go to that dance with me?"
Kurt was shocked at Wanda's question. In fact, Wanda's personality reminded him of Amanda Sefton before he and his sister moved to Bayville. With that in mind, he only had one answer.
"Sure...Vanda, I'll go vith you."
Kurt's acceptance caused Wanda to smile sweetly before she hugged the German boy for five seconds. It was short, but sweet.
After Anna defeated Remy, the group left the Dark Side and went to the movie theaters to see the movie, "The Surrogates" for a while before every teen went their separate ways home after the movie finished to await the next day where school will commence.
After school the next day Rogue decided to go shopping for something to wear to the dance. She hardly believed that a leather skirt and tank was appropriate. Also Kurt wanted some new clothes since Wanda asked him out.
Looking at a rack of dresses, "Wat ya thank ah should wear Kurt?"
"How am I supposed to know?"
"Kurt!"
"I like ze purple one."
"Really, I'll go try it on."
Kurt watched his sister head to the dressing room. After a few moments the school's bad boys; Pietro, Lance, Fred, and Todd came in. Kurt really didn't want them to see him so he hid behind a tall shelf of shirts.
Of course the boys came to the other side of the shelf.
Lance spoke first, "Kitty wants me to match her …"
"Don't be stupid Lance," Pietro said, "No guy in their right mind would want to wear a powder blue suit."
"You're right."
"Who are you going with?" Fred asked Pietro.
"Yo Fred the question is who he isn't going with." Todd said nudging his friend in the shoulder.
"I'm only taking Heather, Courtney, and Gwen to the dance. If I'm lucky I might get the new girl too."
"Aren't you just the over achiever." Lance said rolling his eyes.
"Who are you going with Todd?" Fred asked.
"Wanda."
"Gross! Can you stop trying to get with my sister?" Pietro said picking up a grey shirt to try on.
"Hey did you see that?" Lance asked. He could have sworn he saw someone looking at him. Kurt tried to take off and ran smack into his sister.
"Well?" she demanded tapping her foot.
"Can ve umm...talk about zhis somevhere else sister?" Kurt whispered urgently trying to get past her.
Sucking in air, "Ah've been lookin all ovah the store fer ya fer te past thirty minutes an when Ah finally find ya ya tell meh we can talk about this latah! Have ya forgotten why weh're here Kurt or do Ah need ta remind ya … painfully!"
At her yelling the boys came around the corner to see them.
"Oh how cute. German boy is talking his sister." Todd teased.
"At least I'm taking somvone." Kurt shot back.
"Do ya or do ya not like tis dress?" Rogue asked him.
"It's perfect." Pietro spoke up.
"I'm gonna try on a new one. Play nahce Kurt while Ah'm gone."
"Anna!"
Giving Kurt an evil glare, "Ah wouldn't want ta take ya away from ya friends." She said going back to the dressing room leaving Kurt with the other boys. While she was gone Kurt was forced to endure Todd's rude remarks and constant pushing. He knew she was taking forever on purpose, but at least he managed to buy something too.
"Yo homes, have fun with your sister 'cause Sweetums and I are really going to have fun without you."
"Don't be so sure."
"Kurt, ya ready to go?" Anna asked.
"Finally!" he said throwing his arms in the air as he pushed past Todd. The dance was definitely going to be a night to remember.
