HEY GUYS .
EMAIL ME AND I WILL SEND YOU PICTURES OF THE spent the rest of the lesson planning on how to get out of the house without Lauren knowing they where leaving together. They came up with an elaborate plan that would require lots of work.
This was the quiet Lauren associated with making out.
That night they prepared the plan.
Amanda Locked herself in the bathroom and changed into her dress. It was the black ball gown that they had cut off of Erik...It was the only nice thing she that was in the house...that was wearable.
she had sewed up the seams they had cut and it looked ravishing on Amanda. It was a shoulder less gown the top was made out of velvet and the bottom out of many different fabrics. It had sequins sew into the top most layer. So she looked like a model. She set about fixing her hair. She pulled it into curlers and left them to set. when she pulled them out the light brown curls spun around her shoulders. She pulled the top half of her hair into a bun on the top of her head. When she did her make up she put on dark mascara and eye liner. Green glittery eye shadow and a little blush... that she stole from Lauren's bag along with cherry flavored lip gloss. She put in dangley starkly quartz earings and a black velvet choker with a red heart locket in the middle. She looked stunning. She dusted herself off with silver glitter. Erik was working his magic in the living room.
"Lauren!" he yelled. She was caught in a trance of a book. This was the fifth time he called her.
"Lauren! SAM IS DROWNING!"
"WHAT!" she jumped up. He sighed.
"Never mind. Listen, here's some cash, go out for a bit with Sam and have some coffee.
Lauren was watching his mouth move. But she wasn't paying attention. All she caught was "Coffee"
"Yeah sure. Okay." She took the money and she left.
"That was too easy."
"HAVE FUN ON YOUR SECRET DATE!" she yelled from the lake. He shook his head and went to change. It was the suit Amanda had bought for him. She said that it was a little odd to go to an opera in a suit from the 1900's. He messed his hair up the way Lauren said was fashionable these days. It looked like he just woke up...How was this fashionable? He walked out and saw Amanda sitting in a armchair. When she stood up his breath caught in his chest. He coughed several times.
"You okay?" She asked
He began stumbling for a complement.
"you uh...Look better in it than I did." He said..
"Thanks." She said sarcastically. She took his Arm and they walked to the boat.
When they arrived to where it should have been tied. It wasn't there,
Apparently they hadn't thought about Lauren taking the boat.
Erik showed Amanda another passage he had made.
"Why didn't you show this to us earlier it would have saved a lot of trouble!"
"I like to see you suffer." he grinned.
Erik stole a copy of ticket sales and found a completely empty box above the grand tier. They found their seats and soon the opera started. Erik was immediately enthralled. Amanda had to get into the habit of listening to French. But by the end of the first act she too was lost in the beauty of song. Amanda's hand found Erik's when the main character's lover died. The other hand was fiddling with her locket. A tear slipped from her eye farthest away from Erik so he didn't see it. When the cast came out for curtain call. Erik and Amanda slipped out to beat the crowd. They left for dinner.
"so... where do you want to go?" Erik said. They where walking though the park.
"I would kill for some meat." She said.
"Well in order to obtain meat one must do the killing." Erik said with a smile.
"true... well are you in the mood for a nice dinner, or a fast food resterant?"
"I don't feel like staying in a place with lots of people." Erik said.
"There was enough people at the opera."
"True." Amanda said.
She suddenly stopped short.
"what?" Erik asked.
"Is that...what I think it is?" Amanda said slowly.
"What?"
"I think.."She was peering into the distance.
"That there is a McDonald's over there."
"Whats that?"
"A little piece of home, come on."
She pulled Erik to the resterant and nearly screamed for joy.
"we can eat here if you want." Erik said.
"Yes! I'll be right back. What do you want?"
"I don't know..."Erik said, Pretending he knew exactly what they had here.
"Hamburgers it is then." she said and dispeared through the doors.
She returned with two bags, and four cups. Erik didn't look in his until they sat down in the park.
He unwrapped the hamburger..whatever that was. And looked at it suspiciously.
"Whats in it?"
"Meat..Lots of meat..Lettuce, Pickles, onions, and cheese."
"What are these golden sticks?"
"French Fries."
"I see."he bit into Burger, and soon dug in. It was amazing! The fries where even better. She handed him a cup.
"Whats in here?"
"Well.. These two have coke in them and the other two are ice cream!"
he sipped the black liquid. It bit his mouth. But it was...bubbly and good. But the absolute best part was the ice cream. It had Oreo cookies in it...whatever those where. Amanda leaned against the arm of the bench and put her feet up. They talked and Laughed and by the end of the night Erik had his feet in Amanda's lap and her's in his. They talked about the opera, and Amanda made random comments about the stars. And when Erik looked at his watch next it read- 3:45 am.
Amanda was asleep. He gently shook her awake and they made their way home.
Lauren was sitting in the living room when they got back. Her eyes where blood shot.
There was coffee cups all over the floor, table, and some where neatly placed on the bookshelf.
"E-erik." she giggled.
He stared at the mess.
"You gave me two hundred dollars." she burst out laughing.
"I did what?"
"WHAT WAS I SUPOSSED TO DO!" She yelled
"you bought...two hundred dollars worth of coffee?"
"Yep!" she started Laughing. Amanda looked at Lauren like she was a lunatic...and she was.
"Erik." Amanda said.
"Thank you for the wonderful evening. I give you permission to yell at Lauren. I am going to bed." she kissed Erik's cheek...mask. And left for her room. When she left Erik looked at Lauren and said.
"Lauren. If I wasn't in such an amazing mood...I would kill you. But you are so paying me back. Good night."
"Happy Birthday!" Lauren giggled.
She did Cartwheels and sumer salts. But she couldn't fall asleep. She pulled out a sleeping aid from her bag.
For those under the age of 21 take one half.
The label read.
She took five.
"Ha!" she said.
"Take that you stupid label writing loos-"
She fell on the floor fast asleep.
