Just a few more days until the big night! Does everybody have their costumes and their counterparts? I'm heading on my own, and from what I've seen this is going to be the perfect party to hide and observe!
Speedster spotted with a certain sophomore who we all know he has a taste for. I'm still not convinced that she's some kind of replacement.
Preppy tutor seen leaving a costume shop with two bags. One for her, one for her boy we assume. So cute.
Kitty Cat seen with her possible boy. I still can't get the 411 on those 2. Does anyone know?
"What's that?" Adam said raising his eyebrows as he looked at the long grey coat Annie had just handed him.
"It's your costume for this weekend of course," she said.
"And what am I supposed to be?" He asked.
"Well, we're not anyone specifically," she laughed, "but I found this gorgeous regency style dress which made me feel just like a Jane Austen character so you're wearing the same time period."
"Ah," he nodded. "I see."
"Hey, be grateful," she said. "I saw Monique while I was picking that up and I believe Portman may have to wear tights."
"That man pays very highly for his pleasure," Adam laughed. Annie smiled. "You didn't come by just for this did you?" He asked putting his arms around her waist and kissing her.
"Of course not," she smiled. "You have a test tomorrow." He groaned. "I let you slack off all weekend." She pulled her books out of her back pack.
"I wasn't slacking off," he frowned. "I thought you liked it."
"I'm sorry baby," she kissed him. "I did like it. But we didn't study." He groaned. "I'm not going back to New York satisfied unless you have at least a B on all of your finals." He stared at her. "Get your notes out," she said. He sighed and sat down at his desk. "Good boy."
Tammy walked quickly from the rink towards the dorms. She absolutely hated the Minnesota winters, especially because she was stuck there. At least when she was living in Switzerland, she, Monique and their friend Mariana used to take trains to the Riviera on their days off to escape the cold. She smiled approaching a coffee cart seeing Charlie waiting.
"Hey you," she said, realizing too late that there was flirtation in her voice.
"Hey," he smiled. "What are you doing out?"
"Just got out of practice," she shrugged. "What about you?"
"Getting coffee," he said. She nodded.
"Where's Carlyle?" She asked.
"Hard at work for tomorrow night's festivities," he rolled his eyes. "She's been weird lately."
"Carlyle?" Tammy gasped. "Never!" He laughed.
"Weirder than usual," he said. She nodded. "You've been off the radar for a bit."
"Fulton and I have been babysitting," she said. He laughed. "It's the least I can do for Julie after last year, you know?"
"Sure," he said. "It must be hard though, hanging out with her."
"Not so much," Tammy said. "I mean, she's an old friend. I've been out of shape for the past year or so, so sometimes I have trouble keeping up with her." Charlie wasn't sure if she was talking about figure skating or about partying. "It's nice to speak French again. I missed it." He nodded. "So, what are you and Carlyle going to the dance as?"
"She's doing the Southern Belle thing," he shrugged. "I'm a Union Soldier."
"Nice," she nodded.
"What about you?" He asked.
"You'll just have to wait and see won't you?" She giggled. "Bye Charlie." He smiled. She'd definitely been flirting.
Julie sat on a couch watching a movie with Pierce. He was positioned squarely on the other end of the couch. She looked at him and sighed loudly.
"Something wrong?" He asked, one eyebrow cocked sarcastically.
"No," she said. "I'm just so sick of Annie and Tammy talking about the dance."
"Oh yeah," he nodded. "Are you going?"
"God no," she shook her head, "so lame." She started picking at her fingernails. He looked at her.
"Do you want me to take you?" He asked. She looked at him. "Do you?"
"Would you hate it?" She asked. "I know it's not your kind of thing, but all my friends are going, and it's kind of off beat and cool."
"Julie, I'll take you to a dance," he laughed. "I would have asked you but you've been all into avoiding your friends and hanging out with me lately." She smiled.
"Well, I like you," she said simply. He smiled.
"Yeah, I like you too," he said.
"So, there's not going to be any electric lighting?" Connie asked. Carlyle shook her head and giggled.
"All candles," she said. "And a fire there," she pointed to the large fireplace. "Sexy, right?"
"That's one word for it," Connie said. "Dangerous is another." Carlyle laughed. "So, what is my costume, exactly? I got it, but,"
"You're a twenties starlet," Carlyle said. "With your complexion it was a no brainer." Connie laughed. "Putting Guy in the tux wasn't a clue?"
"I figured it was something like that," Connie shrugged. "Black mask?"
"Of course," Carlyle said. "You'll look crazy hot." Connie nodded. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Connie said. "I've just been thinking about Luis lately. He's sort of dating someone, or as much as he does, you know?"
"Not Emily?" Carlyle said, folding a table cloth.
"No," she shook her head. "You remember Jen, right?" Carlyle nodded. "He spends a lot more time with her than with the rest of his girls."
"Are you jealous?" Carlyle teased.
"Not really," Connie sighed. "I just hope she can give him what he needs, you know?"
"Mm," Luis smiled as Jen cooed and cuddled into him. "That was nice."
"It was nice, wasn't it?" He smirked and kissed her neck. She giggled. "Do you have something little for me to slip off for the dance?"
"I didn't realize you were taking me," she said. "I thought you might be taking Emily, or one of the other girls."
"No, I'm taking you," he said. "You're my favorite, you know that." She giggled. "Don't tell."
"Our secret," she nodded and they kissed again. "What were you thinking I should wear?"
"Mm, like I said, little," he ran his hands onto her hips. "Maybe like a Roman slave girl."
"Naughty boy," she said and kissed him and he rolled on top of her. "Mm, all hail Caesar." He laughed.
Hiding our faces in the next few days, you know how I love to sit back and watch! What's going to happen?
Keep Reviewing!
