Rachel sat across from Gar at the table. He pushed his burger aside, "It disgusts me that all they serve is meat," he sighed at the thought of people devouring the helpless animals.

She hid her lunch box that held the turkey sand which she prepared this morning, "I know, it's gross…"

"Hey," Terra greeting sitting next to Gar.

"Hey," Gar responded.

"Hi," Rachel growled.

"Anyways, I'm not staying long, I was just wondering if you had a date to the prom yet?"

"Actually, I don't," he sent Rachel a sideways glance and a cheeky smirk.

"Cool, so do you-"

"Want to be my date?" Rachel finished. Gar and Terra looked up at her. Both of them gaping.

"What?" Terra grumbled.

"Do you, Gar Logan, want to be my, Rachel Roth's, date to the junior prom?"

"Yes!" He replied excitedly standing and doing a quick victory dance, "I'd love too!" He grinned ear to ear and ran to find Vic and Richard. Dear, God. What have I done?

"But, b-but…"

Rachel smirked, raising one eyebrow, "What was it you were going to say?"

Terra frowned, "Bitch."

"Shouldn't you be finding a date for the prom? I believe to recall that you don't have one…" Rachel was content now. She wasn't sure when this random hatred for Terra came along, or when they became enemies, but she was sure it had to do something with Gar.

"You knew I was going to ask him," she stated.

"And you know he's my territory. Back off, Terra. You took too long, now he's my date. Get your own."

Terra sighed and stood up, "You'll regret this."

Probably. she thought, standing as well. but right now, all I regret is not picking out my dress earlier. She then took out her phone and texted Tony.


Rachel: Just asked Gar, he sed yes

Tony: OMG, haha there was no doubt, when r we gonna find a dress?

Rachel: Uhm, now? I wouldn't mind missing math class.

Tony: who would? Ok so meet me in the parking lot? I'll grab Vic's car and we'll head out.

Rachel: Yeah, he'll go for that *rolls eyes*

Tony: We won't tell him, and he has football practice today. Besides, I have a learners permit!

Rachel: Fine, fine w/e, haha since wenn do I care about vic anyways?


Rachel came out of the dressing room wearing the short, spaghetti strapped, white with black dotted dress.

"You look fantastic!" Tony commented.

"I look like a cow." She turned and walked back into the dressing room.

"Rachel, we've been at this for hours! Can you find something hot so we can leave?"

"It really isn't that easy," She called from in the dressing room.

"I'll go get you another."

Tony returned with a dress in her hand, she threw it over the dressing room door.

"Purple?" Rachel asked disdained.

"Yes, and I suggest you put it on or I'll have to put it on you."

"Understood: putting dress on."

A minute or two later, she came out of the dressing room, wearing the dress Tony had chosen.

Tony gaped. Rachel turned in the mirror, "I hate you." she said, "The one time I tell you to find me a dress, after hours of searching, you find the perfect one."

She stood there taking in the reflection in the mirror. The short, strapless, black dress hung three inches above her knee. It was black satin, and the skirt was lavender and had a black net over the top. It had a lavender belt around the waist too. It framed her petite figure perfectly.

"O-M-G, Rachel, I think I may be slightly attracted to you right now…" Argent stated.

Rachel laughed and hit Tony's forehead with her palm. "I'm sure. Now all we need are shoes," she told her, then slid back into the dressing room. Tony heard the zipper of the dress as she waited patiently for her friend. Her phone vibrated and she looked down, suddenly hit with regret. A text.


Victor Stone: Hey, wanna chill? Football practice is canceled and the gang is going out for pizza to celebrate Gar's prom date.

Tony: Oh practice is canceled? Why?

Victor Stone: It's raining. Good thing I put the roof up

Tony: huh?

Victor Stone: On my baby! (my car)


Shit, she thought to herself, running out of the store. She ran outside only to see the top of the car down and Vic's car filling with water. Her jaw dropped. Shoes will have to wait.

Tony: Oh, ok. So what are u doin right now?

Victor Stone: Heading to my car, I just told u we're getting pizza!

Tony: I'm with Dr. Lynch. Wait in room 007 for me! I need a ride!

Gotta stall, cannot let him see the car missing.

Victor Stone: Okay fine

Tony: Thnx! Luv ya!

Victor Stone: mmmhmmm

She weaved through the crowd of people. When she ran into the store to see Rachel checking out. The cashier put the dress in the bag and Rachel snatched it and ran to Tony.

"What's wrong, and why are you wet?"

"It's raining, practice is canceled, and Vic's car is now a pool!"

She gaped. Tony continued, "Please tell me you have a plan!"

"Uhm, I'm just hearing about this right now, why would I have a plan?"

"Because it's YOUR dress and YOUR date!"

"YOU were the one with the 'bright' idea to take the car!"

"You were the one with the 'bright' idea to use my 'bright' idea!"

