056 Tegan Goes to Prom… Kind Of (08-29-13)
Told by Tegan.
“Thanks sis! I found the curling iron and it looks great, and the full-length mirror really helped….. Omigod, you’re with Van Jonso? That’s awesome!…. Okay, have fun on the rest of your sing-o-grams.”
“Hi Kam…. Oh, you’re working? Sorry to bother you on your cell.”
‘Hello. You have reached the modest residence of Jaxen and Kam. We’re not home right now but please leave us a message and we’ll consider calling you back if we feel like it.’
“Wow, what a weird message. Hmmm… who else?”
“No, Tristan does not want to talk to you. GO AWAY!”
Ugh! I swear that actually was Tristan. I knew I shouldn’t have tried him. What a creep!
Man, I love Jemma’s room. I wish I had a room like this. I should just stay here instead of going to that stupid grad anyway.
I mean, what’s the point. I don’t even have a date, because I forgot the day and now everyone is busy. At least Mom got me a pretty dress.
Might as well try to be excited!
“Hello, Miss Tegan.”
“Oh hey Aubrey.”
“That’s a lovely outfit, Miss Tegan. Who is escorting you to the dance?”
“Thanks. Just the cab driver, Aubrey.”
“What a shame, Miss Tegan! I gather there are many nice boys out there who would love to be your escort.”
“Naw. From what I’ve seen with my sister, boys are nothing but trouble. I want them to stay far away.”
It’s not like I don’t like boys, I told Aubrey. I did like Tristan at first — but he’s been even more of a jerk since he wrote me that nasty letter.
The new guy Kam Baker had seemed pretty okay, that time he and Jaxen Miles invited me and Lulu over. But I wasn’t sure if he liked me or Lulu, or if Lulu liked him or Jaxen or whatever…
And Jaxen was a bit of a gawker. It kinda made me uncomfortable.
Oh yeah, and I went on that date with Armando Martin, but he was boring as heck.
“So yeah. Whatevs, Aubrey. I’m sure I’ll find someone to dance with.”
“Okay Miss Tegan. Have fun, and remember curfew.”
I needed my caffeine fix though, so I decided to stop for an energy drink at Mick’s because Mom wasn’t around to make me one and the coffee machine took too long.
I decided to give Armando a call on the way. “What, you already got a date?? Well, fine then!”
I hate boys.
Wow, looka that guy.
Well, helloooooooo sexy bartender!
Holy hottie. What did I just say about hating boys? Why yes, I hate boys, but this folks, is a MAN. A boy-man!
“One lemonade Rockstar coming up, Miss.”
Wow, he juggles those drinks almost as good as my Mom does.
“So, uhh… I hear we might be able to travel through time soon. And did you know there may be proof that the universe might actually be a computer simulation, like in the Matrix?”
I’m not sure if he’s digging what I’m putting out here.
I need to think of a way to get him off the bar to have a stimulating conversation with him and find out his name. Hmm…
“If I could just sneak a shot of him with the backwards camera. Dang it, look this way, cute bartender!”
“There ya go, thank ya!”
Texting: ‘Hey Mom. Here at Micks on way 2 prom. Bartending sux here, I think you should come down n show em how its done.’
Yes! Jemma was right. Mom will always come to the rescue if I just butter her up a little.
“Hi Mom!”
“Hi, my name’s Tegan.”
“Hi, I’m Rody.”
“Yeah, that’s my mom. She’s always pregnant so it doesn’t matter that she’s at the bar.”
We didn’t get to chat much because Mom got all distracted signing autographs for people, so Rody had to get back on the bar.
It was kinda hopping at that point and I felt kinda weird among all these old people. So I just decided to head to prom.
About an hour later… late for prom, early leaving…
Yes! He’s still here!
“Hey. You’re back.”
“Yeah there were way too many lights, I felt like I was on a spaceship.”
“The decorations were like, WHOA! Am I under the sea or something?”
“And the llama mascot dude looked like he had three eyes.”
“Or was it just me??”
“Oh crap, I should probably get home, it’s late.”
Oh crap. Did Tegan say too much? And what was in that drink?
~//~
Aww poor Tegan. WHY ARE ALL THESE BOYS GIVING THESE BEAUTIFUL WATLEY GIRLS SUCH A HARD TIME?!!
Okay I’m good now. Hehe I love the way Aubrey talks.
hahaha THIS IS A MAN!
He probably would find her intelligence a little intimidating.
SIRUS!!! ❤
Haha I needed her to say something philosophical to the bartender and I had just been reading an article on Yahoo about the universe being a computer. LOL. I imagined Aubrey being pretty verbose and gentlemanly. Ugh, I know – boys are stupid!!!!!! (Except Sirus 🙂 🙂 )
LOL! I liked that little thing about the computer simulated universe. 😉 Rody is a cutie pie. I wonder if he’ll be awesome… 🙂
Haha thanks I was reading an article about that today. We’ll have to see about Rody when Tegan ages up!
Tegan is looking beautiful. I am surprised she is having so much trouble with the guys. Though I think she has her eyes on a fine looking guy.
Naw it’s not trouble with the guys — she just wasn’t all that interested til now, now that she needs to find a date for the prom! Tristan is a weirdo so he doesn’t count anyway. 😉
So that is how it is working out, makes sense.
Aww The boys should have been calling her for dates, not the other way around! Rody looks promising, he seems pretty nice. Lol Kam is a gawker…it’s been a while since he’s been out of the bin
Haha yes I guess it has been a while. 🙂 I have many more pics of him staring and taking pics of the Watley girls, including Momma!
Oh you mustve meant Jaxen? That is who I was referring to.
Oh yeah lol, I misread! Its true for both of them though!
Dunno why I’m anon…? On my phone
I was having problems logging on to comment on my phone too. Stupid.. every time someone fixes something – breaks something else!!
Tegan is gorgeous! Hope her and Rody will hit it off :D.
Prom is so overrated. Tegan was smart to spend most of her time with the cute bartender.
