A/N- sighs happily Ahhhhhh! It feels so good to get
writing again, FINALLY. Hope you all didn't miss me too much in my
absence. Well, I must say, this was quite a close vote. While there
was two for Roger in the reviews, there was one for Francisco online
and one of my friends read it and told me off-line that they wanted
him too! This was broken when another friend told me they wanted
Roger and so........ ROGER THE CAR SALESMAN WINS!!!!!!! music and
cheers Yay! Yippe! ......
Ne-Ways, I kinda felt sorry for
Hank... he didn't get ANY votes- :( Oh well, he was a loser anyway.
Oh, since it was such a close vote, Francisco will be put in the
lineup for votes next time. Well, that's all I can think of right
now so, uh, enjoy!
P.S. – I sincerely apologize to Computer
dunce if I ever offended you with my comment on cheesy music, I in no
way meant to imply that he was a bad writer! Well, now that that's
done, on with the story!
Chapter -er, umm- Where are we at
again?- Oh, the title is-
"Half Price?"
Athena was
getting nervous. He was supposed to be there a half an hour
ago!
Who, you say?
Why, her blind date. Roger.
Her
psychiatrist had set her up. Said he was a "friend of her husband"
. That alone made Athena nervous. But oh well, Athena thought. Even
if this one screws up big time, she said she had plenty more.
But
Athena was confident (she had been listening to those motivational
tapes the psychiatrist had given her). She had even fantasized about
what he looked like, tall, dark, with strong arms, and beautiful
eyes. Then she realized she was thinking of Ares....
No! She
was not going to think about him. The psychiatrist had told her not
to think about him, to clear him from her mind, but she couldn't
help being drawn back to him in everything.
She sighed. Where
was he?
Suddenly a very fancy looking deep purple viper with
orange flames pulled up at her house.
J.L. Tinsley: Oh! My
favorite car! gasps How much more perfect could it be?!?! What a
perfect car... it couldn't be more perfect! Except maybe if it was
a silver Lotus Elite, or a red '65 convertible Mustang, or a
deep-blue corvette, or maybe a yellow Lamborghini, or-oh! A
lime-green bug car with daisy wheel hub-caps! Screams Aaaaah!
laughs This is SO awesome!
Athena: Hey, what are you doing
here-eth? Get outeth! This is my storyeth! Quit trying to steal my
thunder... no pun intended-eth!
J.L. Tinsley: Achem... first
of all, this is MY story, I AM the authoress of this pathetic excuse
of a fan fic, and second of all, I was not stealing your thunder,
and, by the way, that was REALLY lame... its your dads thunder
anyway!
Athena: Yeah, well he gave it to me-eth! Anyway, get
out-eth! You're ruining it-eth!
J.L. Tinsley: growls
You're going to regret that! Bum Bum Bum Bum!!!!! ... Disappears
into a bubble I'll be baaaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bubble posps
Eeeek!
Athena: sighs FINALLY! Now lets try that
again-eth...
...Suddenly a very fancy looking deep purple
viper with orange flames pulled up at her house.
Athena:
Oooh! I'm likin' him already-eth!
Then he stepped out.
He
looked like something out of a dream; his perfect white teeth were so
store-bought straight, and "his" hair (AKA-toupee) was flying
wildly in the wind. He walked up to the door and rang the
bell.
Athena: Okay, be cool-eth. Don't sound too eager-eth.
Takes deep breath Okay. Opens the door coy smile
Hello-eth.
Roger: Well, hello ma'am. How are you liking
it?
Athena: Um, okay I guess...
Roger: Great! I'll
have the papers ready tomorrow!
Athena: What?!?!?!? What
papers-eth?
Roger: Why the car papers, of course! big grin
Athena: Um, but I didn't, um... sighs I- wait, what
car-eth?
Roger: My viper, of course! another big grin
Athena: Well, um, I guess that's okay... I
think-eth...
Roger: Great! I hope you don't mind if we drive
it around a bit tonight, do you?
Athena: Well, I...
Roger:
Great! Now, are you ready to go?
Athena: Um, yeah I
suppose-eth.
Roger: Great! Now lets get going.
Athena:
Alright-eth.
The two entered the car and began to drive down
the street. They soon came to a nice restaurant called LeVino's.
They entered into the restaurant, and were quickly seated at a round
table with flowers and music filling the entire room.
Waiter:
May I take your order?
Roger: Uh, yes looking at menu we'll
have the... steaks. By the way sweetie, they are half price
today.
Athena: The cars-eth?
Waiter: The
steaks.
Roger: Who brought you into this?
Athena:
Hey!
Roger: No! Waiter!
Waiter: The steaks?
Roger:
The cars!
Athena: Half-price-eth?
Roger: My
baby!
Athena: gasps You have a child-eth?!
Roger:
No, you!
Athena: gasps even louder I'M your
child-eth?!?!?!?
Roger: No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You, my baby,
sugar, sweetums, whatever, are getting half price!
Athena:
WHAT?!?!? You're saying I was half price-eth?
Waiter: Are
you gonna order or not?
Roger: NO!
Waiter: Well,
sheesh, you don't have to yell it!
Roger: I mean,
yes!
Athena: gasps You mean I was... You... gasps The
physiatrist-eth! growls
Roger: No, the cars!
Athena:
What... oooooooooooooooooh! smiles and thinks she understands I get
it now-eth! I'm half price, your baby likes steak, and the waiter
wants a new car-eth! Ah! Duh! Shakes her head and looks at the menu
smiling
Roger: Er, uh, sssure, y-yeah, that's it.
Yeah.
Athena: Oh! Um waiter, I would really suggest a deep
purple viper with orange flames-eth! It's a great deal-eth! Oh, and
um, I'd like the steak please-eth!
Roger: Hey, you know they
are half price!
Waiter: swoons Oh, no!
Roger: You
know, I'm not that hungry for steak anymore. Besides, this scene is
getting kinda cheesy anyway...
Athena: Oooh, look, the cheese
cart is coming around-eth!
Roger: Great!
J.L. Tinsley:
Ughh! That has got to be the corniest thing I've ever
written...
Later
The evening seemed to fly by after
that, and at the end of the night, Roger dropped her off at her
house, happier than she could have ever dreamed she could have
been.
A/N- The end! Well, of this chapter. Now, vote for the
next lucky date of Athena- Francisco the Colombian drug lord, Jean
Claude, the feminine French cloths designer, or anyone else you think
should be in here!