"Fighting is not going to help!" Rachel clarified. She sighed, "We're going to park Vic's car at the school, then we are going to act simply like nothing happened. If he asks say nothing."

Tony nodded.


They pulled up to the school, parked in Vic's spot, and left the roof down. They ran into the school and made their way to the class room.

"Wait!" Tony stopped her.

"What?"

"You weren't invited…"

Rachel sighed, "Great way to make me feel like a friend."

"Well, they're kinda celebrating that you asked Garfield," Tony explained.

"Ok, understood, just make sure to get the keys in his backpack.

"Kay," she replied, hugging her friend.

They separated, and Tony ran into the room to see them sitting on desks.

"What were you doing outside?" Vic asked looking at the girl. Her black hair, with the red tips, was soaked. Along with her tight, skinny jeans, and red tank top.

"Uhhhm, uhhhhh, I was- In the science building, so I had to run through the yard to get here."

"Oh, okay," Vic accepted the lie with a smile.

"Your back pack is un-zippered," she stated walking behind him and swiftly dropping his keys into the bottom pouch and zippering it.

"Thanks," he said slightly suspicious, "Come on let's go."

When they got outside, the football player took one look at his car and dropped to his knees, "MY BABY!" he cried out into the rain. "I remember putting the top up! How'd this happen?"

"What a bloody shame," Argent commented, putting one hand on his shoulder. Feeling guilty she said, "I'd be happy to pitch in with damage repair…"

Richard linked his arm around Kori, "Me too."

Vic just sobbed, "WHY?" he screamed. Tony took a step back and leaned over to Gar, "Should we walk away, or stand here, or…?"

"Uhm, I'm not sure…"

"I can call a car to come pick us up," Dick suggested. Vic was at his car rolling the roof up.

"Please do," Tony told him.


They sat around the table, "I still can't believe you drove your car here," Kori told Vic.

"I couldn't leave my baby."

"Riiiight. Anyways, So Gar, tell us about it." Richard urged the blonde.

Argent looked down at her cell phone. One new text.

Rachel: Uhm, please tell me you took the dress in…

Tony: No, did you?

Rachel: No! It's in his trunk!

Tony: Ok, well I can't get it, but I can distract them, while you get it.

Rachel: Idk where you are! I wasn't invited, remember?

Tony: Pizza hut on Center St.

Rachel: I can get there, just distract them.

She looked over at Garfield. He was sitting with his back to the window, across the table from her, which means there was a clear view of the window for whoever was looking at him. About ten minutes into his story, Tony turned her attention to her cell phone.

Rachel: Right around the block.

"Guys!" she interrupted. Everyone snapped around to look at her, "I juuuust… won … uhhh…concert tickets in a … contest… a texting contest?"

"Really?" they all gaped, "How many?"

"Four."

"What band?" Vic asked.

"Uhhhhh… that band… the ugh… Above the Law," she answered, naming a hot band they all like.

"No way!" they all shouted simultaneously. Good, keep their attention. She thought to herself, watching Rachel ride b on her bike.


Rachel POV

I threw Tony a glance and she winked, telling me it was ok. I parked my bike by his car, and got out, admiring his blue 2006 mustang convertible. I went to open the trunk but it was locked. Not thinking it through, I walked into the pizza shop to grab Vic's keys.

"Hey, guys!" I said with a smile and a bit of enthusiasm.

"Hey, Rae, what are you doing here?" Vic asked.

"Picking up a pizza."

"Join us!"

"Uhm, sure," I replied, 'dropping' my cell phone. I crouched down and picked up my cell, along with the keys from his backpack. "I… have to…. Pee. I'll be right back," I said making my way toward the bathroom. I heard Richard's voice from behind me, "Well, thanks for sharing."

"No problem, Dick."

When I got into the pink tiled bathroom, I climbed on the sink and tried to crawl through the window. When I made it outside, I popped open the trunk, grabbed my bag, and made my way through the front entrance. Tony shot me a glare, sending me a text.

Tony: You went to the bathroom, remember?

Shit. I left and ran around the building to the bathroom window. I slid in, landing on my feet, only to turn and see a man peeing into the urinal. I turned to walk out of the men's room briskly, only to hear the guy shout, "AHHHHH!" and run out, zipping himself up on his way. I shrugged it off and walked out the door, hitting someone on the way out.

"Rae?" Richard asked, wide-eyed, "What were you doing in the men's room."

"No one you know," I answered, walking back to the table, leaving him with disbelieving eyes.

I sat down, "Back."

"Where'd you get that bag?" Gar asked.

"What bag?" I asked. He pointed to the bag I was holding. "OOOOOOh this bag! Yeah, I had this bag…" I lied.

"No you didn't" Vic said.

"Shut up," I replied. They just stared at me, "Well, it was fun but me, and Tony, have to go… do something else," I grabbed Tony's arm, "See you guys tomorrow."
