The Boarding School
Chapter 6- Party Prep and Crimping
The next day, the boys began part planning and Naboo called his familiar, Bollo. Vince was looking out of the window when Howard came up behind him and sighed.
"Vince, do you think that a party is such a good idea?" His voice was shaky and unsure; his last party was a disaster.
"Yeah, parties are well genius!" Vince smiled with such child like innocence. "I went to one before I got sent here, it had a bouncy castle. I bounced as high as my own head." Vince smiled and gestured with his hand where he bounced to.
"As if you did." Howard said in a glum voice. He was never one for parties; he hadn't had a birthday party since he was three.
"I did, I swear on my own life that I did." Vince again was filled with simple enthusiasm and his eyes were almost fluorescent. "Have you ever crimped?" Howard looked up, he did crimp but his parents didn't like it. "I crimp all the time but no one else gets it."
"I crimp." Howard smiled and burst into a crimp. "Bouncy, Bouncy, ooh such a good time. Bouncy, Bouncy, shoes all in a line. Bouncy, Bouncy, everybody summersault. Summersault, summertime, everybody sing along. Bouncy, Bouncy, ooh such a good time. Bouncy, Bouncy ooh, Bouncy, Bouncy ooh! Every time I bounce, I feel I touch the sky!" Vince joined in half way through and smiled, Naboo staring at them in shock.
"Can you two keep it down? I'm trying to listen to Peacock Dreams." Howard smiled at the short one and nodded.
"Sorry Naboo." He finally said and looked at Vince. "Have you heard the twisty one?" Vince nodded and again they broke into a crimp with actions.
"This is unbelievable, I love crimping! I wrote a crimp book." Vince smiled and pulled it out of his bag. "See, its thirty pages so far but some pages have got my scribbles on. I drew this the other day. That's me, you and Naboo." The drawing was quite good and detailed.
"Where's my face?" Howard asked, pointing to the drawing of him.
"There." Vince smiled and put his finger over Howard's.
"That is not my face sir. My face has eyes and a nose and a mouth that's nothing, just a blob on a suit." Howard's voice was annoyed and hurt.
"I draw what I see." Vince smiled and sighed. "Alright, I'll try and draw a proper one but I'm not promising anything okay?" Howard nodded and smiled, he had the suit right. It was a good drawing of Naboo, very life-like and he had done his hair perfectly. "But what'ya think?" Vince asked and looked at him through hopeful eyes.
"It's good. You've drawn Naboo's turban right." Howard smiled and looked from the drawing to the turban and back again. "Yeah, perfect." Vince was now grinning with a toothy smile.
"Really? Oh thanks Howard. Now about this party, there'll be girls there. You could use a girlfriend right? Well there you go, you'd definitely pull if you say the right things and have the right look." Howard nodded and smiled.
"Well when you put it like that… okay then fine." He sighed, dropping his gaze to the floor.
"Right, cheers Howard this'll be well genius." Vince sighed and picked up a pink light. "Help me put this up." He smiled, Howard taking the light from him and standing on the bed. When they were all set up, they had yellow lights, pink lights, red lights and purple lights along with a disco ball; they began to decorate the room. Howard was unsure as to how they had managed to acquire so many lights but Vince did know a club director. Naboo was watching the window for the board of Shaman who were bringing a fold-away DJ booth and albums to play. "Naboo, me and Howard are going to sneak into the kitchen and cook up some food okay?" Naboo silently nodded and the two boys sauntered out of the room.
"Right so what are we making?" Howard asked and pulled out an old cookbook.
"Nothing you'll find in there. Check this out." Vince pulled a book from his bag which was covered in glitter and glowing stars. "Electro-food!" Vince smiled and began to gather ingredients. "Right, electric pancakes first." The two were crimping the pancake crimp almost silently so they could be unnoticed. Howard was sieving flower when Vince flicked some at him and he flicked some back. By the end of the cooking lesson, they were both drenched head-toe with flower so they put the ingredients back, cleaned up and hauled the food away without being noticed. Their room was filled with strange people, one who was a mere head with strange looking things coming from it. Another was a rather dark looking man with a black feathered cloak and a matching hat who was called Saboo. They were the DJ's and the rest just guests. The room looked like a VIP club and Vince smiled and nodded before fixing up a buffet table and smiling.
"Send 'em in." He smiled and the door opened, in flooded the other kids. Vince was sneaking some vodka into the bowl whilst Howard sat in the corner giving himself a Chinese burn. He really liked Vince, he had become something of a best friend but he had gotten him into nothing but trouble since he had arrived. "Alright Howard, what are you doing?" Vince took hold of Howard's hand and eased it away from his wrist. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah." Howard sighed and looked up at the ceiling, refusing to meet Vince's confused and worried eyes.
