Hi everyone! Next story... it's gonna be shorter than my usual ones... but it has songs in it. So enjoy! I don't own anyone except for Alicia and Patricia.

Dizzy

For the first night in years, Riza Hawkeye dressed in casual clothes; nothing too flashy, but enough to make her presentable in public. It was finally her 25th birthday and some of her old friends from secondary school had come to visit. 'More like drag me away from my apartment…' She thought.

SFX: Ding-Dong

"Coming!" She hollered at the closed door.

"Riza Romy! Come open the door!" The voice she recognized as Alicia's yelled through the plain wooden door.

"Don't call me that! You know I hate it!" She responded as she unlocked the door and allowed the two women to enter. They both hugged her at the same time, a squiggle of arms all over the place.

"Come on Ra-mo-na, don't you go by your middle name anymore?" The other woman, Patricia asked.

"Do you go by Pee-Doo anymore?" Riza said, the look of horror on Patricia's face causing her to laugh. "I didn't think so."

"I still go by 'Acey' sometimes." Alicia said, closing the door behind her and sitting down on the couch.

"That's because it sounds better than 'Pee-Doo.'" Patricia said. Riza nodded her head.

"So what's on the menu tonight girls? Dinner and a movie like old times? The three of us on our own date, no guys to mess it up?" Riza asked.

"Well, since Pee-Doo and I haven't been in Central for years, we were wanting to go see the old school, then go to the old diner and maybe hit the club there on Poule Street… What do you think?" Alicia said as Patricia gwauffed at her nickname being used again. The secondary school they had gone to for their 10th, 11th, and 12th levels of education had been turned into apartments and the old diner they went to as teenagers had been reduced to ashes in a grease fire almost three years ago. Riza shared this news with them, their faces falling only a little as they soaked in the facts that their school and favorite eatery were gone.

"Hey wait... what about the club on Poule street? Did anything happen to it?" Alicia asked.

"It's still there, but it's a bar with a dance floor now. I really don't want to end up there tonight." Riza said, sitting down on the couch next to her friends.

"Well, we have to figure something out… I invited some guys to come with us." Patricia said.

"You know, you never really got over being boy crazy; you're married now and you still drool all over the floor when you see a good lookin' guy." Alicia said as Riza laughed.

"By the way Romy, why aren't you married yet? You always had guys asking you out in secondary, but you never dated them… Hey! Remember when the club had just opened, and we dragged you there for your 18th birthday? Remember what happened?" Patricia asked.

"Oh god… that was one of the most embarrassing nights of my life…" Riza responded. She remembered that night well; her grandfather had given her a hundred dollars and told her to go out with some friends and enjoy this milestone birthday. She remembered saying she wanted to stay home with her younger brother, but her grandfather insisted that the youngster would be fine with the six older brothers who made up the rest of her family.
