"You know, flying home and back really makes jet-lag more hang-overish." Clayton said rubbing the back of his head. Both Penelope and Tom groaned in agreement, but Keria was once again happily bobbing her head to her cassette.
"Is there honestly anyway to get those things out of her ears?" Penelope whispered to Tom. Tom shook his head.
"You see she has developed a case of music-addict-itis. All she will do all day is listen to music, even when the offender," he motioned towards the cassette player. "Is not in use."
"Get bent." Keria responded, finally lifting the headphones off. "We have to find an apartment, get jobs, and get food, not necessarily in that order."
"Well I'll hail us a cab." Clayton said as they walked to the curb. He suddenly began to spastically whistle and try to get the cabs attention through weird dance moves.
"Hey stud!" Tom called. "Thriller went out in the 80's!" Clayton stopped and turned and glared.
"If you're so confident, let's see you give it a try." Tom walked over to the curb.
"I think I will." Clayton walked back over to the where the girls were standing.
"Twenty says he doesn't get one to even slow down."
"Call." Keria replied.
"HEY JACKASS! WHAT THE HELL!?!?!" Tom yelled down the street after a cab. "THAT'S RIGHT MAN I'M TALKING TO YOU!" Tom yelled. Penelope turned to Keria.
"Men!" Penelope scoffed, and with that strutted over to the curb, pushed Tom out of the way and lifted the cuff of her jeans, showing off her ankle. Immediately 5 cabs stopped in front of her. Tom and Clayton gaped at each other in shock while Keria just laughed and high-fived Penelope.
"So where are we going first?" Clayton asked the girls as they loaded the crap into the back.
"You guys get to pick I mean since you're paying for the cab." Keria informed then as she got in.
"WHAT?" Tom and Clayton both said.
"YOU LOST HER!" both Keria and Penelope shouted back.
"You know what…?" Tom started but the cab driver interrupted.
"Where to boys, you got the meter running." Tom picked Penelope up and scooped her into the car as Clayton squished in next to Keria.
"To anywhere that has a good apartment." Tom replied. The cab driver sighed.
"Then this is going to be a very long day." The cabbie said, putting the cab into 'drive'
