AN: I don't own the Pryors or Tommy. I do however own Christine and you
may not have her!
I hope this is a little longer that before!
A Late Night Talk part 4
"Hello? Oh hey JJ. What brings you here?" Tommy asked opening the door. "Hey Tommy. Do you remember that girl you introduced me to? On Saturday?" "Yeah, Christine. Why do you ask?" "Well, umm. I was wondering if you could get her number for me," JJ stared at his shoes. Tommy smiled. "So, you finally decided to get over Beth, huh?" "Let's just say I had a long discussion with myself and decided waiting for Beth isn't the best thing to do." "Good guy!" Tommy said. "Come on in. I'll see if I can find that number." JJ walked inside and was suddenly overflowed with memories from his and Tommy's childhood. Tommy walked over to a table and found a phonebook. "Hmmm," He flips through the pages. "Here it is. Christine Lowe. You sure you want the number?" "Yes, Tommy. I want the number. Now, will you stop being such a jerk and just give me the number already!" "Fine." Tommy handed JJ a slip of paper with the number on it. "Thanks Tommy. I really appreciate it." "No problem. What are friends for?" "Yeah, well. I have to go. I told my mom I'd be home early." "Alright. Call me and tell me what she says alright?" "Yeah, sure Tommy. I'll talk to ya later." "Right, later JJ." Tommy said as JJ walked down the road. *Am I actually going to do this? Actually 'go out' with another girl??* JJ thought about his dilemma all the way home. "Hi mom. Hey Thrill." JJ said walking in the door. "Hi JJ," Helen said. "How was school today?" "It was alright. What's for dinner?"
"Tuna casserole." Helen said without looking up from her papers. JJ smiled. She had told him once that whenever she didn't feel like cooking, she made a tuna casserole. "I'm going up to my room to do homework, alright?" "Yeah, that's fine." JJ grabbed his bag and walked up the stairs. He heard Meg's music all the way down from her room. JJ walked into his room and shut the door,
He dropped everything by his bed except for the paper with Christine's number on it. JJ just starred at it for a while deciding on what to do. After about a half an hour, he decided he would call her, but not now, after dinner. JJ got out his books and started working on his homework, until he heard his father call him down for supper. JJ walked down the stairs and washed for dinner. He walked into the kitchen and sat at the table with his family. "Great of you to join us JJ." Jack said bowing his head for grace. "Oh Good Lord, Please bless this food we are about to eat. Amen." Jack said. With that, everyone started to eat and talk. Meg and Patty shared stories about school and Jack told about work. JJ remainedsilent through the whole meal, only speaking when he was spoken to. JJ started to daydream about Beth, but caught himself. "JJ could you teach me how to run as fast as you?" Will said interrupting his thoughts. JJ glanced up, "Sure we'll work on it after dinner, but first I have to make a phone call. May I be excused?"
Helen smiled, "Sure JJ. But come back for desert. I made some cupcakes. "Alright, Thank you." JJ said standing up from the table. JJ walked over to the phone and starred at it. He took the piece of paper from his pocket and starred at that too. Finally, JJ reached for the phone and dialed Christine's number: 552- 9716. "Hello? Lowe residence, Christine speaking." "Umm, Hi, Christine. This is JJ Pryor. We me on Saturday?" "Yeah, I remember you. Tommy introduced us." "Right. Well, I was wondering, ummm. Would you like to go out with me this weekend?" JJ stammered. It had been a long time since he had to do that. "Wow. That was sudden." JJ blushed. "I'd love to go out with you." "You would?! Great! How is Saturday about 5?" "Sounds great" "Wonderful. I'll call you later in the week and make sure everything's still on." "Sure, what's your number? Maybe I'll call you first." "My number is 553-4261" "Great. I'll see you later. Bye!" Christine said. "Bye" JJ was so happy he almost skipped out the door with Will.
