Penny arrived at the hop in the middle of the song 'Ladies' Choice." Link was singing and I could not help but think that soon he would be mine and not Amber's. I could tell that I would not be seen if I danced in the back and it was very crowded.

"It's packed kind of tight in here," I commented to Penny.

"Okay, do you want me to go ahead of you and push people out of the way?" she asked in that charmingly stupid way that only she could pull off. Just then, I saw Seaweed and I thought of a great plan. I began to push people out of my way, until I was right in front of Seaweed, who was luckily on the edge of the tape segregating us.

"Hey, Seaweed. Do you want to dance Peyton Place for Corny?" I asked, as I still danced along to "Ladies' Choice." I smiled at Seaweed. He really was a nice boy. My heart belonged to Link, but then I began to think of how Penny would like him. I decided that I would set the two of them up, as soon as I got the chance.

"No, you've got to dance with your crowd and I have got to dance with mine," Seaweed responded with a sad look in his eyes.

"But why?" I asked. I was all for desegregation. Everyone, I felt, was equal.

"That is just the way that things are." Seaweed looked into my face. "But, I will tell you what. You can borrow it for tonight!"

"Aww, thanks Seaweed." The two of us hugged and I once again pushed my way through the people who were dancing, this time to an open space. I saw that Amber was glaring at me from behind, but I didn't care. I was going to soon be Link's girlfriend, and even sooner be on the Corny Collin's Show.

Immediately after the dance ended, Corny came up to me. "So, what would you say to being on the Corny Collin's Show." He ran his hand through his hair. "It's hosted by, 'Yours Truly', after all."

The next thing that I knew, I was dancing "Peyton Place" on television along with the rest of the cast of the Corny Collin's Show. I was in absolute heaven.

Penny had promised me that she would make sure that my parents were watching and I knew that she would keep her promise.

Amber sang "The New Girl in Town" and I couldn't help but imagine that they were talking about me. Link and I would soon be together. We just had to be! We had to!
