In his room, Josh's game of G-Force with Andy and Katie was coming to an end. Once again, the three of them had played well as a team and defeated their opponents.
"I think that's going to have to be it for me," Josh said. "I don't have time for another game. I'm scheduled to work this afternoon at the Rack."
Andy said, "Katie, Josh said he was taking you to the dance last night. Did he make a spectacle of himself as usual?"
"I think he took both of us," Katie said. "He is quite an enthusiastic dancer. He's hard to keep up with."
Josh objected, "I do not make a spectacle of myself, I just show people how it's done."
"I had a good time," Katie said. "Look, I'll get off and let the two of you talk. I can bring my homework down to the Rack and work on it this afternoon. I'll see you then Josh. Bye Andy." Katie signed off.
"I have time for a short video chat," Josh said. "Do you?"
"Sure," Andy agreed, and in a moment the two of them were looking at each other. "What did Katie mean when she said 'he took both of us'?"
Josh looked embarrassed, "Sometimes, when things get romantic, I hold back. She knows it's because of how I feel about you. She can tell when I'm thinking about you. It's all right to have fun but when it starts to go beyond that, I feel like I'm cheating on you."
"That's ridiculous," Andy objected. "I told you to take her out. I picked her especially for you. That's not cheating."
"It's not you, either," Josh said.
Andy smiled at him, "What am I going to do with you?"
"Nothing physical, that's for sure," Josh said in frustration. "So how isCleveland?"
"I'm not feeling the love yet," Andy's expression became somewhat down. "I'm new in the School and there aren't a lot of people who appreciate my style."
"You do have a style all your own," Josh said.
"Well it went over better in Seattle than in does in Cleveland," Andy sighed. "My mothers aren't finding it as welcoming to the two mothers concept either. They seem to be less evolved in Cleveland."
"So you should come back to Seattle," Josh suggested.
"Not a chance," Andy shook her head. "My mother has been waiting for a long time to run her own department and implement her own vision. This job gives her the chance to do that and she'll put up with anything to be able to do that. I'm stuck here for the next two years until college."
"Two years," Josh took in a breath and blew it out slowly, "That's a lot of G-Force."
"Don't give up on Katie," Andy encouraged.
"Don't give up on me," Josh protested. "I do have to go. Can we talk after dinner?"
Andy smiled, "Of course, it will be bedtime here. I'll probably be dressed for bed when you call." She disconnected leaving Josh smiling at the screen.
