August 30, 2009 -- "Wanna Bet?"
Honestly, our dorm could keep a sitcom going for years.
I came downstairs to find Ken and Yukari outside the men's room.
"You lost the bet," Ken said simply. "I can't help you."
"Come on, Junpei," Yukari said. "It can't be that bad."
"Yes, it is!" Junpei called from inside the bathroom. "I'm not coming out!"
"What's going on?" I asked.
"Junpei and Ken-kun made a bet, and Junpei lost. Now he's being a sore loser," Yukari explained.
"Yeah, I bet Junpei-san that he couldn't keep down Fuuka-san's spaghetti sauce," said Ken. "Now he won't honor the terms."
"I thought she added those mushrooms!" Junpei called. "She didn't tell me they grew in on their own!"
I winced.
"Junpei, just come out!" Yukari said. "The sooner you do it, the sooner I can have my dress back!"
"Dress?" I asked.
Ken shrugged. "I told him that if he could keep the sauce down, I'd dress up like a girl and go to school tomorrow. But if he lost, he'd have to wear a dress..."
"He couldn't even finish his plate before he started puking," Yukari broke in.
Junpei burst out of the men's room. "There. Happy now?!" He was indeed wearing Yukari's fur-trimmed dress. The skirt barely went to his thighs, which were covered in pink sparkly tights. His feet were stuffed into Yukari's high-heeled shoes. Not only were they too small; they were starting to split from having to support his weight. Instead of his cap, he wore a fluffy black wig with an oversized pink ribbon tied in it. He also wore a string of pink pearls around his neck, and shiny plastic bracelets around both wrists.
But that wasn't the worst of it. Junpei was wearing makeup. There was red stuff on his cheeks, mascara on his eyelashes, bright pink lipstick...he looked like a clown.
Yukari and Ken both howled with laughter.
I couldn't help it. I chuckled.
"Senpai..." Junpei whined.
"I know I shouldn't be laughing," I said. "But look at yourself!"
Junpei put his face in his hands and sobbed.
"Don't cry," Yukari said. "You'll smear your mascara!"
"All right," Ken said. "Go around the dorm three times and make sure everyone sees you at least twice."
"You look cute, Stupei," Yukari said.
Junpei stomped off, flipping Yukari and Ken off as he went.
Author's Note: Yes, I'm aware someone beat me to this idea. But I couldn't resist the idea of Junpei being forced to wear Yukari's dress.
