Chapter 8
"So Loralei, what do you think you and Luke are doing tonight?" Sookie asked.
"Well, I don't know, Rory and Logan are coming too."
"Well mom, what type of clothes are we supposed to wear?"
"Sexy ones" Was her reply.
We all laughed. Luke then came and set our food down. He also sat down a bowl of fruit.
"Luke," I said, "What is that?"
"Fruit"
"What is it doing at our table?" I asked poking it with a fork.
"You're supposed to eat it."
Mom and I just laughed. Luke and Logan looked at each other, and rolled their eyes.
When lunch was over, my mom and Sookie went back to the inn, while Logan and I went to my house. We had two hours until we were supposed to be ready, we decided to watch TV. We quickly fell asleep. I awoke to a clicking noise, I opened my eyes and my mother was staring at me, with a smile plastered on her face.
"Tell me you didn't." I asked with pleading eyes.
"I had to, you both looked so cute." She said holding up the camera.
"Whatever, so what are you wearing tonight?"
"I was thinking my little black dress, and my red pumps."
"Cute!"
"What about you Hun?"
"I was thinking my baby blue dress, with wide sandals."
"Sounds good, okay I guess we should start we have about an hour before he comes and gets us." My mom said walking upstairs.
As I got my dress on, my door opened.
"Hey sleepy head," I told Logan has he walked in.
"You look very beautiful Ace."
"Thanks, are you getting ready?"
"That was the plan."
I went to do my hair. When I was done, I started looking for my shoes, as Logan came out of my room.
"You clean up nice," I told him.
"Thanks you look pretty good yourself Ace."
"Mom, you almost ready?"
"Yeah, what about you?"
"Almost, I can't find my shoes."
"Did you look in the oven kiddo?"
"First place I checked."
"Excuse me, did you say oven?" Logan asked puzzled.
"Yeah, they were wet, so we put them in there to dry. I also looked in the microwave, the porch, in the bathroom, and on the stairs."
"There not up here, sorry hon."
"Ace, did you look in your closet?"
"No, but to humor you I will." I walked in and looked, and sure enough they were sitting in the front.
"Uh" I said walking out.
"What is it Rory?" My mom asked coming downstairs.
"They were in the closet."
"Really?"
"Yeah"
"Huh," we said in unison.
"What a coincidence," Logan said a smirk playing across his face. I slapped him playfully. About that time Luke walked in.
"You guys ready" Luke asked
"Yeah," my mom and I said at the same time. The phone started ringing.
"'Lo," My mom said answering the phone.
"Loralei, it's your mother."
"Oh, hi mom. Can I call you back; I am on my way out the door."
"No, I would like to know what was wrong last night."
"Oh, um, Lane thought that Zach had broken up with her, but it is all good now."
"Is that all?"
"Yeah"
"You left dinner because Lane thought that her boyfriend had broken up with her."
"That's what I said."
"Loralei now is not the time for your comments. Now I must be going, see you Friday."
"Okay bye."
"Who was that?" I asked knowing full well who it was.
"Adolph." My mom replied rolling her eyes.
"Was she mad?"
"She thought it was a terrible reason to leave dinner, good thing she didn't know the real reason."
"Yeah, she would kill Logan."
"Me, why me?" Logan asked piping in.
"Because you wanted Rory here, so we would just play stupid like we didn't know anything."
"Oh, thanks. Good to know how I am appreciated here." Logan said
"Sorry to break up your party, but is everyone ready to go?" Luke asked.
"Yeah, let's go." I said becoming very excited on the inside.
