Once Joanie and I left the ice cream party, it was getting late. We did like these girls who won the contest. I had a feeling Fonzie did too since he used to be a ladies' man back when Joanie and I were kids. After the party was over, we all said good – night and the girls went to their hotel for the night. I watched as Richie and Lori Beth walked out of the studio to go home for bed for the night and Joanie and I did the same thing. Joanie offered to do the driving.
"Can I come?" Jenny asked.
"Sure," Joanie said.
Joanie looked at me.
"Is that okay?" Joanie asked.
"Yeah, whatever," I said, rolling my eyes.
I rolled my eyes in the other direction so Jenny wouldn't see me do it. Jenny let herself in the backseat of our car and we drove away in silence.
"I liked that blonde guy at the party. He was pretty handsome," Jenny said.
"What was his name again?" Joanie asked.
"I forget his name," Jenny said, "but I did like him. Maybe he will want me as a girlfriend."
"I won't go that far," I told Jenny, "maybe he has a girlfriend."
"I think Chachi's right," Joanie said, agreeing with me.
After that, we were quiet the rest of the way. Ten to fifteen minutes later, we arrived to Jenny's house. Joanie and I didn't get out so we stayed in the car and watched her get into the dark house. After Jenny was safely inside, Joanie drove away from the house. It took us a bit longer to get to our house since we don't live in the same neighborhood as Jenny did.
Once Joanie and I got to our driveway, Joanie parked into the garage and we unbuckled our seatbelts and walked out of the car and she locked the car door and I waited for Joanie so we could walk into the house together. The house was dark once we got into the house so Joanie and I turned the lights on into the kitchen.
"I'm going to bed," Joanie said.
"So am I, but I'll wait until you do," I said.
They have this rule it's ladies and children first. I was letting Joanie go first since she was a woman. I waited for about ten minutes or so, and then it was my turn to go to bed. I turned all the lights out that Joanie and I turned on and then I went to bed. Our bedroom was upstairs but we didn't share a bed since we aren't married and don't have children. We both have jobs, so that keeps us busy. She is a high school teacher while I am a private investigator working for my and Fonzie's niece in her law firm. It's the only job I can have since nobody else will want me and plus it's money. I am not working on any new cases at the moment since I cracked one case a couple weeks ago. After I got into my pajamas a few minutes later, I turned the lights out and Joanie and I said good – night and we hit the pillows and fell asleep.
