I haven't updated this story EVER. I really miss it too, it's just that I've been busy with my other 3 mult-chaps. But here's the third chapter :)

Lola and Vince

Vince might be able to say that he had a pretty memorable prom night. He and his girlfriend were expected to be there ahead of time, but he had insisted on taking her to Pete and Sam's, their favorite restaurant near PCA. That was pretty much the memorable part.

Though, the thing was, they might have been able to make it. If it weren't for a certain taxi driver who couldn't even carry out the task of driving two and a half miles to the prom. But nooo, instead, he just decided to sign up for community college.

"So... what's the story behind you and Lola missing prom?" Zoey questioned Vince, desperate to move the conversation along so they wouldn't have to dwell on what happened between her and Chase.

Vince closed his eyes, picturing the overweight taxi driver who was more concerned with his lollipop than his job.

"Yeah, um, there was some stupid taxi driver," he said.

"What?" Logan asked. Apparently the eight words that made up the sentence that Vince had just said weren't enough for his comprehension.

Just then, Lola returned from the bathroom, looking angry. "I just saw James' date in the bathroom. And I can't believe what a witch she is! I can't believe he's dating her now!"

"Who's James?" Chase asked her, sounding like he picked up a slight British accent.

Lola glanced at Zoey, no shook her head, before responding. "Uh, just a friend. He's Logan's and Michael's new roommate," she replied, a little too quickly.

"Um, okay," Chase looked a bit confused, but he went along with it.

Meanwhile, Logan and Michael internally groaned. They both shared the hope that the girls could inform Chase of who James' -ex was, but apparently, they were trying to avoid the topic tonight.

"So, Vince, what about the 'stupid taxi driver'?," Quinn continued from their previous topic of conversation.

Lola sat down next to her boyfriend, and pecked him on the lips before answering (which made everyone else besides Chase, Vince, and her roll their eyes- she was gone for only two minutes, wasn't she?)

"Well," Vince said, "we decided to go to Pete and Sam's for dinner. I think you were there when we decided that, even," Quinn nodded in agreement. "So, after dinner, we were headed on our way here-"

"But the idiotic taxi driver was on the phone with his nagging wife," Lola dramatically rolled her eyes. She didn't say anything else, as though the rest of her friends should know what had happened next.

Zoey's eyebrows furrowed, as she was nonplussed at what Lola had just said. "And...?"

"And, his wife apparently convinced him to go to community college in the middle of him getting us to PCA," Vince added along to the drama queen's story. "So he got out of the car, threw away the keys, and walked off to go sign up," he sighed.

The table erupted in laughter. "That's... HA!... hilarious," Michael panted, clutching his sides. "He-pant-went-pant-to-pant-comm-pant-unity-pant-college? HA!" he laughed hysterically.

Lisa, who had stopped chuckling first, asked the only couple at the table who wasn't laughing, "So what happened next?" Unfortunately, Michael broke out into a series of multiple giggles, shaking the entire table, which was loaded with yellowtail and eel.

"Maybe you should go to the bathroom and calm down, Michael," Lisa patted his arm.

"Oka-HA!-okay," he was still laughing on the way there.

"And then the driver left us to look for the keys ourselves," Lola replied, in response to Lisa's unanswered question.

"But, of course, we didn't find it," Vince added. "We found a guitar... and a rat," he along with Lola shuddered at the memory. The rest of the table grimaced at the scene that they could only imagine.

"It was sooo..." Lola trailed off.

"Disgusting!" Vince finished for her.

Zoey nodded, then smiled. What was it, with couples finishing each other's sentences tonight?

"So, we ended up walking. Oh, and on our way there, we ran into Firewire, and some of his buddies," Lola spoke. Logan snorted at this, and Quinn nudged him with her elbow.

"Yeah, and they thought the world was ending, or something," this time, Logan broke out into full-scale laughter, and was forced to join Michael in the bathroom.

"And when we told them it wasn't, they decided they all wanted to take Zoey with them to the prom, since she was ditching," Lola gave a tiny smile at her friend, then Chase, who's face was twisted somewhere between jealousy and amusement.

"And, we just followed them to prom," Vince concluded their long-winded story.

Just then, Logan and Michael returned from the restroom.

"You guys were gone a long time," Quinn remarked as the two boys took their seats.

"Yeah, Michael was just telling me about how he learned to drive a stickshift. Something about... a guy named Mr. Takato?" Logan looked at Michael.

Lisa groaned. "No, I'm telling you, he DOESN'T EXIST. You must have watched online tutorials, or something," she said.

"Do online tutorials show you how to stomp the grapes, or stir the tuna, Lisa?" Michael questioned, raising his eyebrows teasingly.

The rest of their friends leaned forward in anticipation of the next story they'd be hearing.

Yeah, not much romance, but I still liked the little plot with Lola and Vince. They're cute together :) Plus, I added some Chase/Zoey, and a little Logan/Quinn [if you squint really hard].

Thanks for reading :] (sorry I forgot about this story!)
