Jr. was restless all week; the dance was on Friday! That's tomorrow! He was lying down on the couch with one of his legs on the floor, obviously thinking about MOMO. Suddenly, his leg begins to feel warm. He got up and looked around, and noticed Alby running out of the room. Looking at his pants, he notices that Alby needed to pee.
Jr groans out, "Alby! Get back here! You're supposed to do that in the park, or in Gaignun's room! No treats for you today." He was a little annoyed at Alby, but nothing could spoil his good mood, which was about to get even better. His mind was swimming with many thoughts, many images. Mostly, the thoughts were of MOMO. He started getting a little nervous; he thought this dance would be the perfect time to admit his true feelings to her. Among the images of MOMO racing around his mind, a big image of Gaignun appeared.
"Jr! Why is your dog taking a dump in my sock drawer?" Jr grins, Alby must have found his way to the Kukai foundation. With a smirk on his face, he apologizes, "Sorry, Gaignun. I guess I should really start training him. Not right now though, I'm preparing for tomorrow." Gaignun seems to be doing some quick thinking, "Yeah, I heard about that dance. Were you by any chance the one who told Mary to organize it?" Jr smirked and replied with "What if I was?" Gaignun realizes it was obviously him, and just leaves him alone to prepare for his little 'date' "Whatever you say. Have fun tomorrow then." Jr is glad Gaignun didn't start teasing him, so he just replied with "Thanks, I intend to."
He just decided to go sleep a few hours early. About 20 minutes later he was awoken by Alby, who jumped onto his bed and started licking him. Annoyed, he started reading one of the books he borrowed from Jin. He fell asleep about 15 pages in.
The next day passed by pretty quickly. No gnosis invasions, no U-Tic attacks, no evil senile old people trying to take over the universe, nothing. Jr found MOMO about 10 minutes before the dance, and they decided to randomly talk.
Jr starts off, "So MOMO, you ready for the dance?" MOMO is smiling the entire time, "Yep! This dance is going to be really fun!" She thinks about something for a second, and says "I wonder, how many people will show up?" Jr replies with "Well, it's an open dance, so anybody can show up from the entire Foundation. Not really sure if a lot of them will come though. They heard Alby lives here, so I'm not sure if they would dare approach the Durandal anymore." MOMO started laughing, and simply stated "Well, at least as it won't be too crowded. I like to dance without too many people staring at me." Jr thinks up a reply really quickly, "Of course it won't be too crowded, but I can even get us a private room if you want, just for the two of us." MOMO blushes a little bit, and replies with "Maybe later on, but I'd rather dance along with everybody else at the beginning. Don't want to be too alone." Jr seems to be happy that she would like to spend time with him some more. He checks his watch and informs her, "It's about to start now. Let's go, MOMO!
